Eureka, March 28. - Snow has fallen in Eastern Nevada to an almost incredible depth. The snowfall in Eureka last night was eighteen inches in two hours, and the night previous twelve inches. The roads from here southeast are in an almost indescribable condition, and the stages labor through only occasionally. For miles between Ward and Pioche the country is under water four feet deep, and passengers are armed with snow shovels to carve out a passage-way by the yard through the snow. Trains on the Eureka and Palisade Railroad are still able to make the round trip only once in two days.
