SACRED INDIAN RELICS.

Pickett, in his history of Alabama, gives an interesting account of some curious brass plates" owned by the Tookabatche Indians when the whites first came among them. These plates were carefully pre- served and were never shown except at the annual green corn dance, when they were carried in a solemn procession bv the prophets and head men of the tribe General Woodward dismisses the subiect lightly by saying that they were copper plates which had been used by the Spaniards of De Sotos expedition to pro- tect themselves from the arrows of the Indians.
 Coloned Pickett did not agre with Wood ward, for he tells us that in 1759 a British trader named Balsaver inquired of the oldest chief as to their origin, but could get nothing definite. The Indians had a traditional account of some mysterious gift from the Great Spirit. However that may be, they were regarded by the savages as the most sacred objects in their possession, and when the Tokabat- ches went West in 1886 the plates were carried by six of the most reliable men of the tribe, each of whom carried one of the relics, carefully wrapped up, and these warriors carried no other baggage of any kind.
 We have been reminded of these old

 Referring to a recent item seopied from The Ashland Standard about the change of sentiment among Alabama newspapers regarding Mir. Cleveland The Pensacola News says:
 The same can be said of the newspapers of Florida The change of sentiment toward the greatest living private citi- zen in the world" has been the most re- markable phenomenon that has ever taken place in the whirligig of politics in this country.
 As far as we have kept up with them this change is not confined to the news papers of the South, for 1t is almost general. Many of them declare for him uneQuivocally. and practically the only argument against his nomination is based on the third term fallacy. The change of sentiment can only be called a revolu- kion.

traditions and controversies by reading In the last issue of The Indian Journal a communication from Charles Gibson, a Creek Indian who writes well and enter. taingiy on all questions connected with his people. He gives some Interesting information regarding these rlates. which he says are as safely guarded and as sacredly preserved now as they were in their former home in Alabama, and he gives the following as the history of the plates:
 One old medicine man who had been noted for being the greatest among the Creeks, before dying, told some of the other medicine men that so many days after the day of his death, if they would meet him on the highest mountain peak naming the mountain-he would bring them something very sacred, and 1t would strengthen their medicine and add to their happiness. The medicine men then ap- last stick was thrown away each wended his way to the top of the mountain. They waited long and well. When the sun be- came low in the west a great snake came from the west and darkened the country around about the mountain; the medicine men were badly frightened, but stood their ground. Then came claps of thun- der and flashes of lightning that almost blinded the old men, then a dark cloud appeared. and all at once there appeared out of the dark cloud bundle which was handed to the old men; the hands holding the bundle was all that could be scen and resembied tho hands of the old med icine man, who had died.
 As soon as the package was delivered the cloud moved away and there was a clear sky. The old men took their charge back to their square house and hid 1t until fha ftx,a4 Nf AAtr green corn dance, when they were intro duced into their festivities. That was some 1000 years ago, and they are stiI in possession of this town of the Creeks.
 This, like other legendary stories of the Indians is notable or interesting only as showing their belief in the Irythic and sacred origin ascribed 10 the relics. MT. Gibson says some of these plates have characters of some kind engraved on them, and in this he agrees With the pictures and descriptions given of them by Colonel Pickett, whose illustrations show Roman letters and other figures stamped on them. Leaving out the ques- ton of their supernatural origin it would be interesting to learn where they really came from. It may be true that they were taken from DeSoto. as Woodward. Dubois and others familiar with the In dians contended. but there is another pos sible solution which we have not seen re- ferred to. and that is that they may have come from some remote visitors long before DeSotos day. There are tradi- tions as well as pretty we'll authenticated accounts showing that America was visited by Europeans centuries before De- Soto came. and it may be that the relics so jealously guarded are really as old as Gibson's tradition makes them, and still not be of divine origin.
