Lntier consideration. Are lucre any circum
stances so imperative in their chara; ter as to
justify the neglect of t!ie obligations assumed
t v the government in the Creek treaty ■■
In order, sir, that you may have a full view of
this matter, i have enclosed’ copies of various
instructions and other papers hating relation
tc it. These will place you in possession of the
principal facts 1
Since the ratification cf this treaty, repeated
representations have been made to this De
partment, by th * public Agents, by respectable
individuals, and by the Indians, that greet: an !
wanton outrages have been committed upon the
latter, by person-', who have intruded upon the
ceded lands. It has been stated that the hotts -
of the Indians have been forcibly taken poss
sion of, and sometimes burnt, and the own.;
driven into the woods; that their fields and im
provements have been wrested from them, am:
occupied bv white persons; that aggravated in
juries have been committed upon the persons of
the Indians ; and that their horses, cattie, hogs,
end other property have been forcibly taken from
them. The appeals of the Chiefs to the gov
ernment to carry the treaty into effect, and to
afford their people protection have been repented
snd forcible. They represent that their crops
have beer, taken from them, and they look for
ward to a state of starvation, unless some de
cisive step is adopted in their favor. And in
addition to all this,the Deputy Marsha! reports,
that there are four hundred persons selling
whiskey to the Indians upengthc ceded lands.
That this state of things requires a change
cannot be doubted Surely no one would ex
pect the government to sit stiil and witness
such aggressions w ithout any effort to prevent
them. You suggest, that the law of Alabama,
ptoviding for the removal of intruders by actions
of forcible entry and detainer, would be found
sufficent for the protection of the Indians, and
propose, proceedings under it should be adopt
ed with that view.—To this suggestion the
President sees two objections:
Ist. The treaty expressly provides a differ
ent mode, and therefore leaves no discretion
with the Executive: and,
2d. There is every teasonto fear, that the
remedy pointed out, would, if adopted, bo found
wholly insufficient.
Looking at the condition of the Indians; the
intrusions among them; the injuries they have
suffered and are exposed to; the difficulty of
proof, and the great delay which would attend
the prosecution of such a number of lav.- suits,
on d in a community which could not but be
excited upon the subject, it woud be vain to
expect that the protection premised could in
tijis way be insured.
You do justice to the feelings of the President,
ia statin,’ it as your belief, “that he is disposed
•‘to cause the treaty to be carried into effect by |
such means only as are clearly authorized by i
the Constitution and laws.”—There is not the j
slightest wish, unnecessarily to injure or op-1
press the settlers upon these lands. lam well
n-vare of the hardships and inconveniences to
which frontier settlers arc exposed, and every i
reasonable allowance should be made for their I
position. When their are no other obligations !
intervening, settlements have extended over the i
public lands without inconvenience to the coun
try, and without the interteience of the Gov
ernment. B.ut in this case the rights of others
ore concerned, and the executive is called upon
to fulfil the obligations of a solemn treaty. I
do not however see that the treaty, by obvious,
construction, permits settlements upon any of
the lands ceded, except reservations, &c.
The stipulation is, that intruders shall be re
moved from the ceded lands, before the country
[3 survsved and the locations made; but that
after these avis are done, this provision shah
not operate upon that pait cf the country not
included in the selections. No permission to
settle is here granted. The Government did
not indeed stipulate with the Indians that
intruders on IjVs unlocated should be re
moved, but the ordinary provisions ot the lau
still apply to nil persons living upon such
land, and the prescribed penalty attaches to
them.
Ycur excellency suggests that “encouraged
fcy the treaty, by the laws of the State, and the
express permission t the Government to set
tle upon and o • u>v them, population has
moved upon them,” &c. There is a misap
prehension on this subject, which 1 trust the
enclosed do ment will remove. No person
has moved upon this land by the permission
of the Government. Settlers without that
permission have taken possession of the
countrv, :nd the Government in this as in all
other cases, bejng desirous of fulfilling the
obligations with as little inconvenience to the
citizens as possible, on the application of the
members ofC ongress from Alabama and others,
consented in December last, that the settlers
upon the land might remain till the locations
were made. This was done,as the instructions
will show, upon the presumption that the coun
try Would he surveyed and the locations made
before it would bo time to put in another crop,
und also in the belief that no inconvenience or
injury would result to the Indians. In both
these expectations, there has been a disap
pointment. The country has indeed been
surveyed, but the locations have not been, and
cannot for some time be made, and the com •
plaints of the Indians are assuming such a shape
03 imperatively t” call upon the Government
for its interference. It becomes therefore
necessary to terminate the qualified permission
which has been granted to residents.
Your Excellency supposes that the Marsha!
with an armed force, is marking incursions
amor.” the inhabitants with a view of settling
disputes between them and the Indians,
If the Marshal, or fte military detachment
under bis orders, have assumed such an au
thority, they are acting without ti.e JUStructioas
of the Government, and contrary to its views.
They ure stationed upon the public lands for
the purpose of removing intruders. There is
not an individual settled upon the ceded lands,
who has the slightest legal claim to remain
thoie. There is not cue who has not by the
oct of settlement exposed himself not only to
t
forcible eviction, but to a specific penalty.
There are no disputes which the Marshal is
authorized to adjust. Asa matter of favor, and
to prevent injury as far as possible, that officer
was authorized to peimit such persons tem
porarily to remain as had not injured the Indians.
I'hc investigation of this fact may be necessary
to the action or the Marshal, but it is an inves
tigation, not to give the right of interference,
but to stay proceedings which otherwise under
the law and his instrur tions, mist lo had. 1
connot therefore conceive, what questions,“in
their ch ‘racier stiietlv anu properly legal,” can
come before the Marshal.
Allow n;c to repeat, that the President is
sincerely desirous of carrying the Creek treaty
!o effect, with every proper attention to the
i lies and feelings oi'thc Citizens of Alabama.
1 ut this disposition has been inlly manifested
tn all the instructions that have Ticcn issued,
and 1 cannot but hope that the piopricty of
removing them from the ceded land, will be
generally felt and acknowledged.
Very respectfully, I am, sir votir obedient
servant, ‘ LEWIS CASS.

Ala.
A PROCLAMATION BY THE GOVERNOR.
To the citizens cf the counties the Creek
Nation.
The Secretary of Mar. by direction of the
President fth United States, has instructed
the Marshal of the Southern District of Alaba
ma, to remove all white people from the ter
ritory ceded by the Creek Indians, ky tho
treaty of March 1532, which territory is com
posed of the counties of Benton, Taladcga,
Randolph. Coosa, Talapoosa, Chambers, Rus
sell- M nand’’arbour.
. hese counties have boon established and
organized by the General Assembly, in Confor
mity with the views and policy of the Federal
Government, and in pursuance of the Constitu
tion of this State.
The Order, if executed, will result in a de
struction of properly belonging to the inhab
itants of these counties, to an almost incalcula
ble amount, and inflict upon them other great
and irreparable injuries, not less calamitous
than those which would mark the invasion ofa
public enemy.
By virtue of this treaty, the government of the
United States have assumed the right of remov
ing by an armed force, not only all persons who
have settled upon the public lands, but those
also, who in the opinion of its agents, have com
mitted trespasses upon the improvements ol the
Indians, which are their private property; there
by undeitakrg, without any lawful authority,
an<i id violation of our common constitution, to
regulate matters which belong exclusively *9
the laws and tribunals of this State.
The order for the removal of the settlers,
must necessarily be attended with the expul
sion of our civil officers, the suppression of
cur courts, and, in fact, the destruction of
the State Government throughout th :se coun
ties.
The right of jurisdiction being admitted, the
ri"ht to use the means that ire indispensable
to its exercise, attaches as a necessary conse
quence; and yet a military force is displayed
upon our borders, to render inoperative ail the
measures- which have been adopted by the
state government for the extension and enfoice
ment of its laws.
The course which the General Government
has adopted) and is now pursuing, is a pal
pable and indefensible invasion of the rights of
this Stale, and its tendency, utterly subversive
of our free and happy form of government.
There are now thirty thousand of our peo
ple, alarmed at the horrors of starvation on one
side, and of military execution on the other.
In this hour of their afflictions, I recommend
and exhort them to look with abiding and un
doubting confidence to the majesty of the law.
It will cover them with a shield impenetrable
to the sword and bayonet. In order therefore,
that “the laws may be faithfully executed,”
and by virtue of the power and authority in me
vested, I hereby require all civil officers in the
counties aforesai ,to be attentive to the com
pacts of the people, upon whom any crime or
crimes may ! ie committed, or upon whom 01
whose property there may exist well founded
apprehensions, that dime-, ate intended to be
committed, by issuing all such warrants ami
other process as may be nccecssary to bring
offenders to justice, particularly such as are
guilty cf murder, false imprisonment, house
burning, robbery, forcible entries, and all such
like heinous offences.
And all good citizens are required, when
duly and legally called upon, to aid and assist
in the execution of all such process as may
be issued by the competent authorities, and
according to the laws of the land. And fur
thermore, it is enjoined upon the citizens in
the counties aloresaid, to yield a ready obe
dience to any precept or process that may
issue from the courts of the United States, or
of this State; and especially to abstain from
all acts of Unlawful violence towards the In
dians. who being ignorant of our laws, ‘and of
their should be taught to look up to tlu ir
more intelligent neighbors for information and
protection.
Given under my hand and the seal of the Stale,
at Tuscaloosa, this 7th day of October, in
the year of our Lord 1833, and the 58th
year of the Independence of the United
States of America

Old American Manufacturer 9 may rrot
be generally known how long the cultivation of
the mulberry tree, and the domestic manufac
ture of silk to some extent, has been carried on
in Massachusetts: —We find the following in
the Boston Gazette for Feb. C, 17G9:
“Last week a man from Waston brought to
own and sold 5,140 cocaoos. cr silk balls,which
the fed from only 3 mulberry trees.”
At and about the period When this was writ
ten, it will be recolleclad, there was a genera!
disposition among the “Sons of Liberty” to cn
coutage American manufactures of all sorts, to
the absolute exclusion of English especially.
Hence the following curiouailetn in the Gazette
of October 1,1794 :
“It is certain that l Yemen's shoes made of
lynn do not exceed those usually imported of
the make of 1. Dose of London, in strength and
beauty, but not in price.-—Surely then it is ex
pected the public spirited ladies of the town and
province will turn their immediate attention to
this branch of manufacture.”

1 , 2 Peep in Bridewell. —The l<>ud chirping of
a bcauti.h'! Gatiary Bird, so shrill as to be pain
fully piercing to :l v ear, compelled me to throw
down my pcn.and turn ,7?v eye to the golden
wires of the cage on the piet fable, and I in
stantly discovered in the sweet waiter tile bril
liant twinklers of my fairy Ariel “Thou little
elf—thou foolish fluttering thing,” sa id I. “thou
comest in such a questionable shape—so en
gaging and attractive, that I cannot write a j
word while thou a r t near me—where hast thou i
been—what hast thou to sav?” I opened the
door of the cage, and the bird hopped out on the
table, and shaking his plumage, stood bolbr<
me in the shape of a cherub w ith golden hair,
and eyes of azure blue.—“l’ve been to Bride
well,” said he, “do give oe a mouthful of fresh
air; such a place—so foul—so dungeon like U
tile heart of a fashionable and busy throng—by
the living Jingo (he will now and then throw
out a vulgar oath,; I wish 1 had some of the fa
thers of the city, or rather the step-fathers, as
they should bo called, cooped for a few hours
in the vaults and dungeons of that old prison,
and by my wings they would soon vote for
transforming that building into something which
will correspond w ith the beautiful Record Office
an the east wins; of the Park.” “But what in
duced you t<> vU it such a place .” “You shall
heai; —ln the shape of a humming bird, I was
fluttering through the foliage of the tall trees in
the. Park, and in winging my way near the bars
of the double casements of Grid well, I heard a
full toned and clear voice singing an Italian air
beginning thus,
“Claudio — Claudio—
Jlelorno ,” <yc.
The sounds’ were familiar to my car, and I
entered into a small square room, where set a
iood looking man, with great composure, sing
ing with much taste a varity of airs. The
mystery was explained. It was one of the old
Italian Troupe , who intending to break his en
gagement, was thrown into prison by the man
ager to keep him safe until the new opera house
was finished. An excellent device, thought I;
but he should have sung avers of the English
song beginning thus,
“The bird in yonder cage confined.
To arc sings notes of sorrow;”
“While I was in the dismal place, I thought
a little more curiosity might bo gratified, so I
remained until the keeper turned the keys of
several h’-avy portals, and opened them on n
corridor. A good looking man with mustachoes,
and on Italian face, die :sed in a white night
cap and apron, passed me with a waiter, con
taiuing JVfncaroni Perdrcaux ala Choux.—Gal
lelte dMoulon and Pom de le ire frit I knew
him at a glance; he was a professor of hmgages,
who having incurred a debt of $10;000 for mak
ing love to a confectioner’s wife, had while
in prison,boen promoted to the offic e of Artise de
Cosine, vulgarly called a cook. So, that in
stead ol living on kisses, comfilurcs, and bonbons,
at an honest man’s expense, he was manufac
turing those very articles aux desert for those
who in prison could afford to pay for such luxur
ies. In another room, a stout, good looking
man,with he avy red whiskers, lay on a cot, dic
tating sundry letters and documents to two
clerks, who were busily engaged in writing and
copying. He was rough and uttcortcous, • rude
in his manners, and abusive in his language, yet
he once held a high office in a foreign land;
•ingled with princes and nobility; had honestly
earned a iargi fortune; was hmnane and be
nevolent; but his nature had been soured by
repeated acts of treachery, by which he had lost
large sums of m<>ney; he was fleeced by friends
and boon companions—driven to madness by
treachery—mulcted in heavy damages for libels,
and ultimately confined as a lunatic, while
perfectly ‘line —a stranger in a lane Which he
•nee honored, but which from repeated sufler
.■•urc he now abhors.

In an adjoining room sat a countryman of
his,and a very different personage. He had been
banker, had his town houses and country villas
—his horses and hounds—his equipages and
footmen —his mistress, his box at the opera—
his seat at Crock ford’s—his stall at Tattersalhs
his beaf-steak club—his rubber of whist,
batch of Burgundy, and pipes of Madeira. His
eareer had terminated in bankruptcy, ruin and
elopement; and he was now in,prison, far from
his home and family, for a debt due to the very
man who was it fellow prisoner of his in an ad
joining apartment,” “This is the world, my
faithful Ariel,” said I. Vanitc.s vanilalum.
Keep out of debt—keep out of law- and
keep out of prison. Every comfort and happi
ness are sacrificed to make appearences; and as
Cosey says, “scarce has the upholsterer done
knocking up, wherr in comes the auctioneer and
knocks down.”
The little cherub, shaking the dew from his
pinions, mounted in air, and with a bewitching ;
smile, wafted an adieu and winged his way to
wards the west. We'shallsoon hear from him
again.

which occurred to one of the Judges or, the

the subject of much mirth in the Terr.ple Hall.
It appears that the Judici.il having finished his
labours, had cast off his forer.sic wig at Ins
lodgings, and relired into the next room to wait
for his brother judge* whorn he was about to
accompany to sonic of the local aristocracy to
dinner. Ihe lemale servant 01 the house had
entered the bed chamber by a side door, and,
not knowing the judge was in the next room
in a frolic arrayed herself in the Judge’s wig
Just at this moment, w hen the fair Mopsey
was Admiring herself in the looking glass, tho
Judge, unexpectedly entered the apartment,
and catching a sight of his stern
countenance, looking just over her shoulder,
in the glass, was so much alarmed that she
fainted, ami would have fallen on the ground it
the learned Judge impelled by humanity, had
not caught her in his arms. At this critical
moment, his brother Judge arrived, and op
ening his dressing room door with n view to see
ifhe was ready, discovered his learned brother
with the fainting maid in his arms. Not wish
ing to interrupt what ha thought to be an
amour, he quickly attempted to withdraw, when
his brother Judge vociferated “For God's sake
I, ,stop and hear this matter explained.”
“Never mind.” said L; “my dear brother the
matter cxplaines itself, and n iett his loured
brother to recover the fainting maid as he could.

The Recorder of the 23d ult. is, like ourselves, iri a
state of “ betweenily,” upon this point. The following
are its remarks:
“We observed in our last, that the iC would

considered the matter deterir.jnci, \y e },ad

somewhat ‘difficult to tell, at present, which

smartly be removed. - ’
j The Macon Messenger of the 24th, expresses a like
uncertainty:
j “From the best information we can obtain,

small Troup majority in the House. As we
