Another Pony Express.—A project is on foot in Nevada to establish a Pony Express between that place and Carson City. The Democrat says: We learn that sufficient stock has already been subscribed to carry out the enterprise. The intention is to connect Nevada with the Overland Pony Express at Carson City. Competent judges say that the distance between the two places can be made in eight hours, and by this means Nevada will be placed two days nearer the East than by the present route round by Sacramento.
