from the Nalla Walla Union.
The o. :. y. Co. are now running
three boats on the route between Port
land and the Cascades, two between
the Cascades and the Dallcs, and five
on the river above Cello. With all
this they can not carry the grain away
rs fast as the railroad company deliv-
crs ii at Wallula. When the late Tho-.
X. Mccoy, at the supper given in this
city some wears ago to the directors of
the .. :. y. Co., said: "NNe will sink
your boats with wheat" they laughed
at the idea. To-day these boat, would
sink at the wharf if the flow of wheat
was not checked ut this end of the
railroad Notwithstanding the fact
that they have since then built steam
er, that carry over $50 tons at load
from Wallula. The present trouble
seems to be on the route between the
Dalles and Cascades, where the large
boats II. h. IHOmPs0R and NOupf6j0
QUecR have not capacity enough to
meet the wants of trade. To meet this
difficulty it is probable that by the
opening of another harvest year II

from the Dalles to the Cascades by the
O. Il. X y. Co. BY the construction
of this portage road about 80 mile,
long, the company would save hand
ling the grain at the Dalles and the
Upper Cascades, and be enabled to
carry it between the upper and lower
river one day quicker than they can
now do it, and we believe at an cN-
pcnsc not greater than that now in
cured. The survey for this road is
now being made.

Ben Snipes, of this city, went to
Walla Walla last week to purchase a
quantity of wheat on which to run his
new mills at this place. Owing to the
impOssibility of getting it here in the
next twenty days, he was obliged to
return here without making pur-
chase, and has begun to look about for
wheat bargains in the neighborhood
of Goldendale. The export of wheat
from Wallula alone this year will eX-
ceed that of last year from the four
points of Tukanon, AlmOta, Cmatilla
and Wallula. People living in Port
land have no idea of the vast resources
of the great productive region of which
our city is the outpost. The railroad
officials Of Walua will receive but
1900 tons this week, in order to give
delayed freight a chance to reach Port
land. II. p. Isaacs, of Walla Walla,
was compelled on the 22d to decline
an offer for 250 tons of flour for ship
mcnt to Liverpool because he could
get no guarantee that it would be de-
livered in Portland on the 18th of Oct,
two days before the ship was to sail
for Cork. The trade has outgrown
the most sanguine expectations of
those most directly to be benefited by
its expansion.
