Masonic Speech of an Indian.

At Masonic banquet given in Chicago,
H., lately, Ely s.. Parker, chief of the Sioux
Nations, and a practising lawyer of Galena
Ill, delivered speech, which is thus spoken
of in an article published in the Masonic
Journal:
zone speech of the evening, as also an in
cident attendingit, deserves more particular
attention. It was that Of Brother Sir Knight
Parker, grandson of Red Jacket and bis sue
cessor as chief, but highly educated, and an
eloquent speaker. I shall not attempt even
an outline ofhis speech; for if reproduced,
it should be with its charms of action and
utterance, which very few white men could
equal. He spoke Of himself as almost lone
remnant of what was once noble race, Of
his struggles in coming forward to manhood,
and seeing his race disappearing as the dew
before the morning sun. As he found his
race thus waning away, he asked himself,
Where shall go when the last of my race
shall have gone forever Where shall /
find home and sympathy when our last
council-6Ie is extinguished |"
Il said will knock at the door of Masonry,
and see if the white race will recognize me,
as they had my ancestors, when we were
strong and the white men weak. I knocked
at the door of the Blue Lodge, and found
brotherhood around its altar. knelt before
the great light in the chapter, and found
| companionship beneath the royal arch
entered the encampment and found valiant
sir knights willing to shield me here, with
out regard to race or nation. went furth-
er. knelt at the cross of my Saviour, and
found Christian brotherhood, the c-owning
charity of the Masonic tie am most happy
to meet you in the grand councils of the
gathering. and sit with you at this festive
board to share these greetings and hospitali-
| ties. feel assured that when my glass is
run out and l shall follow the footsteps Of
my departed race, Masonic sympathies will
cluster around my coffin, and drop in my
lonely grave the evergreen acacia, sweet EN-
blem Of Better meeting. Ifmy race shall
disappear from the continent, have the con-
soling hope that our memory will not perish
If the deeds of my ancestors shall not live in
story, their memories remain in the names o.
your lakes and rivers, your towns and cities
and will call up memories otherwise forgot

For the Spirit of the Age.
Agricultural Pursuits.

An able writer on biography, remarks
that all great and good minds seem to delight
in agricultural pursuits. Weare inclined to
admit the truth of such an observation but
perhaps it is a difficult task to advance a
very satisfactory or philosophical expana-
ton Of the ca1se. The objects of the exter-
nal world that surround US in the retirement
Of farm, exerts, no doubt happy infiu-
enee over all our thoughts, thus conducting
in no little degree to serious reflections. Th
blooming flowers the music of the birds
the myriads of insects sporting in the air,
amid the golden rays of the sun-are we'll
calculated to extract sentiment of piety,"
even from the unregenerate soul, and to ex-
cite in the christian the most holy emotion.
In proof of this position, we may quote the
authority of the most sacred writer's, and
even our Savior himself In that part of the
admirable Sermon on the Mount, where the
disciples are warned against covetousness, he
exclaims, 'sBehold the lilies of the field !;
they toll not, neither do they spin; yet Sol
omon in all his glory was not arrsyed like
one Of these" Every star that gli.ters in
the unmeasured immensity of space, detach-
es as from the world, and in the splendid
diction of Chalmers, flights us in lofty ah-
stractions above this little theatre of human
passions and human anxieties" When the
pious Psalmist, in the fullness of his heart
cries out, "What is man that thou art mind
full Of him, or the son of man that thou should
st deign to visit him ~ he was gazing with
the rapture of christian, and the ardour of q
devoted lover of natures works upon beau
tiful moon-lit night The silvery orbs that
deck the vast concave of haven were sending
their soft cheering rays to earth, presenting
a scene admirably adapted to induce train
of moral reflection.
4 That Agriculture is an occupation, the
most suitable of all others, to primal inno-
cence, the most congenial to the taste and
disposition of ancorrupted human nature,
may be predicated from the simple fact, that
it pleased the deity in his providence to 10
cate our first parents in paradise, to till i
! and to keep it. A garden was assigned tc
them as their dwelling. In their own de
lightful Eden, breathing the pure air of heav
en-, enchanted by the novelty of the scenes
around them, with no objects of care or toll t,
weary the body or harass the mind, saving
slight degree ofattention requisite to the dress
ing of fruit trees, which promoted amuse
ment and health, Adam and Eve must hav,
been inconceivably happy.
It is plausible to conjecture, that no poe
or novelist in their loftiest flights at discrip
ton, ever pictured a home so lovely and en-
, chanting, as the one in which were PLACED
our original progenitors. The lovers cot
: tage, amid trailing vines and bowers of choic
est flowers, 'mingling their colors and ricl
: perfumes" amid ripping rills, aud land
