DA.SERIPTION OF THE Mr. Arm,

OR MOUNTAIN RAM.

[FROM THE NEW TORE DAILY ADVERTISER.)

In the fall of rfloo I was on an excurfion on
horfeback, through the plains that are litigated be-
tween the Safcatchevan and Miffouri Rivers, along
the rocky mountains, accompanied by Mr.Thomp-
fon, a gentleman in the N. W. Company's employ,
live Canadians, and an Indian guide. Returning
hack to the North, we followed the courfe of the
Bow• River, into the heart of the mountains, with a
view of examining them, and on the 3oth of No-
vember, at noon, we halted at the foot of the fiat
ridge to graze our bodes, and afcertain our lati-
tude. At a little dillanee a-head appeared a herd
of (mall animals, which we took to be a fpecies of
the Deer, in that country very numerous. While
Mr. Thompfon was taking his meridian altitude, I
went forward with the Indian to have a (hot, and
on a nearer approach was very much furprized to
find, inflead of deer, a herd of about twenty ani-
mals that were utterly unknown to me. Pleakd
with this difcovery, I advanced very cautioufiy,
keeping myfeif concealed from their view, to the
diflance of about 6o yards. Here I halted, and was
examining them with all the curiofity natural for a
man to feel on feeing any untsfual appearaace,when
the Indian, impatient at my delay, and fearful of
difcovery, fired his gun, and killed a female on the
fpot. The herd, alarmed by the report of the gun,
took to flight, and made for the rocks. Angry at
the Indian's impatienee,lpurfued them with eager•
nefs—hefollowed,and in thecourfe of the afternoon
we killed four more,two of which were young ones.
I had the fatisfatlion to (hoot a large male, whole
motions appeared to guide the flight of the ref( ; his
fuperior fize and enormous horns, made him the
particular objeft of my purfuit,and Ihave preferved
his fkin, with a view of prefenting it to the Royal
Society of London. During the winter, I had fre-
quent opportunities of hunting this tribe,wbich has
enabled me to make a few obfervations on it, hat
may be of advantage to Naturalifis, in afcertaining
the genus or fpecies of the animal. The dimen-
lions of the above male, taken on the fpot where he
was killed, namely, longitude r 15. 30. Weft, and
latitude so. North, are as follows, viz. length from
the note to the root of the tail, 5 feet ; length of
the tail, 4 inches ; circtinsference round the body,
4kfeet ; he (lands 31; feet high ; length of use
horn If feet; and girth at the head if feet. TM
horn is of the circulat kind, proceeding in a tri-
angle from the head like that of the ram ; in lhorte
this animal feems to be a compound of the deer

ed it kleser lusodorter, (the Mountain Ram.) It
is only to be met with in the rocky mountains, and
it generally frequents the higbefi regions which
produce any vegetation, though fomeximes it de.
tcends to feed to the bottom of the tallies, from
whence, on the lean alarm, it returns to the moll
inacceffible precipices, where the hunter can feldom
follow it. His appearance, though rather clumfy,
is expreifive of aftive Ilrength ; and the nimblenefs
of his motion is furprizing—he bounds from one
rock to another with u much facility as the goat,
and makes his way through places quite impreEti-
cablg to any other animals, in that country, without
winks. I know no animal which encourages purfuit
fo much as this; in his flight he frequently turns back
and flares at the hunter with a kind of Ilupid curio-
fity,which is often fatal to him. This ought perhaps
to be afcribed to h is ignorance ofman, the mountain s
being fo horribly defolate, that they are but little
frequented, except it be by ibme llraggling war
parties of the natives. The Mountain Ram, or
Sheep, though not numerous, are to be met with
in considerable numbers in fbme parts of the moun-
tains, from lat. s 4 fouthward. I have on feveral
occafions Peen herds of so or so, but generally not
more than two or three of them together ; fre-
quently I have been entertained with a view of one
of them looking over the brink of a precipice, (eve-
ral hundred yards above my head, fiercely appear.
ing bigger than a crow, and bidding defiance to all
approach. Thefe frightful litigations are quite na-
tural tp them ; they run up declivities of hard fnow
or rough ice, with facility.—Purfuing them in
there fituations, I have been obliged to cut Reps
with my knife, where they d without diffi-
culty. Sometimes you imagine their progrefi is
flopped by a chafes, or projeaing rock, but if
you auempt too near an approach, at one bound
they are out of your reach. The female does not
difer materially from the male, escort that her
fize is much lefs, and fhe has only a Gall black
flraight horn, like that of the goat; the colour and
texture of the hair are the fame in both, and they
are all diainguiflted by the white rump and dark
tail. In other refpeas the female greatly refem.

RA of the female and of the young male is a
great delicacy; for my own part, I think much
more delicate than any other kind of venifon
and the Indians, who live entirely on animal food.
