In remarking on this subject, wc suggested ; to the editor of the Journal of the Times, that lie ought to L'a'ii a little of the hisloiy and laws of Ins country, before venturing to sit in judg ment 011 that high officer, to whom is confided tiie administratioi) of those laws.—The manner j in which our advice lias been me», makes it proper for us again briefly to notice this unim portant subject. We must coirect a misiepre sentation, and press our advice. We had remarked, that “one sage erudite, in order to shew what was the duly of Gover nor Lumpkin, affirms, that Governor Gilmer ip i’doned other persons convicted at the same ! time, and of the same offence, with the mission ■ iru'S, on their taking the oath not again to vio late the law.” The most obtuse reader must ; perceive, that in this sentence we did not give I ■our own exposition of the purport of the oath I heretofore required of Cherokee residents— that we merely stated an assertion, vvhich we : believed to have been made by tiie editor of 'he Journal of the Tinr-s. And yet the edi tor of that paper, with our article before him, 1 (for he quotes from it, with inverted comm.is,) : misrepresents us as expressing our own opin ion, and saying, i/r propria persona, that the , i oath required by the law, was an oath not to j • viol tto the law. Was tins misrepresentation ignorantly tirade ? He charges its with substituting a coinage of our own for the remark made by himself. We should regret doing injustice to that editor. We m.tv have erred; for in rem irking on the Jour al of the Times, we relied on our recollection j of a picre which we had not read with profound auei.’tion, but which we believed that we re memijered. It seems, that he spoke of the! oath of allegiance, the oath to support and de fend the const.'ti.'iion and laws; and nut of an oath not to violate the law. lor the present purpose, the difference between two such oaths is not material: as the former includes the latter. IL* who supports fi law, docs not violate it: and ite who violates law, *1 ae.J not support it.— This nnimportant distinction can ottiy raise a little fog, which is easily blown off. Admit the correction, and what does that editor gain? His assertion is, “that Governor Gilmer oflor jed hese men,” the mission tries ptrdan, ; ; ri.vidf'd they uonld comply with the law of G o ia, and take the oath required by that i w ” This assertion is erroneous. Gover nor (id.tier required, as a con lition of pardon, ’ tin ua Ii wli atever; but only a promise not again ; to violate tiie law: and all the prisoners sentenc- r I to PviHlentiary confinement, for illegal re- j sulence in the Cherokee Territory, except the I i missionaries,- making such a pt'miise, ieeeiv»id j their pardon. Admit the correction, and the I er’itor of the Journal of the 'Times is still prov- j cd ignorant of the f it' of which bespeaks. He asks, whether Governor Lumpkin re- i quired the missionaries to lake lite oath refer-j red 10, kefore their discharge. 'The law pre j scribing that oath, h >d been repealed, previous ! I to their paidom to require such ;tn oath, w is 110 j longer lawful. 'The editor is equal!v ignorant \ of the lam, of which he speaks.
