PROVIDENCE FRANKLIN SOCIETY.

At the opening meeting of the Frank
lin Society free lectures at their rooms,
b4 North Main street, last evening, a paper
was read by Mr.. William b. w. Hallett on
she life OF the American Indians as illus
trated by thoir implements.
Particular attention was first called
TO the fact that white men were
able TO traverse unmolested the
whole continent now known as
the United States when thew first
settled here. The natives were ahospit-
able, and practically speaking a peaceable
people. They were wronged in various
ways by the settlers and many were
siezed and sold as slaves. Mainly Mr.
Halletts remarks were confined TO their
domestic life as illustrated by their
implements, OF which large COL
lection was shown, many OF them
having been found by him or collected i'm
our own State. Various evidences of their
great intelligence were given and sym-
patby was expressed for them as a long
suffering people.
