Jtfr. Hammond : A friend has put into my
hands the New York Courier and Enquirer, of
the 10th March, containing a lettei from “ The
Spy in Washington,” in which is this para
graph ;
“As soon as this bill of abominations had be
come a law, Mr. Chestuu, the attorney of the
Cherokees, perceived that it afforded to his
clients and friends, the means of bringing their
case before the Supreme Court. He immedi
ately, as stated in my former letter, notified the
War Minister, that the charactar of their nego
tiation must be changed. He said that the
lands which ihc Cherokees claimed, were worth
twenty millions of dollars; but that they would
transfer them for Jive millions. It is understood,
that'the government has offered them more than
half this sum,which they have refused to accept,
preferring an appeal to the supreme Court for a
decision on their case. The Cherokces have
left this city without concluding a treaty. Pre
vious to the passage of this law, a treaty might
have been formed, and the Indian title to the
contested lands extinguished, for a small a
mount.”
Although a matter of little importance to my
self personally, lain unwilling that my name
should be connected with a statement so entire
ly groundless. The only matter in the above
quotation in which the “ Spy” seems to have i
been fortunate enough to gain correct informa
tion, is the fact that the “ Cherokees had left
the city without concluding a treaty.” I am not
and have not been the Attorney of the Cherokees,
except in defending some two or three of their
citizens, who were brought to Lawrenceville,
Georgia, under arrest. I was the attorney of
the missionaries, Messrs. Worcester and Butler,
and not of the Cherokee nation—though cer
tainly the rights cf the Cherokees was involved
in the issue made up between the State of
Georgia and my clients, I did not, and cannot
now perceive that what the “ Spy” calls the “En
forcing Bill, gives to the Cherokces any new
means of bringing their case before the Supreme
Court. I gave no notice or information to “the
War Minister,” “ that the character of their ne
gotiation must be changed, “ for none was pen
ding or expected, when I was in the city.—
When the bill passed, I was on my way to my
residence in this place. Nor did I ever say or
dream, that the lands of the Cherokees were
worth twenty millions of dollars,” or half that
sum; nor do I believe, and I have abundant
means of information, on the subject, that the
Cherokees have ever offered to transfer their
lands for five millions, or any other sum, or
that the government has ever offered them any
specific price. There has been no time, at
least within many years past, “ that a treaty
might have been formed and the Indian title ex
tinguished, for a small amount.” On the con
trary, the most indefatigable exertions were
made dunT® the last summer and autumn, and
the most libera: .-unis were offered to the Cher
okoes, to induce the;.'* safer into a treaty, but
in vain*
If the predictions which the “ Spy” i t ft s made
of future events, have no better foundation
liis statements, in this instance, of past, he has
little chance of hereafter ranking among the
prophets.

ELISHA W. CHESTER.
Cincinnati, March 30, 1833.
We have been much amused at the gross ig
norance xjf the nature of our government and of
popular rights, in general, which is betrayed in
one of the arguments, against the right of seces
sion, which seems to have found the widest ac
ceptance among the proclamationists. it is this.
‘lf” (say they) l a state has the right of quitting
the confederacy, then it can make no difference
vhether she be one of the original slates, or not:
tnd thus Louisiana, for which the nation paid
15 millions of dollars, could have seceded, the
day after she became a state : so that the coun
try would have been cheated out of the whole
sum paid for that State.”
This is, to be sure, a dreadful difficulty ! If
a man chooses to pay his money for a bad title,
tis horrible, indeed, that he should lose it! If
we buy that, in which it is no in the nature of
kings that we should take a fixed property, it is
i sad cause to be dispossessed ?
Now these Doctors of Laws might have done
lot much amiss, first of all, to have considered,
whether the Government had any right to give j
iway money, for such an object'!—and, second
y, when it had so given it away, whether by any
inch bargain with an European government,we
‘ould have acquired a right, over the people of
Louisiana, to make them a part of this govern
nent, whether they would, or i: ?
After they had settled all this, as they no
ioubt would have done, in favor of their own
ilavish doctirnes, it would have been necessary
o consider whether, after the Territory had once
>een formed into an independent State, it did
lot take precisely the same lights as any other
hate t Are there States in this Confederacy,
hat have not the privileges of the rest 1
If, however, the Money is (as it seems to be)
he argument, in this profound objection, we beg
o know whether Louisiana stipulated tor its re
ayment 1 Whether it efer has been, or ever
rill be repaid 1 If uot, what becomes of the
ifliculty I — Columbia Telescope.

SEVEN DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE.
About half past 2 o’clock this morning, our
news Schooner Journal of Commerce came up
from below, with London and Liverpool pa
pers, both to March 23rd (Saturday) inclusive,
brought by the Packotship George Washington,
Capt. Iloldredge.
The accounts from Greese are favorable.
Most of the chiefs had summoned their ad
herents to take the oath of allegiance to King
Otho.
Letters from Paris state that the Duchess de
Berri, expects her confinement to take place in
about six weeks.
Naples, Feb. 22.—We learn that a commis
sion consisting of three merchants and several
members of the Consulta, tins been appointed,
which is to examine a plan proposed by the
United Slates of North America, for a treaty of
commerce between those States and the king
dom of the Two Sicilies.
Liverpool, March 23—Ministerial confidence
has received a check. In the committee on the
Irish Coercion Bill the minority has been near
ly doubled, and among the deserters are some
members whose votes must be considered a
1 pointed censure. The English petitions against
the measures arc unusually numerous, and it is
. creditable to Scotland that there was not one
petition in its favor, although the Scotch mem
bers nearly all voted for it.—The public, al
though sometimes slow ta doubt, are always
certain of being ultimately arrayed in defence of
principle; and the Cabinet miscalculated when
| they thought they could act against all their
\ former professions with impunity.
London, March 21 • —To the iufinite amuse
ment of all who heard the proceedings in the
House of Commons on Tuesday last, and not
much to the surprise of any who have read the
reports in the news papers, Mr. O’Connel—
Mr. 0 Connell! of all men on earth—has given
notice ofa motion for a committee to inquire
into the expediency of adapting poor laws to
Ireland. Every one recollects that this learn

determined enemy to the introduction of pour
laws into that country.
FRANC TANARUS:.
London, March 23, 1833. —The liberal Par
is Papers of Wednesday (20th) contain articles
recommending a national subscription for Mr.
Lafitte, whose hotel is advertised for sale. The
subscription is likely to be liberal, though pro- !
bably not so magnificient as that for the family j
of General Foy, which amounted to upwards ofj
,£40,000 sterling. Dislike of tho Bourbon Gov- j
ernment produced the former, as much as the •
great qualities of the General, and the present!
unpopularity of Louis Philippe with tho revo- i
lutionary party, may increase the latter. M.
Aguado, the Spanish loan contiactor, has given
£I,OOO.
PORTUGAL.
London, March 22.—We rejoice to be able
to state that the news from Portugal to the 2d
inst. inclusive, which came to hand yesterday,
is such as to remove fur the present at least,
some of the gloomy apprehensions created by
the former direct, though vague, intelligence
from that quarter.
The Lisbon packet pased Oporto on the 4th
| instant, but was not able to enter, and did not
1 r emain off more than two hours, consequently
j ‘ no information from thence; but we find
from Captain Glasscock, of the
teif? to *.•. or o,c
bombarding the town through the & -,j on 0 f
Miguel made a grand attack in the ek re — •
Cordello and St. John da Foz. A diversion ha.
been made in the vicinity of Agoa Ardenied but
it soon became perceptible that the main object
of attack was towards the Cordello line.
The Troops of Don Miguel were completely
repulsed, and it is supposed that they have sus
tained a considerable loss; upwards of 600 are
said to have been killed, but credence can
not be given to all the reports current in the
town.
Don Pedro’s troops have comparatively sus
tained little loss; but the Scottish corps, under
Major Shaw, have suffered most; one officer in
that corps has been killed, and almost every of
ficer, with the exception of its commander,
Shaw, has been wounded. A hundred it is said,
is the amount of killed and wounded on the con
stitutional side. Supplies of provisions, am
munition, and troops, are daily expected.”
SPAIN.
Paris, March 29—We learn from good au
ority, that the convocation of the cortes of
Spain is to take place in the fast forthuight ofthe
month of April *. but it appears that the two sub
jects which are to be first discussed viz; the
acknowledgement of the right of the King’s
daughter to the throne and the recognition of
the American Republics, will be discussed with
closed doors.
London, March 22. A Paris letter states
that an express had arrived there from Mandrid
with intelligence of the promulgation of a decree
by which Don Carlos with his family are to quit
Spain within three days. The influence of the
Minister, M. Zea Bcrmudex, is stated to be ou
the decline, and it was expected that he would
shortly be compelled to retire from office. Eve
ry thing at Madrid announced the ascendency
of liberal principles.
TURKEY AND EGYPT.
London, March 22—In Gallignani’s Mes

Sultan and the Pacha of Egypt had been signed.
It is admitted, however, that the basis were
