William son ever offered to Hainbly the United States interpreter, a bribe of $8,000, we do not be- licre—that ho was not authorised by us to make suoh offer, we know. But that the Maj. baa proven both, we think probable, for upon Hamhlr and various inhere ivilh whom be had to deal, an-oath imposed uu obliga tions, (9.) We beg leave to repeat, (hatiwe had done n,.thing to prtivoke Maj. Andrews to make the chargea a*am*t us. We had preferred no accusation against him, and wlia't inay. have been our opinions of the manner io which he had discharged Ids duties, and of its tendency Iu illegitimate results, we had fureborn, either dirociiy or indirectly, to interfere. Let the public decide upon a full view of lira course pursued by this agent, whether lie was not to tally incapacitated fur the duties assigned him, either, by the force of his partialities, ur the weakness of his un lorstauding. Let thorn dotormine on Cither suppusitinn, how mnoh reliance is to be placed in the result, of hi.- enquiries; The proceedings of General Guinea are. of a character lint less to he reprehended. An attentive observer of the course of these two special agents of the Uuited States, cannot have failed to remark the impassioned and un becoming manner in which it was pursued, and the singular analogy of the conclusions arrived at. This analogy is the more strik ing, when it is discovered to lie beyond the re gular scope of their respective commissioos We have already exposed tbf inconsisten cies ef Maj. Andrews, and sh II next look to (T»6' H4Riini fated inutratMnU of G*u. €>»#*»—■ The Creek nation had become tlie seat of disorder in consequence of the murder at' three of its chiefs, who had favored Ibe trea ty lately concluded. To suppress these dis order*, to restrain, or protect, at occasion might require, and to restore tranquility to the nation, were, as we conceive, th* only dp ties assigned for bis performance. That he should have assembled the two parties iu the nation and received their respective state ments relating to the rupture, wae reasona ble. That these statements, whatever they were, and no matter how influenced, should have been communicated to the Government and taken for what they were Worth, ofay al so he grantedr But wlienever he resolved himself into a tribunal and sat in judgement upon the validity uf the treaty, or the conduct of tlie commissioners in obtaining it, inlerests were involved, important and delicate, which ought to have been represented. That he has impeached the treaty and assailed the commissioners a|so, will bo seen injiis sever al cominunicationa, upon tlie sutyjecl.(IO)-- We have no apprehension that he was instruc ted to do so, at least by his government, lie .has therefore under nsnrped authority, pra6 tised an indecorum from which his'own sense of justice ought to have deterred him. Juttificatim for such a course may be searched for in vain; aud even his apologies, are greatly weakened, when we look to the place and circumstances. When be arrived at Broken Arrow, we can assure him that be was in 1 soil and climate extremely unfavora ble to the prokuctioo of truth. His dealings were with those who stood charged them selves. It was for the council there conrcu ed to account for the outrage which occasion ed the commutioo, aod the members of such council had loDg been under the tutelage of others who were not free from implication. They were, laterally, criminate tettifying their own defence. They had murdered Mc Intosh, and were-oow to answer for it. The ground taken by them on thjs occasion was, that he bad been eaeouted to a violation of law—tho ground taken for them shortly pre vious, way, Ibi-t the prospect of a surrey of the ceded lauds, before .the time limited in the treaty, had “produced iu-' themsfeelinge of melancholy and great, distress." (II) Both these groUods, although they are con: tradictory, pro#qjiposed the treaty ralid. Ita solemn ratification was further, and to a government agent, should base been conclu- live evidence of it* Validity. That in an ex parte procedure then, - its force should have been considered questioned, and itapegocia- ton ia impugned, display* at least, an easy credulity, leadiw to conclusions, obviously unjust.. - The rurlhir proceedings" of that council, evince still more plainly the impro priety and daoger of the- course pursued. A chief, that is to say; an Indian prepared for tha purpose and dacorared, perhaps, with the spoils ofthe lata aggression; mskesa state ment, which a state commissioner present of fere to expose es falee. The offer is rejected, and credence is given in tha statement “a-, gainst tlie congregated world." (12) The subtle-Witted chief, seeing that his declara tions find such ready aeeess toi the feelings and eonfidenon of hi* ooly acknowledged hearer, resolves to push hi* success ootil he should again become a kndliog 6f the soil, of •hiek be never dreinved tiU than, he bed basil unlawfully deprived, given utterance to “ sentimental trash which bad-been manufac tured for him"—w now ao humiliated that be would not lift a bend igaiart tbewhiMa— That bo would die ameqg tho tomb* of hit With all Gan.
