outlay of time and money. This company is
well prepared to work-having good track,

beyond the tunnel claim, r. Mccall L Co.

keep the other dry and give them fair op-

near the lode, and if they persevere, are bound

WASHINGTON, August 10th.
The President, short time ago, received a
letter from Prof Silliman, and others, several
Doctors of Divinity, objecting to the employ
ment BY him of the United States military
forces to execute the so-called laws of Kansas,
and assuring him that they would not cease
praying that he might have the proper course
of duty pointed out to him, or something to
that effect To this letter the President has
just replied briefly but pointedly, by denying
their surmiscs, questioning their knowledge of
those laws, and after acknowledging their va
lidity, he calmly assures them that by the
help of God, he will enforce them in accord
ance with his oath of Office.

The CAVE Cry WAGON RoAD.-Some time
ago the citizens of Cave City advocated the
policy of tapping the ''Big Tree Road" and
a branch road to pass through
Cave City, and called upon all those inter-
ested in the project to subscribe and lend their
assistance to the undertaking. Those who
have taken the matter in hand, are deserving
of the greatest praise for the enterprise and
energy displayed, as they labored inccssantly
till the work was under way, and are now
pushing it on with unrcmtting industry. TO
show how the work is progressing we subjon
the following, which has been handed us:
The Commissioners of the Cave CITY and
Big Tree Wagon Road respectfully announce
to the public that the road is progressing most
favorably. Three of the six sections of the
road (being onc-half, and by far the most diff
fcult portlon) are taken by contract. and in
a short time will be completed. The reni,in-
ing three sections arc of small Importance.
and contractors are ready to commence ope-
rations on them; though, owing to the dry
times. the Commissioners have been Obliged.
in some degree, to check the energetic spirit
which has been so commercially reused to a
determination to complete, as early as possi-
ble the praiseworthy object in view. Having
thus far overcome all the imaginary difficulties
of the road by the sole aid of the united ef-
forts of the citizens of Cave CITY, we would
respectfully solicit the subscriptions of all who
feel interested, as carly as convenient: and
would suggest the propriety of all our neigh
bors taking into consideration the pecuniary
and social advantages TO be gained by the i'm
mediate prosecution of our undertaking.

The State Fair.

We have received an account of the first
days proceedings at the State Fair, from
which it appears everything is in a state of
hustle and lively activity. Stockton is repre-
scntcd as crowded with people from all parts
of the State, drawn thithcr by curiosity or
interest to witness the wonderful productions
of California, relating to her Agricultural re-
sources. Horticulture, Mechanic Arts, and all
branches of industry, as everything calculated
to increase the wealth and prosperity of the
State, or add to the elevation OF her citizens
is there on exhibition. There is no doubt but
it is one of the grandest affairs that has ever
taken place in our young and fourishing
State. At II NJ, the doors of the Grand Pa
was shortly filed and continued so for the
remainder of the day, by persons anxious to
examine the interesting curiosities before
them. At o'clock P. NJ, the opening was
delivered by VIM. Garrard, Esq, President of
the Agricultural Society. The address was a
well written and able one, worthy the occasion
The receipts of the Fair on the first day
were, for memberships $l,70o; for season
tickets S3,SG2 80, making total of $5,5G2 so.
