A strange Tradition

K
Among the Seminole Indians there
| Is strange tradition regarding the
| white mans origin and superiority
They say that when the Great Spirit
made the earth he also made three
/ men, all Of whom were fair complex
ioned, and that after making them he
led them to the margin Of a small lake
4 and bade them leap in and wash, One
obeyed and came out purer and fairei
than before; the second hesitated 4
moment, during which time the wat
er agitatcd by tho first had become
| muddled, and when he bathed, he
came up copper-eolored; and the third
did not leap until the water became
black with mud, and be came out dark
color. Then the Great Spirit laid be-
| fore tllom three packages, and out Of
pity for his misfortune IN color, gave
| the black man first choice, He took
hold Of each Of the packages, and hay
ling felt the weight, chose the heaviest;
| the coppertcoored man chose the next
heaviest; leaving the white man the
llightest. When the packages were
opened, the first was found to contain
spades, hoes and all the implements Of
labor; the second unwrappod hunting,
| fishing and warlike apparatus; the
third gave the white man pens, ink,
paper the engine Of the mind, the
means Of mutual mental improvement,
the foundation of the white mans sVlz
pcriority.

Its correspondence covers everything desir-
able to our farmers, and is beautifully illus
