To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Its consequences (both to the Indians and whites, to the mutual advantage and well-being of all), if its provisions are carried out, make us ardently hope that the Senate will weigh the matter well before they fail to ratify it. Indeed, we can hardly believe they have any intention of doing otherwise than to confirm it, from the evidence we have. Almost any one can trace out many advantages re- sulting from it. To say nothing of the immense tract of fertile country that it will throw open to ci...vilization (its value in this light cannot be estimated), it will have the effect to place the Indians in a state of dependence on this Government, which will not only enable us to pre- serve peace between us and them, but in time of war they may even serve as our protection against other Indians. For instance, the Chip- peways, a powerful tribe, are known to be more or less under British influ- ence, and, in case of war between the United States and England, would be likely to espouse the cause of the latter.
