Heroes and HorOines of the Border.

In American history there are no NOR
interesting figures than the Heroes ant
Heroines of the Border. Bold, dashing, ad
venturous and patriotici loyal to frien ds, t.
country and 10 the interests OF society, thei
work was singularly effective in the advau
cement of American civilization. Will
seeming recklessness, their efforts were ia
the intetess Of law and order, and the people
owe them debt Of gratitude they do no
forget. Their page in history is as fascinat.
ing as it is honorable, and there is pe,ul
lar pleasure in readingIthe nauat e ol Ibeil
wonderful exploits.
The times which produced these he,c es
and herOines mark a period in American
history of absorbing interest alike TO old and
young. IL is proper that it should be so
These hardy pioneers coupled virtue with
courage, humanity and love of country
with the stern duties Of frontier life and
battle, aud the example Of their liyes not
only interests bat strengthens our faith and
admiration in human courage and unselfisb
purpose.
In American pioneer history there are
three distinct erss mATKed as distinctly by
three geographical divisions; from the Allie
ghenY Mountains TO the Mississippi, mark
ing the firsti from the Mississippi TO the
Rocky Mountains the second; California
and the Pacific Slope the third. The settle
ment Of these vast regions developed great
leaders, whose achievements have ma9e
them Justly and widely famous. They have
warm place in the hearts of the people,
and prominent one ia their admiration.
II Is appropriate that their achievements
should be recorded, and we note with pleas.
