Whereas a treaty between the United States of America and the Chickasaw nati- on of Indians was concluded in the Chicka- saw country on the third day of July, in the year one thousand eight hundred and live, and was duly ratilieil and confirmed by the President of the United States on the 22d day of May, in the year one thousand eight hundred and seven, by and with the advice and consent of the senate, which treaty is in the words following, to wit: Articles of arrangement made and con- cluded in the Chickasaw country between James Robertson and Silas Dinsmoor, com- missioners of the United States on the one part, and the Mingo chiefs and warriors of tile Chickasaw nation of Indians on the other part. Article 1. Whereas the Chickasaw nation of Indians have been for some time embar- rassed by heavy debts due to their merchants and traders, and being destitute of funds to effect important improvements in their coun- try, they have agreed and do hereby agree to cede to the United States, and forever quit claim to the tract of country included with- in the following bounds, to wit : be- ginning on the left bank of the Ohio, at the point where the present Indian boundary adjoins the same, thence down the left bank of the Ohio to the Tennessee river, thence up the main channel of the Tennessee river to the mouth of Duck river ; thence up the left bank of Duck river to the Columbian high way or road leading from Nashville to to Natches, thence along the said road to the ridge dividing the waters running into Duck river from those running into BufFaloe liver, thence eastwardly along the said ridge to the great ridge dividing the waters run- ning into the main Tennessee river from those running into Buffaloe river, thence in a direct line to the Great Tennessee river near the Chickasaw old fields or eastern point of the Chiekasaw claim on that river ; thence northwardly to the great ridge dividing the waters running into the Tennessee from those running into Cumberland river, so as to in- clude all the waters running into Elk river, thence along the top of the said great ridge to the place of beginning ; reserving a tract of one mile square adjoining to, and below the mouth of Duck river on the Tennessee, for the use of the chief O Koy or Lishmas- tnbbee. Art. 2. The United States on their part, and in consideration of the above cession, agree to make the following payments, to wit : Twenty thousand dollars for the use of the nation at large, and for the payments of the debts due to their merchants and traders ; and to George Colbert and O Koy. two.thousand? dollars, that is, to each one thousand dollars. This sum is granted to them at the request of the national council for services rendered their nation, and is to be subject to their individual order, witness- ed by the resident agent ; also the Chinhub- hee Mingo, the king of the nation, an an- nuity of one hundred dollars during his na- tural life, granted as a testimony of his per sonal worth and, friendly disposition. All the above payments are to be made in specie. Art. 3. In order to preclude forever all disputes relative to the boundary mentioned in the first section, it is hereby stipulated, that the same shall be ascertained and mark- ed by a commissioner or commissioners on the part of the United States, accompanied by such person as the Chickasaws may choose, as soon as the Chickasaws shall have thirty days notice ef the time and place, at which the operation is to commence : and the United States will pay the person ap- pointed on the part of the Chickasaws two dollars per day during his actual attendance on that service. Art. 4. It is hereby agreed on the part of the United States, that from and after the ratification of these articles, no settlement shall be made by any citizen, or permitted by the government of the United States,on :hai part of the present cession included be- tween the present Indian boundary and the Tennessee, and between the Ohio and a line drawn due North from the mouth of the Buffaloe to the ridge dividing the waters of Cumberland from those of the Tennessee ri- \ ( " to the term of three years. Article 5.—The articles now stipulated will be considered as permanent additions to the treaties now in force between the contracting parties, as soon as they shall have been ratified by the president of the United States of America, by and with the advice and consent of the senate of the said United States.

Mr. Hay stated to the court, that all hopes of the arrangement which he had mentioned yesterday, were at an end, for he had received a letter from colonel Bun's counsel positively refusing to give any ad- ditional bail : That he should therefore go on with his motion for commitment. He observed that he was ready to proceed with ths evidence, in laying which before the court, he should observe something like a chronological order. He should read first the depositions of such witnesses as were absent ; and afterwards bring up such wit- nesses as were present, in such order as to disclose all the events as they successively a- rose. Mr* Wickham stated that there were two distinct charges against colonel Burr ; the first was a charge of misdemeanor, for which col. B. had already entered into recognizance. The other was a c.iarge of high treason a- gainst the United S;ates ; which was once proposed without success, and is n'ojtf a- gain repeatsd. On this charge the United States must substantiate too essential points: first : that there was an overt act committed; and secondly, that col. Burr was concerned in it.—Every thing that does not bear up- on these points, is, of course, inadmissible. The course, thcrefoie, laid down by the at- torney for the United States is obviously improper. He proposes to examine his wit- nesses in a kind of chronological order. Col. B. requires that the evidence should be taken in strict legal order ; the court, and even the opposite counsel will see the pro- priety of observing this order. If the at- torney for the U. S. has affidavits to pro- duce, let him first demonstrate that they have a right to produce them. We first call up- on him to prove by strict legal evidence that an overt act of treason has been com- mitted. If he cannot establish that one point, all the evidence which he can pro- duce is nugatory and unavailing. Mr. Hay had no doubt, that the gentle- man, would if he could suppress all the evi- dence ; that although that gentleman had been so good as to prescribe to him the course he ought to pursue, he should still pursue his own course ; and he would as ure that gentleman that he was almost the last person in the world, whose advice on the present occasion he would pursue. Mr. H. observed that he could not con- sent to such a separation of the evidence as that gentleman had required ; that he should lay all his evidence before the court ; and that the court must separate for themselves. The two charges which are brought a- gaiufl Aaron Burr are naturally and inti- mately blended. They form distinct parts of one great design. What that great de- sign was, in all its bearings and ramifica- tions, I am not absolutely certain. But I have always conceived, that before Mexico was invaded, New-Orleans was to be taken. How then is it possible to separate these two great allegations ? This monstrous de- sign consists of two great plots ; both go- ing on together, and both so strongly con- nected, that accomplishing the one is prepa- ratory to accomplishing the other. If A. Burr's object was to plant his standards in Mexico, he was first to have seized the shipping and banks of New-Orleans. We ask then how can we separate line by line, and word by word, the evidence produced to prove these two distinct allegations ? The designs are comiected,and the evidence is connected- Mr; Burr rose to speak, when Mr. Hay proceeded to the following effect : I have a little more tosay. If, sir, exceptions are thus to be continually taken to the most common measures; if in this way every inch of ground is to be disputed, contrary to every practice that has prevailed in our country, instead of 10 hours or to days, this trial will take up 10 years. What an extraordinary proceeding is this, sir ! Why, sir, we are not to sleer our course tvei> five inches, without encountering some unusual .difficulty or other ! And yet tiie'e gentie- ii r Uils of precedents ! And where, s;r, is tht precedent for mis, that the counsel be- fore an ex; mining court is to be instructed how to bring out Ivs evidence ? I never saw such a tiling done before ; such a thing ought not to be done. It is novel in itself; it is impossible to be practised. Gentle- men may make motions as they please, but tliey will not drive me from my purpose. I will or I will not produce my evidence, whether it pleases them or not. And, sir, it is a p->or compliment indeed that these gentlemen offer to the bench whom they address. If a deposition states any thing <>t a witness says any thing which is irrelevant to the case, cannot the court be trusted foe these distinctions? Cannot they decide whe- ther this evidence is to be .weighed, or that to be rejected ? Do they distrust the judg- ment of the court ? No, sir, they do not j but they wish to hamper us with every trif- ling difficulty which they can throw into our path. The present, sir, 13 a most seri- ous allegation. It affects the life and char- acter of the accused. He has come for- ward with assertions ol his own inn cence ; and he charges us with persecution. Butv sir, does it evince any consciousness of inno- cence, thus to be going against every prece- dent established in this or any other coun- try ? Sir, I trust that thec^urt will go on in spite of all opposition. Mr. Wickham stated, that having taken the liberty of suggesting this course of pro- ceeding, he should advance a few observa- tions on it ; and he did this the more rea- dily, because it had been insinuated that 1 o man standing like himself as a professional man, would have made a motion of this sort. [Mr. H.iy declared he had said to such thing.]] Mr. W. said he. had rights as counsel for his client, and he had rights belonging to himself. No man is heard for himself ; but so long as they employed pro- fessional men to .defend them, these had a right to pursue the best course they con rl devise for the benefit of their client. Ke would therefore go on. Mr. Hay speaks of two distinct charges ; the invasion of Mexico and the seizing of New Orleans : But be fieclarea them to be necessarily blended. How so ? Could iv. t a man " levy war" against 'the United States without an invasion of Mexico ? In Pennsylvania we have seen an insurrection against the United States, b;it no invasv-n against Mexico. Much is said of the left of time and of certain difficulties thrown La the way of the prosecution. As to the first, sir, jst the world decide whether we or himself bave must plead for delay. At *U events, we cannot entertain any fear that this court will be imp: tient. As to the difficulties in their way, wewijl say this, let the gentlemen pursue a regular course • let them Bring this business before the grand jury, and we shall make no ob- jections. But, sir, if they pursue this cour=e ovt-r and oter again ; if they are coht'hiua'Uy throwing difficulties in our own way, we Shall .ni-te out 10 them the same measure which they nivte to us. Who has ever known a proceeding like th« present ? Who has ever heard of the practice of coming out at such a stage as this with a distinct substantive charge, not growing out of the evidence before the court, but from other sources ? Surtly these gentlemen do not cry out for mercy ; thc-y stan-t t>pon the law, and law they sh.dl have. Gentlemen say, that no such exception as this was ever taken, belbre an examining magistrate. But, sir, where are the reporters, that attend private magistrates, to record their precedents ? Ma- gistrates are to go by law ; and what law ? They must observe the rules of «vkleuce. Would gentlemen introduce their witnesses without swearing them ? But the court must have all the evidence; before them ; and " they must separate" the good from the bad. But is tins consistent: with common sense; is it consistent uitlj. the books r The practice has always been, when an attorney introduced a writing into court, to ask what he is to prove by it: when he introduces a p.iper to shew the general contents of that paper. Th s was the prac- tice on the memorable trials of Hardy and Tooke, in England. In chancery business, indeed, a practice has crept in for the jucli/e b'mself to read papers without knowin^auy thing of their general r.ontei l • ; but this is d»ne merely for the sake of convenience^ fie will not certainly apply td"criminal prose- cutions. It is asked, " are we afraid to trust the court" with this evidence. No, sir. We areafraid totrust the court with nothing : but we do fear to prejudicate the mind of the grand jury by this premature and illegal ex- hibition of evidence. Let the time come, when col. B. is to come regularly before the jury, and we shall then see, who shrinks from the testimony. A number of other remarks have been made, sir, about col. B's prehensions, All propriety and decorum have been set at nought: every idle tale which is set a float, has been eagerly caught at by the peop e, The people here are in- terested by them ; and they circulate all o-- ver the country. Sir, if the attorney of the United States shall chese to send up his bills before the grand jury, then I hope the wholeevidence will be laid before the world; and we shall hear no more of rumours and prejudices. These gentlemen say * shall yon pretend to order us ; shall you dictate." No, sir, the law must dictate. The gentlemen, in- deed, have produced a series of jcxevelaht writings and papers; and they must tor- sooth pursue a chronological order- l^o, sir. Away with such informalities. Let gentlemen prove an assemblage ct iiien for war. Let them prove the ©vert act. If ihey do net, I confidently hope that colont-i Burr will be discharged.—Mr. Wickhata here read a quotation from " Fosters Dis- courses oh High Treason-" CONSTANTINOPLE, Maic'i 2.
