It must |jb consolatory to overy Amer ican, and ill fact to till, wherever they mny ho, who regard with anxiety the progress and prospects of free principles through iho wot Id, that there is a sanatory influ ence in otar institutions, which, if it can not prevent, can heal tYithout difficulty ot danger those maladies, to which all pub lic bodies aro front time to lime, liable. In looking bafk upon lint history of our ca reer and prosperity, mid the generation has not vet disappeared which laid the loundaiioiJi ol'hoi It, many questiones verat/t appear, each of which ngilaied the com munity iu ht own briel duy, and some of which, either frotn tho magnitude of the interests involved, or from the excitement that prevailed, threatened the most seri ous consequences to tho stability of the government, and the prosperity of the country. But by the favor of Providence, oao after another these have passed a- way, leaving our Union and our institu tions unscathed. The present dny is not without its own share oi'doubtful Hnd dif ficult questions. Let us hope that they will be discussed in a spirit of mutual for bearance, and arranged ill a spirit of mutu al iiccominudatioii. Our nutioiml motto should remind us, that we havo become one from many, and if tho example and the blessings, which this Union has pro- . , ducud, are to be perpetuated, we must C ^ c "\" -<> -fay. in u leeling of patriotism, the true power of cohesion. Upon tho vir'ure and intelligence of the people tve must rely in eur seasons of dan ger. They havo thus far b<-en the ark of safety. It were presumptuous to doubt, that they will be most efficacious when they may be most wanted. Tito “ Cherokee question,” ns it hns been familiarly called, is onfe of those, which have divided public opinion. It may bo examined without ofTeuce to any one. Either to the State which claims ju risdiction, to the Kxoculivo of the general government, which lias submitted its sen timents to Congress and thu people, or to' the judicial tribunals, which have been called upon to investigate it, and to adju dicate cases arising under it. Wo pro pose, with that frJodum, which is the pri vilege of an_American citizen, but, at the saute limn, wilt/that respect which is due to thosq high authorities, to review and discuss this subject. Truth is always val- t'wfclr, and it is best attained by diligent enquiry. Thu public mind will eventual ly decide this matter, as it has decided so many others; wisely and safely; nnd in (lie moan tiiuc, overy contrilmiion, however humble, to t lie general stock of information, may be usclul, and ut any rate, will bo Iturmloss.

They cannot exist in indepen dent attitudes. The effort of tire one is to subdue the earth, to extend over it tha blessings of cultivation und civilization, and provide a permanent residence fdr themselves and their posterity. The ef fort qf the oilior is to repel the invader who comes nmong them. To commeocq and continue a series of ways, in which barbarous trophies of victory may bo ob tained, and barbarous glory acquired. In which warriors may go forth to plunder, to devastation, to death, and return to ex- * hibit tlieir spoils, and recount their fonts. Return, to strike thepost in I heir nativevil- lage, and tell thu deeds, which have spread ruin over the land of the whito man. To stimulate themselves aud others to fresh exertions, by the applause of (he surroun ding multitude, always more generous, as the work of the spoiler is niote cruel. It must not be forgotten, that abstract speculations upon topics like these, seldom promote the cause ol truth. The investi gations are eminently practical, depth-, ding, for tlieir solution upon the Conmipti souse ot mankind, applied to the rchnivo situation of the parlies. Principles, r at- ried to tlieir extreme, will be found hVcon- sistent with tho best established l egutilftSus of society.

We | will not here enquire, tvltolher, in taking ; possession of iho country, in reclaiming ' it from a state of nature, mid in laying the foundation of that it.vuluuble heritage, j which has come down to us, they were I r i c lit or wrong. Wc shall endeavor here- ! alter to show, that the great command, to be fruitful und multiply, und replenish the ■ enrth and subdue it, has been considered ! as one of universal obligation. That u civilized community has u right to go forth i anti take possession of unoccupied and un- ! cultivated regions. That the hunting mi- j grations of nomadic tribes do not consti | lute such an occupancy, us ought to givo I llieiu nn exclusive title to more territory, | tliuu is necessary for their comfortable subsislance, in the mode to which they have been accustomed. That Vatti-I, tire great expounder- of the law of nations, was right, und so were his nssocintes in ihis investigation right, when they main tained, ” that the cultivation of the soil was mi obligation imposed by nature upon ; lions. Feeble indeed, would be such barriers against the tide of Indian power, impelled by Indian passions. Under such circumstances, jurisdiction is well assumed, und its extent must de pend upon the opinion of the domluent party. The doctrine is well stated by > the Supreme Court. “ The U. States,” says Chief Justice Marshall, “maintain, as nil othois have maintained, that disco very gave on exclusive right to extinguish the Indian title of occupancy, either by purchase or conquost: and gavo them al so a right to such a degree of sovereign-. ty, as the circumstances of the people would allow them to exorcite.” Wltst thut degree of sovereignty is, must be determined by the civilized, and not by tha communities. The latter are incapable of weighing the cir cumstances, und of appreciating their im portance. And the very necessity of assuming jurisdiction, so inconsistent with the ordinary principles of public inter course, is founded upon the moral inca pacity of one of tho parties. “ I know of no half way doctrine ou this subject,” says Judgo Spencer.— “We have either an exclusive jurisdic tion pet vailing every part of the Suite, in cluding the territory hold by iho Indians, or tve have no jurisdiction over them, while noting within their reservation.” Theic is no principle short of this, nliich will stand tho test of ciaininalioa. Nor is irnecefsarily harsh in its applications. The nature of tho intercourse, already i described, would lead to the inevitable de struction of the tvoakor power, unless Its operation wero stayed by the intervention of other considerations. Every thing, short of this ultimate rusort, is so much go ined for the cause bUumn nit v.
