I was on that day at _Young's Bay_, where I saw the ruins of the quarters erected by Captains Lewis and Clarke, in 1805-'06: they were but piles of rough, unhewn logs, overgrown with parasite creepers.
On the evening of the 5th, Messrs.

Pillet and M'Lellan arrived, from the party of Mr.David Stuart, in a canoe manned by two of his men.

They brought, as passengers, Mr.Regis Bruguier, whom I had known in Canada as a respectable country merchant, and an Iroquois family.

Mr.Bruguier had been a trader among the Indians on the Saskatchawine river, where he had lost his outfit: he had since turned trapper, and had come into this region to hunt beaver, being provided with traps and other needful implements.

The report which these gentlemen gave of the interior was highly satisfactory: they had found the climate salubrious, and had been well received by the natives.
