gentleman just down from the Marposa, states
that on entering the San Joaquin Valley, from Los
Angeles in September last he passed along the
eastern banks OF Tulare Lake, by route not trav
eled previous to that time. He found large and
flowing streams emptyiDg into the Lake from the
east, and numerous well disposed Indians with
their focks of cattle and horses. The most singu-
lar objects that met bis eye, were several varieties
Of gram which be believes to have never been met
with before. One of these resembled barley, and
grew in vast quantities, often covering areas OF
thousands OF acres. Another variety was smaller,
like milet but not less beautiful But the most
singular variety OF them oil, and equally abundant,
was what our informant termed popcorn. He
stated that the natives cut and threshed out large
quantities of this, which he supposed they lay up
in store. This grain they "parch' like popcorn.
The whole region, from near Kings River to the
extreme head Of the valley Of San Joaquin. within
less than 60 miles of Los Angeles, is no doubt one
of much fertility and by way Of this Lake is the
entire sotah of this State to find It's shortest and
most favorable access to the great commercial cap
