DEBATE ON THE GEORGIA CLAIMS.

Mr.. Lucas. l am, Sir. in favor or the
amendment proposed TO the report nov
under consideration. The unparalleled
fraud which hath been praetised by the
Divers land companies s!iied purchasers
under the ACT or predtnded acl of Gsor-
gIa OF l795, and by the legislature that
passed that aet, have been fully noticed
and exposed in the course Of the debates
which did take place on The same subject,
during the last session of congress, aud
again during these two last DAYS. This
notorious fraud, odious as il is OH the part
oil the land companies, is still much more
SO on the part OF the members Of the Ie
g'siature OF Georgia, as their country had
cohiided ~ them, and that themselves had
pledged their faith under the obligation
ct an oath. But there are other instances
OF fraud and deception, materially affe9-
ing the purchase or claim i'm question.
winch have been solely pra6tised by the
iahd companies, and in which the lepis
Ia'ure OF Georgia had no kind of partie;-
patton These charges cannot be resist
ed by the ordinary means of dcnia, Of
iac's'tor 'heyare supported upon authentic
bCCuilicttSs
IL ought TO be observed that the four
'and companies who are original purcha.
sers under the ACT of the legislature oi
Georgia, passed on the 9TH January, l7os,
stated in their petition containing their
proposals to the legislature, to purchase
certain lands belonging to the state oil
Georgia, that the land contained within
'he bounds which we're described in their
petition, amounted to ALSO, 900 acres,
u was evidently upon the faith of this
statement, that the legislature consented
70 sell that land for 100000 dollars
fioweyer 1t is now ascertained that the
quantity OF the land thus described a.
mounts to 100000 of acres, and the
companies themselves compute it to be
near 4O,ooo,ooo. From this il appears E.
viaen'ly that the companies have deceiv-
ca the legislature by stating what was not
true that contracts are legal and obligato-
ry' The parties ought not only to have
contracted with liberty or choice but they
/ ought also to have contracted with due
