respondent, and published by you, giving
an account of the death of an orphan girl.
IL years old, from cruel treatment receiv-
ell at the hands of the adopted mother.
Though no names were given By the cor
respondent the charge rests quite as
heavily upon us as if names were given.
And new as husband of the woman who
it is intimated has been so cruel, desire
to state that the whole article has no
foundation in truth whatever.
First. 1t is not true that the child WAS
cruelty beaten.
Second. 1t is not true that the child was
adopted
Third. 1t is not true that she was fear
fully bruised.
Fourth. 1t is not true that the Coro-
ncr upon any prctext refused to do any,
thing.
rHtn. IL 10 not true that she was buried
in paupers coffin.
The facts re these: The child was
taken to the house of the undersigned
one year ago, and kindly cared for, and
loved as one of the family When found
at the barn, about 10 o'clock on the day
she died, physician was immediately
sent for, who gave ii as his opinion thai
that the child had taken fit. | deem i
unnecessary to give full statement of al
circumstances at the time, being willing
that the public should know W no we are
and ready at any time to give full, and
we trust satisfactory, detail of all til,

From the Far West.

The following is from 4. S. E., CORES
pondent of the gazette:
ROCKY MOUNTAINS, July 1S.-Our trir
thus far has been pleasant, quite as mucf
so as we could have anticipated. OuI
train is composed of two locomotives
tenders, baggage cars and eight Pullman
Palace cars, with about 2l0 excursionist,
from % different States. Fortunately
our car is only about half full, giving II,
plenty of room so necessary for comfort
and the most of these are from our State

In coming up the Platte Valley, we saw
immense herds of cattle grazing. They
were mostly Texas cattle. Occasionally
we saw antelopes. BY the way, speaking
of antelopes, at some of the watering sta
rions We greatly enjoyed the delicious an
telope steaks. The first was at Rumsey's
in Omaha, where can assure westward
bound travellers they will find that p. r.

as No. hotel keeper.
This Rocky Mountain range or pass is
very singular to us. We almost imper-

and then all day pass over country
whose general outline seems level with
rolling hills similar to the general feat.
ures of Iowa, as far as the face ofthe coun-
try is concerned.
But what desolation on the very top ol
this Rocky Mountain range. For 20C
miles or more it is vast plain, the
ground looking as if baked in an oven.
Not tree or shrub or spear of green
grass or anything else of the kind, except
the ever present sage brush, and this in
that desolate region only grows from six
to eighteen inches high.
On the Alleghenies or Alps, at this
height, we see rocks, ur trees, or green
shrubbery pleasing to the eye, but here
for hour after hour, all day, we are passing
over this alkaline desert, at times our
eyes smarting from the effect of the alkali
in the dust.
1 speak of this feature of the Rocky
Mountain pass, as l saw no one of our
party but was surprised to find this on the
highest part of the pass, and that for so
great distance each way
This day, over the divide, at an altitude
all day of from 5000 TO 1000 feet, was our
hottest days travel thus far, but even here
we congratulated our happy situation
to that of the hundreds of poor
emigrants that have suffered sll manner of
hardships in toiling over these inhospita-
ble tracks of desert
