Improving the Memory.

PROFESSOR ARMEs lectured on Monday evening
at High School Hall, to a large audience, on q
new system for improving the Memory. He also
gave an illustration of the effects of his teaching
by putting a considerable number of questions,
having reference to dates, to a young man OF
this place, who answered each and all Of them
in a manner which was perfectly astonishing
PRoF. ARMs exhibited to US a large number Of
certificates from many well known gentlemen OF
the highest standing in the different cities of the
Union, all speaking in the most favorable terms
of his system and himself.
He will probably commence giving lessons to
q class this evening.

Wagon Road to- California.

Ii was clearly the intention OF Congress
when passing the bill making appropriations
for Wagon Roads TO California, 10 make the
route by Salt Lake and the South Pass the
main immigrant and National Post road
In support Of this, there are several facts
which might Ire mentioned, and among
hem, the fact thut the bill requires the
National road to terminate at or near Honey
Lake, VIII CHI is on the lire Of the main i'm
migrant road, already practicable for wag
ons, and tie additional fact thGt IL received
the largest appropriation. The Washington
Star evidently takes this view of the sub
ect, and describes the bill rs follows:
/. The proposed road from Fort Kearney,
by the South pass to California starts n u
point where the emiErantS FROM all the
Western and North western States inc uding
Missouri, unite aud take II common road
thence to California. The appropria ZION for
this j. $500 900.
3 For the road from near FL 'nsso, on
the western frontier Of fexns, to the Colora-
TO, opphsite Fort Yuma. on the Southwes-
tern boundary of California;. The appro-
pration is $500 900.
3 For the rogd from Fort Defiance in the
Apache country, 10 the mouth OF the Mo-
have river near tie California line, the APP
preparation is $50, 900 THIS roaV affords
nm outlet for the people Of New MEXICO TO
drive their stock to Caiifornla--there being

tance.
