Rhode Island American, Statesman And Providence Gazette

From the Cherokee Phenix of June 26.

We have received a short Cherokee communication, written by order of a town meeting in Copsewaytee, expressing the feelings entertained by the people of that place, in regard to the present state of affairs. They tell us they are still united and firm in their purpose to continue on the land of their fathers. It may be a matter of interest to our friends and foes to know the state of feeling in other parts of the nation, and whether there has been any discernible change in that feeling since the passage of the Indian bill. We cannot as yet speak definitely. We apprehend, however, that the Cherokees will continue to be pretty stubborn. Those with whom we have conversed, and from whom we have heard, are determined to stay and see whether there is not a remedy in the judiciary of the United States. When that is ascertained, it will be time enough, they say, to come to some other determination. Those therefore who think that the decision of Congress need only to be made known to the Cherokees and they will go, are under a great mistake. We speak of the great body of the nation.
