fodm Rtialions
The militia of the Stole, under tbe com
mand of Gao. Fioyd, who were employed af
tbe time of your last setaioo in protecting the
iobabitaoti of the counties adjoining Florida,
succeeded by tbeir constant activity and
courage in dri' ing tbe Indiana from the
Okefabokee Swamp, and their other fast
nesses, eo effectually that the endangered
part of the country has remained in security
ever since.
The act passed at yonr last session to pro
vide for the payment of ibe militia who were
called into the serviceftf (he Stele during the
year 1638. to repel the invasioe of tbe Indi
ans fmm Florida, has been carried into exe
cution by this Department, es felly as pesst
Me. The appropriation of fifty thoulsnd
dollars proved insufficient to satisfy all the
claims arising under il. Thro companies of
Lowndes coenty remain unpaid, and the ac
counts fur the supplies furnished all the
companies who were in service in that coun
ty. The report of Col. King, the Com mia-
sionar appointed under the ect, will show the
manner in which the appropriation has been
expeoded, and tbe probable amount of its de
ficiency.
I regret to inform the Legislature that the
Department hsa failed in Its effort* to procure
from the United States Government the re
payment of the fifty thousand dollars which
has been thus advanced by the Stele, or the
^^^gltich is yet due to the milirie (br tbeir

Ac. ffic- All of which, (hey are determined to mM
plication wa* first made to the Secretary of
War, to pay tba militia, tbe answer received
was. that the restrictive terms of the law then
ia force, making the appropriations fur tbe
suppression or Indian hostilities, did cot ad
mit of the payment of such troopo, aad that
the aaibomy for that purpose must he given
by a special act of Coogreas. The President
and Secretary of War failed, however, to
bring the subject to tbe view of Congress, at
the opening of its session ; and although it
wa* afterwards brought before Congress by
the delegation from this State, no such spe
cial act was passed ; neither wss the general
act making appropriations for the suppression
of Indian hosttliiies, so drawn up as tu avoid
the difficulty which had occurred under tbe
previous law, or to provide in any other man-
oer for roakiog tbe required payments.—
That tbit Siale has just reason to complain
of this cooduet of the authorities of tbe Uni
ted Slates, is evident from the facta, that be
fore the Stale ordered any troops inio its ser
vice, General Jessup, then commanding io
Florida, was informed of the danger which
threatened the inhabitants of the counties
adjoining that Territory : That he promised
to afford them protection : That when the
Indian* entered the Okefanokee Sxvamp,
soon thereafter, in sufficieot force lo endan
ger tbe ohole cf tbe neighbouring popula
tion, no means bad been provided by Gen.
Jessup, or any other officer of the United
States, to repel them : That the emergency
rendered it iadispensable that the militia of
the State should be ceiled out for that pur
pose : That information of the invaMon of
the State by the Iodians from Florida, wes
immediately communicated officially lo the
President of the United States, Secretary of
War, and to Gen. Taylor, who had a short
time before succeeded to Gen. Jessup’* com
mend in Florida, with a pressing call for as*
sistance aod protection : That no greater
force was called out by the authorities of the
State than the extent of the danger required,
nor retained in service longer than was ne
cessary : That the General Government is
bound by the Constitution to protect the
8tates against invasion; and that it is its prac
tice to pay the militia ol the States forperlirrm-
ing that service whenever it could oot have
been performed by the troops of the United
States.
In pursuance of other provisions of the
some act already referred tn, Augustin H.
Mansell, E*q. was appointed s commissioner
to audit the claims arising under it in the
Cherokee counite* and middle Georgia, and
William 8. Rockwell. E*q. commissioner
|for the counties west of the Ocmulgee river
1 and south of the road leading from Mtllerlge-
I ville to Columbus. Tbe commissioners
! found great difficulty in aoditing the claims
j presented to them, as did this Department in
I allowing them as " just and well founded.”
| None had io their inception any lien upon
the Treasury of the State as having been
created uuder the authority of ita law*, or in
accordance with any general principle ren
dering it obligatory upon the State to pay
them, aod could only therefore he determined
upon by tiie strict letter of the law which di-
rectfrd their settlement. Copie* of the report
of the commissioner* are laid before the Le
gislature, and will ahow io what manner
they have diaebarged the duty assigned
them.
The Legislature was informed at ita last
session, that the account* against the Uaiied
States, for payments made by this State, to
it* militia aod volunteers, under the acts of
1896 and 1837, had been presented to the
War Department for reimbursement, accom
panied by the request that they should be
passed u|>on aa soon as possible ; and that
the Senators and Representative* from thi*
State in Congress, had also beeo requested
to ascertain what portion Of these accounts
would be paid by the War Department, aod
to apply to Coaf rets for the passage of a
special law, to authorise lbe payment of the
remainder.
These accounts were placed in tbe posses
sion of tbe Secretary of War, far adjustment
in tbe month of June, 1838- In the month
, f January, thereafter, having received Be
information that any progress had been made
jn their settlement,'nod perceiving thnt the
subject hatl not been brought before Con-

It is submitted to the wisdom of tbe Legis

this spprebensiun cannot but prove needless,
when it is considered that f 1.320,148 10

if it should be abandoned : That the line of
the road is tbe cheapest and shortest practi
cable route by which tbe West ftnd South-
west can be connected with the Atlantic;
and that its great cost will therefore create
an additional security that it will enjoy tbe.
mono|Hily of its advantages : That it is dae
to her euterprising citizens who are construct
ing the Georgia. Central, and Monroe R.oil
roads: That the State should finish the
Western and Atlantic Railroad ; That as the
Government of the State holds life political
opinion iht-t the General Government ha* no
constitutional (tower to make infernal im
provements within the &iate, it offes it to it
self and the other member* of thq Union, to
execute a work uecessary for the prosperity
of several, and Bdvantageout to all, nnd
which none can execute but Georgia : That
the road will furnivh the only means by
which the heavy sod valuable productions
of lbe Cherokee counties can reach a profits
ble market: That it will connect the State
with one of the most extensively fertile coun
tries in the world, so as to introduae into eve
ry part of il supplies of the first necessity, at
all limes aod in any quantity which may be
demanded : That it will give to our cities a
large export trade in (It* productirius of the
Western aad Sootb-weeiern States, and an
equally beneficial trade io supplying their

tbe great thoroughfare for travellitic between
tbe South-west sod the Atlantic: That it
will strengthen the bonds of the Union ; add
to the means of mutual defence and proiec-

1*1 of this State; advance its general pros

that if any banks hsd gone into operation

creased the derangement of the csrrescy
and monied embarrassment*; and becsoss it
gives to the I^gisisture aa opportunity of
repealing the law before any rights are ac
quired under it. As long as the currency of
the country is in hank notes, it* proper rsgu-
lation is of so much importance to every in
dividual and the public, that tbe Stste ought
to retain sufficient power over it to protect the
community from its abuses. The Legisla
ture should ascertain what amount of capital
it required to furnish the circulating mediant,
sufficient fur the purposes of trade, where
such capital ought to be employed, and to
grant the privilege of using it to such psrsoo*
sod upon such conditions as would best se
cure a sound currency.
