it will take him two or three weeks to
finish his work up to Evans creek.
One or two China gangs ore work
ing at Woodville and south as tar as
the upper part of Fred Birdseye's
place. This portion of the work being
light it will be completed very rapidly.
China herder Dunn, who has a force
here finishing up the work, says he
has orders to put in a switch at Wood
yille. The master of a depot at Wood
ville, however, is not yot settled.
Tho paymaster was here Tuesday,

A Yreka "Journal" correspondent
sends that paper the following infor
ma ion in regard to the progress of the
lailroad work south of us: The rail
road track is laid as far up us Camp
Bradley, 13 miles from Redding, and
trains discharge freight at that place.
Six mi'es more of grading i now
under way, which includes tunnel No.
1, with 100 feet of hard rock to
cut, towanls seeing daylight through
it. The blasters are at work between
Squaw Creek and Back bone Creek,
nnd have the holes ready for a distance
of two and a half miles along the
grade. There are several tons of pow
der now stacked up in the vicinity, to
charge these holes, and to be exploded
some day next wiek. One can
imagine what a cannonade of the
heaviest artillrry would sound like at
a distance of 16 miles, when the heavy
blasts are put off, and the Sacramento
river runs thick with mud for sev
eral days afterward, from the thou
sands of tons of debris thrown into it.
The Irsck will be from 5 to 15 feet
above high water mark all along the
river. The right of way men are at

County Treasurer, Jackson, who

Wednesday night, got out on tho road
at a turn, beyohJ 'where'Tthe driver
threw out the wooden express bos,
and loading his rifle, laid' in wait for'
tho highwayman to pick up the box.
The robber failed to como after it,
evidently thinking it contained noth
ing, since an iron box was locked to
the stage, which he did not venture to
take, being alone. Jackson told
McConnell, the stage driver, to go on
and not wait for him, and Jackson
watched for the highwayman until
She-iff Hopping and Df uty Johnnie
Reynolds arrived. The box was picked
uji and brought back, and 'the robber
got away as fast as possible, evidently
observing the stopping of the stage al
a distance from the box, "to be for
something not agreeable to him.
