There is an artless tradition among the I ndians, related by I rving, of a warrior who saw the thunderbolt lying upon the ground, with a beautifully wrought moccasin on each side of it. Thinking he had found a prize, he plft on the moccasins, but they bore him away to the land of spirits, whence he never returned. Loud pealed the thunder From arsenal high, Bright flashed the lightning A thwart the broad sky; Fast oer the prairie, Through torrent and shade, Sought the red hunter His hut in the glade.
