FRoaf OREGON. The Greg oman o
Sept. 18th says:
Every day brings fresh arrivals of
emigrants, and with them comes the
the most heart-rending accounts of
the suf1erings of those whose mis-
fortune it is to be in the rear Of the
bulk of the immense cavalcade said
to be vending their steps to our hos
.pitable shores.
Those already in report that there
is great scarcity Of grass this side
of and as far back as Fort Hall, ow-
ing in the first instance to its not
being over beautifully supplied by
nature, and in the second the number
of cattle, horses and other stock in
advance is so large, that it deyours
and treads down the most Of it, leav-
ing those behind destitute land
thirdly, the immigrants charge the
spectators with having set fire to
and destroyed the grass on The Burnt
River and the Blue Mountains SO
that they would be forced to sell
their stock.
The stock on Snake River is rep
as dying off by hundreds
and almost thousands; provisions are
giving out; sickness prevails to an
alarming extent, and it is much to
be feared that the dr eadful scourge,
the cholera, will add its, hundreds to
the gloomy graves Of 40 and 80,
and their remains left to moulder
away in a sterile waste, thousands Of
miles away from homes and friends.
