“I likowiaw Isy bcloro you the copy ofalctlcrfooelvcd
from Gca. John Coffee, the agentappointed by the U.
States government, to investigate tho satno subject, to
gether with tho answer addressed to hint ftom the • Exe
cutive Department—Perndt mo to recommend to the
Legislature the most liberal and forbearing course in
tolstion to. cxir right to the territory in dispute. Delay
and thorough investigation will not weaken our title, if
valid. Representing a* we do a great community and
having f w defendants against us a weak tribe oflndians,
subject really to our legislation, it becomes us not only
to net justly, hut to avoid tho very appearance of viola
ting right. The immediatqpossession of tho disputed
twtiory is comparatively nfsmall importance; «ur people
are in no want of lands. The removaluf the Chcrokees
entirely from within our limits, is however an object of
the greatest interest to tho State. Until It is effected
our population must remain unsettled, our policy waver
ing and improvements of nil kinds, whipher they contri
bute to enjoyments of society or (ho advancement of tlio
wealth of the State, unexecuted. Wo aro assured that
the exertions of the present administration of tho general
government will be used to promote this end, so desira
ble to us. Tho obligations of that government’* con
tract with us to extinguish the Indian tide to all the lands
wi'hin our limits, wo may now hope will bo complied
with in good failli. No one better understands the In
dian character, tho nature of tho peculiar relations
which exist between them and our government,than the
President ofthc United Stales. It is believed that the
efforts of the government to remove the Cherokces will
be strengthened by tho conviction on tho public mind
that the cause oThumanity requires it. Long experience
has satisliod all except scctiuual an l party zealots, that
the Indian tribes whim surrounded by tho while man,
continue to disappear until shut out Grom existence.—
Tbo Government proposes to romovc nil tho Indians
within the limits «f tho State to an OX ton the territory
which belongs to it beyond tho Mississippi, where they
r,ui be protected and aided in their advancement in ci-
vUiantioii. The humane and intelligent arc every where
concurring with the views of the Government. The op
pressive system of government which the Cherokee
Chiefs (principally the mili tated sons of while men,)
arc now enforcing upon the body of tho Iudinns, must
soon satisfy every one ofth.’ necessity w hich will compel
the State to put an mid to such an assumption of authori
ty within Us territory. So long as tin Indians retained
their original simple habits, peculiar and strong preju
dices, and wero without wealth, they were imnpablo of
discltnrging tho d ities ofoiti'VVJ or Inuring the burdens
of government. Tbo State has t!n';o r or« permitted
those within its jurisdiction to govorn themselves.accord
ing to the customs of their tribes. Tills state of things
however, mustceaso to exist, and unless they shall be
shortly removed, the State will owe it to itself tn govern
them, as it does n'l others residing within Its limits.—
We look forward with confidence to the policy which
the Congress of the United States will adopt, at its next
session, ns the means that will relievo us from the ne
cessity ofui-ting atullnpou titi-tinost delicate and diffi
cult subject, f»r however valid may ho our power, and
just our \laiui, it*we act efficiently upon this subject (and
we ought not to net at all, miles* wo d»,) wc shall offend
the prejudices of a considerable portion of our country.
Permit me for these, and a variety of other reasons,
which will readily suggost themselves to thoso who have
investigated this subject, to recommend to tho Legisla
ture the continuance of its forhcnrunca a little Ion-
requesting an examination Into Ids administration as
such, and the return of his bond. This, In Saturday’s
discussion, was cited as .a “sign” that all was not
straight, and the necessity or such an txpott before it
was relinquished. It was stated, however, by a mem

to our people. It w ill become our duty to exercise (he

“Permit me to suggest the propriety of proven* iug tho
immediate publication of the testimony. Colonel Wales
informs mo that the witnesses wero in groat danger from
deposing at all upon the subject of the disputed line,
anil would most prolmtdy hnvo lost their lives if their
testimony had boon made pttblio—that ho promised thnt
it should not bn published until they left their country-
all of ilicm being of the emigrating party. He states,
hnwevor, that they were to have left the ngeucy-Tinfora
this time, and will most probably be removed from dan

ofthc Legislature, ami ilic commission ni an cud, I did
not feel my self at liberty In withhold it.”

in pursuance of the Resolution of November 21st, rela

Secretary of Whr states, thnt no plantations have been
purchased hut improvements only, not affecting rights
to tho soil.

against ” thnt part of tin law which allows Indians to
give testimony in this State.” It wns offered to receive
it if tho would quote the whole section, or even if they
would add, “Jundcr certain rcitrictioui.”—hut the
most singular obstinacy was exhibited, nnd a long de

decided that tho protest wns formal, and an appeal wns
