Keane; as this gentleman who, on seeing
the danger of his friend, left his place of
concealment, upon which, seeing the new
antagonist, turned his rage against him.
Mr. Keane stood his ground :with his piece
ready cocked; the elephant stopped when
within twelve yards of his victim ; now
was the critical moment—slowly is the
gun raised to the shoulder, and, with stea
dy aim at the forehead, the trigger is
drawn, when, horror upon horrors, the

find the following:
“ There was one little incident on the
field which excited great sympathy.
Mexican woman was found in a gorge
under one of the peaks of the mountain,
having about her ten or twelve of her
countrymen, five or six of whom were
dead. She was endeavoring to make the
beds of the living as easy as she could,
by removing the stones from under them
and placing their heads upon her own per
son. She refused bread and water herself,
tendering everything was offered to her to
the sufferers about ber. It was almost
the only bright spot on that bloody ground.
A monument should be raised to herwhieh
