""'H paraln- through any portion of the cOun
 try, populated by the MeXicaus-whcther if i.
 owned by the United States, or uot-be must
 look upon all McNicans in the light of enemies
 flor they are naturally so There are many
 causes for this, of which it is unnecessary here

 On the route to Santa Fe. you pass hundreds of heaps of small stones, which have been piled up to mark the burial places of those who have been killed in battle and many who have been murdered by the ruthless savage, and treach. er0us Mexican Some of these moands denote the burial places of victims. who have been siain for years upon years, that have long since passed away It is considered sacrilege for any one to despoiI them of a single stone. and the reIigiously superstitious Mexican, and Christianized Indian, when passing, always adds another stone, to the already accumulated heap. As many as twenty and even fifty of these mounds are seen at one place. These spots are said to mark the resting places of braves and warriors who fell in battle with hostile and opposing tribes. Occasionally wooden cross is also erected, to denote the burial place Of murdered Mexican.

D All the time our coniao was going on with the Governor thought l could perceive knowing eor in the eye of Maj ". a gentleman who got into the stage near Fort Craig, and who lived within a few miles of the village. became much better acquainted with the Major afterward, and found him to be terrible luiz and punster.
