He therefore decides that the entering upon and sur
veying their lands before that period, woudb be an
infracion of the treaty, whose Interpretation and
execution. should it remain uncanceled, are alike
contided to him. am. therefore, directed by the
President, TO state distinctly 10 your Exceency
that TOR the present. he will permit such entry
or survey to be made.
The pain the President has felt in coming TO his
decision is diminished by the recollection that it in
,erferes with no duty imposed on your Exceiiency
by the laws of Georgia, discretion is given you
by the late law of the Legislature in prescribing the
time when the lands embraced by the treaty shall
be surveyed. Under all the circumstances the
President permits himself TO hope that you will ac-
Qniesce in his decision. As General Gaines has
been in communication with you on this subject,
and it is the wish of the President you should be
in possession of every measure he may find him
self constrained to take thereon, l am directed to
enclose TO your Excellency copy ofGen. Gaines
| instructions of this date.
have the honor TO be- your ob't serv't,

Sir : Yours of the 9Th inst. has been duly re-
ceived with the accompanying documents
am directed by the President to express his
gret at the failure of your efforts reconcile the
Creeks 10 an acquiescence in the Treaty made at
the Indian Springs, as il his sincere desire to
have seen it carried into effect. But the de-
terinined opposition of the Indians to the Trea-
,y itself, the alleged grounds OF intrigue
and ,reachery, on the part of the portion OF
The tribe negotiating the treaty, well the
snallncss OF their numbers, from which they
argue its nvalidity and their solemn appeal to the
justice and magnani,nity of the United States ere
ates such obligation that should at least pause
before we proceed permit Others TO do so, until
these allegations can be thoroughly investigated
and their effect decided by the proper authority; the
more especially, as the eighth article OF the Treaty
gives till September of the next year before the
treaty is to be carried into effect, and guarantees
them from encroachment Till that time Ii is in this
posture of affairs Gov Troup insists that he will
survey the lands. a collision by overt acts be-
tween the Executive of the Union, and that of a
State, is against the theory of the constitution,
and repugnant TO the feelings of the President,
that he would determine onl y under a solemn sense
OF duty 10 do act by which serious result
would be produced IfGov. Troup should however
persevere in his declared purpose of surveying the
land against the repeated remonstrances of this de-
nate events which have yet occurred in our histo-
~. It's possible occurrence has induced the Presi-
dent to weigh with the deliberate crcumspec,ion
made necessary, ellby It's serious consequence,
as its high responsibility. His decision thereon has
been made and transmitted to Gov. Troup in a let
Ter OF this date, copy OF which enclose Tor your
information, and by which you will learn the line
OF conduct which the President has prescribed tc
himself
1t is still devoutly to be hoped that Gov. Trour
will abstain from any act that may make it neces-
sary, 10 have recourse TO the steps suggested yet
should he persevete in sending persons TO survey the
lands embraced within the Treaty, you are hereby
authorized employ the military TO prevent their
entrance on the Indian territory, or ii they should
succeed in entering the country, to cause them to be

DEAR SIR: Your note of the 9Th inst, ma
king certain enquiries of me have received, and in
reply to your first interrogatory answer {; that
was member OF the Legislature in the year 1918,
ana secondly, IT was the distinct understanding
with many OF the members of the House Of Dele
gates, that by the passage of the act dividing the
superior Court of Chancery, holden at Richmond,
you would be absolved from the obligation imposed
upon you by the &C, of 1901, requiring you to re-
side where your court holden, as that act does
not say In express terms that you shall live
IN Richmond. The Bill upon that subject as it
passed the House OF Delegates, contained provi-
sion by which you authorized to live in the
county oil Cumberland, being central povtion be-
tween your two courts. The Senate amended the
Bill, by inserting Richmond as the place of your
residence; this was concurred in by the House of
Delegates, with distinct understanding of several
members with whom conversed, that the amend
ment would be perfectly imperative, as the Lees-
lature had not the right to change the tenor by
which you held your Office

Extract from report Of William Strickland, ESQ.
to the Pennsylvania Society for the promotion
oi internal Improvement dated at Edinburgh,
June s.
AS to the relative advantages of railways and
canals In mountains level countries there appears
to be but one opinion among the abest engineers in
England; both modes of transportation have been
practically tested, and although much wealth. and
commercial greatness have been produced by nume-
rous canals, still railroads offer greater facilities for
the conveyance OF goods, with more safety, speed
and economy.
lisa matter ofiitile importance whether the sur
face OF the country where they are introduced be
level or mountainous; these objects are still attain
ell without difiicul'y iflevel horses or locomotive
engineers are used with great advantage; if noun
famous, stationary steamengine or brake is to be
applied on the summit, while the ascent is to be
overcome at once by means of an inclined Plane
II would not perhaps be proper for me to eulogize
this system of internal improvement in report
which is solely intended to convey facts; but feel
II duty which owe to my judgment, as well as
to that OF the liberal society whom have The ho-
nor to serve, to state distinctly my full conviction
OF the utility and decided superiority of railways
over other modes means of conveyance; and
one which ought to command the serious attention
and adoption OF the people of Pennsylvania
