FEEFACE. 



The collection embraced in this Catalogue comprises accu- 

 rate portraits painted from life of fortj-three different tribes 

 of Indians, obtained at the cost, hazard, and inconvenience 

 of a ten years' tour through the South-western Prairies, New 

 Mexico, California, and Oregon. Of course, but a short de- 

 scription of the characters represented or of the leading inci- 

 dents in their lives is given. But even these brief sketches, it 

 is hoped, will not fail to interest those who look at their por- 

 traits, and excite some desire that the memory, at least, of 

 these tribes may not become extinct.
