Secretary ofli ar to Col. Montgomeryt.
Department of War,
March 14th, 1830.
Sir: Intelligence is received here,
that, recently, the Cherokee Indians
have undertaken to remove the white
settlers, by virtue of an authority em
anating from themselves, and under
their government: that difficulties
have arisen in consequence of it; that
one ol the Indians has been killed
and three made prisoners and led oft
to Georgia.
Soon as the information was re
ceived, orders were dispatched to the
commanding officer at Fort Mitchell,
to move with such dispusable force
as could he spared, to the point of
disturbance, and adopt measures for
preserving peace and quiet in the fron
tiers. lie will speedily as possible
arrive and until then, you are direct
ed to instruct both whites and Indians
to forbear further acts of aggression}’
or otherwise exemplary punishment
will be inflicted for breach of the laws.-
Ihe Cherokee Indians, at the
commencement of the present admi
nistration, were given distinctly to
understand, that the right to enforce
obedience to the laws ofthe United
States, within their confines, did nol
.„i.— c i- ii , no. im.i •
cnmstances, would be conceded td
them. They were informed that
the Government bad neither the pow
er nor the disposition to permit any
of her citizens to bo pronounced
guilty of the infraction of her lawsy
by any other tribunals than her ovvu. 1 ’
Notwithstanding this, under the pro
visions of a treaty of more than forty
years existance, they have arrogat
ed to themselves the right of sitting;
in judgement on our citizens; of
driving them and their families from
their homes, and consuming thei*
houses ; and this, too, is done at t
time when, through you, the nation
was informed that measures to un
iloi'fitmul anil iloirrmiup fbnir rirrbt^
were m progress; and that, soon af
the facts were ascertained, step*
would be taken by the President to
put an end to all complaints ; they
should have waited. Prcc : pitancy
never leads to the correct ascertain
ment of justice and right, it but pro
duces greater difficulties.
The President has witnessed ting
proceeding with regret and consider*
the course taken by the Cherokees
as highly exceptionable. He charge*
you to repeat to them what heretofore
they have been told, that they cannot
be permitted to execute our laws— y
those high trusts which of right de
volve upon this Government. The
U. States claim to be judges of the
conduct of its citizens, and ’’the right
to punish nficn it is deserved; but,
they will uot grant, this authority to
any other power, whether foreign
r vvi hin their own limits.
lo put an end io the perplexing
question of boundary between the*
Cherokee nation and the State of
Georgia; and, that all the facts ne
cessary to a decision might be accu
rately obtained, a special Cocnrnia
sioner, of great worth and excellence
of character, Gen. John Coffee, was
despatched to the disputed boundary.
He was directed to determine, upon
all the testimony that could be ob
tained, where, previous to 1821, wa
“the boundary between the Creeks and
Cherokcos.
The Cherokces. as ground of their
claim, assert that, by a conventional
agreement between themselves and
the Cre-hr, in ISgj, aline was rs.
greed upon as the true boundary of
seperation ; and that this is a line
drawn from the Buzzard roost, on
the Cbattahocchie river, westward
ly to Wills’ creek.
The argument and exception to
this on the other hand, as assumed
on the part of Georgia, is, that, by
the long established anti recognized
rules ofthis Government, one Indian
tribe cannot purchase, or acquire ti
tle in any way to the territory of an*
other. The extinguishment of In
dian land titles was alleged to he ex
clusively in the government of the
U. States. The argument is true
Great Britain asserted ;t; the U. S.
have maintained it; and the judicial
decisions of the country have confir.
y.ed its correctness. If the conren
