The following interesting naralive is from the Columbus Enquirer, anti teaches us a lesson of the power ol truth, justice and right, and the result of wrong, oppression and falsehood. Our Federal Government could learn an important lesson from it and act ac cordingly. Editor Enquirer :—Permit me !o offer you “my personal recollections,” written years ago, of an humble and consistent Christian, Rev. William Mi zell, who has long since passed to the spirit land. He was well know to many persons in the Northern part of lately Russell, now Lee county. I give to you, only as an evidence of exempla ry Christian character, in its influence upon the savage mind-and conduct. In the humble and retired walks of life we often find men of exemplary and consistent character whose memo ry deserves a record of brighter page than many who fill volumes in their personal history. Such a man was William Mizell, late of Russell, now Lee county, Ala. My memory extends back to more than fifty years, and then he was the humble and diffident Chris tian 1 hat he was twelve years ago, when he silently passed away from earth to the good spirit land. His constant work in a long life,was lo labor with his hands for six days in the week, and on the Sabbath day to preach lo his neighbors at some log meeting house in the forest. His re- ligious anti inoffensive character made the white plaintiff offered to prove the account by his oath as he was permit ted by law to do. The young man saw at once the fraud, and stepped up and informed the court that he would de fend the Indian chief, his neighbor,and commenced interrogating the while Christian plaintiff about the account, and done it in such manner as convinc ed every one present, and the court, that it was a fraud. He then told the plaintiff to swear to the account, but warned him it he did, he would prose cute him lbr perjury, and send him to the Penitentiary, lie, (the plaintiff,) refused to swear, arid the case was dis missed. The old chief saw he had a friend, but could not understand the conversation, but when the case was dismissed, bis white friend told him be was clear. This was more than be expected, fur in evciy case before a pony or cow paid the penalty o! a jus tice’s summons. Jn a short time afterwards, and du ring the evening, the old ohiet told his friend be wauled lo see him away off’. To the forest they went, and the old Indian, in broken English, informed him that six of their young men had been sent to the Florida Seminoles ; that they would return in a few days, and that if they said “peace,” it would be peace, but if they said “fight,” then the Indians would kill all the white people iu the new country. He told him to say nothing about it, as he was breaking the law in notifying him, but he was friend lo Indian, Indian would be friend to him, and said he would tell him when the young warriors re turned. This ‘was in the spring of 1S36. About two weeks after this interview one evening about three o’clock, the old chief galloped up to the residence | of his friend and told him,“Go to night.” j At a moments warning, and under this threatening exigency,there was no lime lo save properly ; the wagon was bas- lily fixed up, some few articles of pro visions, and the family sealed, leaving a negro woman, who had been raised among the Indians, to take care of the furniture, house and property. The two families went about ten miles to- A Talk will! Crighain Young. IVhot the Prophet, thinks of the Negro Qiiestiou—The scat/ the T.otter-Day Saints deal with Indians. The editor of the Washington Star, writing from Salt Lake City,under date of July ‘JOlh, says : We had some curiosity to ascertain flow ihe Mormons stood on the negro question, and lhe following was the rc- su It of the inquiries propounded : Correspondent. “Are there negroes in your Territory ?” Brigham. “A few : there are a con siderable number scattered through the Territory.” “Are they here as members of the Mormon Church or as Gentiles ?” Brigham, the Church.” Correspondent. “What is lluyr stat us here in the Territory?” Brigham. “We consider them and treat them as what they are, the sous of Cain.” Correspondent. “Are they admit ted to equal fellowship in your church?” Brigham. “No distinction is made against them as members oflhe church, but they are not eligible to any office, either civil or religious. A good many of them were brought here by South ern brethren when they came trom the States. They are industrious and use ful members of the community.” Correspondent. “How many Indi ans have you in the Territory. Brigham. “1 have no idea. The tribes are migratory. Those within the Territory when we came, have all died out.” Correspondent. “Have you been dis turbed as a people by the Indians ?” Brigham. We have not. The prin cipal difficulty with the Indians grew out of depredations committed by pass ing travellers. The Indians retaliated upon Mormon settlers. If you will wait a moment, I will relate a little in cident, showing our mode of dealing with the Indians. When our band of 143 pioneers came out lo locate a place here for settlement, when we came to the Pawnee country, through which the emigrant travel passed, the Indi- iaw—the gospel—but still followed the Mosaic dispensation. '[’he court after consulting Colonel Jenkins the city Attorney, decided that notwithstanding the facts, the stat ute was general, and intended to em brace every faith and every form of religion.

Mr. Phelps then looked up for the first time lo see who “1” was. The General anticipating his question added : “Tell him the Presi dent called to see him.” Mr. Phelps immediately got upon his legs, threw down the paper, and made a very bellowing, and throwing up a tremen dous dust generally. In fact, from the fury of the animal’s demonstrations, one would teally have taken him for one of the identical breed that butted a locomotive off a bridge. “Take that bull out of the way” shouted Nash, as fie approached. “Proceed with thy elephant” was the reply. “ If you don’t take that bull a- way, he’ll gel hurt,” continued Nash, approaching, while the bull redoubled his belligerent demonstrations. “Don’t trouble thysell about the bull, but pro ceed with thy elephant,” retorted Friend Shavey, rubbing his hands with delight at the prospect of an scrim mage—the old fellow having great con- graceful bow.

His whole life was a long and laborious one, but his eternity ! what is it ? as happy as it will be long. But my object is to write down a singular instance of the influence of his life upon savage feelings. In 1833 ho moved from Houston county, Ga.. to Russell county, Ala., near what is now known as Opelika, hut what was then inhabited by the Creek Indians. Here, having no white persons, or but very few to whom he could preach, be fix ed a pulpit and seats under the shade of some large oaks near bis residence, and invited the Indians to come up ev ery Sabbath and worship, with hitn, the Great Spirit. At first but very few came, and with those he commu nicated through an intelligent negro man, who belonged to the nation, and was a good interpreter. After the ser vices, he distributed among them food which he had prepared on the day pre vious. His simple and kind manner towards them, gained their confidence, and his audience increased until the Indians, for quite a dirtance around, would assemble with him on the Sab bath day to hear his remarkable and simple tale of the plan of salvation.— Whether they believed it or not, it is certain they had great tespect for the man “who talked with the Great Spir it.” In the settlement of the country a great many evil and dissolute white men settled among the Indians, more for the purpose of stealing and pilfer ing than for anything else. As soon as the State ol Alabama extended her laws over the country a fine field was open to them to steal from the Indians b\ T due process of law. A mean white man—and there were many of them—would make up an ac count against an Indian, place it in the hands of a justice of the peace for suit; and on the day of trial would swear lo it in presence of the poor Indian, who could not comprehend the machinery of the law, but whose understanding would be enlightened a day or two afterwards by a constable, who would seize upon the Indian’s pony, or cow or negro, in satisfaction of the judg ment. A son-in-law of the old preach er heard about the state of legal pro ceedings in the district, and concluded on a court day he would go and see how the thing was done. When he arrived, he heard a case called against an old chief, who lived near him, and to by them, and to let them know that we think a little better or ourselves than we do of them.” The vim with whice Brigham gave utterance to his views of the Indian was in the habit of daily reciting six hundred verses from different languag- es.

Months afterwards, when the war was over and the white people went back, the old preacher’s house was the only one that had re mained untouched ; there it was with every article of the property which he had left, except bis corn and fodder, which had been used by parties of while men who hail passed by, at the close oflhe difficulties. The old chief was faithful and grate ful to his white friend, who had saved his property from the legal theft of bad men, and ali the Indians were true in their respect and veneratiou for the man “who talkes with the Great Spir it.” A Chinese trial has been in progress at Silver City, Idaho, and has consid erable interest from the novel way of swearing witnesses. The Tidal Wave thus desribes the ceremony : A roos ter’s head is hacked off with a knife, a saucer broken, the oath written on yellow paper, burned, and the smoke, in which is supposed to be the spirit of the burned oath, blown up to heaven in each case. The prosecution and de fense each swore five witnesses, killed five chickens, broke five saucers, burn ed five pieces of paper, ect. ‘After kil ling the chickens the}’ are thrown away by the Chinamen and considered unfit for use; but having had their throats cut, nicely bled, etc., the American heathen consider them none the worse for having been sworn by, and we con fess to having been guilty oflhe sacri lege of assisting to devour a portion that was really fat, tender and good lo our unsanctified palate.
