Further and Final Accounts.

We resume the extracts from Col. FRE-

brief description OF the localities made memo

who have not recent maps at hand.
It is known that the great Rocky Noun.
tain chain a general direction north and south
sends out a branch towards the southeast
from between the heads OF the Arkansas and
the Rio del Norte; and This branch forms the
dividing ridge between the upper valleys of
these Two rivers, and between the head-waiers
of the Red Rirer and Del Nor,e and having
accomplished these purposes it subsidies and
disappears in the plains OF Texas. The highest
part of this branch chain, and the governing
object in it TO travellers, are The Spanish
Peaks first made known to American geo.
araphy by the then young Lieutenant Pike.
These Peaks are about in north latitude 81.
degrees, and west longitude from London los
degrees, and about on line longi'udinally
with the Pueblos of the Upper Arkansas, dis
liant from them half a degree, and in sight.
They are seen at "A grea, distance, and are
guiding objects TO travellers. The road to
Santa Fe pusses below these Peaks, and eros
