Responds to a part of a speech given by Lumpkin, a Georgia congressman, dealing with Indian tribes east of the Mississippi. Contends that Indians "can only be perpetuated as tribes, or nations, by concentrating them west of the Mississippi upon lands secured to them, forever, by the United States, where its...liberal protecting care, can be extended to them." He is happy Lumpkin is on a congressional committee considering the topic. Includes small undated collateral print.
