7-Vow the (iiJer.ian. OUU INDIAN AFFAIRS. iVr. ElUor Much has ben sai.l and written relative to our Indian affiirv, and In thos ton, who arc perhaps better able to do th'J su'MCCt justice than one who is little in the habit of writing on this or any other important matter; but belie ving the present a vaitable occasion, and one which we should i.ot fail tosci". with a view to commencing an eotireh 01 Ik rent course towards our In -V. 1 neighbors, I have ventured to give yni I. .a vjuk of my own crude ideas m matins to it. The Sacs have been pretty well whipped .and humbled, or pretend to be so. '1 heir principal leaders, with Black Hawk at t heir bead, ate now our prisoners in irons. The young warriors of other tribes, whose thirst iir military powers, absorbing every other consideration, could n longer be controlled after the first successful war whoop; and who, like the Roman knights of yore, "gathered their followers and rushed to the battle hel l," have now seen, that the medicine of the V.).:rf, no more than the prayers of bis II-i!ine.s could bear them harmless through the fight, or insure them victory. In speaking and writing on this subject, dz of the causes which produced the recent hostilities of the S ics and Foxes, those who reside in the interior, far removed from the tatatre of the war and who, consequently. c n know but little of the merits of the question, are loo much in the habit of suitering their feelings to be enlisted in favor of the Indians. Thee distant admirers and eulogists of Ill.iefc ilavfk;. atmtsr to be so much enamonrcd with his warlike exploits upon our . a a defenders frontier, that thev seem to have ! forirottop, or thev disbelieve, the accounts set! distress and misery which have been entailed upon their own countrymen: the hardy pioneers of the west. They represent the whites as having been the aggressors and original cause of the war; ar.d decribe the Iadiar.s as a. poor, ignorant, peace-loving, oppressed race of beings:--nt subjects for our pity, and deserving our paternal care; whereas nothing can be further from the truth even the Hawk himself would disvejice Philm. Povvhattan." and ri-cumseh. l-.e ir you that? and by whom asserted? Why, the guardians of thoe very pale f icesairainst whom you waged perpetual and extern. -.a ting war to the last moment ef your existence. . lias the present generation of Ncw-F.ng-land and Virginia s soon forgotten the hts-to-v ef their sar.guinary atul merciless Intiia'n war? Those horrid tales of blood have often caused ;:;7 young heart to quake with fear, as 1 listened on a long winter's evening, to the "Indian storks" of my grandmother. Tne Indians have not altered; tNey arc the s uite now as then their character has alwavs been the same, frtm the binding of Core2 ar.d Pizarro, to t'.ir capture of Black I law!;. War is their clement, their ail-ab-i:rhi:rj-passion, and their only or principal jiath to distinction. The whole time ef their existence, from the moxent they are able to throw an arrow, or handle a spear, up to the triumphant yell of their death song, is t'evoted to it. Indeed thev are taught httle U e:cet)t it is to follow, through the great Vwvitern dtsert. the beasts el chase. Like the wild Ari,!, they are predatory ia their habit; and hke him also, are they proud, warlike and revengeful; and possessing as tluy do, fiet horses; a perfect knowledge of "the c untry; of which they n )tft l to take aJvar.t.gt. together with facultv to endure the severest privations t.uager v.ibalstit.g, senietimes for weeks rnc ur i;jd as it i by their opu ltis ana naLits.thty are ever re.uiv to s. .-e sn:ne- jnrtext to interrupt the peace nf the troutier; trusting tin tiual istue to their own sagacttv ;,!id cunning, as well is to the credulity and 1 irbeat am.
