Of Deep Bottom, point between Malvern

ed in earth works Immediately hey ond-and
this was the situation at last accounts.
The importance in which this movement
is held by the enemy, is found in the state'
ment that Longs,reet and F'z Hugh Lee,
with from twenty forty thousand troops, have
been sent to the valley of Virginia to rein
force Early.
There seems to be no doubt that the oper
atons before Petersburg and Richmond have
become secondary to those in northern Vir
ginia, and that hereafter the remal kable fea-
lures Of the campaign must be looked for in
the region of the Potomac.
The news from Sheridan, in command of
the Federal forces in the Valley is contradc-
tory. He is reported as having advanced
southwark to Strasbure; then falling back to
Winchester and torliiying; and again at
StrasburG conestng the advance of Early

movement. The N. Y llerald's correspond
ent SAYS the indications of rebel advance
is evidenced by a skedaddling movement Of
citizens northward. Sheridan's rear is also
reported as infested with guerrllas.
Nothing from Sherman's army in front Of
Atlanta.
The accounts of the passing Of the forts
below Mobile, by Farraout's fleet, has been
confirmed. The rebel rams Tennessee and
Selma were captured, The Federal ram Te

men carried down in Tie wreck Fort Nor

as having burned large number of vessels

CENTRAL Pacific RAILROAD ASSESSMENT

CENTRAL PACIFIC RAILROAD ASSESSMENT.
This "assessment' has been discussed con
siderable Of late. The Company returned
their assessment at 81 ,28O for their rolling
stock, s2,250 for buildings and sixteen miles
of railroad at $4,000 per mile. The Asses
sor, Mr.. Stevens, refused to list the road at
that rate, and assessed it at 500, 900 per mile,
making total assessment of S39s Sl5.-
The Board of Equalization on Wednesday
last reduced it down to s252,Oll.

EoUALIzING THE SExEs.-l}efore the war
there was an excess Of $50, 900 males in the
United States. In this State, in ;he same
year, there was an excess of $1,000 males
over females. In Illinois there was an ex,
cess of $4,000; Michigan had 10000; Wis
consin, $4,000. In New York and Massa
chusets the females exceed the males. 1t
will be seen that we must lose 100000 men
by the war before the sexes will be equal
The sexes are considered about equal now.

ROAD OvERsEEEs. As no reference has
been made to the nomination Of Road Over
seers in the several Townships, in the calls
for the Democratic District Conventions. we
would suggest that this matter be considered
at the primary elections, and delegates au-
thorized to nominate for their townships,
when at Convention, and thereby save the
additional trouble and expense OF holding
Township Conventions.

New Railroad Projects.

The 'Yuba Railroad Company organized
to construct Railroad from Lincoln to Ma
rysvile, has recently been in negotiation
with the people Of the latter place to obta II
subscription sufficient to finish the grading
Of twelve miles into that city. The amount
asked for is S25,OOO 1t seems that, if mo-
ney is secured to grade the track the neces,
sary negotiations for iron can be made by
the company.
This movement has given rise to coun-
ter project, in Sacramento, to construct a
road from a junction with the Central Pacific
Railroad, at Dry Creek, into MarysviIle,
which the Sacramento papers claim can be
cheaply built, and that the Central Pacific"
has sufficient iron on hand to Law the track.
The apparent cause for this sudden move.
meut for a Railroad connection with Marys-
vile seems to be in the fact that the Free
port branch Of the Sacramento Valley Rails
road is soon to be opened for business, and
it is desirable TO the rival railroad interests
at Freeport and Sacramento 20 secure the
Several meetings have been held at Marys-
vile to consider the subject, and the people
seem disposed to take hold of the road to
Lincoln, and give the Dry Creek project
the 90 by. In fact they do not take the lat
ter into serious consideration, more than to
inquire by what light the Central Pacific"
propose to use a portion of their iron, (pnr-
chased for the main line, toward Dutch Flat. J
for road toward MarysviIle. They think
bond aud stockholders might have something
to say in the way of protest to such diver
sion. We think tie inquiry quite pertinent
and surnise that Placer county is somewhat
interested in the question. But if the MAJ
rysvilIe people conclude to take hold of the
Lincoln, AS appearances now indicate, the
other project will fall through, as two roads
would be a losing operation.
1t is possible that ths much ridcued
Gooseburg (|) railroad, is yet to be sore
thorn in the side of Sacramento.
