When the oxen were inspanned, however, and ???we attempted to move, we found my tackle, which was old, so rotten from the effects of the rain, that something gave way nt every strain. Owing to this and to the softness of the vley, we labored on till sundown, and only succeed ed in bringing one wagon to its destination, the other two remaining fast in the mud in the middle oftlio vley. Next morning, luckily, ???the weather cleared up, when my men brought ???over the tent, and in the afternoon the other two wagons.

We started him in a green hol low among the hills, and his course inclining for camp, I gave him chose. Ho crossed the level broad strath and made for the opposite densely wooded range of mountains. Along the base of these we followed him, sometimes in view, sometimes on the spoor, keeping tho old fellow at a pace which made him pant. At length, finding himself much distressed, lio had reeourso to a singular stratagem. Doubling round some thick bushes which obscured him from our view, he found himself beside a small xm>1 of rain water, just deep emmgh to cover lis body; into this he walked, uud, facing about, lay gently down nud awaited our on coming, with nothing but his old gray face and massive horns almvu the water, and theso concealed from view by rank overhanging herbage.
