or Indian bucks would touch it. In
fact, they avoided it with every mani
festation of repugnance and disgust.
After the feast, which was slowly en-
joyed by all present, the evenings
amusement commenced. A large fire
was built in the corral or COURTYARD.
around which the trappers and guides
gathered, while outside the Indians
started up their war songs and medicine
dances. There in the center of that
corral these haH-wild people sung and
danced until the daylight dawned.
Their songs we're musical and were sung
in that uninterpretable patois peculiar
to that strange race of people who have
hoated upon the cutter edge of civiliza-
ton since the landing of their ances
tors in Quebec and Montreal, two GEN.
turies before. They used no English
words and conversed as fuently in In
dian as in their own coarse lingo, which
is more French than anything else, but
which few Frenchmen could under
stand. There, around their bonfire,
they drank brandy and smoked; some
played upon violins, others sang wild
songs of frontier life. Here and there an
old trapper or yoyager related some won
drous story of frontier adventure as
guide or scout. but during the entire
night, although liquor flowed as freely
waster, no harsh or unkind word was
heard among these rough, wild noun
taineers and plainsmen. Many New
Years have passed away since that
bright, cold New Years night within
the Bordeaux stockade, but the recollec-
tons of that great cat-feast with the
hunters and trappers of the North
western mountains remains ever fresh
IN my memory.

WISE WORDS,

The fire of vanity is fed by the fuel
of fattery.
Charms strike the heart but merit
wins the soul.
Strive for the best and provide
against the worst.
Peoples intentions can only be de-
cided by their conduct.
An effort made for the happiness Of
others lifts us above ourselves.
Falsehood and fraud shoot up in
every soil, the product of all climes.
Life is full of bitter lessons, the sim
plest of which is that one mans fal
makes forty men laugh.
Preserve your conscience always sof,
and sensitive. If but one sin force its
way into that tender part of the soul
and dwell easy there the road is paved
with iniquities

or pot-pourri of rabbits and prairie dogs,
rich coup of beaver tail, huge slices of
bear meat, juicy venison steaks broiled
upon the Goals, and large rounds of
buffalo haunch boiled almost to frag-
ments. No bread was used and vege-
tables were not thought of. The near
est thing to bread was stack of soda
crackers in the center of the table, and
two or three pans of nice-looking
doughnuts, which belied their looks
and almost spoiled my dinner when I
discovered that they had been fried in
the lard or fat extracted from skunks,
which formed starle article of food
among frontiersmen. Notwithstanding
the variety and abundance at this
great New Years feast, the guests
eagerly sought their share of the feline
roasts. The white visitors partook but
very sparingly of this strange dish-a
small taste to crafty our host and our
