trouble in case or two, but would be will
ing to wager Wall street against wormy
apple that in twelve cases out of q dozen
the main fault was not with the Mexican
officials.
The Boca Grande and the Casas Grandes
are the same river, like the Wind river and
Big Horn in our own country, the two
changing names at certain point. Better
speaking, they have the same river bed,
for in the dryeSt seasons the Casas
Grandes sinks and reappears further
down as the Boca Grande, the two streams
being really identical most of the time,
however, both of them emptying into the
great "sInk" known as Laguua Guzmau.
The scenery along the Boca Grande is
picturesque, yet somewhat peculiar. The
river bottom is fat, very wide and rich in
soil, but on the TANKS rise the Mexican
mountains sheer out of the plains To the
west are the Sierra Madres yet covered
with snow on the highest peaks, making
some OF the most beautiful landscapes
have ever seen as viewed from the differ
emit points presented.
Some OF these ridges were ornamented
with groupings of cactus of the oQuetiQd
variety, If their presence can be called an
ornament. Imagine dozen fishing rods
from ten TO fifteen feet in length on an av-
erage and all radiating out from a central
point like a bouquet OF bayonets, each rod
holding q hundred spikes throughout its
length, and one will have a dim idea of q
bunch Of oglsetila cactus, that can be very
much cleared By referring 10 the accocl-
panylng Illustration. These punches seem
to prefer growing along the rocky crests in
rows of tolerable regularity that to person
ct distance lends something OF an idea OF
the works ofhuman hands.
But this whole southwest, or rather the
northwest, from Mexican stand point, IS
q country of deceptive appearances. Hun
dreds of my readers have probably trav-
eled over the Santa Fe railroad as it courses
through the Rio Grande valley, and from
their stand-p point Of grassy, pleasant look
ing country in the East, have wondered
what this cherries area of sand and sage
brush could ever be put to; yet in this val
lev is farm of tweptY-two acres for which

s60, 900 has been fatty refused, not one cent
of its value being in its proximity to some
other place, as the valuable little farms
around our great Eastern cities, but purely
in what it can produce. At Deming, In New
Mexico, two of the leading citizens have
started an experimental farm Of few acres
simply to show intending cultivators of the
soil what can be done, for certainly the
prospect of production is dreary enough to
the casual observer; and if there is any
thing il the maxim that " seeing is bellev-
ing" Deming ought to be rich farming
country.
All of the arguments produced in the
United States Congress could not convince
an Eastern farmer that the Mimbres river
flowed under Deming, or if it did that it
must be measured in miles and not in feet,

and much exertion to forco tho, way to the

ing flags and handkerchiefs. Flowers fell in
tho streets In constant showers and were dis
played in every kind OF device The name
Of Washington was presented In flowers,
flags and evergreena At his house in Frank
lin square Washington spent the remainder
of the day, from P. m. to lato bedtime, In
receiving visitors and congratulations OF for
eign minister's political characters, public
bodies and private citizens Of distinction. In
tho evening the entire city was brilliantly IL
Illuminated.
All this timo the city was beihg filled with
people from every part Of the adjoining coun.
try and from New England. New York had
never before had such multitude. Old let
tors lately resurrected give amusing accounts
OF the difficulty of securing lodgings, OF til,
breaking down OF carriages and delays nnd
| hindernnccs on account OF the bad ROADS OF
that day. All the houses In tho city wert
soon filled and tents were pitched in vacan
lots.

At the same time John Adams was ap-
preaching with somewhat less state from
New England, and on tho Goth Of April be

horse OF Westchester county, and from

where he was introduced US vice president Of
the United States and took the oath OF ofl!on.
