(From the Houston Telegraph. January 4] _ Several gentlemen arrived 1a town a,lew days since, on their way to Caliternia, by the route from Houston to Chihuahua, and thence tothe Sacra- mento valley, One of these geatlemen travelled from Missouri to Chihuahua last year by the San- ta Fe route; and from the information he obtained an the former city respecting the route through Texas, he isso firmly convinced that the latter route is preferable to that by Santa Fe, that he had concluded with his companions to proceed imme. diately by ti18 route to the far-tamed El Dorado of the Pacific. It appears from the statements of this gentleman, and the observations of Dr. Conolly, of Chihuubua, who recompanied the exvedition from Chihuahua, through Texans to Ked River, in 1840, and aleo by the report of Col. Haya, that there 18a good wagon road trom the Colorad», by the head of the San Saba to the Rio Grande, above the Presidio del Norte. The main wagon road from ®anta Fe to Chihuahua by El Paso, crosses the 10 Grande forty miles below the latter towa and about one hundred miles above the Presidio del Norte. There is another roud leading from El Paso to Chihuahua, which crosses the river oppo- site to El Paso and unites with the lower road at ‘Lake Patos. The distance from the Rio Grande, where the lower road crosses the river to Chihua- hua, is abour 300 miles, It appears trom the re- port of Col. Hays, that the distance from the 3an Saba to the Rio Grande, where this road crosses the river, ut about 200 miles. The distance from Jouston to the San Sabais about 200 miles, and lhe road 18 : racticuble, at all seasons, for wagons. The Califorma emigrant, therefore, by taking he route fiom Houston to Chihuahua, has a dis- ince of but seven hundred or seven huadred and fifty miles to travel, on a good wagon road, to reach hihvahua. While on the Sauta Fe route, the istance from the nearest navigable point on the issouri to Santa Fe, according to Dr. Greg, who avelled this route times, 13 770 miles. The lance from Senta Fe to Chihuahua is 440 miles, king the entire distance by lund, trom [adepen- ence, in Missouri, to Chihuahua, 1,210 miles; full miles further than the route from Houstoa to hihuakua. There 1s also this advantage that the oute from Houston poss-sses—it is entirely free rom snow and ice one ortwo menths before the Fanta Fe trace is open; and emigrants by this route an find an abundance of pasturage, while the Santa e road 1s buried one or two feet deep in saow. he road from Chibuabua to Caitfurnia also pos- eses this advantage: it 1s so far to the south that can be traversed in winter, and it has beea the joroughfare of Mexican and Spanish caravans rhalt a tury, The whole road vas been ex- jored, and all the stopping places are as well own as those on the great roud trom Chihuahua Mexico. Col. Washington, with bis light artil- rant the baggage wagons, containing military joFes, provisions, &c., tor the larue detachmeatof ops under hts command, has taken this route tn reference to any other that has vet been explored remout’s Basin, and across the Sierra route by Chagres is preferred by avy capitalists and merchants, because they ean ach their desunation ina few weeks. The cost transportation over the I-thmus of Panama, aad e exorbitant charges on the Gulf steamboats and je Pacific packets are so immense that few emi- rants can afford to travel by the Panama or hagres route Ta view of these facts, we would commend to all emigrants who are desirous to vel to Calitarmia, not to wait uonl the Santa Fe lute is Open, but to imitate the enterprising em- ants who are about to start trom this city, and mmence their journey atonce — The roure 13 ex- red and proved to be entirely practicable tor gons; and the gallant Col.

Every- bedy has heard of the Spanish Don, who demand- ed admittance one night to a amall eit! inn. The people were all in bed, and being at [ength aroused by his repeated knocking, the hostess pat her head ont of the window, demandiag who was there? The Don replied giving his name and titles in full, but before he got half throngh, the old lady slammed down the window, exclaiming she conld not accommodate so many peoole, having only one bed to spare in the house! Well, it appears that this distinguished gentleman, whose existence we had always, til! now, imagined to ba apochrvphal, 1sdeceased; and his widow, being a tensible woman, has invested some of the lat Don’s wealth in United States stocks. which bear the following “short” names and titles on their face :—“The United States promise to pay, &c., to Maria del Carmen Victoire Moreno, widow of * Alexandre Joseph Marie Leon Pierre Paul Ray- mond Loms Gonzales Aguado, Marqus de las Merismas del Guadalquiver, in trust for Ooezipps Gonsalve Jean Alexandre Olyne Aguade, a mi+ ner!” Now we consider ithis “a name as is a name,” as Captain Cuttle would ob- serve; and the beauty of itis, we can ecarcely tell which most to admire—the father’s ten aames, or his con's six names. However, as majorities rule in this country, we cast our vote in favor of the old gentleman. By the way, we are enabled to answer the query, “what's in a name?” by reply ing, “ten words.” B.
