TELEGRAPH ExrEss1os. Yreka Journal
learns that the State Telegraph Company pro-
pose extending their line from Yreka to Hum
boldt Bay, pia Sawyer's Bar and Orleans Bar.
We are informed that the Company have not yet
decided whether to adopt the route in question,
or the one from Wcavervilc to Eureka, if they
do build. There is advantage in favor OF
the Wcavervillc route. Snow never falls TO a
greater depth than four or five inches between
this place and Hoopa Valley and as the line
would follow the river the entire distance
there no high mountains to cross, rs on the
other route.
THE Storm SoUTH.-Onc of the most curious
features of the late storm was its entire depart
ure from old-establshed usages. While the
ground Was not covered with snow in this Basin

the Tower House. On Trinity mountain it was
four feet deep. Road Agent Mayhem and Char
ley Coombs started out on Monday with buggies,
but were unable to get over the mountain. In
addition to the snow, heavy pines had been up
rooted in many places, and blocked the passage.
Charley packed in the mail on Tuesday, and
johnny Houston brought another on Wednesday.
