Der of RATS that have passed that place
during the passed year. He says there
were 1867 RATS, which, allowing 800 feet
for the total length of each raft, would
reach "a miles. Allowing them to be

to steadily increase to the close. And
when our readers shall have followed the
party, step by step, along the drcary road
from Fort Smith to Santa Fc; thence down
through the scorched and blasted region Of
the Gila river, with its fierce rapids, impas-
sible narrows, and terrific mountain passes;
across the trackless desert of the Colorado;
and along the Dead Sea desolation of the
western shore of the Tule Lakes; and have
thus gathered detailed account of their
appalling privations and sufferings; We think
they will agree with us in the opinion that
it is matter of exceeding wonder that they
did not perish by the way, and that when
they at length reached the mines, they did
no: sink into their graves, instead of endea-
yoring, feeble and exhausted as they were,
to realize the object of their journey across
the continent.

Chamberlin's Journal,

According to promise, we this week
commence the publication of Mr.. Cham
berlin's California Journal These Notes
were taken with pencil at the end of ev-
cry day, and the Journal afterwards writ
ten out and sent home for the qualification
of friends. 1t may be erroneous in some
slight particulars, but we give it as we find
it written, only emitting some matters of
no general interest. When the youth of
the writer and his tolls on the way are
taken into account, the journal will be
pronounced a highly creditable production,
and we are confident will be found to pos
sess as deep interest as any similar record
of the experience and adventures of over
land pilgrims to the modern Ell Dorado.
Mr.. G. gives plain and unvarnished and
evidently faithful narrative of the progress
of the Lewisburg Californians on their
weary and perilous route of travel; togc-
ther with descriptions of scenery, soil, eli
mate, productions, Indians, Mexicans, &c.
&c, with many little incidents not gcner-
ally noticed by old campaigners and scien-
tiic explorers, that impart fresher, deeper
interest to the Journal, especially to those
who are personally acquainted with either
Of the little band of adventures.
Some portion Of their route lay through
regions never before trod by civilized white
men, thus enabling them to make valuable
additions to the geography of the country.

week, going mostly over the beaten track,
