N-lNuUMANITY. "A young man,
respectfully connected at the East and whose
father is an extensive and we'll known man
ufacturer in New York. some time since ar
rived in this State, went to the mines, ex-
pended all his means, and recently arrived
in this city, where, with determination to
earn an honest living, he engaged at any en-
ployment that offered. Meantime, being so
reduced in circumstances, he slept wherever
he generally in vacant houses. Lat
terly-probably in consequence of his man
ner Of liying-he was seized with paralysis,
from which he has not yet recovered On
Friday evening he was crossing X street, on
Front street, and making misstep fell into
the mud. Parties in the neighborhood (who
had, probably, been frequently in the same
position) instead of assisting the young man
to rise inquired, in brutal way, where he
got his liquor. After several attempts, the
young man succeeded in rising, and proceed
ed to a shed on the Levee, where he remain
ed, without attention, until Sunday morn
ing, when lie told his story, and stated that
he had cousin in the city, whom he named.
A gentleman who heard his story inquired
and discovered the cousin, who removed the
unfortunate to his residence. 1t is remark
able that a person should remain in desti-
tute condition in so public place in this
city without some effort being made to re
lieve him. Although this is not the first case
in which such Indifference has been manifest
ed in this locality we trust it may be the
last.-Sdc. Union, gesterddy

News from Salt Lake.

The Valley Tan, of Dec. 10TH publishes
about two columns of extracts from dscours-
es delivered by Mormon leaders, and from
the Deseret News which appeared during
the year 1856 and 1857. They contain the
most reasonable sentiments uttered at that
time, threats against the army and defiance
of the government of the United States.
Our design, says the Tan, is to reflect back
the peculiaritics Of Mormonism, as taught
from its recognized patriarchs, prophets and
counselors. In the language of the immor-
tai Yellowplush let it "cirk elate"-and we
will add, there are a few more left.
Col. William Rogers, "Uncle Billy" an old
Californian, has recently fitted up in superior
style the large building opposite Messrs.
Miller, Russell IL Co. S store, for the purpose
of hotel.
We have heard, says the Tan that orders
have been issued to various members of the
Nauvoo Legion to arm and equip themselves.
1t is not the season for buffalo or antelopes
and the canyons are full of snow and too
cold to pursue grizzlies, while the hot slrinr
lake, with its ducks and geese, is not worth
such powder-what's the matter. We hone
Gen. Johnston and the camp will not be
frightened-we are not the least "skeered"
here.
Brigham Young, Heber C. Kimball, and
General ~ Wells, were present in the Uni
ted States District Court, December 9TH.
The Tan says Brigham was summoned as a
witness, and the whole party conducted
themselves with propriety.

THE 6 AMBLING DENs OF WAsmNGToN.-The
Washington correspondent of the Philadel-
phia North American makes the following
serious statements:
"These gambling resorts have increased
fearfullv at Washington within the last ten
years, and it is so notorious that they have
done more to demoralize Legislation than all
the other debasing and corrupting influences
which have been brought to bear upon weak,
venal, or needy members of Congress was
deeply impressed by the silent but eloquent
witnesses of this fact, when the drawers of
Pendleton's desk were opened, yesterday, and
numerous bills relating to schemes before
Congress, were exposed to public view The
misery and wretchedncss and degradation in
iictcd upon men and families by these hels
are appalling, and even the imperfect disclo-
sures which have reached me- accidentally,
exhibit state of morals in Congress which
would astonish the country, if exposed
Some of these gamblers, and Others who are
concerned as capitalists with them, are open
ly employed as lobby agents, from their sup
posed ability to control votes through obliga-
tions incurred by members, and the fact is
one of common town talk, that their tables
are the daily resort of large class of such
voters, in preference to the hotels. This
thing has assumed that serious shade when
publicity becomes duty; for, strange as it
may SEEM the influence has so ramihed that
it was feared at one time, in the early stages
of the Kansas struggle, last session, that the
scale would be turned by turn of the screw
upon particular members who were known to
be in the power of the gamblers. 1t may
we'll he asked where are we drifting when
such things can be, and go unrebuked !"

SAN Francisco STATION HoUsE.-The Ma
tional says:
We were glad to hear last evening, that
twenty pairs of blankets had been furnished
for the use of the temporary inmates of the
city prison. This will certainly better their
condition, but there are not half enough for
the many who are locked up for night or
SO. They should, as we have previously in
timated, not only have a sufficiency of ban
kets, but also mat of some kind to keep
their bodies from the cold and damp asphal
tum floor, or, as the Chief suggests, they
might be furnished with a kind of camp bed,
which could be triced up to the walls during
the day time, and when the weather allows
of it, taken out upon the Plaza and dried
They should have something to keep them
from the damp, which, in the city prison, is
liable to sow the seeds of consumption and
other diseases in all who stop there single
night The place is bad enough any way,
and we think humanity demands that their
health should be looked after At the next
meeting of the Board of Supervisors, we
hope they will take the matter in hand at
once, and examine the Station House thor
oughly. For our own part, we wouldn't
be locked up there twenty four hours for a

CURIOUS BAPTIsM-Joseph Peterson has,
for a long time been suspected, by Elizabeth
Brown and Elizabeth Heiser, who keeps a
lager bier cellar on Pacific street, of attempt
ing to induce some of the German dancing
girls to break their contracts and assert
their American Independence. Last night
Joseph went down as usual into the cellar
and commenced talking to the girls as usual
when slapl dash came the contents of a
larger bier pot and of water jug upon his
devoted head. Joseph by no means liked
such christening, so off he started for the
Police office, covered with froth and doubt
less filed with-Gnger and sent officers to
arrest the two females who had thus uncere.
moniously ducked him. They leave a gold
watch to answer for their! appearance in the

P. M.--There is immense excitement
in the streets. The Vigilance Com.
mittee have arrested F. A. Lumsden
of the Picayune, and he was Kept in
confinement several hours, charged
with being drunk and disorderly a
round the Vigilance camp. The
Mayor is at the vigilance rooms, hav-
ing placed himself under their pro-
lection, being afraid Of his life if he
leaves. No attack has been made
by the mob yet. Col. Christy has
Withdrawn as leader Of the movement
on account of the legal position of
the Vigilance Committee. The Re-.
corders are engaged in swearing in
! the Special Police. All citizens are
invited to join.

or has issued proclamation revok-
ing the power of Recorders to ap-
point special police. The citizens
are disguised with the Mayors vascil-
lation. The streets are excited
The Vigilance are still certifying their
position, Lafayette square is still

proaches. The Recorders have ap-
pointed 800 special police; amongst
them are some of the worst men in
the city. They refuse to give up
authority, although revoked by the
Mayor. They have arrested several
men known to belong to the Vigi-
lance Committee.
New ORLEANS. May 18th, 9 A. NJ.

ing his life guaranteed, proceeded to
the St. Charles Hotel, where he was
limpeached, and Fl. M. Summers,

place.
The old police was recognized un-
| der Jacques. A. 7. Turner and G. B.
