WASHINGTON, _December 12, 1832_.
_To the Senate_:

I transmit herewith, for the consideration and advice of the Senate as
to their ratification, treaties that have been concluded by
commissioners duly appointed on the part of the United States with the
following tribes of Indians, viz: The Chickasaws, the Apalachicola band
in Florida, the Sacs and Foxes, the Winnebagoes, the Potawatamies of
Indiana and Michigan, the Potawatamies of the Wabash and Elkheart, and
the Potawatamies of the Prairie.

I also transmit the report and journals of the commissioners.

WASHINGTON, _December 17, 1832_.
_The President of the Senate_:

A convention having been concluded at Naples on the 14th October, 1832,

lay it before the Senate for its constitutional action upon it.

ANDREW JACKSON.

WASHINGTON, _December 17, 1832_.

of the United States "to communicate to the Senate copies of the
commission appointing Samuel Gwin register of the land office at Mount
Salus, in the State of Mississippi, in the recess of the Senate in 1831,
and of the commission appointing the said Gwin to the same office in the
recess of the Senate in 1832, and also a copy of the opinion of the
Attorney-General of the United States in relation to said last-mentioned
commission, and also the opinions, if any, of former Attorneys-General
in similar cases, and copies of the commissions which may have issued in
like cases, if any, under former Administrations," I transmit herewith
the papers called for.

It may be proper to remark of the case of the navy agent, supposed to be
analogous to that of Mr. Gwin, that the commissions are not usually
recorded. The one transmitted, however, is the form generally observed,
varied to suit the circumstances of the case, and omitting or inserting
the words "by and with the advice and consent of the Senate," according
to the time the appointment is made.

ANDREW JACKSON.
