• is dated— -
"TAGS, New:Mexico, Jan. 27, 1849,
"I. write to you from the house of our good
friend Carson. This morning a cop of apace.
'late was brought to me while in bed. To an
overworn, overworked, fatigued and starving
traveller, these littkeluxurieeof the world offer
an interest which In your comfortable home it
is not glissade for you to conceive.
" I have now the unrileasant task of telling
you how I came hare. I had much rather
speak of the future, (with plans for which I am
already occupied,) for the mind turns from the
amines I have witnessed and the suffelings wo
have endured; but aa clear inforination is due
to you) and to your father still more, I give
,you the story now instead of waiting do tell it
to you in California; but. I write in the great
hope that you will not receive this letter. When
it reaches Washington you may be on your way
to California.'
" Former letters will' have'' Made you ac
quainted with our-progress as far as Bent's
Fort., and, from report, you will have hoard the
circumstances'of our departure from theiFppee.
Pueblo, near the head of the Arkansds. , We
left that place on the 25th of. November with '
Upwards of one hundred 'good mules, and one
hundred and thirty bushels of 'shelled corn, in.
tended to "support outaniinals in the deep snows
• of the high mountains and down to the lower .
parts of the Grand river tributaries, where usu
ally the snow forms no cbeta* to winter tra
velling. At Pueblo I had engaged as a guide
en old trapper, well known as Rill Williams,
and who had spent 'eine twenty-five years of
hia. life in trapping in verities:parts of the Rocky
- Mountains.
"The error oreur expedition wits commi Z tt ed
in engaging this man. lie proved never to
have known, or entirely to have forgotten, the
whole country through which we were to puss.
We occupied, after passing the mountains,
more than half a month in making the progress
of a few days, blundering along a torturous
course, through, deep snow, which already be
gan to choke up the passes, and waisting our'
time in searching dui way. The 11th of De
cember we fouhd ourselves at the mouth of the
Rio del Norte cannon, where - - that river issues ,
front the Sierra San Juan—one of the highest,
most rugged, and impracticable of all the Rocky I
mountain Ranges, inaccessible to:trapper's and
hunters even in summer. - Aciress-the point of
thi. , elevated range our guide conducted us;
and, haying 01111 great confidence in this man's
• lurnoilidge, we pressed onward with fatal reso
lution. tven along the river bottoms the snow
was 'already breast deep for the mules, and
fulling frequently in the valley and almost con
stantly on the mountains. The cold was ex.
traordinary. The warmest hours of the day
(between one and two) the thermometer (Fah
renheit) stood; in the shade of a Area:trunk ? , at
acre; and that was a favorable day, the sun
shining and a moderate breeze. Judge of the
nights and the storms!
- We pressed up towards the summit; the
.snow deepening as'we rose, and q in four or five
days of this struggling and climbing, all on
foot, we reached the naked ridges, which lie
above the line of the timbered region, and whiefi
form the dividing heights between the. Atlantic
and Pacific Oceans. Along these naked heights
it storms all winteriand'ilie raging winds sweep
across them with remorseless fury. - On our
first attempt to cross we encountered a pouderie,
—(dry snow driven thick through 'the air by
violent wind, and in which objects are visible
only at 'short distance)—and were driven back,
haying some ton ort.welve,nten variously frozen
—face, hands, or feet.,The guide came near ,
being frozen to death here, and dead mules,
were !Arcady lying about:the camp fires. Mean'.
time it snowed steadily. .Tfie next day (Da
combo! —) we. renewed the attempt to scale
the Bo.arnit, and' were more fortunate, as it_
then seemed. Making mauls, and beating down
a road or trench through the deep snow, we
forced the ascent in defiance of the driving
pottelirie;'crointed the Crest; detended a, little,
and encamped immediately below in the edge of
the timbered region. .The trail showdd as if a
defeated, party bad passed by—packs,•pack
saddles; scattered articles of clothing, and dead
' mules: strewed along. We were encamped
about twelve thousand feet above the level of ,
the lea. Westward the country was buried
snow: The storm Continued. All movement
wits paralyzed. To advance with the expedition ;
was impossible; to get back impossible. Our
fate stood revealed. • We were overtaken by
sudden and inevitable ruin. The poor animals
were to go first. The only places where grass
could be had were the extreme summits of the
Sieve, where the sweeping winds kept the
' A icmsky ground bare, and 'where the men could
, :not live. Below in the limbered region, the
-„,„--poor animals could not get atidbt, the snow be.
' - ttg , deep enough to bury them alive. It was
' Ind antly apparent that we should lose every
. one. I took my restitution immediately, and
determined to moron the mountain hams to the
valley of the Rio Eta Norte, dragging or packing
--lbw-baggage _ hy_men._ Withgreat• labor the I
baggage was transported across the creatfolhiT
head springs of a tittle stream" leading to the 1
"'main river. ' A: few days'were euffielent to des

They generally 60'1)1'1(1(11a together ; and, as
they froze, one would be seen to tumble down
Ind disappear under, the driving snow. Some
times they, would break off and milt down to.
wards the timber,till stopped by the deep snow.

days, I set rff down the river with .a. small
party, consisting of f.lndeyi his young neph

We carried our arms and provisions, for two
or three days. In the camp (lelt under, the

'On the second day after leaving the camp
We came upon a fresh trail of Indians—two
lodges with a considerable number of ant
mats; : This-did not, lessee our uneasiness
for our long absent people. The Indian trail
where we fell upon it, turned - and went
down the river, and we followed it. On the
filth day (after leaving the camp) we sur f

He proved to be a Utah, son of a Grand Riv

he behaved towards us in a friendly manner.
We encamped near them at night. By a
present of a rifle; my two blankets, and oth

as a guide to the Linde Rio Colorado settle

were miserably -door, and could• only' get
along at a slow walk. On the next day (the
'sixth cif our prowess) we left the Itulian
lodges late and travelled only some six or
seven miles. About sunset we discovered

adjourned on Wednesday last: The policy of
the new Court wee sufficiently shown, how.

satisfactory proof that it will be a "terror to
evil-doers." Three lawless young' men, con.
vieted of en outrageous street brawl; were men- ,
Winced to. three months in the county prison. 1
A number of petitions .for Tavern' Lie - eine
were refused by the Court, some of them on .
account of Their character, and ethers'from
having failed to observe the legal requirements
in their application. The'Court intimated that
Whi fertile:old and .well kept public houses bad
nothing to fear, its face would be sternly act
against those which are found to be unneces.
sary and improperly kept, and against any
Increase of public houses beyond the pub c
necessity. The course of the Conte in this
matter has elicited very general and strong ,
expressions of approbation.
