Road the following report of Mr. Wil
son, whicit no tako fiom tho S'.andaid of
last Thur .day. It contains the very latest
mwt.
We are indebted to the very obliging Express
lloune of Wells, 1'urgo Co., for the fulluwing
full rep ut of their liii'iMeliKer, who reached this
city 011 Tuesday lust, 4 o'clock r. u., from Fort
Clvillet
Arrived at Foil Colviile en ll.o lSth July, aud
was informed by tin.' wtlleri that there were no mi
ners at work in the mines in cotwpienco of the high
stuge of water ; ulso met wilh two Americans in
the valley who hu vo been wailinjr several weeks
fur a full of the river. There had been four per
s.. ns up to the J'end Oreille a few duys beforo aud
foun l water over ull the ban, uud not being ublo
to pro-peel had lo retain. The universal ppiu'on
of the settlers in tlio o.nploy of the Hudson's iiuy
Co. is, Ihut but I'llle if anything can be done ul
mining until the Iht of September. On the 19th,
ufu r obliiiuing all lliu infur.uulion I cuul 1 at tlio
Fort, I parked inv uniiiiuU lo go to the mines, dis
luut 3U niiKs! Bui was informed by Mr. Shuttle-
worth, the gi ntii muii in charge of the Foil iu the
abjeliee of Mr. McDonald, that I'ierre J.-Mino,
the chief of Ilia Keltic Falls ludiuim, objeeU
ed to my going. I immediately had an iuterview
with li tm through Mr. Currlster, the interpreter ut
the Fort, lo obtain his consent. He said he d.d
not w.inl (he Americano to come into his country
until a treaty is made with Tie Aincrieun govern
ment ; that ull his people were op;Hwed to it. I us
surcd him lh.it I did tiol c une into li s country to
mine that I was only traveling through lo see it,
un.l that I had heard of the mines and hud a cari
osity lo see III. in. Ho u.uikd to know if llu ro
w.re any more Anicriruus coming; I told him no.
lie tail he hud been informed Ihut there were a
great many on tho way. I told him it was not so
lie flnully coii'cnled tn my g dug. I then gut
ready to leave. In Iho meantime Gregora, 1st
cli'el', uud I.ni.lre, 2nd chief of tho Luko Indians
iu llie llriiUh p isett-ion,cimie to tho Fort. Pierre
Jerome then had a talk with tlieai, and told me
Ihut I eould nol gaaicy furl her that some lime in
August ull the tribes would hold a big talk and
would then determine what coitn-e to pursue to
il urds tho Americans that all the Indians wtro
opp is.d to Amor cans coming until the treiity was
made w tli lliem that ho liked the Ainerinuus,
but if I pornUtod in going to llu mines he would
not be rcviiouslble fir whut his pe-iple might do
that Iheymid they would prevent me by foric.
A fler coiisultntiou with Meairs. S. and C. they ad
vised me nol to att.-nipt it in n.pnsilioii loth ir witln
un I that I eould no; obtain any ful lliei-iiif irination
by going, a 1 it was impossible to prospect conse
quently I abandoned the Hip.
7'irre i t;nlil, nnd probably good mining, but
tho country has nut been thoroughly prospected,
the miuln.t having been ennfmed to two bars, one
on the North uud the oiheron the South side of iho
river. The g i'd llius fur obtained ij fiat gold, uud
has pa d fro:a 0110 lo twenty .five dollars per duy to
llie man. Il is the opinion of some of the eetllers
in Coiillle valley, that I 1 unversed wilh, that if tlio
coiiiiirj wustlioroiihiy pro peeted the minis would
prove 1 rich as any over worked in California; but
of llie correctness nf this oj-iniou it was impossible
for 1110 lo judge. The f illers think the Indians
will not dare nllempt to prevent the Americans
king the mines, trrrtij ur no treaty.
This much I do know from personal observation
that all the Irilies of Indians from Fort Walla-Walla
to Colviile, and tho Lukei iu the J'ritish posses-
s 011s ure strongly opposed to the Americans work
ing the mines. As to going to the mines, I have
no advice to give. Every person must exercise his
own judgment iu tlio matter.
For the information of those intending to go'I
wilrgire the distances on the roule lo Wulla-wulla.
From the Dalles, by wagon roud, which I advise
all to travel, is ISO miles ; to Tacct river 23 miles;
lo Snake river (ferry) 25 miles ; Felloose, 15 miles;
Dig Lake, 40 miles ; (between Pellousc and Dig
Lake water may be found at 10, 15, nnd 1 5 miles ;)
Ilock creek, 13 miles; Willow creek, 12 miles i
Spokan river, 30 miles ; Colviile valley, 30 miles ;
Fort Colviile, 30 miles ; Tend Oreille river mines,
30 miles.
I have also received from Mr. A. J. Dolon, In
dian Agent, W. T., particulars of another route
which he assures me, and which I also think, will
shorten the travel from 75 to 100 miles. Cross the
Columbia at the Dalles ; bear N N. E. on trail
East, foot of Clikatat, to Suiters, 15 miles ; down
Sii!!cre4 miles, b aring northerly, striking Yakima
at Pisco, C miles; up the Yakima 8 miles, cross
and strike llie Columbia, 25 miles ; cross Columbia
trail bearing N. N. E., strikiug the French n tlle
men s ut Brown's iu Colviile valley, thr.e day's
travel with puck animals.

From the Corvullis Stulesm.iu.
UPON the whole he is a ureal liar, und just
such u currcsiioiident ns Adums deliglus in
fur hu cannot get any others. Poor Adams ! he is
uu uufurluiiato being. He must huve been bom
011 the change uf the moon, (which is a rare occur
renco) and ever since bus been changing. Not
withstanding yll that, ho will fullil the object of
his master, lor in early lite he set out to seive the
devil, uu I hits been one of his most ullicious ili-oi
pies, thereby hoping to secure 11 fuvoruhlc scut in
hell w here he cm we tloso Ihut were fools cn-nigh
to be led uslruy by his vile, bluck-licurtcd duphu.ty
und base, hypocrisy. The devil and him will so-111
have a tremendous fuss, tor us Ktsai us Adams ur
rives at the place of his destination he will ulteuipl
to set up the Argus aud start u knuwiiolli ng wig
wain, to procure ineuiis lo jiaichase water (mil
biulldv) to cool his parched Ion ;uo wilh. ), you
fool ! lu Hint country tin y do not use either spir
ituous liqu trs or w.atcr, und il is Ihe only country
I loive read of where the prohibitory law is fully
eul'orc.d. Therefore you huve no nunc u-c lot
Ihe Argus there than we huve for you here, tot il
is a fixed fuel Ihe only occupa.ion ton ,ue til lor
is to d g cumas and pull fern ; uinl y n might j.isl
us well quit the Aliens now, uu I c iiii.iiciice at Or
egon (My. Never 111 nd ull thut : you will not be
ul your father's long before you will look like a ne-
iro hahy hiked in an ocen all ihe time grinning.
1 es, you will grin as much, and keep ut it loo, us
you did w hen you heard Giiiu -s sp uk ut Oregon
Cily, uud you will b-.; just us much deceived us
when you predicted Gaines would beut Lunc. 2500
votes. But Lane beat Gaines over 20IIII votes;
therefore you only was deceived iu 45IJ0 votes,
undevory vole you may estimutu ns one year ; und
when you have been with your father, the d vil,
iu his mansion 4500 years, your lime of service is
scarcely commenced. Had you not best lo bawl,
O, Lord, O, Lord ! ! Is there no redemption for
poor Adams? How much longer do you expect
you can deceive christians as a (political) theolog
ical wolf and black-hearted hypoe .'rite ill the garb
of a Campbell te preacher? Nol one duy, if jus
lice overtakes you! Huve you long since sinned
away your day of grace ? If so, acknowledge it,
like uu honest man, and no longer attempt to do
ccive the public by pretending to publish a tuuiiie
ratice paper ; lor every one thut bus reud il knows
that il is the most worthless political puper ever
published ill Oregon, and is entirely devoted lo Ihe
supporting of all the old broken dnwu political
ha- ks and gamblers, like your.'clf, and no others
escape being defamed und slandered by you.
Thank God your tongue and paper cannot slander
any body where you ure known !
Friends uf religion, temperance and snlTei in;,' hu
manity, do you acknowledge the Argus lo bo the
1 true exponent of your principles ? If so, no won
der there is no reformation in your churches ; and
you may rest assured there nevor will be while you
kip such men at the head of iho church to man
ago atla rs. If you w ish a reionuuliOii to tuke
place, expel all such base hypocrites that have
been hung ng lo tho churches liko so many leech s,
sucking all the blood, then God w ill answer your
prayers, aud nol before. Will yon contribute your
