=" Capt. Fremont leaves Washington this evening,
on his way to the Ear West He will probably set
out from ST. LOUIS this, his third Expedition, on
d survey of The Rocky Mountains, and beyond
them, about the ls OF June. We have had the
pleasure of TWO interviews in this city with this
young and enterprIsIng tourist VINO goes out under
The authority and instructions OF his Government
We shall have something 70 say on his Expedition
IN few DAYS, and much more we hope, hereafter.
We never him before Saturday evening last,
hut IL is impossible 10 see the modest men and yet
flashing eye of this young man, without giving him
al once good Wishes end anticipating his rising
fortunes"
The St. Louis Ncw Era says that wagon
drawn by six mules, and accompanied by num-
her of hardy, rough looking men, passed through
Warrontown, Mo. on the 2Stl, on their way 10
California They appeared 10 be fully equipped for
long aud rough voyage across the continent.
The Burlington Htukcye, ot the l7th ulmo, says
that quite number CT their fellow cltlzsns from

constituted in all about Two hundred persons =
Mrs M'Carver Of Fort Madlson-wlte Of NJ. NJ
M'Carver whose letters from Oregon have made
our readers somewhat familiar wlth-Was TO aC-
company this band 10 JON her husband on The
other side OF the Mountains. The Hdwkcye adds :
Another company will start for the same desna
tion from Esquire Hackemsn's settlement in this
County during the next week. This band Will
number about forty wagons. The bare tact OF en-
terlng on such an expedition shows the enter
mising character of these emgranrs. We are
sorry TO part with such men, but enterprise above
every thing else will have vent; instead therefore,
of throwing any obstable in their way-any damper
on their ardo IN this underakIns-we wish them
a safe tourney and fully realization OF their most
sangune anticipations when they arrive al their
new home IN the Far West.
News from Independence, Mo, informs that
the emigrants, now near that point, number about
7OGO, all destined for Oregon and California. They
will start about the same lime, divided into con-
venient companies for travelling with ease and
safely. The Indians will not attack party OF five
hundred OF course the emgrants this season stand
IN no fear OF the red skins. Its astonishing whala
tide is setting toward the fertile lands on the Pacific
