MILL EDO E I'lLl. E, Saturday Errnlng, ?
November 27, 1830. \
I avail myself of a few leisure moments, lo
give you a sketch of the business prevailing hero.
The Indian question is the all-absorbing subject
of the time ; and since it was taken up, scarcely
anythin" else has been talked of or thought of,
j in the Homo or out of it. It bus been discussed
I jn the House, almost without interruption, for
■ eevorul days past, and tljc consideration ji jo
B was postponed there, this afternoon, a short
j time before adjournment, till Monday next,
I when it will again be taken up, and will no doubt
>t V bo under debate, in some shape or other, fur the
It |P whole of the week. The particular question
now, and for several days past, before the House,
m is the uclop:ion of Mr. Havre’s substitute to the
- bill reported by Judge Schley, from the com
fej tnittee on the state of the Republic. This con
-11 templates, as you arc aware, the taking immedi
nto possession ofthe Indian lands, and forcibly
K. driving the Indians therefrom. How such a bill
[ can lie the subject of a moments consideration
I in a Christian land, isto me a subject ofthe deep-
H csl astonishment—and yet many intelligent
ip men believe and fear that it may bo successful 1
E For niv own part, I will noi believe it possible—
■ and, indeed, should scarcely credit the cvidcnco
■of my own senses if such were the fact. God
fi; forbid such a fatal consequence, und I will con
■B| fijc-nlly rely on his over ruling goodness and
protection, to avert it—to save the Indians—nay,
is tenfold more, to save our oirn State from the
■M serious evils which must inevitably follow it.
I H I must not trust my feelings further on this point
they aro perhaps too deeply and unneccssati
i{B ly wounded. We will at least hope so. One
tithing is certain, that no effort is or will be spared
l -SI lo prevent the adoption of Utc measure; and I
*jjftim proud to sec among its opponents many,
savery many, of ibe first and ablest men o( the
ij-KAssombly, of both parties. Indeed, it is by no
iancans a party matter; none of the old land marks
party arc to be discovered in any of its consi
..ok ratiorei; and one would almost suppose, from
Bhe pertinacity with which members of each
indiscriminately oppose one another, that
■hrown away.
Numerous as are the advocates of this mca
ftpuro, the array o' talent against it is very power*

O'
the measure, when it conn*s to its last test;
irely few, 1 would fain say none will vio
this sacred pledge of the Slate. However,
übject is a serious one, and demands the
sing efforts of every citizen of the State,
is sensible of the dung- . us consequencen
e success of this me ■. uie. As I have al
y obiorvod, many intelligent jean, who
look upon it as one of tho most important and
dangerous questions that has ever agitated the
■State, arc deeply fearful of the result; and there
fore, every citizen, however small his influence,
should instantly exert that influence, by writing
to the Representatives of his county and urging
them to forbear. There is certainly no danger
in forbearance—no possible injury, but infinite
good, may very shortly result from it.
I think the groat danger lies in this—that a
largo portion of the people, not fully aware of
the exact nature of the Indian question in all its
various important and intricate considerations,
have decisively instructed their representatives
to make every possible effort to efto t the sur
vey and occupancy ofthe land, and ultimate set
tlement of this long troublesome and purplexing
question, as speedily as possible; and that the
Representatives so instructed, who might other
wise, possibly have pursued a different course,
do not feel themselves at liberty to vote against
a measure which they consider in accordance
with the expressed will of their constituents.
The people, then, should arouse themselves,
and examine the subject carefully, and if any of
them find that they have given such instructions
on too hasty and erroneous opinions, they should
instantly hasten to correct the error before it be
too late.
The members of the House, from Richmond,
Judge Schley and Mr Jk Mi.vs, have acquitted
themselves on this subject most ablv, and lo the
highest admiration of their friends and coadju
tors. Ofthe former it is almost supererogatory
to speak. His ability, prudence, moderation
and excellent judgment, have long been well
known to his constituents and to the State ; and
it is therefore needless lo say, that they have
acquired for him, in the Legislature, the utmost
respect and confidence, and given far more than
ordinary weight to his opinions and arguments.
And of the latter, I can say with pleasure—and,
perhaps, as one of his constituents, not tho less
pleasure, impartiality, and justice, because I did
not vote for liim—that he has more I lent realized
tho high anticipations of those who did. Ho hue
supported tho inlerestsof his county, in tillqijts
lions of a genera! or local nature in which they
are involved, with an ability, faithfulness, discre
tion, industry and unassuming modesty, which
have gained him many admirers and warm
, Iricnds, oven among those who differ from him
in state polities—and tho’ I 100 differ from him
in that respect, as a citizen of his county, I
could not but he proud to hear its representative
so often and so highly spoken of. Ilia speech
on the Indian question, and against the tight o'
Georgia to lake possession of the laud, and the
expediency of doing so now, even if she had
such right, has often been mentioned to mo,
since my arrival here, which was since its dc-
I livery, and uniformly as one of the host, if not
the (rest, that has yet been delivered on the sub
ject.
O.i Thursday, the 2T.11,, , T . Igc McDonald of
fered, as a substitute for Mr. Haynes’ b'll, a
memorial lo the Piesidcnt, and a bill founded
on the memorial,—suggested, it is said, by in
formation received from Washington City, that
the Indians will probably remove on condi
tion that they shall he permitted to retain some
extensive reserves—but be withdrew them to.
day, reserving to himself the privilege of bring
ing them forward at a future time, should lie
desire to do so. The following is the memorial:
To hit Ercilirncy the President of the I /. • ->.
The Memorial of the Senate and House of
Representatives of the State of Georgia in Gen
eral Assembly met.
Your memorialists deem it their indispcnsiblc
i duly, as the representatives of the people of
Georgia, to call the attention of the chief rnugis
-1 Irate of the United Stales, lo a subject Ultimate
! ly connected with tier interests. At the time of
the recognition of tlie independence of the lliir
[ , teen United States, the territory of Georgia ex
tended from the Savannah to the Mississippi riv
er, embracing almost the whole of the fertile
! lands now making the States of Alabama and
1 Mississippi. She ceded to the United States, all
[ the right, tide an I claim which she bad to the
-1 jurisdiction and soil in these lands upon the terms
’ specified in the articles of agreement and ces
sion, entered into between this .State and the
J general government, in the year 1802. One of
3 the principal inducements which led Georgia to
lire cession of so line and extensive a country
, was, i tint the government should extinguish the
’ Indian title of occupancy to the lands lying with
i ! in her diminished boundary us soon as it could bo
t peaceably done on reasonable terms. This tlie
. government ofthe United Stales engaged to do,
1 and lias long since been paid the consideration
by Georgia. Georgia has performed her part of
. tho contract, and she has long looked lo the
plighted foil) of die people ofthe United States,
for the discht rge of the obligation which it im
s posed on them, liui your memorialists contour-
J plate with feelings of deep regret the efforts
winch are making to excite the passions and the
j prejudices of die Cherokee Indians against the
citizens of Ge rgia; and those feelings are
■ heightened by tlie consideration, that those ef
forts an; oi..king by a portion ofthe very people
who are bound by alt tlie obligations of honor
rani bones.y lo fulfil ibis contract. The obvious
tendency of this course is to fix tlie Indians for-,
over on ..ur soil, and dins lo place it out of the
I powei of the government to perform its engage
t rnent. It is upon the honor of the nation that
Georgia depends for the execution of the com
pact, and to tins she rnusi now appeal. Thu
- Clierokees have been driven back upon the ter
ritory of Georgia by tlie extinguishment of their
title to lands in oilier States. The Government
r lias made treaties with them subsequently to the
• articles of cession and agreement before referred
t I 10, and which arc Inconsistent with those tirli
lt j cles, insomuch as they provide for tire perma
nent settlement ofthe Indians within the heun
■ | dary of this Slate. Your memorialists rcspect
r fully contend, that because of its anterior date,
J the compact with Georgia is of paramount obli
gation to any opposing Indian treaty; therefore,
’ when they come In cuntlicl, the weaker must
‘ yield to the stronger. But it is believed that the
s time has arrived when lire Government can com
t; ply with its compact with Georgia, without a
violation of its faith with tlie Clrerokoes. The
’’ common Indian who is still disposed to pursue
r . the draco, will find in tlie wilds beyond the Mis
e sissippi, an entertainment more congenial with
> his inclinations, than can be afforded on bis na
t live lands, while be who is desirous lo lay aside
1 (he garb of the huntsman f6r the implements o(
•• ’ lire agriculturist, will find in the salutary regie
io latiousof a civlizcd people, laws for his govern-
ment and protection, better suited la his impro
ved condition, than can he provided by the rude
code of a barbarous people. The Cherokee oc
cupants of the territory of Georgia are now pre
pared, as your memorialists believe, to make
their election, whet her they will emigrate to tho
West, or whether they will remain upon the soil 1
as citizens of Georgia. If an opportunity were
now offered them, the decision ofthe tribe would
soon be made, and the question of our terri
torial rights, which has been so long a sub
ject of embarrassing controversy, would be
, peaceably, and permanently settled. The In
dian can find a home in tho bosom of our West
ern forests, out of the roach of any State regula
tion, where lie may roam without restraint, and
yield to no laws but those of his own rude en
actment.
Be it therefore Rrrnlrcd, That his Excellency
tho President of the U. Stales, he rcspecfnlly re
quested to open a office on the territory of Geor
gia, in the occupancy of the Cherokee Indians,
for the registry ofthe names of such Indiana A
Cherokee residents, as are disposed lo make re
serves in fee simple under the authority of Geor
gia, and also, the names of such as ate desirous
to sell their improvements and emigrate.
Be it further resolved, That his Excellency the
President he requested lo appoint suitable n
gents, and that one may boa citizen of this State,
■ to make in conjunction an assessment of the
value of each lot of land reserved under the au
thority aforesaid, and the improvements of such
Indians and residents, of tiro Cherokee people
as arc desirous to emigrate.
Be it further resolved. That bis Excellency the
President be further requested to pay over to the
Governor of Georgia, for the use of the Citizens
thereof, the assessed value of all reserves made
as aforesaid.
And that the people of this State may not be
embarrassed by ditfieultics growing out of differ
ent surveys and conflicting land marks, ba it
further resulted, that bis Excellency tlie Presi
dent bo also requested to notify to tho Govern
ment of tins State, when lie shall have made
preparatory arrangements for tho location of
reserves by tho Indians, and Indian residents,
that a survey may bo made, for the purpoos
aforesaid, under the authority of Georgia.
I have not seen the bill, but understand that it
provides for tlie survey of the laud, immediately
after notice from the President, of the loca
tion ofthe reserves, «nd the consent of those In
dians who will not occupy them, lo fcmovc —
, that the reserves, in common with the other part
of the territory, shall be laid off into lots and
drawn for by lottery, in like manner; but that
each lot in tho reserves shall bo marked R. and
the value of it, when drawn, shall be paid to the
drawer in money, instead of tho lot—the, whole
amount of such payments to be paid hy the Gen
eral Government to Georgia, and by Georgia to
the drawers of such lots, individually—the Irt
, dians lo hold the reserves as long as they or their
, children may choose, but restricted from selling
i them to any one but the State of Georgia, or to
, (be General Government for its use. I do not
I know whether or not it provides what rights
shall be given to those Indiana 'tho remain on
the Reserves.
In tho Penato, on Thursday, Gen. Anderson,
of Franklin, introduced into that body, a bill on
the Indian question, exactly similar to that of Mr.
Haynes in the House, and it has since been read
, twice and committed. I am gratified to find,
that many think it certain, if this moaaorc should
. succeed in the House, that it will bo defeated
in tho Senate. Our Senator, Mr. Rhodes, with
, his well known excellence of judgment and dis
i crction, and much past experience in legisla
tion, holds a high rank among the members of
ibis body, for bis zeal and ‘■industry in behalf of
the interests of Ins county and the State. I hope
much from his influence, moderation, and fore
sight, on the subjcol ofthe Indian question, lie
feels as a true Georgian, deeply interested iu
the future honor and welfare of the State.
