Judge Crane had returned from an exploring
expedition. which included a scope of country
$50 miles in extent, of the mountains. He re-
ports that Truckee River as laid down in God
dard's Map, does not empty its water into Pyra-
mid Lake, but sinks before it reaches there. In
high water it flows into Mud Lake He met
Kinks train on the shore of Honey Lake-all
well. The engineers express the belief that
Honey Lake and Valley are in California. They
would commence the road on the eastern shore
of the lake, and not from the upper end as first
intended
Some friendly Indians have brought a report
to Carson Valley that the advance immigration
had been attacked by the Snake Indians near the
Sink of the Humboldt. Fifteen wagons had been
taken and plundercd, and several white persons
killed.
This is the report brought by the friendly In
dians Fears are entertained that it is true,
though there is room for doubt AS the advance
emigration should have reached the Valley before
this time, something must be wrong
great gold excitement exists in the Valley.
Diggings have been struck on Walkers River,
which are paying $40 to sl4 per day to the man.
Tracys Express brought over $4,000 in dust.
Several of our prospcctors will go over by stage
on Monday.
Mr.. Keyser reports meeting six heavily loaded
teams going over with goods consigned to Job
Ormsby and others. They were getting along
without the least difficulty. The grading of John
sons Summit is fairly commenced. 1t is report
cd in the Valley that the Thompson Express had
failed for want of funds to pay Thompson 500
per month wages. He says that the johnson is
the best road.
Tracy will dispatch special express from here
tomorrow with States mails.
W. W. Smith, formerly Secretary of the Alta
Telegraph Company, is in the Valley making
arrangements to construct n line of Telegraph
