GRIZZLY BEAR-HUNTING. 



The every-day sports of the wild woods include many 

 feats of daring which never find a pen of record. Con- 

 stantly, in the haunts of the savage, are being enacted 

 scenes of thrilling interest, the very details of which, 

 would make the denizen of enlightened life turn away 

 with instinctive dread. 



Every Indian tribe has its heroes ; celebrated re- 

 spectively for their courage, in difi'erent ways exhibited. 

 Some, for their acuteness in pursuing the enemy on the 

 war-path ; and others, for the destruction they have ac- 

 complished among the wild beasts of the forest. 



A great hunter, among the Indians, is a marked per- 

 sonage. It is a title that distinguishes its possessor 

 among his people as a prince ; while the trophies of 

 exploits in which he has been engaged, hang about 

 his person as brilliantly as the decorations of so many 

 orders.
