OCEAN ROUTE TO IDAHo.-The ocean route
This season will wind up all trade and travel
to Idaho by the web foot route. Californians
will command it all. A correspondent from
Idaho writing to the Sacramento Union, says
mot wagon has yet arrived from the Colum-
ba river, whereas, by the direct overland
route from California many have arrived at
Owyhee and Boise City" The correspondent
further says:
Within the past fortnight -four has ranged
from $50 to Sl30 per barrel, freight being
$500 per ton from the Umatilla Landing,
though merchant told me to day that he had
u cargo engaged at twenty-oens per pound
How does this agree with the seven and half
cents per pound published in the Portland
pspersa
TIE merchants here are beginning to under.
stand that goods bought in San Francisco
must take different direction to arrive here
in the shortest time and at the least cost yet
there are so many here dependent on the Port
land merchants for supplies and credit that it
will be some time before very great change
will take place n the mode of transportation.
One thing is certain that every male or female
intending to visit California the coming fall
will 60 direct from Boise City overland, and
avoid the mountain roads, the Columbia river
rapids, the Columbia river bar, and Hoaday s
steamers particularly. The large number of
people who have arrived here from California
bear no love to Oregonisns or their road to
this place, most of them having started in
January and February, only to be detained at
Portland and the Dalles, costing them to get
that far on their journey more than if they had
stayed at home two months longer, or came
the direct overland route. And again, this
state of feeling is made more bitter by the
silence Of the Portland papers in these two
months in relation to the condition of the river
and road travel, which was impossible all that
time. Many were compelled to return back
to California from the Daes and Portland,
cursing the deception practiced on them by
the facts not having been made public-a
great oversight for the Portland capitalists, as
it was driving immigrants from their own
doors. They may publish their statements re-
lative to time and cost OF travel-by their
round about way to get here-which will prob
ably apply to about one month in the twelve,
but for the balance of the year add four hun
dred per cent, and you will have the exact
figures and | ask you, for the truth of my as
sertioDs, to inquire of any Californian whom
you may meet who has ever been here, whether
miner or merchant, if my statements are not
the troth the whole truth, and nothing but
the truth"

The PACIFIC RAILRoAD.-The Virginia
Union, speaking OF the completion Of the Cen
tral Pacific Railroad to Clipper Gap, says:
The road will probably be completed to H.
linoistown this Fall, a distance of sixty seven
miles from Sacramento, aud nearly one half the
distance 10 the State line, leaving but about
one hundred miles of staging to reach our city
next Winter. The people of Nevada more
than any others, are interested in the rapid
progress of this work, and therefore we hail
with delight the announcement of the compile
tion of each additional link in the chain which
is TO bind US TO the tide waters of the Pacific
and market. 1t is also approaching US rap
idly from the Mississippi river, but it has so
long distance 10 come over to reach US from
the East that we expect to be in communca
ton with the Pacific long before the shrill
whistle of the locomotive is heard this side of
the Rocky Mountains. Yet the great impor
tance of this railroad to the nation Is made so
apparent to all by the events of the war that
renewed energy will be applied to hasten its
completion. The last thousand miles will be
constructed in half the time it takes to build
the first thousand. The great work, however
is now fairly under way at both ends of the
route. and there is no reason TO apprehend that
it will be unnecessarily delayed.

Is,Asr Asrnux-Tbe condition of affairs

ISaASE AsYLux.-The condition Of affairs
at our State Insane Asylum is most shocking
to humanity. Instead of it being home and
comfort for our unfortunate fellow beings, it is
to them as the Andersonville prison to our
Federal soldiers. By testimony given it would
appear that instead of taking care Of, the in
mates are being murdered BY the paid brutes
that have them in charge. The death of
James Lilly on the 18th of May last, commit
ted from Sacramento county. yentilates the
terrible condition of affairs existing at the
Asylum. 1t was alleged that said Lilly died
of maltreatmens by one of the employees of
that institution. Coroner Bond held post
mortem examination over his body. The tes-
timony OF Rudoph Knapp, who was employed
in the Asylum, plainly shows that Lilly came
to bis death by violent means used by one
Drake. The testimony of Knapp is in full in
the Bee We have but room for the follow
ing description OF the Andersonville of Cali
fornia, as it is rightly called by the Bee:
Il remember about Lilly particularly, be

enthusiastic Union MRRS Meeting at

Especial TO the InteIIigclcer by the United States
LtHe.l
CAMBRIDGE, o., Sept. s.
The Union mass meeting held here
to-day was attended by thousands, al
though the weather was not favorable
for n large crowd; but still they flocked
in to hear the veteran soldier and his
friend Galloway address them.
Gen. Cox was introduced to. the
assembly by Capt. WIN. NJ. Farrar,
President of the Committee of Arrange
ments. He thanked the good people OF
old Guernsey for SO large an audience,
and for the interest they seemed to
manifest towards him, and the welfare
of our State and Union. He described
his position in regard to the negro
suffrage question, as it had been
requested by some of both parties anx-
iOus to know by his own mouth. It was
in the same words and language AS his
oberlin, o., letter.
The people are much pleased with
the General and his principles in regard
to the all absorbing theme now being
discussed by party politicians, and will
give him a large hoist at the ballot box
this Fall. The General retired amidst
u shout of applause.
Next was introduced the Hon. Sam.
Galloway, who made his appearance
amid a cheering applause. Old Samuel
always brings AN applause wherever
he makes his appearance. His counte-
nance seems to cheer every one.
He made several strong arguments
against the resolutions passed by the
Virginia legislature in "'9s" affirming
the right OF secession, as being of the
same position taken by Calhoun in '32,
and as the same taken by the rebels in
this rebellion, aud also as the same
endorsed by the Democrats in their
platform at Columbus. He made very
pointed and strong arguments
mixed with his anecdotes, which
brought forth immense applause. Gal
loway retired amid shower of APP
plause.
The good people will not forget their
duty, but will give their support to the
General.

conductor slightly. Among the slight
ly injured was Mr.. Van Valkenb1rg,
