Tho Portland News of Nov. 8tb, says: The Legislature, in September, 1872, provided by law for the survey and location of a wagon road from Sandy to The Dalles, making a part o f it a portage wagon road, with suit­ able landings at the Cascades, and at the same time provided for harmon­ izing the construction of tho wagon road and railroad, both of which the North Pacific and O. S. N. Company oppose as opening the Columbia River to competition. It seems that ■while the attention of the O. S. N. Company has for the last year been .directed to tho movements of the Portland, Dalles and Salt Lake Rail­ road Company, Col. Chapman, the President of;the latter company, bus been quietly securing the proper lo­ cation of the Sandy road to suit the railroad; and the first thing that the public learns of his plan is, that the Sandy road lias become a county road, and Col. Chapman has return­ ed from Wasco County Court, with an order under seal of Court, grant­ ing to the Portland, Dalles and Salt Lake Railroad Company the right of way upon the Portage Sandy Road, obviating the necessity of suits be- tweeu the P.

The Sacramento Union s&ys: “ It has been remarked by a large por­ tion o f the Eastern press, aa well as that of the Pacific Coast, whick has taken a just view of the wheat pro ducts of the world, that the United States is the only country which.can be depended upon to snppiy the great lack of that indispensable ar­ ticle. All statistical information points to tbe same result, aDd it is this great element aud its plentiful­ ness iu the United States that will sustain this country in the coming contest for recovering the balance of trade from the commercial marts of Europe. The New York Ledger re­ fers to statistics on the general sub­ ject, and the returns of the imports to Great Britain to Sept. 30th, 1873, show that the gross value of the im­ ports of wheat for nine months is about $99,000,000, of which the Uni­ ted States supplied $42.000,000 worth The proportion of wheat received from Russia has fallen from 13,000,- 000 to 7,000,000 hundred weights as compared with 1872, while that re­ ceived from the United States in­ creased from 5,000,0u0 to 13,000,000 hundred weights. Wheat is usually exported from the north of France, but this year it will have to be im ­ ported. and the importations of the south of France will be largely in­ creased. Germauy, Hungary aud Southern Russia are also deficient in their crops, and that European deal­ ers have accepted the returns as thoroughly reliable may be judged from the fact that their exports from New York alone during the fourteen days ending Oct. 9th were 3,508,469 Rock Creek, about two and a half m iles below the point where McCoy * Company’s W ater Ditch com m ences, running thence about five m iles to Hope Gulch, and is known as Swinnerton & Company’s Ditch.
