Affairs Of Utah.

The following letter from Judge Drum
mond, of Utah, will attract the attention
of the public, and if there be any self-re-
spect or regard for law in the administra-
ton, must lead to a vigorous effort for the
establishment of the federal authority in
that Territory, where it has long been not
only disregardcd, but insulted and de6ed
and outraged:
To the Hon. j. s. Black, Attorney General 70 the Uni
ted States, IVdshingt2n City
My DEAR SIR: As have concluded to
resign the Office Of Justice Of the Supreme
Court of the Territory Of Utah, which po-
sition accepted in A. d. 1854, under the
administration Of President Pierce, deem
it due to the public to give some Of the
reasons why l do SO. In the first place,
Brigham Young, the Governor Of Utah
Territory, is the acknowledged head of the
" Church of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day
Saints" commonly called Mormons," and
as such head the Mormons look to him,
and to him alone, for the lat0 by which they
are to be governed therefore no law of
Congress is by them considered binding in
any manner.
Secondly, know that there is a secret
oath-bound organization among all the
male members Of the church, Cand to ac-
knowledge no law save the law of the
Holy Priesthood" which come up to the
people through Brigham Young, direct
from God, he, Young, being the vicegerent
of God and prophetic successor OF Joseph
Smith, who was the founder Of this blind
and reasonable organization.
Thirdly, l am fully aware that there is
a set of men set apart by special order of
the church to take both the lives and prop
erty of persons who may question the
authority Of the church, (the names of whom
| will promptly make known at a future
time.)
Foarthly, That the records, papers, &C.,
of the Supreme Court have been destroyed
by order of the church, with direct knowl-
edge and appreciation Of Governor B.
Young, and the federal officers grossly in
suited for presuming to raise a single ques-
tion about the reasonable act.
Filthy, That the federal officers of the
Territory are constantly insulted, harrassed
and annoyed by the Mormons, aud for
those insults there is no redress.
Sithly, That the federal officers are daily
compelled to hear the FORM of the Ameri-
can government traduced, the chief execu-
tives of the nation, both living and dead,
slandered and abused from the masses, as
well as from all the leading members of the
church, in the most vulgar, lathsome and
wicked manner that the evil passions man
can possibly conceive.

From OREGoN.-Messrs NEsMTH and
Bush, the former Superintendent OF Indian
Affairs for Oregon and Washington, and
the latter the editor of that sterling demo-
cratic sheet, the Oregon Statesman, arrived
at this place on yesterday, in.fne health
and spirits. Their outward appearance
alone would too plainly indicate, without
knowledge of their reputation as such, that
they are emocrats-demOerats all Orer.--
Mr.. Bush has always been found manfully
battling all democratic opposition, and it is
well for the niggerites here that they haven't
him to contend against. The bones OF
fusonism would be made to quake in their
very boots The democracy Of Col. NEs-
NTH, and his firm adhesion to its faith, has
never been doubted, but on the contrary,
in the prefer Of the position as Superintend-
ent, which he now holds, is but an acknowl-
edgment of his merits as man and a
democrat, which cannot be otherwise than
hattering to himself, and to the people of
Oregon generally. May they long live the
life of usefulness, in the enjoyment of the
confidence of the entire democratic party
long remember their visit to the Sound, and
while they remain with us, may they make
themselves perfectly at home, for we believe
we can safely say that they have fell in
with friends.
We understand both these gentlemen
are well pleased with the appearance and
general character of our country. and that
unjustly, and only from want of knowl-
edge thereof, bad they formed prejudicial
opinions Of the same.
Col NEsMrH visits this place on matters
of business connected with his Office as
Superintendent, preparatory to entering on
its discharge. The Indian affairs Of Wash
ington Territory will be forthwith turned
over to him.

none be deferred from attending. He will

and back-doors of vile places, take the
advice of one who wishes to see you in
better society, and refrain from such
conduct, for troubles too serious to
mention often come of such course of
life But when You 60 abraod for

And all ye workers of iniquity, of

far beyond the blue sea. Remember

ance.

of them has not been told 1t is, per-
haps, one of the simplest, although not
the easiest mode one can adopt to
make his mark. 1t is, however, only
to fist the pick and shovel, and 60 forth

years | have beon scratching The face

it is a wonder There are, as | have
heretofore intimated, many other ways
in which one may make a mark of

to make one with a pick and shovel,
than to pass out OF eur earthly state of
existence without leaving some favor
able impression behind. Such is the
opinion of Sluice-Fork.

Class In Natural History,

Nihss III Natufm History.
A late number of Rnickerbocker contains
the following lucid examination of class in
Natural History:
Take your places. Subject of to-day's les
son?
Answer-The Young American
Question-Where is this animal found?
Answer-In Uppertendom.
Question-Can it exist in any but its native
air?
Answer-It cannot thrive, except where
civilization is overgrown.
Question-To what other species is it nearly
aed2
Answer-The monkey.
Queston-Which most resembles man?
Answer-Some Naturalists place the Young
American next to man, but by most it is con.
sidered inferior to the monkey.
Queston-Describe the Young American
Answer-Body and limbs exceedingly slight
head small and very erect, being light-the
coat smooth, and glittering in spots with the
brliancy of gold or gems-eyes usually mild
and gentle in expression, though when the ami
NAL is roused they are capable of furious
glare. A striking popularity is the long fur
or hair which with some quite covers the face,
with others, all but narrow space below the
eyes. Forehead low-teeth small, sharp and
very white.
Queston-Is the Young American danger
GUS?
Answer-Sometimes threatening, but sell
dom dangerous. They retreat at once when
attacked by man. The kind called fortune
hunters should, however, be excepted They
are keen-scented and cunning, stealthy in pur-
suit of prey, and cruel to their victims.
Queston-On what does the Young Ameri,
can subsst?
Answer-On "fathcr's money Va sub.
stance well known in Uppertendom.
Question-Has the Young American any
thing like the powers Of speech?
Answer-When irrtated it gives utterance
to a low sound, like "demb bore" or some
times "kussed bore" but it is usually quiet.
Question: Can this creature be made use
ful to man, in any way9
Answer-Some attempts to train him for
usefulness have been made, but in vain-they
have always resulted in the loss of individual
ity and have, therefore, been abandoned. Yet
it is valued as pet by ladies, who are often
fond Of the creature as a companion in their
walks, and they even give it place in their
drawing-room-merely playthng, however,
as it is of no use where protection is needed
Still, the Young American fills place in Up.
pertendom which no other animal in the known
world would occupy.
Question-Then what appears to be the oh.
ject Of its existence, if it cannot be rendered
useful9
Answer-The object of its existence is yet
to be discovered; although, as we are taught
that nothing is made in vain, there is doubtless
design in the existence of the Young Ameri-
can.
Queston-Is the Young American ever con-
founded with the True Americana
Answer-Never. The True American is
quite distinct species, and is not found in
Uppertendom.
Perfect lesson. The class may be seated.
