Extraordinary pains arc being taken to cir
culate in extra sheets. pamphlets, &c, Senator
Morton's TRADE against the South in his recent
speech, backed I'D with speeches OF similar
character by Senators Hamilton of Tennessee,
Boreman of West Virginia, and Poole of North
Carolina These men want ''no peace. Their
effort is to crush" the South by oppressive
legislation. They want no Reconstruction IN
less on Radical basis, and in the exclusive IL
terest of the ultra Radical party. The only
kind of craftsmanship they know is political
party triumph, to suit the purposes OF the fac
ton to which they belong.

Road to Eureka.

In addition to the location of road TO Eu-
reka, referred to in letter which we publish
elsewhere, another route has been selected by
q. III. Shepherd, to connect with Elko. We
take the following description of the proposed
route from the certificate on file in the County
Recorders Office:
81, Geo. Ii. Shepherd, Of the county of EIko
and State Of Nevada, do hereby certify and
declare that intend TO construct and maintain
toll road in said county and State. Said toll
road shall be known by the namo of the
Diamond Valley and Eureka Toll Road
commencing at point on the White Pine rond
near Robertson's Station; running thence in n
southerly direction, over the Austin trail
through Red Rock canyon to Red Rock springs;
thence continuing in n southerly direction 10
the summit dividing Huntington aud Diamond
valleys; thence in n sOutherly direction TO
Diamond valley; thence southerly 10 tho
northerly line of White Pine county; thence
southerly along the eastern boundary of Dia-
mond valley, in said White Pine county. 10
Diamond springs, on the overland mail route
the same being the southern terminus of
said road"
Mcssrs. Woodruff Il Ennor. of the stage line,
are interested with Mr. Shepherd in the road.
They arc certain that the distance through to
Elko will not exceed eighty.fye miles, and
that Elko will be tho nearest point for Enreka
to strike the railroad. ..H ...
These wagon road movements are good arl
gury for tho future of this place. The moro
we have of them the better, They nre tho mr.
teries Of commercial life.
