This road was afterwards used by' . flat boatmen, who having descended the Ohio and Mi..isissippi, and sold their boats . and produce would cross the lake on a sloop or schooner to this place, and then travel home an foot. In those times it frequently took a vessel between two and three days to make a trip, when it is now made in nearly as many hours. The continuation . of parts of this road through Mississippi still,. exits, and is known by the name of the "old Natchez trace." ' There has been many a story told of the. romantic adventures of the flat-boatmen in: their travels through the "wildernes," as it was then callal.—On - th - e - tlisbanding-of-tbe volunteers after the battle of New. Orleans,. this road became infested with robbers,_who sought the flat-boatmen as their prey, and:, the road became very dangerous to travel,: except in large parties, A young boatman_ who had realized a large profit on his pro— . -;•.:4 duce, was returning home on one occasion., by this road, when he was severely woun- • ded by a rifle ball, robbed of all his money,: and left for dead. Ile was found by a young Indian girl of exquisite beauty, the daugh ter of a chief who owned a large tract of land in Mississippi. The girl perceiving some signs of life, ran to fetch some water,_ • which she gave him to drink,and then dragg ing him into a thicket, went to thescauip and obtained two of her tribe to bring in the wounded man. His wound was dressed, - and the Indian girl attended . him, ank watched over him from day to day, until he, recovered. During his illness, the young boatman. observed that the Indian girl watched him. with deep interest, and his gratitude soon deepened into !eye. Ile made her his bride,: and the old chief gave to ItiM his daughter's. share of the land,.whichhe soon turned into a plantation, and civilized his wife. Though the old chief refusedl'io live with him, he. frequently came to see them and their chil dren, arid as the country gradually became. settled, the Indian wife of the white man. was long acknowledged to be the most. beau-, tiful and dignified lady in that section of the State. ¶-ly In no country in the world, has a person: so good.an opportunity of forming n correct Opinion of the relative Merits, as citizens, of the various kindreds and people of the earth. as in California. Here are found represen tatives of all nations--,mingling together in. the common pursuits of business—putting. off old habits and customs, and adopting. new ones—showing a willing obedience to laws of which they have no conception from early education, or wantonly bidding defi-. ante to their mandates through ignorance or careless oppesition. An individual of a widely different race—a distinct religion, a: government of laws that we should consider r a perfect burlesque upon civil institutions; who comes among tisi quietly and cheerfully. performing all the duties of a lay-abiding citizen, whenever those %duties are made known tollim, gives evidence of an inherent sense of right and duty, flint canriot4nil to, iinptesS favorably, any one with whoni - ho,„ 'comes in contact: Such are the representatives of the Chi,., nese nation now in. California, and we hesi% tate not to say, that in all those qualities Which go to make up the good citizen, they_ ars second to no foreigners in our midst._ Many of them are in the mines. The, tax upon foreign miners operates as onerously_ . upon them' as others. Yet they haVe he-.. vet refused to pay when called, upon, nor. even blustered about the mattter .• ff. they happened not to have the. money at the.mq ment, a day was named, and the money .Was forthcoming.
