A FRIEND.
dould i the utystic bleak of Fate
That rein the future see,
And in this changing wayward
Read much of ivtie for met
I would nut sigh' fur bliss illsnied,
Bet in submission hexed,
And ask no other gift lit.side;
A ju.st.---4 ttithful friend.

One who suspecting not deceit,
Is.knovn nut to deceive,
Whose words and actions ever meet,
And teach Men to helirve :
Prosperity is found
A 'warning hand t'extend,
Or Miner by a:fiction bound,
(:in prove a constant friend.

One who in woe or danger's hoar,
My tott'ring stein would guide,
Ainl %vim:is no hopee of gain or pow'r,
Wnnlii bribe to quit thy side :
Who; Or in sickness, or in health,
Would tci my wants attend,
And, or in poverty or wealth,
I still could calla friend

One, who Ihro' Lifes mosqubliC scenes,
A careful gnarl would he, .
Or steal trAitudy groves and greenn`
And quit the world with nte:
Who to my fai'ings never blind,
Would teach Ate to amend,
Anti prove by admonition kind,
A true—an holiest friend.

With mind serene, which hlythc and gay
The lonely hour would cheer,
Or to my sorrows kindly pay
The tribute of a uar.
Who tho' the %Todd condemn, can yet.
With all its wrath contend,
Can gently tooth,/ each vain regret,
And prove himself a friend.

Prie.who with heart which knows to feet,
'Vet not by wo o'oroome.
Would follow with a pious zeal
My ashes to thO tooth. - • • ' - •
To memory heave a last. found sigh, •
And o'er so cold Kfieite 40iti e .
And wlo•n dissolvid each cartlily . •

THE CREEK INDIANS.

Some of the last American Papers coolly specti-
late.opon the necessity of a total extinguishment
of the Creek. Indians, in order to render them no,
longer troublesome to the Americans ! That in-
deed is one way. " Dead men tell no talea."—;
It is said that they oppose the establishment of
the boundary line. It trenches npnn their native
soil they allege. ,Between the Western frontiers
of Georgia and South Carolina and.the Banks of
the M7ssisiplsi, there is -a large tract
,of coin),
try inhabited by tt ibes of lndian4". One: of
these is the tribe of Creek. Indians, which tin-
happily for themselves, is• the nearest in point of
contact to the Americans of the State of Tenes4ee.
It scents to he the ,policy of America to stretch
her already overgrown territories trite to the
Mississippi-7a policy which cannot he complete-
ly executed without the termival of thOse In-
dians that still inhabit• the country an the East
of the 11ississippi. Where will you stop ?"
said a Creek warrior—;" Yow have- made us
'remove from the lands of our forefathers, which
were on the bank, of the great waters (the
se:t)-,--our feet had but just ceased being tseary
with fatigue, and our heads had just laid down to,
*at nu our new lands, when von still further en-
croached upon us—and now you big us begin our
.
journey again. But some of our chietl are worn
down with age, and our mothers are old,, and'
want rest, and we would have a settled home.—
Better would it be to put an end to all of us, so.
.that .ttnr blood should no longer run it) the veins
, of any living creature." This affecting lament, this
counsel of despair, given by the Indian IVarrior,
Coolly recompienfled in an article in one of those
American Papers There appears to be a per
versenefs in that tribe that mi.nat sooner or later
ter»:inate in the total extinguishment of it, and as.
the recrut clemency of our troops seems to have
been misunderstood, it is prohable such measures
will be •taken as, will remove all cause for future
drafts of the militia fur the purpose of preserving
peace oih that frontier.'!:.
