FRox Acgo~s THE NJ. xTarys
Mr.. g. r Smith. with a party OF two
men and sevcra! Indians arrived here
day before yesterday from the Yakima,
country with drove Of fifty head of
cattle rta tie Snoqualmie Pass. The
drove included eighteen head Of fine
large work oxen, girthing from fee.
4 inches 10 -, feet 8 inches, and Thirty
two head Of beef steers in excellen.
condition. The party left Kit,i,as for
seattle on the 18th inst. and after a
tourney Of seven days arrived at Suo-
auslmie Prairie. Previous to starting
out, Mr.. Smith sent three Indians over
to the Pass TO ascertain whether such q
Journey st this season Of the year were
feasible or not. The Indians returusd
10 due time and reported bu: three feet
u snow IN the Pass. Upon the rece;p.
Of this news the party started on, "a
route for Seattle; but before reaching
the Pass they we're over.aken By heavy
snow storm which blocked the chan
mel with four additional feet Of snow
Nothing daurted. however. they kep,
OF. and after great deal Of trouble got
through The Pass and the seven feet of
snow At times IT vas difficult to get
along Mr. Smith and his white associ.
ates followed up in the rear of the herd.
while the Indians went before on snow
shoes and drove their cayuses ahead of
them to break the road The horses
proceeded with much difficulty; u. times
were completely buried up IN the snow
and had 10 be siioveled out. At the
time they passed Lake. kitchclas was
very low and only frozen in places.
After they got out Of the snow they en-
countered but little mud until they
reached ne Par,rie This is the rst
time in the history of the country. our
informant states, that band Of cattle
were ever driven through Snoqualmie
Prairie earlier than the month of May.
The winter he says has been remarkably
mild in the Yakima country. The grass
has been green all winter. aud it has
been unnecessary to feed stock. The
heaviest fall Of snow was two inches.
and this remained on only two days.
80 far the thermometer has not fallen
below zero.

GOLD MINES. We were informed by
Mr.. Smith, Of kittitas, that the Peshas-
tin mines are in fourishing condition
There are now, he says. large force Of
men At work there. making excellent
pay. The lode is very extensive and
the quartz rich but it is now ing
worked at great disadvantage. With
the present machinery at least. he
states, one-fouFth of the gold is lost.
This difficulty, he believes, however,
will b. obviated in few months more
10y the introduction of some new ma
chinery. There are also, he says. about
two hundred Cinnamon at iwork in
the Eplacer diggings on the Wenatchie
river. making from - 30 to 800 per
day. These latter diggings be con-
siders inexhaustible, They may be
worked out ever so thoroughly during
the Summer, and early part of the
winter; but the freshet of the follow
ing spring will bring down fresh sup
ply Of gold bearing sediment to the
diggings. The success of the mining
OPP ratioas there, he states. is creating a
home demand for the produce Of the
farmers. and even the Cinnamon h ave
become large produce purchasers.
