CIIEltOKEE TREATY.
Wo arc now enabled to state, up >n authentic informa
tion, the conclusion of a treaty between the U. States and
the Cherokee Indians, by the stipulations of which they
have agreed to remove beyond the Mississippi. Although
Ross has not signed (he treaty, the terms are so libeial.
that we entertain no doubt of its reception |,v tin* great
body of the nation, and its final ratification by the Se
nate. This is a consummation devoutly to lie wished,
as it will at once relieve not only Georgia, hut North
Carolina, Tennessee .and Alabama from the annoyance
ot an Indian population. For the success of this mea
sure, the country is greatly indebted to the persevering
efforts of Ciov. Lumpkin.'
The course of Gen. Jackson upon'this question, is too
well known to require comment. From 1T7, at which
time he concluded a treaty with the Clicrokces, for all
the lands they occupied in Georgia, which treaty was
arrogated by John C. Calhoun, us Secretary of Wav, he
has been uniformly in favor of the removal of the In
dians, and ot the right of the States over the country in
question.—Milledor.eillc Standard.
To the Cherokee Tribe of Indians East of the Mississippi
Hirer.
My Friends : l have long viewed your condition with
great interest. For many years 1 have been acquainted
with your people, and under all variety of circumstances,
in pence and war. Your fathers were all known to me.
and the regard which I cherished for them haft.ciiowtl-rilc*
to feel great solicitude for year -• *••»■}. 'j u t|lL.8t.
'®Pi growing at lormer recollections, have been ad
ded the sanction of official duty, and the relation in
which. by the constitution and laws, i am placed towards
you. Listen to me, therefore, as your fathers have lis
tened. while l communicate to you my sentiments on the
critical stale of your affairs.
You are now placed in the midst of a white population.
Y our peculiar customs, which regulated your intercourse
with one another, have been abrogated by the great po
litical community among which you live ; and you are
now subject to the same laws which govern the other
citizens of Georgia and Alabama.—You are liable to
prosecutions for offences, and to civil actions for a breach
ol any of your contracts. Most of your people are un
educated, and are liable to b- >- -^.le.U.o ... ,t ;l||
times with their white neighbors. Youryong men! ;iro
•cqlniiiig iluiJits m ihirt.vic.Uion. With strong’pas
and without those habits of restraint wh eh our laws in
culcate and render necessary, they are frequently driven
to excesses which must eventually terminate in their
ruin. The game lias disappeared among you, and you
must depend upon agriculture and the mechanic arts for
support. And. yet, a large potlion of your people
have acquired little or no property in the soil itself, or
in any article of personal property which can lie use
ful to them, flow, under these circumstances, can you
live in the country you now occupy ; Your condition
must become worse and worse, and you will ultimate
ly disappear, as so many tribes have done liefi.re you.
Of all this 1 warned your people, when I met them in
council eighteen years ago. I then advised them to sell
out their possessions cast of the Mississippi and to re
move to the country west of that river. This advice I
have continued to give youat various times, from that
period down to the present day, and can you now look
hack and doubt the wisdom of this counsel? Hail you
then removed, yon would have gone with all the means
necessary to establish yourselves in a fertile country,
sufficiently extensive for your subsistence, and beyond
the reach of tire moral evils which are hastening your
destruction. Instead of being a divided people as you
now are, arrayed into parties bitterly opposed to each
other, you would have bei n a pri xperous and a united
community. Y our firms would have bcthi open uml cul
tivated, comfortable h .n.-sr•.- would have been erected
tbe means of subsistence abundant, and you would have j
been governed by your own customs mid law: , and re-!
moved from the effects of a white population. \\ here
you now are, you tiro encompassed l.y evils, moral and
physical, and these are fearfully increasing.
Look even at the experience ot' the last few years.—r !
YVhat have you gained by adhering to the pcruici >us !
counsels which have led you to reject the liberal offers
made for your removal? They promised you an ini- ;
provenient in your condition, lint, instead ol lh.it. every
year has brought increasing difficulties, flow’ then,
can you; place confidence in the advice of men who are l
misleading you for their oivu purposes, and whose as- |
stirances have provi d, from the experience of every year
to he utterly unfounded? 1 J ’
I have no motive, my friends, to deceive you, I am
sincerely desirous to promote your welfare. Listen to
me, therefore, while i tell you that you cannot remain
where you now arc. Circumstance* that cannot be con
trolled, and which arc beyond the reach of liiiman laws,
render it. impossible that you run flourish in the midst of
a civilized community. You have but one remedy with
in your reach: And that is to remove to the West anil
join your countrymen, who are already established
there. And the sooner you do libs, the sooner you will
commence your carer r of improvement and prosperity.
A number of your brethren, who have been delegated
by tnat portion of your people favorable to emigration,
have repaired to this place, in the hope of being able l i
make some arrangement, which would In* accept ddr to
Urn Government of the United States, and which would
meet your approbation. They do not claim the relit of
making any arrangement w hich would bo biiidinj/upon
you; but have expressly stated, that whatever they did
would be utterly void, unless submitted to and approved

Mom iiiik.n Uoimiakv.—The question of our Northern
Boundary lias occupied public attention so lnn<r, has so
TrfTi-n lieen tiie subject ot Executive messages and of de
bates in the General Assembly of this State and in Con
gress, that our citizens are, vve believe, generally ac
quainted with the merits uf the controversy. The dispute, j
however, never assumed so serious an aspect as it lias i
done within a few weeks, owing to the singular pro- {
ccedings of Michigan Territory. Ohio, confiding in the j
justice of her claim,Hud looking from year to yea™ for an i
amicable settlement of a difference that should never
have arisen, lias neglected until now, to extend her
jurisdiction over the disputed territory. 15ut her
reasonable expectations have again and again been
disappointed. Repeatedly has she asked Congress to
exercise tlie power vested in them, to define our boun
dary line, and as often has the subject, notwithstand
ing the strenuous exertions of' the Representation from
this State, been shoved oil'to the last day of the ses
sion, and finally left among the unfinished business._
i Having waited so long ami so patiently, the Legislature,
j which has just adjourned, conceived that it did not com- ]
port with the dignity of this Slate to leave a portion of
1 her territory, to which her citizens believe site has a
j righteous claim, under the jurisdiction of a power foreign
' l‘> Ohio. The recommendation of the Governor, in Ins
S;>ec;nl Message of the t'.th February, was, therefore, re*
| spoilded to with acclamation by both branches of the
j General Assembly, and the necessary laws for extending
I jurisdiction of the Slate to the limits defined in the
I (constitution, Were Unanimously passed. From the de
monstration of public opinion that we have noticed, this
proceeding appears to he not Jess ponpj^r triu'i the people
loan it Was iJ,v General Assembly, and by none lias
it been received with greater approbation, than by the
i inhabitants of the “disputed tciritory.”
i This is evident from the proceedings of the meeting
i lu-1.1 at Tremainsville, on tiie ”-lh ult. and from the Ibf
j lowing extract from the report of a committee appointed
by a meeting held at Monro.'; ALT. on the *2?lh ult. to
I remonstrate with the citizens who should assemble at
I 1 rerdainsville, on tlie following day. Tlie Committee
j »*y, "In conclusion, they express their firm conviction
I that a large portion of tlie inhabitants on the disputed
I ground, ure tally prepared and determined to resist the
l further operation *f our (Michigan’s) laws in that dis
trict, ami that the crisis has arrived when every imiivi
j dual is called upon to step forth in support ol' our civil
I authorities, and the rights of the territory.” From these
| indications, we judge that but little if any difficulty
will lake place in carrying into effect the late law pass
: .'.1 by our Legislature, i .
I y 0'X~iir-vuu>ffTri„n.l rcj- ovl
selves us citizens of Ohio, and will doubtless proceed to
elect the proper township and militia officers without delay
and receive the necessary commissions from the Executive
of this State—the act of the Legislative Council ot Michi
gan Territory, and the bombastic General Order the
Acting Governor to the contrary notwithstanding. This
high-sounding Order, it will be noticed, was issued before
the passage of our law—and if one were to jmhm iVom
the loftiness of its style, and the still more ominous
and ur.-adtu) tone ofGeneral Brown's General Order, he
would be apt to think that we are about to invade M chi
Territory with a terrible army—and, as Nimrod
\\ ildhre would say, “ tctaciously cxflunekticate them
troin • »ll lilt* face* <1 LJ10 aiih. We assure thorn that
Ohio has no such intentions. All she wants is what she
religiously believes is her right. She will nt.l lie the
aggressor, hut she will have justice.— Hemisphere.
Wc observe it stated, and we presume correctly, that it
is Mr. lJenj. t . Howard, of Baltimore, and not Mr.
Rives, ol \ irginiu, who lias been associated with Mr.
Rush, by the Executive, to go to the West, to endeavor
to adjust the boundary difficulty between Ohio and Mich
iff-m.
Our latest paper from Detroit is to tlm L'Otli of last
in- i.th. At that time no further intelligence had been
received in relation to the dispute. Tbe military move
men's of the Michigan militia have bien temporarily
suspended. The Advertiser aays :
*• The Adjutant General ot Ohio has issued general
orders to the militia of the Northern counties to prepare
for a conflict. From the v irions manifestations of the
I.X(i ut.ve ot that State, it is probable lliit an attempt
" '•I mad. to anticipate any movement on the pail ot
the General Government, and to take possession of the
disputed tract before any counteracting measure can he
interposed. We trust no indiscreet zi at on either side
will propel the parties to a collision which will endanger
the pubi c peace. Michigan will act on the defensive* it
is due, against a powerful foe, but if hosiihtiea should ac
tually commence, they will be soon stayed by the Gene
ral Government.”
The Advertiser contains a letter from the Delegate
ot the Territory in Congress, Mr. Lyon, in w hich it is in
timated lout the pri sufee.t has expressed his determina
tion to support Michigan in retaining tin? Terrhorv_
.Vat. hit. ° 3
IV e Observe a nolle.- m several paper*, of the nppoinl
iin nt Rt Mr. Kiixli ami Mr. Kives, as Co:mni<Mioucrs, for
the purpose of settling the existing differences between
t ie State of Ohio and the territory of Michigan. This
statement i.i erroneous as regards the falter gentleman,
rhe lion. Ih.-iij.mhii C. I Inward, of Maryland, has hern
associated, in this interesting mission, with the former
well known and patriotic citizen. The selection of Col.
Howard nitist give general satisfaction; as a represc-nla
tive in CMngress. liom his native Slate, he was distin
guished hy eminent talents, and hy a manly, disinterest
ed, mid consistent cou*-e of public conduct; Ins senti
ments on questions of national policy, have always been
high-minded and liberal, while hi. temper and disposi
tion, at once firm and conciliatory, will make him an
rlhcirnt and useful colleague with our own esteemed
. fellow-citizen.
I t ruin the efforts of these gentlemen the best hopes
| may he indulged. Surely on u question of disputed
boundary, there ran exist no feelings of permanent bus
tihty. It cannot be, tint it is not susceptible of arnica
| ti.e ad-nslcient. it not of judicial decision; mid feelings
i o| local prejudice or pride must have been permitted to
jilt mi useless and unbecoming influence, when they
have induced communities, bound together by mutual in
j »»id sympathies, thus to array lii'unselvc* against
' eacli other.— rriiufi/raniun.

made for another Revolution in this miserable country.
In a lew words, it was thus ; The last few weeks being

about ten months since) returned from Guayaquil, and

ot the principal candidates for the Presidency.
On New-Year's morning, at sunrise, we were not a
liule surprised to sec the American flag hoisted on the

put lor the Law." lie was she* dead at tlu* instant'_
The Governor, and all the officers of the Castle
were then seized, und confined. The Ensign wa nt
immediately on board the Fairfield, ofleriiif the com
mand of the Castle to General La Fuente, and three
hundred troops tor his disposal, which La Fuente re
fused,— (probably from motives of deep policy)_and re
quested tiie young man to liberate the Officers and re
store things 11 order, lint he knew that he had gone
too t.ir to retrace his si. ps. and he told La F. that lie
would hold out to the last, amt only give up with his
lile. The General of Marine and Captain of the Port
w vre then sent off to lu g La Fuente to come on shore
and lake command, as tlie inhabitants of the town fear

lier of outrages.: hut La Fuente still persisted in his

not laud without La Fuente. About 14 o’clock the sol

raiac to the Castle walls to holt! a parley with the re
V"llt*rs. They, however, would not listen to him, hut
order, d lit :d oil. and before he had gone a hundred paces
they fired several large guns, hut only killed a horse.—
I 'lings now beg m to look !iad. The Commodore sent a
communication to our Minister at Lima, and at the same
time La 1 uente wrote to tin* Coverninent, saying that the
e.vil anthoriticM of this place had put themselves at his
command, and he requested permission to take command
ol the Castle, with the hone of bringing the men to a
sense of their duty, and then immediately resign the
command to tiro Coverninent; hut the Coverninent ro
ftised to listen to his proposals. That night at 8 o’clock
rsilavery commenced an attack on the Castle, which
was kept up by a brisk firing on both sides, until day
light, by which time the poor wretches in the Castle were
exhausted, and then .Safavery made a grand assault, and
gained the < 'a.- tle walls, lint he was not able to hold on.
In the a I ter noon the Commodore sent port-fires, for si<r
nals, to all the American merchantme n, in case they
were m want of assistance, fearing that the mountaineers
might (some down to rob. Our schooner was anchored
veiy near in, and ah.mt two hundred yards from the
< ist.e. I he musket halls whizzed by us in no small
numbers, and we got ready to slip, in case the large shot
enme too near.— About II o’clock at night the port-fires
were burned. The Cupt. ordered me to arm the boat,and
render all the assistance in my power to the ship that had
made, the signal. In a moment 1 was alongside the
j. ,arl» , * fbo only wanted assistance in getting out,
iiinimg her berth raih.-r too warm, with the shot llyinf
about m all directions, and it was the wost wanton
firing that barbarians could be guilty of. I was on board
llie rear I but about twenty minutes,—though by that
tunc, ail the shipping had made the signal, and boats from
all the meii of-war were sent to their assist nice. I took
the ship Oneida in tow, shortly alter which 1 heard a shot
strike tiie ship. 1 he .Slate (her Captain being at Lima,)
sung out to give way strong in the boats. The next .no
incut | saw a shot strike about filly feet from -the beam
ol my boat, nnd in an instant, whiz it wiYit over the
bow-man, nnd struck a boat’s length the other side of us
I began to think that the rascals ashore intended making
game of every thing. ”
Though several idiot made (hat delightful whizzing by
us, we were most happy to have them pass at a little
more respectful distance than the two first. Some of the
bpiits made a nn>st narrow escape. The Monitor of the
1‘ airfield had a spent shot of lbs. go through her side,
and lodge m tlu* boat against the other side. JJut, fortu
nately none of our officer* or men were hurt,—though all
hands were most confoundedly tired when we got abroad.
AM tho shipping slipped their moorings, and dropped out
near the C .rm iden,—and as the shot begun to.pass thro’
cur rigging, we thought it most prudent to be a little
former olf, ns all the fun was to be one side, According
ly.nt three A. M , we slipped and dropped out. but only
one or two shot were fired afterwards.
I will end the y,irfi in short metre.—The next morn
ing, about eiyht o clock, the Castles wore given up, nnd
p iMsension l iken by Cen. S iInvcry, and thirty prisoners
were l iken, numbers having deserted in the early part
of the morning. The thing was then all over, and the
l-.nHign was taken—and ho was a fool for it, us there was
n * »o fie for him, and in the magudne there was an im
mense quantity of powder,on the top of which he ought
to have not himself and touched the match—and then
he would not have lo rn brought out the next day nnd
shot, with fifteen of the miserable creatures he had
l ien tho means of leading astray. If the Knsign had
l-.iehetl ||„. macrizine, as was generally expected, the
’ 'plosion would have b< ■ n tremendous. '1’he town
\ ■ it c nnpletely dew rted. Many of the houses have been
run h injured by the shot. The house in which poor
Diuiii’iioud « leg was amputated nnd where be had to

liuil one did not take the good follow out of pain, and
*p .e him all that he has suffered since; for now it is

belih.-mi.it sincere sympathy for his bard lot. The

by Richard Singleton, Esq., of South Carolina,
will stand the ensuing season at the subscriber's stable,
in Nelson county, Va., 10 miles south of Rockfish Cap,
and miles west of Charlottesville, at the moderate
price ol 20 dollars the season, payable at the expiration
thereof; .15 dollars insurance, to bo jiaid as soon os the
mare is ascertained to be in foal or parted with. Filly
cents, cash, in each case, to the groom. Very extensive,
and a variety of well-enclosed pasture, will be furnished
gratis,^consisting ol rye-fields, timothy and orchard-grass
lots. The subscriber is as well prepared to do that justice
which is due from the proprietor of a stallion to the
owners ol mares, as any one in Virginia, and no exertion
on his part shall be wanting to render that satisfaction
which is so important to his interest. Marcs with colts,
will be kept separate from other mures; and should anv
be sent before foaling, separate lots with shelters are pro
vided fbr the purpose. Mores will be plentifully led with
grain, when requested, at 25 cts. per day. Servants sent
with mares will be boarded gratis; and every effort to pre
vent accidents or escapes, but 1 cannot be liable for any
that may happen. Any person sending six mares will be
charged but for five.
