The letter or the secretary of War of the 18th May. introducing to this government Maj. Gen. Gaines and Major Andrews, as agents of the United States, to inquire into the causes of the late Indian disturbances ? to adjust the differences subsisting between the Indians, and to inquire into the conduct of the agent for In dian affairs, recommending them as officers distinguished for ability, pru dence and discretion. They were re ceived and treated accordingly. ? With the conduct of the one, you have been already made acquainted ? \n i 1 1 1 that of the other it remains for me to place you in |>osscssion. In the several conferences held i with Gen. Gaines on his first arrival I received repeated assurances from him of friendly dispositions, of up- . right intentions, of freedom from all 1 kind of bias or prejudice which could mislead his judgment, or influence his decisions on any of the topics which, in the execution of his trust, might present themselves for discus sion. Relying implicitly on the sin cerity of these declarations. I began with regarding Gen. Gaines as an honorable and disinterested arbiter between the United States, Georgia, . and the Indians, and so continued to regard him until a short time before ? his insulting letter of the 10th ult. I was received at this department. It j was impossible for this government not to repel that insult with indigna tion. The chief magistrate in his otti- . cial message to the legislature had stated explicitly that M*Intosh and his chiefs had given their consent to the survey, and in support of this statement the letters of M*Intosh were exhibited, with his name sub- I scribed in his own hand, of w liicli Gen. i Gaines had full information. Never theless the certificate of an Indian chief who had deserted from the M'lntosli party, and of a white man of whom Gen. Gaines himself does not pretend to know any thing, is procured to discredit the statement J of the governor, and to exhibit him J before the public as the dupe of the j vilest and shallowest imposture; and 1 in his solicitude to accomplish this he r< ?r?*ets that it is the consent gi\ en I by M l ntosh and his < hit Is to the I survey which, on the information of I'm* agent, you have taken for grant ed to be the sole cause of ail the dis turbances in the nation, and up.;n which you have recently issued tiic mot offensive orders to this govein inent connectcl with that survey, and in your last one even denounced military ve?<geance against those who shall attempt to carry it into execution. hen Gen. Gaines is re buked in the mildest language wliich the unprovoked in.-ult would admit of, he pie- en's liimsell again before t hi* puMic in a letter indulging in most intemperate abu*e of alt the constituted authorities of a .im ereign state, and of the great hod) of its people, and which he causes to I?c published almost a week btforc it was mined at this department. \\ ith regard to the fiiv.t letter ot general Gaines* to which 1 have call ed your attention, l.e does not seem to have been content w ith addressing a letter so very exceptionable t? ? the head of this government ? He as sumes the authority to order its pub lication, on the allegation of some pretended and undefined malicious falsehoods in circulation, and wlo;.!? he makes tire foundation * an appe:i| to the public ? an appeal inose cen surable than that for which the gal lant and meritorious Porter is now answering before a court martial as sembled by your order, inasmuch as j the hitter only defends himself against inculpatory charges made by his own government, whilst the former, who was bound by equal respect to this government, does not pretend that anv charges of any kind had been prefer it') by it against him. It is in this letter too that general Gaines has fallen into the shocking extrava gance of asserting what nobody can believe, that the M'lntosli party which made the treaty, constituted but a fiftieth part of the nation; and it was in the same letter made know n officially to this government that he 1 had happily concluded a pacification of !the Indians when at that moment V reuvjtw from the padfita I lion as he ever hail been, of which fact I have e\en within the passing hour received the rnont incontestable evidence. With regard to the second letter, of the 28th uK. which now that ( aiu writing has for the first time been put into iny hands, and almost a week after its publication, I havo to re mark, that the history of diplomacy will not furnish a parallel, so marked with indiscretion, intemperance, de liberate disrespect, and the outrage of all decency. Gen. Gaines forgets as well what he owes to his own go vernment as to this. His duty to you required him to show respect to this government in all his intercourse with it. If in that iutercourse he had found himself wronged or aggrieved by the authorities here, it was not allowed him to take the redress into bis own bauds; upon representation to you. you were competent to decide the nature and the extent of the in jury be bad received, and of the re dress most suitable to it. He would not confide the exercise of this privi lege to you, no doubt questioning, your fitness or discretion for such matters, but chose to rely on his ow n dexterity and prowess. lie write? among other things of the malig nant villany*' which has been prac tised on the credulity of many of the good citizens of Georgia and other states in reference tutbe Indians and the treaty. A charge so vague cannot be easily understood, much Ies4 dis tinctly answered. Presupposing it to be directed against the authorities of this state and to be in all respects true, who made General Gaines a judge to pass this condemnatory sen tence on the conduct of those autho rities!* It had been understood that you bad reserved to yourself this power, and that Gen. Gaiues was here only as your agent to collect the e\ idences upon which that power was. to be exercised. lie proceeds to make another re ferenee to the certificate cf the Indian chief and the white man; reiterates the expression of unlimited confident e in the veracity of Marshall, eulogi sts him as among the mast worthy of *? the little treaty making party," and comes again to the conclusion that the chief magistrate of Georgia and others are not to he credited against the certificate of such respectable per sonages. M i tli in this hour 1 ha\e re reived the testimony of the friendly chiefs of the friendly party volunta rily given '? that the statement of Joe Marshall to Gen. Gaines is false,'* and I enclose you the certificate of my express, a man of the fairest cha racter and undoubted veracity, to sa tisfy you that Marshall has added falsehood to treachery. In this part of his letter l:c takes occasion to ma nifest his resentment towards the friends of M'Intosh; he calls them <? the little treaty making party," then again "the vassal chiefs of M'Intosh," anil questions their right to gi\e permission to make the sur vey. \\ hat a dispassionate and im partial umpire is this General Gaines ! One would have supposed that, con sulting the magnanimity of a soldier, if l;e departed from the line of neu trality at all lie would be found at the head of the weaker, the innocent and in jured party. Hut the general, con sulting the better part of valor and counting the odds against hint as fif ty to one. throws himself into the ranks of the stronger party, and thus commends himself again to you for the discretion which you had given him in advance. The general is correct in one of his (ir.-iitions, and being in the right him self. he puts \ou in the wrong, and *<? conspicuously that you stand on the insulated eminence an almost solitary advocate for making and breaking treaties at pleasure. General Gaines says, ?? the treaty, no matter how procured, had become a law of tho land," \c. ftc. He had said to the council at Broken Arrow that tha treaty could not be annulled, and must be carried into effect, fcc. fcc. This is good sense. The day before yesterday I received your letter, in which you say Gen. Gaines having informed you that the treaty having been obtained by intrigue and trea efcery, it will be referred to congress for re-consideration. General Gaines tells the Indians that no treaty has ever yet been annulled. You say this treaty shall be an exception to all others; and upon the intormation re cviyvd from Wen. Gaines.
