At 12 o’clock to-day. liis Excellency, Governor Lumpkin, transmitted to both branches of the General Assembly, the following MESSAGE. Executive Department, Gcorgia, ) J\lilledf>eville , November 5, 1833. ] Fellow-Citizens of Ihe Senate, and House of Representatives — At no period of our political existence, have the Representatives of the people of Georgia assembled under circumstances more signally calculated to impress the mind with a deep sense of gratitude to Almighty God. It would, indeed, savour of infidelity not to feel duly im pressed with a sense of our renewed obligations to the great Author and Disposer of the desti nies of men and of nations, for the many ines timable blessings vouchsafed to us, his offend ing creatures. While the chastening scourge of Heaven has been visited upon the people of both hemispheres, ! carrying in the train of pestilence, horror, des pair and death, the people of our State have not only been shielded from the wide-spreading de solation, but have en joyed an unusual degree of health and prosperity. Propitious seasons, a productive soil, and genial climate, have crown ed the labours of our industrious agricultural population with a bountiful reward lor all their toils. Our barns and store-houses arc filled u ith plenty, and the surplus products of our la bor command a price which amply remunerates the laborer for ail his care and industry. In deed, the various avocations, which diversify the labour of our citizens, find an ample and speedy reward, proportioned to the skill and in dustry employed. Most of our people cultivate their own tree-hold estates, and arc liteialh sit ting undei their own vines and trees, and none to make them afraid. Our prisons have no insolvent debtors—we have scarcely pauper in the land, except the few who have become such from habits of intemperance. Asa Stat. , we enjoy the overflowing bounties ofaheniti cent Providence. On terms of amity w ith all Governments, we arebl. ssed with the quiet und peaceable possession of our long contested ter ritorial rights—rapidly increasing in population and wealth, accumulating irorn the continual developement ol the natural resources of our State. Our inexhaustible mines and minerals have opened a wide field for the employment ot the most extensive science, skill und industry, which is drawing to our State wilh irresistible impulse, capital, skill, and enterprise from vari ous parts of the world. Comparatively free from individual distress, as well as exempt from public debt, our people are possessed of abun dant means es promoting their individual hap piness, as well as their political piosperify til the midst ot all these multiplied fir sings, it is truly mortifying to witness the restless spirit of agitation and political excitement, which has been engendered and vigorously kept up amongst the people, calculated, if not intended, to alienate their affections from their own be loved political institutions. That the value of our Federal Union should have become a fa miliar subject of calculation, is truly alarming, and argues little for the patriotism of those, who encouiage discussion upon such a subject. Who could have believed, teri years ago, that at this early day, we should have witnessed specula tive discussion upon such a theme—or that it 1 could have become the leading topic of a cer tain class cf politicians? The Union of the States, one and indivisible, is now no longer the motto of every American citizen ! These “signs of the times,” speak vol irons of admonition, to j every lover of constitutional liberty, and should i fire the bosom, and nerve the arm of patriotism in the cause of Union. Notwithstanding these threatening evils, it is gratifying to see, that our admirable system of lice government, based upon the will and the affections of the people, continues to unfold the appropriate ability con tained in its structure, to withstand the assaults of lorcign and domestic foes. The enemies of our Government, whether open or insidious— under whatever specious form or pretext—ap pear to be doomed to discomfiture, whenever they attempt to alienate the affections of the people from that Government, which is em phatically, the offspring and nursling of their: wn effort and care. The people may alter and change as to them may seem fit; but that they would destroy that mighty governmental fabric, reared by the toils and cemented by the loou of their lathers—merely for the aggran dizement of selfish demagogues and strife-stir ring politicians, is not to be expected. The spirit that guided our Washington has hithcito pervaded and saved our country. The cham pions of civil and religious liberty, ofpopulir rights and constitutional government have thus far succeeded and triumphed over all opposition Therefore, we should not be dismayed at the symptoms of yielding integrity and treasonable ; ambition, which have been engaged in estima-, ting the value, and threatening the dissolution j of our Federal Union. lam willing to charge the enors of all such, rather to selfish delusion, than traitorous design; and will therefore hope, that the clouds, which at present overshadow our political horizon, may quietly pass away, before they gather into a ruinous tempest. But it has been truly said, “that the condition on j which God granted liberty to man, is perpetual vigilance.” We, therefore fellow citizens, as the sentinels of the people, should exercise the most unceasing vigilance, and suffer not our selves to be led astray “by every wind of doc- j trine.” Let us follow in the footsteps and au” hereto the doctrines ofWashington, Jcffersorx and Madison, and so far as the influence and example of Georgia will extend, our Republic will be safe. The drawing of the Lotteries, which were ia progress at the last session of the Legislature, was completed about the first of May last; and the act of the Legislature, providing for the organization of ten new counties out of tho Territory thus disposed of, has been carried into effect—and we have now, a settled freehold population on every part of our Territory com petent to the administration of our laws, so far as to secure most of the blessings ot our system to those, whose enterprise has led them to be come settlers in that interesting section of our State, hitherto the abode of a people wholly unqualified to enjoy the blessings of wise self government. The accomplishment of this great and desirable object to our State, has been at tended, at every step, with the most unrelenting and obstinate opposition. The unfortunate rem nant of the Cherokees has, years past, been made the dupes and instruments of selfish and ambitious politicians, whose restless spirits hav© uiged them to acts of mischief, degrading to humanity itself. In the early part of the pre sent year, another earnest and liberal effort was made by the President of the United States to effect a treaty with the Cherokess, having fox its object their entire removal beyond the Mis sissippi—which object, it is believed, was de feated alone, by a few of the interested half breeds, who are evidently under the influence of political men, who stand opposed to the tru© interest of the Indians, es well as that of the State. The failure to effect a treaty has not, however, prevented a continuance of our efforts tu effect tlie object of removing the Indians, cJ as early a day as practicable. Another oppor tunitv of enrolment for emigration, has been extended to such as may be disposed to remove; and l am gratified to learn, that many of tho intelligent and influential among them, liavo availed themselves of the liberal terms proposed. Tin r.. tore, the day cannot be distant, when tli© Stale will be entirely relieved from the perplex ities occasioned by this portion of its population. It will, however, become the duty of the Legis lature, ot its present session, to revise and amend out laws providing for the government and p. election of the Indians. Experience has ahead;, exposed many defects and ambiguities in th< xi-ting laws on this subject which should be speedily remedied. In our anxiety to pro vide for the welfare and protect the righfs of tin- unfortunate race, we have, insome instances given aa; milages to the native population ovc our v.:, ;. citizens; which advantages, when exercised ui'iiv- the influence of selfish counsels, bi-i-cir.i opp. - ive to our white population, who are i tastily not less entitled to the protection of our laws, than the native race—however just may u- their claims on the sympathies of r. e.ilight ad government. ;.ier our existing laws, the reservations’ of i uui secured to the natives during their pleasure, ar. , in many instances, unreasonably large and ought tube curtailed by Judicious legislation. 1 would also call the attention of the Legislature ta another description of riativo i la.n.s, which involves considerations of the greatest importance to the interest and honor of the State. A class of individuals, chiefly ot’ the white and mixed blood, and who claim the right of natives within the limits of Georgia, are persons, who, under the treaties of 1817 acd 1819, took valuable fee-simple reservations of the best lands then ceded, under an expressed, written determination to become citizens of tho l nited States—and consequently, abandoning all the claim of rights or privileges, as a pan or portion of the Cherokee nation. Never theless, these persons have since sold and disposed of their reserved lands, thus taken for large considerations of money for their individ ual benefit; and have gone into the country still occupied by the remnant of the Cherokees, and have again and settlements on the most valuable lands, of that portion of their people, who have not participated in an equal degree with themselves, in the benefit* of the treaties referred to. Moreover, these very individuals, by their superior intelligence, and advantages of education, have had tho address to regain an influence over the Cher okees wlton the - had once abandoned to the.';- fate—so ar as to rule, govern and influence them in all matt< is relating to their mest im portant intei* st; and have beeD, for years pus:, and continue to tie, the prime and efficient cause of preventing tiie Cherokees trom yielding to the liberal and beniticcnt plans ol the Federal Government, for removing them to the west qf the Mississippi. The insolence, and mis chievous intiluence of these individuals should no longer receive the indulgence or countenance of extraordinary privileges from the Federal os State Government; but should be treated bv both governments as intruders of the must as suming character. The lands, now in the ot* cupancy ol these persons under our existing laws, ought to bo granted to the drawers; who are the rightful owners, and who have been restrained from the occupancy by the laws of tho State now in force. These persons hat -; already done their own people, the State of Georgia, und our common coun ry. great and serious injury. They have been the dupes a net, m ’rumeuts at home und abroad, of desperate political agitators; w hose factious spirits aio unbridled by the restraints of virtuous patriot ism. A judicious and veil regulated system of publio economy requires, that fho people r ,r.; SO. 316,
