The Kadiak and Tchugaz numerals being almost identical 

 with those of the Tchuktchi, exhibit intimate relations with those 

 of the Choctaw. The Aleutans, Kaniagmutes, Tchugaz, Unal- 

 ashkans, &c., may therefore be regarded as the latest wave of the 

 Peninsular tide of migration, which from a remote period has 

 been pouring in no stinted flow into the American continent, 

 from the time when the Fuegians of the Chileno family in the 

 far south first left their Asiatic home till the present day. 



Within the limits of this article I have space barely sufficient 

 to give an outline of the argument which carries the Peninsular 

 family far into South America. The sun-worshipping Natshez 

 of Mississippi, and the Cuchan, Marico) a and Dieguno tribes of 

 New Mexico, as well as the Catawbas, Woccoons, Adahis, Uches 

 and Caddos, to whom I have already alluded, all belong to the 

 line of Peninsular migration, and the extinct mound-builders, if 

 extinct they be, as sun-worshippers must have been of the same 

 parent stock. But for the present I must pass them by as ethno- 

 logically of less importance than the South American members
