The historian s.tys; Thc guides conducted the general to uvlra In forty-eight days, tor they had travelled too much in the direction of Florida. At tjuivir thpy found neither gold nor silver, and learning' from the Turk that he had at the instance of tho people of Cicnye pnrposely decoyed the anny into th tar to kill the horse and thus mak the men helploss, and tall an easy pity to tha mtives, and that all he said about the great (Quantity of silver and gold to he totted was false, they strangled him. Indians of this region, so far from having: large quantities of gold and silver, did not know these metals. The Cacique wore on his breast a cojv-per plate, of which he nude a great paratle, which he would not have done had he known anything- about the pre-cieus metals." The following quaint description is jriven of the Great Pialnt over Which the cihausted Spaniards wandered after the treachery of II Turco, and they were obliged to retrace their march to Tiguex half-famished. "From Cieuye they went to Q.iivir.

All that way of plains are as fullol crooked-backed oxen, as the mountain Serrena in Spain is of sheep, but tiiere is no such people as keep those cattle. They were a great succor for the hungry and want of bread which our people stood in need of. One day it rained in that plain a great shower of halt as big as orarges, which caused many tears, weakness, and bowes.

There is no cotton, an I tlw natives of that country apparel themselves with ox-hides and deer skins. Many of our people sought to have dwelt there, but Ccronado weuld not consent, saying; they could not maintain, nor defend themselves in so poor a country, asid so far from succor.

Tlie historian says: "After a jour- iiey of five days from Tiguex.

Alvara-do arrived at Cic.tye a vey- well fortified village, the houses ot which are four stories Cicuye ii built in a narrow valley in the midst of mountains covered with pi ies. It is traversed by a small stream, in which we caught some excellent trout." Mr. K. S. Squier, Mr.

Kern, aed CoT Simpson nave determine tho ruins of" Pecos fn the Rio Pecos to be the Cicuye of Coronado. They are '-situated in a narrow valley in the midst of pines and the site is traversed by a small silvery stream in which can be found some excellent trout," says tho histo rian. I well remember how nearly twelve years ago. I gazed with strairge feelings the first tinnj Upon the ruins Pecos It was early morning in October, and the wind blew delicious an 1 crisp fronl the tops of the silvery pines piled up in the rocky canons on either side To be an immencs number of small animals resembling squirrels, and numerous holes burrowed by them in the earth." Arellano arrived at Tiguex in July 1541, and sent out another expedition under Captain Francisco de Barrio Nu-evo to ascend the river (Rio Grande). On this march they found a largs village which, the inhabitants called Braba, but which the Spaniards re-christened Vallaoid, it was built ou the two banks of the river which wa? by bridges built with nicely squ ired timber." Stiil another expidition was seni by Arellano south ironi Tiguex, fcr r.bout three hundred miles where they found four more villages, and reachcd a place where the river plunged beneath the ground; but.

inasmuch, as their orders confined them to a distance of eighty leagues, they did not push on to the place where, according to tte Indian's accounts, this si ream escapes again from the crth with augmented volume." Meanwhile jii d' Arellano became alarmed for the safety of Coronado who should have returned by this time according to his express declara-tsod4 the Don set cut in search of him i.i prrro.i, taking w.th hli forty and made of it one of the Finest Hotels in the Valley.
