with the request that might state the facts In the case,
have to say, that the Great and Little Usage Indian

from north to south, bounded the east by " The
Cherokee neutral lands the south by the northern

and the west by line running from the head sources

able and disbonorable alikc,to ex-
cite the basest passions and preiu-
dices Of the white race against you,
AID if possible prevent the exten.
sion to and conference upon You,
Of that inestimable and boasted
privilege Of the American freeman
l-the elective franchise. In a word,
/ would have remember that tho
Democratic party, as il has exist.
ed for the last ten years, has shown
itself the enemy Of all progress and
advancement, the enemy Of your
race, the enemy of the govern
ment, and therefore, the common
enemy of mankind,
remind you of this, because
when the question was pending,
and the issue still doubtful, that
party, with its accustomed and
characteristic impudence and insin-
cerity, assumed the spirit of
prophecy, and predicted that as
soon as the right to vote should be
conferred upon your people, a large
majority would turn their backs
upon their benefactors and vote
with that party.
or course, no one could mistake
the imposter for the prophet, nor
the pretension for the prophecy
For, if there had been a reasonable
hope for the faith pretended to be
within them, but which was not,
a change would suddenly have come
over the spirit Of their dreams, and
the horrid nightmare (Which the
"nigger' has been to them, dis
turbing their rest, and exciting
troublesome visions of disaster, de-
feat, and disgrace) would have
speedily transformed to the most
beautiful and comeIy steed (inno-
cent of wool) bearing them on to
victory, and filling them with the
most lively and enchanting visions
OF power patronage ana pomp.
But tits for you to say, and by
your future conduct prove whether
these shall be false or true proph-
cts whether you shall stultify your
selves and verify their words.
And remember that you are now
acting a part on the great stage of
the world and in the affairs Of men,
not only for yourselves, and your
children after you, but for the
down -trodden and oppressed of all
nations and climes. And l con-
jure and entreat you to so act it as
to refute and silence the calumnics
of your opposers, and justify the
wisdom, and fulfill the hopes of
your friends. Nay, more. SO act
it that the world may be the better
and move onward toward the day
of universal jubilee.
