RAII. RoAD.--What has become Of the Sac
ramento Valley Railroad? Several weeks ago
it was announced that the survey was then
wholly completed for the first 20 miles, and
ready for contract and to all appearance to the
the work might have been nearly
by winter. But the whole affair
seems to have been forgotten, Like the build
ing Of certain Court House short time
since, it was talked Of as though it were in
good faith-and nothing was wanting but to
90 to work. But after oil this stir and excite
ment, can it be possible that the commence.
ment of this work rests upon the favorable
issue of some other circumstance? Or, are
the heads of the company waiting for some
charitable "individual" to bequeath them the
necessary amount to complete the work, before
a lick can be struck! Or, was the clipper
"now about to arrive " some three months ago
with the iron, &C., sunk in the Bay, Just IN
time to keep it from landing?

BgFrom the Los Angeles Star of the 18th,
we learn that DR.. A w. Hope, who arrived
on Wednesday from the TETON, informs us that
he has explored a new route into the TETON
valley, and than good wagon road con be
made at far less expense that at first represen-
ted.
A gentleman who came down from the le]on
a few days since, states that there is no mistake
as to the discovery of gold on Kern River. He
says there are several hundred men on the
ground, and many more arriving. Some OF
the Indians have left the Reservation for that
region. Kern River is about forty mil es from
the TETON, and the gold region is reported to
extend more than q hundred miles towards
OWNS Lake. The Indians are represented as
hostile to the miners, and much precaution is
necessary to guard against them.

Forest City.


Rv a gentleman lust down from Forest City, |
we learn that mining is rather dull at the pres
ent time. Not that claims have failed, or dig
ginrs exhausted but owing to the same cause
SO often to be complained of by miners-wANT
or WATER. The Dutch Company are now do
ing more than others, the Buckeye Co. using
the same water after them, but owing to its i'm
purity, they make it an object to lay by most
of their dirt until they can be better accommo-
dated. About ten days ago, the Dutch Co.,
took out for one days work 32s ounces. Other
companies have equal success, according to the
amount of dirt they washed.
All the surface diggings have literally "dried
up," and will remain so until wet weather gives
them another supply of water
THR DrcG1sGs HAVE ALL FAILED.-A report
reached us few days since that the Diggings
at Iowa Hill was perfect farce; only one or
two companies having ever paid their expenses.
Of course, knowing something of the mines, we
place no confidence in the report. Other
renorts from there speak fnew discoveries still

On Little Deer Greek those companies at

they can arrange their dream, sluices, &c.

The United States Co., on Bourbon hill have
recently procured u large and excellent engine
and pump, by the aid Of which they design to
work their ground. 1t is 2sO feet deep. Their
pump is spoken Of as one of the best and most
expensive ever brought into the mountains

lowing extracts :
Murder on Indian Creek.--A man named
Nathan Parker was shot on Indian Creek on
Tuesday, by one Chum alias Texas while at
tempting to cut away water ditch, about
which there had been dispute. Parker had
declared his intention of cutting away the ditch
at all hazards. Texas stationed himself at the
point in dispute ar when Parker advanced he
declared he would shoot him if he Parker
made one step farther. Parker continued to
advance and received q bullet through the
heart. The above are the facts of the case as
near as we can learn from the contradictory
reports in circulation. When the Sheriff ar
rived at the scene of the murder, Texas had
fed, no one knew where or il what direction.
At the time Parker was shot he was accom-
panied by another man, who says that no alter
cation took place, but a party at work close oy
state that they heard loud words and quarrellng
previous to the report of the pistol. The MUIR
derer has not yet been taken.

GARBL1NG THE RECoRD.-In the Nevada
Democrat of the 26th inst, the following gross
ly erroneous statement occurs in the report of
the proceedings Of the Democratic Convention
at Sacramento:
"The two Presidents then joined in drink
of brandy and water" This statement is un-
true and ought not to go uncorrected, as it may
lead to false issues in the party. The truth is
it was raw liquor {! President MCGOWAN drew
from his pocket "pint pistol took suck
from its neck and handed it to McDougal who
followed suit" or from the length of draught

or ten accessions, and two or three conversions.
