WlamfSm Sf ftonMcraqr The Mlgii Language of the American In dians. The English journal’* praise Mr. J. G. Kohl’s new book of American travel, Kilehi Garni; or Wanderings Round Lake Superior.— Headers who have not already perused Mr. Kohl’s sgroeable pages, will be interested in his description of the sign languages now in common use among the aborignees of America: When speaking, for instance, of tbe Great Spirit, they usually direct a reverential or tim id glance upwards, or point tbe forefinger perpendicularly but gently to tbe sky. When alluding to the sun, or to the time, which is much the same thing, as the sun ia their clock, and indicating the spot at which the sun stood when the event to which they are alluding occored, they pyint fixedly to that point, and hold their arm in that posi tion for several moments. When speaking of a day, they pass the fin ger slowly along tbe entire vault of heaven, commencing at (he east and terminating in tbe west. This is tbe sign of one day. If a shot has to be mentioned in tne story, they usually strike the palm of the left hand with tbe back of tbe right hand, so as to pro duce a slight sound. If describing a journey ou horse back, the two first fingers of the right are placed astride of (be forefinger of tbe left hand, and both represent tbe galloping movements of a horse. if it is a foot journey, they wave the two fingers several times through tho air. In counting, the ten fingers are naturally used, and (he number is not only held up, but mentioned. In this manner and by many hundred simi lar gestures, they supplement and support their oral remarks. And it will he seen, from their gestures I have described, Ibat the tongue can be frequently allowed a rest, aud tbe meaning perfectly conveyed by signs. Suppose an Indian wished to tell another he had ridden three days over the praire, he first points to his own worthy person; that indicates “ I.” Then be sets bis fingers gal loping as 1 have described. This perfects the idea: “ I have traveled on horseback. M — Next he passes his hand once athwart the sky, which furnishes the notion of a "day;” and finally holds up three fingers before his friend’s eyes, to show be spent " three” daye. It is a curious fact, though Indian dialects differ so greatly, this language of sign* is the same for enormous distances. All travelers who had crossed the prairies told me that there was but one sign language, which all the Indians comprebeud, and any ooe who had learned it oould travel with it from one end of America to the other. For such sigus as those of which I have given specimens, such as the sun, a day, a number, a horsemen, &c., when nothing bet ter or more natural could be choeeo, this is sasily to be understood. But the sign language developed itself to a fuller extent, and undertook a visible representation of ab stract ideas. Hence must naturally becotnt conventional. Thus, for instance, if desirous to express the idea of "beauty,” this could not be imitated like the exploeiou of a gun.— Still, some sign to express the idea could be agreed on. Most curiously, the Indian races were unanimous in accepting the tame sign. When they wish to explain that they snw "a beautiful” woman, they pass (be flat band gently and slowly through a lhe air as if imi tating the wave line. Even the sex is describ ed unanimously. Whin speaking of a woman, the Indians pass tbe palm once down tbe face and the whole body, as if wishing to indicata the long waving dresses or the graceful con tour of the female body. This smoothing of tbe face universally means "a member of the fair sex.” A copioue grammar of thia langauge of signs could be written. How rich it would be may be drawn from ibe fact that Indians of two different tribes, who do not understand a word of each other’s spoken language, will sit for half a day on one spot, talking and chat tering, and telling each other all sorts of eto- riea, with movements of their fingers, heads and feet. A hollow hand, with tbe motion of drawing water, signifies water. When tne finger tra ces serpentine lines on the ground, it ie n riv er. A band moved up and down in the nir signifies a mountian. Tbe several beasts have naturally their spe cial signs. Usually cnly some characteristic portion of the animal is imitated—for instance, the horns. The horns of the Buffalo differ from these of the elk, and tkus the entire an imal ie indicated. The idea of a large number, or many, is in dicated by clutohing at tbe air several times with the hands. Tbe morion greatly resem bles that of a daneeuse playing tbe^easten- aettes. Little, or nothing, is signified by passing one hand over the other. Very curious, but quite universal, is tbe sign for admiration among the American In dians. They hold the boiiow hand for some time before the mouth. This it, however, I suspect, a species of quidproquo, and the real sign—namely, the mouth open iu amazement —ii ooncealed behind it. They carry the hand to the mouth, and conceal the face be hind it, because it is improper to display emo tion or admiration. THOMAS & ABBOTT, ATTORNEYS AT LAW, Atlanta, Georgia.
