Taking the railroad at Roseville Junction, l5
miles from Sacramento, they steamed it to Alta,
(then the terminus) distance of 10 miles from
Sacramento. There he took the stage for vir-
ginia, ria Dutch Flat and Donner Lake. crossing
the mountains in the night. The roads were in
miserable condition /; horses and the propelling
power of heavy freight teams foundering in mud,
traces breaking and drivers swearing, rendered
the trip wide-awake one. Arrived at Virginia

Stopped at Carson City, the State Capital two
days, to recruit, being no longer in fear of ha-
beas or any other writ which might deprive him
of his prisoner. While there he visi,edthe PEN

material of which it is built was obtained At
the present time most of the prisoners are en-
gagged in quarrying and stone-cutttng, and ap-
parently as contented with their lot as it is pos

prisoners were confined at that time. He thinks
convicts are not better cared for in any similar

that the building will be completed the coming
summer. Mr.. Cochran says that notwithstand-

country has received, he saw some very fine

Close OF THE VoLUNE.-The present number
completes the Eleventh Volume of the TRINITY
JOURNAL. Five hundred and seventy-two times
has the paper been sent forth-not single issue
having gone by default during the whole time, Ell
ther for the observance of holidays or any other
cause 1t is true that some arrangement occur
red after the FIRE of '63, which destroyed the en-
tire material of the office, but even then half
sheet was regularly furnished to subscribers
without any break of dates. 1t seems a long
time since we put the first number of the JouR-
NAL to press in the little wooden building which
then occupied the present site of Langs store,
and when we remember the many disadvantages
attending the publication of a paper so far up in
the mountains, We feel like congratulatng our
self that no single number has ever been missed
during the whole eleven years of its existence.
With the close of the Volume many subscrip-
tions expire. We trust they will be promptly re-
newed. We will also take occasion to remind
those indebted to US that money is as much re-
quired in publishing newspaper as in conduct
ing any other business

LEWISTON TURSPIKE.-A correspondent calls
attention TO the fact that we stated in the last
number of the JOURNAL that Grant Taggart was
making his regular trips, but failed to mention
that he made them over the road. He fur
ther states that the Lewiston road has never
been impossible for twenty-four hours at any
time, and probably never will be. Having stated
in a previous number that all or nearly all the
bridges on the old road had been destroyed, aud
knowing full well that all parties who felt any
interest in the matter were aware that the Lew
iston turnpike was the only outlet Shastawards,
for teams, at the present time, is the only reason
for having failed to mention the fact that Grant
Taggart's buggy came and went by that route
That all may understand the true condition of
things, we will state that the road from Lewis
ton to the Tower House is open for travel, and
that the old road has not yet been placed in
repair, but will be speedily possible.

ment of 2, 2,235 ,063 subject to draft This would
make the total fighting force of the Free States,
between the ages of eighteen and forty-fve, and
in good physical health. and not foreigners not
naturalized, to be 3,245 ,579 men. And careful
estimates in the War Department lead to the con-
clusion, that Notwithstanding the losses during
the war, there were more in the loyal
States subject to the call of the Government for
military purposes, at the close Of the rebellion
than at the beginning. Yet these losses were
very heavy. Two hundred and eighty thousand
four hundred and twenty men, loyal, true and
brave, met their death on the battlefield or in
the hospital.
THE STORM AT CHIco.--The last number of
the Courant furnishes the following information
in connection with the late g wet'' spell in that
locality :-ss One of the heaviest storms since
the winter of ls6l-62 has been raging for the
past ten days. In fact, it has been so long
time since there was a pleasant day, that we
have lost the reckoning entirely. Staging is out
of the question, and mails are things that were.
The whole world is entirely cut off from Chico,
for the present, until Feather River falls, and the
Sacramento abates its waters, and the numerous
creeks calm down. and the clerk of the weather
shuts the windows of heaven, which, to all ap-
pearances, he has gone off and left open. The
fact is, it is dsagreeably demn'd damp. The
rain percolates everywhere water is becoming a
nuisance ; we have almost resolved to become a
water-totaler, and sign the pledge against using
it except for mining purposes. 1t is not enough
that the rain comes in torrents, but Old Boreas

A GREAT SUCcEss.-Since the occasion of the
Sanitary Ball, two and a-half years ago, no such
assemblage as that of New-Year night has been
witnessed at the Theater We speak not only in
connection with the number present, but of the
universal good feeling and happiness which per-
yaded the throng of men and women assembled.
Though the weather was disagreeable, sixty
two ladies graced the occasion with their pres
ence. There was an evident determination on
the part of the friends of education to make the
party a success it was given for the benefit of
the District School Fund. We are glad to hear
that not less than hundred tickets were Sold
1t is broadly hinted that some parties who are
affected with 90 ngger on the brain y labored to
have the result otherwise. This is explained in
the fact that three or four well-behaved colored
children are allowed seat in the Public School,
and to participate in the educational privileges
dispensed there. Unrighteous opposition gener-
ally works the greatest injury to itself.
Twelve sets of dancers occupied the floor for
six hours The ladies had prepared lunch
which heartily relished by the assembly at
midnight. The dancing and dressing rooms were
clean and comfortable, the music was excellent
in short, it was a jolly good time, and resulted
in good. The Trustees-Messrs Carr, Williams
and Rpch-deserve credit for the energy display
ed in carrying out the object of the party. They
could not complete their report of receipts and
expenditures in time for this is ,ue, but will do
so in a communication in the next number of the
JOURNAL. 1t is quite certain, however, that $500
will be netted to the School Fund as the result
of the New-Years party.

ENROLL Your NAMEs.-A glance at the Great
Register of the county, which is open for sigma
lures during the Clerks Office hours, shows
that less than one-half the voters of the county
have yet enrolled their names. 1t is also notice
able that great many voters living in the Wea-
vervlle Basin, and who have daily opportunity
to do So have failed to perform this duty. This
Indifference is reprehensible, especially on the
part of Union men. Late advices from Wash
ngton indicate the passage of law convening
the 4Oth Congress on the coming 4th of March.
If such law is passed, the necessary legislation
will undoubtedly be had to enable California to
elect its Congressional delegation in season to be
present at such meeting, and the election will
follow closely upon the passage of the law. AS
there is question whether voters who have not
entered their names on the Great Register will
be entitled to vote at such election, it becomes
the duty of Union men to have their names en-
rolled without further delay. California must
elect three earnest Radical Union Congressman
if called upon to choose, and in order to do so
Union voters must be on the alert, and not take
the chances of having their votes rejected on the
ground of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS of not having en-
rolled their names on the Great Register. Go to
the Clerks Office at once, and put end to all
doubt by answering the necessary questions and
having your name booked.
