1HE CHocTAw sTATE-Some time AGO
says The PennsyEran5aa, we indicted an ar.
ticIewhich wenttbe rounds of the newspapers
in relation TO a new State, TO be composed
of Indians. Il mas called forth the annexed
capital article from the Racine (Wisconsin)
Advocate;
We have already me ntioned that PrrcH.
LYNN, a Choctaw Chef, has been elected bv
that nation as fheirrepresentative at Wash.
angton not an Congress. as some papers have
thoughtlessly stated. All aoeounts conrur
Ia awarding to him the character of an intel.
llgent and worthy aitizen, possessing more
than ordinary intellect, with a COMMANDING
influence among his people. 1t would be a
magnanimous set on the part of Congress to
admit the Choe4aw nation, contajping somo
eighty thousand inhabitants, into our Union,
win the privileges OF an independent State.
and to Introduce Mr.. PitchIyn on the floor
OF Congress as a representative of that no.
Ole aboriginal race of men whom we have
snpplanted.
In Wisconsin a community of aboriginal
i@aaoltants, the "Brothertowns" have been
aenatlonaiized as "Indians" by act of Con-
gress' and fully invested with all the fran.
chIses, privileges and immunities of the most
favored citizens, eligible to the Gubernato-
rial otlcet as well as to ths Executive chair
OF the Union, being "native" born citizens of
the United States. And the Brothertowps
have vindicated their title to citlzensbin
(theirs being extended to Indians) by de-
meaning themselves as peaceful, moral and
community.
1.-The Choctaws are, we presume, The
most advanced of all our aboriginal tribes
IN the arts of civilized life. Their country.
west OF Arkansas, exhibits the most crafty.
ing proofs Of their amelioratirg progress
Cultivated fields, good farms, good dwellings.
churches schools, common, classical and
all these evidences Of advanced
civilization strikes the eye Oh every hand.
