A TRIP TO COLORADO. —— X11.—ADVENTURES IN THE MIDDLE PARK. From Qur Special Correspondent. CAMP NEAR BLue RIVER, MDoLr PARK, July 1, 1864, Our first morning in camp found us sore, stiff, aud “but balf refreshed after the hardships of crossing the paes. Nevertheless, we breakfasted, saddled, packed, wnd got under way with alacrity, encouraged by the prospect of a restorative bath at the Hot Springs, ‘which are said to heal all sorts of ailments, bring the hair to bald heads, and put new blood into old veins. The trail bore away to the left of Frazer River, over gently undulating ground, still wooded; but the trees were smaller, the soil dry, and the increasing gleams of sky through the topmost boughs indicated that we wore getting emt of the mountdins. On the way we found a geranium—pink, veined with purple; a beau- * giful orchid, almost identical with the cyclamen of . ‘ally running into red . vuold.’h:, &l wi absorbed taly and Grooce; violcts, rose-colored pogemias, with & delicato peach-blossom odor, and huge beds of a snow-white, golden hearted star-flower. The oc sional openings among the pines ware natural gardens, which I regretted to see trampled upon by the hoofs of our heasts. After riding thus for half an bour, there was an ex- elamation from the foremost of the party. The long, Jong forest was at an end: we found ourselves at ti head of a superb meadow stretching westward for five or six miles, bounded on the north, first by low gray Mills of fantastic shape, then by great green ascending 'slopes of forest, and above all, jagged ranges of rock aud snow. On the south were low swells of pine and wspen, near at hand; twenty miles behind them do- ‘tachod spurs of mountains, conspicuous among which gose a loity wedge-like pcak. Although on the Pacific slope of the Rocky Mountains, the dividing ridge, or watershed betweon the two oceans, embraced us on ‘three sides. The main chain meanders through Col- orado in a enriously tortuous cour It comes down the west side of the North Park (which is drained by the head-waters of the North Platte); then turns di- gectly eastward, separating the North from the Middle Park; then southward, bounding the Middle Park (the waters of which flow to the Colorado and the Cali- fornian Gulf) on the east; then due westward, divid- iing the Middle from the South Park (which collects and unites the watersof the South Platte); and finally after naking an abrupt curve around the head-wat of the Arkansas, strikes southward toward N Moxico. The Parks form a very remarkable feature of the mountain region. They resemble, on asmaller scale, the lofty, mountain-bonnded tableslands of ‘Cashmere and Thibet. They are still but imperfoctly explored, and still more imperfectly represented the maj have not been able to find any minute deseription of their scenery, soil and climate; hence evory step of the present journey has been full of in- terest. }n fact, none of the accounts of travel among the Rocky Mountains seem to me to present their individuality, #s mountains, v distinctly—to dis- criminate between what is original. and peculiar to Lhem, and those general features whick all mountain Eginus possess in common. Each day, thus far, has rought me its new surprises but I shall content my- If, at present, with giving the details of the journey. The change from the forest to this meadow w that from confinement to liberty. Our animals seomed to feel it also, and trotted forward briskly through the thick green grass. Near the head of t eadow we passed a large haystack and squatte hanty, where the horses pastured in the Park are during the Winter. Ouly one man—Jones, who dis- covered the new pass—has attempted to establizh a wanche. He hus sowed 60 acres of grain on the lower t of Grand River, but White informs me that the ttempt does not promise much. The average level of the Park above the sea cannot be less than 5,000 feet. although the extremo of cold is not so great as in Penver, the Winter iz so long, and the Stthwer nights s0 cool, that it iz doubtful whether grain (except ‘barley and oats) can be raised. My lean mare was evidently not adequate to the | Aask; so White, catching sight of a herd of horses and mules, near the forther end of the meadow jpromised mwe an Indian pony in exclange, and rode | ff in advance to drive in the herd. The animals, Yike those we badgaken from Empire, belong to Charley Utter whom we bhad hoped to have as a cer panion for the jonrner: but he had joined the rush of ’uld-humom for Bear River (a hundred miles west of the Middle Park) and bad not yet returned. Mr, Beard, also, groaned over his McClellan saddle, and tho gait of his mule. We both, therefore, looked for- ward with some 1mpatience to the noonday balt. After crossing a number of swift, swollen streams which came down from the left, we reached a bi aod dryer part of the meadow, and the strong, juicy rass gave place to sage-bush and flowers—a plain of ilver-gray, sprinkled with a wyriad minute dots of eolor. The odor which filled the air was so exquisite »s slightly to intoxicate the senses. For miles 1 peemed to be riding through & Turkish bazaar, and in- hading the mingled scent of cloves, sandal-wood and attar of roses. My aches and cramps were forgotten: I swam in an atmosphere of balm, half narcotized with the rich, voluptuous deiight of breatbing it. ‘White started ap a very large fox, which was Ehln; evough to keep out of rifle-range. We skirted 0 wood on the left, and left the meadow for a low, ry platean, which was one mile-long bed of bine <purs and scarlet star-wort, ‘The grazing animals ad been ndded to our caballada, and we sped werrily ‘along the trail, increas ng the breadth and sweep of | our pavoramic landscapes, as we yenetrated deeper | finto the hilly region. 1 exchanged my mare fora | Itough little yellow Indian _pony, barefooted, but nim- | thle sud iuh-fhgrnl: after inspecting me with his nose, ‘eud apparently finding no objection, ha established confidential relations at once, and has served me, | thus far, with unswerving fidelity. It was a singular country tbrough which we rode, | aod I regret that I am not able to describe its geolog cal character. Hills wooded with aspen, and narrow, rassy dells, alternated with wide sweeps of irregular ble-land, trecless and bare, except for a growth of page and lark-spur. The valleys of the larger streams Which thread the Middle Park were shut out from wiow, but the distant cincture of Alpine summits et the eye, in every direction, ‘We rode 20 miles— | two-thirds of the distance to the Hot Springs—made a | brief noon-camp beside a brook, and then pushed for- ward again, toward a lofty range of hills which arose Defore us. - Gradually, all the eastern portion of the Park came dnto view. I readily distinguished the Berthond Pass, as well as that at_the head of Clear Creek, and could Foughly measure by the eye both their elevation above the Park and the character of the approcches which .thoy offer for a railroad. On this side of the moun- ns there seems to be no difficulty, except such as might arise from heayy snows during the Winter. To Ahe north-east. Mr. Byers pointed out the Bowlder | Pass, which rises above the timber line, but is almost Aare of snow. It is practicable for wagons, butis wory little traveled. An isolated chimney rock, two or three hundred feet in hight, stands like a beacon on the very summit of this pass. 1 can add to my own Mr. Beard's testimony as to the originality of the Park scenery, in an artistic point lof view. The features are large and broad, with out- * Rines to some extent fantastic yet not inharmonious. /In color, gray predominates, but a gray most rare in dscape—silvery over the sage-plains, greenish and ly along the slopes of bunch-grass, and occasion- where the soil shows through the thin vegetation. Iu the grand views—fifty miles §n extent—irom tto ridge we were climbing, there Jwere no positive tints, but the most delicate and sur- ‘prising suceession of broad half-tints, to which sun- é:me. and clond-shadows lent_the loveliest effect. 'he brush only can describe landscapes so new in character. 1 found myself thinking of Central Asia— * of the regions of Rokasd and Kashgar, as 1 imagine them to be. From this point, there were no forests, ‘except aspen groves, “on the crests of the hills; the ay undulations swept into the distance, dipping here there into hollows of singular form, and leaning, far away, against the feet of mountain-ranges, where Yhere was the faint green glimmer of a meadow at the oot of every snowy ravine. The flushed snows of Ahe farther summits did not seem lofl{ and inaccessi- Mle—our own elevation reduced the bighest of them 'to less than 7,000 feet--but their irregular character and great variety of outline give the true background for such landscapes. The animals gave us much trouble during this day’s !wmy. Qur little black pack-mule, Peter, has a iabolical knack of sbifting bis load, so that the proper fbalance is lost and the pack-saddle tarns. On one of these occasions, while White and 1 were engaged in ‘wopacking, Mr. Beard rode up and offored his services. 1Jt was fortunate that we did not need them, for he afterward confessed that he bad tricd to dismount, and (in ence of the previous day’s humhlr) as unable to do so. I was in scarcely better plight, ut bad no reason to complain: I had been wishing T BOVPTe phglul fatigue, and now I bave it in abu! ‘e were obliged to drive with usan 00 mare, belonging to the ethard, and a more outrageous creatu exshnfi. y sofne sort of animal magnetism, &?.'Jm iately took command »f all our horses aud mules, and yet never lost an op- E‘.Inlt of biting, kicking, snd driving them from tuii The more violent her behavior toward them, the more they were fascinated with her. Her wiolous.oyes were glways on the look-out: while we ghiet, but the moment wo be- *no in scenery _or sowo topic of couversa- tion, she would dash at_one of the animals and break up tho line of march. White confossed that sho had exasporated bim to such a pitch that ho shot at her, and was now sorry that ho missed. i Gradually climbing the hills, among beds of crim- son and violet Tuping, Bearlot star-flowers, and many ghowy unknown plants, wo came at last to a divide, wheuce the trail sloped down to the m"e_]y of Grand River, at the Hot Springs, now four miles distant. Mr. Byors pointed out a biuff, covered with scatter- ing olumps of red cedar, as the objeotive point of our day's journey. On our right towered a lofty ridge, thrusting oulsbuttresses of perpendicolar rock, crowned with pines, and beyond the Grand River aroso o similar, but much grander and more abrupt formation. Between the two tho river issued, winding away west- ward among grocn, interlocking hills, until we could only guess its gateway out of the Park among some snow-peaks, thirty or forty miles away. The prospect of & sulphur-bath helped us over the remainder of the way, and in another hour we dis- mounted in & meadow on the banks of the Grand Kiver, directly opposite to the Hot Springs. Mr. Byers looked at the stream, and meditated: White did the same thing. It was fluid ice (for coldness), forty or fifty yards wide, swift as an arrow, and evi- dently too decp to ford. On the opposite bauk we saw a rough log-cabin, on a little knoll, and a stream of white, smoking water tumbling down a rock, ten feet high, in a smoking pool below. Forms were moving among some cottonwoods on the river bottom: their red blankets aunounced that they were Indians. While we were hesitating some rheumatic eromito whom White knew came down to the bank, and with much difficulty shouted across above the roar of the water, that it was impossible to cross: we must go eight miles higher up the river. (But eight miles on the opposite side meant fifteon on ours). Two of us, at least, were in no mood to rewount that day, aud tho rest of tho party did not seem very enthusiastic. It was finally decided that we should cawp where we were, and those who wished to visit the Hot Springs should swim the river. White and I stripped to our shirts and drawers, mounted our animals bare- backed, and rode down to the water. While we were trying to force them in, they refusing with all their might, we were again hailed from the other side and warned against making the attempt. A short dis- tance below us the river entered a caiion, and became a cataract, This fact, combined with the fearful cold- ness and swiftness of the current, mado us pauso. It was no doubt well that we did so—well that we silently tarned and rode back to the camp. All Ican say of the Hot Springs, therefore, is that they gush from the carth in a stream almost large enough to turn & will; that they make a smoking cascade, with a ot pool below; that they are said to work wonder- ful cures; and that two gentlemen dispute the priority of preémpting them. There we were, on the bare plain, without a tree for shelter, our only fuel the rubbish left from former camp-fires, and a black thunder-storm coming up. Turning the horses loose to drag their lariats graze, we first kindled a fire and then sot about scour. ing our baggage from the rain. Forming a sort of platform with fragments of wood, we placed our Dlankets and sacks thereon, and covered them with India-rubber cloth. Mr. Beard was at great pains to find a place for his umbrella under the waterproof; and not until the storm was over, leaving us half- soaked, did it occur to him that he might have used it! PFortunately, there was more wind and thunder than rain, and the superb indigo-gray of the moun- tains in shadow repaid us for the dreuching. Toward evening, it became very cvident that the Arapahoe mare was slyly leading our animals out of our view, in order to make off with them, White trudged away through the wet grass and brou, it them back; but it was necessary, morcover, to catch and picket the mare. It was easier to decide that this should be done, than to do it. The mare was separated from the other animals and driven into_a corner of the meadow be- tween the river and the bluffs at the entrance of the cafion. One of the gentlemen then took his stand above, while White cautiously approached with a lariat. Skill and strategy were alike in vain: with a whirl and a dash she avoided the flyiug noose, and shot off between her pursners. Others went to the rescue, and the scene soon became very exciting. All the other Lorses and mules lett off grazing, drew near, and watehed the contest with the most absorbed interest. It was perfectly evident that they under- stood this was to be u test of power, settling the question whether they were to be ruled by us or the mare. They we o politicians on the fence, and re- minded us of newspapers and individuals, who and which shall be namele To wateh them was to me the most interesting part of the spectacle: they fol- Jowed every movement of men aud wmare, standing knee-deep in rich grass which they never thought of croppi 1t was nearly an hour before the provoking beast was finally cornered, noosed and tied to a tree. The other animals then tursed away and went to their ginzing, paying not the elightest heed to her. She was nobody, now that she could go longer kick nor patronize. ‘Then I thought of certain pol; White's rage was nov yet allayed. He took a piece of sapling, aud laid it heavily on the mare’s hide. Then he came back and sat down by the fire, declar- ing that she should have no pasture that night. Half an hour passed: the rest of the herd were luxuriating on the meadow, while the culprit, sore and hungry, hung ber head dejectedly beside the tree. White arose, stole quietly away, made a picket, bronght the mare down to the meadow and fastened her 1u good pasture, **8he looked kind o' pitiful,” he said. ‘We made our bed on the wet earth, expecting to be rained upon during the night; but the heavens were merciful, and we enjoyed sound and tolerably dry sleep. I experienced threo distinet electric shocks, probubly from the fact that T was insulated by the India-rubber cloth upen which Ilay, and then touched the earth with my hand. On the snowy ranges per- sons are sometimes so charged, that there are sparks and crackling sounds at every movement of their bodies. Men unacquainted with the phenomenon im- agine that bees have gotten into their hair and that rattlosnakes are at their heels. Many strange stories are told of the effect of the fluid, which seems to wanifest itsell in an eccentric but not a dangerous form. —1I have much more to say of the Middle Park, but must bere elose aud comINENce anew Lo-Inorrow.
