lint neither in* Governor nor iu?y other nan, we
conceive, ten admit the constitutionality of that

the treatiee made <u virtue uf the article* of ces-'
?ion of 18*.tt, end jmrtirularly .ol the treaty of
Fort Jeckson, which wes wirJe by the very mm*

t any one recognise the validity of the new treaty
I without admitting the Authority of the 1'resident,
I and senate to ebrogatc at pleasure aity treaty con
stitutionally ratified, for any reason* which m?y
| seem piod to TliU Is en admission which
we bulieve no one W prepared to make. The
validity of the new treaty cannot be recognised,
because' by Hoi ox to the people of Gcyrgia must
admit the authority of tlie President and senate
to revoko tha articles of n^ioement and cession
of 1802?tills aew treaty having virtually reced
ed two of thoxe article* by fixing a new western
Itoundary of Georgia, ana by /piarauiteing to the
ludiau* lauds which do not belong to the United
Slates oi to the Indians, but to Georgia, the |km<
session of which the United States government
w as bound to obtain for Georgia long ago. And
further, we think every man must see that to re
rognite the Validity of the new treaty would be to
admit the power of the President and senate to
render null and void au act uf the state legisla
ture fouudeU on an antecedent treaty, duly con?
eluded aud constitutionally ratified. Where is
the man in Ueorgia, we ask, who would make
such ail admission as tin*/
Under Hum views of the subject will not the
governor feel himself bouQd both by prinoi|de
aud duty to carry strictly into effect the act of the
li^'Slature founded on the old treaty? In doing
this he will only be acting ill accordance with the
opiuion of the lust legitluturo "that the title to
the territory obluined by said treaty within the
limit* of Ueorgia, i? considered a* au absolute
vested luteror, and that uothiug tUort of the
whole territory thus acquired will be MtUfactory,
and that ike right of eutry, umntdimltly vixm thr
rrpiraliuti of the lime limited in the treaty be in
tiilf.il on, and areordiagly tarried into effect:'' uitd
further be will he aotiug in strict occoruance with
the principle* proclaimed by Uio United Slates
court, umltr the sanction and au*plcesof the Unit*
ed State* government iu the case of Fletcher vs.
feck. in that case u wit solemuly decided that
the uct of the legislature having pas*ed vested
right*, these rights could not be diverted by any
hu man (tower, no matter by wltai mean* ??f bri

liuve been obtained. Now in the c.aie Itefore us,

it. This involve* precisely the same principles
with that relied on a* uievedant, and differs from
it only in the particular, that it U stronger in a
tenfold degree.
The Uuited States government cannot, we
think, rnuitttnlljf reiist tbi* course. Aud as for
