IN with the Indians is one which sSares
he settlers OF the new lands in the face.
n some of the counties 800 or more Indi-
rs are located, and they are there TO stay.
hey cannot lie removed or driven away,
hey have no place to so, and their rights
re just as sacred as those Of the whites.
rue, the banketed Indian is not the Z
lost desirable neighbor; but the whites
new before they settled in the new coun-
~ that he was there, and the abuse to
Thich some of the red men are being
objected by the whites is calculated to
lake them even more disagreeable, if not
bsolutely dangerous. Settlers should
ear in mind that the allotted Indians are
ntering into a new phase OF life, and not
xpect them 10 conform Immediately 70
he ways of the white man. An Indian is
ow to forget an injury. but he seldom
,rgets the kindness shown him. The
heyeunes and Arapaboes should be given
very right TO which they are entitled.
nd, when they once become satisfied that
heir white neighbors DO not desire 10
axe advantage Of them, they will become
luch more panionable: but don't ex
ect too much OF them a. the start. and
&c every sxertion to dispel from their
inds the idea that the whites have come
ally 10 Cypress and abuse them. .
