The Havasupais, in the depths of their Canyon, grow the finest, largest and most tender corn in the world, peaches and figs galore, and all the ordinary vegetables.

Emet. Fever-ball twice in the day. 23d. Breathing not quite so laborious. Will not eat. Medicine as before. Apply a blister on the chest. 24th. Nearly the same. Bol. utheri. 26th. Decided amendment.
