The Courier says during tho past freek escaped convicts have been seen or heard in every part of the country for a radius of 30 or 40 mi leu of Hope Valley. Io fact they must be thicker than graishoppers at Mono Lake. When they visited Oil more Springs and partook of refreshments the guests at Tullac saw from two to five convicts behind every tree for the next three or four days. Since they reported in Careon Valiev all the dogs have been busy barking at convicts, and poor hobos who ordinarily have a pottosful time in this section, have suffered no end of annoynuoe from inquistivo people who imagine they resemble some of of the pictures of the encapea. The p«*ople about Woodford-* and Murk* Neville are positive that the fugitives have remained in the vicinity of Round Top ever since they onHeri at the Hufftier place, and a few claim that they are being supplied withfood by tome friends in that vicinity Mr. Johnson of courm* thinks tbe parties who took hts clothes and money are the fallows Ed. Don ovauof the Mountain House has not seen any of them, therefore it it reasouuble to assume that five of th in are in the vicinity of Hope Valley.four are probablj sojourning around Lake Tahoe, four or five ars ». r rounded at Hot Springs near Murkleeville, four or fivs are resting iu th® willows and alfalfa fields of Carson Valley and thirty or forty more are scattered through central and northern California. There are u. rtainly pl«nty of convicts roaming Mruuml and people who are out tor that bind of game should have good hunting moat anywhere.
