pondence in yesterdays paper, was report
the conference between the chiefs Of the Winnie
bagc Indians now in Washington, and the Conn.,
missioners appointed on the part of the United
States, TO treat with them about the cesson OF
the lands at present occupied by the tribe in Iowa,
ana their removal TO some tract of land more re-
mote from the confines of civilization The pro-
position made by the United States Commission
was by no means satisfactory to the red men,
and they consequently asked time to consider it.
They were 10 have given their answer yesterday.
We trust that our government will not deal too
harshly with these poor men. This is, we be-
lieve, the third time they haveremoved from their
lands and holdings at the instance of the Uni.
ted States, and the hardship of so many reno.
walls is sufficiently annoying, without the bargain
being at the same time too exacting. There will
be nothing lost by treating them literally; and it
is beneath the dignity of our government to
drive too bard bargain with men who cannot
help themselves, and who must accede to our
terms, whether such terms be agreeable to them
or not.
We are convinced that the Indians have been
hardly dealt with, in their various treaties with
successive administrations. They are obliged to
remove from place to place whenever il is the
will and pleasure of the United States so to order
them; and they have been in general most
wretchedly compensated for the losses they sus-
tanned by our encroachments. When the red
man will have melted away from the face of the
earth, we will have reason to repent that our po-
icy towards him has not been more lenient.
We trust that in the present instance our Co.
vernment will pursue more liberal policy to-
wards the Indians than has been the wont with
preceding Administrations.
