The belief that we have arri\ ed at a crisis, when one of the mcnibem of this coufedera t > <-y,placing herself in an attitude of hostility L' to the residue^ bn% rendered it necessary to i resort to the military power of the general | gevemment, to eoeree her to submivn- n, j? would be appadutg to every friend of the K unl'm anJ happiness of these states* and r though infinitely less in degree, it Would t?c t A mutter of unaffected regret, to have forced tipon us the conviction, that an unwarranted anticipation of such a cm>, had led to the uniici. essorv suggestion ot even a conditional determination tuliave recourse to so afRiitiv e v? measure.

They Can, therefore, discover no around for the ** sttinptlon that she meditates resistance to this civil authority of tV union. The in dications which have hern given of au inten iion to employ a portion of her militia, if ne cessary, for the protection of her surveyors ?gainst Indian violence, were limited to that Object. That they were intended to oppose tho constitutional authority of the govern ment, is unsupported by any facts which.

The apprehensions then felt tor! the continuance <if our confederacy urc fresh! in the reeoiloctkm of the committee. Nor! can they forget the exultation which was! manifested by the enemies of republican go-| vefnmcnts end their confident predictions of! the speedy downfall of ours. The1: virtue! and intelligence of the people, co-operating! with tlie mhe lent excellence of our political I Institutions, averted the danger, and pre-l served the union. Three entireadministra-l tions have since intervened, without rvsort-1 log either to the scttud or threaten* exer-l else of force, to sustain the authority of law. I During a portion of this period, oar country! was involved in a sanguinary war with onel of the mot powerful nations of Europe. Inl its progress, when unlooked for calamhyl filled the timomis with apprehension, anal muKcd the patriot to redou'defd exertion, al spirit of iusulsmdluation was manifested inl an important portion of the union. A crisis! occurred more interesting than any other inl the history of our confederacy, ana there np-l peared reason to apprehend that the horrors I of <| civil, might lie superadded to the cali-l mities oi a foreign war. If evidence were I wanting to show the profound and Intimate! knowledge of the nature and tendency of ourl political system, possessed by the statesmen! wli?? then presided over the republic, it ws*l at that time strikingly exhibited; and if any I thing ronid add to the debt of gratitude wnkh the country owes to this illustrious patriot, it is his conduct on that occasion. Had threats of military coercion been used, the pmbattditv of its application wouid have been incrcased, and under the txcitcmeut which prevailed, the eomm> ncemer' of hos tilities between the federal and state ><utho rities might have terminated our existence ms a free and united people. No menac: iwa* employed. No tin-eat of military coer cion fulminated. The movetnentsot those to whom disaffection was attributed, were oh seived with cure, n d silent preparations were niudc to enable the government to net with effect, should the Application of force becOtQv una\ nidable. The threatened coll. sion between the federal and state authori ties was fortunately avoided. The conduct ot the p^uties was sUt.m.tud to the judgment <>f the American people. The sentence which tliev prou iunccd was just, and it will remain irrevocable. Public opinion per formed its office, and our republican institu tion* *p>v from the shock aitli renewed lus tre and increased stability. The honest ap prehensions of those who li'Hl he I on! doubicu their capacity to sustain the pressure of dan ger and the conflict of war, were dispelled, and ali the lr.>j>CM which were louudcd on the anticipated dissolution of our confederacy were destroyed. Such were the legitimate fruits of th? wisdom, modulation ami firintiesn, whir it were then displayed; and, while they retrace the history of that period, the committee ,ve encouraged to hope that similar wisdom nod nt'tdcration will lend to similar results. They would he unwilling to give their sanc tion to different measures, on any occasion of apprehended collision between the fede ral government and ?me of its members, hut more especially in a ease so essentially dif ferent in principle and character, front that with which it has been comp.ircdf as the present. I* admitted to he. It is fur from their des'tre to interfere with those duties which lias been confided to the executive, and which, they doubt not, wtU !??? di si.-1 tarr ed with ability and *ral; but it becomes their duty to express their opinion, that there appears to be no ground to apprehend the necessity of appealing to miliary force, for the purport of enforcing the laws uitliiiv tin state of Georgia, and that they cannot concur in the or of an lasu which every gotrt citizen should enUttVcr to avert. The cnirtnittee n?* deemed It nccce sary to advert various other subjects embra ced In the report and resolution* referred to thc*.n, Soino of tfteni involve questions rvhich cannot properly originate in this branch of the national legislature; ami they do not perceive the necessity or propriety of entering into nn examination of the remain der, while the principal question -which belongs to til's controversy Is in a course of judicial inquiry. The committee? rely with coufldence, on the justice, ui?d the n*trl??tism of the autho rities of the United mates and of Georgia, in expressing their tonvietions, that no such unhappy consequcnees as arc apprehended, can result from the present controversy. ; They rely on the instructions and efforts of > the war department, .md on the declaration* made to the senate, during the discussion of , the treaty at Washington, by one of its mem ; hers, (of the repeatedly expressed willing ' ness of the Creek Chiefs to relinquish any little remnant of land within the limits of Georgia, which, on running the lines of that treaty, might bo found to be excluded) for the assurance, that this whole controversy nwy be juecdllr Krijmtod by obtaining the do alred rfilnfjuisnment.

' Sfiain^-'The rclatirc position in *h'ch Spain nmy ultimately place Great iiritaiu and France, is, if wc may crcdit the latest European accounts, involved hi additional uncertainty.

It remains to be seen whether resentmenti will i)f confined to the liberate who have recent' ly nndc themselves audible through Mr. Chateaubriand, and other leaden of tltat party, or will dl*cminkte themselves ex* te'.istvely through the nation; more Special ly when we advert to the fact, thtl the pre sent minister* Mr, Yiliclc, camea with him little of that force of character which k ne ccuary to crush an opposition *hich he is unable to appea?c. \\ e are further to re- I , c<?licrt, that although there_canoot exist any J I strong attachment (or, or personal confidence . in the Hp nisli monarch, the simpathiea are powerful which connect the varhnta branch es of the Bourbons, fortified also by the Ca tholic taith, common to both countries.
