HOME AND FRIENDS.

HOME AND FRIENDS. Oh there is power to male each hour As sweet as heaven designed it: Nor need we roam to bring it home, Though few there be wIo find it. We seek too highAxtbs'gs close by, Aa3 lose what atute tous,i US; For life hath here no light so dear
 As home and friends around us. We oft destroy the present joy,
 For future hopes and praise them, Whilst flowers as sweet bloom at our feet, If we'd but stoop to raise them! For things afar still sweetest are,
 When youth bright spell hath bound us: But soon we're taught that earth has naught Like home and friends arond us. The friends that speed in tine of need, When hopes last reed isshaken, To show you still, that, come what will, We are not quite forSalen. Though all were night, if but the light From friendships altar crowned us, 'Twould prove that bliss f earth was this, Our home and friends around us!

Following the chief to the foot of the mountain, he found, sure enough, that he had taken the left hand road, which he ascertained by the tracks of his pony. He continued his jour ney to the east until about two hours before daybreak on the next morning, when he sat down, fatigued and hun gry; after daylight he killed 8 rattle snake eight feet four inches in length, which he roasted and ate for breakfa He kept on in the same direction, when about , o'clock he was overhauled by his brother in-law's dog which he killed immediately and passed on. On the next day, about ) o'clock, he was over hauled by another dog belonging to the tribe, which he dispatched in the same manner as the others; after which he proceeded without any molestation, travelling four days without daring to build a fire, only in the day time.
 He was seven weeks travelling be- fore he came to any tribe of Indians, during which time he had spent one week in despair, not travelling or ex- pecting ever to reach a habitation of whites. At the end of the above time he came to tribe which he calls the TOmahawks. He was kindly treated by them. For fear of being taken again, he assured them that he belong ed to the Flat Heads, and was in search of two crazy Indians who had made their escape. After asking some ques- tions in English concerning the "cra- zy lndians," he departed, and after nine miles travel came to the. Missouri river. He made a raft of logs and crossed over. Travelling due east, hC continued his journey nine weeks be. fore he arrived at White Lake in Min. nesota, during all of which time he haC subsisted upon game, which he killeC with his bow and arrow. He remain ed there three days, and sold his ac coutrements for clothing, and thel made n1s way TOT thlS State. He ar rived here in the cars.
 Barney is man of considerable in telligence, and seems to have a viviC recollection of nearly all that passeC during his captivity. He seems famil liar with Indian life, and gives man, of their signs for determining courses cures for diseases, &c. He would likc to see his children again, but would rather forego the pleasure than to gC back and remain with the tribe. Ht was married soon after he came to this country, and lived in Otsego county New York, where his wife died; after which he was employed by the Flu Company. He is 63 years old, bu still seems active and hardy. He de. scrbes the country where he has beer as the handsomest he ever saw. Truly he has "seen the elephant and if hi' story is correct, he can tell of more trials, tribulations and adventures thai any one now living.
