A change of residence, therefore, from
their present positions to the regions west
of. the Mississippi, presents the only hope
of permanent establishment and improve-
men'. That it will be intended with in
conveniences end sacrifices, no one can
doubt. Tho ttssociniious, which hind the
Indians to tho land of tlteir forefathers are
strong and enduring; mid those must he
broken by their migration. But they arc
also broken by our citizens, who every dny
encounter nil the difficulties of similar
change* in the pursuit of the means of
support. And tho experiments, which
have been madn satisfactorily, show, that,
by proper precautions, and liberal appro
priations, the temoval md establishment
of the Indians, cut) be effected with litllo
comparative trouble to them or us. Why,
then, should the policy of this measure

Tho failure, which has attended the ef
forts heretofore made, ami which will prob
ably attend upon similar principles, may
he attributed parly to the inherent diffi
culty of the undertaking, resulting from
characteristics peculiar to the Indians, aud
partly from the mode in which the opci.r-
tions have been conducted.
Without entering into n question which
opens a wide field for inquiry, it is sufli
cittitt to observe that out primitive people,
ns (voll in tlteir habits and opinions as in
their customs and pursuits, offer obstacles
almost insurmountable to any considera
ble and immediate change. Indolent in

Without repining. Ho attributes all the
misfortunes of bis race to the while matt,
and look* with suspicion upon the offer*
of assistance that ate made him. These
11wits of charnclcr, though nut universal,
are yet general; and the practical diffi
culty they present, in changing the condi
tion of sticlt a people, is to satisfy them
of out'sincerity and the value of the aid
we offrr; to hold out to them motives for
exerffn j to call into action some power
ful feeling, which shall counteract the ten
dency uf prnvious impressions. It is uit-
der such circumstances, anti with these
difficulties in view, that (he Government
ha* been called upon to determine wlnti
arrangements shall be made for the per
manent establishment of the Indians.—
Shall they be advised to remain or re

The general detail of a plan lot the
permanent estab'ishmn it of tho Indians
west of th) Mississippi, and for their pro
per security, would require much deli bet-
mi ion: hut there are same fundamental
principles, obviously arts iugont of the na
dians. These predatory bands strike a
s roke, and disappear. And there is in
the iin.'<ilutions ef the Indians, such a
st' ong tendency to war, that we shall long
be liable to these outrages. Military
prow-ox* and success form lltcir principal
road to distinction. And the interminable
forests and prairies of the West offer them
iuio of the subject, wltich, when once I the means of shelter and escape. No in-
adopied, would constitui o the bust foup- fan try force can ove.». ko them; Bnd if wo
datiubs for exertions, and tho hojtes of j are not provided wuli mounted troops,
ties which in tv well call for discussion aud
tonsidnration.
Fur mure than two centuries wu have
hoon plnreil in contact whit the Indians.
Aud if this long period has been fruitless
in useful results, n lias uni hero so in ex-
perimems, having in view their intptove-
/nent. Able men have been investiga
ting their condemn, and gnmt men at
tempting to imurove it. Ihe all these la
bours have been iinsm ct ssful in lltr issue,
ns litany of them weie laborious and e<-
. pensive in their progress.
The wot It has been aided Itv govern
ments and communities, hv public opinion,
by \lio obligations of the laws, and by the
sanction of religion. But its history fur-
••Jliahes abundant evidence of an entire
failure, and every thing around us upon
the frontiers confirms its truth. TLo In
diana have either recoded, as our sellie-
ments advanced, and unitod titoir frag
ments with some kindred tribe, or itrey
have attempted to establish themselves up
on tho. reservations, in the vain hope of
resisting the pressure upon them, ami ol
iriosorving their peculiar institutions. —
Those, who .ire newest o ns, have gener
ally suffered most severely by the debit.
sing effects uf ardent spirits, and by (be
loss of titoir own principles'of restraint,
few as titeso are, without the acquisition of
ours; and almost nil of them have disap
puared, crushed by the onward eomso of
exeats, or driven before them. Not one
thsrmcu can bo produced in ihe whole his
tory of lln^imofcouise boiween the Indi
ans and the white men, where the former
huve been able, in districts surrounded by
the Idtloi, to withstand successfully the
progress of those causes, which hnvo ele
vated one of these races and depressed
tho other. Such n monument of fin trier
successful exertion dues not exist
These remarks apply totti© effort* which
