By the earnes. request Of the California Emil

induced 10 publish the following for their beneht:
By the poli,oness of Captain Dorsey, of the Mis-
sissippi Company Of California emigrants, we
have been favored with the following Information
in relation to the emigrating parties from Forts
Smith and Gibson. which we publish for the nfor-
nation Of their friends in the United States. The
Cherokee and Mississippi Companies, Capt. Will
son, 3S men strong, arrived in this place on The
Sd inst, having left Fort Smith the 29th March,
and report company OF l52 men about four or
| five days in their rear.
Capt. Wilson's company came by way OF the
| North Fork Of the Canadian, Little River, and
| Choteau's old trading house; crossed the Cana
dian about 100 miles above Choteau's, travelled
southwestery for four or five days, thence due
north for about 80 miles, thence west for several
day. and thence northwest to this place. There
is scarcity of water and grass for 200 miles
from this place, and they think it decidedly advi-
sable for all emigrants coming the southern route,
to come north of This route, as water and grass
will be exceedingly scarce in a very short time
By information received from the most reliable
Sources there can be no doubt but thn: the route
taken by Capt. Buford lst Dragons, north of the
Canadian river, in the summer of 1913, is by far
the most direct and most practicable route from
Fort Gibson TO this Point.
An escort of U. S. troops left Ft. Smith few
days after the emigration of this party; this escort
is composed of l Co., 5th Infantry, and detach-
ment of 80 men from Co. F. lst Dragons, sup
posed to be under the command of Captain Marcy,
5,h Infantry. An officer of the Typographical
Engineers, accompanies this escort, for tho pur-
pose Of opening a military road from Forts Smith
