THE COMPLAINT OF A FORSAKEN INDIAN WOMAN

[_When a Northern Indian, from sickness, is unable to continue hisjourney with his companions; he is left behind, covered over withDeer-skins, and is supplied with water, food, and fuel if the situationof the place will afford it. He is informed of the track which hiscompanions intend to pursue, and if he is unable to follow, or overtakethem, he perishes alone in the Desart; unless he should have the goodfortune to fall in with some other Tribes of Indians. It is unnecessaryto add that the females are equally, or still more, exposed to the samefate. See that very interesting work, _Hearnes Journey from HudsonsBay to the Northern Ocean_. When the Northern Lights, as the same writerinforms us, vary their position in the air, they make a rustling and acrackling noise. This circumstance is alluded to in the ?rst stanza ofthe following poem._]
