The Cottonwood Avalanche.

SALT LAKE CITY. Dec 27-But little adj
dtioual intelligence has been received from the
Cottonwood avalanche. 1t is asserted that
twelve men are missing. The slide came from
the mountains, distance Of a mile with fright
full speed aud force. The storm prevailing, pre-
vented any warning Of its approach until it
was upon the line of teams passing at The point
where it crossed the road. Men, mules, wa
CONS and sacks Of ore were carried away like
wisps. The body Of snow where the force Of
shovellers are at work is very large, and the
work of excavation is very slow. One dead
body was recovered to day. The storm con-
tinues-ran here and suow in the mountains.
