Matonaza, Mark Dalton, and the

way without stopping, until they reach-
ed the scene of thealready narrated

Clone. But should the idea of his pale -
'aced friend be correct, it was neces-
sary to examine into the circumstance
Lt once, as it was easier to make these
nqquiries now than after a long and
arduous search.
They accordingi Inded the rocky
eminence above thets,and gazed

:hat they were inhabited. It was nee-
assary to cross the river to hold com-
ntmions with them but it was danger-
3us to show themsatives in a way, which
might terrify those who had witnessed
w dreadful a massacre. It was agreed
shat the Roaming. Panther, who was
i splendid swimmer, and knew a little
3f the Esquimaux dialect, should ven-
ture across' alone, and under cover of
the unerring rifles of the two friends.
He accordingly plunged into the water,
ind in a very abort time stood' upon
the opposite bank unarmed, and shout-
ing a welcome to the copper -coloured
race.
The inhabitants of the buts rushed
cut in great alarm, which subsided
when they saw one unarmed man be-
fore them. The Roaming Panther walk~
ad into the middle of the group+ speak-
ing with extreme volubility, and point-
ing with signs of horror to the steno
of the 'late terrible catastrophe. The
Esquimaux stood around him in timid
wonder; but after about ten minutes,
his eloquence seemed to prevail, and one
of the men, enter a can;;, moved
across towards the_Two friends. The

tranquil as hoi-came near and distin-
guished the friendly gestures of the

But for ten dais previously, they
had pushed on with such baste as to be
worn with fatigue almost to death. be-
ing likewise half-starved, and without
moccassons. A good day's rest. and
food, and new shoes, were indispensable.
They therefore accepted from the
fiood-natured Esquimaux a supply of
sh, and a tent, and disposed them-
selves to eat, rest, and make shoes, hav-
ing saved some deer -akin pieces for the
purpose. It was only after a day and
two nights' rest that they felt them-
selves able to renew their journey; but
then they had started wjih energy
strength, and hope. Their new friend_
parted from them with ood wishes
and an expression of r ret that all
red skins were not so Dscific.
