tMxiies wore worth. Mr.- M. sraa finally advised,
by tba chief in whose wig-wam he had dwelt, to
expose hi goods for sale, and then notify the jock
ies of the village that he waa ready to trade -although
he could not ofkr a "kmgdum for a

," Sooq aler this, while I was still sitting near
ray packs ot goods, like aa Israelite tu Monmouth
street, an elderly chief approached, and signified
his wish to trade. Out squaws placed some bear
meat belore him, tiler which I rave bin the nine;
and in Ihe meantime had desired my servant to
Search saddle bagi, aod t add la tb be-ef
saleable" articles, every Hung of every kind beyond
what was absolutely necessary tor my covering oa
my return. ' A spare shirt, handkerchief, and a
waistcoat, were thus drafted and, aaaong-ether
things, was a kind of elastic flannel waistcoat,
made for wearing next to tbe akin, and to be drawa
over the bead, as it was without button or any
opening in front. Il was too small for n, and al
together so tight and uncorulortabJe, Sllhoogh elas
tic, that I had determined to part with it. To this
last article my near customer look a treat fancy ;
and he made me describe to him tbe method of
putting it on, and the warmth and comfort of il
when on. Be it remembered that he waa a very
large, corpulent roan, probably weighing aiiteeo
stone ; I knew him to be very good natured, at I
had hunted once with his son ; and, on returning
lo his lodge, tba father had feasted me, chatted
with me by signs, and taught ne some of tbat
most extraordinary lndan Method of communtca.

I compared their dimensions with tbe garment into
which we were about to attempt their introduction.
However, by dint of great industry and care, we
contrived to gel him into it. In the body it sraa a
foot too short, and fitted him so dose that eery
