At Fort Wayne the Expedition arrived on the 20th of May, and remained at this post three days. This village is maintained by the fur trade, and will probably flourish, or rather continue to exist, as long as Indians remain in the vicinity. It is one of many similar trading establishments in our northern and northwestern territory, and, judging from Mr Keating's account, may be fairly taken as a sample. himself in a real Babel.

The inhabitants are chiefly of Canada oritains a mixed and apparently very worthless popugin, all more or less imbued with Indian blood. Not being previously aware of the diversity in the character of the inhabitants, the sudden change from an American to a French population, has a surprising, and, to say the least, an unpleasant effect; for the first twenty-four hours, the traveller fancies guages, owing to the diversity of Indian tribes which generally collect near a fort, is not removed by an intercourse with their half-savage interpreters. The business of a town of this kind differs so materially from that carried on in our cities, that it is almost impossible to fancy ourselves still within the same territorial limits; but the disgust which we entertain at the degraded condition in which the white man, the descendant of the European, appears, is perhaps the strongest sensation which we experience; it absorbs all others.

The principal tribe of Indians in this region is that of the Pottawotamies, of whom our author gives rather a minute account. Perhaps no part of it is so interesting as that which relates to their notions and practices with respect to education. They appear to be very attentive to the proper education to be given to children, in order to impart to them those qualities both of the mind and body; which shall enable them to endure fatigue and privation, and to obtain an influence, either in the counsels of the nation, or during their military operations. When questioned on this subject, Metea father began to instruct him, and incessantly, day replied, that while he was yet very young, his after day, and night after night, taught him the traditions, the laws, and ceremonies of his nation. This he did,' said Metea, that I might one day benefit my country with my counsel.' The education of boys generally commences at ten or twelve years of age; they accustom them early to the endurance of cold, by making them bathe every morning in winter. They likewise encourage them to habituate themselves to the privation of food. In this manner, children are observed to acquire, more readily, the qualifications which it is desirable for an Indian to possess. Parents use no compulsory means to reduce their children to obedience, but fact, that it was impossible for a garrison (deep gloom over its brightest features. Cold and with the man of their choice.

It had been supposed, from the relations of various travellers, that the head waters of the streams which feed the great lakes and then pass down the St Lawrence, were very near the sources of the Mississippi and its principal tributaries. This supposition was singularly confirmed by the discoveries, if they may be so called,-of this Expedition. Big Stone Lake is the head of St Peter's river, which falls into the Mississippi. The river having taken a bend to the west, we continued our route in what appeared to have been an old water-course, and, within three miles of the Big Stone Lake, found ourselves on the banks of Lake Travers, which discharges its waters by means of Swan or Sioux river into the Red river of Lake Winnepeek, whose waters, as is well known, flow towards Hudson's Bay. The space between Lakes A very large part of these volumes is occupied with accounts of various Indian tribes; but an article in our last has perhaps said as much about the aborigines of this country as our readers may wish to hear. Little very new or peculiarly intereating is to be found in this work respecting this subject.

While we were reckoning up our party, to know if any had straggled to a distance, we saw two Indians Travers and Big Stone, is but very little elevated running across the prairie; their number increased vantage over us, as, in order to protect our horses above the level of both these lakes; and the water has been known, in times of flood, to rise and cover the intermediate ground, so as to unite the two lakes.

They suppose that two great basins of water can only be separated by great elevations, or that a considerable river can only change its direction where a group of mountains opposes its course; they forget, that frequently, either on account of the nature of the rocks, or on account of the inclination of the strata, the most elevated levels give notan and the other Indians whom we had seen.

As soon as our meal was finished, the fire was extinguished. A few Indians had accompanied us to our camp, but all withdrew after a while except an old worthless man, who was recognized by several of the party, as his character was notorious at Fort St Anthony. This fellow was one of the most impudent of the band, ceaselessly begging for tobacco, whiskey, &c. When he was told that the party had no whiskey with them, and that they had given as much tobacco as they could spare, he observed with the greatest effrontery, what then can you give me? Observing that Mr Keating was drinking out of his canteen, one of these Indians came up to him, and extended his hand, asking for whiskey; being told that it contained water, and not whiskey, he attempted to take the canteen, which was, however, resisted. The party being again safely united, Major Long considering that, if an attack was intended, it would to allow the horses to rest until midnight, when the be made a short time before daylight, determined moon, rising, would make it pleasant and safe to travel. Accordingly at that hour we resumed our line of march. Our preparations for departure were made with the greatest expedition and silence, so as not to be observed by the Indians at a distance, and to avoid disturbing the old man that was sleeping or affecting to sleep under one of our carts; in the latter purpose, however, we failed; the old man awoke, and seeing what we were about, he left us immediately, notwithstanding the attempt made to amuse him with conversation until we should be ready to start; but we could not detain him; we saw him walk over the prairie, and by the light of the moon traced his figure until he approached near to the river, when he disappeared in the woods. This was the last Dacota whom we saw. The plates in these volumes are excellent; they are the best which we recollect to have seen in any American book of travels. And as we think illustrations of this sort add more to the value of the work than they can add to its cost, we hope that Messrs Carey & Lea will be encouraged to pursue the same plan in their future publications, and that other publishers may be induced to follow their example. a drama expressly for the closet, a drama The scene is laid at Rome, in the 633d The first passage which we select for quotation is part of the speech of Gracchus in favour of Vettius.
