dom is not east of the Gate instead of
west, as we had number of hot springs
before we reached there, which we had
no particu N use fo-, and now we found
this delightfully."- refreshing, clear ice,
which is 30 desirable of hot day. We
travelled eighteen miles during the fore.
noon, and stopped on the Sweetwater for
noon. We crossed the river, assembled q
high rocky hill to avoid cafion, where
the Sweetwater passes between two steep
bluffs. We crossed the river (or as it is
down to creek here) twice and camped,
having travelled twenty eight miles.
We had the mystery of the night be-
fore explained here by seeing the noun
tain sheep jumping from ledge to ledge
and sometimes hundreds of feet from a
ledge above to one below, alighting on
their heads. There had evidently a
drove of them crossed the river going
south onto the plains which were mis-.
taken for mules crossing the river. The
next alarm was some frisky fellow prac-
ticing on the Cliffs anyway we were all
satisfied it was no practical joke.
1t was fearfully cold on the night of
Sunday, June 18th, ice forming half an
inch thick. There having been Indians
about here our mules would not eat the
grass, and they were scared, just ready
to catch any sound and stampede. 1t is
strange how fearful Spanish mule is of
an Indian or wolf. We had to secure
our mules near the wagons and keep up
a fire 30 they could see, and we put on
double guards outside of the light
of the fire 30 as to be sure the
Indians did not get in close range.
We assembled high hill, which was
exceedingly rocky; crossed a branch of
the Sweetwater, which we called Straw
berry creek, several times during the
day Sometimes it was swampy, mar
row bottoms, sometimes hills or rocks,

til the principal and interest debt shall
have been fully paid.
Section provides for the ascertain
ment of the present amount OF the debt
of the Central Pacific Railroad Company;
then for the payment of interest at the
rate of per centum per annum, payable
semi annually, and 80 much of the prin.
cip!e as shall result in the payment of
the entire debt in seventy-tiye years.
But in order to relieve the road from too
great burden during.the next ten years,
as it is necessary for it to make some ex-
tensive improvements, it capitalizas for
that time one-half of the two per cent. to
be paid.
The bill requires the mortgage of the
entire property Of the Central Pacific
Railroad Company, including some very
important roads in California, and also
by that section and subsequent one,
that the Southern Pacific Railroad Com
pany and Central Pacific shall make the
present lease subsisting between them
an additional security to the United
States for the payment of the debt.
Either of said companies may extend
payment or refund indebtedness prior to
the time required for payment by the
United States, to the extent f par
value of such first mortgage bonds, at q
rate of interest not to exceed per cent.
In the event OF any default for ninety
days in the payment of interest or prin-
cipal, as required by the act, the entire
debt shall Immediately mature.
The recording of the mortgage by the
Secretary OF the Treasury, In conformity
with the law of the various States and
Territories where the property is situated

Section Is provides for the repeal O

rights of the companies to acquire prop

SAN FRANCISCO, February 16.-f
special dispatch from Washington saws
1t is, of course, provided that the frs
mortgage of $25 900 900 on the Centra
Pacific held by private persons remain
as at present.
1t can be stated on authority that th
Southern Pacific people will not accep
the terms offered, and the battle will b.
fought out in Congress. A gentleman
high in railroad circles remarked: "Th
Government asks us to give our unaide'
lines as security, something they hav
not got now. We would rather abandon
the aided line from Ogden to Sacrs
mento, and let them fight it out with th
holders of the first mortgage than &C
cept such terms"
