 This celebrated speech {says the Re- yiew) is probably as good a specimen as any or record, of the eioqucnce of Te- cumseh. 1t was natural cloqaences characteristic, as all natural eloquence must be, of the qualities of the man.

 The following anecdote IS related of their chief:--

 Itis said, that in the last conference at Vincennes, he found himself, at the end of long and animated speech, un- 1 provided with seat. Observing the neglect, Governor Harrison directed a chair to be placed for him, ard requested l him tosaeeepfi if. aYour Father, 2 said l theinterpreter, .'requests you to take q chair" sMy Father" replied the chief, '.the sun is my father, and the earth is my mother; l willrepose upon Der bosom And he adjusted himself on the ground iu tiae indian manner. The reviewer thus concludes hls aketch:--

 On the whole, the character of Te- eumseh, in whatever light it may De viewed, must be regarded as remarka- ble in the highest degree. That he proved himself worthy of his rank as a general officer in the army of his Bri- tannic Majesty, or even his reputation as great warrler among all the lndi- 1 ans of the North and West,,is, indeed, | q small title to distinction. Bravery is a savage virtue; and the Shawnees are a brave people: too many of the Amerl- ean nation have ascestained this factby experience. His oratory speaks more for his genius. It was the utteranee of 1 a great mind, reused by the strongest motives of which human nature is sus- eeptible, and developing power and a labor of reason, which commanded the admiration of the civilized, as justly as the confidence and pride of the savage.
