COLORADO. How tho Rocky Mountains Really Appear ~Exaggorations jn Regard to Them, Prospective Mennonite Colonizatione-- Stock and Mining Intorests. The Newly-Discovered Copper-Mines, and Alie San Juan Mining Reglon. Oaxox Crry, Col., May 29, 1874, Taken singly or collsotively, whothor we look from boneath the cauvag-cover of o freight-wag- on, or from tho window of » palace-car,—rattllng along at tho rato of 40 miles an bour, THE ROOKY MOUNTAING aro s grand, robust, and lnspiring aight ; andyet thoro I8 a groat deal of soft, adolescent, verdant nonsonse said and written about thom. The popular opinion is, thnt they aro a successlon of stupondous peaks, aud wooded crags, and rocky ‘battlements, that coquette with the clouds, aud go towering up into tho szuro dopths boyoud,— " whoso summits aro covered with otornal suow, inuccersible alike to tho tourist's footsteps or englo’s wing. Kor this idea wo aro indebted, in & great mensure, to the old wrilers, who cov~ ered the mountains, tho Indian, and the buffalo withahalo of pootry and romanco; and the yorns and suporstitions of thoso clover frauds ‘have boen conflrmed and strongthened by the modern schaol of nowapaper-scribblors, including “Graco (roonwood" aud Mrs, Groatovor—two {etnrming fomalos, but who, unfortunately, bo- oamo intoxicated on Colorndo air tosuch o de- greo that thoy accopted the most Munchausonish talo s the words of truth and soborness. Wo bolievo that it has been remnrked before, but it will do to ropont ngain, that there is o atrong tendency in this Western country TO EXAGGERATE. 1 Thoso who &t tho East ware regarded as models of ivtogrity and truthfalness gonerally become the most accomplished in the art ; and tho most tromondous story ono over heard of the natural resources and future possibilities of Colorado was reeled off by s man who ofliciated for twonty years in Ltho capacity of Superintond- cnt fora Boston Sunday-school. A description at tho hands of ono of theso worthics is only an appulling collection of adjectives and in- terjections, “$torm-rent and cloud-cappod, mizhty, majestic, superlatively grand, veiled with Bnow and ice, with sun- Touma glowing athwart yawning fissures, nnd hideous precipices,”—theso are the storeo- typod terms to be found in ovory guide-hook or in tho wmemoranda-book of every immigration agont. g.\' ow, as I snid before, the mountains are grand and awo-inspiring enough, but no true travolor wr philospher would go into rapturcs at first right. A porson must becomo acquninted with thom, atudy them, travel over them, to approci- uto their mognitudo and rugged vasiness. The reality in so different from all preconceived ideas that tho first view of tho backbone of tho American Continont is apt to bring with it SOURCE OF DISAPPOINTMEST, Tike's Poak is & very reapectablo mound ; but, wending at Colorado Spriugs, it does not soem % bo worth making such & fues about, and, wero it not for the corona of clouds, it would bo linrd to believe that its venerablo Lead was 14,300 feot nenror heaven than salt water. And yetsuchis tho onso, If the plains mnintained 1 uniforin lovel with the ocean to the very bnse ol the Rockies, tho transition would be somo- thing startling; but, in renlity tho_ ascent Is commenced ut the Missouri River, and, when tho culminating point is reached,—whon the traveler stands upou tho very summit of tho inain range, and beholds streams flowivg to oach peean,—his eyo doos nck take him saniblo of nny great beight, Ho uotos, howover, fhio ab- wence of timbmr ; ho soes otonds and mints flont- ing below bim 'in the valley, with n thundor- shower thrown in by way of varioty; lis rospi- ration is difienlt; ‘and, with his noso and enrs bingling with the cold, the fact at Isst bocomes drilled juto the ndamnnt of his understanding that ho is up a good stop toward the tenith. THE PHYSICAL FEATUREH of the Rocky Monutain range have boen well de- reribea in tho last x'o‘)urt submitted by Irof. tHayden. In Central Colorado, the chsin propor s about 120 miles broad, mado up of tarce’lofty urallel rangos, runningjneatly north-northwest, Biuked by tvont plnticaus and groups of ponks, Between tho rauges lie the great olovatod hasins kuown as the * Parks.” The front or Colorado Range, which rives somowbat abruptly from the plums, e seon from Donver in a grand panorams 140 miles long.

Here Naturo can be scen in all hor pristine wildnoss. The valloya are thickly mwtted with Iuxuriant grags, affording au ivoxhauetible pasturago for stock: whila the ulear, sparkling streams that intersoct them aro silled mith trout, who will jump ,Lalf-way out of thoe water to grab the troscherqus bnit.” Geese, ducks, and grouse abound ; rabits are plenty: tho gobble of tho turkay in henjd; and deer and antolope graze sociably together upon tho hill- sidos, I'heso sylvan scenes, howovor, are fast becoming marredl by tho cabin of the wquattor, aud, in & fow years moro, will exist only w the imnginetion.

Xetter from on inmate Relntive to the Conflict of Authority Retween the Commandant und ths City Pow= lice Court, SoLp1Ens HoME, NEAB MIrwAunre, W My 28, 1674, Z'o the Editor of The Chfcago Tribune: Sir: You havo noticed for tho past fow wacks various roports in the Blilwaukeo papors of a conflict of authority betweon the Police Court of Milwaukeo City and Gon. Hincks, Commandant of this Homo. And, as the Milwaukeo papers, with charactoristio Iack of entorpriso, have pub- lished first statemonts, without taking tho trouble to inquire into tho facts of tho caso, the result is that no corrcct account has boen glvon in either of (ho dslios of thecity. A careful - quiry clicites the following: Throo of tho inmates of tho Iome got into & quarrel in the bath-room of the main Luilding, ond the party who scemed to feol that ko had renson to bo disentisfiod with the rosult of the affair (haviug suffored a slight contusion of the eye), mede complaint to Gen, Hincks, who investignted the matter, and one of the party accused of the assault was fined 4. Tho asenulted party (who, by tho way, is not supposed to bo compos mentis, and is notorioua- 1y a troublesome ehnracter), thinking the paltry sum of $1 was tosufficicut to treat his lacerated countonance, went to Milwaulkoe (thia without loave) and applied to tho Clerk of the Polics Court for & warrant for the arrost of tho othors. A warrant was issued upon this complaint, sot~ ting forth that tho assault hod been committed within the City and County of Milwaukee; whon tho fact is, that the Home-grounds aro without the limits of tho citysamo distanco, This warrant was placed in tho hands of tho Sherif® of the county for execution, who, on making applica- tion for tho dellvery of the culprity, was in- formed that thess mon were, g inmates of tho H ome, subjeot to discipline undor the Rules and Articles of War, &8 por express terms of thosot incopornting eaid Institution; and that thoy could ot bo dolivered up, oxcept a propor ro- quisition was made, sbowing tout tho ollonse came within the provisions of tho thirty-thrco Atticles of War, Tho papers wero resorted to for a ventilation of both sides of* the question, tho substauce of which you aro fully acquainted with. The complainant, on visiting thoe oity, a fow days after this, was locked up as witnoess in the case; and, & for days since, one of tho ac- cusod was eaptured, and will bo tried to-day ; or itis quite probablo that the Court will decide that tho caso is without its jurisdiction. Some of the papars of Milwaukes lose no o] yortunity to go for the ofiicers of the Ifomo,~in one instauce making a political fight of it ; and, of couree, the readors of that papor, from their standpoint nssuming that * No good thing can como out of Nazaroth,” accopt any and eves thing that may be said derozatory to its man- agement.
