INDIAN MISSION.

For the purpose of ascertaining the
condition of the various Indian tribes
within the limits of the United States.
we understand that the Rev. DR.. Morse,
OF Charlestown, Mass. will, under au-
thority of the National Administration,
in the course of the ensuing spring, un-
dertake journey through the western
parts of the state of New York, visiting
the remnants of tribes in his way, and
will pass up the Lakes to Detroit, and
.Mackinaw, to Lake Superior, from
thence returning, will cross Lake Michi-
gan to Green Bay, and over to the Mis-
.sissippi, and across that river into the
state of Missouri, and return by the way
of Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, and Pennsyl-
vania, tn Meav-Vnrl.
In October he will commence second
journey, east of the Allegany, to Geor-
sia, and into Florida /; then through Ala
bama and the Greek nation, to the states
of Mississippi and Louisiana, to Natchi-
toehez, and the Arkansaw territory, and
return by the way of Natchez, through
Tennessee and Kentucky, to New York.
His instructions from the government
Edwardsville spectator. [volume] (Edwardsville, Ill.) 1819-1826, 1820-05-09

require OF him 70 direct his attention,
among other things, to the actual con-
dition of the Indian tribes that he shall
visit, as 1t respects their moral, religious,
and political character; to ascertain their
numbers the extent and description Of
country which they severally occupy,
their modes of life, customs, laws, and
political institutions; the character and
disposition oftheir most influential men !;
the number, situation and character of
their schools and teachers, their plans
of instruction and education, and the
success that has attended the attempts
already made to educate their youth !;
the feelings Of their chiefs with regard
to the Introduction of education and
civilization among their people; the
state of trade with them, Sc.
Such extensive tours, by SO intelligent
man, will doubtless be the means of
collecting, for the use of the govern
mcnt, very extensive mass of highly
interesting and important information,
respecting the Indians; and we hope
will open the way for the introduction
among them of civilization, and literary,
moral, and religious instruction; to a
much greater extent than has hitherto
been effected. The idea of extirpating
these ancient proprietors of four country,
humbled, reduced, and comparatively
harmless, as they are, by species of
contamination more fatal to them than
pestilence or the sword, must be shock
| ing to every benevolent mind. To tame
their wildness, to soften their ferocity,
and to humanize their savageness, would
afford to such minds the most sincere
qualification. Every good man will APP
probate the attempt that is now making
by the government for these purposes,
and will wish them the most abundant
success. Boston Centinel.
