From Sacramento to Auburn the roads are as
good as any in the State; from Auburn to the
Forks House (on the divide between the North
and Middle Forks of the American rivcr) there
are two roads: one crossing the North Fork three
miles from Auburn, and passing through Yankee
Jim's, and near Michigan city-thc other by way
of Hlinostown crossing North Fork eighteen
miles above Auburn and passing through iowa
Hill. Over both of these roads stages and heav-
lily loaded teams pass daily; (stages leaving Iowa
Hill and Yankee Jim's at daylight, reach Sacra-
mento at noon.) The companies owning the
bridges and turnpikes at these two crossings have
expended many thousands of dollars in making
them the best Of mountain roads; they are eX-
cclled by none in California. From the Forks
House to Secret Spring House the road is gcner-
ally good-it only being necessary to remove
some loose stone to make it easy travelling for
wagons. After leaving Secret Springs the road
asccnds steep hill, which can be improved at a
small cost This hill is the first obstacle to the
pussng of heavy loaded teams in the whole dis
tance as mes) from Sacramento. From top OF
Secret Hill to Robinson's Flat, the road continues
good: and from thence to the West Summit OF the
Sierra Nevadas seventeen miles, follows the di-
yiding ridge up an easy ascent, crossing no can

The Placer County Wagon Road over the
Sierra Nevadas, and its Connection
with the National Road.


We spoke last week of the unusual interest that
is being manifested just at this time in regard to
the construction ofroads over the mountains, and
of the calls made for Conventions at several
points to adopt measures to secure the construc-
tion of the same, and also suggested, for the con
sideration of the Convention to be held in this
county at Yankee Jims. on the 9th inst, the pro-
priety of taking such action as would secure
meeting of the citizens of Placer FL Dorado and
Sacramento, as the papers of the two last men
toned counties had avowed themselves in favor
of that route which should prove the most
Observation-Disclosures located in Placer or Ell Do
RADIO. During this week, however, the Senators
and Representatives of the counties of FL Dorado,
Sacramento and Yoo have called a convention
to meet in the city of Sacramento on the llth
inst, "for the purpose of taking into consdera-
tion measures to insure the speedy completion of
Wagon Road from Sacramento to Carson Val
ley;' and in connection with this, bill has passed
the Legislature ''providing for submitting to the
voters of Sacramento and FL Dorado counties an
appropriation of $4,000 by each county, for the
construction of wagon road to connect with
National Road From this we are led to infer
that the citizens of those counties have deter
mined to take action among themselves, and the
route to Carson Valley through Ell Dorado is the
one determined upon. If they proper to pur-
sue this course, we havo no objection to make;
we shall, however, in this article present an ar
ray of facts and figures in regard to the route
through Placer that the Sacramento Convention,
and the citizens of Placer, Nevada Ell Dorado,
Sacramento, Sutter. Yuba, Yolo, and Solano, may
well take into consideration.
From information derived from gentlemen who
have Travelled the routes which we will consider,
we are enabled to speak with accuracy.

"The people, (the Kanzas citizens,) appealed
to us Tor aid. They wanted men, money, and the
munitions of defensive war. They were sent to
them by way OF Iowa-the only route open to the
North. The Missourians, under Richardson,
blockaded this road. The Northern souatters
