IL A California correspondent gives dis.
couraglng accounts Of matrimonial pros
poets in the Golden State. He says:
Il consider it my duty to state boldly
that the matrimonial! market is shockingly
dull. The time was when women, and all
other dry goods. went off rapidly, at even
the very INCEST figures. But now, even
young and tender candidates 60 off slowly,
and as for the older and tougher ones,
there's no more show for them than there is
for an honest administration of the govern

FIGHr WITH Rock RIVER WnpcAT.-A
Janesville correspondent gives us an account
of desperate fight which occurred near
that place few days since, between hun
ter named John Weber, and ferocious
wildcat, whose name is unknown" Weber
and few others-all amateur srortsmen-
were hunting for rabbits in the woods skirt
ing the banks OF Rock river Weber was
some distance from his companions. Sup
posing he had burrowed rabbit on the
top of the bluff. which was there about one
hundred feet above the water, he procured
stick and undertook to dislodge the game
by the punching process. His efforts were
too successful, for, instead of a rabbit a
formidable looking wild cat sprang out of
the hole and pitched in for fig.t. Weber
not knowing the nature of his antagonist,
was taken at a disadvantage. He had no
knife and the varmiDt's teeth and claws
were sharp. "Mein Colt! du peest der ia
der Won all rabbits!' he exclaimed, as the
cat made leap for his throat. The bank
was very steep, and at the first onset Web
er lost his footing, and hunter and wildcat
rolled in rough and tumble embrace to
the bottom. The wildcat, being the spryest,
got the advantage, and the way he bit and
scratched was a caution to all ven,uresome
rabbit Hunters Weber at first tried to get
away from his antagonist but found there
was no back out in that battle. There was
no way but to fight it ont. 1t was battle
for life and death, and the cat was most at
home in that sort of contest The hunter
gave the varmint few well-put "eye
openers with his fist; but his catship soon
put stop to that game by selling Weber's

With the other hand he then tried to throt-
tie the monster. but soon found his claws
were in the way. Alter rolling down the
bank distance Of about ninety feet from
where the fight commenced, the hunter sue
ceeded IN getting uppermost Of his antagon-
ist. when he hastily halloed Murder" This
brought one Of his companions to the rescue
who, crawling down the steep bauk, placed
his rifle to the varmint's head and made
hole through it. The wildcat then gave up
beat.
The hunter was thus released from the
ferocious beast, except that the teeth of the
latter were still clenched upon his hands
and it was with some difficulty that the
hold was released 1t was found that Web.
er had been bit through the hands tive times
besides numerous severe scratches upon his
body. The wounded parts Immediately

Tho Prospects Of tho Utah Expedition

The latest advices from Utah-up
to the middle of Februrary-thc sub
stance of which we gave in our Sund-
days issue arc important.
Eight hundred and forty Of the de-
ludcd followers of Brigham Young
percciying the foolhardincss Of his
course, in resisting and setting at de.
fiance, the government of the United
States, and the ruin which must newt
ably result, have demanded their pass.
ports and set out for California.
1t is also stated that there are a
large additional number, dissatisfied
with the course pursued by the Proph-
ct, who will, as matters grow more
threatening, desert the standard Of
their leader.
The selfreliancc which has hereto.
fore characterized the actions and proc
Iamations of Brigham Young will be
materially diminished, by this proof
of a want of confidence, on the part OF
his organization, in him, and in the
Mormon God-to whom he frequent
ly refers in his sermons.
Brigham, finds himself in situation
where he is experiencing gradual
letting down. from the prophet whose
word is law and whose slightest intima-
ton is an oracle, to plain, simple
Brigham Young, q -cowardly, boasting,
hypocritical scoundrel.
A single defeat or rebuff at the
hands Of the little army of Col. Johns
ton, will lessen Lis numbers materially.
The non-iultillment of the repeated
promises. which he has made to his ia
natical followers, of a Divine interfear-
ance, to discomfiit their enemies. will
induce hundreds to lay down their
arms and submit to the government of
the United States.
ne single instance Of the inability
of the God Of sensuality, whom they
have been taught to worship, to afford
them supernatural aid, will disenchant
numbers Of deluded men, who are
confidently expecting fire, or food, or
hail stones from heaven. or chariots of
fire, to fight Tor them.
Their eyes will be opened to see
the futility Of resistance and also to
the enormity of the fraud which has
been practiced upon them by their
leaders. This view of the matter must
have become deeply impressed upon
the mind Of Brigham Young.
He is a man totally devoid of all
principe ana q most unmitlgated hyp-
ocrite, yet he is withal, man of mind;
and although he still keeps bold face
on the matter, he cannot but see that
his power is on the wane. This juno
ture may be considered peculiarly ia
vorable for the advancement of the
pacific negotiations which the admins
tration has thought proper to adopt.
The proposition which Mr.. Buchan-
an has authorized the messenger now
in the city Of St. Louis, to make, to
settle the difficulties, without resort
to arms, by an unconditional return to
allegiance, will, we think, be seized BY
the Mormon authorities with eager
ness.
In any event, we do not think. that
they will hazard q battle, unless the
odds are very greatly in their favor.
In our opinion, the difficulties will
either be settled by negotiations; or
the Utah expedition will find Salt Lake
City heap Of aahea, and the Normons,
