Dreadful state Of Affairs in Utah.
? WAsHIsaroN, March 10. 1857.


A letter was received here to-day from w.
W. Drummond, United States Supreme Judge
in Utah Territory, by the administration. It
gives sad and deplorable picture of matters
in that Territory. Tho following is taken
from the letter:
"The leading men of the church are more
traitorous than ever. Only few days since
all the papers, records, dockets, and nine hun
dred volumes Of the laws, were taken out of
the Supreme Court Clerks Office and burned.
And this is not the only instance of the kind.
say to you again, and through you to the
President, it is impossible for us to enforce the
laws in this Territory: Every man here
holds his life at the will Of Brigham Young;
and here we are without protection. am
firmly of the opinion that Rabbit was murder.
ed by Mormons under direction Of Brigham
Young, and not by Indians. Murder is q
common thing here; and Mormons cannot be
punished with Mormon jury, witnesses, Of
ficers, and Governor to pardon. 1t is toe
cruel, and must not be endured. A man. moi
a member of the church. is murdered, robbed
castrated, imprisoned, solely for questioning
the authority of the church. Persons are
now in the penitentiary, convicted before tn,
Probate Judge, who are wholly innocent o
any crime. Is there any other country wher'
this abuse is or would be endured? Let u.
all, then, take hold and crush out one Of tn,
most reasonable organizations in America
The administration have had the matte
under serious consideration, and will sool
appoint Governor, | understand, who will
take sufficient military force into that Terri
tory to carry out the laws to the fullest OF
| tent.

BorLKR ExPLosION.-About two o'clock
yesterday afternoon, the boiler attached to the
Foundry Of Messrs. Kratz & Heilman, ex-
plodcd. The whole end Of the building in
which the boiler was situated was blown out,
and pieces of iron and brick were thrown over
two hundred feet from the spot. One piece of
the boiler passed through the entire length OF
tho Foundry, out through window, without
injuring any one, though over fifty persons
were engaged in that department. The walls
Of brick house, over a hundred feet from the
boiler, were spotted with the shower Of bricks
and water thrown against them. Everything
in the vicinity Of the explosion was effected
byit, and yet, strange to say, no one was in
jured.
This accident will interfere, for few days,
with the Foundry work, but it is subject OF
congratulation that no one was injured. The
Foundry will resume it's operations next
Monday. The boiler had been in use up.

Msst;neef the Directors Of the E. 4 c. 4. :.
The Board met yesterday in this city, and
the operations of the Road for the last ski

been highly satisfactory. During that period
the Directors have been enabled to liquidatc

which have become rotten and worn out; they
have also provided large additional accommo-
dations for the increasing business Of the Road.
The Directors did not think it expedient to
adopt Internationally, at the present time,
the amendment to their charter authorizing
them to change the termination Of their Road
from Charlottesville to Attica; there are some
matters which should be previously arranged;
and before fully committing themselves to the
undertaking, they were DESTROYS of learning
what aid could be secured for the extension Of
the Road beyond its present terminus on the
proposed line above. They, therefore, voted
themselves committee to canvass for sub
scriptions for the extension of the Road to
Rockville; and in May next another meeting
will be held at Terre Haute, to which the
Stock Committee will report, and at which q
final determination. in regard to the extension
of the Road through to Attica, will be made.
That that resolution will be adopted no one
doubts. In the mean time, all parties along

MURDER IN WARRIcK CoUNTY-The exam.
inaton in reference to the murder commit
ted in Warrck county, on the evening Of the
2ith is proceeding at Boonvills, before JUS
tce Brown. The facts developed, are as fol-
lows: McClintock. the deceased, was sitting
with his family at his residence near Boon
vile, on the evening referred to, and for some
reason, went to the door, and while standing
there, was shot in the right side. Eight rifle
balls penetrated his side, discharged probably
from musket. McClintock turned to enter
his dwelling, and fell dead. Three men, Mi.
mas johnson, Tennison, and one whose name
We did not learn, have been arrested. The
evidence against them is not conclusive of
their guilt Tracks corresponding with the
size and shape of Johnsons shoe, have been
traced from the place Of the murder to a
road in the vicinity Of Johnson's house, and
it is known that the parties were enemies in
consequence Of lawsuit. The two Others
have not, as yet been examined. The ver-
dict, OF the Coroner's jury implicated the
three now in custody. 1t is one of the most
brutal and cold blooded murders. it has ever
been our lot to record. The bullets taken
from the body of the deceased, had been ham,
mered in order to prevent their recognition,
and all the circumstances attending the kill
ing, prove that it was premeditated muir
der. Maj. Robinson is engaged in the prose-
cution, in connection with Mr. l. S. Moore,
and every exertion is being made to discover
and bring to punishment the author Of this
high-handed crime. We shall lay before our
readers at the earliest day, the further par.
it'culars Of this trial, as they may transpire.

The trade Of st. Louis for the present sea-
son has vastly exceeded that Of any previous
year. Although up to last week the Upper
Mississippi had been open only as far up as
Burlington, and the Missouri was very low,
the city had been crowded with purchasers,
and the levee and the principal business streets
were scarcely sufficient to afford the necessary
accommodations for the business that had been
crowded into them. They were everywhere
obstructed by the piles of merchandise, that
were being received and dispatched in every
direction. st. Louis holds central position
which must make her one of the great COM
msrcial emporiums of the continent. Sur
rounded by resources in mineral wealth un-
eoualled, at the confluence of vast rivers, and
now becoming the focus Of numerous railroads,
whose examinations are upon the Atlantic
coast on one side, and soon will be upon the
shores of the Southern Gulf on another, and
finally will extend to the frozen regions of the
Arctic on the North and to the stormless seas
of the Pacific on the West, she would seem
to have destiny before her of commercial
prosperity and greatness as yet unexampled
in the world. One Of her roads is daily
stretching its line South towards the Iron
Mountain, and thence to Memphis, where it
will connect with the raGii Of roads from that
point to the South and Southeast. Another
is progressing west into Kansas and towards
the Pacific with branch that strikes off to
the Southwest into Arkansas and to Texas
another that crosses the Missouri, and is fas.
pushing its way-with numerous latera
branches-to the north line Of the State, ant
will soon penetrate Iowa, and is designed t
extend its long arm into Minnesota and thu
frozen regions of the North. All of thes'
roads have the liberal, fostering support of th'
State, which has appropriated S20.OO0,O00 o
her credit to aid them ; and they are rapidly
progressing through the most Astounding min
eral and agricultural regions that will, in
few years, be pouring their concentrated
streams of wealth and trade into the lap O
their favored city. No spot on the globe, i
appears to US, unitcs so many local advanta
ges for an extensive commerce and an illimi
table extension Of her mechanical industry
A recent geological survey Of the State, show
nearly one half the State around st. Loui
and to the north Of her, to be vast coal bed
and that the other mineral wealth OF the Stat
is boundlcss. To the East the city commands
by her railways, the resources Of the ricl
State Of Illinois. And her five roads, divers
ing to as many points of the compass. eac
will come freighted with coal, iron, lead, COP
per and the most precious metals. for the us
of man, and which contribute the most pei
manent wealth. We can see nothing in tn
career Of st. Louis, but the most unintsrrupi
cd prosperity; and she has population wit
broad and liberal views-with enterprise an
energy, worthy Of their destiny. -sIs

NICAIAGUA.-The steamship Tennessee ar
rived at New York, on Friday last, bringing
intelligence from Nicaragua. to March 10th.
Col. Titus, Of Kansas notoriety, had been tax
en- prisoner by Her b. Majesty's boat Victor,
for insulting British officer. Col. Titus had
previously attacked the Costa Ricans at Cas-

by the Costa Ricans, with loss Of % killed
and 10 wounded. His conduct is represent.

Walker has had several skirmishes, but with
out much loss. On the 9th Of March. the
allies surrounded and attacked r vaS-Gen

to have been about 1000 strong. The first
attack was made upon the arsenal, from which
they were driven, after standing three rounds
of canister. The next charge was made nea,
