The fleet of merchantmen is said to be the largest that ever floated in the lwy of San Francisco. A glance at tho official register shows that the ships mainly come from filasgow, Dundee.

The line as now projected along Claik's Fork will cross the river three times and will pass through a rough, rockj country and will be exceedingly ex pensive.
