Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Documents and Proceedings Relating to the Formation and Progress of a Board in the City of New York: For the Emigration, Preservation, and Improvement, of the Aborigines of America, July 22, 1829 Dear Sir, I have communicated with the Secretary of War, on the proposed organization of an association in New York, having for its exclusive object, the colonization and preservation of our Indians; and requested permission to transmit, for the information of those who may feel an interest in this great work, a copy of his letter to a Delegation of Cherokees recently at Washington, in which is an exposition of the views of the Executive on the rights of the Indians, to the exercise of sovereignty within the States; and which also discloses the views and feelings of the Executive in regard to these hapless people, generally. With no other restriction than that, he does not wish his letter published. The Secretary authorizes me, in compliance with my request, to send to you a copy. You will receive it herewith. I accompany this letter also, with some views of my own, addressed to Mr. Evarts, at Boston, growing out of this Executive measure, and, which will demonstrate, I trust, the importance of the views recently proposed to you, looking to the organization, in New York, of an association, whose entire energies should be applied towards changing the location of the Indian tribes, now within our States; and also their relations to political, civil, and religious rights.
