pers. We do not, liwcwr, mean in the stightmt !t mce to insinuate that the verdict
f the jury wzU not tote considered 8 full and satisfactory acquittal of the crime with which he wai charged. We do not wish to throw any additional blight on h;s character, or to aid in preventirg his return to those paths .f duty, from which it opfear he has 50 wido'y ttraj ed. We have 4he purposes in these remarks. The firt is' to hold i;p his example ts a wan.inr to the youth of our ciiy, r.gainat the imiulwnce of rnbit to which he was so early in l.fe addicted. 'I he lesson is solemnly impressive, in allowing how easy tt is to become deeply implicated in the worst of crimes, by hab'ts which biing them into n association withthe worst ot character. The n ot direct and car'ain road to dis
grace and ruin, is through the purlieus of
the house of ili-iaine. Our second olivet is to remark on the
growmj disposition in the public mind,
to lean toward mi persons suspeciea or accused of creiit crimes. Ther is a maw
kish. ickly sensibility on this suljccr, . " 1 f .
which, if indulged to exces, ucraia me
ends of justice, perverts the sfern propriety with which the law should ir.vtiriaMv he administered, encoumges the commission f crimes by the hope of impunity, rid,oi
consequence, diminishes the safeguarJs tf
eocipty. Weeveiv day see those truths exempli
fied in the judicial proceeding of t dis
count vr: the very last in which Ibis morbid
sensibility should be indulged, hecausre its criminal code is the mildest of any under
the sun, nnd ought therefore to be inhex
ihlv administered. Cir urr.stantKl evi-
dence, the only evidence which in ninetynine cases out of a hundred can ever be
rocured, is now fur the mot part contemned, nnd the midnight murderer must be sepn in the very act, or he will escape
with impunity. In other cases ot frequent
occurrence, the murderer ie acquitted on the score of drunkenness, as if the wretch
who wilfully change s himself into a beast,
i'j that act releases himself from the re
sponsibilities ot a man. In other cases," still more frequent occurrence, the murderer is acquitted on the ground of insanity, and then suffered
to go tit large, pet haps, to commit new crimes. In general, it may be si id, tint
the noment a wretch commits, or is aup-
nosed to commit a murder, he becomes the
hero of pf'pu'ar admiration, iiis likeness
appears in the windows of print shops; bis dress, feature, actions and manner, are carefully described rn the public prints,
as if be were some grc,iit public oeneiac tor: he is visited and wondered at by thou
sands of curious amateurs: if he escapes
the consequences of his crime he is hailed
with shouts of victory; and if he perishes
under the gallows, s immortalized in a dying rpecch and cnfcsion, in which he
ts represented 83 a sanctified sinner, going
directly to the enjoyment 01 eternal rewards.
That this growing sympathy in favor of
all sorts of criminals, ana this npitoi makii z their i-rinrtes. as it were, illustrious.
by conferring a fictitious importance on the perpetrators, aro calculated to diminish our ebhnrrence of crime and rhcournge it
commission, will appear obvious to all
those ho look into their own hearts. We would therefore respectfully t.tke this
opportunity of reminding our judges, jurors, tnia public prosecutors, that though it may
be better that Un guilty may escape, than that one innocent one m y suffer, still this
benificrnt maxim may be carried too tar in its anolication. when U requires positive
prwf of guilt. A conscientious belief,
ftur.ded on testimony, ought to satisfy the
scruples of nny true lover of justice, whether the fjet bo positively proved or not. Let juries hear in mind, that when thro" anv feelinz of morbid sensibility or from a
timorous flinching from the performance of
ajnstand necessary duty, tliey suner a Kuilty person to escape, they are justly
clinrgeable in the sight of God and man,
with a participation in all the crimes that
fsttscn nay thereafter commit.

I have sent several runners to reconnoitre, and, by so doing, ascertained
'all their movements. There are three
parties; one headed by Ne-ah-micco, one Lv Ne-ah-math!a. and the other bv Jim Henry. The latter party
have been endeavoring to cross tne Chattahoochee river, to get to Florida. They have got a number of stage
horses, mules, and negroes. I sent two expresses to Gen. Lowe, conv
mandimr the militia at Columbus,
. . . , .,
comunicatmg the intention 01 tnese people td cross and make off. He said he would keep a look out. Fortunately it has rained every day for
the last eight days, and raisea me river, so that they cannot get over at nresent. Gen. McDugle has arrived,1
and assumed the command; he will
start the troops at once. My object is to keep these rascals hemmed in till Gen. Jesup arrives. If he was here at this time, I could get on my
horse, and, in two hour s time, show the camp of all the hostile Indians, and call forth by name every leader. Jim Henry is very uneasy; that is the reason he wants to make oil. Ne-ah-m:cco sent from his camp seven stage horses; this is paramount to a back out. This I stated, in my co;nmur.:or.tion before the war commenced, would be his course, know ing nis character. The talk 1 sent to vou came from his enmp, but was
delivered bv Efie-martla, second to
Ne-ah-micco. 1 explained to you what weight this had with me. I sent to Ne-ah-mathla the other day, to try and find out what his strength was; but he is too great a General for me: no information could be gained; his men are too well drilled to communicate any thing. He sent me word he would meet our troops at the Eu-
chee swamp, or back of Mr. Cook's,
on the old road, t tght was the word with him, and he intended to have one. Ne-ah micco, he said, wanted
to back out: but it was not the case
with him. I sent the old chief word we had always been great friends in Florida, as also in this nation; that he stated in council, the last time we saw each other, that 1 had never told
him a lie, or deceived him. 1 now toidhim we were not prepared to meet him at either of these points at this time, but assured him, if he would hold on for a short time, we wou'd meet him on his own ground, and give him an opportunity for a fight.
