Beginning Of Winter.

For the first time this season we have had
rain that clearly betokens beginning OF winter.
It commenced on Monday morning, about 3
o'clock, and rained for twenty-four hours, with
little intermission. It also rained nearly all day
on Wednesday. The water afforded is enough
to benefit the bitches, and the larger rsvines,
and will thus extend the sphere Of mining labor
to considerable degree. But to meet the
wants of the region fully and permanently will
require fortnight's rain at least.
This admonition of approaching winter
should lead our merchants to overlook their
stocks of goods, and see that they are full
The lower markets are at present greatly over
stocked, and many descriptions Of goods are
ceiling for less in San Francisco than in New
York, while the prices for sll are lower proba-
bly, than they will be again for the winter. -
Now is the time therefore to purchase, even did
not the consideration Of the heavy freights soon
to be paid for hauling over bad roads, furnish
additional reason. The rains so far have done
little more than alay the dust, but those that
may reasonably be expected within q month
will quadrupls the rates Of freight. No fur
ther reduction in the San Francisco market
can balance such an expense.
Sence the winter Of 1850'5l, merchants
have been cautious Of investing largely in the
fall, fearful of depression in. the market
below, and light winter, not much raising
the rates of freight. But it will be remembered
that goods of all descriptions, especially pro-
Visions were very high the preceding fall
Goods poured in below, and dry winter and
competition among teamsters, lowered freights
rather than raised them. But the markets
below are now probably at their lowest point,
so that if q merchant lays in heavy stock he
has little risk of loss from a falling market
while the risk of heavy winter and high
freights is too great to encounter without IN
avoidable causes.
The great population now in and about
Nevada--the numerous diggings that depend
on our market-the opening of the northern
trade. will all tend to create great demand for

goods the coming winter, and be likely to ex-
haust any supply that can be laid in. As the
roads are but little better than they were last
year, there will be little better communication
with the lower cities, and if proper precautions
are not used it is to be feared we may again
be in the midst of famine.
We desire to call the attention Of our mer-
chants to these things, for upon them depends
the whole matter. We trust they will prevent
another such season as that Of last year if pos
sible

Sacramento Valley Railroad.

The Sacramento papers speak Of railroad
from that city to Nevada, as foregone con-
clusioA. The company has been formed and
officers elected, and it is confidently stated that
the work will progress early next season. We
like this it is the true spirit of progress. A
road between the two points mentioned, would
pay literally, and our Sacramento friends are
not wanting in energy to accomplish, if posi-
BILE, whatever will have tendency to keep them
in the position they have hitherto occupied
Had Marysville evinced but little of the public
spirit of her elder sister, there would be plank
road now in operation between here and Neva-
da, and railroad stock between the latter place
and Nevada, would not command fifty cents on
the dollar but our citizens are over cautious,
and by placing too much reliance on the adyan-
tages we naturally enjoy, will very likely let slip
the permanent advantages which little energy
would secure to US without rival.
The same party who has taken the lead in the
proposed road, was anxious to make this city
and her interests the centre of his operations
He saw as every man must see that We had the
position to command the trade of the Northern
mines but he was met coolly. 1t was useless
for him to tell our merchants or capitalists that
money was awaiting investment, subject to hi:
decision of the best route the old story of 'let
we'll enough alone met him at every corner
and forced him to seek those who could appre
ciate the advantages that an increase of bust
ness would be to them.
We have written more lengthy than we had
intended, but it is a subject upon which we have
spoken 80 often and 50 freely, that we coulG
hardly soy less.
The above is from the Marysville Express
We hail it with pleasure as evidence that thai
paper is at last coming to it's senses upon plank
road and other matters It is frank confess
ion-a backing out Of it's former assumptions
and admission that the fault rested with Ma
rysville when the plank road was not built
We well knew it was aware of these facts al
the time, and when it was e1cusing Marysville
and accusing Nevada its pride WAS speaking
not its judgment. Although it is now too lat
for its recantation to have any effect, we RECORD
it as the only possible atonement Of its pas
errors.
