Stole Clothes.

William Conner is the name of a gentle
man who in days not long gone by was q
denizen of Van Diemsn's Land, and who on
Saturday was arrested for appropriating o
coat and bundle made up of other articles
Of clothing, which have heretofore composed
q part of tho wardrobe of MIR. j. ID. Cushion.
When arrested. William was inclined to pre-.
varicate and was moreover indignant and
swore roundly that he could overcome in q
contest for superiority any descendant of the
feminine gender Of canine persuasion that
had The hardihood, either to arrest him or to
express suspicious of his good character
William was. however, inducted to the posi-
tion Of boarder at Careys Hotel. and after
being there for night Expressed a willing.
ness to 60 with Charley Durette and exhibit
the hiding place ofthe articles with which he
stands charged of stealing. This expression
Of sentiment having been communicated to
Durette. he called upon our friend Conner
and in pursuance Of the suggestion of that
gentleman, went with him to certain wood
ed locality near town. expecting that the
missing garments would there and then be
brought to light. but William proved recre.
ant to the declarations and confessions which
he had made, and refused to make to dis.
closure, so, perforce he was brought back to
the Caryan abode and there he still remains
William will undergo q preliminary exami.

being of moro than fifty dollars value.

The Colorado River.

The San Francisco Herald has received
from Capt johnson, Of the steamer "Gen-
eral Jessup," an interesting description of
his exploring trip up the Colorado river
The General Jessup" had no connection
with the government expedition under 1t,
Ives. but was fitted out entirely by the en-.
terprise Of her owners. who have two steam.
ers running on the Colorado, and ascended
the river to the distance Of three hundred
and twenty miles. and proved its navigabil-
ity for light draught steamers, as far as the
mouth Of Virgin river, which is within thirty
miles Of the nearest Mormon settlement.
The Herald states that. Lieutenant White.
Of the army, was despatched at the head Of
an escort to accompany Capt. johnson. for
the purpose of ascertaining the disposition Of
the river Indians toward our government.
and collecting such information relative to
the country above Fort Yuma. as might be
useful in military point Of view" 1t was
found that the Indians had been tampered
with by the Mormons. but it is thought that
the presence Of a steamer In the heart OF
their country will have beneficial infu.
enee over them.
The fact that the Colorado river is navi-
gable to the polluted sinks of Utah, will
greatly facilitate the civilization of that
territory, and add greatly to the import
ancs Of the country lying west Of the Rocky
Mountains. IL opens steam communication
with Utah, and adds large field for the en-.
tsrpriss aad energy Of our citizens. to our
present almost snbounded possessions. Its
effect can scarcely be appreciated at the
present time, but that il will conduce to the
speedy settlement Of the extensive valleys
Of Utah, aud forward those great national
msasures which are now engaging the at.
tion Of Congre 9, there can be no doubt.
