generally, 1 am not
able to add to it information that the
Indian hostilities which have for some
time past, diftrtffed our north weftern
frontiers have terminated.
You will, lam perfoaded, learn with
no lefe concern than I communicate it,
that reiterated endeavors towards ef
fafiing a pacification have hitherto is
sued only in new and outrageous proofs
of persevering humility on the part of
th, tribes with whom we ate in con
test. An earnest desire to procure
tranquility to this frontier—to flop the
farther effiifiOTrof human blood—to ar
rest the progress of expence—to for
ward the prevalent with of the nation,
for peace, has led to Strenuous efforts,
through various channels, to accom
plish these deferable purposes : in mak
ing which efforts, I consulted less my
own anticipations of the event, or the
ferules which some consideration were
calculated to inspire, than the wilh to
find the object attainable, or if not at.
tamable to ascertain unequivocally that
such is the case.
A detail of the measures which have
been pursued and of their consequences
which will be laid before you, while it
will confirm to you the want of success,
thus far will, I troft, evince that means
as proper and as efficacious as could
have been devised, have been employ
ed. The issue of some of them, indeed,
is iliil depending: but a favorable one,
though not to be despaired of, is not
promised by any thing that has yet
happened.
In the course of the attempts which
have been made, some valuable citi
zens have fallen victims to their zeal
for the public service. A fandtion com
monly refpe&ed even among fayages,
I has been found, in this inflance infuf
ficient to proted from matTacre the
emissaries of Peace. It will, I pre
firme, be duly corfidered whether the
occasion does not call for an exercise
of liberality towards the families of
the deceased.
ft moH add to your concern, to be
informed,that besides the continuation
of hostile appearances among the tribes
north of the Ohio, some threatening
symptoms have of late been received
among some of those fouth of it.
Philadelphia, Nov. 7.
Yesterday the Prefideot of the United
States met both Houses of the Na
tional Legislature in the Senate
Chamber and delivered the follow
ing Speech :—
Fellow Citizens of the Senate and
House of Representatives.
The PRESIDENT'S
SPEE C H.
T is feme abatementof
Ithe fatisfa&ion, with
|. which I meet you on
; the present occasion,
that in felicitating you
on a continuation of
the national prefperity
Gazetteer.
[Numb. XXI of Volume VII.
I have reason to believe that every
practicable exertion has been made,
(pursuant to the provision by law for
that purpose) to be prepared for the
alternative of a prosecution of the war,
in the event ofa failure of pacific over,
tores. A large proportion of the troops
authorized to be raised, have been re
cruited, though the number is Still in
complete. And pains have been tak
en to discipline and put them in con
dition for the particular kind of ser
vice to be performed. A delay of
operations (besides being dictated by
the meafares which were perfued to
wards a pacific termination of the war)
has been itfelf deemed preferable to
immature efforts. A Statement from
the proper department, with regard to
the number of troops raised, and some
other points which have been suggest
ed, will afford more precise informa
tion, as a guide to the legislative con
foltations : and among other things
will enable Congress to judge whether
some additional Stimulus to the recruit
ing service mav not be advifeable.
In looking forward to the future ex
pence of the operations which may be
found inevitable, I derive confutation
from the information I received, that
the product of the revenue, for the pre 4
font year is likely to fupereede the ne
cessity of additional burthens on the
community,for the Services the ensu
ing year. This, however,will be better
afeertained in the course of the feffien :
and it is proper to add, that the infor
mation alluded to proceeds upon the
(opposition of no material extension of
the spirit of hostility.,,
I cannot dismiss the Subject of Indian
affairs,without again recommending to
your consideration the expediency of
more adequate provision far giving
energy to the laws throughout our in
terior frontier ; and for restraining the
commission of outrages upon the In
dians • without which all pacific plans
muff prove nugatory. To enable, by
' competent rewards, the employment
of qualified and trusty persons to reside
among them, as agents, would also
Contribute to the preservation of peace
arid good neighbourhood.
If in addition to these expedients,
an eligible plan could be devised for
promoting civilisation among the
friendly tribes, and for carrying on
trade with them, upon a Scale equal to
the« rwants, and under regulations
It was hoped that the treaty of Hol.
fton, made with the Cherokee nation
in July, 1791, would have prevented
a repetition of such depredations. But
the event has not anfoered this hope.
The Chickamagas, aided by feme
banditti of another tribe, in their vi
cinity, have recently perpetrated wan
ton and unprovoked hostilities upon
the citizens of the United States in
that quarter. The information which
has been received on this fubjeft will
be laid before you. Hitherto defen
sive precautions only have been flrick
ly enjoined and observed.
It is not understood that any breach
of treaty, or aggression whatsoever on
the part of the United States, or their
citizens, is even alledged as a pretext
for the spirit of hostility in this quar
ter.
A part of the Cherokees, known by
the name of Chickamagas, inhabiting
five villages on the Teneffe river have
long been in the praßice of commit
ting depredations on the neighboring
settlements.
