strean--" Fountain that Bols, and found it
one OF the greatest natural cunoSlties | have

smooth rock, elevated several feet above the
EARTH with an oval top, and directly upon the
summit is round basin, like an artificial ioun-
tain, into which comes from the bottom a
stream of water as large as my arm, with MS
much forca as il thrown by fire engine. The
basin remains filed constantly but does not run
over having subtcuaneous outlet, Gu tasting
this water, much TO my astonishment, | found it
very similar TO Congress water only much more
pleasant | drank large quantities at It, anu il
produced delightful sensation, giving me d
voracious appetite for the hunters dinner, which
ny guide set before nln in the shape OF u dear'S

or any condiments whatever We made most
sUmptlsOus repasl, and returned to camp much
pleased with our days excursion.
Ii this spring was placed in any Of the East.

than the Congress Spring | have no doubt Il
is supposed by The people IN the country To be
pure soda water, but probably contains othcy
salts. The Indians call il the Z" Big Medicine
Spring. and Whenever they pass it, they put u
propitiatory Offering into il, IN The form OF kei-
Ties, cups arrows, &c.
We have gTea, abundance Of game here and
indeed we have not been without deer, antelope
