A numbey of Mexican native servants were obtained, and Espeje tot totted - ted totted out the party, tho necessary arms aud supplies including 115 horse* and mules were purchased. The start was mndg on the tenth day of November 1582, for the same yegion chat Coranado, a Spanish explora had visited some years before. JEspejt s route fyom San Batolome was up the Rio Grande to Jemes, visiting many villages on the way. From Jempz he followed a westerly course, arriving at i?uni; where he found many towns, they contained at that time over twenty thou thousand - sand thousand persons, here hp found many, crosses and three Christian Indians, they were natives of Culican and Guardalijara, Mexico, and had come with Coronajo some 40 years previous. These native Mexican Indiam. gave Espejo a full nar narrative - rative narrative of the explorations of Coronado's captain Dwn Bed to de Tobar in the VMit, strongly impressing Espejo of the spar sparcity - city sparcity of water aud pf the dangers to be beeucountered, - eucountered, beeucountered, also giving him a fabulous account of the people that had gold in jiiles, wearing gojden bracelets, earrings and other golden ornaments.

A MEMBER PF THE FAMILY. Bo tt\p BrltUtaer Coasidcrs tb« Newspaper of Uli| Chnlrc. Price Collier, writing 1 in t,h,e Forum, says that the newspaper is a member of the family in England, and regular regularly - ly regularly cosfpes to breakfast with the other members. The London Times is a kind of oldest son amongst newspapers, and Punch, the jolly bachelor uncle, who makes occasional visits. Englishmen take their newspapers into their confi confidence - dence confidence and have a half way of writing to them on all sorts of subjects. If an Englishman rows down the Thames and stops for luncheon at an inn and is overcharged, he writes to his news newspaper, - paper, newspaper, just as a little hoy runs in to complain to his mamma of the rough treatment of his playmates; and later on this first letter is followed by others, in which the comparative merits and cost of light luncheons on the conti continent - nent continent in Seringapntam, in Kamschntka. and everywhere else where Englishmen have eaten and drunk - and where have they not done these? - is discussed au fcncl If horses stumble and fall in Rotten Row there are letters on the subject which go into the mutter of road building, modern horsemanship, and the like, with quotations fpon Virgil and anecdotes of accidents that hap-, pened half a century ago. Of fiite there have teen many lettters concerning the. lynching of negroes in our. southern states, and here again John Ball, with his ponderous disregard of the fact that he jinows nothing at first hand, delivers himself paively, as usual, of his superficial omniscience. Not qnly the more serious weekly, but also the daily newspapers give one the impres impression - sion impression that they feel themselves to some extent responsible for the contempora contemporary - ry contemporary auditing of the accounts qf the day of judgment. On the other, hand the better class English newspapers do. pot indulge in rash suppositions, hqsty generalizations, uncertain guesses at probable future happenings, and {he daily exploitation of the personal snips of qqforiopa And qoe may be permitted to say diilident]y that perhaps this is preferable. If My. Balfour, foe examble, were to go abroad for a holiday, ii would be considered vuigqr to phronicle his finings aRd dinings, and absolutely brutal boorish to write particulars of the dress and behavior of his sister - or of his wife, if he hgd ope. The sense of fair, nlay of a nation of sportsmen does not permit an editor to tormept even lrisj enemy frpig behind a woman's petti-j coats. 4 erqri, TUtgfebwr.
