The west branch of this river is rather a torrent than a river. As it is buried among rude mountains, it is very rapid. The Indians, however, go down in their canoes at high water. From Shamokin to the Chesapeake Bay, the Susquehanna has rapids which are met with at the chains of mountains which run east and west throughout the English possessions.

But the interposition of the Loup and Iroquois Indians, has hitherto prevented them from forming establishments in that quarter. Before the last war they had pressed up as far as near Theaogen, which the Indians made them abandon, and as far up as below the Juniata valley, which is beautiful and fertile. But they were obliged ro retire from this also.1 1The English have returned in force since the time when M.
