Tie decrease in numbers of the
tribes within the limits .oft'Ic States
and Territories has been most rapid.
Ifshsy be removed they can be pro-
tected from t'lose associations& evil
practices which exert so pernicious
and destructive aninauence over their
destinies: They can be induced to
labor and to acquire property and its
acquisition will inspire them with a
feeling !4ofA independence. Their
minds can be cultivated and they can
be taught the value of salutary and
uniform laws and be made sensible
OF the blessings Of free government
and capable ofenjoying its advanta-
ges. In the possession of property
knowledge and a good Government
free to give whatdirection they please
to their labor anil sharers in the .le-
gislation by v hich their persons and
the profits of their industry are to be
protected and secured they will have
an ever-present conviction of the i'm.
portance ofunion peace among them
selves and Of the preservation of am
icable relations with us.
The.interests of the United States
would also be greatly promoted by
freeing the relations between the
General and State Government from
what has proved a most cmbarrass-
ingencumbrance by a satisfactory adj
justment of conflicting titles to land as
caused blythe occupation of the Indi-
ans, and by causing the resources of
the whole country to be developed by
the power of the State and Cen
eral Governments and improved by
the enterprise of a white population.
Intimately connected with this sub
ject is the obligation Of the govern.
ment to fulfil its treaty stipulation
and to protect the Indians thus as
semblod Eat their new residences
from all Interruptions and disturban-
ces from any other tribes or nations
whatsoever" and the equally obliga-
ton to guard against Indian hostility
on its border settlements, stretching
along a line of more than a thousand
miles. To enable the Government
to fulfil this pledge to the Indians.
and to afford adequate protection to
its own citizens will require the pre-
sence Of a considerable regular force
onthe frontiers and the establishment
ola chain of permanent posts. Elk
anlinations Of the country are now
making with a view to decide on the
most suitable points for the erection
offortresses and other works obedience
