The MarysviHe (Cal.) Appeal of the 11th inst. has the following: A jiarty, consisting of four fam ilies, and numbering abont 30 per sons, old and young, arrived here a few days ago from North Car olina, en route to Oregon. This party started from their old homes in North Carolina with a view of settling in Kansas, but on reaching that State were not pleased with the country and pushed on toward Oregon. They stopped over one day here for the purpose of looking about, but meeting no flattering offers in so short a time they re solved to push on to the Webfoot country. The Boise City Statesman speaks thus of rabbits in that vicinity: "These long eared birds are said to be very thick on the other side of Boise river. They live and breed in the sagebrush, forage on the grain fields, and come down to tbe river in the middle ot the day for water. It affords a nice opportu nity to kill them. Mr. Frost, eighteen miles below here, says the rabbits have destroyed fifteen acres of grain for him, and many others make similar complaints. Mr. W. I., lhurman says his little boys killed 1,000 last week, and they don't think it much of a killine after all, tor the rabbits seem to be about as plenty as ever. Two boys will shoot from 175 to 200 a day. When they get tired of shooting they lay down tlieir guns and go to pelting than to death with stones as tliey pass by for water This is a pretty good rabbit story, but a true one." A correspondent of the Bed Rock Democrat says: On June 29th Union and vicinity was visited by the Iieaviest rain and hail storm ever known in this vallev. It com menced at 2 o'clock and in less than 30 minutes the whole face of the country was a lake ot water. A water-spout burst on the hills directly north of the farms ot Mrs. Cates and Mrs. D. ii. Benson, and about two miles east of Union, and the whole face of the hill was one grand roaring cataract from summit to base, the water in some of the gulehes being six feet deep; washing hundreds ot tons ot stone down into the road and fields below, many of which would weigh from 300 to 500 pounds, and two or three have been estimated at 1,000 to 1,500 pounds. It ruiued Mr. Benson's garden and uprooted some of his apple trees; washed down and carried away nearly a half mile offence on the Lawrence ranch, and ruined what grain chanced to be in its way. The hail stones were not large, but in some places they fell very thick, and where they were washed in drifts they may be found to tbe depth of six inches.
