In the California Star of the 5th Of June is
thrilling account Of the sufferings of the emf.
grant party in the mountains last winter. It |.
from journal kept by Capt Fallon. who with
six others. went in search of the sufferers. We
have only room for the Introductory paragraph
Of the Star:
The extracts which we give below are full of
thrilling interest. Mr.. Falon set out from the
settlements, in April last, with six others, to ex.
tend relief TO the remaining sufferers Of the
emigration, still within the mountains, and also
TO collect and secure the scattered property Of
both living and dead. lie succeeded in reaching
the cabins. and with the exception Of Kiesburg
not soul survived. They returned. bringing
with them this man, and large packs Of valua-
Bile property.
kiesburg was found in truly a lame table
situation; long subsistence upon the bodies Of
his deceased comrades had rendered him haggard
and ferocious looking, and the Unsuitable appe-
lite of the cannibal displayed itself on frequent
occasions, even after animal meat had been
placed before him. This fondness for human
aesh he had suffered himself to acquire in
preference to the beef or horse meat, Of which
he had an abundance; and IL Is TO be feared that
his conduct In the mountains was far from us,-
liable. and hidden transaction Of guilt remains
yet TO be brought to light.
