CONDITION OF THE ROADS, The recent
rains have rendered almost impossible some
OF the highways leading to and from this
place. The road to Marysvile by way of
Lynchburg, has become so soft that loaded
teams cannot pass without great difficulty,
several having mired completely down with
IN the last two or three days. The worst
part of the road is between Lynchburgh aud
the red hills beyond. We are informed that
the road oVerseer, Mr.. Berry, is at work
near the reservoir upon the bridges and
gullies, but he will in all probability be un-
unable to make it even passble this winter,
or SO long as the rainy season lasts. The
travel, therefore, must necessarily go by the
river road, which is sandy and in good con-
dition.

GONE TO SEE 'EM,-We are told by q
sporting friend Of the turf, that the celebra-
ted race horse of Mr.. Maynard, has been
taken to Auburn by Tom White, where a
banter has been made to run him or any
other nag in the State four hundred yards
for $1,000. The Auburn sports must have o
fleet runner or Tom will throw the sand in
their eyes and corral that little amount of
cash and bring it to this market.

A VIOLENT STORM of wind and rain set
in night before last, and continued through

have become greatly in demand Should
this weather continue day ar two longer,
we shouldn't wonder if "that steamboat I"
were to pay usaa visit, as the river is rising
rapidly.

ARTEsIAN WELL,-The San Joaquin Re

Stockton has now reached the depth of four
hundred and thirty feet. This is thirty feet
below the old we'll, which had to be aban-
doned on account of slug of iron having
been dropped into it, as is supposed, by some
designing person.

Topics of the Day.

length by yesterdays Express. In
speaking Of the railway existing be-
tween Marysville and Sacramento
We meant to convey the idea that the
Marysvillians were in error in their
project for building road that
should have for its object the ad-
vancement of Marysvillc as in oppo-
sition to the interests of Sacramento.
We regard such an attempt as futile,
more particularly as it has for its ul-
innate object the concentration of
the mountain trade at that point,
while those from whom they would
expect assistance, could hardly be so
blinded as not to perceive that they
were attempting project at direct
variance with the interests of large
portion of country from Which that
trade might come, and as in opposi-
tion to a much more feasible road to
the upper country by way of Sacra-
mento, Folsom and the foot hills,
having for its terminus q point on
Feather Riycr,-the most natural
and approachable place for such a
terminus being none other than this
same town Of Oroyillc. As far as
''coQuetting with Sacramento" is
concerned, we must disayow any such
intention, for we believe that were
railroad to be built to the lower coun-
try, having for acay station the in
termediate City of Marysville, OUR
object would be accomplished as fully
as if the road were to avoid that city
altogether and pass by more direct
route towards Sacramento and San
Francisco. In fact, we think that
Alarysville claims too much for her
self, and sets too high a value on her
position. At the same time, however
we acknowledge her prosperity as a
pleasant little city, which we don't
exactly propose to Grub out" but to
very speedily outstrip, claiming for
ourselves most decided superiority
i'll point of locality and natural re-
sources. We have no desire to place
Oroyille in the position of a rival to
Marysville, but we do wish TO set
forth the facts in her favor to the
best advantage, hoping they may
meet with the attention and consid-
Grafton of parties who are competent
to lend material aid to such underta-
kings as may result in her welfare
and advancement. We have no par
ticular regard for the Sacramento
Valley Railroad, only as being al
ready in operation, and one with
which an Oroville road might con-
meet. We notice that the difficulties
Of this company have been amicably |
arranged, and new Board of Di-
rectors elected, under whose man
agement it is expected the company
will emerge from their embarrass-
ments, and proceed to extend the
road.
