WHERE DID 10 COME FROM I
Attempts TO Find thsOrIsIn Of the Amer
lean Indians.
New York Tines

New York Times.l
The origin Of the American Indi-
ans, who are always a theme Of pain
full interest with us, continues to be
variously discussed by anthropologists.
Recently a German writer has put for
ward one theory on the subject, and
an English writer has put forward an
other and directly opposite theory.
The difference of opinion concerning
our aboriginals among authors who
have made a profound study Of races
is at once curious and interesting.
Blumenbach treats them in his CLASH
fcations as a distinct variety of the
human family; but, in the threefold
division Of DR.. Latham, they are
ranked among the Mongolia. Other
writers on race regard them as branch
of the great Monaghan family, which.
at a distant period, found it was from
Asia to this continent, and remained
here for centuries separate from the
rest of mankind, passing, meanwhile,
through divers phases of barbarism
and civilization. Morton, our eminent
ethnologist, and his followers, Mott
and Gliddon, claim for our native red
men an origin as distinct as The fora
and fauna Of this continent. Prichard.
whose iewsa are ditferentfrom Morton
finds reason to believe. on comparing
the American tribes together, that
they must have formed a separate
department of nations from the earli-
est period of the world. The area of
their existence as a distinct and insu-
lated people must probably be dated
back to the time which separated into
nations the inhabitants Of the old
world, and gave to each its individual
ity and primitive Language. Mr..
Robert Brown, the latest authority,
attributes, in his Traces of Mankind,
an Asiatic origin to our a~boriginals.
He says that the western Indians not
only personally resemble their nearest
neighbors, the northeastern Asiaties.
but they resemble them in language
and traditions. The Esquimaux on
the American and the Tchuktchis on
the Asiatic side understand one n
other perfectly. Modern %anthropo-
logists, indeed, are disposed to think
that japan, the Kuriles, and neigh
boring regions, may be regarded as
the original home of the greater part
of the native American race. 1t is
also admitted BY them that between
the tribes scattered from the Arctic
sea to Cape Horn there is more uni
formiy of physical feature than is
seen in any other quarter of the globe.
The weight of evidence and authority
is altogether in favor Of the opinion
that our so-called Indians are a branch
Of the Mogolian family, and all ad.
ditiOnal researches strengthen the
opinion. The tribes Of both North
and South America are unquestion.
ably homogeneous, and, in all likeli.
hood, had their origin in Asia, though
they have been altered and modified
by thousands Of years of total separa.
ton from the parent stock.

the money sent him by charitable
persons. He givesan appalling
picture Of the approaching misery.
He says: "Who can wonder
that discomfort and di~saffection are
rife and ready to speak out in this un-
happy land, when the government
looks on with cruel apathy. If the
truth must be told, l hesitate not to
say that the government is to blame
for the d~isloyalty Of some Of our PEG

not disloyal to the core" He CEN
sures the "callous conduct of the
government, who, while they cannot
spare money to avert the Irish famine.
can waste millions in war of e%quivocal
morality" and contrasts strongly the
conduct of Prussia in dealing with
the famine in Silesia.
