The freouejit enquiries made by citizens and strangers, where lie the remains of the gallant General (?reeney who cied ami was buried in our city ?" and the acknowledged want of information on this sulgect, imply * neglect highly reproachful to the known patriotism and feelings of the inhabitant*# And whereas it would he desirable* and, in fact, al most our duty to satisfy public curi osity in this instance,, and thereby give ati opportunity lo the people of this Stnte, among whom the (; xeral lived ami dim!, to testify a s ?are of tlieir gratitude ol Hie noble and iiu portant services render in the re\olu tion by this great and eminent soldier and patriot: and though this be done late, it is yet but a common res|>ect to liis memory for this body to claim his precious remains and remove theui from the vault where they dre uow supposed to be deposited, and mingling with the ashes of thoso'in no wise a kin to him, and have tl?ni intcred under the order, sanction and special protection of this board, so as to enable the Legislature or the pub lic hereafter to erect some monument ^vorthy the memory of this great and good man: On motion of Mr. Alderman Har ris? ?

By a gentleman uom Tombecliee tve are informed that General Jack son lias wrjtteoi to Mehuleetuhbee, head chicf of one of the three grand divisions of the Chactaw nation, through the interpreter Peachland, requesting them to meet him at a time and place s|>ecifled, (when or \> here our informant did not learn) to hold a conference on the subject of hereof that part of their nation to tW United States. W hen our in formant left there Mehuleetuhbee and Peachland were on a tour through die district to Consult the other chiefs and head men on the subject; and the opinion was almost universal among the whites in the neighbour IhkkI, that tho district will l>e ceded to the Uuitetl States, either by sale or by exchange of lauds oil the Ar kansas?though not immediately. We learn from another source, that a deputation of the Chactaw na tion visited the country on the Ar kansaw, with a view of such an ex change, and have made a very favor able report both of the country and quantity of game, tlf Consequence of which a great number of the Chac taws have expressed a willingness to exchang6 with rite United States on the same terms as those granted to the Cherokees. The district embraces the military crossing on the Beskbee, where it lias lately been determined, the great road from Nashville toi New-Orleans shall cross thqt river* Mr. Meig??Ageut for the Cher okee Nation has given notice to in-?, trades on the Cherokee land*? that unless they remove off the said lands by the first of July, he shall apply to (ien.

Judge Drayton, and committed to t?aol, charged with Piracy ami Mur der I?Several more oT~nie~gaitg are now lurking about our tilv, and the Police are making diligent search for them. One \jf the prisoners, nftmed Kef.d, turned Stated evi dence, and yesterday gave a partial statement ot* their. nefarious and bloody transactions, before Air. Par ker, District Attorney. It appeals that these moil, or most of them, belonged to the smack Late reuce,. Captain Attwi<!k, the pro perty of Mr. J. J- Danu.l, of iliis city, w hich vessel arrived hero on the 16th inst. ostensibly from A wreck ing cruize off the Florida Coast, with a cargo of Coffee, in hulk. On his arrival. Capt. A. reported, that w on the 14th inst. near Muscpiito, 1^5 fell in with a schooner, not hav ing a single person onboard; that lie took out a load of Coffee in bulk, and proceeded to this place." | From the declarations of Reed, however, as far as obtained, it ap pears that the sloop was sent by her L owner, from Havana, (where he now is) to the Florida Coast, |p cut Wood. She there mqt with a small ; piratical sloop, the Captain and crew of which affected to believe that Capt. Attwick had brought money to purchase a cargo, which the latter denied?stating that he had but seven dollars. This was taken from him, aud lie hung up for some time in the shrouds, to make him confess. Af ter being convinced that ho had no* money, the piratical Captain propoe ed to uAtxwick antf-^Wrtrew, to join him in ^piVatie4l^iiiize. After consulting his men, tWy^raed, wjtl? the excentiou of the above namtd Rkbu. He being indirectly threat ened Id case of non-compliance, at length acceded, nsba declares, to save his life. Both sloops then sail* ed in company, and soon after, on the Fk>ri<la Coast, (hey fell in tvitli the British brig' Anw, ('apt. 8eekey, from Matanfcas, bound to Falmouth, (Eng.) in distress, which they board* ed avid ran ashore. The brig's crew consisted of ten, including of ficers. teix of her men joined the pirates, and then informed the Capt of the gang, that the Captain ami Mate of the brig could not be trust erf. Immediately after, they, with the cock and one man, who had re fused to join the pirates, were Inhit maaty Murdered and throwir over board ! Both sloops were then load ed with Coffee, as above described, and the story made up that was told here, previous to their leaving the brig. It is believed the foregoing state ment is substantially correct: and we hope in our next to give a further developement of this horrid and abominable transaction. Indeed, wo are in possession of further particu lars, which it is deemed injudicious at present to make public. We sincerely hope that every virtuous citizen w ill exert his energies to bring to the gallows, a gang of ctit-thrmt villains, who are ttie disgrace of hu manity. ' George W.
