Ancient Civilization in Arizona.

Though Arizona is the least known of our
Territories, it is undoubtedly the oldest farm
ing country on the continent. While the
land OF the pilgrim rejoiced in it primitive
forests and rocks, and the groves Of Penn
were untouched by the white mans axe;
long before John Smith originated the beau
tltul fiction of ''the Indian maid apdo the
gallant knight" or De Soto started for ''the
father of the waters /" Arizona was fpeopled
by an intelligent ana industrious race, and
Der valleys bloomed with the cul tiva ted
products of her rich land and varied climate.
Along the ''Rio Puerco of the West" we
found the ruined homes, and dry .acquias,
where the skill Of the architect engineer
were brought to the aid of the farmer oar
The Carisso and Lithodendrou are olined
with mounds and wales. and the still fertile
bottoms marked by untitled bitches, but the
landscape IS lifaless aud dreary, abandoned
even by the savages, whose ancestors under
some fierce Iauiefane drove out Or annihi-
lated the civilized race that once gave life
and beauty to these valleys. So with the
Colorado Chiquito and the garden spot of
the San Francisco They speak Of a past
greatness, and suggest former productive
ness. Every bill approaching Prescott is
marked by ruins, and the banks of every
stream speak of past agricultural labor
Between the Salinas and GiIa there is vast
extent Of the most fertile land. According
to Lieut.. Grant, one acquia, forty feet wide
by ten in depth, leading from the Salinas,
served to water 500, 900 acres where now
there is not one foot under cultivation
though the soil retains its original fertility
But through the dark ness thst has 50 long
enshrouded this fair land, the light is already
breaking, and future awaits her, far sur
passing her former greatness '

KENosHA, WISCONSIN, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 49, 1868.
Terrible Case of Exposure and Death from
Freezing.

We take the following from the Deseret
/ (Utah) HeWs, of the 18th ultimo;
On Saturday December 29,a young man,
named John Lee started on foot from this
city to go to Heber City. On the Tuesday
/ following he was at William Kimballs and
started from that place to go over the
mountains. A heavy suow storm coming
on, he lost his way in the binding drift, and
| Travelled in the snow from Tuesday until
Saturday. when exhausted nature could en-
dure no more, and he sank down. Think
ing that he was going to die, he sought q
hole where be could lie and not be exposed
in his last moments, as he would be on the
level snow. Here he was covered by the
snow drift, the storm continuing until he
was completely buried ii, how deep be- did
not know, but believed there vas about five
feet Of snow over him. "aT.f aaa if'
In a state partial unconsciousness. he
lay until Tuesday morning, he afterwards
learned, when he thought he saw the sun
rising, and with the thought came hope and
q desire to dig himself out. He had on
two hickory shirts. and two heavy coats,
but in his efforts to free himself from the
snowy tomb in which he was buried, his
clothes were worn through, and the skin
and part Of the flesh were torn off his ell
bows. AS he got bis head above the snow
he saw man coming down from the noun
tains, to whom be made signals aud this
person, young man named Galloway, from
Rhoads' Valley, came to him and helped
him out. Galloway then started for the
nearest house at Hailstone's rancho, some
three miles off, for assistance He found
some teams from Heber City, and Lee hav-
lug got down to the road where sleigh
could get to him, one of them took him on;
but horse team soon after passing he was
taken by it to the fort at Heber City. Du-
ring all of the time Of his exposure from
leaving Kimball's he had been without food
1t was nearly shutdown when he was got
down to the road, and the air was very cold |
When he reached Heber City it was found
that bis arms and legs were frozen and,
though living when Bro. Murdoch left, his
recovery was considered almost hopeless
The sequel is mournful one with regard |
This young man. in company
with another man, having an OK team, had
been going over the mountains to Rhoads
Valley. and had camped the night previ-
GUS in the mountains. They had with them
an odd OK, which had given o!;t, and young
Galloway was going down with little hay
to seek for it when he was sean by Lee.
His companion started not knowing but
Galloway would soon overtake him, and
wondering what detained him until he
reached his destination. When Lee had
put ia the team. Galloway started for
Rhoads' Valley, distance of ten or twelve
miles, and was found the following morn
alg within two miles Of tue settlement, fro
Zen to death.
Both are spoken of as excellent young
men, Leo being about II years of age spare
made, and wiry, Galloway, being about g.
3touter made, and, as the end showed, not
capable of so much endurance.

FEED RooTs TO HoRsEs. 1t is probable
that all our domestic animals, in the origi-
naI condition, we're located IL climates that
would afford them food throughout the en-
tire year, and that they were endowed with
the power of collecting that food, as our
cows aud horses do in the summer season
They would not be able to do this in New
England climate, as the moose and reindeer
do; 80 that they are in artificial condition,
in some degree, and this condition ought to
be taken into consideration in our modes of
feeding them.
1t seems to be contrary to their nature
for horses to be kept any great length Of
time upon dry hay and grain, and without
some tender AID juicy food to fill the place,
as nearly as possible, Of green and sQculent
grass
This may be done in some measure by
the use of roots These will serve, as does
the grass, to keep the digestive organs IN
heaithfnl action. Every horse owner will
find it economical to h51pseIf to feed roots of
some kind literally to his horses, as under
such treatment they viii retain their health
aud strength, last longer, and thus be able
to do him more service than when kept ex-
clusvely Oh dry food
Livery stable keepers understand this, and
they purchase larger portion Of the roots
which are raised than the farmer ought to
spare; though the farmer has the adyan-
tage Of allowing his horses to feed upon
green food during portion of the year.
Among the roots, carrots are considered the
best for horses but they will eat potatoes,
mangod wurtzels, beets, parsnips, and tur-
nips, by commencing with each in very
small quantities. Their use will prove
cheaper than to confine horses to dry food
entirely. -RUral Amerjcan
