The country inhabited by the Chocta vs. ,uJ ,,,;. i,
they are about TO soINto the United States is large
and valuable. IL commences n little South of the
SD and reaches to the 35th degree of North latitude,
and extends from the Mississippi to the Tombiubee
river. The length, from n. West to South East. is
upwards OF two hundred miles, and the average
width scarcely less than eighty. According TO our
estimate II contains about ten millions of acres within
the State OF Mississippi. besides a small portion in AL
ALBANIA. The Y"zoo river, with its tributary streams.
are the principal water courses. For the relinouish-
ment of this territory the Choc.aws ask a million Of
dollars with a section of land for each man I'm fee
simple west of the Mississippi; the expense of their
transportation and subsistence for one wear 10 be
borne by the United States. These terms compsred
with the prices usually paid for the relnoui-hment
oil indian tue may appear extrayagant- but n little
expense should not be an obstacle in getting the In
dians removed peaceGbly and amicably. The RIO.
vernment should treat them not only with Justice.
but with liberalrty.
The Importance OF Mississippi as a State Will be
speedily ana largely Increased by the emigration of
the Choc,aws, who, together with the Chickasavy s.
occupy the largest aud best part of it. We have
thought, that one Of the reasons tpc-haps the chief
one) why certain people of the North are so strongly
opposed TO tine Indian emigration, and which we are
persuaded has more influence on their conduct than
compassion for the red men, is, that IL will Give fo
