in full operation to the California
State Line - 156 miles from sa-
oramento City-during the summer
Of 1867, when its earnings must be
very large, as the entire trade of Ne
vada, and a large proportion Of that

reliable statistics that in 1868 over
S13, 900 in Gold was paid for
freighting goods from California to
Nevada alone.
This part Of the Great Pacific Rail-
road Route is destined to be one of the
most profitable lines Of railroad in the
world, and its First Mortgage Bonds
are among the best secured and most
desirable investments ever offered.
Over 100000 has already been
expended in grading beyond the point
TO which the road is now running, and
the iron is bought and paid for sufi-
cient to lay the track the entire dis
lance TO the State Line.
The Road has been completed and
equipped thus far without the sale of
q single dollar of its First Mort
gage Bonds, and they are now offered
TO the public for the first time, after
the earnings Of the Road have reached
the sum of $4,000 per month in
Gold, only about 25 per cent. of which
is required for operating expenses.
The Bonds are offered at 90 per cent.

Concerning Polynesia.-M. Quatrefages has
Just published a book on the "Polynesians and
their Migration" His conclusions are these:-
''ihe Polynesians were not created on the spot
Nor are they the last remains OF pre-eXisting
populations. Voluntary migrations have brought
them into the archipelago of Oceanica. From
then type may gather their origin; IT is 10 be
found in the Asiatic archipelago. In some of
those migratlons they would fall in with some
families of the black race who might have
been cast away on the same islands by the
chances of the sea. He considers that none of
these migrations are of date anterior to the first
Oh mpiad; and the great majority occurred
aoOut the commencement OF our epoch"
a Fact for Geologists.--A Cornish journal in
En- oland, s8ys:-1n sinking a shaft at the Gar
den Tin Mine, in MOrvah, the men have met
with a perfect pillar, about eight inches IN
diameter, standing III the solid rock, and very
different in its composition from the surround
in" granite; and, what is stranger still, at the
base of this pillar they have come upon what
they say is fy-wheel of the same material
Large pieces, both of the pillar and wheel,
were exhibited to the adventures at the account
meeting on the I'd, and some portions of both
are still lett unbroken in the rock.
Fertilizing the sahara-The London Scientific
ReUielU says:-"This vast desert whitened BY
the bones of so many unfortunate travellers who
have at various times perished on its inhos-
pi'able sands, is likely, before many ages to be
changed into rich and beautiful country. The
only cause of its sterlity has been The absence
OF water. This will ultimately be supplied by
means of the artesan wells in the utmost abun-
dance. Every day new oases are produced by
the multiplication of these wells, which supply
vast quantities of water.n

THE LINCOLN ASSASSIN.

The JnfOrmer Against John III. Surratt
why He InfOrmed-AlIeged R1Vela-
tlOns of Surratt duplicating JEFF. Davis
Cabinet.
ROME, December 1.-THE man who informed
United States Minister King, in this city, against
John III. Surratt, the Lincoln assassin conspira-
tor, previous to his first arrest when serving in
the Papal Zouaves, Is a French Canadian, mar ed
st. Marie. This man served at one period
during the Southern American Rebellion as
soldier in the army of the American Union.
Alter his discharge he went to Europe and en-.
tered the ranks OF the Papal force, enlisting in
the Zouaves.
When st. Marie was in America both Surratt
and himself paid their addresses to, in fact it is
said both were deeply in love with, one lady
then residing in the city of Washington, d. G.
After their emigration, both having found en-
ployment and shelter in the Pope's army, st.
Marie recognized Surratt, and having fully iden-
tilted him, betrayed him, it is asserted here,
through jealousy.
ST. Marie says that John H. Surratt has
already told him that the assassination of the
late President Lincoln was the result of pre-
concerted Rebel American plot; that he (Sur-
ratt) had carried the details of the plot and
plan of mode of its eXecHtlon direct from the
Davis Cabinet at Richmond to Washington, and
that the subsequent assassination was not only
in full accordance with the desires of the JEFF.
Davis Government and Cabinet but was done
and accomplished by their directions and orders
