ting, on information just received, that it Is
the intention of ADAMS & Co., through their
agent at Portland, (Dr. J. Steihbcrger,) to
establish an Express Office at Olympia, and
a route to communicate directly with the
Columbia river. This is an undertaking al
which all the business men of northern Orc
gon will rejoice, whose opinion it is that
such an undertaking would, in short time,
PAY very handsomely; particularly after
the introduction of steam navigation on the
Sound, anticipated the coming spring.
Adams & Co. have now regular lines es-
tablished through the most remote portions
Of southern Oregon, and our citizens are
prepared to give that company hearty will
