Mr.. West moved to reconsider the vote
Just passed. After hearing the Mayors ex-
PLANTATION, he was quite prepared to act, re-
ducing the capital to fifty dollars, and leav-
ing the Mayor full discretionary powers as
to the class Of persons to whom the free
license should be given.
The motion to reconsider was carried, Mr..
Emley accepted the amendment, and the
resolution as amended was adopted
Mr.. Emley introduced the following, and
moved its adoption:
An ordinance for the protection of birds
Be it ordained by the Council Of the city
of New Orleans, That from and after the
adoption and PRONUNCIATION Of this Ordi-
nance, it shall be unlawful for any person
to kill or capture any bird at large, within
the limits of this city, or to destroy or dis
turb the nest, eggs, or young OF any such
bird.
Be it further ordained, That any person
who shall be found guilty of any intractiOn
of this ordinance, shall be fined not less
than five dollars nor more than twenty-five
dollars, one half of which fine shall be paid
to the informer, and one half shall be paid
into the city treasury.
Mr.. Pierce seconded the motion for the
adoption Of the ordinance.
Mr.. BOnzano moved to lay over.
Mr.. West suggested an alternative of five
days imprisonment on the non-payment OF
the fine.
Mr.. Emley pointed out that, under the
law, the recorders were empowered to en-
force city ordinances, and to commit to the
Parish Prison those who did not pay the
fines.
Mr.. Bonzano asked if this ordinance was
intended to extend over the Mississippi
river, and if anybody would be allowed to
kill wild ducks.
The Mayor: Not within the limits of the
city.
Mr.. Finley remarked that in other cities

is then a dictate of justice and humanity
| that the National Council take some ac-
| ton for their immediate relief | would
therefore recommend that the National
| Council adopt as citizens all the freed
men now residing in the Cherokee Ma
| ton or who may return to it within SIX
months from the first day of January,
1871, who would have been entitled to
citizenship had they returned within the
six months specified in the treaty Of 1866.
Il would respectfully call your atten-
ton to the notorious fact of the seizure
of the tobacco factories owned by citi
zens of this nation and situated within
its territorial limits, and also Of tobacco
manufactured in our Nation by our citi.
zens and sold by them to other citizens
Of the Nation, in whose hands the article
was at the time its seizure. This seiz
urc was made by the H. 5. Marshal since
your last meeting under the pretcxt Of a
violation OF the United States Revenue
law which by no rule could apply 10 the
! Cherokee Nation since Indians are not
subject 10 direct tax by the United
States, moreover, our citizens Lad no
notice whatever Of tax due, they feel
ing protected from the operation Of any
tax law 10y the provisions of the 10th ar
ticle of the treaty of 1866 which express
ly provides "that every Cherokee and
4" freed person resident in the Cherokee
" Nation, shall have the right to sell any
"products Of his or her farm including
"his or her live stock, or any mcrchan
disc, or manufactured products, and to
ship and drive them to market without
restraint paving any tax thereon which
is now or may be levied by the United
States on the quantity sold outside Of
: the Indian Country
"The effect of this harsh and unprece
dented proceeding on the part OF the
United States OHleials, was tic same rs
an open robbery by the force Of arms
and is to all intents and purposes an at
tack on the National tights, Our Dele
cation to Washington, taking this view
Of the matter besought the Intervention
Of the proper departments, and might
have succeeded in procuring redress il
the matter had net been submitted TO
Congress and ultimately to the Courts
for the wrong did not cease with the
seizure Of the property, but eliminated
in the prosecution of our citizens. This
has resulted in a conviction of one of the
parties who has taken an appeal to tn
Supreme Court Of the United States.
The question Of Our national rights
being neees arily involved in the issue
of the case, recommend that the Ma
tional Council authorize the employment |
OF the best lawyers to advocate the cause
of f. G. Boudinot, before the Supreme
Court Of the United States"
