To the Committee & Council.

    Mr. Elias Boredinolt, Editer of the Cherokee Phoenix, last fall declined to serve any longer than the end of his year’s engagement, in consequence of no provision having been made by the last General Council to increase his salary or to authorize the appointment of an asistant translater of the Cherokee matter, and tendered his resignation accordingly.  I then offered the appointment to W Daird? Brown, and he refused to accept it, on account of the bad state of his health; and being very much engaged myself in making preparation to accompany the delegation to Washington City, agreably to your resolution; and having no time to look out for, or consult with, other competent persons about taking charge of the editorial department, I endeavored to prevail on W Boudinolt to continue in the service, and he refused todo so, unless I would agree to give him an assistant, or to increase his salary, at the rate of one Hundred Dollars per annum, was to enable him to appoint an assistant himself.  I told him that I had no power to comply with his terms as the law did not authorize it.  Finding ultimately that there were but two alternatives left me in? the urgency of the occasion. either
