LETTER FROM THE iVEST.
My old Friend Lewis: Thinking a
few lines from one of your old subscri
bers might be read with some interest
I have agreed to pen you a few items
on a trip from Sacramento, Cal , to
Salt Lake City.
I left Sacramento by yesterday
morning's (Tuesday, May 4) train on
the C. P. R: .R , and could I hope to
give you even a faint idea of the loci ;
dents, experiences and sensations, the
changes in climate and scenery from
tropical heat and luxuriant vegetation
to perpetual snow and the struggle for
existence on the part of the
_stunted
shrubs along its borders, of the eight
hours' trip which separates the two
points named, I would attempt a de
scription. But as I despair of success
in that lino I will simply advise each
and all of your readers who can do so
to take a trip and see for themselves, ,
fully assured that if they take the ad•
vice they will never regret it. For
pleasant scenery, contrasts from sum
mer to winter, green hills and snowy
wastes, absence of dust, &e., the pre
sent month and Tune will bo the best
time for the trip.
Five passenger cars fully loaded, ev
ery seat occupied and ninny standing,
left Sacramento. At the Junction the
rear car designed for Marysville was
taken off, and the other four were still
more crowded. What a contrast to
the travel over this same road two
years ago, when two old mud wagon
coaches could haul all the passengers
drawn by four old mustang horses.—
"This would, a short time ago," said a
fellow passenger, "have been corsid•
ered a very reepeetlq)lii exeurßion
train." It is not all for White Pine
either, as some might think asi the
train leaves the depot. The increased
and increasing way travel is an indi
cation of the growth of the country
and the prosperity of the road. Hero
and there we dropped passengers.—
Many are destined for Virginia City,
some for Elko, some for tho front and
Salt Luke, and a few hound to the
Eastern States. If the stream of tra
vel is thus large all eady, what will it
he when the continental' railroad is in
full working order. The Itailtoad Co.
is making every effort to accommo
date the flood.
The morning was beautiful . and cv•
erything looked charming. At Rock
lin. the 0. P. R. R. Co. have a round
house 'built of granite almost as white
as marble, which can accommodate
fifty engines; it is a very handsome
building. On we go up the grade.—
At Ada the grade is 116 feet to the
mile; dui scenery is grand all the way
to the summit. Along the head of
Bear river and of the Yuba, one catch
es glimpses of pretty little valleys' nd
peeks as well as of rocky peaks—Cas
tle Dome, a prominent landmark for
many miles, and Donner peak, looming
up 8,500 feet above the level of the sea.'
Emigrant Gap at the bead of Bear Ri
ver, is the point where emigrants used
to let their wagons down the moun
tain side by putting ropes around the
trees. What a change! We now fly
past at thirty miles an hour.
There are now about twenty miles
of shedding constructed and all in the
most thorough and substantial manner.
About six miles more is all that
be required to be built, which will then
extend the works over the entire snow
line a distance of some forty miles.
BLAKE A McNSIL
Fifteen in number, aro a feature of
the higher portion of the road. At
the summit the change from up to
down grade is at once perceptible. It
makes a fellow feel a little weak in the
knees when he peers out and looks
down the mountain so far that ho has
to look twice or three times before he
can see half way down. And if the
car should ever get off the track, I
can't see anything that would stop it
short of five miles, and then be would
pull up in Donner Lake. You can
just bet high that a young man has to
keep
,F t very stiff Upper lip. When he
comes off this road he thinks of the
past, present and future all in two and
a half seconds, by, the watch.
Snow is disappearing fast, although
continually in view from the train, in
some places. In deep canyons it may
be fifteen or twenty feet deep yet, as
in the winter months it all blows off
the high mountains and fills up every
place level. The next place atter get
ting off the mountains is a town called
Truckee, the liveliest town that I have
struck. A population of four
,or five
thousand is claimed for it, and the fig
, urea, judging from appearances, is a
moderate one. It is at this point the
small freight trains brought over the
heavy grades are coupled on to others
and taken in tow by the engines allOt•
tad for service on the plains, and load
ed plains going west are cut up into
Milan trains for the steep grades. At
Ulm pike there are some forty. stiNv
Mills, many of which are now idle, ow

ing for the present supplied, but they
are looking forward to the commence
ment of the Oregon railroad for a re
vival of this branch of trade. But the
citizens never seem down in the mouth
about anything; they most all play
poker and buck at faro, hunt and fish.
They never arrest a man for it is so
far to take him to the county jail, and
if they ever start with a man the chan
ces are he will get away in taking a
trip 'of 150 miles.
Left Truckee yesterday afternoon,
and on our way ,down the river•the
train came very near running into a
huge log, three feet in diameter and
fifty feet long, that was rolled down
the hill by some lumbermen, and plung•
ed between two ties. It made things
very merry for a short time. Your
humble servant got on the platform,
shut his eyes and lot himself down an
embankment of 40 feet, rolled over
and over like a good size bear; when I
got down I felt as loose as a gummy
sack half full of broken bones; couldn't
speak for ten minutes, my oyes were
bulged out of my head like a toad's,
after a wagon had run over it. But
am all right again, and am going down
the river. We follow,. closely the
banks of the Truckee, crossing' and re
crossing it until_ we cross it once more
and then each follows it own course.
Some of the scenery after leaving
Truckee city is pleasant. At Virdi
we catch the last glimpse of the wood
ed hillsides, and nothing in the form
of a tree greets you again until Inde
pendence Springs are reached, a dis
tance of over three. hundred miles--
and here the nearest approach to it is
a scrub cedar, which grows here and
therein clumps and attains a bight of
fifteen feet or so. From Verdi to Pro=
tnontory Mountain, a distance of 541
miles, is a waste, thoroughly treeless
as the imagination can picture. Thro'
all this region - sago brush is king of
the vegetable kingdom.
Reno, Wadsworth, Winnemucca,
Carlin and Elko, are all well built
towns. The former is the liveliest
place on the road by odds; everybody
stops hole for White Pine Silver coun
try. On arriving at Elko I took a
trip to the Silvered°. On leaving El
ko you have a choice of four different
lines, all six horse coaches; they will
trot a man out for five dollars. The
mines look well as far as can be seen,
hit as a general thing they have not
been opened enough to prove them as
good as the outsiders represent. By
the way I bad the pleasure otmecting
your old Stone Creek friend J. Curry
Foster, who is one of the leading law
yers of the diStrict. a - •• " '
Nothing of note happened, but 1
came back to Elko and started on my
railroad trip once more. Wo travel
along the route, and finally we pass in
sight of Butte Mountain, where some
years since the Nevada troops had a
conflict with the Indians, and also of
Gravel Ford, now marked but by a
solitary building, noted for its massa
cres by the Indians not longer ago
than two years. These affairs are of
the past. The railroad has broken
the back of Indiundom.
We followed Humboldt lake and
river for nearly two - hundred miles.—
The river is a dull, sluggish stream;
its very look is - brackish and alkaline,
and it is fearfully . and ' wonderfully
crooked. Ducks abound along its
bunks, and you'can'see steam from hot
springs visible at several points. At
Twelve Mile Canyon the scenery be
comes interesting, and the palisades of
the' Humboldt 'towering perpendicu
larly for hundreds of feet, are equal in
grandeur to those of the Gesemite falls

MATRIMONIAL LOTTERY.-A short
time since at:a wedding in South Car
°Hutt, a young lawyer moved that one
titan in the company should be select
ed as president, that this president
should be duly sworn to keep entirely
secret all the communications that
should be forwarded to him in his offi
cial department that night, that each
unmarried gentleman and lady should'
write his or her name on a piece of
paper, and under it place the name of
the person they wished to marry, then,
hand it to the president for inspection,
and if any gentleman and lady had re.
ciprocally chosen each other the pres
ident was to inform each of the result,
and those who had not been reciprocal
in their choice were to be kept entire
ly secret. After the appointment of
the president, communications were
accordingly handed up to the chair,
and it was found that twelve young
ladies and gentlemen had reciprocal
choices, and eleven of the twelve
matches were solemnized.

bootblack persuasion, while dancing

The Indian Policy of the Mminia-
DEAR SlR:—Will you please .find
room in the Globe, for the following,
taken from the Helena Herald, pub
lished at Helena, Montana Territory?
Major Cullen, the writer, was Superin
tendent of Indiana affairs for Minne
sota, during the administration of Mr.
Buchanan, and was subsequently ap
pointed to an Indian agency by Presi
dent Johnson, which position ho will
continue to bold until released by a
General of the Army appointed for
that purpose._ Anything in regard to
Indian affairs from the pen, of the
Major cannot fail to be interesting to
his old friends in Ituntingdon and
Mifflin counties.
We gladly pUblish to-day the follow":
ing communication from Major W. J.
Cullen, upon the subject of the Indian
policy of the present administration.
The Major is well qualified, from his
years and experience, to pass upon
this matter, and it Is gratifying to see
that he entertains and expresses such
fair and liberal views in that regard.
It is well known that the Major was
an applicant for the Indian Superin
tendency of Montana and Idaho, and
that ho was supported by yery,power
tut influence; and it is also well known
that be encountered the opposition of
the Herald on political grounds. In
view of all these circumstances, and
his personal disappointment resulting
from the sweeping change in the In
dian policy of the Administration, the
high-minded tone of the Major's letter,
subjoined, and the moderate, liberal
spirit of the same aro matters worthy
of all praise:
HELENA, M. T., May 29, 1869.
To the Editors of the Herald
your issue of this date I find an arti
cle giving the outlines of the Indian
policy of thepresent Administration,
regarding which 1 desire to offer my
own views, being probably as familiar
with the subject in question as any
other in Montana. While personally
perhaps the 'radical changes' noted
have resulted in disappointment to my
self, yet I must candidly confess thatl
believe the policy to be a good and
wise one, for the following reasons :
Ist. In point of economy, it will save
the Government one hundred and
twenty-five thousand dollars per an
hum in salaries.
2d. The Indian Department seems
to have become so obnoxious to-Con
gress that it is almost impossible to
get the -necessary appropriations to
carry out, in good faith '
the treaty
stipulations existing with the various
Indian tribes.' The War Department,
whether deservedly so or not, is more
popular, and little difficulty upon this
score is to be apprehended.
3d Army, officers bein g appointed
for life, or during good behavior, and
desiring promotion, have greater in 7
centives to deal fairly, andleSsinduce;
ment to defraud either the Govern
ment or the Indians. than have civil
officers. 'Again, should the military
officer be guilty of any offence ofthat
chtiracter, the punishment would be
speedier and more certain, as he would
be dealt•with by a court-martial.
Then officers of course are in. the
same category with other political offi
cers, and, as the matter now stands, it '
is of no moment how;well qualified for
the position a man may be; how thor
ough his knowledge of Indian chant°•
ter, which can ' only be acquired by
years of toil and Andy; it matters lit
tle how honedt, and Upright ho may
be; how eXtended - and varied his px
perien'co; yet with change of adminis
tration comes a change of officer, and
a man now to the work is,put in charge
of the Indians. Ills office is a reward,
and merely a reward, for political ser-.
vices rendered some party, or perhaps
individual politician. With his inex
perience, and often indifference, is•it
any wonder that the Indian war—
costing the Government millions of
money, to say, nothing of the lives of
citizens and soldiers — is the result of
these injudicious changes? Military
officers, having once been conversant
with it, may be continued in this
branch of the service for years, and
should any difficulty arise, they would
be at the source,understand thelrouble,
and it would be readily quelled.
When an outbreak .occurs now,
there is so much redtape to go through
with that it is weeks before the mili
tary can be brought into the field, or
afford the least protection to the lives
or property of our citizens. -
With military officers in charge.the:
traffic in whisky may be suppressed,
and the enforcement of the trade and
intercourse laws becomes Practicable.
Bad man—that vicious and depraved
class, so generally to be'found loiter
ing in and around Indian reservations
—may bo excluded, and thus relieve
the Indians of the curse at least of that
class of parasites.
In conclusion, then, lot me say that
I most earnestly and heartily endorse
this.policy. And if the officers who
shall be put in charge R€ the various
tribes employ, in the various capaci
ties of farmer, school teacher, black
smith, carpenter, etc., •liOnest, capable
Men—men of familyi; who will take
their wives into ,the Indian country—
I shall expect tq see it productive of
much good, both to the citizen and to
the Indian.

vant, • . W. J. CULLEN.
