The late number of the North. Amer aica Review contains an article entitled sas lsss!;-ssas sa!;ssa B::sssaf,hy Il gives view of the character of Tecumseh, and his tory of his exploits. The following is an extract:
 When Geperal Proctor began to pre- pare for retreatlng from Maiden, Tc- cumseh, having learned his intention, demanded all interview, and, in the ~name of all the Indians, delivered an animated speech. If the spirit which 1t maailests could have its intended ef fec. in inducing the General to fight be- fore he retreated, the result must at least have been more glorious, if not more favorable to his cause.
 "Father!n he began, sslisten to your children! You have them now all be- fore you. The war before this, our British Father gave the hatchet to his red children, when our old chiefs were alive. They are now dead. In that war ;s, our Father was thrown on his back by the Americans, and our Father took them by the hand without our know ledge. We are afraid he will do so d. gain this time.
 ssListent When we were fast at the Rapids, it is true, we gave little assist ancc. It is hard to fight people who live like gronud hogs. Aiiuding to the A- .merican fortifcations.l
 aFather, listen! Our fleet has gone out. We know they have fought. We have heard the great guns ;-[ Perry's s victory, ,j--but we know not what has become of our Father with one arm, Com. Barclay.] Our ships have gone one way, and we are astonished to see our Father tying np every thing, and preparing to run away the other, with out letting his red children know of his intentions. You always told us, you would never draw your foot off Bistisl ground. But now, Father, we see you are drawing back, ard VIC arc sorry to see our Father doing so without seeing the enemy. We must compare our Fathers conduct to that of a fat dog, that carries it's tail upon its back; but when frightened, ,sdrops between its legs and runs off.
 Father listen! The Americans have not defeated us by land-we arc not sure they have by water; we wish, there fore, to remain here and fight. If they defeat us, we will then retreat with our Father.
 < Father! You have got thearms and ammunition, which, our great Father Sent for his red children. If you have 1,1 a1soi4,q IF. .lEi Ya. t6ana fa ns,

It is situated between tle two fourishlng settlements of Peconery be- low, and Point Remove above, and most excellent body of land on the opposite side of the river, including Esqr Ellis settle ment, and extending southwest as far as the prosperous settlement of Fonrehe-la- Fayre. Northeast from Lewisburgh, ioro or 10 miles, the country is gently rolling and lnterspersed with few rich praueS, until you reach the rich bottoms ot cane and cypress, and the north fork of Cadron and sources ofPoint Remove; all ofwhich arc EcTy foTtt..ssc and susceptible ot esfeh-s siye settlements.

-''--'' THE OLIO.
FT0nl the CnsHfff. ROBERT EMMETT .

He sa.e like one Of Royal mein. Before his subject lords, As tho his slightest nod had been,
 The proud couImand of words. His was fortitude of mind--
 A nobleness of soul, That prison damps had faiied to bind, Or chains of power control. He rose--was it to plead his life,
 At the oppressor's hand, Or pa!pitate the noble strife,
 That walked that bondaged fands Oh! no, he deeply scorned 1t all,
 His life he would not hold And see his country deeper fall,
 Her fame, her freedom sold He rose--the man of mighty thought,
 Before his judges stood, Nor qnailed his heart so great, and fraught With all that's nobly good. He rose, his country wrongs to tell,
 And show his proud design, And pour his spirits lofty swell,
 Then meet the guilIotinc. There was calmness in his air,
 No power of man could pall-- 'Twas silence, deadly silence, there, Thro' all that crowded hall. "It was his country's cause alone,>
 Had moved to daring tolls, His country s freedom, and this son.
 Her fondest, was her spoil,7 7 eHe asked not-no, he scorned name To float OCT change and death; Twas all he sought, his conntry's fame To deck with free edom's wreath Unwept, unhonored, to the grave,
 unepitaphed to rest, Until his country with the brave,
 Could rank ,silis soie request. The ordeal past--the noble youth,
 upon the scaifold knelt, Branded with crime, but virtue, truth, E'en there were conquei1ng felt. A moment more--the mingled cup
 Prem the oppressor's hand, 5 Was drank, and earthly care and hope Shranx back from that fair land But treasured as lonely thing, To light through every il, Or weaken fancy's weary wing,
 Or honor's prouder thrill; Upon tue cold, moist bosom fresh,
 sss:;;. ss:;;. ..s .s :s: .;ar .;.rs, He held maiden's gift--the last A plaited lock of hair. But she who gave it--where was she? ssInrevel dance, or song'' An. no, in cheerless agony,
 She wept his country's wrong; HAft blighted, desolate, and lone, With broken heart. awhile She pired, then silent hastenea on, To meet her lovers smile! !. E.. l..

A young Persian, visiting Torrance under the patronage of the liberal minded Pacha of Egypt, received some attention from the three daughters of Mrs. B. an English lady. The next morning he called to make proposals.-- IL was thought to be rather precipitate, hatt being asked for which H#t.ies. young lady he wished to propose, he replied all three. He would give a thousand pounds for each, and send them to the Pacha. who was a great admirer of tall women. He was surprised to find the commodity not transferable.

and you may go and welcome for rs.- Oar lives are in the hands of the Great Spirit--wc are determined to defend our lands; and if it be his will, we wish to leave our bones upon them"
 This celebrated speech {says the Re- yiew) is probably as good a specimen as any or record, of the eioqucnce of Te- cumseh. 1t was natural cloqaences characteristic, as all natural eloquence must be, of the qualities of the man.
 The following anecdote IS related of their chief:--
 Itis said, that in the last conference at Vincennes, he found himself, at the end of long and animated speech, un- 1 provided with seat. Observing the neglect, Governor Harrison directed a chair to be placed for him, ard requested l him tosaeeepfi if. aYour Father, 2 said l theinterpreter, .'requests you to take q chair" sMy Father" replied the chief, '.the sun is my father, and the earth is my mother; l willrepose upon Der bosom And he adjusted himself on the ground iu tiae indian manner. The reviewer thus concludes hls aketch:--
 On the whole, the character of Te- eumseh, in whatever light it may De viewed, must be regarded as remarka- ble in the highest degree. That he proved himself worthy of his rank as a general officer in the army of his Bri- tannic Majesty, or even his reputation as great warrler among all the lndi- 1 ans of the North and West,,is, indeed, | q small title to distinction. Bravery is a savage virtue; and the Shawnees are a brave people: too many of the Amerl- ean nation have ascestained this factby experience. His oratory speaks more for his genius. It was the utteranee of 1 a great mind, reused by the strongest motives of which human nature is sus- eeptible, and developing power and a labor of reason, which commanded the admiration of the civilized, as justly as the confidence and pride of the savage.
