CHEROKEE QUESTION. As an independent State, whose boundaries oro distinctly ascertained, over all of the territory em braced within these limits, Georgia 1 zeroises, nud will continue to cxcrciso the jurisdiction apper taining to her sovereignty. Tlie right ot this ju risdiction she has never yielded, in any compact or constitution; ft was not.plaecd under tho con trol, or subject to the limitation of tlie federal government, 'either by tlie Articles of confedera tion, or tho existing federal couslituluh; it is a right which sho did not grant on entering into tb: eonfOuci'Aey; “nd which is.reserved to.her iu its original plenitude. If the United States, in their treaties with the tribe of Indians, have entered in to stipulations that conflict with the rights of tit? amte. iu making s#ch engagements, tho general 1 government lias transcended its legitimate pow ers; nnd its faith will he better preserved by can- colling such unauthorized stipulations, nud grant ing a suitable indemnity to the savages whom it m»v have deceived, than by trampling on th riglits of one of the States, hy which it was crea ted, whom to n!d and protect, is its first nnd high est obligation. By refusing to appear before tho Supreme Court, Georgia has ildhicd tho authority of that tribunal to interrupt the regular operation of tier laws within her own- limits, nml to sever aud toarfrotn her, ap important portion dflicr ter ritory; and it is not uow a question, whether she will acquiesce in the-most unexpected aud extra ordinary decision, which has bccii made in tho case of Worcester against tho Staid. Oil this great subject, sho will not be entrapped nnd hound hy the subtle technicalities set up by the court: but will steadily pursue that direct and onward Course, which her rights and her iutercsU pre- crilic. * • , . The tjuestionbetween Georgia, t|io Indians and tho white residents of tlie Cdunty of Cherokcu, it of a local and domestic characters it affects not the interests of any other Statu, nor tho welfare of the Union. If tb? citizens of oilier States eh-ii si: In reside within 11 nr limits, iliey must sub tnil to tile laws hy which onr citizens are gov erned: if tliey violate tlioso laws, they must suf fer the punishment which would he inflicted on our own citizens for similar offences. Tho riglits, privileges artd exemptions of Indians fixing xvitliin 'hose limits, Georgia will herself adjust f m ciplei'Of nntiouni and practical humanity; and »ho will not consent to any interference on til, important ami deliento subject. We now proceed to r, ,-ricf hxaininatieu.of the question ;,pon its merits. Notwithstanding the ^reat boldness wo feel in the justness of our cause, wo frankly acknow ledge that sve approach so momentous a subject xxitli some degree of diffi dence—because 11 inrgirniid very intelligent por tion of the people of tlie oilier States entertain o- pinions ami feelings adverse to our oxvu. Without time or space to go fully into tho details of the documents nnd doctrines bearing 011 the whole case, wc feel it n dutx to present our just claim, to our brct|p‘cu of other States—to appeal to their candor, sound judgment nnd patriotism—while wo present before them a few strictures mi some df the leading points of this,important case, ns exhibited by tho decision itself, aided by such lights ns wo hastily draw from the Stales, as cx- pi'cjxly laid down 111 tlie articles nf Confederation, aud the Constitution of the United States. We propose ns briefly, ns consistent with clear ness, to consider the subject iu tho following as pects: , 1st. Tho rights acquired by tho Colonics (now States,) ns distinct political communities, upon the establishment of tndepeudonee over the terri tories and persons withiu their limits. 2d. The reserved rights of the States under the Constitution of tlie United Slates. 3d. The rights'claimed for those Missionaries, under tho Act of Congress of 1819, to civilize the “Indian tribes adjoining the frontier settlement! of the United State!.’” These appoar to bo tbo leading features of the case. And we hesitate not to declare, that wc have been surprised by the deductions of the Court from its owu premises—that the conclusions from them are broad—entirely unwarranted, and therefore un-atisfactoiy—and that, notwithstand ing the loariiiug and talents of the Court, tho de cision is not ouly erroneous, but the opinion tho mow absurd, and the weakest wc havo ever secu fiom the Chicf.Justice. 1st. As to the rights acquired by the Colonies (now States) when their Independence was ad mitted by tlie British Crown. The Chief Justice argnes, that on the first set tlement of North Amcricu, the only right claimed by tho crowded heads of Europe, was tlie right of pre-emption—That this wt.s o regulation le- 3 tivecu Europeans, which did not affect the-riglus of tho aboriginals—at the same time, admitting that the settler* of nny particular colony claimed and exercized the right of purchasing hut Is fro m tho ludiaus, in exclusion of nil other foreign pow ers. He relies strongly upon various views ai d proclamations, submitted at different times—and strongly insists upon a proclamation of the Brit ish Crown, issued iu 17(13. in which it is declared as follows:—“Wo do further declare it to bo out 1 royal will nnd pleasure,/or the present, as afore said, to reserve, under our sovereignly, protectior; and dominion for the use of tho Indians, all the laud,” &c.—“And wo do hereby forbid, cn pain of our displeasure, all our living subjects, irom making any purchases whatever, or taking ai.y possession of any of the lauds above rtsi rv J, without special leave and license.for that jmrpote first obtained.” We'merely give these as untr.- pies of tlie Chief Justice’s train of argument aid elect thorn ns among the strongest adduced tit favor of his conclusions. Granting the full form of these premises, to what conclusions do they lt- gitiinately load ? Most clearly, that the discov erers, or conquerors, claimed a right, not only 1 over tho persons of the Indians debarring otlur nations from, nil intercourse with them, hut nbo • over their territory claimed hy virtue of tlie right of discovery claimed by virtue of tin- right of ili - covery. No other power had the right to inter fere. hi the proclamation of 17(53, the -‘royal will nud pleasure” tvas only “declared," “for tho present.” Tho right to niter the roynlclnim and tho royal policy was strictly reserved hy this guarded expression—"/or the present". But this right xvns reserved under tho "sovEnEiaNTrs raoTkcrioN, r.yd dominion" of tho. Crown. Tho jurisdiction thus reserved, could be'reclaim- pd from tho aboriginals at any lime, nnd the laud purchased and possessed hy “leave nml licinse,” granted hy tho King. It is seriously contended; that this measure, adopted ns ti mere temporary ’ policy, was a surrender of the claims of the Crown to tlie land, which IfacI hecii expressly granted to tho large Proprietors of that day, such ns Lord Baltimore, Willtnm Penn, nnd o'thcrsl No; tho express grants of immense district* of country flat ly contradict stick an absurd interpretation—wo say absurd—because the crowned heads of Eu rope nover otico dreamed of auy thing btit abso lute dominion over tho soil and persoris of tho aborigines, at their royal will nnd pleasure.—The rights of the Indians were expressly called reserv ed riglits—rights reserved Jty Kings, who hnd not tlie' shadow of a doubt, that tite lauds, being theirs, tliey had tho right either to dispose of Or withhold them as they saw proper. If Judge Marshall is to determine the right of tho Indian, or tho rights of. Georgia, hy the “divino right” of Kings, their claims most assuredly hang on a flimsy thread. Tnkiug therefore the Chief Justi ce’s own premises, wc can legitimately nvojd the conclusion, that the Indian rights dependant "{ton tho will of the Crown, representing the sovereign power of Great I!ritahi v “This, says lie, was the settled state of things! xvhen tho war of the Revolution commenced.” Aftor detailing various treaties, Iaxvs,.&c., the Chief Justice says:—“They (the Indians) had been nriv.ngo,! the proto-tie:: of Great Bri tain; but tbo extinguishment of tho Lritish powers iu their neighborhood, nnd tire establishment a( that of (he United States iu this plnce, led natural ly to tho declaration, 011 the part of tho Cltcro- kecs, that they were under the protection of jlie United 'Stntes, nnd of no Other power. They as sumed the relation with the United Stater, which had before subsisted with Great Britain.” He then goes on to cito various laws, acts nod ar rangements, to show that the Cherokccs were an “independent nation." He states that, “Cnu- gress dissolved out connection with tlie mother country, nnd declared tltcso Colonics to he inde pendent Stales”—that.vat ious compacts, niid sti pulations )vcro attempted hy Congress without tiny written definition ofjioxvers, nnd that Trea ties were actually made with France.” Then, he conies, without any thing to support it,' to tho sweeping assertion, that /rent tho same necessity (what necessity?) oil tho sdinc principles, Con gress assumed (!) the Utnungemcul of the Jndiril affairs, first in tho tinmc of the Colonies, after wards iu the name of the United Stales.” Tlie docision admits the conquest of fte British hy the United Colonies, nud that the Cherokccs were hostile aud took up arms against tite Colonies. This is an important feature, in as much as hi right of conquest w.»< ndded to the right of disco very and settlement of Georgia, anti all other rights claimed by the Crown of ((rent Britain. With this coudeused outline of the Judge's ar gument, ourreadersnre fully prepared for tndtoii- clusiou we niul at. It is tins: By couqucriiig tho Ehglish and their Indian nllies-^-nud snaking off tho yoke, firat tho Colonies, afterwards States, of the Coufede"?''”, st independent, sovereign, distinct, political "bodies, succeeded to ail the rights, powers and privileges fonnerlv'possessed byffhe British Crown, within each of liieir respec tive limits—and to more than xvns possessed by the Crown over the Cherokccs, by actual con quest.- Theyxvere then full aud complete sove reigns, in the broadest sense of the term, nnd and cuuid, of right, do nil that the Declaration of Indepeudefico asserts they could do.
