Frori the .Wit io mil Intelligencer of July 18. m FROM THE SOUTH. We learn that Major General Scott and bis staff returned to Columbus, in Georgia, on Tues,v ml the next dav Major General Sanford, o

the Militia, w ith a part of the Georgia Troops. (i The Indians fthose who were inenuiy or iuu uu t captured) were departing on thfiir journey of migration westward, and the troops w ere to be paid off and discharged. From Fort Mitchell, on the Saturday preceeding, the contractors for lue removal of the Creeks had stai ted sixteen hundred Indians, men, women and children, for Arkansas. "The hostile warriors, hand-cuffed, marching in double file a long train of wagons conveying the children, and such of the old women as were unable to walk, followed in their wake." The following additional particulars are taken from thi Georgia Courier: Avui-sTA, July 11. The Indians who committed the murders in Baker county, have been overtaken by Col. Beall, in thp. Chickasahatchee swamp, in that county, and 8 ..r 10 killed, and 20 or 30 wounded. They are at ti-esent concealed in the swamp, said to be 2o rules long, and 3 or 4 miles w ide. The commandant has sent an express to Columbus for Paddy Carr and inn friendlv Indians, to u-rret them out, and 3000 catrid'es. " Gen. Scott hn's ordered to the scene of action the Columbus G-iarJs, Capt. I'rnuhart, Cadet Riflemen. Capt. Evans, the Artillery, Capt Lawhon, and ihe Mn sconce lilues, all under the command of .Major Hoxie. 1 hey left in the steam boats Metamora and Reindeer. Gen. Scott has established two military posts on il.ostMtre mad to Mout-rnnierv. one at Caldwell s or MrCIeflan. fifteen miles cast of Tuskegee, the oth er at Adams's or Elliot's, twelve miles from Columbus, and the troops will constantly traverse the road for the protection of the mail and travellers from the malignity of any straggling Indians. Capt. Garmany's company of mounted infantry had gone as far as Tuskegee to put the road in order. The Governor has demanded Jim Henry and other notorious offenders of (Jen. Jesup, for trial and punishment under our laws. The former had been previously consigned to the laws of Alabama, in which State he was. Major Mcintosh, at Fort Mitchel, has turned over eleven to a similar demand from Gov. Schley. CHARLESTON" Jk CINCINNATI HAIL. ROAD. A Convention of nearly 100 de legates from nine different State, mot at Knoxville,Tenn., Julv 1th, to consult with regard to measures for the prosecution of this magnificent enterprise. From the Correspondence of the Cincinnati Gazelle, we extract the following account of proceeding-. Knowii.i.u. July 0, 1S36. The Convention appointed a (Jrand Committee of -14, to prepare the business of the meeting. On this Committee from Ohio, are Dr. Drake, Mr. Thomas and Mr. Mansfield. The General Committee met on the fifth, and appointed four su!t-rommittccs,as follows: 1st. Committee on the Charter ami atnendmcnts, is composed of live distinguished Lawyers, of which Koherl Wickliffe is Chairman. 2d. Committee on Routes composed of nine members, of which Col. Islanding is Chairman, and Mr. Thomas a member. 3d. Committee on the advantages of the road, including commerce and statistics, of which Dr. Drake is Chairman, and Mr. Mansfield a member. 4th. Committee on ways and means, of which Gen. Ilavne is Chairman. Col. John Williams is Chairman of the General Committee, and the Sub-Committee arc now actively engaged in preparing business for the Convention to act upon. Knoxville, July 7. The sub Committees have reported-, and their reports were unanimously adopted by the Convention. 1. The Committee on Law reported in favor of accepting the charter, existing which is done. '2. The Committee on Routes report the results of the Surveys and Examinations of the Engineers, w ith an estimate of the cost of the work, and that a practical route for the hoad has been found Jrom Charleston to Cm cinnati; and the Convention have further resolved, that.it is inexpedient for them to j determine on particular routes; but, that all j papers and documents, in relation thereto, be ! reterrod to the fan-lcrl and Directors of the company, when formed. The result of t!o Surves and Examina tions of the Engineers determine that a loute; is practicable through the Blue Ridge, at thej Headwaters oi me is road and irench liroad river; thente down Ihe French Broad; thence turning the Clinch mountains near Knoxville; thence pacing the Cumberland mountains, either by Wheeler's, or, the Cumberland Gap; thence to the waters of Cumberland River; thence, the concurring testimony of all, show a practicable route to Cincinnati. The estimated cost, is as follows, viz: From Charleston to Ashvillc, N, Carolina, To the mouth of Noli chuck v To the mouth of Elk, (00 miles) To Cincinnati, (UK) miles) Louitville Branch, Maysville Branch, $3,300,000 1,800,(X0 2.700,000 2,310,000 1,000,000!

The examination before the Committees, on the su!ject of trade, produce, manufactures, and connexions throughout the whole South, show a trade which must inevitably come upon it sufficient to make a Road of tw ice the cost, greatly profitable. Nothing is necessary, but a little hearty co-operation on the part of the districts interested, to procure the stock at once, and carry the plan into success ful operation. from th? Jfarrisbitrg- Chronicle, a Jackson paper. STATE RIGHTS TRIUMPHANT! THE SEW YORK FACTION PROSTRATE. We congratulate the Democratic paity,we congratulate the country, on the triumphant passage of the Depsite Bank bill. The measure is a most important and auspicious one. It has freed the countiy; it has destroyed the monster league of Ranks; it has rebuked the unholy and corrupt designs of the New York faction! Pennsylvania mav be proud of her agency in this matter. Her lofty and determined tone; the spirit manifested by her citizens; and the noble resolutions which passed her Legislation, breathing the very spirit of JchVrson could not be resisted. 1 lie cause of I'enns Ivania the cause of the State Rights Democracy the cause of public virtue and popular freedom, has prevailed. The unclean herd that follow in the train of the New York cabal, may now shrink hack to their noisome den in Albany. Penn sylvania spurns their shackles, abhors their corruption, and despises their impotence She is free, and so will remain. The passage of the Depositc Bankbill has shattered and destroyed the monster lkagi e of banks. No country ever witnessed a more dangerous or corrupt political engine. Posessed of hundreds of millions of Ranking capital; using the immense revenue of the United States, scattered over the whole ex tent of our territory; irresponsible, reckless, and unprincipled: swayed to the worst purposes by the worst men; and under the despotic control of a miscreant who was a British traitor during the war; a bankrupt fugitive since, and a black-leg gambler now it is not strange that the nation saw such an ingine erected against their liberties with affright and horror. Rut, thanks to Providence, and to the watchful guardians of liberties in Congress the MON5TEK IS OVERTHROWN. The Depositc Rill has checked the stockjobbing which disgraced the country, & beggared the people. With the control of the Deposit Ranks, the New York faction obtained any amount of credit they desired for gambling purposes; and by the same engine, raised and depressed stocks so as to facilitate their abominable and fraudulent transactions. By these means the faction plundered the public, and amassed for themselves princly fortunes. The Deposite Bill has put a stop to dishonest SPECULATION IN THE PUBLIC LANDS. It is distinctly ascertained, that the public rev enue has been loaned by the New York fac tion, to gamblers in public lands, who bought up the land, and then forced the poor and honest settler to pay them an immense ad vance on the original price. This system of plundering the people, of extorting money from ihe honest farmer, is at length forever prostrated. Jt is well known also, that men high in office the subservient tools of the New York faction have used the public moneys for private speculating and gambling purposes. All this is checked ! At a proper time, expositions will be made on this subject that will make the patriot's blood run cold in his veins, and force even the careless and in different to own that it is time, high time, that the curruptlon and abuses of the New York faction were rebuked and corrected. Some of our contemporaries speak of this as an Anti-Jackson triumph. It is nosuch thing. It is a Jackson triumph. We claim the glo ry for our parly. The bill was passed by Jackson votes by the votes of those determined to rescue the administration from the odious pol itics of N e w York. was the triumph of the JACKSON PARTV OVER THE NEW YORK FACTION. It is not the last blow which that unhallowed cabal will receive from Jackson hands. The friends of the Administration in and out of Congress are fully aroused and excited on this subject; they are determined to prostrate the New York fiction; and it will be prosit ated! Its arrogant assumption nfn Innllv mi. thority to control the w hole nation w ill not he uiouneu; us despotism will not be endured; ; : I ,. .

The money-changers are no longer our monarens: The New York faction strained every nerve against the passage ofthe Deposte Bill. a ne oiooe, viuany Argus, Kichmond Enquirer, and the whole kennel press of New xorKcaoai were out, loud-mouthed against it! Mark the result! Such is the pozcer oj the JYczc York fiction ! The triumph is a glolet it nerve evcrv virtuous dein-

Harrison and who is Gen. Harrison? 1 he son of one of the signers ofthe Decliration of Independence, who spent the greater part of his large fortune in redeeming the pledge he then gave of "his fortune life and sacred honor," to secure the liberties of his country.

Of the career of Gen. Harrison, 1 need notions of the New York faction, the parly was

speak the history ofthe west is his history. For forty years lie has been identilied witn its interest, its perils and its hopes. Universally beloved in the walks of peace, and distinguished in the field. During the late war he was longer in ac tive service than any other general officer; he was perhaps oftener in action than any one off hem, and never sustained a defeat." Will the Van Buren man who has read that go offand abuse Harrison again? If lie will, let him remember that in so doing he abuses Dick Johnson. The truth is, Harrison hardly had an enemy until his name was taken up by the people for the presidencj". At that moment 40,000 officeholders and their parasites, sprung upon him with the ferocity of so many hungary wolves. So much for the demon of party. If it possiple that Western People, for whom Harrison has devoted the last 40 years of his life with the determined fidelity and unshrinking firmness of a martyr can join in this unholy warfare t It cannot be. Foreign Intelligence. Sundry late arri vals from Europe furnish London papers to the first of June: but their contents arc tor the most part uninteresting. one the 30th of May, Lord Stanley gave notice, in the House of Commons, that he would, on the ensuing Wednesday, ask leave to introduce a bill for the conversion of tithe composition into rent charges, and for the better distribution of ecclesiastical revenues in Ireland. It was expected that this motion would give rise to warm and animated debates: and its result was considered uncertain. From Fiance there is little or nothing new. The Chamber of Deputies were enraged, at the latest dates, in the discussion of the budget forthellome Department ; and tranquility generally prevail ed throughout the country. In Spain, every thing appeared to be in confusion, owing to some difficulty w hich had arisen between the Queen Regent and the Ministry, and had resulted in the resignation of several of the members, whose places had been supplied by persons w ho did not seem to !c acceptable to the capital. A dissolution of the Cortes had also taken place. Another battle between the Carlists and the army under Gen. Evans, which had received strong reinforcements, was daily looked for, and expected to terminate in favor of Constitutionalists. LATER. Later arrivals from England, furnish London papers to the 11th of June; but they contain no news of an interesting character. On the 31st of May, the British Chancellor of the Exchequer introduced into the House of Commons a resolution, declaring in substance that it is expedient to introduce a bill to re move the civil disabilities of the Jews; which was agreed to. The promised motion of i Lord Stanley, for leave to bring in a bill for the conversion of tithe composition into rent charges in Ireland was negatived on the 3d of June, by a majority of 30 votes, after three days debate; and on the 11th, the amendments of the Lords to the Irish Municipal bill, were likewise rejected, after a long and interesting discussion, by a majority of SC. The committee of the French Chamber of Depu ties, to which had been referred the subject of laying a tax on Sugnr manufactured from the Beet root, made a report on the 28th of May, recommending a tax of ten francs per hund red pounds on the manufactured articles; but it was not expected that the report would be acted on during the present session. It ap pears that the British Legion, aided by a few English ships of war, succeeded in capturing the important seaport town and harbor of Pas sage, in the north of Spam, about the middle of May. No particulars of this affair arc however given in any of the papers which we have seen. There is nothing interesting from any other part of the Continent. Columbus Gazette. VAX Bl'REX IX PENNSYLVANIA. All parties look, with much interest, to the probable vote of the "Key stone State," at the Presidential election in November next, We have, for some time past, relying, it is true, upon our own sources o' information, been satisfied that Gen. Harrison would receive the electoral vote of that Slate. Wc have before our readers evidence from a Van Bu ren source to the same purport. It is well know

m that the Harrisburgh Croniclels one of followed by a gradually diminished rumbling blest and most prominent newspapers on noise. and slight tremor of the earth, both npide of Van Buren in the State of Penn- parently declining toward the Southwest du-

the a the side of V sylvania. The Chronicle was originally, and still remains, a sound Jackson paper. The situation of Parties in that State, or rather the Van Buren, has become so unfavorable, that the Chronicle has found it necessary to speak out, and to warn its friends that, unless they change their course, defeat is staring them in the face. It says, "the party is in peril" these are its own words. It sas, al so, "tJieparty is divided." and that our side is vniled. Speaking of Gen. Harrison, it says, 'His military career, his age, his long service his taintless character, and his present poverI ty, plead urgently for him with the inconside-

true friends of the democracy, who cry -peace!

peace! when thereis no peace'.' Tw party is in peril, and it is right that the people should know it to avert it. Wc have just passed through an unsucccsful campaign. Thanks to the insiduous elTthrown out of power The censure rests not with us. In that as in any other emergency, the Chronicle was atits post. The party, we repeat was thrown out of power, and the patronage ofthe State fell into the hands of the foe. Of the extent of that patronage it is unne cessary to speak. We all know that it is next to omnipotent, and, directed with ordinary prudence and vigor, is irresistible. 1 he party in power know its potency, and use it with energy ; whether with prudence, the result must determine. They possess another advantage. Thev constitute a species of confederacy of parties. They arc different in principles and mode of action, but agree in the result to be obtained. Thus one faction of the party gathers in those who are unwilling to rank with the other; and being united in the object, they proceed harmoniously and vigorously to its consummation. Some of our friends have based calculations on supposed division in the ranks of the opposition. Let us not deceive ourselves. No such divisions, to any serious extent, exist. They arc united, as we will discover on the election day. Their candicafc is supposed by many to be an 'available one, in this State. His military career, his age, his long service, his taintless character, and his present poverty, plead urgently for him with the inconsiderate. We have a candidate against whom the whole force of the democratic party was directed but a few years since. In 1832, when the party sustained Wilkins against Van Buren, the people were told to distrust and dislike Van Buren ; and in our present operations we have to encounter the very objections which the American Sentinel, Pa. Re porter, and, indeed, the democratic press of the Ntate generally, then labored to raise against him. The people cannot be taught and untaught as politicans will it; and pursuadingthe democracy of Pennsylvania, in 1832, that Mr. Van Buren was not entitled to their support, it requires a considerable effort to bring them back. This would be difficult, even if we were united. But we arc devided. It is in vain to conceal it. The party is divided. The Criminal Court for the county of Hamilton, which has been sitting for the last two weeks, sentenced the following prisoners, on Thursday last. We understand the Court will adjourn this week. Wm. Markland, for stalling with the intent to kill, Ohio Penitentiary. 2 years. James Boals. for Grand Larceny, 3 years. Daniel Milloy, Grand Larceny, 3 years.

Julia Ireland, poisoning. 15 years. 2of which solitary confinement. Cin. Republican Death of Bishop White. Several of the Philadelphia papers came to us in mourning, in consequence ofthe death of the venerable and illustrious William White, D. D. Bish op the principal Diocese of Pennsylvania, and Senior Bishop of that church in the United States, and at his death, believed to be the oldest protestant Bishop in the world. The U. S. Gazette says: "He was born (we be lieve)in Maryland on the 4thof April, 1748, so that he is more thain oo vears of age. He was a sound Whig in political principles at the time when the profession of such pnnci pless involved important considerations. He was for a long time the Chaplain of Congress, and when that body to avoid the victorious British removed from one place to another, Dr. White shared in us perils." Cin. llhig. Look out eor sparks.

The shock of an earth quake was distinctly felt in Cleveland, Elyria, and sundry other places in the northern part ot this Mate, on the ereningof the oth inst. The Ohio Jltlas observes, "that a tremulous undulating motion of the earth, jarring win dows, crockerj" on shelves, fec. was first per ceptible; then a shock resembling the distant explosion of a powder magazine, which was parently declining toward the Southwest ration, about two minutes."
