THE PACIFIC RAILROAD,

The single serious objection to tue Wbippiei
route, for railroad from The Rio Greude TO the
Pacific. is removed By Colonel Chayez's cutoff,
from Leroux' Fork 90 the Little Colorado to
Inc great Colorado and the Pacific. BY this the
rough country about the San Francisco Noun
tain and west Of 1t, where Whppe deriated 20
the soulh, aud Beale to the north, is entirely
avoided, while for wood aud water the cutoff Is
equal to any district farther north. Moreover
the most important points, at present, upon tue
Colorado and in southern California, are in its
direct line. Going from here to the mouth Of
Bill Williams Fork or 10 La Psz, aud thence TO
Sac BeFasdiae and Los Angeles, IL would reach
the Pacific north OF the Saith parallel II turned
from the Colorado, north through Walkers Pass,
and from there down the Nan Joaquin valley to
Sac Francisco, it soud even then oe better 10
follow the cutoff from Lerosx's Fork. through
this country than 10 go by the Noqui villages,
and north Of the San Francisco Mountain, as
Leroux. and we believe Beale, proposed.
Will Colonel Perea and others 10 Congress,
who are familiar with the Whippie route, and
this new and important improvement upon II,
from Leronxs Fork westward, urge it upon the
special committe upon the Pacific Railroad
The people OF New Mexico and of California

best possible way from the Rio Grande to the
Pacific. For the accommodation OF the com
msrce of both the East and the West; for the
most thorough aud speedy development q! the

When the daylight died away,

Climbed his spirit higher still.

Folding up tho tent Of life,
He had gone beyond our strife
lie was at the tattoo blown
BY the bugles round the Throne,
Far beyond this Earth's control,
Where archangcls call the roll,
And the Stars like calcium lights,
Guard lest fiends should storm the heights.
Knapsack he had laid aside
For state beatilied.
Haversaek and canteen lay,
Thrown BY Deathls Fagine away
For he heard the hanquet-call
Through the depth OF ether fall.
Hung equipments OIL a rack,
Lay his mushtt on the stack.
Death had whispered in his car
Countersign that passed him clear.
To him were new weapons given
From the 4rmory Of Heaven.

Marched Inc mp the streets Of light
Where the clustering tents are spread,
