FROM THE CHEROKEE NATION.

FROM THE TAHIEouAH ADVOCATE or SEPTEMBER %.
Our National Council meets next Monday. the Sd Of
October. Many important matters viii no doubt be
brought before them for action And are Of opinion
that there will be subject deserving more of their
watchfu and attention than the reports that have
been made the General Superintendent with regard to
the condition of affairs in country growing out Of the
late killing of the Adars in Flint 1t has been reported
to him by individual that domestic strife exists
in nation and calling upon him to interfere in in
terna affairs palpable Misrepresentation Of ex-
listing circumstances and facts could not have been made
The appeal to the authorities Of the United States for
protection Is in our view despicabe henous trail
torous and suicidal to the interest of this country than
the killing complained Of and, knowing as we do the
great desire OF Of kind neghbors pretex to
interfere in our affairs this Misrepresentation of facts to
Gov DREW by five or six individuals strikes us as grave
offence But, knowing as we do Gov. DaEws great de-
cision of character minded and honorable bearing
deep Of justice and his desire to do Justice he will
not interfere in internal affairs when correctly in
formed how much he has been imposed upon There is
domestic strife in country contemplated in the
9th article of the treaty of '35.

CITIZENS.
We again express says the Advocatc) the hope that
the country will not be thrown into any further excite
ment account of the deed Let the law be applied If
individuals will take upon themselves the trouble to at
tempt to the feelings Of those whom they may
slider influential to them to take active part
for against the perpetrators Of the deed they do the
entire country injury and insult the good of tho
men appealed to. Bad men, it will be said have origi-
mated this and that this is only the beginning of
the ultimate design of which is to subvert the govern
ment and the killing of the best in the country We
do not believe any such reports. The whole thing, the
and the length to which it will CO. is expressed in
the above communication No further injury any other
citizen, we believe, will be attempted Then again we
say let those who have the prosecution of all offenders
pursue the legal course without excitement, and evil
result need be apprehonded for the country. Listen to
no tales; keep cool: find that excitement OK
lists the other side of the line and other districts in the
nation than in the immediate neghborhood Of the deed.
