Err,
On the 10th of last month, having OPEN
ed the boundary between the u. States and
bis Catholic majesty, from the Mississippi
river to the thin pine country, we ceased
carrying the line on In that accurate, scien-
tific manner in which it was begun, and from
the end of the line, designatedin the report
which accompanies this, the work will gene
rally be done with a common surveying com
pass, and corrected at the different naviea-
bic water courses which it may happen to
cross.
The line mentioned In the report is OPEN
ed sixty feet wide, and passes through a coun-
try impenetrable to any but Americans
The labor has been equal to what would, in
our country, have opened at least one hun
dred miles. The business it is evident, will
not go on with that rapidity we could wish !;
nothing however will be wanting ON our part,
and think it will be complicated the ensu-
ne season Governor GayOso has evident
,ay been brought intoa cooperation very re-
iuctantly, and certainly has no desire of hav-
ing itpushed. Mr.. Power, gentleman well
known for his intIigues in Kentucky, and o.
