The Illinois free trader. (Ottawa, Ill.) 1840-1841, 1840-09-11
From the Quarterly Review.
The Indians,

In the splendid regions of the "far
vest which lie between Missouri and
the Hockey Mountains, there are living
at this moment on the Prairies, various
tribes who, if left TO themselves, would
continue for ages TO live on the buffalo
which cover the plains: The skins Of
these animals, however, have become
valuable 10 the whites and accordingly,
this beautiful verdant country, and these
brave and independent people have been
invaded by white traders, who, by paying
them pint of whiskey for each skin Tor
"robc," as they are termed in America,)
which sell at New York for ten or twelve
dollars, induce them TO slaughter these
animals in immense number, leaving their
flesh. the food Of the Indian, to rot and
purify on the ground. No ambition or
caution can arrest for a moment the pro-
pelling power o!the whiskey; accordingly,
in all directions these poor thoughtless
beings are seen furiously riding under its
influence in pursuit Of their game, or in
other words, in The fatal exchange Of food
for poison. IT has been very allentively
calculated by the traders, who manage to
collect per annum, from 10000 to
100000 buffalo skins, that at the rate at
which these animals are now disposed of,
in ten years, they will be killed of.
Whenever that event happens. Mr. Catlin
very justly prophesies that $50, GOO In
dams. now living in plain Of nearly
three thousand miles in extent, must die
observation and become prey to wolves,
or that they must either attack the pew.
erful ncighboring tribes CT the Rocky
Mountains, or in utter rhrehzy of despair
rush rron tie white population in the
forlorn hope of dislodging it. In the two
latter alternatives there exists no chance
Of success, and We have therefore the
appalling reflection before US, that these
100000 Indians must soon be added 10
the dismal list Ct those who have already
wthered and disappeared, leaving their
county 10 bloom and flourish in the DOS
session of the progeny of another world
The Illinois free trader. (Ottawa, Ill.) 1840-1841, 1840-09-11
Albiuos.

The editor of the United States Gazette, on a
visit to the Cold Springs, near Cape Island New
Jersey thus describes family which he cncoun-
tered in his walks;
Beyond the springs is singular fami-
ly Of black persons, whose name have
forgotten. The mother has borne five
children, two of them resembling in color
livery dark herself and her husband the
other three are Albinos; their features are
those Of the true African race, and closely
resembling these Of their parents; but
their hair, though curling and crispy, is
