..".cv; Vol. I. YALE, MONDAY, MAY 14, 186G. Mo. 6 EN ROUTE TO BIG BEND. (from our own corrrspondknt.) French Prairie House, 30th April, (Between Seymour and tho Columbia.) f have had an exceedingly pleasant trip so far in company with your editorial friend. Along the way up I noticed many changes since last year. At Cache Creek there is a good hotel, kept by Messrs. Semlin & Park ; a telegraph oihco with Mr. Conway, Jr., as operator, and an office for Barnard's Express. Not far from the junction of tho Cache Creek road with the waggon road, the traveler comes to the celebrated "Boston" ranch. This is one of the finest farms in the colony. The proprietor keeps an hotel which receives an excellent name from those who have stopped at it. A short distance from "Boston's" is the ranch of Messrs. Cewhill & Campbell. These parties farm about two hundred acres of the finest land one can meet with. It is irrigated with the water from Cache Creek. Over one hundred acres are under cereals, and about thirty acres planted with potatoes, etc. Along the Cache Creek road there is plenty of feed for animals. I was somewhat disappointed in not finding Mr. Kaye at Savana's Ferry. The traveling public, however, will be glad to know that before these lines meet the eye, Mr. and Mrs. Kaye will have taken possession of the house at the Ferry. The change will be very much to the advantage of the public. I took passage in a large canoe for Seymour and paid $10. There being eighteen men crowded into the boat, there was anything but comfort in crossing. We were obliged to paddle and pay as well. Some had to get out and walk from Kamloops to Little Lake. There are three good ranches along the lake. The first is about nineteen miles from Kamloops, Mr. Duck being owner. Next belongs to Mr. Martin, who is building a comfortable dwelling house. He has sixty acres under cultivation with grain. The third ranch be longs to Messrs. Bennett & Co., who have about thc same extent of land as Mr. Martin under the plough. The farms look to be very much improved for the short time they are under tillage. The steamer Marten is rapidly ap. proaching completion, under thc superintendence of Captain Moffatc and Mr. Thompson. The men engaged work twelve hours a-day. Tho steamer will be running at the specified time, but her upper decks and cabins will not be finished. There are bands of cattle and pock animals grazing near Little Lake. With respect to a trail round the lakes, I think there is as much use for it as a spare pump to a man who has paid for good water works. There are places round the lakes, such as Cape Horn, where the cutting would bo through hard rock. There are other parts that require a trail far more than round the lakes, such as from one raining crock to another. If Mr, Harper thinks a trail ncceseary, let him make one at his own expense and charge a small toll to those who use it. But when cattle can be conveyed over the lakes in a few hours at a cost less than men's wages to drive them round, I think that a trail would not be patronised. There are numbers of boats on the lakes, from 50 tons down to the smallest sized canoe. They sail under every description of canvas, and even flannel jackets are some times improvised into sails. They^ are all reaping a rich harvest. Seymour City is beautifully situated at the bead of lake Shuswap, and has a commanding view of the lake. The size and style of the buildings in tho town impresses one with what I believe is fact, that the Big Bend is a rich mining country. There aro about twenty houses completed, and several more in course of construction. They vary in size from 40x30 down to 7x9. Some aro two stories high. Amongst the best I may enumerate the store of Mossrs. Smith & Ladner, a hotel for Mr. Delaporte and a hotel for Mr. Hill. I havo never seen better buildings in a new country than in Seymour. They are both substantial and ornamental. The California miners so far seem well satisfied with the country, and especially with our wayside houses, of which they speak in terms of praise. From Seymour to French Prairie the trail is better than I expected. It will be very easy to make a good road through to the Columbia river, as there will be very little stripping required to get on to a hard gravel bottom. With a good road through to the mines we will beat the Web-feet people so badly they will bo ashamed of themselves. No mining lun been dono yet on any of the creeks, but preparations to commence are boing on rapidly. I am about to start tomorrow for French Creek, with 75 lbs. on my back. I ask your sympathy.—Travelers make French Prairie from Seymour the first day. It is eleven miles. The hotel here is kept by Mon. Faujas, and is 36x40. It has a good dining room, with sleeping apartments. The table and bar aie well kept. Mr. Faujas was in the mines last fall, and from his experience there was so well satisfied as to invest his money here on the strength of the mines turning out well. In conclusion, I must congratulate you on the Buccess of the Tribunk as far as I have yet come. I am really surprised at the reception it is meeting with from every one, as it is few newspaper enterprises at first that meet with much success. The people all seem to recollect the principles which you so boldly and independently espoused in the Sentinel last year, and they want a paper now like the Tribune, that has taken its stand to truthfully represent the " well understood wishes of the people." There is but one opinion, that to the denunciations of the Sentinel the repeal of the Gold Tax is due, and not only the miners, but the traders, packers and hotel keepers will benefit largely by the abolition of a tax so obnoxious in every respect. My next letter will be from the mines. Shuswap. JOB PRINTING! Cards, Bill Heads, etc., etc., Executed at tho Taniutts Office at MODERATE BATES. Messrs.

Although the Lands and Works Department is one of the over-grown nnd huge establishments which the people of this colony are called upon to support in connection with tho Government, when there is'ony real work of the highest importance fro the welfare of the country generally to be done, the department is found to be practically useless and in- efficient. It is no secret that our merchants have bcon putting forth all their energies for some tim» past to meet the competition of foreign traders in the Big Bend mines, and that they have been forwarding large quanti se only officials, we venture to assert lhat thero would have been a practicable road to the mines from Seymour before this, nnd our merchants would not be in their present embarrassing position. Tho country has appropriate $17,000 to be expended on trails in the Big Bend district. If Mr. Trutch will not do his duty in seeing a trail made nt once to the Oolumbin, it will be for the merchants, miners and packers to take thc matter into their own hands rather than nllow the interest of themselves and the country to be sacrificed by the Inefficiency of a department that is a disgrace to the country. SALE OF TOWN LOTS. Before many weeks will elapse, the Government will hold n public sale of town lots at Seymour. Now, it is well known that a large number of people have already taken up AUCTION.

We shall return to this plies to meet the demand that will arise in the subject mines. There can be no excuse for the Surveyor-General absenting himself from the interior. In addition to the other numerous employees he has at present on his list, the country supplies him with two clerks, and surely tliey should be Bufllcient to look after the ofiice work of the department without the head being at the desk aljo The public have little idea of the immense staff at present in connection with the Lands and Works Department. Just that people may form some notion of ihe extent of the establishment, we will enumerate the force at present employed: 1st. Surveyor-General, Mr. Trutui. 2d. Assist. Snrveyor-Generul, Mr. M'oberly 3d. Assist. Surveyor-General, Mr. Dewdney. 4th. Assist. Surveyor-General, Mr. Turnbull. oth. Assist. Surveyor-General, Mr. Leech. ftth.

Besides these there are supervisors of roads and others that we are unacquainted with. The expense of such a department, as our readers may imagine, is something enormous,' and the return the people get for keeping up such a huge establishment is really nothing. The Surveyor-General knows something about contracting. Now, if tho business of the Lands and Works Department was given out to him on tender, is there n man in this colony who dot S 'iot believe that it would be all done b> Mr. Prutch himself with the assistance of Mr. Thomas Spence? Not one; and tht-re are i'"xv who do not believe that the work would be performed far be'ter than it is at present, and with greater satisfaction to the public.

YALE, MONDAY, MAY 14, 1866. ROAD TOLLS. From the Big Bend Mines. Fully three months have elapsed since the Administrator of the Governmont promised to have arrangements made, through which he would be enabled to remove the tolls levied at Lytton on goods in transit to the Big Bend mines. Although every one acknowledged the practical necessity of taking immediate action in a matter so vitally affecting the wel fare of the country generally, nothing has been done up to the present moment to carry out the " well understood wishes of the people." The first excuse alleged for not removing the tolls months ago was, that Mr. Wright had to be first arranged with for his reversionary interest, and he was up country. That plea is no longer tenable, Mr. Wright having arrived at New Westminster many weeks since. Seeing that goods are now brought up the Columbia river and thrown into the mines in competition with those from this side, it behoves the Government to lay aside at once the procrastinating spirit that hangs over it and act immediately, so that our merchants will not be driven out of the markets of the colony. The season for forwarding goods into the mines is now far advanced, and the Government is guilty of a gross breach of faith with the country in continuing the tolls so long at Lytton. There is no disguising of the fact that the Government is taking advantage of the merchants, and at the same time of the miners, by the course it is pursuing. It is too bad that the country's progress is to be hindered by an effete Gov ernment like that which is now sapping the vitals of this unfortunate colony in so many different ways. Jull Description.—In our last issue we mentioned that the body of a man had been found floating in the Fraser, near Hope, by an Indian. The following is a full description of the deceased: "flight, about five feet ten inches; apparently of fair complexion, with light hair, (uncertain about the hair as it was nearly all gone); the body was clad in a grey under-shirt, white over-shirt, grey drawers and socks, black cloth trowsers without pockets, (the pockets may have been cut out by Indians,) well made double soled boots; in short, the body had every appearance of having been very respectably clothed. There were no indications of foul play discerned." In the absence of the resident magistrate, an enquiry before the chief constable of Hope and a number of resident inhabitants of the place was held, but nothing to lead to the identification of deceased elicited. If any one in the upper country can give information that would possibly lead to the identification of the unfortunate man who has lost his life, he should communicate with the resident magistrate here, Mr. Saunders. Mr. James Reardon, a miner, arrived here direct from French Creek on Tuesday. He left the creek on account of ill health on the 26th ultimo. He is the first arrival this season direct from the mines. We have re- eeived the following important intelligence from him. Up to the 26th no real mining had been done on any of the creeks or gulches, but preparations were in progress and several companies would soon be at work. The snow had almost disappeared from the bed of the creeks, but on the banks and hills was still very deep. Our informant, who is an old California and Cariboo miner, is exceedingly well pleased with the appearance of the Big Bend as a gold bearing country. He says it is very like the Northern mines of California in Sierra county. French Creek Mr. Reardon describes as being on an average 250 feet wide, with steep hanks on each side. There is a vast deal more water in it than in Williams Creek, probably as much as in Lightning Creek. Claims are located for a distance of two and a half miles up from the Discovery claim, which is a mile from the mouth of the creek. A great many old Cari- booites have claims on French Creek. Upwards of two hundred compapies have taken up ground. Tlie . Discovery company was building a wheel, preparing a pump and setting sluices. A full interest in this claim had been sold for $2,500. The saw mill belonging to Romano was not finished. The proprietor paid $1 per lb. for packing oyer some of the machinery. The mill is at the mouth, which is not considered a very eligible place for it. The banks of the creek, as well as the country generally, are heavily timbered with cedar. A town is springing up on a flat about six feet I nominal: above the bed of the creek on tho soutli side.!cents; No Six houses were already erected and others Sugar, 60 were in progress. On McCullough's Creek claims were located up to its source, a distance of some three or fonr miles. There is very little water in this creek. Our informant saw a piece of gold taken out of Gallacher's claim worth $17. Gallacher was taking out good pay, but he was trrvubled a good deal with boulders. On Camp Creek there were a considerable number of people prospecting. Mining tools were very scarce, and up to the time Mr. Reardon left provisions were rather scarce also. From Wilson's landing to French Creek is a distance of ten or twelve miles. The trail crosses Camp and sequence. It is Mr. Black's opinion that goods cannot be takon across the present Government trail before the 1st of July next unless it is improved. It was attempted to take two head of cattle into the mines, but it was found impracticable after they had gone fifteen miles. There was a report that a new creek had been struck. George Weaver and a party of four men had gone up the Columbia river about forty miles on a prospecting expedition. Some of the passengers who came hy tlie steamer Oregon arrived at tlie head of Ihe lakes in eleven days from San Francisco. They v ent up from Yale to Savana's Ferry by the express stages. Flour was rated on thc Columbia at from 35 to 45 cents per lb. Henry Evans, a brother of George Evans the packer, died at Seymour on the 1st of April lust of mountain fever. He belonged to Oregon, and was aged about 38 years. Samuel Weir of Williams Creek was at Seymour in a state of mental derangement. He jumped jnto the lake from the deck of a boat and swam ashore. He also broke through a window of a house in 'Seymour, at night, and was subsequently found out in the woods. He was brought back and placed under restraint. Freight across the lakes was 2{ cts. per lb. It is supposed that after the steamer is running, it will be reduced to I cent per lb. There were at least 3,000 head" of cattle at Kamloops. Campbell & Co. had about 300 head; French Tic, 300 head; Harper, 600 head; Oregon drovers, 400 head; Tuomy, 250 head; French Joe, 200 head; lots in the hands of small dealers, 850 head; total, 3,000 head. This estimate, of course, is only an approximation, but it will be found pretty near the exact number. Goods were not selling at Seymour, and the following prices are only Flour, 12 to 18 cents LETTER FROM SEYMOUR. Seymour, 10th May, 1866. To Editor Biutish Columbia Tribdnk: Sir,—You state that the expression contained in the report of the grand jury of Yale was strongly in favor of the County Court Amendment Bill, extending the jurisdiction to the amount of $500. I must say their opinion '3 identical with that of the Whole population of this tipper country ; those who opposed tho Bill, as you truly say, did not represent the interests of the country ; no, they represented their own interests. One wanted to be puisne judge, another was playing for the AttOrney-Geiieralsliip, and the balance of the opposition were like so many simpletons whipped up to the sticking point to stand out against tho Bill, which they have done, not having sense enough to discover the difference between the ambition of their leaders and tho people's wants. The legal adviser of the Crown, I see, has done nil in his power to defeat the passage of the ordinance, and finally succeeded in having a suspending clause inserted. The hon. member for Cariboo East used all his eloquence against this Bill, contrary to the interests of his constituency. The hon. representative of the people of Lillooet and Douglas, alias New Westminster, was shocked at the idea of County Court judges having such power, he believed it would affect the lumber and coal trade, and the amount of damage Captain Stamp's saw mill would sustain would be incalculable. Now, sir, how easy it is to perceive the selfishness of this New Westminster clique, who would actually sacrifice the general prosperity of this colony in order to carry out their own ends; and if such hon. gentlemen are henceforth called Bacon, 624 upon to represent the people of this colony, 1 S. I. Sugar, 3H cents; Crushed]it is hoped most earnestly that Union will be cents ; Butter, $1; Fresh Beef, 25 to 30 cents; Liquors, no sales. ADDITIONAL. From Mr. Williams, who arrived here on Saturday evening last direct from McCullough's Creek, we have the following further information from the mines: Our informant, who is a miner, left McCulloch's Creek on the 2d inst., and is on his way to New Westminster for medical treatment. He reports about 3,000 men spread over the mines, although the current report places the number at live thousand. All the ground on French, McCullough and (lamp Creeks is staked off, and many persons finally consummated, and if not, that his excellency the Governor will break up this bogus Legislative Council nnd take the responsibility on himself, supported by the people, in an honest and true light. This place is improving rather slowly, there seems to be a want of confidence as to whether this is to be tin? place or not for the town that is to be the head of lake navigation. The reason of this doubt is altogether owing to the discovery of another route, from an arm of the Shuswap lake some distance to the south and east of this place. It appears that reports have been made by reliable persons, that a pass has been discovered from the above said arm of the lake to the Columbia river that is lower by thousands of feet than the present Moberly or Government trail. Parties have just crossed, who say there is no enow Newspaper Personalities.—We wish the public to distinctly understand that our aim in establishing this journal was not to bandy personalities with an unscrupulous Governmont hireling newspaper like that published at New Westminster, but to aid in redressing the anomalies and abuses of the Government, to spread information concerning the resources of the country, and to endeavor to raise the colony from its present state of depression to a condition of wealth and importance by drawing a population into it that would contribute to the development of the vast resources which it contains. If we keep these objects steadily in view, without turning aside to notice the scurrilous personal attacks made upon us, and prompt d by envy at our success, we believe we will be accomplishing objects that will en- . who have gone in lately havo been disap McCullough's Creeks and strikes Fronc'.i Creek pointed in getting claims on these celebrated where the new town is in progress, about one creeps.

It was1 said that she had very little difficulty in getting up the river. Twelve soldiers from Col- ville had come to the mines, but had not brought, their arms with them as reported. Very little jumping had taken place on any of the creeks. In a few cases where thc parties had not represented the claims before they were laid over last year, some pe sons going in this season had taken them up. nince he would locate. There will be litigation in consequence. The]r,he rCport that very arrival of fifty boats up the Columbia had cheapened provisions at tho mines and flour was offered at $40 per cwt., with prices tending still downward. Mr. Reardon is of opinion that at. least 1,500 men arc in the mines. Every one seems well pleased with the country and high hopes are indulged as to the future. Quartz can be seen all over the country cropping out of the ground. In crossing to Seymour, Mr. Reardon met two men taking two head of cattle and one carcass into the mines. [sinking has been chiefly through gravel. Mr. Williams is a partner in one of the companies, and he entertains the greatest confidence that the result of the prospecting will be highly satisfactory. The indications of gold were very good up to the time our Informant left. Mr. O'Reilly had arrived at the mines and was paying the different creeks a I visit before he would determine upon the Mr. Williams confirms little mining had been done on any of the creeks on account of the snow, but preparations for commencing were actively going forward. Some parties who had arrived loafed around for a few d.iys and were talking about returning. The place will be well rid of such characters. Telegraphic Sumnuirj. Marysville, May 10.—C. L.

It contains a large amount of most interesting intelligence, and is most creditably brought out by the publishers, Messrs. Allen & Lambert. Wc trust that thc paper will receive a very large measure of support from the public. Cariboo.—We have news from Cariboo to the 7th inst. Thc weather was mild and men were beginning to work. On Grouse Creek a company are taking out tho "biggest kind of pay." On the 6th they picked off tho bedrock below the drift 30 oz. of nuggets without washing. |3^~ The banks of British North America and British Columbia will receive respectively $94,500 and $54,000 in gold dust from Cariboo by the Express at present on its way down. trail in winter. A large number of men who wintered in Cariboo and Kootenay had arrived in the Big Bend beforo Mr. Reardon left. FURTHER. Mr. James Black, tho packer who arrived here on Thursday evening from Seymour, we have thc following particulars concerning the mines: Mr. Black left Seymour on the 5th inst. Jim May had been over from French Creek for provisions and mining apparatus. lie stated that very little work had been done on any of the creeks, owing to the state of the ground from snow, etc. All, however, were busy preparing to commence operations. Jim and bis company had put down a shaft] twenty-six fee! without left side below the breast. The pistols used wore very large, and were so near his body as to burn his clothes and blacken his flush. Little hopes are entertained of his recovery. San Francisco, May 10.—The steamer Constitution, for Panama, sailed to-day, carrying 350 passengers aud $3511,418 in treasure.

That the discovery of this new pass is a most important aud most valuable one to this colony cannot be denied, and the Government should Immediately take the proper steps to have it at once explored, it being the only show we have to compete with our fast and energetic neighbors of Washington Territory. There is here at present Assistant Surveyor-General Moberly, and his detachment of explo-ro-rers, laying back iu ordinary, carelessly waiting for active service. A few- days ago his standing army was reinforced, Capt. Lay ton arriving here with a number of raw recruits (from the different runch-a-rces) to act as pioneers in crossing the mountains. It is disgusting to see this useless brigade living on the sweat of honest men's brows, laying around here in the lap of luxury resting on their marrow-bones. The plan that our Chief Commissioner of Lands and Works adopted in having Government act as its own contractor, will, in a few years, leave this colony in bankruptcy, if it has not done so already. It is plain enough to perceive or judge what he is doing, from the gang he has attached to him ; one spends $50,000 of the public money iu building a trail to Kootenay, which is impracticable i'w animals; tho other explores and builds a trail from Shuswap lake to the Columbia river, at an elevation high enough to make it Impraotioable also, for the greater part ol the year. All tills expenditure may be considered a dead loss, and before any more money is expended on the present trail, I he exploration of this lately discovered pass ought to be tho first act of the (iovern- ment, then invite tenders to complete the work, and discharge to a man this army of exploration whose actual expenses for one season would build a waggon road norois the summit from the lake to the Columbia river. It is all very nice to look at their beautiful maps, with hills, valleys and tributaries laid down that never existed. The journal, also, is a most interesting piece of literary composition, which in all probability will liirnish the first teaching of the youth of British Oolimn bia, and the proudest recollections of their childhood will hereafter be the iidventuros, discoveries and achievements of the army of the j Lands and Work* Department.

A Moonlkhs Month.—The month of February, 1866, which is now gone, will be marked in tho astronomical calendar as the month which had no full moon! January had two lull moons, and March had two; but February had none. Of course this peculiar conjuncture of periods that makes the full moon show her (ace but a few hours before the month comes in, and again a fow hours after tho month goes out, is a rare thing in nature—but how rare, do you suppose, gentle reader? It has not occurred beforo in your lifetime nor ours— not since tho time of Washington ; nor since the discovery of America by Columbus ; no, nor since the Christian era, nor since the fall of Adam, nor since the creation of the world, unless that be placed back myriads of years. And it will not occur ngain according to the computation of astronomers for two million and a half of years—or probably never—for before that circle of ages shall be completed, it is our Christian faith that time will be ended, and tho solar system be destroyed.—[Evangelist.
