EXPLORATION TO CALIFoRNIA.--A letter from
Fort Laramie to the Missouri Republican says
Up TO June I'd, the entire number of mon, wo-
men, children, wagons, horses, mules, &c., that
have passed this point is as follows :-9972 men,
90 women, 76 children, 2797 wagons, $500
horses, 3l26 mules, and 2304 oxen. The emil
grafton is at least three weeks ahead Of tat of
last year. As usual, many have alref Iy seen
the Elephant, and sigh for their vacant seats
around the family hearth, but the fear of ridi-
cule deters thom from taking the back trail. II
is to be feared that q great number will become
familiar with the flavor Of horse flesh and mule
meat before reaching the land Of promise, as
their supplies Of provisions arc any thing but
ample. Another party Of footmen passed yes
tcrday, carrying every thing, provisions, blan-
kots, &C., strapped 20 their backs. One provi-
dent fellow, in addition to all this, had n small
sheet iron cooking stove slung TO his back, with
which he appeared much delighted.
