The concluding portion of the narrative pub

the pallant Cnplnin and his gallant bind at the
Boiling Springs, in lat. 40 dep. We now re
sumu the narrative, describing the extraordina
ry perils and hardships of the journey over the
Sierra Nevada a story of thrilling interest and
fearful incident.
On the l.rth o( January the expedition reach

which the Indiana informed us had no outlet.
It in about thirty-five miles long, and by the
mark of the water line along the chores, the
spring level is about twelve feet above its pre
sent waters. The chief commenced speaking
in n loud voice as we appinnched, and parties of
Indians armed with bows and arrows issued
Irom the thickets. Wo selected a strong place
lor our encampment a grassy bottom nearly
enclosed by the river, and furnished with abun
dant firewood. The village, a collection of
straw huts, was a few hundred yards higher tip.
An Indinn brought in a large fish to trade, which
we had the inexpressible satisfaction to find was
a salmon trout ; we gathered around him oa-

"The now deepened gradually we advin

and putting one of them on a horse, wo enjoyed
the unusual sight of an Indian who could not

appeared to have no knowledge of hordes. The
snow wag three or four feet deep in the sitm.uit
of the pasa ; and from this point the guide point
ed nut our future road, declined to go any fur

tance from tho camp, had ant down to tie his
moccasins, when he heard alow whistle near,
and louking up, saw two Indians half hiding be
hind a rock about fifty yards distant ; they w ould
not allow him to approach, but, breaking into a
laugh, skimmed ofTover the snow, seeming to
have no idea of the power ol firearms, and think
ing themselves perfectly eafo when beyond
arm'n length."

they were given to understand that they would
not be permitted to come armed into the eamp ;
and strong guards were kept with horses. Strict
vioilance was maintained anion? the people
and one-third at a time were kept on guard du
ring the night. There is no reason to doubt
that the.e dispositions, uniformly preserved,
conducted our party securely through Indians
famed for treachery.
"In the meantime, such a salmon-trout feast
as is seldom seen was going on in our camp ;
and in every variety of manner in wliich fish
could be prepared broiled, fried, and roasted in
the Bhes was put into requition ; and every
few minutes an Indian would be seen running
ofTto spear a fresh one. Whether these Indi
ans had sopn w hites before we could not be cer
tain ; but thev were evidently in communica
tion with others w ho had, as one of them hail
some brass bulletin, and we noticed several o
ther ar'icles of civili7ed manufacture. We
could obtnin from them but little information
respecting thr country. They made on the
L'round a drawing ,( tho river, which they re
presented as issuing from another lake in the
mountains three or four days distant, in a direc

drew a mountain ; and fur'her still, two rivers;
on one of' which they told s that people like
ourselves travelled. Whether thev alluded to
the settlements on the Sacramento, or to a par
ty from the United States w hich had crossed the
Sierra almul three decrees to the southward, a
few years since, I am unable to determine.
"I tried unsuccessfully to prevail on some of
them to guide us for a few days on the road, but
they only looked at each other and laughed."
On the 21th of January they met with the fol

The follo'.vinjr is an anecdote of Commmo
dorc Decatur. It occurs in t late number of
the Nautical Magatine:
"Before the war, Captain Carden and the
Macedonian wero at Norfolk ; Decatur was
there, too, and a warm intimacy soon joined
in friendship two kindred hearts. While d. trus
sing naval affairs one day, Garden said, 'Deca
tur, your bhipa are good enough, and you are
a clever set of fellows'; liut what practice havo
you had in war 1 there's the rub. One of these
days we v; ill prohaWy have a 'brash' together,
and if I catch your ship at sea, 1 will knock
her into a cocked hat, Stephen.' 'Will you,'
says Decatur ; '7 u ill hrt you a hut on it.' Tho
bet was tgTeed on, and the conversation chan
god.
"Rut a few months elapecd ere the war that
had been threatening commenced, and the twn
cspiains, by aome singular coincidence, mrt.
The Testtlts of the action are known. Captain
Garden, on going on board tho United States,
was received by a lieutenant at the gangway
to whom he tendered hta sword- 'Not to me,
sir,' said the officer, Anit to the Captain.' 'And
where is the VaptninT raid the embarrassed

"Garden went aft, Mid his 'eelings on meet

vet take the sword ora brave nnn ; Von have

on the other's shoulder, 'I will tale that hat, my
dear fellow.'
"In trmsffcrtingtothe United Stte the suit-
