TWO WEEKS IN 'THE WILDERNESS
OF NORTHERN NEW YORK.
The first work of a party in the
wilderness is the !erection of the • ne
cessary camp-cabins, and. making the
requisite preparations fur camping
oat. For the first night we occupied
by permission the quarters previous
ly erected by a party of gentlemen
from Syracuse, who fora nnmber of
vbars have made lan annual visit to
'Smith's Lake, and who were to re
'turn on the next 'evening.
While some of the guides were en
gaged in getting breakfast, the King
and Widey with a guide : went on an.
exploring expedition along the west
ern shore of the lake for the purpose
(4- selecting a suitable place for the
nr.s'r CAMP.
i
Others of our party went out upon
the. lake to fisli for trout. At-bresk
fast call, our King and Widey return
ed, and repOrted 'that they had cho
sen a lovely spot for our camp near
a copious spring 'of the purest cold
water, on the western shore of the
lake, and about one hundred rods
north of Cainp Syracuse. Our fish
ermen Came to breakfast with speck
led beauties enough to supply our ta-•
ble for the day.
.Breakfst.oyer, we vacated the Sy
racuse camp,. and repaired to the
spot selected for Our place of abode
during our stay.'' We found iton an
elevation about twenty rods from the
lake shore,: -approached by an easy
ascent, and overlooking almost the
entire lake. The work of- erecting
our camp-cabins,' cutting out paths,
trimming out undergrowth, and set
ting our quarters in perfect order,
occupied the time of our guides, un
der the SupervisiOn of the- King and
Widey as rcliitects, for nearly two
days,
,'and; the building will stand
as a MonnMent tp the good taste of
the superv3ing architects. The guides
are indispensibleP and we Were fortu
nate in securing the services of faith
ful; good men, who fully understand
their duties F andi applied themselves :
cheerfully to their work ; profession
al guides and Woodsmen, yet they
were men of integrity and correct de
portment.
We erected firSt a sleeping, apart
ment, twelve by i•ixteen feet, and dis
tant about ten feet a dining room
and kitchen, siXteen by thirty-tWo
feet, inclang 'leanto twehe.by
sixteen. , These" were covered so
as to 'see'm ly us, with the
bark of the spruce trees, which grow
to a large fAze nud in great Ann
dance about. the 'lake. Onr bed was
made of the.bonghs of 'the hemlock.
with which we covered the ground
to the depth of six or eight inches,
over - which light blankets were
spread,- and for pillows we filled small
tie'ks,'•wh'ich we had with us with
'boughi This preparation with our
heavy blankets for covering, made a
comfortable bed.' Onthe completion
of our quarters, Ore named it

cool and exhilara' ling effect of the at
and relaxation from care,
gave each and all-of our party a keen
appetite, and no party, it' is safe to
say, ever enjoyed their meals •with
greater . relish. During our stay it.
was'a continual feast of yennson,,sal
mou • and speckled trout, with plenty
of the best of bread and corn cakes,
made by our guides, butter, maple
syrtiP, Potakiea, tea and coffee, with
condensed milk, pickles, etc., etc.
Our dining table was constructed of
s: j l
a single piece of spruce bark, four
feet in , width an ten feet long, turn
ed the'inside up, giving it the ap
pearance of a. broad piece of sole
leather, nailed upon a frame work
and set upcin posts. driien into the
ground, 'around which seats were ar
ranged. 'We were well supplied with
tin plates, cups, knives and fcrks,
spoons, and all the appointments ne
ce-csutry for setting our table. Oar
cooking apparatus was ample, con
sisting of- a sheetiron stove, teapot;
coffee-pot, frying-pan, , broiler; etc.,
and a number of our guides were
irst-class cooks.
Whilst partaking of our first break
fast at Camp T#anda, Wide,' dis
covered a strange taste in his tea,
and passing it tolAlf, says " taste it,
it's queer," Alf tasted, and then by
way of compariso l n,, took a sip of his
own, and says, Mine is-just like it?!
Taking ,a, second) taste; he made a
discovery, and slinging his cup at
the cook, he. exclaimed, " dangi it,-its
salt! They haclweetened tligir tea
from the salt eu Being pr4s mptly
rebuked by the Rhin' for indecorum
at table, the most becoming dignity
wa's maintained thereafter during our
stay.
There were id, the wilderness, in
Our •yicinity, fly other parties of
;
pleasure-seekers. Two from Syrb.-
CUBE' at Smith's Jake ; one at Tup
per's Lake—the ,R :v. Mr. Murray . ;
one at Albany Lake': these were tou
rists taking sketches for the purpoSe
of writing 114)(34 ; and one we met
as We' were returning, at Red Horse—

Kpi se , pal Cininfla, at Lowville, son,
and a student. ' 1 With -the Syracuse
.:. ;I tie: :en NV.I 1‘..M1 ill . well . acquaint-,
ed. One of theft camps being near
us, and - the other about two- nXes
distant on the nerthern shore of the
lake, there was a mutual feeling of
:good neighborhood prevailed among
0
'us, and frequent visits were exchang
ed. Senator NOien, of Svracuse,bc- .
ing one of the patty farthest fromus,
their camp was called Camp Noxen,
and the one nearest us, Camp Syra
cuse. We take pleasure in acknowl
edging the genetous .hospitality of
of both of yiese patties. The utmost
good feelini; preNJ,ailed, and all strove
to contribttte their share to making
our stay mutually pleasant and en
joyable. It is said that 'a fish diet
tends to secrete ;.n increase of phos
phorus in the bf,thu, which - if true,
may account for the exuberant bub
bling up of fun, rind the general good
nature, and genuine humor exhibited
by our entire
.paoy. _
..
The hunting was usually done in
the night-tima, by. floating in boats,
as described last week. As but two
of our party beside . the guides, bad'
viz :
'gnus, Widey and Benjamin, the,
-1
floating was mostly done by them.
Bog Lake, two miles north, and Har-.
rington's Pond, near by were visited
by Benjamin and a guide, without
success, except in the killing of a
loon, and the--ca4hing of some large
trout. Widey 'penetrated to Tup
per's Inlet, eight ~ mile cast, accom
panied by Alf and gUlde Knowlton ;
and remained absent all night: Widey
for the - purpose of
. floating for deer,
and Alf for that Of fishing. They're-
turned next day Without having cap
tured a deer, but reported that
Widay had shot at one; and had no
doubt mortally w o unded him, but he
run off into the thick bushes, and
'they could not follow him: They
had seen and had a fair chance to
have shot another, but for an unfor
tunate, and ludicamishap that be
fel Willey while attempting to fire.
He had arranged a strap running
from one of the oar-pins of their boat
to the other, and around his backfor
a support. In turning to. take aim,
he pressed hard. upon thastrap, and
pulled tri g ger ; the cap failed to ex
plode, and simultaneous with the
snap of the haminer, the strap slip
ped from the peg„.nnd over went
Widey on the flat of his back, heels
iiit ; Wider "went 'off but the gun
didn't, and the deer gave a loud blow
or whistle,, and 'skedaddled out of
' daiV;er.
The next iloatinr , expedition was
by guides Lewis and Collins, at Har
rington's Pond : they met with sue..=-
eess, and returned iu the morning.
with aline two-years old deer. This
supplied us wilti meat for several
-days, and enrlad tn. to repay the
hospitality of our Syracuse friends,
by actling them a saddle in place of
one'they had previously sent us.
Ike, with
guide
,Hamthond, next
tried his luck in .11qating . at Albany
Lake, but returned in the morning
and reported ii — , - Sh - ot at a deer, but
failed to sceure'hiru.
Others of our party devoted them
selves to fishing. King, Sam, Ike,
Alf and C.oful,, were quite successful
in this line. A set-line baited with
minnows was kept out for salmon
fishing. In this manner more . sal
mon could be caught than we could
make use of. Their weight ranges
from one to eight pounds. The siteck 7 ,
led trout fishing, With rod and 4,
was fine, and we found no trouble/in
,supplying ourselves with_an abun
dance for use i
,eaCh day. • /

At the suggestion of the 'Syracuse
gentlemen, a regatta was arranged,
in which the guides from Ahe three
camps were to compete/fur prizes. -
They were to row oue mile, by start
ing from a point.oppo,ite Camp Sy
racuse, north a half, miile, and turn
ing round a boat buiVed out in the
lake, row back tO the starting'point.
The contestants Lwith their boats, en
tered for the firSt,.a two-oared ,race,
for three yrizeS, with their positioni,
as drawn i by lot, were as follows, viz:
let.—James Leria, urin, Camp Towanda. '
241.—Dantre4$+nowl on, Roquette, .
' 3(l.—V. Edwards, fix Ten Wing, Comp Syracuse
4th.—Charleo Smith,f Champion, -'• "
tith.--Jolni Hitchcock, liarali, "
Gth.i-F*l. Comstock, 4th, "
In/this race the prize was won by
Chaiies Smith,. boat Champion; The
second, by D. iinowlithi, boat Ra
quette, 4nd the' third as to distance
MI
and time of reaching the starting
line, *as fairly won .by James Lewis,
boat Turin ; but as he had misunder
stbod the rule requiring' him to re
-him te'the line on the opposite side
of ,the steak-boat frimi where : they
- started," it was a question 'whether
the judges should not award the third
-prize to the next boat in : : V. Ed
wards, of the Green "Wing. It was
finally arranged by swarding an equal
prize to each. Candor compels us to
say that considering the disadvan
dzige of rowing clumsy and inferior
boats, 'so far as their capacity for
speed is concerned. Knowlton, Lew
is, and Edwards, made much -better
time tkanlir. Smith, of the Chiimpi
on. In fact, either, liith a boat , of
the capacity of the Chiimpion, would
have far out-distanced him. As it
Was, Ur. Lewis unquestionably 'row
ed a greater distance in the same
LILO than either.
The second was a .four-oared race
with a cockswain, 'for a single, prize.
The 'contestants, boats entered ; and
-choice of position, were as follows
lat.—D. Knowlton, Boat Roquette, cockswain
A. Hammond W. L. Collins, C. Towanda.
2d.—Chas. Smith; I B. Champion, cockswain
V. Edwards, 1. Stone, Camp Syracuse.
• Prize awarded to Smith and Ed

won. The third was a paddle race,
for a single prize. Contestants and

really the most skillful and
interesting race of the three,'wherein
Syracuse " gricefully yielded " to,To
.wanda. The whole affair passed off
pleasantly, and was the first regrea
ever , performetd on the waters ..of
Smith's Lake. This will tend to im
prove the quality of the boats used
in ttanSporting pleasure-seekers to
the.wilderneSS hereafter: Every guide
promised to have a faster boat nest
year.
This was to be our .
-I.l'T \Y CAMP,
as we were to start down the river
on our homeward trir the nest morn-1
iier , . The prospect of •para t ion seem:.
ed to be regretted by all, as our in
tercourse had proved 'a source of rap
tnal enjoyment. .
The evening set in very dark, with
heavy rain, and the most of us
retir
od early to rest ; but Sam and Ike,H
teenier , that our camp \should- not .
break up without another incident in
its history worthy of note, devoted
themselves to the composition sf im
promptu poetry of the machine kind,
to the- amusement of thT party: A
verse was composed and sung sepa
rately, applicable to each member,
and the poetry was of no mean Or
-der; full of genuine - wit; and good
hits. Each verse, as the two walked
out in front of our sleeping' apart
ment, Was" lined in solemn tone, and
sung to the tune of " the three bleak
crows," when they would-return to
the -dining room; comprise another
verse, line-it and sing as before: This
performance over, they too turned in
to rest, and all slept quietly till morn-
Oar guides rose early- and got our
breakfast in readiness, but it was yet
raining copiously ; after partaking of
breakfast, our luggage was all packed
ready for, our departure. The storm
broke away abort nine o'clock, A. U.,
when 'we bid "good bye " to, Camp
Towanda,' , took to our boats ,in
the same order as Ave came, and
headed towards the outlet of the lake
'for home. As we came opposite Camp
Syracuse where the American flag
was floating high, we drew up in line
and 'gave the party three rousing
(leers, which were as heafrily re
sponded to by them. They then fired
a salute of musketry, which was re
turned by us from our boats, anti we
said" good bye," and rowed on 'our
way, amid cheering and waving. 6f
handkerchiefs until we rounded.: the
point out of sight.
We made ranch better time going
down the stream, than when we came
up. All the party reached the "Wild
wood Home ' that evening, except
Benjamin, with guide Lewis,- and
Crofut, with guide :Higby. These
remained at Burnt Lake Camp the
latter until morning and the former"
until late-in the evening, when they
left, prepared to float for deer on the
.may down. They were encouraged
to do this from the fact that we hadl
seen . - . Sive deer -_along the shore of
Albany Lake, on the way' down!
,Widey made two shots at them, but
at an-unfavorable distance; and lOU
_ably neither shot reached its Mark.
At Burnt Lake Camp, the Bey. :3-Ir. -
Irish, before referred to, a -time plea
,sant gentleman, with his son and a
student, were in eanf,).. )I . e enter
tained our friends 11,,, , t3b1y and
pleasantly, and when I;enjamin .and
Lewis departed, be 1 , ,/poke for them
the best of luck: • It/awas arranged.
between Crofut and/Higby - and them,
that in, the event/of their killing • a
deer, they",shouhY stick the tail- upon
a pole, and. post'. it in the stream so
that it could be 'seen .by the former
as they•passgil on down in the morn
ing. Benjamin charged his gun with
twelve buckshot in each barrel, and
left in fall faith: that he . would be
successful. After restiing for the
nightiCroftit and Higby departed on
their way' at hour, . and had
proceeded • _about five miles, when
they,,canie . -siiddeuly, upon a pole in
,the Midst of the 'streani, upon whiel

KEEPING THE PEACE—NO.
A few weeks since, the writer o
ed in the columns of this paper a fe
thonghts on keeping the peace: I ,
was stated That all citizens should as
sist their officers in.,upholding the
laws and in punishing criminals.
That may we not do. more than this,
by-seeking,out and arresting the very
beginnings of crime? It is a terrible,
fast that hardened criminals are. sel-
doui reformed. They pay the pence
ty of one vice only to commit another
more- flagrant than the first. The
passions of men long nourished are
like swollen streams. 4, They cannot
be stayed. They rush forth with
wild fury, carrying destruction in
their course. It is better to check
the vicious tendencies of men ,before
they pass beyond control. The rivu
let by the hillside can be easily turn
ed, while the great river rolls on' its

your article, laalf eulogy and .half
obituary. Having listened to such

response until forbearance has ceased

a passing notice. Whether the article

some outside partisan, is. immaterial?.
You place it in the editoes, column,

send-my communication to the. RE
PORTER rather than to you for two
reasons: first, I wish your article to
have a .wider' circillation than the

of a dead man, pitching over and ex
posing his seared bones, would -not

FAT 11E\.— . It is a striking fact '
that most persons want to weigh
more-than they do,and measure their
health by their weight, as if a man
were a pig, valuable in proportion to•
his heaviness. " The racer is not fat;
a good plough horse has but a mod
crate amount of flesh. 'Heavy men-.
are not those which experienced con- i
tractors employ to build - railroads"
and dig ditches. Thin - men, the
world over, are the men for enditr
ance; are_ the wiry and hardy;'thin
people live the longest.% . The-' truth
i is, fat is A -.disease; and, as a' -proof,
fat people are never well a day at a
time; are not suited for hard work..
Still, there is a medium lietween . fat
as a butter-ball and thin and juice
less as a fence rail. For mere looks,
moderate rotundity is 'Most desira

but little, sleep a great gait °flu,
