tusks larger and thicker, and the hrosc is

Being destitute of team for four or

my grain | hoed in the three first years.
After had raised suficieucy for my

and generally carried it eight miles be-

For a specimen Of the hardships those
have often to encounter who move into
the wilderness, will give the following,
that took place the winter after | came
on: We had a remarkable snow, the first
of consequence, that fell; it was full two
feet deep. Our communca tion was with
the inhabitants of Hyde Park, and it was
necessary for US to keep the road, or, rath-
er path, so that we could travel we were
apprehensive of danger, if we did not
immediately tread a path through this
snow. was about out of meal, and had
previously left a bushel at deserted house
about FIVE miles on the way. | agreed
with Esq, Taylor, he being the only in
habitant with me, to start the next day
on the proposed tour. We accordingly
started before SUNRISE; the snow was
light, and we sunk deep into it. By the
middle Of the day it give some. which
made it still worse our snow shoes loaded
at every step; we had to use nearly our
whole strength to extricate the loaded
Shoe from its hold 1t seemed that our
hip joints would be drawn from their
sockets. We we're soon worried-could
90 but a few steps without stopping; our
fatigue and toll became almost insupport-
able--we were obliged often to sit down
ana rest, and were several times on the
point Of giving up the pursuit, and stop
for the night, but this must have been
fatal, as we bad no axe to cut wood for a
fire; our blood was heated, and we must
have chilled. We finally, at abou. dusk,
reached the deserted house, but was in ef-
feet exhausted. 1t seemed we could not
have reached the house had it been 20
rods further; SO terrible is th5toil to trav-
through deep snow, that no one can have
a sense of it till taught by experience
This days journey is often on my mind
in my many hard struggles it WAS ono o.
the severest. We struck up fire and
gathered some fuel that lay about the
house. and after we had recovered strength
