ST. IlaxaitlOe, Warren, Fa H fcv.: AN ALMOST EXTINCT TRIBE THIS BBMNA NT OP THX ALABAMA INDIANS IN TBXA8. Always the Stanch Friends of the Whites?Their Wild, Irregular Code of Dueling. ~T EW persons in Texas, and probY=/ ably nobody outside of the State, _J are aware of tbe fact that tbete (, still exists within its borders the remnant of a once powerful tribe of Indians, even in tbo darkest days of the infant Republic the stanch friends of the white race. While the Comanche.*, Kiowa*, Li pans and other wild tribes, who in yean past left a trail of blood on the unprotected frontiers, hare long since been gathered on Qovernmont reservations and compelled to pretermit their depredations, the remnant of A'abnma and Coshutta tribes, numbering nnw nlinilt 2KO unilll nnronn o rvo.oo .... .. W fcWW. J/M10?1V ? ~ | fill existence on the bunks of the Triuity River in I'olk, San Jacinto and Liberty Counties. These Indians arc a branch of the Creek Nation, who early in tho present century withdrew from the contest with the white race as hopeless, nnd sought a home ou the Trinity River, in Texas, then under Spanish ru'e. When immigration again brought Americans arou id them they persisted in their peaceful policy, receiving their former foes with kinducss and hospitnlity, sharing provisions with them, aud doing all in their power to alleviate tho sufferings of settlers iu a new country. In tho war with Mix co tliev adhered to the cause ol Texas, rcmaiuing quietly in their villages, ready to take up arms with the rest of the population in case the Mexican Army should succeed in reach the Trinity. bcvcvnl years ago the State bought a tract of laud ioi the Alabama? and settled them upon it. They have made clearings in the forests, and constructed comfortable log cabins, having good stocks of horse?, hogs and cattle, and raising sufficient crop3 for their support. The crops arc cultivated rather for their own use than for sale. Indian' corn is m? principal one, motign tnnny oi them plant sweet potatoes, and all of them vegetables, and they usually fill their villages with fruit trees. During the reason of cultivation they remain closely at home, working industriously and hunting only nt such leisure times as their crops allow them. The interval between the working and the gathering of the crops is usually spent iu rest and sreial intercourse and occasional hunting parties. But when everything is gathered and housed, an 1 the last ere vies in their granaries closed to exclude light and air, as a guard agairst the depredations ot that South-Tixan coru pest known at the weevil, then comes the return to Indian life and Indian employment. Thoy break up into hunting parties, after the Arab fashion, taking with them their wives nnd childreu, their horses and tents and household utcusils. They seek the forests which settlements have not yet reached, and work their way to the dense cnue brakes on the rivers which the white man has not yet penetrated. They soon fill their camps with game, and alone with themselves and nature, nnd safe from the intrusion of a superior and conquering race, enjoy tlio rsalixitinn of lnfllnn lifn ?to if wnc lmfAM white m;in discovered their couutry. Devoted to the wild and exciting sports of the chase, and reveling in that absolute freedom which is their ruling passion, they 11 nd in these hunting excursions their times of greatest enjoyment. When weary of the chase or satisfied with its result, they return to their villages, their horses loaJe 1 with dried meal and deer skins, to be dressed for market, and bears' oil and hides lor their own use aud for sale. Like all other Indians, they have that fatal passion for drink which sccint destined to result in their extermination. But it is generally kept within reasonable bounds, aud they do uot drink habitually. A constitutional depression of spirits to which they are peculiarly subject, or an overflow of social feeling on the reunion of friends returning from I heir hunting expeditious, usually leads to a beginning. One after another is drawn in, aud the revel sometimes extends over three days aud nights. When it is over they carefully efface all tracos of debauchery, dress themselves handsomely, return to their usual occupations, and for a long time drink nothing intoxicating. They listen with paticnco and good humor to remonstrances on the subject, and a friend can often dissuade them from drinkiug, or induce them to close a revel sooner thnn they otherwise would have douc. They arc fond of dress aud show considerable taste in the selection and adaptation of the colors which best become them. They are fond of ornaments, especially those made of pure silver, but will not wear jewelry of the baser metals. They have a wild, irregular code of dueling of their c.Vii, and are always ready to throw life away on a point of h?nor. They do it with a coolness and indifference which would excite the envy of a white follower of the code. In fact they do not seem to feel that instinctive dread of death which character Z03 tho white man. They speak of it with as much indifference as any other futuro event, and meet it apparently without fear or reluctance. The Indians all speak English, and in addition converse in three different languages, all evidently dialects of the Creek, and most of thein understand the servile Choctaw, which was once the general lauguagc among the different tribe* and their usual means of communication with the whites. They are fond of festivals, ball play, dances and social assemblages of every kind, all of which are conducted with the best of good feeling and seem to be sources of unalloyed enjoyment. When their own crops are worked to a point of safety they are always willing to help their white neighbors. At plantations where they are well treated, and where they find it agreeable to stay, they work for low wages. During the cotton-picking season they really rendei Important aid. This is thoir favorite work.

Tliey pick very neatly and carefully, attend strictly to the instructions of their employers, and in this, ns in all their relations with the whites who treat them kindly, they are uuifonnly desirous to please. Many of them have professed Chris tianlty, aud religious services are held among them by the Hov. Thomas Ward White, a minister of the Baptist Church, who has taken groat interest in them. It Is, however, only a question of a few years when this last remnant of the oucepowerful Alabama?, who gave the name to a State, will have disappeared from the earth.
