THE CHEROKEES.
The Cherokee Council have solemnly appealed to the
people of the United States against the GO
vernmcnt. They have declined deputing their chiefs
to meet the President OF the United States negotiate
for an emigraon-and they have resolved appeal
the Supreme Court of the U. States, in behalf of the
faith Of treaties made with them-They soIemnly pro-
test LIST: against the extension of the municipal urs-
dctono the state of Georgia their land; 2dy against
the law Of Georgia which Furnishes any who will
prevent the Indians from cedng their lands to the State
and 3dy, against the order of the War Department to
rsmove the intruders upon the lands occupied by the
Cherokees.
This address of the Cerokee Council has been pub.
lished in handful form by themselves, and circu-
lated through the Union-It has also formed the
subject OF many a aboured commentary, and pathetic
appeal, by the opposition papers-unt at length the

Mr.. Jefferson conceived the idea OF the emigration Of
the Indians to the West of the Mississippi he
had obtained the cesson of Louisana.The following is
the Message Of President Monroe in 1925, upon the
subject:
", o. oc
Being deeply impressed with the opinion, that the
removal Of the Indian tribes from the lands whch ib
occupy within the limits Of the several states and
territories, to the country lying westward and north
ward thereof, within our acknowledged boundarie /.
Of very high Importance TO our Unioo, and may be

the interest and happiness Of those tribes the attention
OF the Government has been long drawn with the great
est sociiude, TO the object. For the removal Of the
tribes within The limits OF the state of Georgia, the
motive has been peculiarly strong, arising from the
compact with that sta'e, whereby the United Safes
are bound TO ex,insu'h the Indian title to the land,
within II, whenever may bs done praceably and on
reasonable conditions. In the fuI6rDen Of this com.
pact have thought that the United States should act
with generous sprt, that they should omit nothing
which should comport with the liberal construction OF
the instrument and like wise be in accordance with the
just rights OF those tribes. From the visw which |
have taken OF the subject am satis6sd, that, in the
discharge OF these important duties in regard 10 both
the parties alluded to, the United States will have To
encounter no conflicting Interests with either: the
contrary that the removal OF the tribes, from the
