THE FRAILTY OF BEAUTY.

And that beauty the flower must fade;
(And sure, if a lady eau fruurn.
Sin’ll frown at the words I have said.)
The smiles of the rose-bud how fleet !
They come—and a, quickly they flv:
Tile violet how modest and sweet!
Yet the Spring sees it open and die.
How snow-white the lily appears!
Yet the life of a lily’s .1 day ;
And the snow that it rquals. iu teal*
To-moirow must vanish away. i
Ah. Beauty! of all tilings on earth,
How msuy thy charms most desire !
Yet llrauty and youth b.is its birth,—
And Beauty with Youth must expire.
Ah, fair ooe’s ! so sad is the tale,
That mv sung in my sorrow I steep ; '
And where I intended to nil! j

But viitueiudignantly seized

THE CAUSE 07 GREECE.
Ve cannot belter fill n column (liid evening than
‘with the annexed appeal of Greek mothers, wives
ami daughters, to the sympathy, and as far as fe
male influence can effect any thing, to the aid of
tfufir own Rex throughout Christendom. t
Th« the horrors, which those heroic
women Iwvc witnessed and borne, have not tamed,
atjd will not tame, the spirit which draws its inspi
ration from the glorious part of Grecian history,
and which is nouiished by the recollections of
brtghttfr and more glorious days, and influenced by
the deep sense of actual, unmerited and most de
"gptdTng oppression. MTe have conversed with a
Greek gentleman now here, who is person
ally acquainted wirh mo«t of the ladies who
have signed the subjoined appeal. He descril/es
them as being j-‘rsons oi education, of refinement,
accustomed to tire care and enjoyments of opu
lence.
1a* rt be judged, then, what must be their suffer
ings , under tire state ol things which they aro oblig
ed to witness, to endure. Then, too, let the cou
rage, the fortitude, the undying and irrepressible
spirit be appreciated, which induce and enable tht-n
to share, to encourage, ar.d to console the despe
rate struggle of their husbands, brothers and sons.

A VOICE FROM GREECE.
Contained ia an address from a Society/ of
Greek Ladies, to the Philhellent of their own
sex in the rest of Ever ope.
(TUAJfSDATED BY OKORCE DEE.)
We extract with pleasure the following passages
from this interesting appeal : —
•' Fmcftcfi ox Greece :—The destruction &
the flames of Cydonia, the inhuman and most bar
barous massacre of the iseiots, the unexpected cap.
livity of Candia, Cassos, and Eu! <x*>, the sudden
Catastrophe of Tpsarn, the confljgrarion of different
villages and towns of Greece, the leading of their
Inhabitant* into slavery, and the unhappy victim*
of all those misfortunes, are still present to our
intouls. Nearly all of us b*ve seen mothers dying
in the twin* of their daughters, daughters yielding
fheir last sighs near their expiring parents, infants
srilJ hanging at the breasts of their lifeless moth
-«;rs. Nakedness, famine, cold, aril the death
•which those privation* occasioned, are evils of an
inferior and lighter consideration, com par til with '
iboee which have often presented themselves to I
om eyss overflowing with tears. Many of u* I
'have lost our brothers and sisters ; others have 1
■been rendered orphans, deprived of every assylum. 1
Terbaprs nomisfottune lias ever been heard of, to
xvhlcb either ourselves, or others of our country- <
women, have not been subjected. Poetic fiction 1
would bo at a lov* to describe distress so deplorable '
and so grievous as we have seen others suffer, and 1
have ourselves undergone.
" Rut we assure you, friends of Greero, none of '
t're calamines we hava just mentioned, have so
tnueb lacerated our hearts, a* the inhumanity, or
ratbei absolute barbarity, shown towards our nation
by many of those who boasted that they were born
fn the more enlightened parts of Europe ; that they
had read admirable books on morality written by
our ancestors; and, what i* still more astonishing,
• hat they were disciples of the gospel, and had li*.
fened to the precept* of the most enlightened teach
ers of virtue
° Yes, friend* oi ureere,thoc woes were indeed
oppressive, they were overpowering ; but, by the
Independence of our country , we declare that the
unexampled courage, with which many of our
countrywomen have resolved rather to he precipi
tated into the depth* of abysses, to be cast into
the flames, to become the prey of wild beasta, to
contend with famine in deserts and caverns, then
again to undergo the inhuman slavery of the Turks
— the idea that nil we suffered was occasioned by
The love we bore our country —made our rniafor
tlines not alone supportable, but even in some
measure* acceptable, amidst our tribulations. Bo
hiilex, lw*d we to wonder that such misfortunes were
.nllieted upon us by sueh enemies i
“ But who, we **y not of our countrymen, but
rtf the Turks themselves, could have ventured to
imagine that he would sea millions of Christians
regard with apathy aud indifference, as if in a Bo
man amphitheatre, the whole of the Turkish hordes
cnited and allied, prepared to rush on a few
Christians in order to extirpate them with firo and
•word ? And on what account f because they
had reaolvcd to redeem from slavery the land that
gave them birth, and to prevent in future the Turk
ish tiger* from feeding on her entrails. Who could I
have thought that the Koran would have more in
fluence in rousing the Turk* unanimously against
n», than the voices of the *age« of Europe, andfhe
admonition* of the expeundersof the Gospel, have
hitherto had in exciting the sympathy of the Chris
tian * to avert the many evil* to which wa have
ron «pd •'111 continue to be flxpoied
“ Ivd, perhaps, 4* many eaijgltUtQCd vcratms
even of our nation have endeavoured to persuade
11s, the just policy of Europe, or ihe balance oi the
Emope:<n powers, demands that indiffeience, or,
as they 'heinselves call it, neutrality, although we
have always imagined that a just policy could only
consist in lending assistance to those who were
uin iwfully persecuted, inhumanly tyrannized over
and oppressed, particularly whilst it might be done
without injury to one’selt, and even with the great
est facility.
“ Besides, is it not afflicting to perceive, that
many Europeans, even after the proclamation of
that indifference or neutrality, instead of remaining
tranquil and neutral spectators, have given the
Turks the benefit of their advice and assistance,
and liave furnished with supplies the fortresses
which we were besieging, and which we had s te
eeeded in reducing to a stale of danger : notwith
standing that the Turks had massacred our innocent
brethren whom they found there ? Is it not
distressing to see that those Europeans unite with
our enemies and wage with them their battles both
by land and sea, as if it were not sufficient that
all the Ottoman nations arc assembled to destroy
the few soldiers which we can oppose (o them,
and that all their fleets are arraytd against our
small and feeble vessels? Who docs not shudder
to see the cross raised with the crescent in opposi
tion to a email Christian nation, which lights under
the very banners of that cross ? Who can refrain
from weeping and deploring, when he hears that
many of those, who are called all Europeans, give
balls and drinking parties on learning that we have
suffered some new misfortune ?
“We know not how history will narrate this
incomprehensible apathy of Europe ; but we think
she will be at a loss to tiud a word sufficiently ex
pressive to denounce the inhumanity of those furi
ous and implacable enemies of the Greeks, who,
instead of remaining indifferent and neutral Chris
tian spectators, have, in an incredible manner,
degenerated into barbarous Turks, and raged even
more furiously than the Mussulman* themselves
against our unhappy nation. Yes ! men of our
own faiih, whom we deemed our brethren, and
whom we have never injured or desiie to injure,
hate u» and seek to wound us in every manner even
more deeply than the Turks. This is at once in
comprehensible and extraordinary.
“ We are certain that our country will be saved
though she is persecuted by open, as well as by
unjust, mueaioi able, and secret encmic*. We con
fide tn Divine Providence, and we trust we shall
not be forsaken ; we are encouraged by the zeal ol
all the true sons of Greece, by the piudence of our
governors, by the courage of our chiefs and sol
diers, by the magnanimity of our admirals and sail
ors, by the daring of the captains of our fire-ships,
•i id by the love of our ftiends, to hope that Greece
will erect ttopines to record the de'eat of her im
placable enemies, and that she will completely tri
umpn over ine;n. uis possiuie mat we may not
live to behold that brilliant ar.d glorious day, when
our country shall enjoy perfect freedom and inde
pendence; but notwithstanding the sufferings we
have endured, we snail die contented, on rejecting
that we die for our country, in freedom, and no
longer the slaves of barbarous tyrants ; befoie we
cio.-e our eyes, we will bequeath to our posterity
the remembrance, that although cruel and implaca
blo enemies persecuted our nation in its struggle
for emancipation, some men convinced us both by
words and deeds that they weretenlly our friends ;
we will teach our children that Philhellenic wo
men, aided Greece by their sympathetic efforts, and
lent her all possible assistance ; that they rejoiced
with tile women of Greece when their country
triumphed, and wept with Ihein at her misfortune#,
and that, in a word, they really became Greeks in
their wishes ter our nrnsneritsr
“ We shall leave as an advice to our country
women to rray that no harm may happen to those
who are without a cause our enemies, that they
may be permitted to live and sec the victory and
triumph of Greece, which they so shamefully and
unreasonably persecuted ; for we think they will
be sufficiently punished by the reproaches of their
conscience,by the opprobrium which will be at
tached to their names, and by the inininous and dis
honorable inheritance which they will leave to their
children.
“ We will command them, generous friends of
Greece, to praise anti celebrate on every occasion,
the love you have shewn our country ; never to
forget the gratitude they owe you, and to hand it
down to their children. Although we do not asyet
wear on our bosoms a medal with the inscription
‘ To the Philhellenic ladies,’ be assured that the
remembrance of your kindn"** is engraved on the
tablets of our hearts, and that year much loved
names will be the constant theme of our admiration.

THE NEW THEATY.
Crpy of a tetter from Mr. Berrien, to Gov.
Thovp, on the nuhjeet of thf JVeto Treaty.
Washington, 30th May, 1826.
My Dear Sir: I got your letter of the Iflihinst.
this morning. I am not at all surprised that the peo
ple of Georgia are dissatisfied with the new treaty.
On the floor of the Senate when in secret session,
I distinctly and more than once stated that this
would be the case, but the Journals are no longer
secret, and a« they will be published on Thursday
in the Intelligencer, will explain the facts. I had
hoped that my colleague, who was called away by
the situation of his family, would before this time
have been enabled to nee you and would have put
yon in possession of all the facte; but I suppose
the same cause which called him from us, has pre
vented him from seeing you.
Our course on this subject was plain and straight
forward. We der ied the power of Congress to
annul 'he old Treaty without the consent of Geor
gia. We declared our readiness to investigate,
and our ability to repel, any charge of fraud which
could be brought against it, but we refused to con -
sider the depositions taken by General Oainea and
Major Andrews, as evidence on this question, be
cause they were e.t parte, were taken in a colla
teral procedure, and while the Indian Agent re
taining his station substantially, though nominally
suspended, was able to exercise an undue influence
in the nation. I had an early conversation on tots
subject with the Chairman of the Committee on
Indian Affairs, who concurred with mo on thc-e
objections. When the treaty of January was sub
muted, the Secretary of War had requested »o be
informed, if the Committee should be unwilling to I
recommend its ratification, in order that the i’reei-i
<l*nt might hare an opportunity of transmitting the[
depositions boor® reamed lo, to tiie Sssmate. They
determined not to recommend the ratification, and
the fact was communicated to the Secretary, who
thereupon requested the Committee to call lor tho-«*
papers, which they refused to do; but a member of
the Committee, Mr. Edwards of Connecticut, laid
on the table of the Senate a resolution calling lor
them. Wlule it remained unacted up<m I had a
conversation with the Chairman of the Committee
on Indian Affairs, who expressed lo me his opin
ion, that the Indians might be induced to yield all
the lands within the limits of Georgia, and under
this belief he resumed the negoctation with tt:e
assent of the Secretary of War. It was at this
period that my colleague and Major Merriwetlier,
alter examining various map*, came to the con
clusion which has been communicated lo you by
the former, and which was announced as our opin
ion to the Secretary of War; but he was at the
I sains time told, that the proposed cession, after
wards carried into effect in the Supplemental Arti
cle, would not remove our objections to the Trea
ty, nor would any thing short of a surrender in
terms of all the lands within die limits of Georgia.
The course which we prescribed to ourselves was
this—First, To maintain the old treaty inviolate
Second, Failing in this, to obtain a ces-ion in
terms of all the lands in Georgia under the new
treaty_Third, If thiscould not be done, to obtain
as much land as we could, averting at the same
time our determination to oppose the treaty as an
infraction of the rights of Georgia. We distinctly
told the Secretary, when he urged that a very small
part of tile land of Georgia would be left out by the
treaty, if any, that the principle on which we ac
ted was equally involved whether the part left out
was great or small. When, therefore, the treaty
and its supplemental article were laid before the
Senate, it was laid on the table at the instance ol
my’ colleague and myself, and * -ubinitted a resolu
tion requesting the President to negotiate lurthcr
with the hostile Indians, for the surrender in express
terms of all the lauds within our limits, and with
the followers of McIntosh for the purpose of mak
ing ccitnin piovisions for them. A long and ani
mated debate took place on these resolutions, but
the Senate adjourned without taking the question,
& before we again went into Executive business, w e
ascertained oil consulting with our friends that they
could not be carried. Then we determined to en
deavor to amend the treaty and to contest its ratifi
cation. I proposed a substitute for the first article,
I and Judge While of Tennessee, whose uniform
j support I take great pleasure in acknowledging,
brought forward the same resolutions in favor of the
friends of McIntosh, by way of amendment to the
treaty, which I had before offered in the form of a
request to the President to negotiate an additional
article. In all this we filled. The treaty wasratiii
ed, anil we recorded our votes against it. I lie rea
son assigned for its ratification, and which appear
ed to influence the members generally was, that
(here was no evidence, that any of the Georgia
lands were excluded, and that if when the line be
tween Georgia and Alabama was run, it should ap
pear that any had been left out, immediate mea
sures would be taken to procure it. It was in vair
that I replied that the wishes and immediate rights
of a sovereign state ought not To be thus put tc
hazard—that the uncertainty under which we were
acting was the fault of the United States, os sht
had prevented or delayed ihe running of the line
bettveen Alabama and Georgia—that unless we
could have all our lands we were entitled to ask,
that the old treaty should be maintained, or the
charges against it proved, and that the Senate
ought not to shrink from the investigation. My
colleague re-iterated these idea-* and made othei
suggestions, but they were unavailing, l'he Senate
gladly avoided the unpleasant investigation which
awaited them, if they rejected the new treaty, and
ratified it «.i r fumlj believe, ralher in the hope
than the belie! ibat all the lands within the limits ol
Georgia would he ceded by it.
Defeated in these particulars, I still thought it
an act of duty to the friends of McIntosh, and
interesting to Georgia, to attempt somelliing for
their relief, and for the encouragement of their
emigration. In this I have succeeded to an extent
which you have no doubt seen, as the act lias been
published. Then came tiie bill appropriating money
to carry the treaty into effect, and with it Ihe dis
covery of tho fraud which is developed in the re
port of the Committee of Conference which I sem
you. This completely turned the tables on our
accusers, and such was the indignation of the Se -
nate, that if the new treaty had been then in our
power, it would have been promptly rejected. The
debate on the report which you will see published
in the Intelligencer of Thursday next, afforded an
opportunity to take a brief review of the transac
tion, of which I availed myself, and the Represen
tatives of Georgia in the other house, were not
unmindful of the occassion or of their duties.
Such, sir, is a brief nariativcjof tiiis affair. We
cannot say with Francis, that we have lost every
thing hut our honor, but we can say with hone->t
pride, that it is unimpaired.
I am very respectfully and truly yours,
JN. MACPHERSON BERRIEN.
Gov. Tnour.
TUB KKW CREEK TREATY AGA1X.
The Documents cannot be read without astonish
ment and indignation. Astonishment at the con
duct of the Secretary of War, in giving at least a
tacit assent to the gross fraud contemplated against
the Creek Nation, ami indignation at the villainy
attempted to he practised by the Creek Delegation,
in appropriating to themselves, three Cherokees,
and half a dozen others, one hundred and fifty
nine thousand dollars of the money to be paid by
Government as the purchase of the Creek lands.—
The gentleman at Washington who forwarded
these documents to us justly remarks, that “ whilst
niAUB had been been imputed to the first treaty
but not proved, it is imputed, anJ />roved and
admitted against the second.” Two Cherokees,
John Ridge & Jos. Vann (who accompanied the
Delegation to Washington) were to have fobbed
$30,WOO. A Cherokee Chief, Maj. Ridge (the
father of John) was to have had $10,000 - To
ATcnaxcce, a notorious hostile of the Ocfuskees,
who fought against Gen. Jackson in the battles of
Emuckfau and Horseshoe, and commanded the'
party that murdered M’Intosh, $10,000 was al-J
lotted in the division of the spoil.
The reader will remark in the expose from the
War Department by Thomas L. M’Kenney, that
after the basis of the Treaty had been agreed on,
but before it was put in form, the Cherokees, Ridge
and Vann, made known to the Secretary of War
the “ intentions” of the Creek Delegation to re
quire reservations for them (Ridge and Vann.)—
The Secretary declined making reservations in fa
vor of these impudent fellows, but agreed at once
to give each of them five thousand dollars in money.
Was this bribery, or not ? What claim had R'dge
and Vann of the Cherokee Nation to reservations
of Creek lands, or to a sum of money in lieu there
of?
Mr Dwight of Mam. who endeavored through
out the investigation of this dirty business to scieen
the Secretary of War from merited censure, gives
a false coloring to the most objectionable part of
the transaction, in the report he made from the ■
Committee of Conference to the House of Kepre- !
sentatives. His report says—“From the facts!
stated in the documents submitted, it appears that !
the Delegation from the Creek Nation, by whom !
the treaty was negotiated, proposed an extensive
reservation of lands for (he benefit of Ridge, Vann
and others, which was declined by the Secretary,
and that they afterwards, confined their efforts to
benefit those individualsby a distribution of money,”
Now we appeal fo the Documents themselves, and
’o the common sense of every man who can read !
them, for mir justification in asserting that Mr.)
Dwight so drafted bis report as to play off» j
” Yankee trick” on the House, more creditable
to his “ cutcncus" than to his candor and integri
ty. The Documents (which are before the public)
did not justify Mr. Dwight in stating, 'hat the
Creek Delegation proposed reservations of land in i
favor of fiaige, Vann and others; nor that, tb» |
Delegation afterwards confined their efforts to bene
fit those individuals by a distribution of money_
The facts, a« shewn by M'Kenney’s expose, are
these—I'he Secretary of W ar, on a bare sugges
tion ky Ridge and Vxrtn of the generous “ tnten
•
!o»ts° of the Creek Delegation toward* them
(Ridge and Vann, and no others) and without any
ipplication in their favor by the Creek Delegation,
agreed to pay the applicant* Ridge and V ann
^5000 e«ch in lieu of reservation*. It does not
appear 'hat the Secretary even wailed to ascertain
whether Kidge and Vann had truly stared the “ in
tentions” of the C;eek Delegation, much less,
that the Delegation “ afterward* confined their
efforts to benefit tho*c individuals bi" a distribution
of money.” Ridge and Vann accomplished their
purpose of securing $10,000 by their simple
statement- without one effort or so much as a re
quest from the Cieek Delegation. How disingenu
ous then is the atteiup' to make it appear, that the
douceur to the Chciokees wa* forced on the Secre
tary of War by the efforts or importunities of the
Creek Delegation ? ,
The Secretary of War says, although he was ad
vised to approach the influential Chiefs with secret
gratuities, justified as it was urged by the usages of
tlie Government, fie peremptorily refused to do so;
St determined, that whatever was given as the price
of the land should appear, on the face of the treaty.
But the Secretary knew, before the treaty was rati
fied, of the intention of the Delegation to divide
the money between themselves, the Cherokees and
a few others, yet did not divulge it until officially
called on for information on that point, after the
confirmation of the treaty, when a discovery of
the intended fraud was made by accident. The
Secretary then evidently felt the aulcwaidness of
his situation, from which, his call on the officer
superintending the Bureau of Indian Affairs has
not in the least lelieved him—that officer shewing
no disposition to shoulder any responsibility that
did not properly belong to him. It would require
a nicer casuist than the Secretary to define the
difference in principle between giving a bribe m
gro*s, wi'h a perfect knowledge of the manner in
which it was afterwaids to be sub divided among
a few 'o defraud of the many, and the giving to
each one of the party bribed a distinct sum.
Our readers will naturally enough enquire, where
was the tho.ough-going confidential friend of the
Clark party, that watchful Guardian of the Creek
Nation’s rights, the Agent Crowell, while this
scheme of atrocious villainy was maturing? Aye,
where was he? We staled in a late paper that this
Agent, with the Cherokees Ridge and Vann, went
along with the Creek Deputation to Washington
and stuck clo*e to them there, to “ keep than
straight” in their opposition to the old treaty:—
But Ridge and Vann did not labour for nothing—
Their services wcie required — they were abun
dantly paid for their vigilance in keeping the De
legation *• straight.” How failhlul they were
to their trust, may be inferred from the fact, that
the Secretary of War, (notwithstanding his anxious
wish to maintain the old treaty), could not with
hold from them the rew ard of their merit—and who
can blame him, when it was only the pitilul sum
of ten thousand dollars? “ Not so small a sum
either,” says one of our close-fisted readers—
“ Ten thousand dollars is no small sum to be given
to Uvo • lierokee scoundrels. It is more than
twenty of my honest harcJ-a\orking neighbors get
for their year’s crops in clear money when cotton
is at seven cents a pound.” True, gentle reader,
but remember that through the influence and watch
fulness of these 1 herokees, the t reek Delegation
were kept “ straight" and steadfast in their op
position to the old treaty, which made it necessa
ry to form a new one annulling the first—remem
ber, that the invalidation of the old treaty tvas ne
cessary for the justification of Pre-idem Adams
and his Secretary of War —it palliated their mis
conduct in retaining Crowell in office -in counte
nancing the insolence of Andrews and Gaines—in
arraying a military lorce^on our borders to awe os
into submission—in lorbidding the survey of our
lands—that it justified, to a certain extent, the
murder of Mc’lntosh and the neglect of his friends
by Government—that it was " a thorn in Troup’s
side,” and might help the Clark party in Georgu,
the old Federal party—the friends of the elder
Adams, and not unfriendly to the younger one.
Remember all this, and then say, whether the
boon of ter. thousand dollars to Ridge ami Vann
i\ as more than they deserved at the hands of the
Administration. [~MUleiigcoiile i ecorda.
