When Columbun. in 14112, ? 1 1 > v - orcd Aroorica, lie found a race of rod men inhabiting tlio land. Tho\ wero luiniorH and flahera and lived in wigwams. They wero very lleree and always had their faces painted. They from tho first wore alraul of tho white man and wore very wiper t. Htitioua. They wero from whom I ho } Indian corn and tobacco wore ton. The find- experience 1'ntrliwh 1 *nen had with tliom waa John Smith who traded with them getting fine furq and Indian corn for the aid Mora and paying them with jowols and ? ? r namonts which were their peculiar ^UaracteriBtic; they would give any thing for JewelH. They flbon becanio accustomed to the white man and became morn in timate and hooii began to form leagues with him. Homo liked the KngliRh, some the French, and aomo tlio Spaniards; and thus tho frequent wars which wero fought over thi* new land weto participated in by tho Indians who wore very treacherous and fought In thin way ? peculiar t<> their race ? behind trees and from ambush. Thus they played an im portant part iw i hum. Tho Indiana of tho eastern part of America, or on the Atlantic count, are very different, from LIiohc of the western part, or on the I'acillc, in wavh and manners too. The origin of tho Indian in mi known, but it is wupposcd that tliev arc otio of tho Joat tribes of Israel. TLflfr have been ateadily oxtermina ; t.e?r and driven hapk' by (iio while j man until now they are few in num j Iter and nmall in poaHoaaion. 1'itiahle ! is the rod man's cry against the! white man! lie lia? been robbod of Ilia homo, his hunting ground, anil . everything, and lias not been paid aj cent. Once he owned a whole eon- ] tinent, but now lie only Tint* pcrmix- j eion to stay in one Hinall territory, and is held in and guarded on every ! ?ide.

THE AMERICAN INDIAN. This is a suhjoct that many men i Lave apent thoir liics in invotdigat- j ing and writing about. It is of ape* ! cial Interost to tho poople of Amer- 1 ic?. m they were the aborigines of tbia country. The American Indian has aomo I wonderful characteristics about him. He it very cruel and unmerciful, and i? ahy and cunning; but the ehiof characteristic is his endurance Qfpaip- He can endnro great pain yr^:Wfltoo?l flinching. When America wae discovered, he ?M In a moat savage condition. He bad no written language, lawa, gehegte asd wlsaces. He had no ? limjWilM of God and the hereafter ~~M? ltr?a by hunting nod fishing and to wlfWMDi.
