E. Pickett, who arrived in this city from
the mouth Of Reese River yesterday,
that work on the Central Pacific Rail-
road was not prosecuted with the usual
dispatch. The party Of graders passed
the mouth of the river three days ago,
and he was informed that the rails were
laid only O few miles east OF Winnie
mucca. The rate of laying the rails
had been greatly abated, and did not
exceed o mile and a half a day. Unless
il is increased the road will not reach
the mouth of Reese River much before
