Washington. Feb. 5, 1827. I submit to the consideration of Congress, a letter from the Agent of the United States with the Creek Indians, who invoke the protection of the Government of the United States in defence of the rights and territory secured to that nation by the Treaty concluded at Washing ton, and ratified on the part of the United States, on the 22d of April last- The complaint set forth in this letter, that surveyors from Georgia have been employed in surveying lands within the Indian Territory as secured by that Treaty, is authenti ested fey information mofficinHy rc* ceived from other quarters, and there is reason to beiieve that one or more of the Surveyors have been arrested in their progress by the In dians. Their forbearance and re liance upon the good faith of the United States, will, it is hoped, avert scenes of violence and blood, which there is otherwise too much cause to apprehend will result from these pro ceedings By the oth section of the act of Congress of the 30th ot March, 1802 to regulate trade and intercouse with the Indian tribes, and to pre serve peace on the frontiers, it is provided that if any citizen of, or other person resident in the United States, shall make a settlement on any lands belonging, or secured, or granted by treaty with the Uni ted States to any Indian tribe, or shall survey or attempt to survey such lands, or designate any of the boundaries by marking trees or oth erwise, such offender shall forfeit a sum not exceeding one thousand dol lars, and suffer imprisonment not ex ceeding twelve months. By the JCthand 17th sections of the same statute, two distinct .processes arc prescribed, by either or both of which, the above enactment may be carried into execution. By the first, it is declared, to bo lawful for the military force of the United States to apprehend every person found in the Indian country, over and beyond the boundary line between the Uni ted States and the Indian tribes, in violation of any of the provisions or regulations of the act, and immedi ately to convey them in the nearest convenient and sjfc route to the ci vil authority of the United States, in someone of the three next adjoining States, or Districts, to be proceed ed against in due course of law. By the second, it is directed, that if any person charged with a viola tion of any of the. provisions or regu lations ot the act, shall be found within any of the United States, or either of their territorial districts, such offender may he there appre hended, and brought to trial in the same manner as if such crime or of fence had been committed within such State or District; and that it shall be the duty of the military force of the United States, when called up on by the civil magistrates, or any proper officer, or other person duly authorized for that purpose, and ha ving a lawful warrant, to aid and as sist such magistrates, officer or other persons so authoriz 'd, in arresting such offender, and committing him to safe custody for trial according to law. The first of these procssses is a dapted to the arrest of the trespas ser upon Indian Territories, on the spot, and in the act of committing the offenc . But, as it applies the action of the Government of the United States, places where the ci vil process of the law has no authori zed course, it is committed entirely to th functions of the military force to arrest the person of the offender and after bringing him within the f<-ach of the jurisdiction of the Courts, there to deliver him into custody for trial. The second makes the violator of the law amenable on ly after his offence. has been consum mated and when he has »eturu .1 within the civil jurisdiction of the Union. This process, in the first in stance, it merely ot a civil character, but may, in like manner, be enforc ed, by calling in, if necessary, the aid of the military force. Entertaining no doubt that, in the present case, the resort to cither of these modes of process, or to both was within the direction of the Ex ecutive authority, and penetrated with the duty of maintaining the rights of the Indians, as secured both by the treaty and the law, I conclu ded after full deliberation, to have recourse on this occasion in the first instance, only to the civil process. — Instructions have accordingly been given by the Secretary of War, to ihe Attorney and Marshall of the United States in the Districts of Georgia, to commence prosecutions against the surveyors complained of as having violated the law, while orders have at the same time been forwarded to the Agent of the Uni ted States, at once to assure the In dians, that their rights founded up on the treaty and the law, are recog nized by this Government, and will be faithfully protected, and earnest ly to exhort them? by the forbear ance of every act of hostility on their part, to preserve unimpaired, that r ght to protection secured to them by the sacred pledge of the good faith of this nation. Copies of these instructions and orders are herewith transmitted to Congress. In abstaining at this stage of the proceedings from the application of any military force, I have been gov erned by considerations, which will, 1 trust, meet the concurrence of the Legislature. Among them, one of paramount importance, has been, that these surveys have been at tempted, and partly effected under colour of legal authority from the State of Georgia. That the Sur veyors are therefore not to be view ed in the light of individuals and sol itary transgressors, but as the A gents of a Sovreign State, acting in obedience to authority which they believed to be binding upon them Intimations had been given that, should they meet with interruption thev would, at all hazards, he sus tained by the military force of the State, in which event, if the military force of the Union should have been employed to enforce its violated law a conflict must have ensued, which would, in itself, have inflicted a wound upon the Union, and have pre sented the aspect of one of these confederated States at. war with the rest. Anxious above all, to avert this state of things, yet, at the same time impressed with the deepest con viction of my own duty, to take care that the laws shali be executed, and the faith of the Nation preserved, 1: have used, of the means entrusted to the Executive for that purpose, only those which, without resorting to military force, may vindicate, the sanctity of the law, by the ordinary agency of the Judicial tribunals. It ought not, however, to be dis guised, that the act of the Legisla-! tureof Georgia, under the construc tion given to it by the Governor of that State, and the surveys made, or attempted by his authority, beyond the boundary secured by the Treaty at Washington, ofApril last, to the Creek Indians, are in direct violation of the Supreme Law of this land, set forth in a Treaty, which has re ceived ali the sanctions provided by the Constitution, which we have been sworn to support and main tain. Ilapply distributed as the sover eign powers of the People of this Union have been between their Gen eral and State Govermcnts, their history has already too often presen ted collisions between these divided j authorities, with regard to the ex tent of their respective powers. No instance, howe.ver, has hitherto oc curred, in which this collision has hern into a conflict of actual force, toother case is known to have happened, in which the appli cation of military force by the Gov erment of the Union has been pre scribed for the enforcement of a law, the violation of which has, with any single State, been prescribed by a Legislative act of the State. In the present instance, it is my duty to say, that, if the Legislative and Execu tive Authorities of the State of Georgia should perserve in acts of encroachment upon the tcritories se cured by a solemn Treaty to the In dians, and the mws of the Union remain unaltered, a superadded ob ligation even higher than that of hu man authority, will compel the Exe cutive of the United States to en force the laws, and fulfil thedutiesof the Nation, by all the force commit ted for that purpose to his charge. That the arm of military force will be resorted to only in the event of the failure of all other expedients provided by the laws, a pledge has been givt-n, by the forbearence to employ it at this time. It is submit ted to the wisdom of Congress to determine, whether any further act of legislation may be necessary or expedient to meet the emergency which these transactions may pro duce. JOHN QUINCY ADAMS. From the Nat. Intelligencer. Papers acco'upanying the President's Message. Check Agency, Jan. 15, 1827. Sir : A lew day siny, the little Prince complained to me that the Georgia Surveyors were surveying lauds West of the line of the laic GEORGIA SATESMAN, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1827. Treaty ; and at his r quest, I wrot»- to them, in his name, requiring th in to desist from surveying air, lands not ceded by the Treaty oi Washington ; but the Surveyors m regarding this demand as emanating! from competent authority, persists in their surveys to the line run In Georgia Commissioners, as the line between Georgia ami Alabama. Yesterday a number of chiefs, with the Prince at their head, requested me to write again to the Surveyor in their names, requiring of them to stop surveying the lands West of the line of the Treaty of Washington which I did in the most friendly terms. A Deputation of Chiefs ha accompanied the bearer of the letter with the avowed intention of stop ping the surveyors. The Chiefs have requested me t*. apprise you that the authorities of Georgia had extended their survey West of the line of the Treaty ot Washington; thereby violating the express stipulations of that instru ment ; which they held to be sacred and to implore the government to in terpose its authority to protect them in their rights under the Treaty. If Georgia is permitted to violate that Treaty with impunity, why no) not Alabama ? and they ask where are they to look for protection but to the government of the United States I have the honor to be, Your ob’t servant, JOHN CROWELL, Agent for I A. The Hon. James Barbour, Sec’y of War, Washington City. Department of War, ) Jan. 29th, 1827 \ To Col. John Crowell, Agent for the Creek Indians. Sir : I have received your letter of the 15th inst. conveying the in formation that the Georgia Surveyors were surveying lands West of the line of the late Treaty, and of the measures which have been taken by the little Prince and »thers to pre vent them ; also the message of the Chiefs, imploring the Government to interpose its authority, to protect them in their rights under the Trea ty of Washington. The President directs me to con vey to the Little Prince, and the head men, and warriors of the Creek Na tion, his assurances that he feels the binding obligation of the Treaty of Washington no less forcibly than they; and that it is his intention to execute faithfully every clause and condition thereof To this assurance he di rects me to add, further, that he will take immediate steps to secure to them all the rights as they are guar antied in said Treaty. But the Pre sident expects it of the Creek nation i that it will not frustrate his purposes by taking any steps of a hostile char-! acter themselves; and hq_ enjoins it on you so to counsel them in regard to this matter, as to induce tli m to rely upon the protection of the Unit ed States, and leave the controversy wholly to the Government. They have very properly made known their grievances, as becomes good people; and further it will be ex pected of them they will not go, but wait for such measures as the wis dom of the Government may devise to secure to them their rights as these are guatantied in the Treaty of Washington. I am, very respectfully, Your most ob’t servant, JAMES BARBOUR. Department of War. J January 29, 1827. $ Sir : Complaints have been made to the President by tlie Creeks, through the United States Agent, against the intrusions of the Survey ors of Georgia on their lands, guar antied to them by the Treaty con cluded vvith them at Washington, oi the 24th January, 1826. With these complaints they have united an ap peal to the President, calling for lys interposition to protect them in their rights, by causing this Treaty to be inviolably maintained. The preten sions under which these surveys are attempted are in direct violation o the Treaty, and, if persevered in, must lead to a disturbance of the public tranquillity. The Treaty o! Washington, like all other treaties which have received the Const tu tional sanction, is among the supreme laws of the land. Charged by the Constitution, with the execution ot the laws, the President will feel hin:- selfcaßipelled to employ, ifnecessary all the means under his control to maintain the faith of the natiou, by carrying the treaty into effect.

Department of War, ) January 30th, 1827. \ Sir : Official information has been .riven the President that certain ptr -ons, under the pretence of survey ing, have entered the lands of the Creek I di ms, directly in violation of • he late Treaty concluded with them at Washington, in January last, and directly in violation of the law of Congress regulating intercourse with :h • Indian tribes. The Chiefs and warriors of this i ibe have appealed to the President fur protection, by whom I am instruct ed to direct you, without a moment’s lelay.to proceed to obtain the prop er process with which to arrest them, which process you will cause to be delivered to the Marshal of the Dis trict, that they may he made amena ble to law. The orders of the Pre sident, as well as the importance of the object, relieve me from the neces sity of suggesting any additional motive for th pr mpt and euergetic discharge of your duty I have the honor to be. Your ob’t servant, JAMES BARBOUR R. W. Habersham, E q. Dist. Attorney, U. S. Savamiah. Department of War, > Jauuary 30, 1827. $ Sir ; Official information has been communicated to the President, that surveyors, acting under, it is presum ed, the authority of the Government of Georgia, have entered the lands of the Creek Indians, directly in vi olation of an existing Treaty, and having been warned against proceed ing, by the Agent of the United States, have nevertheless persever ed in their unjustifiable course. In formation, though unofficial, has also been received that the Indians have interposed and prev ntedthem from completing their surveys. The Chiefs and Warriors of the Creek Tribe have also appealed to the Pre sident to protect them in their rights. In this posture of affairs, it has been determined to despatch a Special Agent,for the purpose of bearing des patches to the Governor of Geor gia, and to the District Attorney and Marshal of the United States for that State, and also to the Agent of the Creek Indians, to endeavor, if pos sible, to prevent a resort to violent measures, either by the authorities of Georgia or the Indians. Confiding alike in your zeal, ca pacity, and discretion, I have deter mined to select you for this service. On the receipt of your instructions you will proceed, with the least pos sible delay, to Milledgeville, and de liver the letter addressed to Gover nor Troup, with your own hands, as also to the Attorney and Marshall. Should Governor Troup give you an answer, either verbal or written, you will communicate it by mail; as also t he receipt from the District Attorney and Marshal, of the instructions with which you will be charged for them. Having acccomplished this part of the duly assigned you. you will pro ceed to the Creek Agency, and de liver th-- letter addressed to Colonel Crowell. Any information which you obtain in reference to the object of your mission, you will promptly communicate by mail: particularly any acts of violence which may have occurred, or which may be threaten ed. Carefully abstain from any re marks which may disclose your ob ject, and be still more careful not to indulge in any commentary on the affair, which may subject you to per sonal difficulty.

C. WOODBRIDCE, LATE INSTRUCTOR IN THE j AMERICAN ASYLUM FOR THE DEAF AND DUMB." The experience of intelligent teachers has conclusively proved, that the important science ot Geography is permanently acquired from the system here presented in far less time than has been usually occupied— -1 hat the memory is greatly assisted in the recollection of facts— That the student becomes involuntarily interested, and by tbe peculiar mode adopted is necessarily led to a thorough comprehension of every subject treated. Ihe superior excellence of tho system may also be inferred trom the very rapid sale it has obtained; five large editions (consisting ot upwards ol (50,000 copies) of tbe School Geography have already been disposed 01, and a sixth edition published. The following opinions oi the work are iro in the most respectable sources and fully substantiate tue above remarks. From the American Journal of Science an Arts, conducted by Benjamin Suliman, Professor of Chemistry, Jlineraliogy, Etc. in Yale College. The principle object of the authors, w as to give Geography that scientific arrangeme u( wtiich has been so suceessluliy applied t'- other branches of study. Most works u>‘ tins subject have presented little more tnan a collection of facts, grouped by an impel led method, and so littie connected by any associating principle, us to overload tni me mory and fatigue toe mind. Little or no use lias hitherto been made, by the great.r number of writers, of he important principles of classification, in reducing geography to the form of a science, and thus increasing the facility of acquiring and retaining its de tails. Tbe work is accompanied by an Atlas on anew plan, exhibiting, in connection wilii the outlines of countries, their climate and productions, their prevailing religion, lorms of Government, and degree* of Civilization, with the comparitivc size of Tow ns, Hivers, and Mountains. The plan is ingenous—and the information thus communicated through the medium of the eye, will make a much stronger and more durable impression on the mind than that received by mere descrip tion, while it is also acquired with moie interest and pleasure. We think Air. Wooa bridge has succcecded well in Ins design, and deserves the thanks and the patronage of tbe community. From the Christian Spectator, of September, cch ducted by an Association of Gentle nun, published at sYeto-flaveu, Conn. Let real improvements be made, especially in elementary treatises for the instruction of the young, and they have ouwordi.il appro bation. Os this character weconsider Mr. Woodbridge’s publications most undoubtedly to be. The praise of originality in the plan, and of a novel method of exhibiting and tc,aching the science, must be awarded to him. The principle of comparison and classi fication which he has adopted, strikes us as being peculiarly favorable, in general, both to a comprehension of the subject treated of, and to their retention in tiie memory. It affords, as we think, as to mental discipline, that precise advantage, which u system of Geography should be designed to produce. Scattered and unconnected facts, however well remembered, on so many different sub jects as geography presents to us, are far less important, tiian distinct impressions correctly arranged, and happily associated in the mind.
