vlded with tour tents, ten wagons, twenty-seven
yoke OF oxen, four mules, and two horses
Inc roads, IN every direction, are lined with the
wagons OF ENGRAVING parties from the lower coun-
ties OF Missouri. and from Iowa, Wisconsin, Mich-
gam. and Illinois. The majority of these intend
moving lelsurely as far as Fort Kearny and Council
Bluffs, and there make their final start.
Upto this time at least three thousand emigrants
nave arrived at this point, en- route for California
Several companies have already departed, and are
now about one hundred miles from the frontier
they intend remaining in camp for some days at
Grand Island, which is about two hundred and
eighty miles distant. From that point you may ex-
pect my next communication. The roads from In
dependence, st. Joseph, Fort Kearny, and Council
Bl9fts there connect; and in order to obtain full
and accurate register of those emigrating, (Which
1t is wholly impractcable, if not impossible, to OBJ
tain at any other point,) well as report the pro-
gress OF the various companies, have deemed that
point advantageous. The trying times to many will
ARISE before they succeed In reaching Grand Island,
OF which, as wei! as other matters of interest,"
shall endeavor to inform you. Postal communlca-
ton ceases after leaving their several places of rem
devious, and the emIgrant has no ready means to
ports from that location will, therefore, I trust,
prove OF interest, as well to them as the public.
