They spin and weave, and make butter and cheese, with many of the luxuries known to more enlight- ened nations. Their government is after the patriarchal order, and is purely republican in its character. In morals they are represented as honest and virtuous. In religion they differ but little from other Indians. Their features correspond with those of Europeans, with a fair complex- ion and a form equally if not more graceful. In regard to their origin, they have lost all knowledge or even tra-... dition; neither do their characters, manners, customs, arts or government savor of modern Europe." Another tribe of Indians called the Navijos, of whom we know but little, except that they have long had a place on the maps, is noticed by the same author. They occu- py the. country between the Del Norte and the Sierra Anahuac, in the province of Sonora, and have never succumbed to Spanish domination. " They possess a civilization of their own. Most of them live in houses built of stone, and cultivate the ground — raising vegetables and grain for a subsistence.
