TIE NINTH ARMY CORPS.

The officer. and soldiers who partici'
pa,ed so gloriously in the late war, are
organizing themselves into memorial
societies TO perpetuate the achievements
of each particular corps, and to keep
up = feeling of good fellowship with Old
comrades On the s b Of last month the
surviving officers of the grand old
Ninth Corps, and many Of those who,
both in the army and navy, took part
in the splendid expedition of Burnside
to Roanoke, in 1862, met in Jersey
City, aud adopted constitution and
bylaws, for the regulation of per
manent society to keep alive the old
historic memories. The Times of that
city thus speaks of The proceedings of
the meeting:
Gen. Burnside. now Governor Of Rhode
Island, with that consideration for the rank
and file which has always distinguished him
and won for him the reSard and affection OF
his soldiers, moved at the very c0mmeLcc
meut of the proceedings that all hOnorably
discharged soldiers should he admitted as
free and honorary members Of the society.
He gluriously aud truly added that the
officers owed all to the men, and that :Ais
courtesy and honor was the least they could
do for the brave fellows who had fought So
well for their country.
When the business was over, and all the
brave and wounded officers and men had
talked over old times and shaken hands with
the General-who was their idol during the
war-and with each other, the whole com
pany resorsed to the Fifth Avenue Hotel.

WHICH WAYi

Since tie connection of the two Crane
divisions Of the great trans -con,ineutH
railway, has been nearing consumma
ton. we have often heard the question
asked, 81 which way will the imports o
supplies for the Great Basin be brough
into it, from the East, or from the Nest?''
This query seems to US easy to An
swer. In the first place, much Of wba,
comprises the grand total of onr wants
in the area of Nevada, Utah and Idaho,
can be had only from the West; and a
great MANY articles of merchandise can
be had only from the East The supply
of these as to whence we will obtain
them, will, of necessity, be governed
by where they can aloue be had. be thai
where i, may. 1t is idle to suppose, for
moment, that tea, coffee, some kinds
at least. rice, or silk, can be furnished
from the East, az cheaply as from the
West. Nor would we ever obtain grain
or breadstuffs from the East, unless
prices were considerably lower there
than in California for, if We cannot,
or do not, supply ourselves, by home
product, with these articles, California
is able and willing to supply the entire
Pacific Slope; aud the short distance
We would have to bring them from our
sister Pacific State, would give her, in
that respect, a decided advantage over
even the Mississippi Valley.
There are some articles of trade, or
will be strong competition between
New York and San Francisco We
mean, of course, articles which may he
had in either place, and for which
neither is dependent on the
other. For our requisite supplies
of these, we will, from motives of self
interest, 60 to whichever Of those
great marts will supply us most cheaplv:
CT, if prices be identical East and
West, go to the Bay City, as il is nenrer
and We are more in sympathy, from /
and former association, !
with her, than with the Empire CRY.
n regard to all such supplies, there is
likely soon to spring mp - rivalry ne
ween the Golden Gate and Gotham

But there is a good ,iu'e in store for

MIR. &. Jacobs, Of Boise City, has just
returned from the end of the c. p Railroad,
and gives quite different version ofthe Good.
rich-Gray affair from that written tofriends
by Mr. Goodrich Instead Of being attacked
by robbers as represented, il appears from
Mr.. Jacobs statement, as published in the
Statesman, that c. L. Goodrich, on his way
to Chicago, engaged his baggage hauled from
the end of the Central TO the end of the
Union Pacific Railroad, there being as yet no
stages ON the route, while he took it afoot.
On the road he was oyertaken by N. W.
Gray, formerly clerk in the store of DuRell
K Moore, in this place. Gray had two
horse wagon and was ON his way with enc
passenger to Ogden to get out a warrant for
some Of the railroad men who had destroyed
some liquors which he was peddling to the
working men to the annoyance Of the over
sage to Blue Creek with Gray, and was to
pay $40 1t was night time, and Gray hav-
ing drank pretty freely, missed the road and
drove mile or two out OF the way Com
ing to a wood-choppers' cabin they reused
up the inmates three in number and in
quired where they were. Being directed,
Gray was turning his team about To go back
to the main road, when Goodrich asked and
got reluctant leave 10 stay all night at the
cabin. Gray demanded the SO before deilv-
ering the baggage; Goodrich took the bag
gage into the cabin followed by Gray with a
pistol in his hand, making threats; Goodrich
and Gray both fired, Gray falling shot through
the heart. Goodrich went out to the wagon
where the other man was holding the horses,
who, being alarmed at the shooting, said,
"what is the matter?n AT which Goodrich
shot him three times, but at last accounts he
was not dead He was taken to Brigham
City and was receiving medical attention
In the meantime the three wood-chopper;
belonging to the cabin, thinking their visit
ors rather a rough set Of characters, had lefl
and got out of the way This is the sum and
substance Of the attack by five robbers as
Mr. Jacobs gathered il on the spot where the
circumstances must have been fully known.
From what now appears, the shooting must
have been done out Of an unworthy fear Of
personal harm If the above version be
correct, and there is no reason TO doubt it,
no one not badly frightened would have sus-
pected an intention to commit robbery n.
W. Gray could exhibit as clear a record as a
majority Of men here where he was well
known.

We extract tho following reference

We extract tho following reference
to the Inauguration of the Pacific railroad
movement. and the active participants in
the ceremonies OF breaking ground, from an
article in the Sacramento Union.
Here the project was conceived and press
ed upon the attention OF the State ana natloh
when it had no friends elsewhere-when
even Chicago was silent and wanting in con
fidence, and san Francisco was pouring cold
water upon it, Here, on the sth of January,
lS63-oyer six years ago-ln the presence ol
the Legislature and numerous citizens, the
Governor Of the State broke the first ground
of the Pacific Railway. There were many
sneakers. Governor Stanford, j. Fl. Warwick
Senator Crane, of Alameda; J. A. Banks, OF
San Francisco isince killed by Indians in Ne
vadal; Van Dyke, Of Humboldt; Rev. J. T.
Peck, w H. Sears, of Nevada; Newton
Booth, DR. J. +. Morse and Charles Croker,
and a prayer by Rev. J. A. Benton There
was much enthusiasm, simulated or not,
and many sncerers, especially from the chief
CITY OF the coast; and yet underlying all.
there was doubt of success, 4 fear that II
was a farce and not fact which was being
inaugurated. Judge Crane, of Alameda, de
livered the regular oratlOn Oh that occasion,
and the event was as became IL, duly snlem-
nized by PRAYER No one then believed the
work could be completed in anything like
the time it has been. One OF the orators
suggested the 4th Of July 1876, as the day
on which its completion would be celebrated,
The great city remained SILENT doubling and
shareless i'll the enterprise. Sacramento
forecast and energy secured from the national
Government the gr,nls-oi land aud loans OF
bonds which have built the road, whose com
pIetion tardv San Francisco now invites US
TO help them celebrate. Ii is meet that We
should take the lead II would only be fair
that San Francisco should postpone her cclc-
bration till the completion OF the Western
Pacific to the Bay. In his inauguration
speech here in 1868. Judge Crane suggested
Pacific Springs, in the South Pass, as the
point where the men OF the Pacific and At
lantic would meet and celebrate this event,
as he carefully put it. probably within the
lifetime Of the largest portion Of those pres.
ent today II will, in fact, be celebrated
everywhere-in all the great cities OF Ameri-
ca. and surely Sacramento, the protector,
and so intimately connected with the work
ia all its stages can afford to forget some
wrongs and burn some gunpowder OH the
occasion.
