so black, and so diabo.ical, was at the
bottom Of it. Sell the frigate Constitu-
ton! We have no patience to think Of

Mr.. WIsr has given vory clear and satis-
factory opinion relative 10 the question wheth.
or Georgia has right to extend her laws O.
yer the Cherokee Nation,
From the time of.thc discovery Of .his con.
tineni by Europeans to the present period,
the Cherokces have existed rs an independent
nation. They have sought protection from
other powers, but they have never been sub
jected To their dominion. Ia all treaties made
by the United States with tho Chcrokces thcy
have been recognised as a sovereign people.
These treaties have admitted tho exclusive
righ, Of the Chcrokccs TO govern themselves,
the inviola5ili,y ofther territory, and by trea-
~ we have also acknowledged their right to
declare war against The United States whom.
ever they might deem tho act expedient. Il
therefore follows inevitably from these trea.
lies that the State of Georgia cannot without
gross injustice, attempt to extend hor laws o.
yer a Territory, the inviolsbility Of which 10
guaranteed 10 the Chsrokees by the govern.
ment Of the United States.
The idea that the existence of the Chcro.
KEGS as an independents people within the lin.
its Of Georgia, is government within go,
crnmcnt, is absurd. The,case contemplated
by tho political axiom, is tha, Of two distinct
and equal sover,ssntes to operate on the same
portion Of territory. The Chcrokeos do nNt
claim the privilege Of exercising jurisdictions
over any territory save that which is exclusive
ly their own. t,.
To this they are clearly en,itled-and tho
government the United States, if there's il,
any by the obligstion Of treaties is bound "a.

part Of Geogia
