INDIAN” AFFAIRS. J
Mi-; lien, hoin the Committee on Indi- -
an Affairs, u. c. ... r --- j
of the President 1 * Message, which relates t
to the Indian Affairs,and sundry resold- ,
tions and memorials u pun the same sub- ,
ject, made a report thereon, accompanied j
by a bill, to provide for the removal of the ,
Indian Tribes within any of the States and (
Territories, and for their permanent set- ,
tlement West of the Mississippi/ which ■
was read and committed to the Union, (
with the Report and Documents ordered ,
to be printed.
Mr. Buchannan said this was a subject ,
of great importance-—the more, as he had
no doubt, from the nature of the numerous
memorials presented to the House, that
great misapprehension prevailed in the
countiy on the subject. It was common
>y believed that the Indians were to be
Removed from the Southern States by
force,* and nothing was further from the
inientiun of Congress or of the Slate of
Georgia either, than this. It was right to
correct the erroneous impression of the
public on this subject, and he therefore
moved that 10,000 additional copies of
the report be printed for the use of the
House.
Mr. Burges did not rise to controvert
the printing of any number of copies of
the report, but in some sort to controvert
the idea suggested, namely, that misap*
prehension and error had gone abroad on
the subject. The gentleman said nothing
was further from the intention of this
Government and of Georgia, than to re-;
move the Indians by force. Mr. B. pre
sumed, that nothing of the sort was inten
ded bv the Goverment of the U. States, 1
but when he saw Georgia making laws to
extend over the Indian* her juii.-diction,
aud excluding them from the exercise of
iheiV own lights, and calculated to drive
them off, he could not agree to the remark
of the gentleman. He hoped the motion
would be postponed for a week, by which
time the report would he priut* and, and the
House could see what it was, and whether
,i was such as deserves this great circula
tion among the people.
Mr Wii.dk said he did not intend to
be drawn mto a premature discussion—j
premature, at least, in his judgement—of !
the highly important questions involved
in the bill and report of the Committee
on Indian Affairs, which had not yet
been read.—He agreed with the gen
tleman from Buc- ;
hannan,] that great misapprehension 1
had existed on this subject, and disagreed I
with the gentleman from Rhode Island,:
who insisted that there was no misappre j
hension in relation to the policy and con- !
duct ol the State of Georgia. That State j
! ad indeed made provision prospectively i
lor extending her laws over every person j
within her limits. In doing so she had
done no more than had recently been
done by some of the new States—nothing
more than h id been done by several ofthe
old ones. He denied that the State of
Georgia entertained the project of driving
the Indiauslfiom her soil by force/ and he !
believed he had at least as good an oppor-■
tuuitv ol being informed as to the views
and policy of that State, as the honorable
gentleman from R. Island.
On a proper occasion he would enter
into au examination of that policy. And
he imagined it would not be difficult to
piove that she had treated the Indians
j within Let limits, with as much forbear-;
! ance, humanity, and good faith, as any of
| the fetates in which she has found
sere. He would not institute, yet he
should not shun, a comparison between
her conduct in this respect, and that of
the old States, and he promised, gentle- J
men, if they did think proper to institute!
it he would follow it out as far a3 his i
knowledge ot their history extended, and
die patience ol the House would allow
him.
At present, fie was desirous merely of
ci netting another misapprehension, in
• gard to (he great excitement and deep
inlet ett which it was supposed the State
of Georgia felt in the pro* ceding* i „n
----gress on this subject He believed there
was no such excitement as had been im
agined. That State knew her rights, and
was always eady and able to maintain
them. She knew her duties, too and
had never yet faded to p.-rform then,—
A/iUVr ,' she iour
ed without apprehension certain t at it
would be limited to its only constitutional
objects, and without solicitude, except
that which she felt in ‘'ommon with every
other state, in the condition of these chil
dren of the forest. Her interest in the
question had been vastly exaggerated.
The number of Indians within the Terri
tory of N York, and their hunting ground*
comprised about five million* of acres.
Her relations w ith the United States on
the subject of these lauds were indeed
peculiar; and, when it became the subject
of discussion, it would be seen whether
blame rested any where, and with whom.
It was enough now to avoid lending sanc
tion. by his silence, to errors of dangeio'**?
tendency. He trusted that the largest
number of the report proposed would be
printed. All who had taken so active and
ardent an interest in the affairs of the
Indians and Georgia would naturally be
desirous of seeing the facts and aigu
: ments of the Committee. It was to be
hoped many of those pprsotis were *<n
cere inquirers alter truth. —Let u*. then,
; afford them whatever light we have, to
guide them in search.
I Mr. Bates could not, until he knew
what the report was. consent to order this
great extra number to be printed. Ht h,d
great confidence in the Committee whi< h
made the report and especially for ih
honorable Chairman; but he wished the
! report to lie on the tabfo until to morrow
or next day, to afford an oppoitunity for
examining ,t, and he moved to pxvtpoue
the motiou for the extra printing until to*
morrow
Mr. Thompson, of Georgia, called for’
the reading of the report. This was <>p.
posed by Mr. Sutherland, as an useless
waste of time; and was insisted on by Mr.
Thompson, who said it was necessary, in
asmuch as the not knowing what it con
tained, was made a plea for objection to
the printing.
Mr. Keed, deprecated this departure
from the old usages of the House, which
i was growing up.— It had been the prac
! tice to print the usual numbers of a doc
ument, and when read and understood, iV
found of great interest, to print an utra
number. Now, it was becomfi g customa
ry, when a report was made, so -cme
gentleman, not a member of the (Oi .mit-
I tee, but knowing something of it lx sup
posed, to get up and move an extraordin
ary number of copies. He hoped before
[this was agreed to in the present case, the
| House would be enabled to know the
‘contents of the report.
J Mr. Thompson said* in deference to the
opinions f friends near him, lie wi-u’d
‘withdraw the’callfor the readii.jr.
Mr. Taylor said in a few wotn-1. i.tv..#
l>f itlG |(w-t jionctn- nt, il'ilmt •■. rui|
carried, he should call for the reading
himself, as he could uot have this extra
! number without knowing something of the
report.
Mr Buchannan rose to insist on the
opinion he had expressed, that great mis
apprehension existed in the country res
pecting this Indian question. J lie me
! morials which loaded the tables of tins
House proved this lact* He was satisfied
that the fears of the memorialists respect
ing the intentions of the Goverment, and
the state of Georgia, were totally giound
less. The forcible removal ot the Indians
was thought in many parts of the country,
to be resolved on—a great excitement
prevailed ou the subject—enthusiasts have
been busy in scattering fire brands *>nd
arrows throughout the country relative to
j this subject, calculated to create discord*
;to sow the seeds <>f disunion, aud to sever
brethern who ought ever to be united. If’
was proper the People should have infor
mation to remove the error prevalent on
this subject, and who, he asked, would
desire to keep such information from the
People.
Mr. Wicklifte would be willing to print
th& same number of thi* report aa hfti
No. 39.
