that the discussion between the Geory ia and

The Georgia Commissioners submitted the fol-

Influenced by these views embraced in the
preceding part Of the letter1 L" we refrain from
further details OF argument, and submit for your
acceptance the following proposition, viz: That
the boundary between the States of Alabama and

The Commissioners on the part of Alabama, af-
ter detailing their views, submitted the following
proposilion:--
We, therefore, propose, on the part of Ala
bama, that the permanent boundary between the
two States, be now fixed by line to be run and
marked from Nicksjack TO The Great Bend. on the
Cbattahoochie river above the mouth of Jpeehofkce
