EXTRAORDINARY SALE OF LAND AND NJ.
estate Of Alexander Moore,
of Halifax county, Va, was appraised i'm.
medately after his death, in 1850, at be.
tween $2l 900 and $4,000. The execu-
tor, Woodson Hughes, Esq. kept the
estate together until October, 1856, when
he made sale of the whole property at pub
lie auction for cash, or for bonds well Sc
cured, bearing interest from date The es-
tate, at the time Of the sale, consisted of
| 900 acres Of land and forty.Gye slaves
Five Of these slaves were old and dccrepid,
and were an incumbrance. From the year
1850 to 1856 several likely slaves had died,

in 1850 at $22 900, was sold at public auc-

Judge Douglass COrnered at Last

In 1850 Judge Douglas said that be was
the author of the bills for the admission Of
California into the Union, and organization
Of the territorial governments Of Utah and
New Mexico; that he prepared those bills
with his own hands, Gnd therefore held
himSeli responsible for them; if they were
wrong, charge the wrong to him.
In 1851, in his Springfield speech, he
says, repeal the act of organization Of the
Utah territory under certain circumstances
Thus the negro worshippers have made out
clear case Of inconsistency against Judge
Douglas, among those who have never read
the organic law of that territory. aud are
making quite blow over it. But upon
reading that law, the constant failure Of
the "all intelligence " party is prominent
part of the result. 1t turns out that the
organic law of Utah is repcalable in its
terms, and by distinct provision cngrafted
in the bill by Senator Douglas. The or
ganic law Of that territory is not Ike that
Of any other, and was framed purposely to
meet necessity for its repeal, should that
ever occur. AS general thing organic
territorial laws cannot, with seeming pro-
prety, be repealed, but in the case Of
Utah, that provision was made in her or
ganic act
Undoubtedly Judge Douglas deserves
the gratitude Of the nation for his foresight
in this matter, in preparing, in 1850, for a
measure that he at present SO ably advo-
Gates, and thus saving much trouble and an
extremely awkward position from Detailing
our government in the adjustment of this
ugly Utah question.-Eastcrn A,inOisian.

Justice, in comparative sense, has al
ready been extended to Gov. SrETENs by
our citizens, in his triumphant election as
our delegate to Congress, who, throughout
aIl our Indian difficulties, and times of peril
and adversely, discharged his duty so well
and faithfully. Assigned, by virtue Of his
office, to the arduous and complicated du-
ties of Governor, Commander-in-chef OF
the volunteer forces, and Superintendent Of
Indian Affairs, he performed an amount Of
labor, and was constantly subjected to per-
plexities such as but few men would have
been capable of withStanding, or endowed
with the endurance and nerve to perform.
Fortunately, however, he was ably sustain,
ed and seconded in the Superntendency,
BY Indian Agents, Messrs. JOIN CAIN and
MT. SINNoNs-in connection, as gener-
ul rule, by all the special agents in the ter
ritOry. Equally fortunate in the volunteer
military operations against the Indians,
Gov. STEVENS had the sagacily, in most in
stances, to appoint to the most responsible
positions, the very men, Of all others, the
best adapted to meet any emergency. The
excellent manner and the promptness in
which the affairs of the Quarter Master
and Commissary Generals apartment were
conducted, receives an universal applause,
which is cordially extended by our citizens
to most Of the officers, troops in the field,
and oil branches of our late volunteer or
rauization.

WHERE WILL THEY GET HUsBANDs?-It
appears by tho last census, that the excess
of females over males in the State of Mas
sachusetts is 33,0jG. This excess is partly
accounted for by the tendency among the
sons of the Bay State to cmigratc 10 other
parts of the country, and by the resort of
native and foreign females to the factories
In Lowell alone, the excess Of females over
males is S0SS. One thing (says the New
York Sum is certain: Massachusetts can
not furnish husbands for its marriagable
female population, and Lowell, especially
we should think, would be an excellent
place for bachelors who wish to get mated
Iu fourteen cities of Massachusetts the
proportion of females to every 100 males
was, in 1855, as follows: In Boston, los;
Lowell, 1853; Worcester, l04; Charlestown,
