The following arc I lie propositions submitted to the
Cluirukers at their meeting in August, in a letter from
the Secretary of War.
1. That a country sufiieiently extensive and
fertile, shall he distinctly marked out west of
the territory of -Arkausns, for you nnd your
brethren, where they new nre.
2. That this country shall lie conveyed In
you by patent, under the provisions oft he act, of
1830, and that it shall Ire forever without the
boundaries of any slate or territory.
3. That you shall have idl Ihe powers of
self government so fnr ns nmv he enmpnlihle
with that general supervisory authority, which
n is necessary Congress should exercise ever
you.
4. Thnl you slmll have Ihe privilege of np-
po’itling an ngont, who shull reside at Wash-
iiigtcm, to communicate vour elti'ms nnd wish*
Iii the government ; nnd w ho shall bo paid
by the United States.
the fust place we wish to rail vour ollentinn
to the decisions nf the Nation on former occa
sions on this subject, and to inform the Presi
dent that the true sentiments nf the Cherokee
people remain the same. Thnt the basis of
his proposition is objectionable, and that the
Nation is placed in duress, from the illegal
proceedings nf Georgia in assuming to exor
cise jurisdiction over n largo portion of our
territory, nnd by placing u military force w ith
other officers of her own creating in our coun
try for ihe purpose of oppressing our citizens.
She has also introduced a great number of her
citizens among us, to intrude on our lands,
niirl vested in her chief magistrate the discre
tionary power of drawing n lottery for the oc
cupation nf them. And in this peculiar stale
nflhings, the protecting arm of the President
is withheld from the enforcement nf the trea
ties nnd law* of the United Stales, made for
the protection nf our nation il rights. And
moreover, diverse ngenls nf the general gov
ernment hnve been commissioned for the pur
pose of enlisting our citizens as emigrants for
lh« country west of the Mississippi; and in
the prosecution of this business, some of them
have been sedueed under circumstances t-nl-
culnted to ernalo disquietude nnd disagreeable
feelings. But let tin* President remove all
the difficulties arising from unjust meustirns,
nnd afford us that necessary protection which
solemnly guarantied to us, by treaties ;
nnd then, the exercise of that privilege w hich
is so essential to tho enjoyment of freedom,
would place us at liberty to reflect, spenk and
act freely on Ihe sub ject of our national inter
est and welfare. In conclusion, wo would rn-
spectiliilly call your attention to the frequent
complaints which hnve been made to Ihe de-
partmen' against tho numerous intrusions on
our lands, bordering on the hound tries of the
several adjoining stales, nnd to urge the re
moval of the intruders. Very respectfully
your friends and obedient servants.

likely to produce no immediate evil.
I urn still fnr calling a Federal Convention.
That is n constitutional measure, mid I think
might to bo the first step taken. Our federal
constitution is the only ono in the civilized
world which enables a nation to revise its fun
damental law from time to lime.
In other countries changes in this law nre
the results nf revolution mid bloodshed. Eng
land i» the only instance in modern history of
n change of constitution liv legul means. In
this Republic when the constitution has given
us the right of culling a convention to revise
Ihnt instrument, we seem disposed to refuse
that means, nnd choose rather to resort to rev
olution to effect that object, like Ihe inhabi
tants of the old world, without reflecting thnl
they Imve no other means of righting their
wrongs.
Some in this Slate arc opposed to a conven
tion ; nnd fnr what reason I Why. that in
stead of producing the change we desire, the
constitution would be so changed ns to fix the
system upon us of which wo now complain.—
Suppose it did, what injury would it do tis ?—
It is fixed upon ns by tlm present legislation

ly authorized bv the constitution. I am con
vinced that much of tho complaints and di*
contents that now exist are tho result of a con-
victinn that Ihe tariff law is unconstitutional.-—
pleasure,
I fall the nnli-TariffStales will pass resolu
tions, calling a Federal convention, nnd the
Tariff Slates shall refuse their concurrence,
it will ninount to ii declaration on their part,
that they are determined to adhere to the sys
tem with rigor. Such a declaration would
convince the unii-Tartff Stales that they had
to choose between an unlimited submission,
not only to Ihe present tariff, but to every other
measure which cupidity and avarice could de
vise to filch from us what yet remains of the
blessings of Providence ; for in n late proce
dure of Congress it was openly mowed Ihnt
the tariir act was intend'd to eqsnliZ" the
advantages which Ihe Southern -States enjoyed
beyond those nf the North.
The revolution was produced rather by the
declaration of the British Parliament that they
had the right to bind the colonies in all cases
whatsoever, than by the paltrv lax upon lea.
Thn English Law Books tells ns, that tile I
British Parliament i* omnipotent, hot their mn
nopotrriee his in no ease attempted to correct
the supposed errors of omniscience mid omni
potence under
In all Ihe folly and extravagance committed
hy that omnipotent body, their records furnish
nothing in equal our Fongross But for the d*
duration id remedying the supposed defer!* of
Provtd-neo by federal legislation, I shout.I he
still i..r forbearance under Ihe conviction that
Ihe tur.ff would eventually cure ilsc.ll; lint
when Congress assume* as a ground of legisla
tion, the right to correct thn supposed d“feets
of omniscient omnipotence, it is abundantly
more ulnrmiog than the declaration nf the Bri
tish Parliament to blind the colonies in nil
ruses whatsoever. Under this assumed nrin-
ciplu n| legislation, thn most vivid imagination
enn set no limits to the usurpation and abuse
lltMl may and prnhnblv will fl uv from it.—
Under tfiich no assumption of power I am not
willmj* to remain a member of tlii* Union if u
muon of ihe South nnd Southwestern States
ran he formed.
Let thru all the nnti-TnnflTStntp.fi pass res
olution** for the rail of a federal convention.
Thin will „how the strength of tho new repub
lic. It i< wholly unsatisfactory to say the Ta
riff Slates will not concur in the call; or iflhev
concur they will not consent to the explanato
ry amendment drumndrd by the South. In
either of these events a great object will lie I
gained. W, slmll have ascertained nnr own
strength and their ultimate determinati in.—
fi e shall have done more. We shall have J
shown our sinrere desire to preserve the Un
ion, and their recklessness. We shall have
put ourselves in tho right and them in the
wrong. If ih'* first event occurs wo will scp.
anile from the Union nnd call a convention to
form a constitution. If the second, we shnll
still separate, if the number nl States which
are disposed to serede will make a rcspecln-
hlo republic. To refuse to do a thing because
it is apprehended that others will not do their
duly, is not correct -other in polities or ethics.
Lot us do nor duty, and I nve to others the
liberty of doing wrong if they choose. But I
think I have shown whether others do right or
wrong, good will nnd must result front the
measure.
I hope vour State will vole for Van Boron
for Vice-President, ns its vole will he thrown
away upon Barbour, who cannot ho elected,
nnd voting for him will elect John Sergeant,
