From Wood River.

A correspondent Of the Salt LaNe
Tribune, writing from Bellevue, Wood
River. under date Of the 9Th instant,
Says:
The long. dreary Winter is fast draw
ing to n close. and the hardy. restless
population Of this region are beginning
to prepare for II good hearty Summers
work. some i'll developing the mines al.
ready located, aid others in seeking out
the undiscovered treasure. heaps OF this
grand old mountain range.
Our mails are now arriving regularly
by both tho Kel,on and Blacktoot
toutes.
Several new strikes are reported in
tho various m!nes ne% being worked,
the most important n being in the
North Star On the east fork OF Wood
river. They are said to have struck n
big body OF fine shipping ore.
Among the mines that are being
developed this Winter 1 have not heard
of one that has failed to improve as
depth was obtained. In this respect
they have exceeded the most sanguine
expectations.
There is good deal Of talk Of erecting
smclters during the coming Simmer.
Only one. however. is a sure thing, (ihat
Of Fitch u Co.. which is already ON the
ground,) and your smelter men may
very safely calculate dh large shipments
Of ore from this region.
This Summer will witness n grand
advance In improvements in this part
Of the country. Several saw mills are
on the tapis, and With n good supply OF
lumber at reasonable prices, We mag
expect TO see our little log cabins give
way to good substantial lumbet build.
