the Lake Superior region. He states in the
Detroit Adrvrfiser the following incident:
He has been employed in paying on the In.

wide acquaintance among the chiea Of the Va
rious tribes, and familiarity with their various
dialects render him eminentiy st. Mr.. Viii

went over to the north shore OF Lake Superior
to pay oil about seven hundred Chippewas who
reside near Grand Portage, within q few miles
Of the national boundary between the United
States and Canada While there, he became
acquainted with the Bois Torte Indians, tribe
who, as their name denotes, inhabit the 1thick
wood" or heavy timbered lands near Pigeon
river. The main subsistence Of this tribe is
upon the wild rice which grows axuriantly in
that vicinity. This crop Is sometimes cut Of
by some vicissitude, and when this happens.
these indians are frequently distressed for iood.
as the chase Is uncertain and game scarce
The last winter was q particularly hard one.
and in the course Of II this tribe wss reduced to
the horrible strait Of eating their own children,
which they did to the extent Of almost exter-

Yesterday the Treasurer Of the Illinois
Railroad Company paid Hon. John Moore,
Treasurer oi this State, twenty nine thousand
dollars, under the provision Of the 18th SEC
tioa Of the charter. whereby the State becomes
entitled TO portion Of the earnings OF the
road. This Is tho Grst payment that has been
made. and when We remember that the road
has Just been opened, and that Il Is yet incom-
plete, We are agreeably surprised Mt the large
ness Of the sum.
Without an outlay Of dollar from her own
Golfers. without dollars responsibility. Iii.
Dois IRON this time henceforth, will be the re-
cipient OF constantly increasing revenue
from this quarter. Within ten years the SUNS

pos "se,s up" for herself. and is able TO shake
