From the earliest days of the discovery of America, its distant shores became the refuge and rendezvous of adventurers of every description, whose daring genius, stifled by the trammels of the old European civilisation, sought fresh scope for action. Some asked from the New World liberty of conscience-the right of praying to God in their own fashion; others, breaking their sword blades to convert them into daggers, assassinated entire nations to rob their gold, and enrich themselves with their spoils; others, lastly, men of indomitable temperament, with lions' hearts contained in bodies of iron, recognising no bridle, accepting no laws, and confounding liberty with license, formed, almost unconsciously, that formidable association of the "Brethren of the Coast," which for a season made Spain tremble for her possessions, and with which Louis XIV., the Sun King, did not disdain to treat.

" C'etait vers la fin de mai 1855, dans un des sites les plus ignores des immenses prairies du Far-West, a peu de distance du Rio Colorado del Norte, que les tribus indiennes de ces parages nomment, dans leur langage image, le fleuve sans fin aux lames d'or. Il faisait une nuit profonde. La lune aux deux tiers de sa course montrait, a travers les hautes branches des arbres, sa face blafarde, dont ne s'echappaient qu'avec peine de minces rayons d'une lumiere tremblotante qui ne laissait distinguer que vaguement les accidents d'un paysage abrupte et severe. Il n'y avait pas un souffle dans l'air, pas une etoile au ciel. Un silence de mort planait sur le desert. Silence interrompu seulement a de longs intervalles par les glapissements saccades des coyotes en quete d'une proie, ou les miaulements ironiques de la panthere et du jaguar a l'abreuvoir..."

I Sur l'eau Par une brûlante journée du mois d'août 1862 un petit steamer sillonnait paisiblement les eaux brunes du Minnesota. On pouvait voir entassés, pêle-mêle sur le pont, hommes, femmes, enfants, caisses, malles, paquets, et les mille inutilités indispensables à l'émigrant, au voyageur. Les bordages du paquebot étaient couronnés d'une galerie mouvante de têtes agitées, qui toutes se penchaient curieusement pour mieux voir la contrée nouvelle qu'on allait traverser.

Les bandits de l'Arizona est l'un des derniers romans de Gustave Aimard (1818-1883), dont la specialite etait les romans de l'Ouest americain. Aussi populaire, en son temps, qu'Eugene Sue et Paul Feval, il a ecrit une soixante de romans. Vers la fin de sa vie, pourtant, la vogue de ces romans de l'Ouest s'estompe, et Aimard, meprise de l'elite et des universitaires, tombe dans un certain oubli. Les bandits de l'Arizona a paru pour la premiere fois en 1881, chez Bleriot, a Paris."

I À l'Occident La civilisation est animée d'une force immense qui la pousse à une expansion sans limite; comme la vapeur impatiente que soulève une ardente flamme, elle est toujours en ébullition, prête à se répandre hors des limites connues. La civilisation est le mouvement perpétuel de l'humanité, tou-jours à la recherche de l'infini. Mais, sur son passage, elle laisse des traces, souvent misérables ou sanglantes, - épaves ballottées sur l'Océan du destin; - elle détruit en créant; elle fait des ruines en consolidant son édifice; elle engloutit quiconque veut lutter avec elle.

America, a land not yet thoroughly explored, and whose immense savannahs and gloomy virgin forests conceal so many mysterious secrets and unknown dramas, sees at this moment all eyes fixed upon her, for everyone is eager to know the strange customs of the semi-civilized Indians and the semi-savage Europeans who people the vast solitudes of that continent; for in the age of transformation in which we live, they alone have remained stationary, contending inch by inch against the civilization which invades and drives them back on all sides, and guarding with a religious obstinacy the faith, manners, and customs of their fathers-curious manners, full of interest, which require to be studied carefully and closely to be understood.

The present volume of GUSTAVE AIMARD's works is a continuation of the "Indian Chief," and conclusion of the series comprising that work, the "Gold Seekers," and the "Tiger Slayer." At the present moment, when we are engaged in a war with Mexico, I feel assured that the extraordinary and startling descriptions given in this volume of the social condition and mode of life in the capital of that country will be read with universal gratification; for I can assert confidently that; no previous writer has ever produced such a graphic and truthful account of a city with which the illustrated papers will soon make us thoroughly acquainted.

All the wood rangers have noticed, with reference to the immense virgin forests which still cover a considerable extent of the soil of the New World, that, to the man who attempts to penetrate into one of these mysterious retreats which the hand of man has not yet deformed, and which preserve intact the sublime stamp which Deity has imprinted on them, the first steps offer almost insurmountable difficulties, which are gradually smoothed down more and more, and after a little while almost entirely disappear. It is as if Nature had desired to defend by a belt of thorns and spikes the mysterious shades of these aged forests, in which her most secret arcana are carried out.
