Cor ENOUGH OF Ir.-Marysve Association of
teamsters have been trying their hands in opposi-
ton to the railroad. They loaded at Marysvlle
with freight for Quincy and Taylorville. Their
tariff of freights was adjusted for twelve days
round trip; but they passed through Oroville, on
the homeward stretch, just one month from the
date of leaving the lovely banks of the Yuba. While
unloading down freight at the depot, they were
offered Quincy freight at better prices than they
had realized from Marysvile, but they declined
They had got enough of Quincy. Try again. Ma
rysville draw tie trade of Northern California
if her transfers Association only exhibit the
and pluck to go in and win. We wish they would 1t
would be beneficial to the business interests of
Northern California. if it was not to the Transfers
Association. Perhaps the better plan would be for
the Association to make Orovlle the base of their
operations, assist the people of Butte and Plumas
counties in opening the wagon road to Beckwith
pass and thus have command no: only of the Plu-
mas trade, but good share of the trade of the
State of Nevada. This road, when completed can
be travelled with loaded teams all seasons of the
year, and in that respect will be much better than
the railroad of the Central Pacific company for
their track will be buried in for seven months
of the year. We notice that the main Association
at Sacramento, have subscribed $500 towards con-
structing the Quincy and La Porte Turnpike. Let
them give this Beckwith route fair consideration,
and we doubt not they will find wagon road that
will afford them permanent and profitable bust
ness.

Forbestown.

OF the doings in this vicinity, correspondent
of the Marysville Express gives the following ac-
count. Snowy winter has at last disappeared from
our pineclad hills and lovely spring with all its
splendors, taken possession of mount and dale.
Gradually the little mountain brooks, ra7ines and
rivulets are failing to supply the strrdy miner
with water in sufficient quantities to work his pla
GERS and hence he begins-proviied he be rot en-
trapped in the snsres Of the Montana or some 9th
er wild excitement-to look around for something
worthy of his attention and labor during the sum
mer months. This is easily found, for almost every
hill and raFine in this vicinity, which has poured
forth Its enormous treasures in days now passed,
seounds in gold bearing quartz lodes OF sufficient
richness to warrant working. 1t is quite natural
that during the early development Of California,
while gold was easily attained from ''surface dig
gingsn the more laborious method of extracting
the precious metals from quartz should have been
to great extent neglected; but now, since rich
placers growing scarcer, and thousands of our
population have been disappointed in the once
promising fields of Nevada people at last seem to
have wisely concluded to pay attention to the
enormous wealth in the quartz mines of our own
State Ever since the early part Of ISL or 80
slight attempts at quartz mining have been made
in this neighborhood, and though rock assaying
from $50 to $50 per ton found in sufficient
quantities, the same could not be made available
by the rude process of quartz mining then in use.
Small arastras were on several occasions unsuccess
fully tried, and, because they could not be made
profitable quartz mining for the time being was
abandoned. At last. however, the working of
quartz lodes is being revived and we have reason
to believe will be carried successfully. Messrs
PARKS & PIArT owners of several valuable quartz
lodes here, are now thoroughly renovatng and i'm
proving their steam mill, and will commence crush
ing ore from the Spanish Leads Nos. and in the
early part of next week. Rock from these lodes
has been sufficiently ed to warrant the assertion
of its richness. Under the supervision of A.
STEVENSON, Esq, the loies of ROBERTS x Co, and
PLUM, MADDOX Il Co., about two miles from here,
are now being worked and show very fattering
prospects Shafts over one hundred feet deep are
being sunk on these ledges and the rock taken out
is profusey mixed with the "oro.' Ere long two
ten stamp mills will be placed upon them, and be-
fore the veriure of the comming summer shall
have disappeared the steam whistle will be heard
from quite number of mills in and surrounding
Forbestown. and the lively times of yore will re-
turn to once more.

| SoxE Tine SINCE ne mentioned that 'Ftwo men
who had been dnped into starting for Susaayille on
the Chico route, had struggled through the snow
into the Big Meadows. and been carried iato Sa-
sanyille By Gen. Woop's stage" We were 50 IN :
formed by driver on the route. By way OF denia
the Sage Brush says their names are Jack Doe
and Dick Roe Not knowing what their names
were, we shall not dispute the point with the old
Sage Hen ITSELF or its pinieathering chicken at the
terminus that jumps on the old Sage Hens back
whenever she Sqlagks. Bat We might nave men
toned almost parallel case OF two gentlemen WITH
whose names the public are familiar, VIZ: A. C.
LoSGxoRE, of the Sage Brush, and Judge HARKI-
son, of Lassen county. These two gentlemen had
occasion to visit the Valley last winter, and not
withstsnding Gen. WooDs line was running, gave
the Chico route the preference and started on foot
In course o. time they arrived at Chico, and came
thence by the Oregon line TO OroFille. We can
well imagine why the Judge should wish to come
TO Oroville. because he had some legal business TO
call him here; but why the other gentleman, after
arriving his Heaven of Chico and resting in BID
WELLS bosom, should wish TO wander therefrom,
seems unaccountable. Bat they both arrived in
Oroville ultimately The feet of the Judge were
white frost, but repudiated the idea of snow on
the Chico route. The Office occupied Jointly by our
District and County Judges has q comfortable and
cheerful CRATE and there they sat and chatted and
talked law with their brother wig from Lassen,
while the latter gentleman engaged in thawing
out and oiling his frozen pedal extremeties. The
soothing and oiug process continued, until an au-
ger supposed TO belong to one of the Colusa Oil
Companies, penetratrted into the room, and was
broken off in the masonry of the crate On his
return TO Lassen, the Judge took passage with Gen.
Woops line, and on his way home. it is said, with
what truth we know not, that he emp loyed many
an extra judicial oath in stating that he had been
deceived into going down the Chico route by an in
fernal rascal who accompanied him, and that there
was as mach snow the Chico route as there was
on Gen. Woods line. LoNGMoRE, however, was
true to his allegiance, and returned by the Chico
route it is said o. foot and alone. 1t is further
said that he Acknowledges to freezing his toes on
the homeward trip. If this be so, we beg to as
sure him that the future shall forever witness
sincere endeavors to avoid again accidentally
treading upon them.

GANG BROKEN UP-The Colusa Sun, of Satur-
day last contains account of the breaking up of
a gang of horse thieves and murderers, on Cache
Creek Yolo county. The officers of Colusa county
one of the gang, who glad to turn States eyi-
dence, and reveal the operations of the band He
informed them of the murder OF a Spaniard by
JOSE GONZALES, who arrested and lodged IN JAIL.
The murdered Spaniard was an escaped convict,
named JOSE MARIA JUAREz, one of the gang, who
had Just sold flock of stolen sheep for 81 200. 1t
is thought this successful raid upon the band will
pretty effectually break it up. The officers from
Butte have been down into the same county, and
nipped one WM. SHERMAN, who may or may not be
a member of the gang, for running off with a Chi
naman's mules. Yoo must look TO her laurels, or
her reputation will soon be none of the best

CENTRAL P. r. R--The Sacramento Bee states that
the "Snow is still from three to four feet deep on

employed by the c. P. r. Co.. are busy excavating
snow in search of the grade pegs driven down last
summer. Gentlemen, why not exhibit the good
sense to come to oroville, and adopt practible
open route The hundred thousand dollars that
you paid your engineer to report gainst the Feaih
er route has been more than made up to you by
taxes wrung from the people of California bat will
ultimately recoil on your heads, and leave you an
inheritance Of public contempt only, if you do not

FoR IDAHo.-Mr. w. r. L. FREREs, of Boise City
Idaho has been in town during the week receiving
and shipping supplies for Idaho He is a success
full quartz operator in that territory, and shipped
two mills from New York for Boise. BY the mis-
representations of those connected with the Chico
swindle be was induced to ship his machinery to
the bco Landing, point farther from its desti-
nation than Oroyille and at double the cost that it
would have required to place it in 0roville. Upon
examination and inquiry into the facts, he became
satisfied of the imposition that had been practised
upon him, and stated that he should have shipped
to 0roville had he been acquainted with the facts.
\ few such practical jokes this one, will let these
swindlers completely out with the business public
OF Idaho and California. The fact Is that Chico
has built some forty fifty miles OF road to
meet that burgh with the Oroville and Susanville
road, and that is al there is of the famous Chico
route. To avail themselves of this forty or fifty
miles of wagon road, shippers to Oroville must go
% miles out OF their way; and those who ship to
the Chico Landing for that purpose, are compelled
10 pay double the amount of freight charges that
they would should they ship to Oroville. Transfers
who acquainted with both roads give that from
Oroyile the preference Go on, Chico; you may be
able to deceive few more Idaho men, who not
familiar with the facts; but take good look at Mr..
FREREs, for when he once turns his back upon you
you will see him no more. No old hen ever made
greater cackling over false attempt to lay egg,
than BIpwELL and his bummers have over this for
syor fifty miles of road, that extends through
wilderness Of mountains TO the old, long travelled
yoad between Or0Yille and Susanville
