2 THE WEST. —— BAYARD TAYIOR IN TIE MOUNTAINS, ME. ROCKY IDAHO AND COLORADO, e TR (AF® AND ENTERPRISE IN THE GOLD COUNTRIES. A TRIP TO COLORADO. . XML—THE UTE PASS, MIDDLE PARK. From Our Spocial Correspondent. k. Breckexrmar, Blue River, July 2, 1866. ‘We aroso from our moist couch on the banks of Grand River, to find the stream still rising, and a thick mist, foreboding rain, epread over the face of the earth. Mr. Byers's {riend, Dr. Wharton, who was encampod at the Springs, came down to the opposite bank, and some notes, tied to stones, were exchanged. I rebeived, in this way, & pink malee, which made the airy Journey withont damage. Our further route gave riso to a serions consultation. In three days more'l had appointed to bo in Breckenridge, at the head of Blue River, about 75 miles from the Springs. There was no probability that we could ford the Biue, in the present swollen condition of all the monntain streams, and the regular trail lay hoyond that river. We woere aware, indeed, that the Ute Indians made usd'of another trail, on this side, striking directly scross the Middle Park (the diameter of which is aearly a hundred miles),—but none of our party had sver traversed it, or knew anything about it beyond the rumor that it was exceedingly difficult and dan- gerous. Yot there was no alternetive: we were limited to the choice of this unknown route. It was & matter of groat regret that we had failed in reaching the Hot Springs, aud I proposed to start for Breckenridge in sompany with White, leaving the rect of the party to cross the Grand at the upper ford, if they preforred. Thoy decided, however, that we should keep together, and we made immediate preparations for departure. ‘We first retraced our trail for two miles or more, then, turuing westward, crossed a Ligh ridge wooded with aspen and descended toward the Grand over sromatio slopes of sage-bush. The mist rolled into clouds and hid all the higher mountaing trom view,— whieh 1 greatty regretted, as from this point we might have secn the Rabbit-Ears, two remarkable Aupme horns on tbe western border of the North Park. We struck the Grand in the cafion below the Springs, and for some distance the path was notehed along the side of a fir-wooded steep, over the roaring flood. Small brooks, invisible under dense willow thickets, came down on our left, making deep side-dells in the bluff. It was not very far, however, before the cafion opened, revealing a broad gray landscape, through which the Gmand could be traced into the distance by its belt ot cottonwoods, We rode forward over what is called the ““zecond bottom"—a low teble-land, rising into hills & mile from the river, covered with auniform growth of sil- very sage, aud dotted with graziog autelope. The sun came out, the mist arose from the snowy ranges, and all aspects were cheerful except the compeny ot the Arapahoe mare, which, thauk Heaven! was not to last long. We heard the cry o an eagle circking m the air over our heads, and had not proceedod half a mile further before we discovered an eagle’s nest in the top of a cottonwood just under the edge of the bluff. We were able to nide within a hundred feet and look iato it. Three eaglets—awkward, owlish creatures, completely covered with thick gray down,— NEW-YORK DAILY TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1866.—WITH SUPPLEMENT. one of them was caught, sitting under a sage-bush and looking with bright, unsbrinking eyes directly in the face of its captor. Of course wo did mot shoot the hens,—an act of sclf-denial (our salt fare beins oonsidered) which ought to be set down to our eredit. Ere long we reached meadows again, threaded by awift tributary brooks of the Roaring Fork. The pas- sago of these streams, smell a3 they were, gave us some trouble, owing to the treacherons character of the soil. Mr. Beard's mule went down and rolled over upon him, pinning him fast in the mud, and my pony only avoided a like disaster by bis great shrewd ness and agility. At 1 0'olock we camped on the banks of a brook, and our fishers immediately got their gear in readi- ness for trout. Two of ns determined on a bath in spite of musketoes and ice-water; and while a portion the me were playing leap-frog solitaire, in the search for grasshopper bait, auother portion landing a0 occasional diminutive fish, and the remainder at- tempting to dry their tingling ekins, there was a sud- den ory ot “How! how?" across tho low willow thickets, Indians, with vermilion faces and stream- ing black bair ! There were two braves and squaws, mouuted, and two pappooses, They crossed to us without ceremony, shook hands, and attem, ted con- versation, which was not very edifyln% until we dis- covered that one of them nnderstood a little Spanish We then learned that they were on their way from the Blue to join the remainder of thoir tribe on the head-watcrs of the Grand: their chief, Colorado, was at Breckenridge, end they thought the rivers could be forded. One of the men—who. wore, uingulurl,y enough, an Austrian military cost (from Maxiwilian's army ?)—possessed some tact and discretion. e pre- vented the other from going too near our luggage. and withdrew with him to a little distance when we sat down to onr meal. He showed a little curiosity about o satchel of mine; but when I told bim it was ** medi- cive,” and made certain mysterious signs, he seemed catisfied. The squaws bronght their shy pappooses to look at us—beautiful beiugs, all of thewn, with paint- smeared faces, and hideously suggestive hair and blankets. Uncas ard Cora—heroes and heroines of romance ! Presently another horsemen appeared, galloping to- ward us over the hills, from the opposite direction. It was White, who, to our great joy, had a soge-hen at his saddle-bow, and & supply of antelope-venison for our supper. He, 100, had crossed a comer of the moss-agate patoh, without finding any of the jewels. Considerably refreshed by the bath and by one de- licious trout apiece (would it had been a dozen') we pushed forward, entering a_hilly region, where dense tracts of woodland alternated with fields of flowers. The tracks of elk, deer, and even bear, were frequent, but much as our hunters dashed away from the lnnli they brough! us nothing. _After some miles, wo found ourselves suddonly on & bluff, overlooking Roaring Fork, which issued, with many a sneky twist, from a stretoh of pine forest. Into i]is forest went the trail, 80 obstructed with fallen timber that our progress was an unintermitted serios of lcaps, We outdid all the performances that wero ever made with bars in the circus-ring. On emorging from this wood we found ourselves in the loveliost meadow-park, several miles long, opening before us directly to the foot of the great snowy peakd Aswift brook sped down it, under bowery ! ickets and past clumps of treos; the turf was brilliantly groen and spangied with flowers; lov hills bounded it on either side, the forests with which they were cov- ered sending out irregular capes, and arms embracing bays of grass; and over the sweet pastoral seclusion towered the Alpie chain, here smitten with gold by the sinking sun, there glooming broad and blue under the shadowse of thunder-clouds. Nothing could Lave been more unexpected than the change from aspen woods and sikery hills of sage to this green, pine-en- framed, Arcadian landscape. We made our the night in a grove of trees, which our huge pine-logs illuminated with mogical effect. Moreover, we had fresh meat for tho first tima, couches on & matting of pine needles, the best of pasturage for our beasts, and for the first time since leaving Empire, enjoyed a feeling of comfurt. It roined during the night, but the trees madc a partial shelter. Our day’s travel could not have been less than thirty miles, It was now very evident that the pass we sought lay to the right of the high peak, and that the Valley of the Blue was beyond the range. The majestic mountain has no name. It is very ncar the center of the Middle Park, and its summit must command & sat on the edges of the mest, which was a huge struoture of sticks, and yelped piteously, It wasa are piece of good fortune for all of us, none of whom had over seeu (aud probably will never see again) an le's nest with the brood in it. Mr. Beard, with the mof a good glass, made o permauent acquisition, and when bis piciure is exhibited I can testify that he paints what be Las seen. Williams Fork—or, as it is better called,* Roarin, Fork,—a large affluent of the Grand, now annonn itself in frout, by the tops of its timber rising above the bluff. It was also much swollen, and the fording was & matter of some difficulty. Mr. Byers, as nsual, lod the way, bressting the icy water which, ‘nk‘mq his horse's side, almost swept over its back. We al took an extremely cold leg-bath, and my pouy came within an ace of being carried down the streum. On the opposite bank we SZrivled our party, White taking the spare animals (including the Arapaboe mare) to Charloy Utter's cabin, five miles further down the Grand, while the rest of us determined to try the Ute teail, up the west bank of Roaring:Fork. This ar- ment would save us several miles of the journey, as White, on his strong_mule, conld easily rejoin us during the afternovn, Somewhere abead of nslay tho fanions moas-agate region, which we were especially dosirous of visiting, each one having his private hopes of jowelry for wife or swectheart, 'he s0il on the narrow bottoms of Roearing Fork is thio purest humus, produoing grass of astonishing rank- .mess and richness, which our animals enapped at with “erasy oagorness. We had not proceeded a mile, how- ever, before our way was barred by an abrupt moun- tain, through the center of Which the stream forced its | way, in a parrow, rock-walled slit—a caon (funncl) | in the strictest sense. of the word. The trail led ns into this cleft, taking the very edge of a precipice two bundred fect in perpendicular depth, where there was barely room for our horses to set their hoofs. Under us the river was & mass of foam: opposite—not a stone's throw across—rose the jagged walls of dark- | red rock, terminating in fantastic pinuacles.

The former was finfenhlo. on' accoufit of the puck- ~ mules, bat Mr. MoCaadless and myselfl determued to try the latter, believing that we might gain in tiso what we lost in laborious travel. The ascent was co p that we could with difficulty kecp our foot-hold 1n olimbing; and it was wonderfil to see the conii- denoe which the horses had in ous leadership aud the . ty with which they followed us.

From the highest part o pass, aother grand gray landscape opened to LS view of this whole inclosed region. I thercfore sug- gest that it be called Park Peak (rather than such a name 88 Cummings or Doolittle). and—if no one has uy objection—will so designate it We soon reached the head of the meadow, where a jungle of willow-bushes, threaded by a network of streams, lay between us and the mountain. The trail was wet and boggy, and the dripping boughs through which we forced our way wet us to the skin, Then ensued 8 horrible scramble, which lasted for nearly two miles. We either floundered in 1ood in the bot- tom of a glen, climbed over piles of fallen timber, or cropt up and down_ slippery, crumbling staircases, of Joose soil. In such places our pack-mules showed a wonderful talent. The skill with which they passed between treos, leaped logs and steadied themselves along the edge of ticklish declivitios, without disar- ranging their packs, could never be imagined by one who had not seen it. We considered these two miles equal to ten of good road. The trail gradually im- proved, and we entered a reg vhich was a perfect reproduction of the mountain-dells of Saxony. Mead- ows of velvet turf lay imbedded in tall, dark forests of fir, which stretched up the slopes sbove us until they formed fnuie against the sky. At every wind- ing of the valley, I looked, involuntarily, for the old, mossy mill, and the squares of Lleaching linen-on the grass. - SBnow-drifts made their appearance where tho shade was deepest, and the few sspens aud alders wero just putting their leaves, This part of the pass was so beantiful that we reached the summit—much sooner than we expected— almost with regret, We bad not risen more than a theusand foet above the general lovel of the Park. From the top we looked down a narrow, winding glen, between lofty parapets of rock, and beheld mountains in the distance, dark with shadow, and veuishing in clouds. The deseent was steep but not very toilsome. After reaching tho bed of tho glen, we followed it downward through beds of grass and flowers, under the shade of castellated rocks, and round the feet of patursl ramparts, until it opened upon wide plaivs of sage-bush, which formed the shelving side of un im- meuse valley. The usualline of cottonwood betrayed a stream, and when we caught a glimpse of the water, its muddy tint—the sure sign of gold-wushing— showed that we had found the Blue River. We had crossed the Ute Pass, as it is called by the trappers, ond are among the first white men who have ever traversed it. We now looked on Park Peak from the west side. Instead of descending to the river, our trail turned southward, running nearly parallel with its course, near the top of the sloping piane which connects the mountains with the valley. The sun came out, the clouds lifted and rolled away, and oue of the most re- warkable mountain landscapes of the carth was re- vealed to our view. The valley of the Blue, whieh, for a length of thirty miles, with & bresdth varying from five to ten, Jay under our eyes, wore a Lint of pearly silver-gray, upou which the ripe green of the timber along the river, and the scattered gleams of water secemed to be enameled. Opposite to us, above this #aj lor, rose hoge wmountain-foandations, where the grassy openings were pale, the {orests dark, l.heilem and gorges filled with shadow, the rocks touched with lines of light—making a chequered effect that suggested cultivation and old settlemeut.

OBITUARY. ——— CHARLES ALEXANDER. Charles Alexander, who died in Philadelphia Sept. year, was the oldest joursalist in the United biad beo one of the leading publishers. He was born in Philadelphia in 1796, and at the age of 16 was appren- ticed to Zachariah Foulson, and soon became on_accomplished printer. The old printing office of Benjamin Frauklin, with the type and prsses nsed by that great father of thecraft, were purchased by Mz, Alexander. The Daily Chronicle, b one time the leading journal of the city, was edited and published by him; and afiorward he established The Saturday Evening Post, and was, with Louis A. Godey, ono of the founders of the Lady's Bock. Ve was also publisher of Graham's Magazine and of The Gentleman's Magazi ton's celebrated period- fcal. 1t ia said, aud perhaps tru as ' the first man n this country who aged his business in such a manner as to afford fair prices for literary compositions of merit.” But all these opportunities, by sonie sad mischance, slipped through his hauds, wnd after a long life of energy and usefulaess, old found him poor. We do ot doubt that the jourualists of Lis native eity w ow their sppreciation of his merits and repu- tation by making praper provision for his family.
