La>i Of The yOrlhrrn RAILWAY Exploration.

We learn by an'EXpress recently arrived
from the camp Of Lieut. Mullen, in The ST.
Mary's river, news gratifying in Ihecxlreme.
Daring the month Of March Lieut.. Mu-
Ian crossed the Rocky mountains to Fort
Benton, and on his return brought wagon
10 which was attached four mules the dis
iance-29G miles by odompter measurement
having been accomplished in l2 days
travelling time. On leaving Fort Benton,
Lieut.. Mulan took tic high plateau between
the Missouri and Teton rivers, so as 10 avoid
the deep 'c0ulies' which run into the valleys
of these streams, and entered the mountains
but few miles south of the entrance 10 th
route Of Gov. Stevens main train He des
cribes the entire route as en- easy road ovet
rolling country the divide, half mile
from base TO base, as slow prairie ridge, y
and SO gradually sloping upon either side,
that in their descent not only were the
wheels not locked, but the train moved down
upon a trol. No snow whatever occurred
on the return route. In going (by differ
,nt pass ten inches was found upon the
divide, but mona on the eastern slope o.
around Fort Benton. The only delay To
the train was occasoned by some fallen tim
Der, which was removed BY party Of foul
men in eight hours. Water, grass and wood
we're in abundance throughout
To the people of Washington Territory
this discovery Of wagon road across the
Rocky mountains as favorable as that through
the South Pass, will BE- hailed with the
greatest pleasure. 1t is evident that before
long the SIBERIAN TRAIL will be great
lhoroughiare for immigl alton 10 our shores.
At this moment no difficulty of moment
presents itself flom the Mississippi river 10
the St. Mary's valley, Considerable labor
must be bestowed upon the portion between
this point and the plains of the SpDkan-a
distance of two hundred miles, but when the
road shall have been opened We shall have
a route favorable as regards wood, water and
grass. The fertile valley of the St MaryS,
containing 1890 square miles OF arabic land,
is a most excellent recruiting station for ami
mails, and is also well supplied with timber.
The numerous tributaries of the river of1l
excellent mill sites, and We see no reason
why another settlement should not spring
up in this, the eastern potion Of our Terri
tory, 10 vie with the Mormon settlement Of
the Great Salt Lake.

IL We have concluded at once TO give
up all our columns to the publication Of ;he
laws which are anxously expected BY the
people generally. A few items will sui-
ice.
Coy. STEVENS has rather opened the eyes
Of the p,ople Of San Francisco, relative 10
the northern railway exploration. The den
izens of that city are becoming "Skeerrd."
HAn Indian was killed about four miles
from this place, by man named JAMES
BURT, who was tried but acquitted. We
have nothing to say in justification Of the
acquilial. Mr.. Burt has since fed the Ter
rllOry.
T Mr.. c. BENHAM, who has large inter
rst in very valuable coal claim at Bclling-
ham Bay, has arrived here, aud will proceed
to the Bay designated in few days, 10 au-
thorize more vigorous prosecution Of labor
in the getting out of coal He is young
man physically, although montally old and
we'll informed. II
LIEUT.. ARNoLD, connected with the re
cent survey of Gov. Stevens, started on
Thursday last in company with Mr.. E. j.
Allen and others, 10 survey the best military
route between the Yakima valley - the
,aslern slope, to the wcst--expccts to re-
turn in a month or six weeks at farthest.
Lieut. Arnold, distinguished as an excellent
officer, belongs 10 the regular dragons, and
Mr. Allen, who accompanies him, is well
known here as the most active operator 10
get through the Cascade Immigrant trail over
the mountains. We hops that Lieut.. Ar
mold will find /. the Narchez pass favorable
for a military road, as it may be hereafter
required as available for the Pacific railway.
