LoSr SHEEP liEEnER.-Oncof NIT, Hart $ sheep-herdcrs, at the base of Bill William $ Mountain, last week, became bcwildcrcd and followed the band of sheep so far away from camp that in his confusion he had no idea where he was nor in what direction from anywhere. After staying with the sheep day or two and until he lost all hope of bringing them to camp, or of any ones hunting him up, he abandoned the flock and wandered five days without fool, and only found water twice in the time. MT Uiit who has several camps, hap pcued in the meantime tovisit this one, aud finding it abandoned anJ the sheep gone, immediately caused search to be made, and in tracking the lost hculcr. fouUd that be had crossed thc plain road three times, but as it appears, paid nc attention to it, if in deed hc saw it at all When found hc was dlmo-, exhausted. and had about given up all hope. Water and grub. however, soon revived him uud hc is now as guud as ever. When a man hccomcs hcWil1arcd and lost in the wond~ or on the plains, it seems Co take his senses away from him. and to leave nm with the power of physical yoiition. hut without thc least reason. memory or mental strength or any kind.
