Karistagea, or Steeltrap, thought to have been unfairly dealt with at his death. Buried in the road. Fish Carrier’s Reserve at the bridge. Four miles square. Red Jacket born on the opposite banks of the lake at Canoga. Historical reminiscences of Mr. Burnham. Letter stating the first settlements on the Military Tract at Aurora. Address before the G. O. I. Folly of keeping the society secret. Horticultural meeting. Dr. Thompson. Mr. Thomas. Anniversary of Academy. Salem Town. Intelligence, moral tone, hospitality of the place. Cars at Cayuga bridge. Logan was the son of a Cayuga. Did the Cayugas conquer the Tutelos of Virginia, and adopt the remnant? Cayugas scattered among the Senecas, in Canada and west of the Mississippi. How many left? What annuities. * * * * * GENEVA: Ancient site of the Senecas. Origin of the word Seneca. Is it Indian or not Indian? Examine old forts said to exist in this area. Are there any vestiges of Indian occupancy at the “Old Castle”—at Cashong—Painted-Post—Catherinestown—Appletown? * * * * * CANANDAIGUA: In visiting Fort-hill on the lake, see what vestiges. Another site bearing this name, exists to the north of Blossom’s. What antiquities? What traditions? Ask old residents. Enquire of Senecas west. * * * * * ROCHESTER: Nothing left here of the footprints of the race—all covered deep and high with brick and stone. Whole valley of the Genesee worthy examination, in all its length and branches. Wants the means of an antiquarian society to do this. Truly the Iroquois have had visited upon them the fate with which they visited others. They destroyed and scattered, and have, in turn, been destroyed and scattered. But their crime was the least. They destroyed as _heathens_, but _we_ as _Christians_. In any view, the antiquarian interest is the same—the moral interest, the same. The Iroquois had noble hearts. They sighed for fame. They took hold of the tomahawk as the only mode of distinction. They brought up their young men to the war dance. They carefully taught them the arts of war. We have other avenues to distinction. Let us now direct their manly energies to other channels. The hand that drew a bow, can be taught to guide a plough. Civilization has a thousand attractions. The hunter state had but one. The same skill once devoted to war would enable them to shine in the arts of peace. Why can not their bright men be made sachems of the pen, of the press, of the pulpit, of the lyre? * * * * * BATAVIA, _July_.—There are still traces of a mound on Knowlton’s farm, a mile from Batavia, up the Tonewanda. Bones and glass beads, have been ploughed out of it. Other traces of former aboriginal occupancy exist in the vicinity, a stone pestle, axes, &c. having been found.
