Oca Roads—The Im?botevf.nt N f.eded. —
There is no season of the year so favorable
for the building ar. l r-'al-l £T mao? as the
present; aud we may say ih re is no county in
the State with =o few g d r a !-. as ii T ;tte.
While Tehama, Yuba, Placer, Kl Dorado, and
other foot hill counties are overriding- almost
Insurmountable difficulties in build;:.cr their
costly and magnificent watron roads through
the mountain fastnesses of the Sierra Nevada
1 In order to tap the great heart of the Territo
rial trade, Butte county, with natural advan
tages superior to that of any of those counties,
better natural r* ad-; with lighter grades and less
distances from the main starting points, lags
behind indifferent to her best interests. The
cariy completion of the rai-r . 1 to this p u
ere long of a direct c v action will
cisco via Marysville and Vallejo roau. pUccf
(his town and county in one of the most favor
able positions of any county in the State ; and,
it now reals with our citizens to take advan
tage of the favorable circumstances by estab
linhing arteries of trade from the Valley to the
Territory. We have it is true, one of the best
wrasron roads in the .Stair, leading from Chieo
kt Honey Lake and Humboldt ; also ore lead
ing from the valley to the s .me j l .ee by Dog
town—but there are other channels through
which similar roads might be bu.lt, diverting
a cock! healthy trade to our c < -irity. The re
organization ol the \\ - odville 1 urnpike Co.,
by our citizens is a stop in the right dirf ction.
and should moot with encouragement from all
who are interested in the future wellfare of the
c< unly. We see that a bill has been introdu
ced, by the lion. <!. S. Sumner providing for
a loan of a certain fund to that corporation to
assist in completing this road. It should puss,
and that soon.as the best season for building
roads is rapidly pa-sing away.
Fuom Aujz >sv. —We have just perused a
lengthy and interesting letter, dated Fort Mo
javc. Territory of Arizona, written by C. K.
Davi«, K'«j . to his brother in Hamilton tp
It speaks highly of the mines in the Territory,
and says “hat California adventurers are pour
ng in here, during the past two weeks, from
ten to forty men daily pn—c> here en route to
the Uio Frio and they report thousands on
their way. and yet not m re than one fourth
come this route—the others by La IV/. Con
flicting reports are in circulation, however, in
regard to the nchne-s and extent - f the mines.
Here on the Colorado, the mines, in my hum
blc opinion, will in time, prove the richest of
any yet discovered—rich in gold and silver
