Sir. . . , . , .
We have thought it our duty to indole
your Excellency a copy of the proceed
. 5 i n the fuir brought by the heirs or
Jevifces of the late Earl Granville, again!*
5 }n the Circuit Court of the United
[jutes, for the Diftrift of North-Carolina.
" y 0 ur Excellency will plcafe to ohferve,
that it appears by the letter of Mr. Ed
warJ Harris, counfd for the plaintiffs,
,! n t this suit is commenced for the ex
"refs purpose of trying their title to the
Granville claim within this state; the
or igin of Earl Granville’s claim, as one
0 f the Lords proprietors under the charter
0 f Charles the second, and the extent of
bis claim covering two thirds of this state
and Tennessee, arc fads well known ;
jmw far this title has been effected by the
Revolution or by ads of Coven don or
Legislature, they are now about to fub
nut to a judicial decision, and it remains
w ith the public fundionaries to use such
mcafares as they may deem expedient to
defend the interests of the state.
The council for the plaintiffs consented
that the pleadings in this suit should not
be made up until the next June Term, so
(hat a feftion of the Legislature might in
tervene, and Teemed very deflrous that it
should be made a case agreed as to the
fads, and avowed their intention to re
move the caafe as soon as poflible before
the fnpreme court.
We pray your Excellency, as the pro
per organ, to lay the buhnefs before the
legislature, with such lights as it may be
in your Excellency's power to colled on
this interetting fubjedt, and we have the
honor to be, &c.

FRANKFORD, (x ) September 22.
lx trail of a letter to the Editor, dated
St. Vincennes , loth September, 1802,
evening.
“The council with the Indians was
opened this morning. The chiefs and
many of the warriors of the Miami, Sauk,
Wea, Pian, Kafhan, Patawatamie, Kicka.
poo, Kalkalkias, and Eel-River nations,
have come in, accompanied by about five
hundred young men, women and children.
They are I believe, well disposed, and
highly gratified with the attention paid
them since their arrival. The views of
government towards them are truly mag
nanimous. It is ardently wilhed to a
meliorate their savage, barbarous state,
and place them in the case and enjoyment
of civilized life.
“The Indians have been grossly im
posed upon with regard to the United
lutes. In a drunken frantic fit, they
view us as old women—in their cooler
refledlve moments, as plotting their dc
fluid ion. Those fettled on the Wabash
and White rivers, have, fmee the eftab
hfhmentof a government here, been prin
tipally under the influence of the Inten
tant of Indian affairs ; but those on the
Miffilfiippi, Ouinifconfm and Illenois ri
vers, and the lakes, have been, and are
Hill completely under the contrcul ofßri
tilh agents. That treacherous hypocri
tical nation has now’ its engines spreading
delulions throughout the weftern country.
Uvemoft adtive measures have been taken
to fruftrate the assembling of the Indians;
persuasions and presents have been diffemi
neted with the most vigilant industry,
rodfome have been taught to believe they
fr ete only invited here to be inhumanly
I butchered. The noted M‘Kee, (haved,
I fainted &c. &c. has recently had a war
Idince with the Indians that live within
jour territory, a thing unprecedented in
I time of peace. The Indians towards the
I Mifliflippi and the lakes, visit him annual-
Ify. are loaded back wdrh presents, &c.
I J| d call him the bell of men—and 1 will
I Venture to predidt, that if the prayers of
IM England prevail, the knife and the
I tomahawk will ere long evince to us the
I Orgies of “ secret service money."
I “However, I am in hopes a favorable
I tnange will be effected—feveral circum-
I Ranees which have occurred within a few
I | a Vs» have made very favorable impref-
I tons on the minds of the Indians, The
I Relations so far, exhibit a pleasing
INpeft, and there is no doubt but all
I 1 e objefts for which the meeting has
I tn called, will be fully obtained."
