Richmond Enquirer

TUSCALOOSA, (A. T.) July 1..... By a gentleman recently returned from the Tombeckbee we are informed that Gen. Jackson has written to Mushulatubbee, head chief of one of the three grand divisions of the Choctaw nation, through the interpreter, Peachland, requesting them to meet him at a time and place specified (when or where our informant did not learn) to hold a conference on the subject of the sale that part of their nation to the United States. When our informant left there, Mushulatubbee and Peachland were on a tour through the District, to consult the other chiefs and headmen on the subject: and the opinion was almost universal among the whites in the neighborhood, that the District will be ceded to the United States, either by sale or in exchange for lands on the Arkansas—though not immediately.

We learn from another source, that a deputation from the Choctaw nation has visited the country on the Arkansas, with a view to such an exchange, and have made a very favorable report, both of the country and quantity of game. In consequence of which, a great number of the Choctaws have expressed a willingness to exchange with the United States on the same terms as those granted to the Cherokees. The District embraces the Military Crossing on the Tombeckbee, where it has lately been determined the great federal road from Nashville to New Orleans shall cross that river.
