Independence Route to California,

With the view of furnishing those who intend
going 10 California with all the information within
our reach, we copy the following estimate of ths
necessary expenses on the Independence route:
From Independence, or Westport, in Missouri, to
the Sacramento in California, by way of the South
Pass of the Rocky Mountains, is journey Of about
ninety days To leave the Missouri at Council
Bulls, and go up the north side of the Platte, the
distance is about the same and either route, for
PERSONS going out in the spring, eeems to prefer
able to that by way of Panama. The expense of
getting to California will be less than by the southern
route; the emigrants will be Injured TO the hard
ships which they must undergo in the country, and
will have, besides, the advantage of So cies of
properly, such as wagons, harness, ETC., very USE

To go in companies of ten persons, sssocating
with other companies, so as TO make caravan

provisions to each person. To this, add expense
of tents, and contingencies, and the total will be
about $l10 CO to each member of the party. Fire.
arms, ammunition and clothing, will cost as much
to go by Panama across the plains.
The aggregate weight of provisions, tents, mess
apparatus, and ammunition, will not exceed two
thousand four hundred pounds Estimating the
load Of the wagon at four thousand pounds this
would leave sixteen hundred pounds, or one hum
dred and sixty pounds for each man as private bag
gage But as the load will daily be getting lighter,
and the roads are gocd the team could start with
least forty-five hundred, or five thousand pounds,
which would give sufficient baggage to each person.
If the party be poor, they need go to no further
expense, because man can easily walk far
the team will traveLin day. But SD will mount
: each man on good mule, with trlppings complete,
making the entire cost Of the outfit for ranspora
tation, for each, 800. Or the party can purchase
four mules and light wagon for about $3.50, to
ride in, making the cost of the whole only $l55 to
each person.
