Ss «6 ALCO et a National E NEVADA NATIONAL. Engineer Elliott's Keport. The Nevada Journal, of last Friday contains the Report of Eagineer Elliott, of his preliminary survey of a railroad line from . Nevada to Anburn, made during the last . spring. After giving a particular description . of the line assurveyed Mr. Elliot proceeds . to say ~~ “ . would reccomend the adoption of the ma xXium grades on the Baltimere and Ohio . Railroad, which would reduce the actual leosta of the construction of the Road. If disirable, however, the grades may be re. duced by inefeasing the length of the Road. . Ido not deem it necessary to attempt to point out or en/imerate the advantages that . would arise from the construction of this ‘road. The line extends through one of the . most populous portions of the State—the land adjacentto it is rich in agricultore, lamber sod mineral wealth—in fact the . traaspurtation of quartz rock alone from . Nevada County to a convenient water power, which might be obtained at Folsom, . would be one single branch of the business . treated by the road in which thousands of . laborers, now idle, might be profitably em. ployed, for 1am informed by a gentieman engaged extensively in the quartz business, . atGrass Valley. that the only impediment toentire success, isthe heavy expense attecding the employment of steam power in crushing the rock, the lowest figure being aboat $15 per ten .If the road was construc. ted the rock could be transported and.crusb. ed by water power at a cost of about $5,00 . per ton. . Another branch of business that wonld be . created in the event of this roid being extended to the vicinity of the mountain lakes would be the ice trade; the whole supply . of the State would pass over the road. As to thisline ultimately becoming a part of the main trank of the Pacific Railroad I . can enly say that from information gathered . from Ditch Surveys that have been made in the vicinity of the head waters ot the Yubas I am ofopinion that favorable line can be found to connect with Lieut. Beckwith’s Survey, without tunnelling the Sierra Ne. vada, and connect with the same ata .point east of Mud Lake, . = / . rection on the bottles, This great snti-dixpeptie fs 1 j,, conclusion, gentlemon,T find it imposi. the result ot profound and elaborate studying of one ¢ of the most celebrated physicians of the present . able tostate accurately the cost 0 constructing this road. The probabic cost, however, . will not exceed $2.000,000. lum induced . to believe that the amount of business on the road when completed, will pay from 18 to 25 per cent on the investment. I deem it my duty here to acknowlege the . material aid rendered by Jobn Ostrom, Surveyer and Civil Frgineer of Nevada, who assisted me in the labors of the field. To Charles Marsh, Exq.

A Newly Married Pair in an Unpleasant Predicament. The Cincinnati Enquirer gives the particu: . lars of an unpleasant predicament in which a vewly married pair recently found themselves placed in that city. It appears that the conple had been united in the morning and started immediately on a bridal tour, bringing up at night at the Burnet House in Ser Meri_arion.—aA Soldier was recently . discharged from the guard house at Fort . Ludlow Washington Territory, where he had . been confined several months for desertion. to the rear of the house, where several soldiers were employed in cutting wood, and asked one of them to look at bis axe. Not anticipating any barm, be consented, when the first soldier deliberately placed bis own foot upon a fog, and severed one of bis toes. ‘ One of the soldiers then attempted to take a the axe from him, but was forced away by a Tt was qnite evident that the pair were blow aimed at bimself, when the discharged unfamiliar with metropolitan sights.—The soldier again placed bis foot upon the Ing, .

About one o’cleck at night the boot-black tributed te shame and mortification at bis . of the House, in making bis customary confinement for desertion. He wasn young, .

Jars arod for the work. This is the only point on the route where aty heavy cutting will be required. The centractors bad employed their men, and were to commence work on Monday last. Yesterday, there was to have been a meeting of representa— tives of the Truckee and Henness Turnpike Companies, at Jackson's Ranch, to make arrangements for constructing the roads beyond that point. Deer Cavcnt.—The Nevada Democrat says that two deer were caught last week in the South Yuba Diteh, by one of the agents We learn that mere or less of these animals are caught in theditch about this time yearly when they are traveling. Iu crossing, they occasionally mistake the width of the ditch and fall in, and in consequence ofthe depth of water lbey are not able-to get out and are easily taken. “ Could you make me a bed in the palor?” asked the disconsolate looking individual. In the palor,?” echoed the clerk. “I’m afraid mot.” “Well, I'd like to have one spread down some’er.”’ “Why don't you ge inte your own room?’ asked the clerk. “ I don’t like to,” said the bashful young man. “What's the matter?” continued the clerk has your wife turned you ont. “No,” said be drawingly, but, you see I've never been married before, and I dont like much to go in, particular ina strange place. * Oh go right in” said the clerk smiling audibly ; she won’t think it wrong.

Practice.—The Chinese do nearly everything by the rule of con, traries, and they do not depart from this practice, even in the payment of physicians The medical adviser of a Chinese family is paid a certain amount as an annual salary to look after the health of the family. Whenever any member of the family is sick, the salary of the physicien ceases until the health of the person is restored. They thus make it for the diract interest of the physician to preserve the bealth of the patient instead of making it for bis immediate interest to prolong the sickness. thar. Come in, won't yer ?

Now let me alone; or I'll will go right back to oul’ Kentucky, and thar I’R stay, if that darned clerk don’t make mea bed in the pslor, or some’ers else I'll not stop very long. That I won't.” The oder from the room assured the clerk that sbe had indeed blow’d out the gas, s0, pushing open the door ; he stopped the flow raised a window, and returned to the hall to persuade the verdant husband to retire with bis wife. All ergument was fruitless, however, and be wascomplled to assign the simple individual to a seperate room for the night. Harp to ?eer.—A man named Martin of raised in tbe garden of Dr. Todd, of It weighed, when firet taken beet, Santa Rosa, . ed to pass over the road, has been collected . from the ground, with the top or flower on, } and was appended to the Report. This in-. eighty-four pounds, and without the top, . formation, however, has not yet been ‘properly digested and in its present state is of . no value to the general reader. ’ ; / EXTENSION OVER THR SIERRA. j The Nevada Democrat, in allading to this . road speaks as follows, with regard to its probable continuation over the Sierra } Nevada :— “We have good reason to believe that this read will form a portion of the great railway that must sooner or later unite the navigable waters of the Mississippi and the . Pacific ozean. The Henness Pass is one of . the most favorable for a railroad that has ' . . { ; been discovered on the Sierra Nevada range . ' and the road from Folsom will approach it . at such an angle with the base of the moun. tains that a heavy grade will not be required. When Nevada is reached ove-half of the altitude of the Pass, a little more than half . the distance from Folsom to the summit, bas been accomplished. Three millions of dollars will construct the road from Folsom j to Nevada, and experienced engineers who kpow the country well, are satisfied that three millions more will carry the road from Nevada to the summit of the Henness Pass. There is another advantage that this route) possesses over any other, From Sacramen_ to to Eureka South, a distance ef about one mile, the road would pass through the most thickly settled, the most prosperous, and most permanent mining section of the State. travel, of not less than seventy-five thousand inhabitants. Inno other part of the State can a road be built of one hundred miles in length, that would be the thoroughfare for so large # population.” g@ The population of New York city ing now estimate at 1,000,000, It would be the thoroughfare, for trade and . has doubled within the last fifteen years, beMary THe Littie Misstonary.—By the editor of Vanity Fair.— Mary's uncle Charles came to see her,and gave her a bright goid dollar, Then Mary eaid : “ Now I will buy some candy, and chewing gum, and@ pickled lime ; and I will give Sarah Jones . bors on the Northern frontier appear to be. ‘Wo cents.” But Mr. Sleek that good old . also in serious trouble with the Indians, . man beard her, and he groaned, and he said .

Ss «6 ALCO et a National E NEVADA NATIONAL. Engineer Elliott's Keport. The Nevada Journal, of last Friday contains the Report of Eagineer Elliott, of his preliminary survey of a railroad line from . Nevada to Anburn, made during the last . spring. After giving a particular description . of the line assurveyed Mr. Elliot proceeds . to say ~~ “ . would reccomend the adoption of the ma xXium grades on the Baltimere and Ohio . Railroad, which would reduce the actual leosta of the construction of the Road. If disirable, however, the grades may be re. duced by inefeasing the length of the Road. . Ido not deem it necessary to attempt to point out or en/imerate the advantages that . would arise from the construction of this ‘road. The line extends through one of the . most populous portions of the State—the land adjacentto it is rich in agricultore, lamber sod mineral wealth—in fact the . traaspurtation of quartz rock alone from . Nevada County to a convenient water power, which might be obtained at Folsom, . would be one single branch of the business . treated by the road in which thousands of . laborers, now idle, might be profitably em. ployed, for 1am informed by a gentieman engaged extensively in the quartz business, . atGrass Valley. that the only impediment toentire success, isthe heavy expense attecding the employment of steam power in crushing the rock, the lowest figure being aboat $15 per ten .If the road was construc. ted the rock could be transported and.crusb. ed by water power at a cost of about $5,00 . per ton. . Another branch of business that wonld be . created in the event of this roid being extended to the vicinity of the mountain lakes would be the ice trade; the whole supply . of the State would pass over the road. As to thisline ultimately becoming a part of the main trank of the Pacific Railroad I . can enly say that from information gathered . from Ditch Surveys that have been made in the vicinity of the head waters ot the Yubas I am ofopinion that favorable line can be found to connect with Lieut. Beckwith’s Survey, without tunnelling the Sierra Ne. vada, and connect with the same ata .point east of Mud Lake, . = / . rection on the bottles, This great snti-dixpeptie fs 1 j,, conclusion, gentlemon,T find it imposi. the result ot profound and elaborate studying of one ¢ of the most celebrated physicians of the present . able tostate accurately the cost 0 constructing this road. The probabic cost, however, . will not exceed $2.000,000. lum induced . to believe that the amount of business on the road when completed, will pay from 18 to 25 per cent on the investment. I deem it my duty here to acknowlege the . material aid rendered by Jobn Ostrom, Surveyer and Civil Frgineer of Nevada, who assisted me in the labors of the field. To Charles Marsh, Exq.

A Newly Married Pair in an Unpleasant Predicament. The Cincinnati Enquirer gives the particu: . lars of an unpleasant predicament in which a vewly married pair recently found themselves placed in that city. It appears that the conple had been united in the morning and started immediately on a bridal tour, bringing up at night at the Burnet House in Ser Meri_arion.—aA Soldier was recently . discharged from the guard house at Fort . Ludlow Washington Territory, where he had . been confined several months for desertion. to the rear of the house, where several soldiers were employed in cutting wood, and asked one of them to look at bis axe. Not anticipating any barm, be consented, when the first soldier deliberately placed bis own foot upon a fog, and severed one of bis toes. ‘ One of the soldiers then attempted to take a the axe from him, but was forced away by a Tt was qnite evident that the pair were blow aimed at bimself, when the discharged unfamiliar with metropolitan sights.—The soldier again placed bis foot upon the Ing, .

Yesterday, there was to have been a meeting of representa— tives of the Truckee and Henness Turnpike Companies, at Jackson's Ranch, to make arrangements for constructing the roads beyond that point. Deer Cavcnt.—The Nevada Democrat says that two deer were caught last week in the South Yuba Diteh, by one of the agents We learn that mere or less of these animals are caught in theditch about this time yearly when they are traveling. Iu crossing, they occasionally mistake the width of the ditch and fall in, and in consequence ofthe depth of water lbey are not able-to get out and are easily taken. “ Could you make me a bed in the palor?” asked the disconsolate looking individual. In the palor,?” echoed the clerk. “I’m afraid mot.” “Well, I'd like to have one spread down some’er.”’ “Why don't you ge inte your own room?’ asked the clerk. “ I don’t like to,” said the bashful young man. “What's the matter?” continued the clerk has your wife turned you ont. “No,” said be drawingly, but, you see I've never been married before, and I dont like much to go in, particular ina strange place. * Oh go right in” said the clerk smiling audibly ; she won’t think it wrong.

Practice.—The Chinese do nearly everything by the rule of con, traries, and they do not depart from this practice, even in the payment of physicians The medical adviser of a Chinese family is paid a certain amount as an annual salary to look after the health of the family. Whenever any member of the family is sick, the salary of the physicien ceases until the health of the person is restored. They thus make it for the diract interest of the physician to preserve the bealth of the patient instead of making it for bis immediate interest to prolong the sickness. thar. Come in, won't yer ?

All ergument was fruitless, however, and be wascomplled to assign the simple individual to a seperate room for the night. Harp to ?eer.—A man named Martin of raised in tbe garden of Dr. Todd, of It weighed, when firet taken beet, Santa Rosa, . ed to pass over the road, has been collected . from the ground, with the top or flower on, } and was appended to the Report. This in-. eighty-four pounds, and without the top, . formation, however, has not yet been ‘properly digested and in its present state is of . no value to the general reader. ’ ; / EXTENSION OVER THR SIERRA. j The Nevada Democrat, in allading to this . road speaks as follows, with regard to its probable continuation over the Sierra } Nevada :— “We have good reason to believe that this read will form a portion of the great railway that must sooner or later unite the navigable waters of the Mississippi and the . Pacific ozean. The Henness Pass is one of . the most favorable for a railroad that has ' . . { ; been discovered on the Sierra Nevada range . ' and the road from Folsom will approach it . at such an angle with the base of the moun. tains that a heavy grade will not be required. When Nevada is reached ove-half of the altitude of the Pass, a little more than half . the distance from Folsom to the summit, bas been accomplished. Three millions of dollars will construct the road from Folsom j to Nevada, and experienced engineers who kpow the country well, are satisfied that three millions more will carry the road from Nevada to the summit of the Henness Pass. There is another advantage that this route) possesses over any other, From Sacramen_ to to Eureka South, a distance ef about one mile, the road would pass through the most thickly settled, the most prosperous, and most permanent mining section of the State. travel, of not less than seventy-five thousand inhabitants. Inno other part of the State can a road be built of one hundred miles in length, that would be the thoroughfare for so large # population.” g@ The population of New York city ing now estimate at 1,000,000, It would be the thoroughfare, for trade and . has doubled within the last fifteen years, beMary THe Littie Misstonary.—By the editor of Vanity Fair.— Mary's uncle Charles came to see her,and gave her a bright goid dollar, Then Mary eaid : “ Now I will buy some candy, and chewing gum, and@ pickled lime ; and I will give Sarah Jones . bors on the Northern frontier appear to be. ‘Wo cents.” But Mr. Sleek that good old . also in serious trouble with the Indians, . man beard her, and he groaned, and he said .
