At the time of attained from the U.S. infactory to the fa Written for the Gazette. HOW I WAS ABSENT FROM MY OWN WEDDING. I had tired of the service of the Republic of Colombia, in which I held the commission of Chief of Engineers; and, being young and single, as well as fond of adventure, had determined to ride from Bogota to Buenos Ayres. This feat had never been attempted, and that it was a dangerous undertaking, in fact almost impossible, only strengthened my resolution. I therefore, resigned my position, and, on a beautiful morning in the early part of 1869, rode forth for the last time from Santa Fe de Bogota. The general route I had determined upon, subject, however, to capricious variation, was the following: Passing by the famous cataract of Tequendama, I intended to descend the western slope of the lofty Eastern Cordillera (called Sumapaz—perfect peace) to the great valley of the Upper Magdalena. Crossing this I would climb the broad central range of the Andes in order to descend into the glorious Cauca valley. Then, turning southward, I should ride up the valley to Popayan, whence it was my intention to go to Lima, by way of Pasto, Tuquerres, Ibarra and Quito. Thence my road lay through the Republic of Bolivia to the head-waters of the river La Plata, and adown its valley to my destination. I was blessed with good health and its attendant cheerfulness, had money enough to take me far on my way and a passing good man. of my Catholicity and of my being free to marry—for I was a widower—but the Spanish priest of Buga, who wished me to marry a relative of his own, had refused to perform the ceremony until I had produced evidence to show that I had not married again. This extraordinary requisition it was impossible to satisfy—for no man can prove that he is not married. The family of the lady were averse to a civil marriage, although this is in law as binding as one blessed by mother church; and I was at my wits' end, not knowing how to overcome the good father's objection, when a friend, a lady whose family has been prominent in that country since the days of the conquest, and whose cousin was acting for the Bishop of Popayan, then absent in Rome, came to my aid. Through her kind offices the parish priest of Buga was ordered to marry me forthwith, so that vexations point was settled. Meanwhile it became evident to me that I could not go to the Cauca for many months, and the same kind lady suggested that I should be married by proxy, a not uncommon way of marrying in the South, where distances are practically so great. She herself had been married in this manner—her husband being at the time President of the Republic—and she daughter to his predecessor. An example so eminent certainly might be followed; and, having obtained the consent of her I was to wed and that of her family, I sent my duly attested power of attorney to Buga, and expected to learn, by each succeeding post, that I was a married man. head, rode in advance. Regaining the main path, we proceeded in single file and in silence along it. The rain was now falling in torrents; I could not even see my mule's ears, and trusted entirely—as I had done so often before—to her marvelous instinct. At length she came to a halt, and I, supposing that a fallen tree barred the way, dismounted. I was encumbered by my encauchado, or poncho of rubber, and my gun. I walked forward cautiously, but suddenly the ground gave way beneath my feet, and I was precipitated into a hole in the ground. I knew what it was—a guaca, or Indian grave. The Indians buried their dead on the ridges of the mountains, along which the trails also lie, and with them intertwined their golden ornaments. To rifle these sepulchres was the main object of Badillo and his conquistadores, and to this day considerable amounts of gold are obtained from these graves, although they do not invariably contain treasure. An Antiquoerian, when all other means of support fail him, becomes a sepulturero, and "prospecta" among the guacas. Whether successful or not he never thinks of filling up the hole he has dug, even though it be in the public highway, and into one of these I had fallen. Fortunately the excavation was not very deep; had I been precipitated into another hole just beyond it, the guaca would have served me, also, for a resting place, for it was at least thirty feet in depth, while at the bottom was a sharp ridge of rock. With the aid of my assistant I scrambled out of the guaca, and gave orders to bivouac where young men swept past there with lights in paddle boards sign that they among escape bound working ed the diathely die in the might of the raft.

Here I was obliged unwillingly to halt, because of an injury which threatened to involve the loss of a hand, and here I remained many weeks. Here, too, I met the fate that, sooner or later, comes to all of us; and, no longer regretting my enforced detention, would have remained willingly in that charmed place. My long sojourn there had almost exhausted my finances; and, leaving the side of my promised wife, I accepted the chief engineership of the Buenaventura road, the outlet of the Cauca valley by which its products should reach the Pacific at Buenaventura. In this service I remained until I was summoned by Dr. Berris, President of the State of Antisquia, to fill the important position of State Engineer of the common wealth. It was a three weeks' ride from Buga to La Villa de Nuestro Senora de la Candelaria de Medellin, the delightful capital of Sumapaz—perfect peace) to the great valley of the Uttar Magdalena.

The swiftcurrentofthemid-channel soon It was a three weeks' ride from Buga to La Villa de Nuestro Senora de la Candelaria de Medellin, the delightful capital of Antioquia, and immediately on my arrival I entered into office. Antioquia lies between the rivers Magdalena and Cauca, occupying the country from their junction southward to the State and valley of Cauca. This vast region is more mountainous than Switzerland, and its ways of communication are mere rude bridle-paths over the Cordillera, such as in California we call trails. A law of the Legislature of the State had provided for the construction of a road from the capital to a point on one of its three great rivers to which steamboats could ascend at all seasons of the year; and I, accordingly, at once undertook a series of reconnoissances for the purpose of determining which of these routes was the best. In these labors I spent many weeks. I had explored a route northward adown the valley of the Abrurra, on the bank of which Medellin is situated, and thence eastward over the Cordillera to the Magdalena. I had examined that which lay to the southwestward, crossing the Cauca and the mountain range between this river and the Atrato, and terminating at this latter stream, and there remained for exploration only that which, going northwestward, sought the Cauca below the Falls of El Rosario. On my arrival at Medellin I had informed the President of my engagements in the Cauca, and he had promised me leave of absence to go and marry. But he was very anxious that this preliminary work should be completed, and that the construction of the road should be commenced. It would have taken at least two months for me to have gone to Buga and to have returned with my wife; so Dr. Berris excised his prerogative, and revoked my leave of absence. At the time of my engagement I had obtained from the United States evidence, sat-in factory to the family which I was to enter, but we plodded on through the mire, our patient mules serambling up slippery, rocky ascents and sliding down descents equally dangerous, though all the time we were descending gradually, until just at nightfall, we reached the only habitation existing in that wilderness. We had ridden eight leagues, a very good day's journey under the circumstances, and were glad to dismount. This tambo was a miserable shelter, for its sides were of unwattled poles, while the rain came down in many places through the badly thatched roof. The poor woodman, who, with his wife and four little ones, inhabited the house, did all that lay in his power to make us comfortable, and the night wore away at length. I had learned many things essential to the comfort of the traveler in the forests of the tropics, and among these that the baggage should always be kept in advance. So I sent off the impedimenta an hour before I and my companions mounted, and we saw neither servants nor luggage until the afternoon of the next day—for they pushed on so rapidly that they reached the site of the ancient Valdivia at an early hour, and there awaited us. As it was a fine morning we loitered along, for I was confident of what Espinoza said, and believed that it was but a short ride to the place referred to. We ate our lunch by the side of a pool into which a romantic little cataract fell, and sat smoking there until it was nearly three o'clock. The sun was now obscured by clouds, and by night it would be raining. We pricked along, therefore, at a good pace, in the endeavor to catch up with the pack mules whose tracks were plainly to be seen. At length, just before dusk, we came to where a faintly-indicated path branched off to the right, and this, Espinoza declared, was a short cut to the place where we were going. The tracks of the park animals indicated that they had kept on along the main path, but the guide was so positive that I consented to take the bye-path. Soon after we entered thus it began to rain, and the nights came upon us with astonishing rapidity. It had been very apparent to me, from the appearance of the undegrowth, that this path had been unused for several months, though Espinoza scouted the idea, and presently our further advance became impossible because a land slide had carried away the road, and a yawning chasm was before us. I ordered the guide to the rear, and turning my mule's was in very bad condition.

GAZETTE. 1881. NO. 40 Regaining the main single file and in sixty was now falling in upon see my mule's as I had done so velous instinct. At it, and I, supposing the way, dismounted by my encauchado, my gun. I walked suddenly the ground out, and I was pre-ground. I knew Indian grave. The end on the ridges of which the trails, also, freed their golden order, sepalches was the and his conquistadores, valuable amounts of gold case graves, although contain treasure. An other means of supra is a sepulturero, and guacas. Whether never thinks of filling even though it be in into one of these I by the excavation was been precipitated into and it, the guaca would for a resting place, for set in depth, while at ridge of rock. With I scrambled out of holders to bivouac where young moon, was now upon us. As we swept past a point called Apavi, where there were two or three houses, I saw the lights in them, and heard the sound of a paddle dropping in the bottom of a canoe—a sign that its owner was landing. Caceras was now but a short distance below us. This hamlet is not situated on the main river, but on what Mississippi boatmen call a "alough." Below this place the river is full of snags, among which in the darkness we could not escape destruction, for the vines which bound the logs of our raft together were now working loose. I shouted out that we needed the canoe to rescue us, and almost immediately heard the welcome sound of the paddle in the water. In order that the canoe might catch us the quicker, I ordered that the raft should be paddled toward the bank. This bend of the river is called the "Tigre" or Tiger, because it is at the head of a dangerous rapid of the same name. Here the river ran like a mill race among the trees, and, as we were swept in among them, I ordered that all should catch a branch as large round as one's leg, which stretched out across our path. The order was obeyed, but the branch broke between my servant, who was at the upper end of the raft, and myself. Our momentum was checked so suddenly, however, that the raft turned completely over, and when I rose to the surface I struck it with my head, on which my hat still rested. As I went under the surface I saw the canoe shoot by me in the open water. I thought quickly, too, but my thinking was confined to three subjects—that she who was four hundred miles away up this same river which might so soon be my grave, would possibly be a widow ere she was a wife; that my poor servant was drowning and I helpless to save him; and that the river was too high for the alligators to venture out from the tributary streams into which they had followed the fish escaping from the freshet.

We saw the Indians destroying the ruins of the old still, while in the implements, household were found occasionally. Every far distant, and every afternoon we arrived at recreation. At Valdivia was very much swollen running at the rate of an hour between steep hills from the cliffs. At a new port the forest hedge, and in places among the trees. In case it would have been Caceres, nine leagues doubtful whether even a man brought up the river canon, so I resolved to desist from craft. In this region gently a tree called balsa which indicates the uses This timber is almost as old in general use along its tributaries for confluence like, down stream. By resembling the balsa is Carida, or bastard balsa, mistaken for it—as hapace. But it is not so our raft had been conceived that it would not suit myself, my assistant, the baggage. It was now our raft had been conceived that it would not suit myself, my assistant, the baggage. It was now our raft had been conceived that it would not suit yourself, my assistant, the baggage. It was now our raft had been conceived that it would not suit yourself, my assistant, the baggage. It was now our raft had been conceived that it would not suit yourself, my assistant, the baggage. It was now our raft had been conceived that it would not suit yourself, my assistant, the baggage. We had gone down stream so far before being rescued that two hours elapsed before we reached Apavi. The people living here were negroes, and on our arrival the women were all kneeling before a sort of shrine, composed of common colored lithographs of many saints illuminated by all the tallow dips in their possession, and were praying energetically for the wrecked ones. These hospitable persons also provided for us a hot supper and such dry clothing as their scanty store afforded, and I, at least, slept soundly that night. On the morrow I went to Caceres, one of the earliest Spanish settlements, but now containing only a few squallid negroes and mestizos, where I was forced to remain six days; for until the expiration of that time the flood did not abate, and though I possessed a document from the President of the State commanding all subordinate authorities to obey such requisitions as I might make, no crew could be found which would undertake the labor of poling a canoe up the swollen stream. I was very anxious to return to Medellin, for the object of my journey was accomplished, and I was well satisfied that steamboats could not ascend the Cauca to Valdivia, while I was fearful lest a false report of my death might reach Buga. At length, partly by threats and partly by liberal promises, I induced six of the best bogas (watermen) to take me to Valdivia. The river was still so swollen that I spent five days in ascending the stream for nine leagues—a distance which I had descended in less than four hours. I found my assistant ignorant of my fate, while fearing that I had been lost, and overjoyed to see me in safety. Leaving my party to follow, I pushed on to Yarumal, riding the distance in a day. A myself was checked so suddenly, however, that the raft turned completely over, and when I rose to the surface I struck it with my head, on which my hat still rested. As I went under the surface I saw the canoe shoot by me in the open water. I thought quickly, too, but my thinking was confined to three subjects—that she who was four hundred miles away up this same river which might so soon be my grave, possibly be a widow ere she was a wife; that my poor servant was drowning and I helpless to save him; and that the river was too high for the alligators to venture out from the tributary streams into which they had followed the fish escaping from the freshet. But at such times one does not mangle the novelists, think much; all one's energies are continued to action. I swim well; and letting the raft pass over me, I clambered upon it just as it emerged from among the trees. While in the water I had received a blow on the head which half stunned me, and my legs were wounded by submerged branches, but otherwise I was unharmed. I found myself sole occupant of the raft. I called my servant by name, but received no reply. I then called to Espinoza, and he answered from between my petacas (hide boxes), which were floating near by. These, and what other baggage floated, we recovered, and then got into the canoe, which meanwhile had come alongside. My servant's fate now claimed all my attention, and we all shouted continually as the canoe was pooled slowly up the river. At length we heard a cry which I thought was that of a sloth, an animal which travels only at night and then cries out like a man lost in the woods. But our rescuers (for they were two) said that the cry was that of a man; and they were better woodmen than I, for presently we came upon the lad, who luckily had thrown his arm around the branch which broke between me and him, and, being left partly in the air and partly in the water, had managed to climb to a secure position in the tree. Thus a great load was taken off my mind. We had gone down stream so far before being rescued that two hours elapsed before we reached Apavi. The people living here were negroes, and on our arrival the women were all kneening before a sort of shrine, composed of common colored lithographs of many saints illuminated by all the tallow dips in their possession, and were praying energetically for the wrecked ones.

On the morrow I went to Caceres, one of the earliest Spanish settlements, but now containing only a few squallid negroes and mestizos, where I was forced to remain six days; for until the expiration of that time the flood did not abate, and though I possessed a document from the President of the State commanding all subordinate authorities to obey such requisitions as I might make, no crew could be found which would undertake the labor of poling a canoe up the swollen stream. I was very anxious to return to Medellin, for the object of my journey was accomplished, and I was well satisfied that steamboats could not ascend the Cauca to Valdivia, while I was fearful lest a false report of my death might reach Buga. At length, partly by threats and partly by liberal promises, I induced six of the best bogas (watermen) to take me to Valdivia. The river was still so swollen that I spent five days in ascending the stream for nine leagues—a distance which I had descended in less than four hours. I found my assistant ignorant of my fate, while fearing that I had been lost, and overjoyed to see me in safety. Leaving my party to follow, I pushed on to Yarumal, riding the distance in a day. A myself was checked so suddenly, however, that the raft turned completely over, and when I rose to the surface I struck it with my head on which my hat still rested. As I went under the surface I saw the canoe shoot by me in the open water. I thought quickly, too, but my thinking was confined to three subjects—that she who was four hundred miles away up this same river which might so soon be my grave, possibly be a widow ere she was a wife; that my poor servant was drowning and I helpless to save him; and that the river was too high for the alligators to venture out from the tributary streams into which they had followed the fish escaping from the freshet. But at such times one does not mangle the novelists, think much; all one's energies are contained to action. I swim well; and letting the raft pass over me, I clambered upon it just as it emerged from among the trees. While in the water I had received a blow on the head which half stunned me, and my legs were wounded by submerged branches, but otherwise I was unharmed. I found myself sole occupant of the raft. I called my servant by name, but received no reply. I then called to Espinoza, and he answered from between my petacas (hide boxes), which were floating near by. These, and what other baggage floated, we recovered, and then got into the canoe, which meanwhile had come alongside. My servant's fate now claimed all my attention; and we all shouted continually as the canoe was pooled slowly up the river. At length we heard a cry which I thought was that of a sloth, an animal which travels only at night and then cries out like a man lost in the woods. But our rescuers (for they were two) said that the cry was that of a man; and they were better woodmen than I, for presently we came upon the lad, who luckily had thrown his arm around the branch which broke between me and him, and being left partly in the air and partly in the water, had managed to climb to a secure position in the tree. Thus a great load was taken off my mind. We had gone down stream so far before being rescued that two hours elapsed before we reached Apavi.

It was now that he was anxious to reach the set-fall; I, therefore, told me and his servant could find that if I needed him at hand a canoe to him.

On one of my thoroughly terrified boy and began to pray vigorously telling him in rather forlorn this was a time for padding, he went on paddling candles innumerable to Lady of Copacabana. I the fellow could not swim; before embarking I should him with me, but it was any of us to get ashore. The mouth of a small tribune, called the Candeba, I got to enter its mouth, for the same name was situated the distance of half a league. We had previously stripped, body for emergencies, and I, a laso in my hand, plunged and endeavored to check the branches of overhanging trees were in vain, however, and in lacerating my hand seated now coming on in the deep river, and a driving rain cut off. Just below this point to ascend the river makes a left. On the convex side a bestling cliff called the "Ig-against which many a canoe is to pieces, while on the opposite three jagged rocks, called piedras, almost equally丹ely for us the river was so crafts could pass over these thus escaped "our holy sapinoza termed it. At this end my boy paddled like good spraying earnestly — prayers one's case finally blended into the reverse of godly when the had been passed. We are to have, it appears, another new version of the New Testament, to be known as "the American version," and we are told authoritatively that it has been copyrighted under that name. The fact that the "readings and renderings proposed by the American committee of revision" have been published in a separate list—such as them, at least, as were not adopted by the English revisors—has vexed the minds of some people, who cannot bear that anything American should be made to take a back seat, and certain others who are not willing to acknowledge that there can be any appeal from the judgment of the American committee. So these readings and renderings which were not approved in England are to be incorporated into the text, and this new version is to be published as "the American version" par excellence (as the publisher modestly entitle it). We have nothing to say either about the title or the incorporation of these readings into the text; but as it is easier to start a thing than to say when it will stop after being once started, this thing will probably go on until every one who is dissatisfal with any portion of the so-called revision shall put forth a new revision of his own. After five or six of these have appeared we shall see, most probably, that much-to-be-desired consummation —every one, scholars and all, turning to the old King James version with the grateful feeling that, after all, it is far better than anything that has been offered to take its place.—The Churchman, New York. Lord Chancellor. But in time equity became as highly artificial as the original body of laws. English equity is supposed to have come to an end with Lord Eldon. The modern method of modification is direct legislation. Frederick, therefore, had taken upon himself an unphilosophical fallout. So long as there is law, there will always be a necessity for some agency to modify it when it becomes too rigid and inelastic. But Frederick's effort had queer results in the case of Arnold, the miller. Frederick sent down a Board of Officers to examine the case. They, untrammeled by presidents, found the obvious fact that the miller had been injured, and should have damages. By order of the King the question was again referred to the courts, but the same result was reached as on the former trial. A second Board of Officers reported exactly as the first. The outcome was a scene in which the choleric ruler came into collision with his Supreme Court, kicked one of the Judges down stairs and threw some of the others into prison. The principle for which Frederick contended is a living principle to-day in California. It is the principle of the reparian owner for his share of the water flowing along his borders. Around the question cluster some of the largest problems with which we have to deal. Intimately connected with it is the irrigation, which is all that is required to convert a section of California into a sort of patent region where there never can be crop failures. If a decision can be reached that will settle, broadly and definitively, the rights of the matter, the prosperity of the State will be greatly increased. In the uncertainty that now prevails no energetic steps can be taken toward the reclamation of what may be called the acid regions.—S. F. Bulletin.
