making of a treaty that would be unexceptionable, have operated within the past year to prevent extensive emigration. The result of emigration bas already been decidedly favorables though from the short time since large bodies were removed, it night readily be supposed that the disadvantages of new locations in a hitherto uncultivated country would still be felt by even the more industrious, skilful, and enterprising whites, most of the emigrants are known to be more comfortably situated, to have becone more attentive to agricultural pursuits, and to have indulged less in those practices that were so destructive to their prosperity, than before emigration. The Choctaws were to have been provided according to treaty with four hundred looms, one thousand ploughs, besides hoes, axes, cards, wheels, iron, &c. &c and rifles and ammunition. The ploughs, hoes, and other smaller arti. cles, have been procured, and perhaps one third of the looms and wheels manufactured. The supplying the remainder of these last-named arti cles must, considering the circumstances, be a work of time. It was found iinpolitic to have them made at a distance ; their great bulk would have created an enormous proportional expense. They have therefore been in the process of manufacture in the Choctaw country. It is known that many of the Choclaws, to whom, uniler the rules of distribution, these articles must fall, are not now, and cannot be for some time, the fit recipients of such bounty. It has, therefore, been thought proper to a tiempt to annul the contract under which they are being manufactured. The instruments of agriculture, with the simpler machines for manufacturing, are in universal demand. The Paltawalamies of Indiana are also entitled to treaty articles of the same description with those of the Choctaws. The Quapaws, a part only of whom have gone from Arkansas Territory to the country assigned them west of the west eru boundary of Missouri, one-half of the tribe having joined the Caddoes on Red river, have been supplied with a variety of articles, consisting of blankets, agricultural instruments, and carpenter's tools. A few luoms were also stipulated for. The Cherokee emigrants are entitled to rifles, blankets, kettles, and some tobacco; the Creeks to rifles and blarkets; and the Seminoles to bhaukets and fincks. No agricultural or manufacturing implements are guarantied to these three tribes. The lastnamed tribe will perhaps be more in need of agricultural instruction iban any other that has errigrated; the first, with more skill, but with a greater degree of vacillation-a more disturbed political condition—has raised large surplus quantities of grain, and evinced west, as it has done east of the Mississippi, some skill in manufactures. Nor have the Choctaw's and Creeks been wanting in agricultural success, for it has been ascer tained that a considerable propostion of the corn puichased 10 subsist newly arrived emigrants was raised by those of prior settlement ; and it has not unfrequently happened that large numbers of emigrants were enabled to raise their own bread before the expiration of the year, during which they are entitled to subsistence, and to dispose of a surplus. There can, then, be no hesitancy in believing that the condition of the emigrant Indians has become decidedly ameliorated. Nothing, indeed, seems to be wanting to create a progressive state of improvement, but a perseverance on the part of the United States in such a course towards them as shall accommodate itself to their gradual advances in civilization.
