THREATENED ATTACK BY
INDIANS.

MAY s.—On account of our animals, it was necessary
to remain to-day at this place. Indians crowded name
rously around us in the morning ; and we were obliged
to keep arms in hand all day, to keep them out of the
camp: They began to surround the horses, which, fir
the convenience of grass, we were guarding a little
above, on the river. These were immediately driven in,
and kept close to the csmp. In the darkness of the night,
we had made a very bad encampment, our fires being com-
manded by a rocky bluff within fifty yards; but, notwith-
standing, we had the river. and small thickets of willows
on the other side. Several tittles during the day the camp
wa insulted by the Indians ; but, peace being our ol*ct.
I kept simply on the defensive. Some of the Indiaus
were on the bottoms, and others haranguing us from the
bluffs ; and they were scattered in every direction over
the hills. Their language being probably a dialect ef
the Utah, with the aid of signs some of our i.eople eould
comprehend them very well. They were the same people
who had murdered the Mexicans ; and towards us their
disposition was evidently hostile, nor were we well dis-
posed towards them. They were barefooted, and nearly
naked ; their hair gathered up in a knot behind ; Fuel
with his bow, each man carried a quiver with thirty or
forty arrows partially drawn out. Besides these, each
held in his hand two or three arrows for instant service.
Their arrows are barked, with a very clear, translucent
stone, a species of opal, nearly as hard as the
diamond ; and, shot frem their long bow, are airtiost
as effective as a gunshot. In these Indians, I was
forcibly struck by an expression of countenance resem-
eling that in a beast of prey ; and all their actions are
those of wild animals. Joined to the restless motion of
