The Cascade Road.

BY Mr.. E. J. ALLEN who came in a few
days since, we have adyces from our WASH
INGroy TLRmToRY road across the Cascade
Mountains. We can only give brief &C.
count in this number, but by next week we
hope TO be able IL Jay before our readers, a
full description of the entire route from the
pen of gentleman who has worked long
and faithfully on the road, and can speak
from actual observation.
The road is finished from the UMATILLA
TO within fifteen miles Of NIsQuALLY PLAIYs,
and in all probability will be entirely thro'
to oPucEr SOUND within the next two weeks.
The roads good one, crosses but few hills,
and has plenty Of water and grass all along
it. There is good grazing on the eastern
slope of the Cascade range, and on the very
summit there are thousands Of acres Of rich
green grass--the very place where none
would be e1pcctsd-and there is no laurel
or other poisonous shrub, to injure stock
II is about three days travel from the sum-
init of the mountains 10 White River prai-
Ties, magnificent spot, covered With lux
ufiant grass and we'll watored The road
follows an old Indian trail which has been
travelled by them for years. The greates
elevation Of the road is about 5000 feet, anC

Lieut.. Hodges, from Capt. McClellan'
party, passed over the road and highly aP
proved of il.
= Mr.. Moore has gone on to the Umalilla
to await the arrival Of Gov. Stevens, and
pilot him through the new souts.
An Indian reported Mr.. Sargent to be on
the way through with train Of sixty wHg;
ons. We hope this may prove true.
The White River country is represented
TO be the garden Of the territory, and some
Of the men al work on the road, have taken
claims there. II is capable Of settlement to
the base ofthe mountains.
AL praise is due 10 those men who have
so faithfully adhered to, and labored so ear.
ne'ily for, the accomplishment Of this great
public work. They have overcome all OBJ
stacles, and worked the road through. II
is now the duty Of the citizens Of the terri
tory, to reward these men literally. The
road is, as we said before, a great public
works Of great value aud importance 10
the lohOls Territory-and each and every
section of the conuiry will be benefited BY
IL II is only just, therefore, that every one
should contribute towards defrayingiIs cost.
Remember, 'he lsborer is worthy Of his
hire
Mr.. Allen has lost his house and some
$4,000 worth oftimber BY FIRE, while oul
on this road, hard at work.
