IN the State of Nevada and the Territory of Ariaooa ooour the moat extensive natural atoree of salt In the United States. Not only are there salt springs, wells. lake* ?nnil?j ~*?h u?ius 01 salt in the deserts, but also immense deposits of roc It salt. In the early days of silrer mining on the Comstock lode salt, for use in the amalgamation of the ores, was brought orer the Sierra Nevada Mountains by teams, as it had boen aeon by tho emigrants to California in crossing the plains, but the owners of the teams could not be induced (o venture out into those great wastes and waterless tracts. In 1862 camels were brought to the Comstock mines for use in the deserts, and a train of fifteen of those animals was employod in packing salt from Sand Springs. This was in a desert of sand and alkali, about eighty miles cast of Virginia Gity. Wagon* being unci in the transportation of salt from this deposit, ns well as tho camels, the prico of the article was soon reduced to $60 a ton. Boon the occupation of the "ships of the floscrt'* was gone, prairie schooners" crowded them to the locks. They were sold to Muxictns, who used than in packing wood down tho mountains. Among tho rocks the poor brutes bccimo footsore, and by 1U usage wore reduce! to mere skeletons. They were then snl'i to a compassionate Frenchman who owned a ranch on the Carson Hivcr. Their new owner turned tho animals out to roam at will. The hitter and prickly shrubs cf our deserts being tho same as or akin to thoso of their nativo deserts, tho liord soon in crossed to over thirty, great and small. They were at last sold to parties in Arizona to ho used in picking ore from the mountains to mil Iff in tho va'leys. Tho Aria ma men soon turned tho whole herd loose to shift for themselves in tho wilderness. At last accounts they wore running wild on tho Gila Iiivcr, whore tliny find a congenial borne. Great quantities of pctrillod wood aro sccu in many places. In 101110 localities tho trunks of wholo trees, tlireo or four feet In diameter, I in stretched along tho ground. These nro now solid stone. Cloudbursts, sweeping the loil out of ravines and cutting tlirou ?h mountain lints, iiavo often brought to light thick strata of logs and houghs, or long lines of stumps ot largo troes standing or tlioy grew, tho roots and ali parts thoroughly petri lied. It is evident that at one tiino trees and vegetation must havo boon abundant in tho Great iiauu I legion, as it was tho home of animals uow only found in tho forests and jungles of tropical countrios.

Thc30 tracks look as fresh and distinct as those wo frequently see of domestic animals in the mud at and ahout ponds after tho soft material Uai ltun\eiiod \inddr tho heat of. tho sun. There aro tracks of olepljAints, rhinoceros, horse, deer, lions, t.i/gors, wolves, hyenas, of many kiuds of birds, large and small. There arc also tho tracks of what is supposed to have been a man of prehistoric times. Tho tracks nro such as might have been mado by n big-footed man. Tlie tracks of all tho larger anima's lead in one direction and all were evidently moving toward tho -ante object, which object must have been water?a lake or a spring. As tho soft mud, all now stone, is seen to luivb been squeeze i up or splashed aside by the feet of some of the heavy bents the tracks cuinot bo far from where lay tho ancient lake or pond, and by stripping til the sujicrincuiubcnL strata for a short distance further some woudcrlul discoveries might be made. The greatest single deposit of salt in Nevada is that which is sometimes tailed "Salt Mountain," and is u range f hills of pure rook salt, situated ita the iiuth western earner of the State, in Lin* : tin County. This mountain mass of oek salt is of unrivaled purity and posesses tho solidity of marble. It lies ou lie llio Virgin, a tributary of the Coloado lliver, in tho northern portion ol he Colorado basin. A solid wall of alt is exposed 011 each side of Cave Hill Janyon, which is so hard that it is ncc nsnry to blast it tlown. It is worked ike an open quarry ami the salt is taken nit in large blocks, which arc so transit rent that a newspaper can be read 'irough them. From this mountain 1 idgo of salt might lie quarried an i i.nount of that article sutliciunt to supply the whole United States for a ;oi. In several places in this region, Lincoln County, Ncv., and the adjoining country about Death Valley, t-'al., are found traces of former occupation by >omo race of civilized people, probably the Spanish. In the Kingston range of mountains, on the eastern face of Clarke .Mountain, near its summit, is a perpendicular clift of liinestouo 250 feet iu height aud with a smooth surface. On the face of thisclitT, at a height of 100 feet from its baso arc engraved tho following characters: "X L I).'1 The ;Toss and letters are of mammoth prooortions. being not less than sixty feet In height. Tlioy arc cut into the solid rock to a depth of two feet, and are plainly to he seen at a groat distance. No one in tho country knows how, when or by whom tho letters woro cut. The Indians living in tho vicinity have no tradition In regard to the inscription. As the inscription is in Human Utters and is preceded by a cross, it is supposed that the work was done by Jesuit missionaries, who nrc known to have sotniilialkA/l in mSaaiAna iua>tlm? n/\it # k uii/iiaiivu iu *uui# imOCJU/ili lUI VUUl nui.il/ll i:i Arizona.
