The FIa.llpsa Pass.

{. Wilson Hill and John S. Lambert re-
turned on Monday from passage over the
mountains on the Henness Road. By the
first named gentleman we are put in po-
session Of certain interesting facts which
We give the public.
The road is not quite completed, but is in
excellent condition as far as finished and
is very tolerable the remainder Of the way.
A number of gentlemen Of means having
lately taken the remaining stock in the
road, it will be pushed to completion as
soon as possible, though it is proposed to
take no toll on the road till it is in the II ost
complete possible order. Travellers through
the Henncas Pass are subject at the present
time, nor will they be for months to come,
to no tolls whatever
On no part of the road is there n grade
of more than sixteen inches TO the rod and
this grade is not found except on four or
five miles. The highest usual grades are
not to exceed nine inches. The ascent to
the summit is on an incline five miles long,
and the descent on the other side seven
miles with grade Of not more than three
inches to the rod. 4 better mountain
road, it is conceded, has never been travel
ed. Mr.. Hill met Col. Tilton, of San Fran
CISCO on the road for the first time. who
was enthusiastic in its praise. He had
been over The Placeryille route four times,
and unqualifiedly expressed a preference
for the Henncss road.
Nessrs. Hill and Lambert met several
cmigrant wagons, on the other side of the
summit. The emigrants represent that
maps and printed advice has been circuIat
cd all along the road to Salt Lake, to in
duce emigrants to enter California by the
way of PIaceryilc. The IIenncss route is
represented in these documents as full of
canons whose hills can only be descended
by ropes. These representations have
turned hundreds from the Hcnness road;
but the truth is coming to light rapidly
Nessrs. lIill and Lambert met a six mule
team on the road with eighty hundred of
freight going to Washoe, and numerous
travellers
The Henness turnpike occupies such ad-
vantages of location that the travel of
Sierra and Placer counties is bound to flow
into it near the summit. Going from this
city the yery hardest part of the route is
between here and Arnod's Rauch Beyond
that point to Virginia City the road is easy
and in capital order. It is in general
twelve feet in width.

BRECKENRIDGE MEETISG.-The Breckin-

Saturday evening last, by Gwin, Tilford
and Judge Searls. Gwin devoted most of
his speech to yiniiication of himself, and
pretty good defense he made Among
other things, he said, he was not candi-
date for reelection to the United States
Senate; he had solicited an Office for the
last time; he had been almost twelve wears
in the Senate; it was all the honor he COW
eted; but the small politicians who were
fighting to succeed him, he would take
good care that they never get there His
enemies, he said, he had made milestoncs
of, all along his course. The speech had
an independent and defiant air. and seemed
to be very well received by his partisans.
Frank Tilford followed in one of his
characteristic speeches. Frank is an oiy
speaker and take him in a room, never fails
to acquit himself we'll. For the kind. Til
ford made a good speech, however, on
Saturday night
Judge Searls, in obedience to a call from
the crowd, mounted the stand at the cou-
elusion Of the speech of Tilford, and spoke
somewhat at length.
The crowd in attendance was the largest
we have seen during the canvass, but we
did not discover any remarkable degree Of
enthusiasm. John I. Crenshaw, Esq, pre-

BEEs.-We have been requested to give
our experience in raising the honey be in
the mountains. 1t may do some good, and
as the story is short. we give it for the ben
GIFT Of those whom it may concern.
We purchased five hives Of bees direct
from the east in February last. They were
transferred to patent hives and kept at
Oakland till May. From the most buagling
carelessness nearly all the bees, together
with splendid display of eggs and Ioryp,
were destroyed before the swarms were
put down at our domicil. \ week after
their arrival not more than a pint of bees
was left in all. These were put into two
hives, and small portions Of the unbrokcn
comb were given them. Daring the first
month it vas a mooted question whether
the insects would live or die, but finally
the problem was solved in favor of life.
The colonies increased so rapidly that in
August two swarms were taken from one
hive and one from the other At this time
we have five hives in good condition The
honey made from the mountain flowers is
far superior 10 any we have ever tasted in
in the valleys. 1t is generally Of very
white appearance, aromatic and rich. It
is proper to state that at this season of the
year the bees frequently lose their queens,
and considerable care is requisite to keep
them supplied with the indispensable head
Of the family.

THE NEVADA JOURNAL,
FRIDAY MORNING, o9r. 70, 1sse.

FA1LED.-Thc fusion Of the fag ends of all
parties opposed to lincoln in New York
has failed, \ great many conferences. eau
cuses, private conventions and suggestions
of the political traders have proved abort
f'c. The elements were inconcruous and
like fire and water could not exist harmoni-
ously together The old Fillmore men found
1t rcpulsire to their stomach to associate
with the Irish, and the Irish stifl retained a
hatred of their old Native American enc
mics. No political patchwork could be
gotten up satisfactory to beth, and the con-
clusion was arrived at that each had better
take its own road to destruction. The at
tempt to harmonize the Breckinyidge and
Douglas factions in the Empire State has
also proved miserable failure, and the war
fare between them is more bitter than ever.
Such being the discordant state of the ele-
ments opposed to Lincoln in New York, it is
conceded that no hope is entertained of de-
feating the Railsplitter in that State. The
thirty-five electoral votes of New York may
be counted sure for Lincoln.
The attempted fusion in the keystone State
turns out similar TO these in New York
There is regulsr Douglas electoral ticket
backed up ostenssbly BY john ". Ferncv
and his paper, and Il fusion ticket under the
guardianship of a few spoilsmen. But the
influence of Buchanan and his friends will
be reluctantly given the latter, if at all
The sure prospect of defeat staring both in
the face quenches all enthusiasm. and the
tariff proclivites of the Railsplitter ensure
him an abundance of sympathy among the
protective Pennsylranians. As affairs now
stand IN the old Keystone State nothing
short of more potential ballot-box stuliing
and corruption than was practiced in Penn
Fylvania in 1856, can defeat Lincoln in that
State in November.

The Fugitive Slave Case,
PalLApKLpuIA. March


A hearing was had this morning before
Judges Allison and Thompson, upon the
writ Of habeas corpus granted in the fugi-
tive slave case. The return HpOn the writ
by the United States Marshal was a long
statement Of the circumstances of the case,
concluding with the information that before
the service of the said writ the fugitive had
been remRnded to the custody of his claim.
ant in pursuance Of an order Of the United
Statos Court and, therefore, that the TO.
spUndent could not produce the body as orr
dered
After argument by George N. Wharton
for the respondent, and Mr. Earl for the
applicant for the writ, Judge Allison stated
that the fret question TO be considered by
the Court was whether the writ had been
properly g Gnted, as the statements in the
return disclosed lac,s which were not known
when the writ was applied for and issued.
The application only stated that the man
was restrained Of his liberty by Jacob =
Yost IL now appears that when the writ
was granted, the prisoner was not in ousto'
dy of the Marshal but actually in the GUS
tOdy Of the Circuit Court, hearing of the
case being in progress. As the writ of ha-
beas corpus would not have been granted
had these facts been known, he suggested
the case should be argued Us if an appiica-
tion for writ The argument of the case
was then postponed until Saturday
