sa,;o,s mistake in supposing that the last treaty

boundary of Georgia. There is not title in
tbc treaty that has the most distant ailuslon to
that object, nor for one moment would discus

land within the limits of Georgia, every effort
was male to indnce them to agree to a clause to
that effect, in so MANY words. They promptly
refused, on the ground of their ignorance of the
direction of that line Had the dividing line be-
tween Georgia and Alabama been established, !
think il highly probable that we should have
succeeded in obtaining their REIMBURSEMENT; the
more especially as perceive that, even by the
sine run by the Georgia Commissioners, to which
i i understood unofii cially the Alabama Com
missioners dsscnted, there is less than 200, 900
acres of Indian Lands. 1t is a matter of regret
that any difficulty should have occurred between
Georgia and Alabama, in fixing their dividing

the dividing line had been established. tqupen

Of them, he expressed himself as having, long be-
lore, decided in favor of Mr. Adams, in case the
contest should lie between that gentleman and gene
raj jackson. My last interview with him was,
think. the day before his departure, when he was
still more explicit, it was then certain that the
election would be transferred to that tribunal, and
| highly probable that he would not be among the
number returned. In the course OF the conversa-
| ton took occasion to express my sentiments with
respect to the delicate and difficult circumstances
under which he would be placed-on which he re-
marked, that could not more fully apprehend them
than he did himself, but that nothing should deter
him from the duty of giving his vote, and that no
state of things could arise that would justify HIM IN
prefering general Jackson to Mr.. Adams OF induce
him to support the former. So decisive, indeed,
we're his declarations this subject, that, had he
voted otherwise than he did, should have been
i compelled to regard him deserving that species
of censure which has been cast upon him for con-
: ssteny adhering to early and deliberate resou'
'' ton.
When the suggestion Of sinister vote on his par
first reached us, felt disposed to offer, without de

withhold, when he believes another to be unjustly
accused of criminal offence !; but, presuming tina
the result othe inquiry instituted in the house OF re

MIR. Crawfords state of health, and the circumstan-
ces under which he presents himself to the House,
appears to me to be conclusive against him. As a
friend of liberty and to the permanence Of our in
situations, cannot consent, in this early stage Of
their existence. by contributing to the election Of
military chieftain, to give the strongest guaranty
that this Republic will march in the fatal road which
has conducted every other Republic to ruin. owe
our friendship this frank exposition of my inten-
tions--I am and shall continue to be assaed by all
the abuse which partizan zeal. malignity and rivalry
can invent. shall view without emotion these ef-
fusions of malice, and remain mistaken in my pur-
pose. What is public man worth if he will not
expose HIMSELF on fit occasions, for the good Of his

AS to the result of the election cannot speak
with absolute certainty but there is every reason to
believe that shall avoid the dangerous precedent
to which ! allude."
