[Footnote 16: Relating to the treaty of December 29, 1835, with the Cherokee Indians.] WASHINGTON, _April 27, 1836_. _To the Senate of the United States_: I transmit herewith to the Senate, for their advice and consent as to the ratification of the same, a treaty concluded with the Wyandot Indians for a cession of a portion of their reservation in the State of Ohio. In order to prevent any abuse of the power granted to the chiefs in the fifth article of the treaty, I recommend the adoption of the suggestion contained in the accompanying letter of the Secretary of War; otherwise I shall not feel satisfied in approving that article. ANDREW JACKSON. WASHINGTON, _April 29, 1836_. _To the Senate and House of Representatives_: It affords me pleasure to transmit to Congress a copy of the Catalogue of the Arundel Manuscripts in the British Museum, which has been forwarded to me, as will be perceived from the inclosed letter, on behalf of the trustees of that institution, for the purpose of being placed in the United States library. ANDREW JACKSON. _To the Senate and House of Representatives_: Believing that the act of the 12th July, 1832, does not enable the Executive to carry into effect the recently negotiated additional article to the treaty of limits with Mexico, I transmit to Congress copies of that article, that the necessary legislative provision may be made for its faithful execution on the part of the United States. ANDREW JACKSON. MAY 6, 1836. WASHINGTON, _May 10, 1836_. _To the Senate and House of Representatives_: Information has been received at the Treasury Department that the four installments under our treaty with France have been paid to the agent of the United States. In communicating this satisfactory termination of our controversy with France, I feel assured that both Houses of Congress will unite with me in desiring and believing that the anticipations of a restoration of the ancient cordial relations between the two countries, expressed in my former messages on this subject, will be speedily realized. No proper exertion of mine shall be wanting to efface the remembrance of those misconceptions that have temporarily interrupted the accustomed intercourse between them. ANDREW JACKSON. WASHINGTON, _May 14, 1836_. _To the House of Representatives_: In compliance with a resolution of the House of Representatives of the 10th instant, I transmit reports[17] from the Secretaries of State and War, with the papers accompanying the same. ANDREW JACKSON. [Footnote 17: Relating to affairs with Mexico.] WASHINGTON, _May 14, 1836_. _To the Senate of the United States_: I transmit, for the consideration of the Senate, three treaties concluded with certain bands of Pottawatamie Indians in the State of Indiana. I transmit also a report from the Secretary of War, inclosing the instructions under which these treaties were negotiated.
