ors,
given by white men in order to deceive them; these and other causes
are always at work, operating against the efforts of the missionary. I
might, it is true, give you more instances than I have done of an
encouraging kind, respecting the Indians generally.[6]

[Footnote 6: The reader is referred to a memoir of CATHARINE
BROWN, a converted Cherokee girl, (written by the Rev. Dr.
ANDERSON, and published by the _American Sunday-school
Union_,) for one of the most interesting exhibitions of the
influence of the Gospel upon the human heart, as well as for
a very correct and gratifying account of missionary labour
and success among untutored Indians.]

But, perhaps, it will be better now to sum up the account by saying,
the missionary is at work among them with some degree of success; and
though, from the remoteness of many of the tribes, their strong
attachment to the superstitions of their forefathers, and other causes
already alluded to, the progress of Christianity is necessarily slow,
there is no doubt that it will ultimately prevail; the promise has
gone forth, and will be fulfilled; the heathen will be the inheritance
of the Redeemer, and the uttermost parts of the earth will be his
possession. He who has clothed the arm of the red man with strength,
shod his feet with swiftness, and filled his heart with courage, will,
in due time, subdue his cruelty and revenge; open his eyes to discern
the wondrous things of God's holy law; dispose his mind to acknowledge
the Lord of life and glory, and make him willing to receive the gospel
of the Redeemer.
