The following novel recommendation, IA
made. A penal settlement for the conf q

aud troublesome inaividua!s among the
various Indian tribes is a pressing want for
murderers and the worst class Of refractory
Indians. One settlement should be in
Florida, which is far enough from the In.
dian reservations to make any attempt at
escape hopeless. Another settlement
should be at some point in the northwest.
where considerable land can be found, up
on which the %imprlsoned Indians may be
taught to work fer their own support. The

torce to exercise perfect discipline, and
trades. as we'll as agriculture, should be
taught. and when the time arrived for them
TO be returned home the captives would
nave reached an advanced stage Of clviliza.
