Territorial Road Survey,

The commissioners appointed by the re-
cent Legislature, Messrs. F. KENNEDY, IRA
WARD and ISAAC HAYS, to survey terri
torial road from Olympia to Monticello,
agreeable to bill passed for the location
of a road between those places, have dis
charged the duty assigned them, and will,
we think, be able to make favorable re-
port thereon.
From Mr.. r. INGALLS,, who was engaged
in the survey, we learn that the bearings of
the route from Olympia to the forks of the
Cowlitz river, was about 2O0 west Of south,
and from the forks to Monticello, about
50 or 6 east of south. The route is rep
resented as entirely practicable-for most
of the way passing over high ground, with
out any serious hills to be surmoupted
although to make good wagon road, much
labor will be required, as it will have to be
constructed for more than : of the distance,
through timbered country, though gen.
orally, not very heavy. The worst portion
of the route was found about four miles
from the Cowlitz river, on the ridge divi-
viding and between the foot of grand prai-
rie and Mr.. Drew's land claim, which will
require both grading and cross-laying for a
short distance.
The route crosses the Chehalis river twice,
in consequence of an elbow formed by that
stream-at the fartherst crossing of (which,
bridge can be constructed without any
difficulty, and at light expense but at the
first crossing, an abutment will be necessa-
ry on the east side of the river, in conse-
sequence of that bank being liable to over
flow for a short distance, at higl 'oter.

ENrnrsiOn 10 The Coast Range.

A.party Of three, consisting of McSSrS.
Waymire, Kellogg, and another gentleman
whose name we have been unable to learn,
arrived at this place last week from an cX-
cursion to the coast range, whittier they
had gone for the purpose of prospecting for
gold. The party have spent some six weeks
in the mountains, along the streams, and
made two or three unsuccessful attempts to
cross to the western slope of the mountains.
They explored the country around Black
Lak6AarOund the head of Hoods Canal,
and along the base Of the mountains as far
down as Port Ludlow. They describe the
country in the vicinity of the coast range
as very rough, and access to the mountains
extremely difficult for pack animals. They
ascended the mountains to sufficient
height to obtain view of both the Pacific
and the Sound, but were compelled to aban-
don their purpose Of making descent on
the western side, in consequence of the i'm
mense canyons that surrounded the isolated
spurs over which their course had been di-
rected. The mountains are broken up in
the utmost disorder-as is inferred, from
volcanic eruptions-and a dividing ridge
extremely difficult to locate. The smoke
that hovered around one Of the peaks,
which was observed for several days, clear
ly designated it as mountain TORCH"
whose fires are yet burning, and whose
eruptions may have contributed to the con-
fusion around it. But few Indians were
met with, and they exceedingly wild and
wretched in appearance. Game was found
in abundance, consisting of several species
of elk, black and brown bear, black tail
deer, &c.
The party, one Of whom is an eNperien-
ced miner, appear well satisfied with the
result of their esearches-fnding abund-
ant specimens of gold bearing quartz, and
their prospectings affording ample induce
ments for a further expenditure of time
and labor.
1t was the intention Of the party to have
crossed the coast range at once, and con-
fine their researches exclusively to the west
ern slope of those mountains-believing
that here, as in California, if gold was OBJ
tanned in any considerable quantities, it
would be found on the Pacific side; and al
though they failed in the object contempla-
ted for reasons above assigned, yet from
the elevation attained by them, they have
no doubt but they observed at least one
pass that could be traversed from the east
ern to the western base without much diff
Guilty.
1t is the intention of the party to make
arrangements for more thorough and pro-
tracted exploration, and satisfactory test Of
the gold resources of the Pacific side of
the coast range, and for that purpose they
intend to start in August or September,
fully provided with mining implements and
provisions, with an object of devoting the
winter to purposes of prospecting.

The Paris correspondent of the London
Times intimates that Spain has declared
her willingness to join the Western Powers
in the present war, on condition that France
and England should guarantee to her the
possession Of Cuba.
We are much amused by seeing the
above paragraph in several papers which,
for years past, have been continually de-
claring that France and England have
guaranteed to Spain the possession of Gu
ba. Some people are very forgetiul, and
thereby make sad bunderS.

my is calculated at Ill., men.

stockholders. This does not include the local business of the road, which will constitute considerable item, and will rapidly increase. The ffy-five miles west of White river, will pay bet ter than the forty-four east of that river. Supplies for Pulaski, Saline, Conway and Perry counties, which are now haul. ed in wagons from White river at an enormous expense; will extend the bus mess on that part cf the road east of White river.
 The amount of stock necessary to be taken by Pulaski and Prairie, can be raised if we are abe to do anything toward the building of roads. Individ- ual subscription is more valuable than corporate subscriptions. The amount necessary to be raised is S550,00O of this S25O,000 can be raised by sum to individual subscriptions The of remaining SlO0,O00 is small be raised by taxation on $3,C00,00C taxable property--the amount in those counties.
 Without further remark, at present, we commend the subject to the calm consideration of Pulaski and Prairie In those counties, we have popu alton of little less than 10000 souls. With no other outlet for their produce, or means of transporting their necessaries, than the Arkansas river, at all times a precarious dependence, and for the last seven months entirely closed. During the last year, we have paid not less than $lOO,OO0, or Sl0 for each person, over and a above the cost of raj! road trans portaton; we have been deprived of many of the comforts of life, and the last years produce remains on our hands. What will be the loss by the decline in the market when the river Is open, Is impossible to tell. Phillips and Mon roe, by exertion and strict economy, can and are determined to come to White river. It remains for us to say whether we will meet them. We trust every man among us will put his shoulder to the wheel; if so, as poor as we are, we can do it. It will supply our present wants and increase our ability to en- gage in more extensive works.

The ice began to form so r,pidly that they found they could not Fro:eed.

SOWING OsAGE ORANGE Several Of our new subscribers have inquired what preparation is necessary to secure the vegetation of Osage Orange Seed! Our method is, to soak the sesd for five days or week, in soft water, standing in a warm room, and changing the water every other day. Then SOW in good mellow soil, sandy if possible, or such as will not bake after the rain, dropping the seed in drills or rows, say two feet apart, and one to two inches apart Tn the rows, and cover about one inch Tn depth. If dry weather occurs, the rows must be watered occasionally till the plants ap- pear and special care must be taken to keep the young plants clear of weeds.
 A quart of Osage Orange Seed, Ii Il does will, produce from 5000 to 4,O0J plants, or enough for l0o rods ot hedge, The price of seed is $l per quart, S0 per peck, S2O per bushel, with some reduction to dealers and others who buy more than bushel. The best method Of conveyance for those who live at distance. is by express, which IS safe and expeditions, upon all the lines ol railroad. By mail the postage alone Is $l a quart.-Ohio Cadtivator.

 s9y% The New York Journal of Commerce thus describes one of the chickens which helps to form the na- tional poultry show at the Museum in that city:
 "The monarch of the exhibition is an immense Shanghai rooster, and he is assigned cage by himself, proba- bly, by virtue of his immense propor- tions. When his neck is fully extended he measures upwards of five feet in height, almost rivals the stuffed ostrich which looks askance at him from the opposite side. To ospeak hyperbolical- ly, the fellow has comb like the prize beefsteaks one sees in the restaurant windows; his spurs, like the horns of a two-year old steer, his crow, like the steam whistle of a fifteen horse engine; and to see the little feather-legged roosters around him look aghast and drop their wings, is highly suggestive of the appearance of bevy of Short Boys at the appearance of the chief of police..''

Mrs. Wilson's Captivity and Rescue.

Several days ago, in giving news from New Mexico, we had brief account of the escape of Mrs. Wilson, who was taken captive by Indians as she was on her return from the neighborh pod of Fl Paso to the Texas settlements. The Austin State Gazette of the 20th ult, has further particulars of Mrs. Wilson's cap tivity and escape which we copy. The Gazette says:
 Gov Pease received by the last mail from Santa Fe, communication from Gov. Merrlweather, giving information of the captivity and escape of a lady, who formerly resided in Hunt county in this State. The lady is Mrs. Jane Will son, daughter of Mir. Smith, formerly of Alton, Ill. She was married to Mir. Wilson near Greenville, in Hunt coun- ty. She says that last summer her hus- band and father, joined company go- ing to California by way of Fl Paso.- When they reach the ncighborhood of Fl Paso, her husband and father with a few others, concluded to return.
 A short time after starting back, they were attacked by party of Indians, supposed to be Comanches, and MT. Wilson and her father killed. In a few days they were again attacked, the wa gon driver killed, and herself and two boys taken prisoners. They were taken to camp where there were large body of Commanches, where she was strip ped of her clothing and subjected to the most horrible and inhuman treatment.- She remained prisoner some twenty five days, undergoing the most brutal usage, when she made her escape. Nak- ed and without food she wandered about for some time, subsisting upon wild ber- ries, where she was found by party of Mexican traders, who furnished her with mems apparel and food, and left her in a hollow tree, while they went to seek the Indian camp to trade. They were absent eight days.
 They found the Indians encamped near ihe Sand Hills on Red River-saw one of the boys, but could not induce the Indians to give him up upon any terms. They returned to Mrs. Wilson and conveyed her into the settlements. Gov. Merrlwether upon being informed of the facts, sent his son for her, by whom she was taken to Santa Fe. where she now is. She IS in delicate situation, expecting to be confined in short time. She will be sent home as soon as her health will permit. Gov Merriwether speaks of her as a lady of fine personal appearance, of modest de pertinent, and only seventeen years of age. Gov. Pease transmitted the com munication to the legislature yesterday. | Trne DeIfn
