Difficult Surveying.

Dec. 30, deputy y-surveyor T. F. White left Tucson with working party and out fit, under contract to carry line from the surveys at Kenyon Station to the Co., lorado River and to execute work in the vicinity of Yuma. He started at the southwest corner of township 5 south and west, and carried the first standard south of the Gila and Salt River base line, straight to the Colorado River without an offset, and in doing so encountered great hardships and narrowly escaped suffering, We'll let Mir. White tell the story of that piece of work in his own language, viz .
 We first crossed the Sierra Colorado, a very rough but narrow range, immediate ly west of our starting point The Clla River was crossed about four miles below Burlz's station, and something over twenty miles on the line. After crossing the GIia, we tTaVerSed, l suppose, one o1 the most deSOlate portions of Arizona, until we reached the Colorado river. Fifty-four miles on the line, we entered the Castle Dome range, and did not finally leave ltuntil we had advanced sixteen miles further. This range was very rough and broken, being where we crossed it, confused masses Of volcanic rock thrown up m every con ceivable form that has no design. We had to supply ourselves with water from the Gila, and as no wagon could travel over the line we surveyed, it had to be packed on animals. Some of the water we car ried in this way for nearly fifty miles; and as but limited supply could thus be car ried, our animals suffered much from thirst. At one time, when 1t seemed doubtful if we could proceed further on account of the great distance we were get ting from water and the uncertainty as to when we would reach the Colorado, we discovered a little pool of water in the rocks, collected there from the last rains. The discovery Of a mine of gold could not have given us greater delight. We nlled up our canteenS and gave the animals hearty drink. When 1 sent back the packer in the morning to get full supply at the last moment, he found It gone, all soaked away and evapOrated during the night But what we did get from it, saved the men from much possible suffering, and carried us through to the Colorado. If it had not been for the discovery of this little pool of rain-Water, l fear we should have been obliged to turn back. The region we traverSed too furnished nothing for an animal to eat, from the time we left the Gila until we reached the Colorado, a distance Of over sixty miles, and we kept our animals from starving by giving them little flour mixed in water.HWe SurInOunteG all the difficu ties which beSet our progress and carried the line through successfully; but it was only done by the greatest eXertiOn of man and beast, and have reason 10 congratulate myself on having reliable and faithful men, and most hardy animals.
