ORIGIN OF THE INDIANs--The long
contested question about the origin of
the American Indians is now, after years
of hypothesis, about to be solved. They
are neither Tartars, Japanese, lost tri-
bes of Israelites, or the descendants OF
Welsh emigrants. but Swiss. For this
valuable discovery the world is indebt-
ed to Private Andreas Eisinger, of the
Swiss Canton of Graubunden, late of
the United States army. In the year
1874 Mr.. Eisinger was one of a party Of
United States troops which captured
band of Cheyenne Indians. To the
great surprise of Eisinger, he found that
their language was indenticai with his
own, and that he could understand Che
yenne. Having subsequently received
the appointment of interpreter, he found
that the Arapahoes and the Comanches
spoke the same soft Graubundenian
tongue. He therefore believes that he
has demonstrated that the Indians of
the Southwest are neither more nor less
than wandering children of the Swiss
Republic.
