vourng it raw, like wolf, turn over and go
to sleep again. And yet they are not wanting
in courtesy, Of quite an elevating character.
Mrs Mi,ek, the wife of chief, apologized to
me for her seeming want Of hospitality on one
occasion, and explained to me by most express
sive signs, and no nconsiderabIe exposure Of
her person, that she hoped she was about TO
present the house of Milek with an heir. She
was fortunate as she hoped, for ! saw them not
quite an hour after, with fine boy, both par
ties looking as unconcerncd as if nothing had
happened to either. The small image was the
image of his father, and was dressed in cos
tune similar in cut and color to that OF the
great chief, boots, breeches, and Jumpers all
complele-ihe only difference being that the
skin Of the white fox was substituted for that
of the bear.
"They always take or their clothes on going
TO sleep; and men, women and children all lie
huddled up together to keep themselves warm.
IL you come on them suddenly in this plight,
they are not the least abashed, and will offer
to make room for you 10 join the group. 1t is
wei, however, 10 accept these hospitaliles
with some reserve. Burns had not slept in a
Eiah hut, or he never would have sung of the

IT'S dozen or 80 of years ago,
Somewhere in the West countrce,
That nice girl lived, as the lloosicrs knew,
BY the name Of Deborah Lee;
Her sister was loved by Edgar Poe,
But Deborah by me-
Now I was green, and she was green
As sumner squash might be;
But we loved as warmly as other folks,
and my Deborah Lee
With a love that the lasses Of IIoosierdom
Coveted her and me.
But somehow it happened long ago,
In the agueish West countree,
That a chill March morning gave the shakes
To my beautiful Deborah Lee;
And the grim steam doctor Course him) came,
And bore her away from me;
The doctor and death--od partners they
In the agucish West countree.
The angels wanted her up in heaven,
(But they never asked for meO
And that is the reason, rather guess,
In the agueish West countree,
That the cold March wind, and the doctor & death
Took off my Deborah Lee,
My beautiful Deborah Lee,
From the warm sunshine and the opening flowers.
And hid her away from me.
Our love was as strong as a six-horse team,
Or the love Of folks older than we;
And possibly wiser than we;
But death, with the aid of the doctor and steam,
Was rather too many for Inc
So he closed the peppers and stopped the breath,
Of my sweetheart, Deborah Lee,
And her form lies cold in the prairie mold,
Silent and cold-ah, mel
The foot Of the hunter shall press her grave,
And the prairies sweet, wild flowers
In their odorous beauty around it wave,
Through all the summer hours;
The still, bright summer hours;
And birds shall sing in the tufted grass,
And the nectar-ladcn bee,
With his dreary hum on his gauze wings pass
She wakes no more to me!
Nh! never more to me,
Though the wild birds sing and the wild flowers
She wakes no more to me. [spring,
Yet oft, in the hush of the dim, still night,
vision of beauty see;
Gliding soft to my bedside, phantom of light
Dear, beautiful Deborah Lee,
hfy h,;lo .ia. une to lao
And wake to mourn that the doctor and death,
And the cold March wind should stop the brcat h
Of my darling Deborah Lee,
Adorable Deborah Lee;
That the angels should want her up in heaven,
Before they wanted me
