In our last number we directed the attention of our read-
ers to the neglected record of the life and services of one
of the great men of the Revolution, and endeavored, by its
illustration, to revive something like popular interest in
the annals of the best days of the republic, her true heroic
days. We have reason to hope that the effort has not been
vain, and that our hasty and necessarily imperfect summary
of the incidents of Mr. Jay's life, and honest panegyric on
his virtues and public services, have not been without their
fruit. Thus encouraged, we propose to notice, as fully as
our limits will permit, the fresh and most attractive volumes
whose titles are prefixed to this article, and which most
strikingly illustrate the career and character of another man
of our classic story, the friend of Jay, one to whom tardy
justice has been done, but whose name is destined, when
prejudice has had its day, (and it is nearly over,) to command
Letters and Notes on the Manners, Custom:
Condition of the North American Indians.
