following letter from Daniel B, Christ, a
California emigrant. It contains an inter
esting account of his journey across the
tnountains and of that portion of California,
'where he now'resides.
C2l
OREGON, CANNON, Jan. 10, 1850.
According to promise I novv propose giv
ing you a brief sketch of our suffering C,nd
hardships; during the long journey to this
jVie ieft Independence, April 26, 1819,
and reached the first diggings in California,
on the Ist of September, being four months
Una %lir days. Our sufferings caused by
heavy hail storms, cold weather, want of ftiel
and water, during the first portion of the
journey, were greatly increased in the lat
ter portion by heat, 'dust,. fatigue and the
hetessity standing guard one half the
We 'traveled from 18 to 25 miles per day
hnd as'soon ns camp was formed, every man
4.vould engage in something, pitching tents,
gathering fuel or gross ; this done, all hands
'except a few who did the cooking, were tall
ied on to guard the_animals, wagons, provis-
ions ~&c. In the morning at 3 o'clock, all
Would be 'tip and busy in greasing and re . -
pairing the wagons, or fixing their feet so as
to be abl.e to travel another day.
In crossing the different deserts'it almost
cost. my life—the suffering fur want of ‘va
ker MIS greater than I can describe. El un-
Ureds of my fellow travelers suffered the
'same and even more; my nearest frieod C.
S. Coda'', (of Liewell,7,ll,) would not have
got through if some had not gone ahead with
horses to get water for those who were per
ishing. i offered mute trie.n 442 for a swallow
of water. but he refined it. On'reaching
Crason tiver,l walked into the stream up
to my middle arid - di:7lM horse fashion ; in
'about ten Minutes, haying slaked my thirst,
went to shore, laid Myself tinder a tree and
fell asleep. Here I remained perhaps an
hour and a half, when a portion of our coin
iany came ap with the cattle, baring left
the Wagons 9 miles back ' , on the dest-rt.---
tiere We remained during flieltflortiocat and
'night, and about 8 o'clock the nest morning
-Stalled back to fetch the wagons and :3 men
xvho had been left to guard them ; to these
men water had been sent during the night
by persons on horseback. Having got all
through except one ox, which , dl'.ed for want
of water, we stopped 3 days on Crason riv
er, to recruit both men and cattle. On the
balance of the route we found a supply of
water. This desert from the sink of flum
boldt river to Crason river, is 50 miles, but
_we_ had to take our water 20 miles above the
sink, whiqi made a distance of 70 miles,
.and as our canteens would hold but:l quarts
it was not - a sufficient quantity for half the
)distance, so great was the heat and dust.
When I left Independence, I had a very
-good horse, but after traveling front 4 to
ZOO miles, running him after Bullidoes, and
at one time being chased by five Sioux In
dians, all on horseback, who followed use
closely for two miles, at the top of my hor
ses' speed, he gave out, and I was compel
led to travel the balance of the rout, about
1.100 miles, on foot, when my re7.l starer
ings commenced. Imagine me with my feet
blistered. toe nails turned black. and some
times travelling bare-footed until may feet
bled profusely, and you hare some idea of
coy condition—yet ninny sulkier' Vastly ,
more, even to death itself. From my own
kno*ledgc and information received of oth
ers, I have no-dolibt that not less than from
2000 to 3000 souls left their bodies on this
horrible overland route, and! would advise
all *who are determined to visit California, to
choose any other in preference.
Strewed along this route too, are many
hundreds of wagons which have been abroh
cloned, with immense quantities of provis
ions, harness, chains, powder, lead, rifles,
and articles of every description, The m e s s
I belonged to got through with their ti net,
hat bad to part with every thing except bare
sufficient provisions to sustain the party.
:Aly friend C. S, Cockill, was less fortunate,
this mess first broke up, then the Indians
: stole some of his animals, and he was com
pelled to abandon his wagon; yet with nll
alis privations and sufli..ring he bore tip most
manfully.
Such a moving mass of men and beasts,
as theso California emigrants presented, has
pot been seen since the days of Moses. •
As 1 am now in the midst of gold ilia
gings, I will endeavor to give you an ac,
count of this wonderful country as far as my
limited knowledge will permit. In the first
place I must say that Gold is folly as plen
ty as it has been represented it) the public
prints, if not more so. Since I Came here,
have.seen thousands of dollars that was
Aug in one day within half a mile of me.—
The largest amount that 1 have seen ta
ken out in one'day by four men, wits a little
over nine pounds, or itil,S34: The largest
piece of Gold I have seen was worth about
6332. Lrirger piece: have been obtained,
one of which I was told was worth over
33700, yet it is by no means all who come
here that Make fortunes. Many become dis
couraged and go• home, cursing the country
..—others leave on account of bad health, and
others more determined work On until they
sacrifice their lives.
Those who have a desire to visit this land
of Gold, will do well to first try our mode of
living for a few weeks ; our provision is rus
ty fat pork and slapjacks, the latter n cake
made of flour and water, and baked either
in a pan or in the ashes. But when we get
out of flour, Acorns roasted in the fire, are
used as a substiltne. fu addition to this let
them go daily into some stream, and labor
hard, standing up to their ankles in mud
and water; on Sunday travel on loot a dis
tance of 12 miles for a new supply of this
choice provision ; return wearied out, ,7601;
supper, lay down under a tree. wrapped
carefully in a blanket to prevent taking, cold
and thus pass the night in dreaming of large
Mmps of Gold. Let them try this arid it
will afford some idea of life in California.
A number of those who canu> out thia
sen
aon have already made their fortune: and rc
;urned home, no doubt to give a flattering
account of the country, while another por
tion penniless and disheartened are strug
gling to make their way home, and still an
other portion remain here or wander about
the territory, for lack of means to get away.
The prices at this rime in the town of
Culloma, where I do my trading, about 12
miles distant from this place, are Flour 75
cts., to $1 per lb., Pork, 90 cts., to $l, 1-lam
or Butter, $1,50, Beans, $1 per lb., Dried
Apples or Peaches, $1,50 lb, Apples or Po
tatoes, 81,25 lb., Onions, 81,50 per lb, Eggs,
$1 a piece or $l2 per dozen, Coffee 75 cents
per lb. Sugar, $1 lb. Molasses 25 to $1,50
per qt., Ten is one of our cheapest articles
being from $1,2510 $1,50 per lb., Rice 80
cts. to $1 per lb, Salt, $1 per lb, Saleratus
$4 per Ib, and rill other,groceries in propor
tion. For a small Tin Bucket which holds
about 3 quarts, I paid $4. A wash pan to
wash Gold in, n little larger than our wash
basins at home from $6 to $8 a pieee. Coarse
Boots, $6O to $BO per Fair ; under drawers
$6 under shirts $8 coarse pants $lB to $l5
all other clothing in proportion. Boarding
$3O to $36 per week—per day 96—per
.meal $2. The reason ew;rything being so
high at this time is the difficulty and ex•
pense of transportation ; from Sacramento to
Culloma, 45,miles, the *transportation is al
together on pack animals, and the merch
ants have to pay 50 cents fright, per pound:
The place at which I am now working
is alleep gut ge or hollow between two moun
tains; from Oregon—hence the name it bears
4 , oregon Cannon."
My friend C. S. Cockill is with me at
this time ; he is a whole smiled friend, and
I could not have made a better selection for
a travelling, companion. 1 fear nothing so
long as he is with me, tho I must admit we
are too hard looking eases ; and I have no
doubt that if hard pushed either of us could
grin a Grizzly Bear out of countenance.—
lie has lost some flesh but is still in good
health.
/ intend being at borne by October nr
vernber next, but expect to return the fol
lowing spring to California.
The Parkmau Murder.
Ri , c;:int events occurring in Franklin coun
ty, Nlassacbtksetss, render it probable that
John Weeks, the individual traced by the
New Orleans Delta to be the nuthor of the
Texas letter about the Parkman murder,
was the man named 13. F. Cannon, of ‘Ven
tvlto disappeared from that town sud
denly on tile tfrth of November last, with
some $5OO of borrowed money ; that he
was seen :3 or 4 weeks after this in New
where he also suddenly disappeared
and was not again heard from.
Some time in February, his daughter, a
Mrs. Allen, in Worchester Co„ received let
ters purporting , to come front persons on
board a steamer plying in Texas, stating
that a Man under the assumed mime of John
Weeks, died of cholera on board that boat
on the `(1 of Feln wiry ; and that he stated
that he belonged i t Greenwicb, Ilampshire
county, Nlass,:tchus( tts, and that Mrs. Allen
was his daughter, to whom he requested to
have his trunk and efrects sent by a Mr.
Vance, of Vermont, to whom they were en
trusted. Mr. Vatter- arrived a few weeks
ago, bringing the trunk and other articles,
which the family of r. Cannon recognized
as his pre' erty. Mr. V. and his wife both
testified to the vttii.ing resemblance which
the pr,•tended We eks bore to a deguereo
type likeness of Mr. Cannon. Several oth
er circumstances are mentioned which go to
establish the indentity of Cannon and Weeks.
The facts tot re elicited on a trial in the
Probate Court in Greenfield, lost week, on
the petition of Mrs. Cannon for administra
tion on the estate of her husband. The ap
plication was resisted by the co.dit.;rs of
Weeks, nn u host , motion Mr. C. had boun
declared insolvent in January last.
THE NIEXICAN WA Li.—No adequate
idea can he formed of the amount of sutler
ing loss of life even among the Iyounded hor
ses in this sanguinary war. It is believed,
however, that bud there been in the camp,
a ;rood supply of Alurchant's Gargling Oil,
which is so celebrated Mr its healing prop--_
ernes mans• a valuable animal might Intro
been saved by its timely application.
And among, the wounded and perhaps
neglected soldiery too, in ninny rases itrune
dime relief from pain and marl} recovery
would result from the Ilse of this alinot4
never failing remedy.
