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. [Signed by the members of the Council.] From lla Southern .hr«■ Extract from a letter t.fllu* Hon. William II.

That the annuities due to you hy for mer treaties ho puid to you west of the Mta- issippi consider of the means best adapted to obtain relief, I consider not thn host course, but one 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 ns firmly ns if it were constitutional, nnd will he adhered to as pertinaciously as if express 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, n full blooded American System man.
