relied upon for other of the staple commodities,

in ten days, or at the most two weeks, it will
be brought into Columbia Hill. Very soon
therefore, it will be completed to Chimney

Cherry, near Carson City, was arrested at
Downieville, last week, and taken thence, by
Marshal Blackburn, for trial in Carson City.
Rudsil who was arrested and confined in the
Nevada Jail, was taken to Carson City at the

EMGRANT SUFFERINGs-HoRR,BLE PARTIC-
uLARs IA correspondent writing from Walla
Wala, w 7 on the Sd Of November, to the
Portland News, says:
An Express has arrived in this Valley from
the command of Captain Dent, who was or
dered out upon The Emigrant Road, in the
vicinity uf Fort Boise, to investigate the re-
port of the massacre of the emigrants.
Captain Dent found some ten or twelve
emigrants still alive, and subsisting on the
dead bodies of their associates. The details
are most horrible! The messenger reports
that some twelve dead bodies have been
found. and ten were still alive, secreted in
parties ofthree or four for the distance of
twelve miles in the vicinity of the attack.
Some had died from actual starvation.
Mr. Myers, his brothers, wife. Miss Myers
with FIVE children, Miss TrimEall, were among
the living. This party were suhsisting upon
the dead body of Mr.. Myers, the father and
husband of the family.
Captain Dent will return in few days,
when full report viii be forwarded to the
Portland press. :
This most horrible slaughter ofso many in
noccnt emigrants calls fora searching nvesti-
CATION by. the authorities, and if no one
should be censured for non fulfillment of
duty, then the Government had better take
some efficient steps for the protection of this
high way, over which thousands are passing
westward every year.

HIGH WIND YEsTERDAY.-A northeast wind
prevailed with such violence as to knock people
off their feet, tear off window-shutters, blow
down signs fences trees, and scatter loose things
generally. We understand that a great deal of
damage has been sustained by the miners in diff
ferent localities, by the prostration of their fumes

Buckeye Hill, not far from Sweetland The
clusters were immense, and the fruit sweet, juicy
tradiction, the adaptability of soil for prolific
grape culture. The gentlemen above named are
giving considerable of their attention 10 this
subject. If they would furnish us with some
facts relating to their success, the number of

ton of this character, they would confer great
favor, which would be thankfully received.

IN NABEYAScE.-Duringt the earlier part of the
week, it was amusing to notice the eager rush Of
politicians to the post-ofice, on the arrival of
each successive mail-hoping, they did, to
receive some decisive intelligence relating to the
Presidential contest in the State. The Republi-
cans were the most sanguine, but dared not crow,
In the very midst of nervous expectation, in
comes the Pony, announcing the general result !
This was unlooked-for-it was unparalleled
that we should hear who was The President before
learning how o'ir own. State had gone! The Re-
publcans at once ceased to be solictous for State
news. They were satisfied, and at once fell into
mutual congratulations and violent shaking of
hands.

LINCOLN ELEcTED.-The Pony news of the
l4th, puts the question of the Presidential con-
test at rest. Lincoln is chosen by the people.
The Unions special dispatch states that he has
carried Massachusetts by 10000 majority, Maine
by 25,000, New Hamshire 10000, Indiana 25,-
900, Pennsylvania $4,000, Rhode Island 5000,
Vermont 10000, Wisconsin 10000, New York
$4,000, Ohio 10000. He has also carried Iowa,
Connecticut, Michigan, Minnesota, Oregon and
California. These States give Lincoln l63 of
the electoral vote-eleven more than he requires
to make him President by the popular voice.
There is almost a certainty that Lincoln has
also carried Illinois, which casts 13 of an eecto-
raj vote.
Delaware, Maryland, and all the States south
of Tennessee, have probably gone for Brecken-
ridge, including North Carolina and louisiana
Bell has probably carried Virginia, Kentucky
and Tennessee.
Missouri, it is thought, has gone for Douglas.

~. S. McCue, having threatened the North
San Juan folks that he would withdraw
his independent line of stages, running be-
tween that town and Marysvile if. they did
not patrSnze him, now announces that hav-
ing brought them to the true policy, he will
continue the line during the winter. By the
way, San Juan must be considerable of a
town, as no better evidence is wanting than
the planking of streets, the receipt ofnew
goods, the tearing down of old houses and
the erection of new, and q general prepar-
alton for the wintertrade. Riches, happiness
and comfort seem TO blend with the bright
sunshine which beams over it. 1t is truly
a town of pretty houscs, good men, and good

TO perfection. Mr.. Wilder is determined to ram

suitable wagon, with which, on certain specified
days, he will carry his rolls, crackers and COM
fits to the dwellings of his patrons at Swectland,
Birchvile, French Corral, Cherokee, and we
don't know how many other places. This will
prove a decided convenience, and enable house

HYDRAULIC HosE.-We have been shown
specimen of hydraulic hose sewing, performed
by machine invented by Quartus Rice. 1t
makes three parallel seams, which are even,
strong and enduring, and we should think pref
cradle to labor of the same kind done by hand.
The proprietors have a certificate to that effect
from A. NJ. Strobridge & Co., of Sebastopol, who
have been using the hose, and recommend it.
The cost at which this hose can be manufactured
and furnished to the miners of San Juan and
vicinity, it is said, will only be from twelve to
fifteen cents per yard more than the plain duck
ing sells for, in this market. The proprietors
(Horton & Staats) have also newly discovered
process which is applied to the hose, and which
preserves it from rust, mildew and rot. We are
authorised to receive orders for the sale of this
hose; and we make this proposition, to-wit, that
the first conner shall be furnished with hose of
the indestructible kind without extra charge.
