You M ill distinctly understand, therefo' t,
that I feel it to be my duty' to lesist to
the n’.most any niilit.tvy attack wl.it !i tlie
(loveminent oi the Uniud States, sliab
think proper to make on the territiiry,

to our limited means, arc in jirogress.—
I'rom the first decisive act of hostility,
you will l'»* consideied and treated as a
public enemy, and with the less repug
nance, because you to whom we niigiit
consitutionally ha\o a])peaied for cur
own oelence against invasion, arc your-
htlves the invaders, and what is more,
the unblushing allies of the savages,
Hhose cause you have adopted.

niv conduct to the Treaty of Washington, j
“ which, like all other Treaties, w hich
have received tlie constitutional sanction I
is aiiK'ng the supreme laws ol the land,”
and which the President is therefore
l)ound to carry into ef/ect, ‘‘by all the
means under his control.” In turn-, I
take the liberty to refer you to a Treaty
of prior date, and prior ratification, con
cluded at the h'dian Sjiritigs, a copy of
the Proclamation of which under the
higt) manual of the President, 1 have the
honor to inclose. On a comparison of
dates, the President may think proper to
remind the Congress that the old grant
claitiiS prefetcnce of the new, and that
when vested rights have parsed, tlie old
Treaty, like the old grant, has preference
of the new.
You have deemed it n'cessary to the
personal safely of Lieut. Vinton, to im
pose on him the injunction ol prulound
secM cy, in the execution of your orders,
■whilst you cause to be published at
Washington the very instrurtions which
disclose those orders and enjoin tluit se-

Tlie great object of the bill, howevrr, j
and that towards wliich by !ar the larger ‘

collection and preservation ot Siiie iiM-j

From this brief statement it will be!
seen how extremely important are the i
provisions ot tlie bill, which has just
passed the Senate. Should it meet the
sanction of the House of Pvepreseniaiives,
which we sec no reason to doubt, very
liitle will remain to be done to put the
Na.’y on a fooling of respectability suited
to iis great importance, and the feelings
and expectations oi the country. Indeed,
except a revision of the rules lor the gov
ernment of the Navy, and seme altera
tions in the organization ot the establis'n-
ment iiself.nothing will l emain to be done,
for many \ears to come, lor the further
advancement oi this valuable and inter-
