(■..rrespondenca Telegraph and Messenger.}
Pcjsbco, December 13,1874.
My lost letter to you concluded with a
promise to give you some notos of travel
in the southern part of our Territory,
und luting desirous to keep my reputation
for veracity at par, I will proceed to moke
good my promise.
This, at present, is the southern ter
minus of our railway connections. From
here to the State of Chihuahua, in the
Republic of Moxico, over a portion of
Colorado and tho Territories of New
Mexico and Arizona, a distance of 1,000
miles, there is not ono rail of iron laid.
The mailt, passengers and express all go
by stage, and in no part of our great
country has staging been carried to such
perfection as in the West. Years ago.
Hen Holliday was tho great stage king
of America. From Missouri to Califor
nia, and through all tho Territories, were
found his lines, bnt he has retired from
the arena, and is now enjoying his millions
in tho great metropolis of New York.
H tnderson A Barlow have, in this por
tion of tho West, taken his place, and
l’uehla is the home offico for nearly a
thousand miles of their line. No better
teams or finer Concord coaches can bo
fuund anywhere than here. At G o'clock
wo are notified that tho stage is ready,
and no timo to wait. The driver shouts,
"All aboard,” and when all aboard, wo
rattle along over tho hard streets of Pa-
obla—over tho Arkansas—up the Mesas,
on the opposite side—then out on tho
great plaint, which onco constituted a
jiart of Mexico. Twenty-ono miles from
i’uubla wo tuko breakfast. At the new
town of Chncharas, 60 miles from Pueb
la, we take dinner, and tea at Trinidad,
the metropolis of tho South, just 100
miles away.
Tho road for tho wholo distance runs
along tho baso of tho mountains, and no
better, smoother, or harder roads ore to
he found anyvhere. Tho road crosses
somo fine streams, tho St, Charles, Huer-
faud, Apisbapa, Santa Clara and Pnrga-
torie, (pronounced "Picketuiro”). Along
the course of theso streams are somo fine
ranches, and in a few years all tho water
which flows from tho mountains will be
utilized. In somo places I noticed that
ditches had been run along tho hillsides
for many miles and the water conducted
into tho great natural water basins which
are so numerous here, thus making great
artificial lakes. Those ore filled in win
ter and tho water used for stock and ir
rigation in sn earner.
Tho Mesas between theso streams can
not bo irrigated, and tho land Is perfectly
worthless for purposes of agriculture,
but is tho finest " range ” for sheep in
the country. We passod many fine flocks
of sheep along tho road, some flocks
containing from five to soven thousand,
though the greater number of them con
tained from one to three thousand "head."
The sheep ore never" corraled” in winter
or summer—hot live on tho plains and
along tho foot-hills. Tho herders are all
Mexicans, dogs and " burros ” (donkeys)
‘ ‘ * ailies. All
a slouch hot tad a five-inch nary strap
ped to his side, and who 'ooks as if he
did not core whether the river rose or
fell—ho ts a Texan cow-driver. The one
passing, dressed in a suit of grey cordu
roy. with a buckskin patch on the knees
and Western settlements, is a sheep
grower. And so, as each American pass
es, it is easy from their personal appear
ance to tell their avocation or profession.
The Meiican population you can tell
nothing about. No two look alike, no
two dress alike, and no one would be
happy unless he had on some article of
clothing which was ragged. The Heri
cans are a peculiar people. Of all shades
of color, from the pore Castilian to ab
most an ebony black. A party of them
at first blush wonld be taken for mnlat-
toes, bnt then their features are more an
gular, lips thin, and hair perfectly
straight, very coarse and black zasrs-
r.-u'swing. After passing the period of
manhood and womanhood they never
grow oldor; all then seem to be the
same sgs, and all look wrinkled, wixzened
and bloodless. The women never wear
bats or bonnets. They wear a shawl
thrown loosely over the top of the head
and fastened under the chin, concealing
the neck and about half of the face. They
are short, fat and dumpy—nothing to re
mind one of the sweet charms of woman
hood but their eyes, and in this particu
lar they are Messed above all their sta
ters. Their eyes are as black as jet, and
os soft and liquid as the eye of a fawn,
and they know hove, and love to use them.
When marriageable they are simply given
in marriage. The bridegroom
in-law do the courting, and when traded
off, the bride, in a matter of fact tort of
way, goes to the home of her liege lord.
Her {ores are another matter, and of this
we will not speak, and simply draw the
veil of charity over her frailties. Who
would not be /toll in such a state ofjaoci-
ety ? Haman nature can arawer the
problem,
Mexican houses are all built on the
me plan and bear no resemblance to
the habitations of other men. Their
houses are built of "adobes," sun dried
brick, made from adobe clay—a hard dur
able tenacious clay, filled with alkaline
matter which imparts to it a doll grayish
tint. The clay is mixed in machines sim
ilar to those used in making brick, when
'our senior was a boy, and moulded in
orgo blocks to suit the taste of the manu
facturer.
A boose constructed of this material in
Georgia would not last very long when
exposed to your beating rains and long
damp days, but In tbis dry climate they
are as durable as any other houses, and
make the most comfortable house which
can bo constructed, being impervious to
both heat and cold.
To enable your readers to form an in
telligent idea of tho modo of construction
and the manner of living, I will give a
brief description of one of tho houses I
visited—tho bouse of a " well-to-do"
Mexican. Fronting tho east was one
wing of tho house, about 100 feet long
and 20 feet wide j to the north another
wing, about 40 feet by 20, and on the
sonth a wing cf similar dimensions to
the ono on tho north — tho different
wings forming three sides of a parallelo
gram. Tho walls were very thick, and
built about twelro feet high; across
were laid heavy timbers, and these cov
ered with clay or mad. There was but
one doorway opening on tho outside of
the building, all the other doors and
windows opening on tho square or plaza
between the wings of tho bnilding. Tho
whole exterior p.esents a most nngainl;
XELL30* THE BEAUTIFUL.
•burros
and they 'constitute happy fami^^HI
a Mexican wants is his blanket, pipej
dog, dried beef or mutton, stale bread
and red pepper, and $20 per month, and
he is as happy as a King. He knows
nothing and cares for nothing but his
sheep and to them no seems much at
tached, and tbo affection seems recipro
cal for he fondles them as a child wonld
a kitten. It is only within a few years
past that tho American population have
taken any interest in sheep growing, and
nearly all the breeds are unimproved.
The Mexican sheep are large, hardy,
hairy, and the wool is of bnt littlo Talue.
The American growers are introducing
blooded rams, and the flocks are being
rapidly transformed from " Mexican into
American sheep." The price of ewes is
about two dollars per head, and the in
crease is very rapid. I was conversing
with an old aheep grower a few day*
since, and we began to figure tho profits
of the business, and I made orcr one
hundred per cent, profits on the capital
invested per annum —he stopped me and
said my calculations were too largo, “that
accidents would happen ” and his experi
ence taught him tost it was unsafe to
calculate more than from 60 to 75 per
cent, profits per'annam. The wool dipped
will always more than pay all the ex-
pe&ses incident to the business and the
increase is clear profit.
Trinidad is located on the Pargatorie
river, just at the foot of Fisher's Peak,
and is the largest town south of Pueblo,
and U quite a city in it* may. It has a
population of about two thousand, about
three-fourths of which is Mexican. The
town is built on the table land jnst above
the river bottoms. It has but one street,
and this is about thirty feet wide. There
are no irrigating ditches, and conse
quently no trees, shrubbery, grass or
flowers—nothing bnt the narrow, hard,
dusty street, and the queer houses which
line it—some of mud, stone, brick, and
lumber; here is a house of adobe clay,
with fiat roof, the whole not more than
twelve feet high, and next to it is a fine
brick store, granite front, with French
plate-glass windows, etc. lake some
other Colorado houses, it present* some
strange and striking contrasts- I sat on
the su ps of the United State* Hotel and
watched by the hour the crowds come ana
go along that narrow street, and could
not weary of the scene, for it was so
novel, so unlike anything I had ever seen
Here would come the well dressed,
well fed, qnick, energetic Yankee mer
chant, full of business—no time to stop,
and making money aU the time. Hole,
too, is his'Jewish neighbor; he glances at
each passer, bows to all, stops to shake
hands with some; he has a clothing and
fancy store, in fact, anything you want,
be you man, woman or child. This well
dressed, dark skinned man. with oosrs*
black hair and a thin, dried-up mous
tache and whiskers, is Garda, a Mexican
politician of local celebrity. This tall,
slender, heavy moustached individual
just passing, who is too nervous to stop,
and yrt whossfanidtirs-tlass blue eye sera
everybody, is Geo. UryUs. Ten year*
ago he drove a stage at |2S per month.
Now he is a lawyer of aome prominency,
a banker, and a man of wealth. This
man just nooning, dressed in n fall Mtt of
■ * — ’ - - -
uninviting appearance. On the inside
the general appearance of things is
very different, and everything looks
cheerful and pleasant. The walls
are nicely plastered, and their snowy
whiteness is seldom marred by the
slightest speck or spot. Tho main hall
was about GO feet in length, and is used
os a reception, eating and dancing room,
the latter being indispensable. In the
houso ore no chairs, bed-steads or sofa3;
their bedding serves for seats. Mat
tresses, pillows, counterpanes, etc., arc
piled alongside of the wall, and make
quite a comfortable and inviting scat.
The bedding is made largely of wool—
wool mattresses, counterpanes, pillows,
etc. Counterpanes are well-made, and
usually beautifully dyed. Pillow-slips
or cases are never white; they are of
linen or cotton material, and are fringed,
and—and—well, I don’t know just the
word to nso; hut to say the least, they
are fanciful beyond the descriptive
powers of a man. As to colors, you
might as well attempt to describe the
colors of a case full of ribbons—most any
color can bo found. As soon as the visitor
is seated, a waiter with glasses, bottle,
etc., is passed around, and we are expect
ed to imbibe; politeness demands this
much. This is followed by smoking
tobacco and pieces of corn-shacks cut in
tho right size and shape for cigarettes,
matches, etc. If he is notan adept in
making cigarettes, nimble fingers will
soon roll ono in Bhape for him. Tho
Mexicans are proverbially hospitable and
polite, and the guest can eat, drink,
smoke, danco and he marry. Their hos
pitality will place all they hnvo at tho
disposal of their gnests, oven to tho selec
tion of a bed-fellow.
Bat few Mexicans speak tho English
language. They seem to prefer their
own corrupted Spanish jargon. They are
a litigious people, and are eternally in
the courts. The witnesses are examined
through tho medium of interpreters, and
often an entire jury will bo composed of
Mexicans, and then an attorney who
knows nothing of their language is placed
in truly an embarrassing position, and
ran only address the jury through tho
medium of an interpreter. Imagine an
illiterate Mexican translating one of an
attorney's happiest efforts into a language
he cannot understand, and it just on the
spur of tho moment. Tho smilo which
often flits over the face of the jury shows
the effect which the address is having.
Mr. EMerkin, tho delegate to Congress
from New Mexico, is the happiest man in
the West before a Mexican jury. He
speaks Spanish os fluently as his mother
toBgue, and can readily move a jury to
tears. He claims that he has lost to a
great extent the power of speaking his
own language so as to work upon the
sympathies of his hearers. Tho Spanish
language being a softer language, it is
ever on tho tongue's end to express the
gentler feelings of the heart.
I have written much more than I de
signed, and for fear of wearying your
readers I will close. Quid Air.
Grant's “Dry Nurse.”
The Hartford Times' Washington cor
respondent writes as follows of General
Babcock, who is generally known in that
city as Grant’s "Dry Nurse" :
It is a small business for a United
States officer to be steward of the White
House. General Babcock sits in a room
adjoining the President's cabinet- He
receives cards, and decides who shall be
admitted and who refused audience.
While thus engaged a messenger will
come from the private apartments of
Mrs. Grant with a message. The Madame
wants him to see about hanging a pic
ture, or more tin-pan3 are needed for the
kitchen, or the harnesses are out of
order, or there is soma domestic affair
that he must attend to. He also has to
keep a close watch upon his liege lord,
for that great man is sometimes unfit to
be seen, and Gen. Babcock mu3t cover up
and conceal the matter. He must also
be ready at a moment's notice to accom
pany the President upon his travels.
Now, Babcock has a wife and children.
Bnt he forsakes them all to do his_ mas
ter’s bidding. He grows fat and rich in
the double capacity of President’s secre
tary and steward. Speaking of Gen. B.,
quite an amusing thing happened last
winter in social life. Gen. Babcock’s
rank in the army is that of major. A
distinguished officer, who is on frontier
doty, and who ranks Major Babcock,
was visiting this city ; and Mrs. Babcock
called upon the officer’s wife, who wo*
staying at the Arlington Hotel. 3b*
wrote on her card:

From the Brooklyn Sosdsy Son.)
Toe matter which is now creating the
most excitement in dramatic circles on
this aide of the ocean is the revelation
which has recently taken place in Eng
land regarding the private Kfc of Hiss
Adelaide Neilson Lee, and which has
shown that charming lady to the world
in anything bnt a. pleasant light to
herself, though no doubt it hat been
highly pleasant to the world.

mati^fa The lady aspired to and sae-
ceedeMs being introdured into some of
the best families here. She cams Wei
with several very good letters of intro
duction, and with a husband who had
every appearance of a gentleman at first
The letter* are from high-toned
people on the other side, and described
Mr*. Neilson-Lee aa a remarkably virtu
ous and even austere woman, while her
husband was stated to be the son of a
clergyman in the best repute in the
Church of England.
AH this, of course, helped Mia Neil
son in her monetary success. People
who don’t often go to theatres went to
tee her because she was such an excellent
She had plenty of money, spent
It freely, and dressed her husband well
and let him have ill the money he
wonted. Everybody votes Mia Neilson
a pretty woman and a good actress,
while her husband was sot down to be an
inoffensive, kind-hearted tort of on ass.
Subsequent occurrence* have proven him
to bo more knave than fool. After the
season was over, in the spring el 1873,
Mia Neilson went to England, spent
some months there, and came back in
the fall and played a second engager
over the country. Sho returned to Eng
land onco more in the
ent year, and there became, no doubt
very unwillingly, the most central,
because the best known, figure in one of
tho most celebrated dirorce suits which
have interested a country excessively
productive of tho article. For if any
thing more than another eould tend to
destroy the genmally accepted delusion
of the perfection of
domestic vrertta nr exoland,
it would be record* of tho Divorce Court
first brought into being by that wonder
ful cynic, but great lawor. Sir Cromwell-
Cresswcll, who was its presiding Jud;
for so many years. This particular <
vorcecaso of wbieb we speak was one
which would have delighted that gentle
man to try. It became known as the
case of Birch vs. Birch, in which Mrs.
Eleanor Birch, of Manchester, in the
county of Lancashire, sued her lawful
husband, Thomas Birch, a wealthy cotton
spinner, on the ground of adultery, for di
vorce and alimony. What gave the case
it* most peculiar interest was tho fact
that Miss Neilson alias Mrs. Philip Lee,
was tho co-respondent in the case. Such
a legal existence os co-respondent is not
known on this tide of tho Atlantic, but it
may bo described as the thirl party to
tho suit, and the one upon whom, indeed,
the case mainly rests. Tho accusation
made by Mrr. Birch was that in tbo sum
mer of 1873. her husband, Thomas Birch,
had committed adultery with tho before-
named co-respondent. Miss Adelaide
Kcilson-Lee.
Tho case was taken before a jury and
the Lord Chief Baron of England tried
it on the Northern Circuit at Leeds dur
ing the past summer.
Upon the trial, which occupied several
days, the facts developed were of the
most interesting character, and were, of
course, sworn to by witnesses. It appears
that Mr. Thomas Birch became acquaint
ed with Miss Neilson, an actress at ono
of the theatres in London, and that tho
acquaintance ripened into a friendship
which Mr. Birch did not conceal from his
wife, who, of course, never doubted its
entire innocence. Some timo after Miss
Neilson was engaged to play a round of
her characters in Manchester, the city
where Mr. and Mrs. Birch resided. The
husband proposed to his wife to invite
Mr. and Mrs. Leo to their house during
the time they should remain in Manches
ter, to which the wife freely consented.
The invitation was given and accepted,
and upon the arrival of Mr. and Mrs. Lee
in Manchester, they immediately repaired
to the residence of Mr. Birch, which was
a little way out of tho city, and one of
tho most magnificent country houses in
England. Miss Neilson performed at the
theatre, and Mr. and Mrs. Birch, accom-
ied by Mr. Lee, attended nightly.
. Birch found her guests charming
company, and all went on very well for a
week. At this time one of Mrs. Birch’s
near relations fell seriously ill in a distant
part of tho country, and it became
necessary for her to leavo home and pay
A VISIT TO HER SICK RELATIVE.
Mr. Birch entirely approved of the re
solve, and it was resolved between them
that her absence should make no dijjer-
ence in tho continuation of the stay of
Mr. and Mrs. Leo at their house. The
wife departed, and left Mr. Birch
and Mr. and Mrs. Lee at home
behind her, and they all mani
fested so much interest as to accompany
her a portion of tho way on her journey.
They returned to the home of Mr. Birch,
and then came tho act of which Mrs.
Birch complained. It appears that at
least on two nights which were testified
to, Mrs Neilson-Leo left her husband to
sleep alone on a sofa in a lower room,
while she repaired np stairs to the bed of
Mr. Birch, and there remained. In the
testimony which was adduced this fact was
clearly proven, though the motive which
induced tho alleged complaisanco on tho
part of Mr. Leo was not shown. It ap
peared, however, that Mr. Birch rewarded
Mre. Lee by several handsome and costly
presents.
Soon after tho expiration of the en
gagement of Miss Neilson at Manches
ter Mr. and Mrs. Lee left tho house of
Mr. Birch, and before the return of the
wife. The latter learned the facts of the
case some time after through the ser
vants of the house, and she immediately

A Wrens Custom Corrected.
It is quite generally tho custom to take
strong liver stimulants for tho cure of
liver complaint, and both tho mineral
and vegetable kingdoms have been dili-
gently searched to procure tho mo3t
drastic and poisonous purgatives, in order
to produce a powerful effect upon the
liver, and arouse the lagging and enfee
bled organ. This system of treatment is
on the same principle as that of giving a
wo-k and debilitated man largo portions
of brandy to enable him to do a certain
amount of work. When the stimulant is
withheld, tho organ,, like tho system,
gradually relapses into a more torpid or
sluggish and 'weakened condition than
before. What then is wanted? Medi
cines which, while they cause the bilo to
fiov.- freely from the liver, as that organ
is toned into action, will not overwork
and thus debilitate it, but will, when
their use is discontinued, leave the
liver strengthened and healthy. Such
remedies are found in Dr. Pierce’s Gold

Macon. Oa.. October 12.187* IS Sm
JEWETT & BOGfEBS,
left her husband and entered the suit
for diToice. Upon this showing the jury
granted Mrs. Birch the divorce and ali
mony for which she prayed.
Thecaso was reported at great length
in tho English papers, and caused no
small sensation- Miss Neilson was, of
course, in consequence
TABOOED FROM ALL RESPECTABLE SOCIETY,
and the case was cause, in fact, of a sep
aration between Mr. and Mrs. Lee. Who
was the ono that insisted on this is not
known, bnt it is probable that while
Mr. Philip Leo could possibly stand his
wife’s infidelity, and even almost consent
to it, he could not stand its eclat and
the anything but enviable position in
which his own wretched conduct placed
him. In any case he no doubt thought
it unhealthy for him to visit America
this season.
It was almost immediately after the
trial of the case, and still smarting from
its disgrace, that Miss Neilson came hack
here. While, singular to say, few people
seemed to have heard of it here, so inter
esting a piece of information soon got
noised abroad and known, spite of the ex
traordinary efforts put faith to - keep it
out of the papers.
The whispered knowledge of the affair
has had a damning effect npon Mias Neil
son's future career here. The society
which received her before with open arm's
refused to have anythingfurther to do with
her, and to that extent that her business
at tiie Lyceum Theatre in New York was
a losing one from beginning to end.
While we lament and deplore this nn-
charitableness on the part of the public,
which, after all, has nothing to do with
an artist’s private life, we’re afraid the
knowledge of the affair may have the
■SCO effect upon iliss Neiiscn's bu-;r.- -.
during her coming engagement in Brook
lyn that it has in New York. We speak,
therefore of the whole affair more in sor
row than in anger, for no doubt the ca
reer of a mediocre actress, but rather
pretty young woman, is quite blasted by
the expose-. It is a great pity, hat then
no woman ever had less excuse to go
astray, and the public will probably look
at it in this way. Much as we may con
demn the woman, however, what ean be
..id of the man who consented to her dis
honor, and probably found no small profit
in it?
In all matter* of this kind Brooklyn is
somewhat straight-laced, and the knowl
edge of this story will probably insure
gro, wss under inai :or str.xmg
Price over the head repeatedly with a
brae-baH bat, from the effect whereof the ^ ^ w fa* to
latter died soon after. Both parties were ■'several stories of the kind
negroes. The defense proved that Price
engaged to furnish a certain negro woman
with the mean* either of attaching Doug
las to herself and of preventing him from
marrying the gtri to whom he wae en
gaged. or of otherwise fixing him; and it
was also proved that Price delivered the
woman a'bottle of liquid with rusty pins
at the bottom, far which be charged two
dollars, and which wsw to be made up into
a cake and presented to Deogtaa*. The
plea is set up in Douglass' behalf that,

bad been whispered about Miss Neilscn
before her marriage, is one of which she
is said to hare eloped with Prince Tech,
husband of Princess Mary, of Cambridge,
and that the Queen found it necessary to
follow them both to Prussia and make
the princely scion return. Miss Neilson
letting him go for a consideration from
the Queen. But of course marriage cov

she would do any more of this sett of
