THE ESQUIMAUX INDIANS.
EoQ "a l4SDhhIeo.


The male and female Indians, which
have been exhibited ia this city for some
weeks past, by Capt. Hadiock, it appears
were Kidnapped, and that they were when
taken, strangers to each other.


Suspicious to this effect, have existed
for some time; but, from the threats OF
Capt. Hadlock to take their lives If they
diyulged the secret, (for it appears that
they both speak the English langusge,) IT
was difficult to obtain any Information
from them.


Frederick A. TalImadge, ESQ. in order
to be convinced as TO their real situation,
prevailed upon the keeper Of the house
where they lodged, TO visit their room in
the night after Capt. Hadlock had gone to
bed. He did so aud after a long inter-
view, succeeded in inspiring the Indians
with confidence, who related to bin the
following facts:


That the man called an Indian Clief,
by Capt. Hadlock, was out IN his canoe
fishing on the coast Of Labrador which
was his occupation. That ne bad been
long 10 the habit oil Ooaruing LnS'Isn auu
American vessels, and had learned the
English language. That he was invited
alongside Of Capt. Hadiock's vessel when
he was immediately taken on board, and
put into the hold, and his canoe hoisied
on board and concealed. After this, Capt
I'll. sailed some distance down the coast,
and sent five men on shore, and stole me
woman and her infant from her fathers
hut. That when she came on board, IT was
discovered that she also spoke English,
and demonstrated, but without effect; and
that before she was awed into silence, the
Captain knocked her down oc the deck'
and ultimately put her into confinement.
The man also states, that the dress OF seal
skins with which they are now clad, IS
not the dress they wear in the country o.
their nativity, but were made on board
forihe purpose Of imposing them upon Inc
public as natives Of some other part oi the
coast.
