To show fear, is to whet an In dian's appetite for blocd ; coolness awes htm when to the ireat vexation of Uridger. Time passed slowly iu Sublelt'es lodge, while waiting for his wound to heal. Day passed after day, so entirely like each other that the monotony alone seemed sufficient to invite death to an ea;-y conquest. liut the mountain man s blootl, like the Indian's is strong nnd pure, and Lis llesh heals readily, therefore, since death would not have him, the wounded man was forced to accept of life in just this monotonous form. To him Joe Meek was everything, hands, feet, physician, guard, caterer, hunter, cook, companion, friend. What long talks they had, when Sublette grew better; what stories thoy told ; what little glimpses of a secret chamber in their leans, and a better than tho every day spirit, in ilmir ImHoms. was revealed, as If Sublette had longed for ex-j cilemeiit, while an invalnl in ins lonely lodgj on Bear Hiver. he j longed equally now for that bliss ful seclusion. Listening for, and hearing one's death-warrant from a band of blood thirsty sav ages, could only piove with bitter sharpness how ewect was lifti, even the most uneventful. For hours the council continued, and the ma jority favored the death sentence. But old clurf, culled the gold Gotia, argued long for an acquittal; he did not see tho necessity of nier dering two harmless travelers of the while race. Nothing availed, however, and just at sunset their djom was fixed. Tne only hope of escape was, that, favored by darkness, they might elude ths vigilance of their jailers; and night, although so UllJW UWDUIMBI ( 1 men will reveal such things in the near, seemed aRes away, even at isolation of sea-voyages, or the sundown.

By th." time the chief had discovered that the strangers understood the Snake' dialect.

The wxt djy at noon found them a hundred and fifty miles on their way to camp.

IIre they found the ubiquitous if not omnipresent American Fur Company encamped at the rendez vous of the Rocky Mountain Com pany, ihe partners Deing anxious to be freed from this sort of espion age, and obstinate competition on their own ground, made a propo sition to Vanderburg and Unpps to divide the country with them, each company to keep on its own territory. This proposition was re fused by the American Company ; perhaps because they feared hav ing the poorer portion set off to themselves by their more experi enced rivals. On this refusal, the Rocky Mountain Company de termined to suid an express to meet Capt. William Sublette, who was on his way out with a heavy stock of merchandise, and hurry him forward, lest the American Company should have the oppor tunity of disposing of its goods, when the usual gathering to ren dezvous began.

Captain Sublette hurried for ward with his train, which consist ed of sixty men with pack-horses, three to a man. In company with him, was Mr. Nathaniel Wyetb, a history of whose fur-trading and . salmon fishing apventurea basal ready been given. Captain Sub lette had fallen in with Mr. Wyeth at Independence, Missouri ; and finding him ignorant of the under taken on which he was launched, offered to become pilot and travel ing companion, an offer wbreh was ...r..!l.. 3 The caravan had reached the foot-hills of the Wind River Moun nains, when the raw recruits be longing lo both these parties were treated to a slight foretaste of what Indian fighting would be, should thev ever have to encounter it. Their camp was suddenly aroused at midnight by the simultaneous discbarge of guns and arrows, and the frightful whoops and yells with which the savages made an attack. Nobody was wounded, however; but on springing to arms, the In dians lied, taking with them few horses which their yells and fright ened from their pickets. These marauders were Blaekfeet, as Cap tain Sublette explained to Mr. Wyeth, their moccasin tracks har . ing betrayed them ; for each tribe has a peculiar way of making or shaping the moccasin, the expert in Indian habits can detect the na tionality of an Indian thief by hia foot-print. After this episode of the uiiht assault, the leaders re-, - doubled their watchfulness, and- reached their destination tn Pierre a hole about the first of July.
