K. M'KENZIE, of the Am. Fur Company, Mouth of Yellow Stone. ----*---- I have examined a series of paintings by Mr. Catlin, representing _Indian Buffalo Hunts, Landscapes, &c._; and from an acquaintance of twenty-seven years with such scenes as are represented, I feel qualified to judge them, and do unhesitatingly pronounce them good and unexaggerated representations.
