justice Civilization has not much to boast Of in
that quarter.
There is the Territory of Utah, also without
the pale, peopaed by an ignorant and bigoted
emigration from all parts of the world, held to-
gether by the practice of polygamy in its worst
FERNS. Humanity shudders at the degradation,
disgrace and suffering which those unhappy fe-
males are compelled to submit to who have be-
come the dupes Of Mermonism The hard labor.
the crael treatment, the personal neglect they
endure, is absolutely shocking The manner in
which the local government is conducted the
vulgarity of the public documents, and the occa-
sional proclamations of the Governor of this be-
nighted Territory, afford the most complete evi-
dence of bigotry, misrule and tyranny. Civiliza-
ton cannot boast of much in Utah.
There is still another spot which mars the body
polite, and is the scene of standardization. 1t
is Kansas distinguished for its border fights, its
double legislation, the burning Of houses, the
troops to enforce the laws and the utmost VIC
lence Of party spirit A pleasant picture Of
civilized life is this too in this model republic
And there is still another of these spots, with
locality the last We should expect to find. The
city of Washington, the seat of the national gov
eminent, the centre Of our national legislation
under the very shadow of the Constitution, is
getting without the pale. Murders in hotels, riots
on the floor of Congress, gambling in the ave-
nues, and corruption prevailing everywhere !!
These are the four ulcers of this happy Union.

ROMANCE OF PoLITIcs.-The Presidential cleo
ton j. taking the shape of political revolution,
with a most romantic character, and resembling
1880 and ls4s changed the destiny Of France.
As excitable 10 the Parisians, We are as ready TO
turn aside for novelty at the most critical mo-
meEts and in the present campaign, when high
and important questions are at stake, when we
should vigorously and steadily assail the corrup-
tion and misulc of the government, we find the
low Of gossip interminglcd with love of coun-
try. end every day some romantic incident, either
story Of the heart, or scene Of adventure, or
a novelty in religion, succeeding each other. and

week has the Development Of some new plot
some exposure Of the tricks Of politicians some
discovery Of some wonderful secret, which, pro-

adapted to railroad or steamboat reading. A
Presidential election is always the match which

dust few scratches and during four years the
explosion is nearly forgotten.
Just now the contest Is conducted by class Of
politicians very much on the romantic plan.
The love affairs of Col. Fremont are quite

cecded n far az the running away with HE fair
wife and his being married privately by Kind
hearted old padre. The scene In the balcony
promised as much effect as the one in Romeo and
Juliet. only that the Colonel had his Immediately
reIaired. and nobody was injured. Foot notes,
however, are beginning to be plentiful. The Dig
gers have found some ancient tombs where his
progenitors repose, and these are probably to BE-
disintcrred to add TO the horrors Of some coming
scene. They have found one box marked

No. 2. and with as much success as the diggers in

adventures Of the Cavaliers and Puritans with
more care than those excavators who are now
busy.

MURDER IN PLUMAs Co.-The Old
Mountaineer of Dec 9th, contains the
following:
A murder was committed on the
evening of the 18th ult. in Indian Val
ley, by Henry Vanorman. 1t appears
that Deith & Co. had claimed l60 acres
of land, lying in the west end of the
Valley, and Vanorman had attempted
to jump their claim, they having por-
ton of it under cultivation. On the
day above mentioned, Jacob Deitch,
the person murdered, was engaged in
plowing on the disputed territory when
Nanorman come up and ordered him
to dcsist, at the same time turning the
cattle out of the furrow twice or three
times, Deitch turning them back which
esasperated Vanorman, who immedi-
ately fred load of shot from a double
barrel shot gun, into the person of
Deitch, who fell dead Hard words
had passed between the parties in the
morning, and rumor says, that the de-
ceased or some friend, had snapped
rife Or pistol at Vanorman, who imme-
diatel y ran, but returned in the even
ing, and renewed the disturbance. A
reward of $500 has been offered for
Vanorman, by the brothers of the de-
ceased.

BIGLER LARE.-Thc report Of the Sur.
veyor of Placer county, contains the follow
description Of this lake:
''Bgler Lake is noble sheet of water,
forty-five miles in length, and at this point
fifteen miles wide. All along the western
shore of the lake, the water does not exceed
five feet in depth to the distance of about
twenty rods from the shore. 1t then evil
IDENTIFY becomes very deep, as there is q we'll
defined line of deep blue extending parallel
with the shore. The bottom of the lake, so
far as | explored it, is composed of soft
granite rock, covered over with fine parti-
cles Of granite or sand and round washed
gravel, resembling the gravel in the hill dig
gings in many places in Placer county. The
view of the lake and surrounding mountains
is most magnificent The lake is entirely
closed in with mountains. and it is impossi-
to detect the outlet by which Truckee River
flows from it unless you are in the lmmedi-
ate vicinity of the river.

BoATs FOR FLoRIDA.-A feet of thirty
metallic boats are being built at Francis'
establishment at Greenpoint, designed to
aid the United States troops in their OPERA
tions against the Indians in Florida, this
winter, particularly in penetrating the ey-
erglades. They are twenty-five feet in
length, and three feet six inches in breadth,
with lockers at each end for ammunition
and provisions. Fifteen of them are already
finished, and present a fine appearance

THE SURFACE OF THE MooN-The
observations made by Lord Rosse with
his great new telescope, are most in
teresting. His lordship assures us that
every object on the surface of the
moon one hundred feet high is now dis
tinctly visible, and, under favorable
circumstances, even sixty feet in height.
Rocks and stones innumerable are seen
but no architecture, no building, al
though such structure as Rassett
House, for instance, ought to be dis
tinctly visible, far less street, a vii
lage or a town Not vestige Of
green fields or of water appears, al
though even a small reservoir or not
very large flower plot would be recog-
nizable all seem desolate. There is
something awful in such desert soli-
tude.
