ciplcs upon which the administration
acted are set forth in a masterly, but plain and unobtrusive manner. One tact of great importance, and hitherto unknown to the public, is dibdostd by the President, It is, that, on opening the negotiation, the British government urged as an insuperable objection against treating upon the subject, the conduct ot the laie administration, in refusing to avail itself of the terms offered by the act of Parliament ot 1825, and afterwards obstinately pressing demands known to be of the most unreasonable,
extravagant and offensive nature. To obviate this difricuhy, which threatened defeat at the threshold, it became neces sary to allude to the late of the adminis tration by which these claims were preferred, and to apprise the Biitish minis try that they were abandoned by those
then in power. This was done without any belief that it would be more discre ciiiable to the character of our government, for Genl. Jackson to forego pre tensions which he had never urged, than lor Messrs Adams Sc Clay to abandon the same pretensions, after having vain
ly insisted upon them throughout the
progress of a long and arduous negotiation. This administration has yielded
nothing which it ever claimed. Messrs
Adams Ec Clay surrendered the ground fiist assumed by them, and afitt having
suffered all the humiliations which u ight accompany that sunender, were unable
to secure, in return, a suiilary commer
rial privilege. Upon the very terms on
which they begged a treaty, and begged
in vain, General Jackson demanded one,
and succeeded in that demand.
The President assumes, with his wont ed firmness ot character, the responsibi

The Baltimore Patriot expresses the
hope, that the decision of the Supreme
Court, in the case of Worcester vs. the
State of Georgia, will "arrest the pro
gress of the new-fangled doctrines ot
Slate sovereignty." If we uodcrstanu
the tenor and scope of the decision, it
is, indeed, well calculated to render the . -i
very idea of State sovereignty naicu-
lous. If the States cannot legislate over the territories within their acknowledged
limits, whether occupied by white, black or red men, it must be conceded that the
progress of the doctiine of State sovereignty has been roost effectually arrested. -Jbid. The Supreme Court of the United States have decided the case of the Mis onarjes js. the State of Georgia The decision pronounces the law of Georgia, ( under which the Missionaries were con

has fallen jarringly upon the nerves of the coalition. The "galled jades" are wincing, and uttering. those pctulent, desolate ciiesol distress, which we expected this "home thrust' would produce. Let them rave and murmur on; the Pre

make a deep and lasting impression up
on the American people. Its style, its
cogent and lucid argument, the calm, cle

rhe character of the President, and place upon a firm bas"i3 the triumphant vindication of the instructions to Mr. NicLane, which a bare recital of the facts connected with that negotiation, will al-
ways furnish. The even, dispassionate tone with which this transaction is view-
