Thb White Bluffs Route. James
A. Odell, Esq., returned last evening
from White Bluffe and Pen d'Oreillo
Lake. lie oppresses himself as much
. pleased, with the conntry over which
l ho passed, and is deoidedly of the
.opinion that that is tbe routo to Black
. foot. lie was ap to and took a trip
, of some 30 or 40 miles on the Take.
The now steamer will soon be ready
to' run, and tbe lake is navigablo for a
- groater distance than was at first sup-
' posed, shortening the land travel from
the Bluffs to-tbe lake considerably.
Tbe road to the lako is a good wagon
road, not over 130 miles long, with
.' plenty of wood, wator and grass all
,the way. I
' Mr. Z. F. Moody and others came
down with Mr. Odell. They mot Mr
; Snipes with, hie cattle and teams on
the Spokane, a'nd many others who
started from the Dalles overland
Tbey were- all getting along finely,
- and Bond work back to every body to
' come this-way.
To any parties intending to go to
, White Blulfs overland, we desire to
say that wo are reliably informed that
tbo canyon trail in now open and is
ranch better than crossing the moan
tain f, though, persons contemplating
akincV 'loaded teams with them should
.VgVby way of Fort Simcoe. : A good

A New "Cheeky" Route. Thoro
is a class of peoplo who mannjro to
always have profitable employment by
shifting around from ono place to
another, -and impressing folks with
the idea that they are possessed of
some particular kind of knowledge or
peculiar talent of which, if the good
people of that locality would only
avail thcm8elves,they would be greatly
boncfited thereby. Road-building and
palbifinding, knowledge of this upper
conntry, and a desire to benefit the
public, appear to be the forte of Cupt.
John Mullan.
The correspondent of tho Bulletin
writing ,from New York under date of
March iid, says that Cup. John Mullan
has organized a company in that city
for the, building of a good wagon road
from bacramento, or the end of rail
road transit, via Chioo, to Ruby and
Boise cities, ot which he is himself
president. The length of this pro
jected road is put down at ridiculously
low figures. By way of recommend,
ing Captain John, the totter concludes
by telling us that it was the gallant
Captain who built the Government
road to Fort Benton, over which all
the travel to Blackfoot is now going.
We are well aware tkat the Captain
expended a large amount of Govern
ment money on such a road, but we
have not yet learned of that road
being much traveled, owing to its im
practicability in winter and spring
months. We hope tbe new enterprise
wilt be better cared for, or it will
never rise to the dignity of a respect"
able trail.

region of Boutbieastern Oregon, where
the emigrants of 1847 were lost, is in

lato discoveries in that region have
stimulated this movement. Tbo pes'
liforous Snakes have hitherto prevent

More Gold Mines. It appears tbo
Vancouver folks aint going to "give

Herald contains thefollowing :
The citizens of Vancouver have
again been aroused by fresh reports
coming in from the mines, tbe last of
which is,, that good prospects nave
boen struck in a gulch below where
tbe quartz lodge crosses. We were
shown a prospect taken from one pan
of dirt which we tbinli would weign
about six cents, and looked as though
it had beon washed but vory utile.
We are promised a full report of the
discovery io a few days. It is also
rumored that placer diggings have
boen found within, forty miles fvom
this city, which promise well.
Sosn weeks ago we mentioned the
discovery of a copper ledgo seventy
fuet in width,. situated about twenty-
five mitos east of wand .Hondo valley
