A BEAUTIFUL SPEECH.


The Natchez Free Trader contains a
report of a speech Of Col. Cobb, the cee.
brated half bred chief Of the Choctaws,
made in reply to J. j. McRae, ESQ.,, the a.
G mt for enrolling aud emigratlng the lndi.
ans to the west OF The Mississippi, who had
made sp ech to the indians, about one
thousand IN number, assembled at Hupah-
ka, informing them that 'fheir council
fires could no more be kindled here" that
"their warriors can have no field for their
glory, and that their spirits will decay
within them,' and that if they should
'take the hand of their great father, the
President, which is now offered TO them,
to lead them to their western homes, then
will their hopes be higher, their destnies
brighter"
The Natchez Courier appropriately
saws OF this bit OF eloquence, that for
omprehensveness and brevity for beau.
ty of dction, and force; for affecting
sublmity and propriety of sentiment, We
have never seen any production to excel
it. We publish itas composition worthy

Brother--We have heard you talk as
from the lips of our father, the Great
White Chief at Washington, and my PEG.
pie have called upon me to speak to you.
The red man has no books and when he
wishes to make known his views, like his
father before him, he speaks from his
mouth. He is afraid Of 'eriting. When
he speaks, he knows what he says; the
Great Spirit hears him. Writing is the
invention of the pale face; il gives birth
to errors and to feuds. The Great Sp ri
talks-we hear him in the thunder-ln the
rushing winds and the mighty waters--bu'
he never writes.
Brother: When you were young we
were strong; we fought by your side
but our arms are now broken. You hav,

When forest glades are teeming with brief forms,
Nor dark and many folded clouds foretell

Though stricken to the besrt with winters cold,
The dropping tree reyiyes.

And wide III upland slows.

In the blue lake, the sky. o'erreschins far,

And he fair trees look over, side by eide,
And see themselves below.
