(Signed) ALLEN JONES,’ Wm. R. DAVIE. FRANKFORD, (x ) September 22. lx trail of a letter to the Editor, dated St. Vincennes , loth September, 1802, evening. “The council with the Indians was opened this morning. The chiefs and many of the warriors of the Miami, Sauk, Wea, Pian, Kafhan, Patawatamie, Kicka. poo, Kalkalkias, and Eel-River nations, have come in, accompanied by about five hundred young men, women and children. They are I believe, well disposed, and highly gratified with the attention paid them since their arrival. The views of government towards them are truly mag nanimous. It is ardently wilhed to a meliorate their savage, barbarous state, and place them in the case and enjoyment of civilized life. “The Indians have been grossly im posed upon with regard to the United lutes. In a drunken frantic fit, they view us as old women—in their cooler refledlve moments, as plotting their dc fluid ion. Those fettled on the Wabash and White rivers, have, fmee the eftab hfhmentof a government here, been prin tipally under the influence of the Inten tant of Indian affairs ; but those on the Miffilfiippi, Ouinifconfm and Illenois ri vers, and the lakes, have been, and are Hill completely under the contrcul ofßri tilh agents. That treacherous hypocri tical nation has now’ its engines spreading delulions throughout the weftern country. Uvemoft adtive measures have been taken to fruftrate the assembling of the Indians; persuasions and presents have been diffemi neted with the most vigilant industry, rodfome have been taught to believe they fr ete only invited here to be inhumanly I butchered. The noted M‘Kee, (haved, I fainted &c. &c. has recently had a war Idince with the Indians that live within jour territory, a thing unprecedented in I time of peace. The Indians towards the I Mifliflippi and the lakes, visit him annual- Ify. are loaded back wdrh presents, &c. I J| d call him the bell of men—and 1 will I Venture to predidt, that if the prayers of IM England prevail, the knife and the I tomahawk will ere long evince to us the I Orgies of “ secret service money." I “However, I am in hopes a favorable I tnange will be effected—feveral circum- I Ranees which have occurred within a few I | a Vs» have made very favorable impref- I tons on the minds of the Indians, The I Relations so far, exhibit a pleasing INpeft, and there is no doubt but all I 1 e objefts for which the meeting has I tn called, will be fully obtained."
