THE Valley OF DEATH.

We have seen occasional references,
for many years past, to valley in Cali
fOrnia known as the Valley of Death.
But we now have a more detailed ac-
count of the singular locality than any
yet published. Gen. Palmer, of the Pa
cific Railroad, f. D., has recently been
engaged in surveying a route to the
Pacific.
One of his camps was located on the
Mohave river, California; from which
Death Valley was distant only some
eighty miles. One of the Generals en-
gineers-Mr. Spears-is quite familiar
with the locality, and has furnished the
following interesting report of its most
striking characteristics and peculiarities.
We annex synopsis of his report:
The Valley. of Death is said to be
lower than the level of the sea, and is
entirely destitute of water. 1t is fifty
miles long, by thirty in breadth, and
save at two points, wholly encircled by
mountains, up whose steep sides none
but expert climbers can ascend. 1t is de-
void of vegetation, and the shadow of
bird or wild beast never darkened its
white, glaring sand.
In the early days trains of emigrants
bound for California passed, under the
direction of guides, to the south of
Death Valley, by what is now known
year 1850, large train, with some 800
emigrants, mostly from Illinois and
Missouri, came south from Salt Lake,
guided by a Mormon. When near Death
Valley dissent broke out in part of
the train. and tWenty-One families came
to the conclusion that the Mormon knew
nothing about the country, so they ap-
pointed one of their number a leader.
and broke off from the main party.
This leader determined to turn due
| west, so with the people and f1ocks he
travelled for three days, and then de-
scended into the broad valley, whose
treacherous mirage promised water.
They reached the center, but only the
white glaring sand, bounded by the
scorched peaks, met their gaze on every
! hand. Around the valley they wander
ed, and one by one the men died, and
| the painting fiocks stretched themselves
in death under the hot sun. Then the
children, crying for water, died at their
mothers breasts, and with swollen
! tongues and burning Vitals the mothers
! followed. Wagon after wagon was
abandoned, and strong men tottered,
and raved and died.
| After a weeks wandering, dozen
survivors found some water in the hol-
| low of rock in the mountains. Ii
| lasted butsa short time, then all perish
ed but two, who, through some mirac-
ulous means got out of the valley and
! followed the trail of their former COM
panions. Eighty-seven persons, with
hundreds of animals, persisted in this
fearful place, and since then the name
of Death Valley has been.applied to it

In town in Maine, lived a man who,

mourning for three wives. In the course
of time fourth was brought home |;
and in the course of her clearing up
and putting things to rights, she found
in the attic long piece of old board,
and was about launching it out of the
window, when little Sallie interposed,
and said, ..Ohi don't, mamma, that is
the board papa lays his wives on, and
he wants to save it!" Nevertheless,
