Letter from Frazer'sRiver.

We have been permitted to make the iol-
lowing extract from letter just received by
Mr.. Cover, proprietor of BELLS Exchange
Drytown from his brother who had gone to
ascertain the correctness of the reports in
relation 20 the new gold diggings. The state
ments may be relied on most implicitly, as
Mr.. Cover is man of good judgment, and
went prepared to find out the facts
WHArcoM, May 18th 1858.
Brother James:-I have conversed with
gentleman living in this place, who has just
returned from the Frazer river mines. lie
says there are rich mines about one hundred
and sixty miles from here, there are also
pretty good diggings within forty miles of
Whatcom. But there is no practicable way
of getting provisions into the dggings.-
Provisions in the mines are worth dollar a
pound on an average. A report is in circu.
ation that it is the design of the Hudson
Bay Co. to place their steamer on the river
to form blockade against American vessels
furnishing supplies for the mines; thus secu.
ring to Victoria and forts Hope and Langley
the exclusive monopoly of trade. The citi-
zens Of this quarter are endeavoring to open
communication with the mining region
through Uncle Sans territory, instead Of be-
ing dependent on the caprice Of the Hudson
Bay Co The present Inconvenience to which
the land route will be subject 20 is the dense
forests with the thick underground and fall
len timber, and lake Of five miles in length
which cannot be gone round on account Of
the high and steep cliffs Of rock. This trail
will be impossible for pack trains for at least
three months yet. On this trail are several
pretty valleys which remain unoccupicd for
want of ingress and egress. There are gold
diggings within forty miles Of this place, bet
ter than any know of in California
Say to my frenns that | do not advise any
Of them to come up here yet, next spring
will be time enough
Your Brother, &c
