to keep it out of the waste basket |;
On the Both of October, past,
we turned our faces to the set

and big hopes for what the future
might bring us. We stopped n

whittlings, and they are one class
of people who always make their
whereabouts known, provided
there are any empty dry goods
boxes around. But the sun shone
out from behind bank of mist
and warned us that we had our
hands in the boss's pocket. So,
we bid hasty good bye and
the last we saw of the pleas
ant little town was the court
house spire, which seemed to look
over the hills to see if we were on
the move yet. So, looking on
the ever changing landscape, time
fled swiftly Ivy, and the next place

in Mr. Shannon's case, but he
has been here II long time. and if

would be something new for us
to look upon at the next turn OF
the canyon. down which our
horses trotted so nimbly. SO,
being blessed with considerable
more luck than beauty, we were,
at length richly rewarded, by
looking to our left, as we wound
slowly around the base of large
mountain. Away down in the
valley, moving like great snake,
we beheld the Pecos river, fenced
in on all sides by such noun
tains as are only to he seen on
the Pecos river, looking little
further up we beheld the little
town of Sheffield, situated on II
nice piece of table land, about
one mile from the river, to the
west. Here orr hearts were made
heavy by the fact that out of II
population of sixty or seventy
five inhabitants, nine were con-
fined to their beds with slow
fever. Among the sick were Rev.

other reason, because it is under the
ban of the law. There are thousands
