this extent, Mr.. u. said. the power of the United
States was to be deiuced from the treaty, and
might be admitted without involving the qucs-
ton, of which he desired TO steer clear, in thi,
discussion.
As to the general right asserted for the Union,

Indians, living within the limits oil the States
which came into the confederation, with certain
chartered limits, and those living within States,
who, al the time of the formation of the Consti-
tuition, had no limits, and whose limits were only
defined By the laws regulating their admission into

bill steered clear of all these difficulties; and
