was sickened at seeing the great destruc-
ton of property, viz: wagons, carriages
and buggies, dead horses, mules, and
cattle, whose carcasses lie thick all over
the ground, in state of preservation, the
skins and a good deal of the flesh being
dried to the bones-the water, marshes,
and air being sostrongly yimpregnated with
alkali that it has atendency to keep off
the devouring insects and birds of prey.
But the worst is not half told yet; to see
every two or three hundred yards agrave,
where father, mother, brother, or sister,
has been buried but ere the train is out
of sight the corpse is disinterred by the
prowling wolf or the savage lndian-the
bones to bleach upon the great American
desert. Although / am rather hardened
sinner, yet when l saw the scene as just
described l could not refrain from she'd
ding tears, and feeling myself more sub
missive to that powerful God who rules
the universe"
