Two of the Street Sweeping Machines are prom
sed to-day, if the weather is good, and more are to
be put on Immediately City Inspector Morton has
been very active in crOwdng the contractors up
and it is expected that we shall soon see the work
going forward in all parts of the city as fast as men
and carts can be put on. There is much difficulty
in getting dumping grounds, and great deal Of
trouble in hiring enough carts; but the contractors
say that they can and will do the work, if they have
fair chance. They have done well in some Sec
tions already; but the immense accumulation OF tho
winter is not to be removed in day. Yet, if they
do succeed, we shall be as far from proper cleani
ness as ever unless the ordinances to prevent
throwing garbage, slops and ashes into the street
are enforced No attention is paid to this nuisance
BY the authorities and it is matter Of fact that the
earliest cOmplainants Of dirty streets are those who
throw this stuff down before their own doors. We
shall expect to see good beginning on the part Of
the contractors this week. and hope by the first Of
June, to record complete success.

A letter from our Kansas correspondent contains
some interesting information. Mr.. Secretary Stan
ton. while full Of blarney about his desire to have
fair election for constitutional delegates and his
desire to have the Free State participate in it,
has excused himself from interfering in any way
with the bogus Pro-Savery programme, on the
ground that the whole thing is settled by the bogus
law, and he could not touch it. 1t seems how
ever, that he has advanced beyond this point, and
that, in one county at least, he has resolved on
taking a census aud making out list of voters
entirely on his own hook, and without any regard
to the bogus statute. But why should this benefit
be confined to one county or few7 Why not e1-
tend it TO the whole Territory

We print herewith a graphic letter from 0ass
in Northern Iowa, giving an account Ola Public
Land Sale st that place, on the occasion Of Ant
bringing a new tract Of Government lands iats
market. Legally and nominslly all United Shtos
Lands arc first offered at auction, and those which
are worth more than $li per acre are then sold u
the highest bidder leaving the residue open to pre-
emption or entry at the minimum price afcrssad
Practically however, this sale by auction is farce
being oyerrued by combination Of the settlers and
SPECTATORS present not to bid against each Other
but to share the desirable tracts among them at the
minimum price Formerly, settlers were content
with quarter section each of the choice
lands at the minimum price; but they now
demand and insist on t,co quarter-scotions each
one to occupy; the other to hold on speculation
until they can sell it at a satisfactory advance
Thus the old distinction of squatters and specula
tors, if not entirely abrogated, is so modified that
there remain but resident and nom resident specu-
lators, and the formation of school districts aud
neigbborhoods must await the sale of the extra
quarter sections aforesaid.
There never was but one honest and polite mode
Of disposing of the Public Lands; and that is, BY
limiting each purchaser to a quarter-section and
forbdding the owner of that quarter section to ac'
guire more land until he shall have built on this
dwelling and put at least forty acres Thereof under
cultivation. Thus we should have had compact
settlements, roads, bridges schOOl-hOuses, industry
aud thrift, where now are incessant wandering,
spying aud grabbing, irregular habits, impotence
of the slow but sure gains of labor, frequent dest
tuition and the rising generation too often growing
up in rude ignorance. The truth will ultimately
force itself on public attention, but not till the mis-
chief through the dispersion of our people and tho
monopoly Of the choice lands shall have been rea-
dered irretrieysble.

Proudhon, we believe as the result Of some years
devotion to the study and elucdatiOn of the Science
of Government, has arrived at the sweeping cOnc!u-
sion that the best Government that could be devised
is Just none at ala conclusion which proves the
Feees, and the Diggers universally IN advance OF
the Christian and civilized world. Pearl Andrews
stops considerably short Of PrOudhons goal, affirm
ing that the true sphere Of Governments limited to
the protection Of its subjects from violence-every
one having an inherent, indefeasble right to do
whatever he may choose to do, provided he does
not thereby interfere with the cOrreative right of
others to do IS they please. Every one, according
to this rule, has perfect right TO keep grogshop
or gaming house, but the use Of slung- or the
application of the garrote under the impulse Of per-
sonal pique private enterprise, is not to be toll
erated. And, though Mr.. Andrswss theory is not
formally accepted by the majority, there would
seem 10 be many thousands who are practically Of
his opinion.
When Jefferson and his supporters laid an EN-.
barge on our trade with France ard Great Britain,
large majority ofthe commercial classes aud local
flies found that act practically rainous and were
quite naturally led to regard il as unconstitutional
Massachusetts,, then the great Shipping State, was
strongly of this opinion. She very properly made
d case under the Embargo act carried il up to the
full bench of the L. : Supreme Court argued il
there with her utmost ability, and was beaten.
That. of course. ended her practical resistance to
the act though she continued 10 agitate for it,
repeal Till she obtained il.
Now. suppose Massachusetts, hsd held the doe
trines now current in orr City Hall. she would
have begun b. legislativtly declaring the Embargo
palpably unconstitutional. therefore null and void
ard would have directed her merchants To- ,cnd their
ships on voyages precisely as II uo Embargo had
been laid. aid would have undertaken % protect
them in SO doing. This might have .hiyerei the
Union or it nigh, have defeated and dis,riceI ii.
contrivcrs: we do not thnk j. would have repealed
the Embargo.

There ls some probability that the autOcracy OF
Brigham Young has broken down at last. The
last California steamer brought rumOr from Car
son Valley that the great prophet, priest and king
of the MormOns had been obliged to run away to
avoid the fury of his own people, excited by diff
cuties relating to the management of the Church
property; and now we have from Washington
confirmation of this rumor, derived from official
dispatches received there. Our Washington dis
patch states that Young was known to have ar
ranged with the Indians surrounding the Mormon
settlements for safe escape through their country.
This arrangement he is supposed to have made
with a view to just such an exigency as the Carson
Valley report alleges to have arisen.
Whether such rebellion has yet occurred or
not, it is impossible to suppose that it can any
longer be remote. The highly interesting letter
from our correspondent at Great Salt Lake City,
which We enabled to publish this morning,
shows that Utah is surcbarged with the Fremont
tory symptoms of a revolution. We can vouch for
our correspondent honesty and the trustworth
ness Of the sources whence his information is
derived and we are confident that no one can
peruse his startling exhibit of the FOUL remorSeless
and sanguinary despotism exercised by Young and
his myrmidOns, without an assured conviction that
the end must be at hand. Surely there never was
more atrOcious and revolving tyranny than that
which our correspondent, with q few simple
touches Of the pen, depicts. Murder and robbery,
executed at the command of the prophet by secret
organization known as the Dantes who obey no other
law than his dark and unreenting will; virgins forced
to enter the harems of hoary and hated lechers;
wives separated from their husbands by the awful
power of the Church, because the bestial eye OF
some high priest has been fixed upon them; Sys.
TEN Of general espionage which explores even
letters confded to the public mas-such are the
features of this OffshoOt of intelligent American
society in the middle of tue nineteenth century
Of course such state of things cannot last. No
community on this continent can be degraded
enough to submit to it for any length of time; and
we may be that the excess of the evil will sud-
denly if not terribly work its own cure. We are
inclined, then, to place some confidence IN these
reports Of YOung's overthrow and fight
Such an event must necessarily be followed by
serious notifications of the Mormon poity. That
the entire delusion would be extinguished by it is
not probable; but while the Church would natu.
rally be split into several opposing fragments, many
of its more intelligent and interrupted members
would be restored to their senses and to civilized
life We shall wait with interest for further intel
igence from the Territory, and meanwhile we do
not doubt that the President will see the necessity
of fastening the departure of the troops intended
for that quarter. We trust, also, that an energetic
and judcious man may at once be sent out with
them to assume the office of Governor.
