Paely royed over, richly hung with verdant 70

lrouhd unsuited to a picture. B1t for the green
ashes 'Se pitched upon. tie previous days run
aDg ffe must have destroyed every vestigc Of
grass Providcntially spared to suticiency for the

Iiere is camping ground on the West side OF the
Eiver, evidently occupied by several hundred In.
Eians, as the small smoke fire holes ALWAYS indi-

laakes have not been seen since we left Leona,
t7hen and previously their death.aYerted danger,

b, as in one case with us, bis awakening to find
L5lded up asleep in his blankets this deadly sting
Eng reptile.
Still no rain which for grass would be God
Blspd; but then have TO the wide and
Eiuong current of the Pecos and anxiously look
onward with dread on the one hand lest fire may
Eaye burned ahead all fodder for the beasts ; on
sae other hand to the drift eve. tue swelling wa

There has not been rain on the Rio Grande
snoe last May twelvemonth but through its
hndy banks the water OF the river is always per-
plating to noursh the low adjacent lands, which
BE ever of value when all else in some seasons
nearly worthless.

hde of the Pecos by which | shall write
| We are still increasingly occupied at this Sur
Esy. which we shall continue up to Ell Paso.
