Thirty Years of Army Life on the Border

IN the third volume of Bancroft's History of the United States may be found a very circumstantial, comprehensive, and reliable account Of the aborigines, who, from the time Of the advent of Europeans, have inhabited that portion Of our territory lying east of the Mississippi River, and the author, in this connection, has presented many highly ia teresting facts relative to their habits, languages, institu tions, and religions; but, with the exception Of a brief allu sion to the partially civilized eastern Sioux or Dacotahs, he as yet has said nothing concerning the Comanche, Kio way, Cheyenne, and other numerous and waflike tribes that range over the great plains west of the Mississippi.
