Thu dogs were anxious, and we were: prepared es ith our guns to reee'vu loin.

We could not shoot the wont %rough th , s opening without too gre at a risk of killing the dogs, for he only appeared at the inside when the dogs were at the outside. We finally con cluded to atop * * hole thal we had made, and fell the tree by cuttiag a narrow gash around it. The tree came down a litili sooner than we had expected. Frank Ma han had the RIX lifLed for another stroke, as it went over with a crash. The wolf, with bristled back, glaring eyes, and glistening teeth leaped at his threat with ternble fe rocity. The.descending axe met half way, cleaving its scull and laying it dead at his feet. We hid no time to express our icon der and congratulations at his singular escape, before our attention was called to that which filled us with amazement if not dread. It was a human skeleton, of medi um size, and of a female, hidden in -the ca vity of the tree. Ha posture was erect, and the bones were held together by a kihd of clear futegument, that %coiled to cover, like ijransparent skin the entire frame.
