To this construction of ils meaning I have endeavored to conform, and have taken no step inconsistent with it. As soon, therefore, as the sovereign poitfer of the Stale of Georgia was exercised, by an ex tension of her laws, ilirouglidiii Iter limits, and I had received information of the s uite, orders were given to withdraw from the State the troops which had been detailed to prevent in trusion upon the Indian lands within it; and theso orders were executed.

The. principles recognized in the section last quoted was not forlhefiisi time then avowed relations of the Indians to the Stales, or to the Federal Government. To effect this would have required tlio operation of quite a diffeient principle, and tite intervention of a tribunal liiglinr than that of tho treaty making power. To infer front tlie assent of the Government to this deviation from the practice which had before governed its intercourse with the.In- dinus, and the occidental forbearance of tlie Slates to assert their right of jurisdiction over tlmm, that tlir v had surrendered this.portion of their sovereignty, and that this assumption now is usurpation, is conceding too much to the necessity which dictated thosd treaties, anti doing violence to the principles of the rovern- mem and the rights of tlio States, without he ft is conformable to the uniform practice of j fitting in the least ilegreo the Indians.

Was dueled justice of tile Interim* Court .>1 Hiliti county, to fill the. vacancy caused by the removal from the cou Hy util" damn II If,ulcers In today’s paper will be tound a iiwsage from Pre- side ut Jackson to the .Senate ol' tin- United .stab tbe subject of Iho power of a State over the Indian constitution, anti amounts to a distinct recogni- i tiny other light than ns members of a foreign lion by Congress, at that early day, of the doc- trino that that instrument had nut varied the powers of the Federal Government over Indian affairs from what they wore under the articles orcohfedcriitimi. Ill's not believed that there is a single insinnco in the legislation of the country in which the Indians have been regard ed us possessing political rights, independent of the cuntrol ami authority nf the Stales with in llm limits nf which they" resided. \s earlvj a. as the year 1782, the journals of Congress will! ti ■ was I ta show that no claim of such a character Government, or of that of the Stale within whose chartered limits they roside If in the former, tho ordinary legislation nf Congress in relation to them is not warranted by the consti tution, which was established for the benefit of our own, not of a foreign people; if in the latter, then, like other citizens or people resident within the limits of the Slates, they are subjeei to their jurisdiction and control. To muiinin a contrary doctrine, and to require he Exccu- ive to enforce it by the employment of a mili tary force, would be to place in his ImiiiIs countenanced by that body. In dial year the ; power to make war upon tho rights of the application of a tribe nf Indians residing in i St ales and the liberties of tho country —a pnwm South Cirolina'to have certain tracts of I and ! winch should be placed in the hands of mi in which had been reserved for their use in that Stato, secured to them, free from intrusion, and without thn right of alienating them, oven with their*bwn consent, was brought to the consider ation ot Congress by u report from the Secreta ry of War. Thu resolution which was adopted on that occasion is ns follows: l, ttcsalceil, That it bo recommended to the Legislature of South Carolina to lake such Oteasotes for tho satisfaction and security of said .tribe us thn said Legislature in their wis dom may think fit." Hum is no assertion of tho right of Congrats, under tho articles of confederation, to interfere with, the jurisdiction of Slates over Indians within their limits;-or rather a negation uf it. They refused to interfere with the subject, and referred it,'under a general recommendation, back to the Suite, in bo disposed of as her wis dom might decide. If, to addition to this act and tlio language of the articles of confederation, any thing further can be wanting to show the eaily views nf the . Government on tho subject, it will be fniinri in tho proclamation issmil by Congress in 1783. .It contains thislattgu tge: “The (Juited States *n Congress assembled have thought proper to 'ssue their proclamation, and they do hereby Prohibit nnd forbid all p -rsnns front making sot- l \eincnts on lands inh ibited or claimed by In dividual. If, indeed, the Indians ate lobe regarded as people possessing rights which they can exer cise independently of the States, much error has irisen in the intercourse of Ihe Govern ment with them. Why is this that they have beenc died upon to assist in our wars, withniit the privilege of exercising their own discretion! If in independent people, they should, as such he consulted and advised with] but they have not been. In an order which was issued to mo from the Wai D»i>arnnent, in September, 1814. this language is employed.* “All tlio friendly Indians should be organizad and prepared io cu-operato with your other forces. Tlmre ap- pears to be some dissatisfaction among the Choctaws; their friendship .and services should bo secured without delay. The friendly In dians must be fed and paid, nnd m nit t» fight when and tehtre their services m ey he required.'’ To an independent and foreign people, this want'd seem to be assuming, I should iupi»>ie, rather too lolly a tone; one which the Govern ment would not have itsumed if they had con. tidered them in that light. Again: by tlio constitution, tho power of declaring war be- longs exclusively to Congress. We have been often engaged in war with the Indian tribes with in our limits;, but when have these hostilities been preceded or accompanied by an aet of d'ans, without the limits or jurisdiction of any | Congress declaring war against the tribe which Particular State." Ami again: vas Ihe object of them! Aud was tho |trosecu- lieso/vetl, That thp preceding measures of lion of such hostilities an usurpation, in each Congress relative to Indian affairs shall not bo .case, by the Executive which conducted Item, construed to effect tlio territorial claims of any of the constitutional power «f Congress! I of tho States, or their legislative rights within Iheir respective limits.” It was not thou pretended that tho General ‘Government had the power, in their relations with tlio Indians, to control or oppose the in- tuinal policy of the individual States of this Union; anti if such was the raso under Iho arti cles of confedojlrtinn, the only question on the subject since.must nriso out of somo more en larged power ot authority given to the General Government by ihepreseut Constitution. Does any such'exist! must have been so, I apprehend, if these inh ere to be considered os foreign and independent uations. The steps tnken to prevent inttution upon Indian lands had their origin with the com mencement of onr Government, and became the subject of special legislation in 1802, with tho reservations which have boon mentioned in favor of the jurisdiction of the Slates. With the exception of South Carolinn, who has uni formly regulated tho Indians within her limits without tho aid of tho General Government, sense, and fettles definitely and conclusively the question of the civil and criminal jurisdiction of Geor gia over the Cherokee Indians. Wo recommend it Inattentive consideration.
