To reach it take the Atlantic and Pacific railway to McCarthy station, and then transfer to an Indian pony and ride eighteen miles south and east. When near your Journey's end you descend almost impercepti- bly into the valley, sx miles in width, in the middle of which stands a butte, and on the top ofthis is Acoma. Eight hundred people live there, and they and their ancestors have gath- ered the sum of their possessions for nearly three centuries. This butte Is one of many thatare the remnants of a mesathat has been Worn away by the erosion of the ages, and sur- ¥ives only'in flat-topped mountains here and there. The valleys between are fertile, and untold generations of men have seen ‘them covered with waving grain and flocks of sheep. Some time in the seventeenth century the Laguno, or Valley Indians, made war upon the Acomias for the possession Of the country, and the latter being the weaker, occupied the butte as a defensive position, believed to be impreg- nable. Their judgment has been abundantly vindicated. ft has proved a Gibraltar of strength and safety. ‘The comparison is not inappropriate, and in approaching it from the north I was struck with the resemblance to the pictures I have seen of that grim fortress that frowns over the straits to the Mediterranean. The height above the valley 1s nearly 400 feet, ‘and the walls in several places very perden- dicular, ‘There are two means of ascent, one by a flight of steps cut into the face of the’ wall and rising at an angle of forty-five degrees, and the other by a fissure in the rocks leading up into the heart of the mountain. Both ways have been trodden by humun feet until the ps are hollowed out like shallow troughs. Ether one fs exceedingly diMeult, and neither is tolerably safe. We chose the one along the fissure. One has to stride over the fissure, one foot on the righthand side and the other on the left, and at the same time press the hands alternately agalust the rocks for support. An Indian will throw a live sheep around his neck and go up quite rapidly without touchin either hand to the rocks; but Iain satisfied could never do it. ey told us Of apathetic Incident that oc- curred on the outer stairway several genera- tions ago.

GEN, M'CLEBNAND'S MEETING WITH GEN, SHER- MAN ABOUT A YEAR AGO, ‘From the Chicago News, Gen. John A. McClernand, who has been brought to the front as a candidate for the Springfield collectorship in opposition to the man backed by Congressman Springer, is one of the old school politicians of Illinois. ‘He be- longs to the class of men that never forgives an injury and never forgets a wrong. Gen. Mc- Clernand was one of the bravest and best vol- unteer generals in the Union army, His suc- cess as an officer naturally drew him into the jenloustes which existed between the West Poloters and’ the “political generals, aurin that entire strugule. Gen. MeClernand glorie in the success of the volunteer officers and strongly maintained his own right to distinc- tion. “The history of his quarrels with the other generals would fill. large book, Probably the most bitter dispute was with Gen. Sherman, For twenty years he remembered that quarrel With Sherman and positively refused to forgive the real or supposed injury, ‘The two generais seldom met, but when they did neither recognized the otlier. Time, how- ever, had a softening influence npon Gen! Sher- man, and when, a little over ayearago, he went toSpringtteld to attend the dedication of the Battle-lag Memorlal hai, he was ready to kiss and nfke up with Gen. MeClernand, “The lat- ter was in no such mind. Unlike Gen. Palmer, who had also quarreled with Gen. Sherman, he refused to pay the distinguished soldier who visited Springfield that day any honor, Palmer met Sherman’ at the train, conducted him to the state house, and paid him other attentions. McClernand ighored Sherman's presence, and, in order to avoid meeting him, did not enter the room where the services were conducted until after Gen, Black: had. becun the delivery of the oration of fhe day. Even then he entered by aside door and took a seat down among the dience, though requested to goon_ the stage. Gen. Palmer caughtslght of him and remarked to Gen. 8 “Gen, MeCiernand has just come in, “Ask him to come up here,” replied Sher- man, Palmer edged his way to MeClernand and sald: “Gen, MeClernand, Gen.Sherman requests that you come upon the ktage. “Did Gen. Sherman send this message to me?" asked MeUiernand, as he assumed his most diz- nifted air; “and so you, Gen. Paliner, bring such a message?” “Ot course? why not?” questioned Palmer. “Gen. Palmer,” sald the still more dignified McClernand, “have you condoned the wrongs of 20 years ago?” “I haven't condoned anything,” said Palmer, “put [think it 1s about time we gray-haired fools had quit making asses of oursely should we keep up old qua nd do us no good?" said McClernand, “I will go; but con, ventlonally, sir, conventisnally, remember,” and they procecded to the stage. When they arrived before Gen, Sherman that distinguished gentleman arose and offered his hand. ‘The au- lence was composed mainly of old soldiers, Who knew of the long-standing quarrel. Be: leving this to be a reconciliation, ‘the soldiers artily applauded, and Gen. Blick was com- pelled to discoutinte his speech fora short time. Even now there are very few who were in that andience who know that the handshaking was only “conventional.” oe How To Ent a Possum. From the Talbo'tom (Georgia) Era.
