fr. Gales, The articles of intelli
gence I gave you some weeks ago re-
ti nave been so well received by the
public, that l ain led to expect a fur
ther account of that nation would not
now be unacceptable. The interest
which appears to have been exrjted.
bears honorable testimony io the libe-
ral and charitable teehngs 01 our coun-
trvmen- I now send you a notice on
some ot the peculiar manner a. cus
toms of the Cherokees, drawn up a few
months ago by Charles Hicks, a Chief
of the nation, at the request of Mr.
Tloyt, the missionary, and by me co-6
pied, in June lasty from the Mission I
diary. The original was the dictionj
and band-writing of the Chief and was j
recorded nearly in nis own wums.
Charles Hicks js a half-blooded Che
rokee, has a tolerable education, is a
inan of intelligence and piety, and has
Inn filled the office next in rank to
the King. The latter is a full-blooded j
Indian, who has no acquaintance with 1
our language. At a late national coun- J
ci I it was enacted that no order of the j
King should take eflect until approv- i
ed of and concurred in y ns. iijck.s.
This virtually makes him equal to the
King, but in influence and real autho
rity "he is greatly his superior. He is
a staunch friend to the whites, a zeal
ous promoter of the measures now in
progress to educate and civilize his
nation, and at this moment has a son
at a puUic school in Connecticut.
The assured co operation 01 a cniei s
endowed and so influential, should
strengthen the hands and animate the
exertions of those benevolent and libe
ral minded men who are tailoring to
enlighten and humanize an unhappy-,
but very interesting portion of our spe
cies. The Indians w ill become at once
civilized whenever the numbers of the
educated shall be so considerable as
to give respect and confidence to each
other and a fashion to manners. M r
Boudinot, in a late work, has underta
ken to show, that the American Indi

ot Israel. One 01 tHeir cuMoms, u win j
be seen, shows some analogy to those
l!
of the ancient Israelites as recorded
in the Books of t!ie OM Testament.
