The policy which I then roconimeudcd to i partmeut from the numerous misrepresentcT. 00 : Legislature to pursue, in regard to those im- of our pohn . ai adversaries. Permit me, gentlemen, to offer for your ac ceptance, this sentiment— Honor and luccess to those servants of tie) people, who faavo the firmness to execute what at Milledgcville, 10th inst. Gentlemen—Itis with great embarrassment that 1 rise to return you my thanks, for tho honor you havo done me, in the sentiments just expressed in relation to my character aad public services. 1 tun wholly unable to convey in words, the nature and oxtent of my feelings on the present occasion. My situation is novel iudeod. Instead of meet ing with a cold reception, from having been the instrument of the loss of party power, 1 find my- suif the subject of the most rtattermg distinction from this respectable assemblage of my political friends. Had tho offering, w hicli is now made of their good will and confidence, followed iny in duction into office, it would uot have been re ceived. I have no regard whatever for the hon ors attcu.lnnt upon elevated Btatious. Aud yet my ambition is perhaps as ardent as others. 1 seek but to deserve and acquire, from my couu- trymeu, the uaiuo of an honest man and faithful public servant. Your approbation of my con duct has been therefore too gratifying, to enable me to find expressions for my gratitude. Aud yet 1 would, if it were possible, render to this company a brief vindication of the course of poli cy which 1 have attempted to pursue in adminis tering die Executive Department, and state some of the causes which have led to the result of the late election of Governor. in my inaugural address, I stated to my fel- low-citiacns, that I considered myself the Chief Magistrate of the State, and not of a party.— For this expression 1 have received umnoaswed abuse. It is known familiarly to all of you, that the heated party strife which had arrived at its acme in 1825, had, for some years, gradually sub sided, as the measures of Governor Troup, in defence of the rights of the State, proved success ful. The leader of the oppositiou party had re moved from tho State. I had received a large- majority ofthe votes of that party. I then hoped that the time had arrived, when divisions among the people, arising from the quarrels and conflict ing ambition of individuals, which had so long disgraced the State, might be healed, and parties formed upon principlo alone. As one moans of efiecung this object, 1 have endeavored to fill all the oflicex in the gift of the Exccuuve, with such perjous as were supposed to be bost qualified to discharge their duties, without regard to party distinctions. It was in tho ob servance of this rule, that 1 had hoped to satisfy uvery one of tho sincerity of the determination which 1 load expressed, of bring the Governor of tho State aad uot of a party. I havo however been dis ippointed, as is now known to every ouc Too many unworthy persous had continually profited hy tho violence ofthe contest for party supremary, to bo disposed to respect arule which excluded them from tho rewards to which they had been accustomed, for their successful support of candidates for office. Nameroas applications were made to me for rewards for such services upon my entering into office—-all have been disap pointed. 1 have sought for public officers among those only, w ho were known to bo worthy of con fidence. I have considered tho claims of all ap plicants lessened hy the act of asking. Mauy of those who hear me, and who have been familiar with the coarnc which 1 have pursued, are aware of the bitter opposition which I have received from disappointed applicants of both parties. 1 have acted •«ithout looking to personal consequences, and cannot but feel gratified that I can say with perfect sincerity, on this occasion, that I havo not used the power which was placed in my bauds hy the people, ia one imtsnce, to aid in tho accom plishment of any selfish purpose. All who hear mo are fully aware of the extraor dinary respon* bility which has devolved upon me in consequence of our relations with the Cho- rokees. The extension of tho jurisdiction of the State over tho Indians, tho discovery of gold mines of great value in tha land occupied by them; the right of tbo pco| lo to have those lanes distributed without the extinguishment of tho In dian title; the possession token of tho imues by thousand* of persons, anil chiefly from other 8tate«, in violation of the right* of the State, and regardless of the will of the Indians, all became 07“ W> arc authorized to an- notmee M. K. CHERRY as a candidate for Co- i »»«»*<» fMfe«« abiorb- f gu>;er«st wqUi tho rouer of Bibb ceticty. “ 2? ! people, ahotriji efftr! entered The ExtCWfr Of- portant matters, have been the constant themo of opposition ever since, tuid the most operative cause ofthe loss of my election. And yet, extra ordinary as it may appear, the opinions which haye thus deprived me of the confidence of my fellow-citizen., were at the timo they were com municated to the Legislature, fully approved by the present Governor. I knew that iu opposing the immediate distri bution of the lands of tho Cherokres, without re gard to their rights; in recommending the appro priation of tho valuably gold mines to relieving thu people of taxation, making internal improve ment, and extending the benefits of education lo all classes of society; and in advising the repeal ’of the law which subjected our Indian population to a deprivation of much of their property by im proper means, I was opposing the strongest pre judices, and most selfish feelings of the thought less and avaricious. I havo uot however been accustomed to throw out feelers, to learn the in dication of public sentiment, previous to express ing my thoughts on auy subject, much less when official duty required their open avow-si. The 0- piuiens which were communicated to the Legisla ture, upon these subjects, have, however, been grossly misrepresented. Thousands ofour citi zens have by the operation of one or two corrupt presses, been made to believo that I was opposed to the acquisition of our Indian lands, and had in sulted the poor hy slating that they were unfit to partake ol the benefits to he derived from the gold mines, in common with other classes of the •ommunity. The authors of those charges knew them to be false, mid the whole course of my public aud pri vate life, I trust, is testimony against them; but in popular governments like ours, there will al ways he found persons, who are ready to avail themselves of such base means of acquiring offi ces. I take this opportunity of avowing, (what I have often stated privately,) that I had no indi vidual interest or desire to continue in offico; that I have been only anxious to do what duty to the State required of mo, and that I uow feel that 1 have no cause to regret my defeat, except as it may affect injuriously the measures of the Gov ernment ; and as it wrests the administration from the hands of those with whom I have ever acted, aud upou the success of whoso principles depends tho honor, safety, aad character of tho State. Notwithstanding the difficulty which I find of expressing myself uuder my present crabarass- mont, I am yet anxious to add something furth er iu explanauon of the measures of my admin- stration. In opposing the immediate survey and distribution of the Cherokee lands, I have been influenced uot only by what was considered jus tice to oar Indiaa population, hut hy what wag dm- to the present Administration of tho Gene . al Government. The firmness w ith whch Gen eral Jackson lias sustained his policy of remov ing the Indian tribes from the States, and placing them in the only situation in which thoir existence can be continued, or in which they can acquire the art of civilized life, his prompt ac knowledgment of the rights of this State to ex tend its laws over ail its territory, aud the ex ertions which he has made, and is now making to remove the Cherokces from beyond our limits, impose upon us the strongest obligation to avoid the adoption of any policy which would be cal culated to bring us mto collision with the Uni ted States. Lpon no subject have stronger ef forts been made to excite the prejudices of the people against General Jackson, and to prevent his re-election, than his disposition to do justice to Georgia. And shall we give effect to these unprincipled efforts,: by adopting such meas ures as must either sacrifice our best friends, or force him, under the pressure of public opinion, to resist their execution? Gratitude and policy both forbid. Among the singular circumstances which have been attendant upon tho late election, it is not thu least remarkable, that the presses iu this State, which have supported my successor, be cause he was iu favor of the immediate sur vey and distribution of tho Indinn lands, and the Northern presses opposed to General jack- son, under the pretence that ho was disposed to aid this State in depriving the Chcrokecs of their rights, have made my defeat a common cause of triumph. For the purpose of defeating tho re-election of Gen. Jackson, it has been stated, that lie has re fused to enforce the nou-iutercourso law, and thereby enabled the authorities of this Stale toop- f iress the Cherokces, and take possession of their ands. Although this charge has been made in all the papeis opposed to Gen. Jackson, it is ut terly false. At no time whatever has the Chero kee territory been so perfectly secured from in trusion from tho whites, os under the operation of the present laws. It may he also proper that I should notice a charge which has been made directly against myself, hy tho same papers, together with those in this State which have advocated the election of my successor, in relation to my conduct towards the Missionaries, who were residents among the Cherokces. By tho law now in force, no white person, however respectable, has tho right to mtrudu upon tho Cherokee, territory. Those white person! of good character, who were read ing among the Indians, when that law was passed, had the special privilege granted them to continuo their residence. In order, however, to prevent the abuse of this privilege, by enabling such per sons to thwart the policy of tho General Govern ment, and to oppose the execution of the laws of this State, a condition was imposed upon them, that they should take an oath to support its Con stitution and laws.—Whatever punishment the Missionaries have suffered, has bet a sought for by themselves, by the open and direct violation of a law which w as intended for their benefit. Not an act has been done lor tha purpose of oppressing them. They have not been asked to take an oatb contrary to their conscientious opinions; nor have those who are now in tho Penitentiary been offered a pardou upon condition that they would tako any oath whatever, hut simply on the pro mise of their removal from tho territory. There has been oue act of my administration which I regret to perceive has been misunderstood by some of my triends. It has been suppbscd that ia directing the Agent ot' the Stato to con tinue to arrest Indians for trespassing upon the goid mines, after the decision of a Judge of the Superior court, that they coaid not be punished for so doing, it was nty intention to oppose the judicial authority.—The law imposed upou me a particular duty. That daty terminated when tho judicial authority commenced. It was uot intended by my orders to the Agent, not so under stood by him, that ho should arrest any Indian who had bccu discharged by the Court, unless for a repeated offence. The Judicial and Legisla- tive depurtm -uts ore in collision, and hot tho Exocntive rod Judicial I regret that I bare not been able to command my own Iccimgs »u,‘nci mtly, on Uses occasion, to offer what 1 was desirous of douig, in vindica tion of my administration s# the Eseraivo Be sc.i judgment directs aud coascicuco-approves. The Congressional ekciiin—We are informed! of a most unexpected vacancy ia Congress. After Judge Clayton had been thrown off'by hj» party, aud superseded on tho bench by Mr. Dougherty, he voluntarily, openly, repeatedly declared to Judge Schley aad his friends, that ho would uot bo a candidate, und that he would support Judge Schley for tho vacancy. But re gardless ol'h-.s reputation for truth aud consis tency, ho has already violated his plighted word, and faithlessly become a candidate for ibe of fice, for which ho had explicitly promised his support to another. On what prit -tSr principle con wo expect that man to bo faithful to his country, who is faithless to his fellow citizens? v Independent of nil other eousidcruUons, {fro decision of Judge Clayton against tho attempt by Georgia to protect tho goldmines, should forth an insuperable barrier ngaiust his rising to a seat in Congress. According to that decision, every lndiau lias a right, unmolested to dig far gold, wherever ho may please throughout tho Cherokee territory. If ho has a right to gath er the precious metals, with his own hands, fro has an equal right to employ other laborers, white or black, 111 this profitable business. lo defiance of tho penal laws of Georgia, designed to prevent trespasses on the mines, this decisieu invites to the golden harvest, aU tho world, be sides her own citizens. If sustained, it muss greatly strengthen the reluctance of tho Chcro- xoes to remove to the fertile lands of the West, although they abound in game. If sustained, wo apprehend that it will rivet the Indians to the territory, aud that the gold region will never become the property of thu people of Georgia., At present wo impeach not the motives ct Judge Clayton, in this transaction; but a mao entertaining doctrines which form thu basis of Itis decision, is opposed to the iutcrest of tins State, aud should uot be entrust ! by us with a seat in the councils of the Confederacy. Itis ascertained, that tho Choroket-s are preparing to test, in the .Supreme Court of tho United States, tho validity of the claims of Georgia-. . When they shall have instituted their case befjro that Federal Tribunal, th -ir counsel will sicyo with avidity, and proclaim with triumph, this decision of a Georgia Judge in their favor: operat ing against his own country, and thus wearina the semblance of singular disinterestedness, it will bo received with deferential regard, by tho Judge® presiding in that court, and will have great weighs inleadingtoa similar decision against us. Lit the people of Georgia now elect Judge Clayton to one of the highest offices in their gift, and this act will affix their seal to his imlgm: n», and, will rat fy it before tha we.Id. The decision of ouo ofour own Judges, tbm sustained by tl« strongest proof of the approbation ofour people, will bo regarded as conclusive evidence against tbo validity of our claim. In the halls of Congress it will furnish the strongest argument, and tlio keenest satire, to those designing politicians, and those misguided fanatics who so often asstyl the reputation of our State. When they insolent ly accuse us of robbing and oppressing the poor Indian, they will point to this Judge, as their wit ness, and w ill appeal to his decision in proof of their bitter calumnies against his country. And how shall we meet their argument and their sa tire, if by our votes at tbo approaching election, we sustain Judge Clayton, nnd his decision 7 Jl* we regard the honor nnd interest of the State, wo will not give countenance aud confirmation tojtfi doctrines ; but will endeavor to counteract their pernicious influence. Duty to our country impe riously requires, that we shall oppose the election of a man, whose success will be the eondeijinas. tion of that country.
