CARSON Every day more and
more develops the fact, says a Carson Valley
correspondent of the Alta, that Mormon and
Gentle las they style usl are too antagonistic
ever to assimilate. large population is
coming into our valleys to make permanent
settlement Families attracted by our eli
mate and the productive character of the soil
desire to settle here, but strong feeling ex
lists to keep their children, as well as our own,
away from the pernicious influence of Nor
mon example as well as precept With but
few exceptions, no confidence is felt in the
apostate Mormon. One is never sure but that
under the cloak of reformation he is secretly
working for the advancement of his own pc
culiar tenets, and acting the spy for the bene-
fit of the church and its leaders. Such state
of affairs renders US doubly anxious on ac-
count of our Territorial Government. There
can be but little, if any, doubt, but that Con.
gress has already acted in our behalf but un-
til we receive positive information we are in
a state of uncertainty by no means agreeable
to us.
The state of affairs Of our community has
been much improved by the organization OF
Peoples party. Previously crime ran riot
in our midst no man felt himself safe. The
torch of the incendiary might be applied to
the dwelling that sheltered the wife and
children of his bosom at any moment and nc
one be the wiser of the criminal; or the
peaceable, industrious settler shot down and
robbed whilst pursuing his daily labors.
The people of Honey Lake, annoyed and
harassed to an extent scarcely credible, met
in mass meeting, and adopted system Of
government which has been found to work SC
well that we have taken it here for the basis
of our organization. Our people, that is to
say our law abiding, respectable and respon
siOle citizens of Carson's, Jacks, and Eagle
valleys-of Gold Canon and Truckee Mea-
dows, have formed Grand Jury, composed
of the best men from each of these districts.
Their office is to take cognizance of crime
see that it is prevented if possible, or to
see it properly punished if committed. To
show you the happy and successful workings
of the system, l will state to you that in five
sessions they have held it has been found
necessary to order but one arrest A truly
gratifying state of affairs when compared
with those which heretofore obtained

The POLLOCK TEsTMoNIAL-An adjourned
meeting of the Press was held Tuesday even
ing, says the Alta, at which further proceed
ings were had in relation to the dramatic en-.
tertainment to be given for the benefit of the
family of the late Edward Pollock A COM
mittee was appointed, with power to perfect
such other arrangements as they may deem
necessary in the premises. The thanks of the
meeting were returned to the proprietors of
the Opera House and American Theater for
the liberal offer of their buildings, free of ex
pense, to the Committee. Maguire's was Sc
lected as the place, and the evening of the
9th January as the time when the entertain.
ment is to be given. We are pleased to learn
that the actors, American and foreign have,
with singular unanimity, volunteered to give
their services gratis. Such generous conduct
on their part we hope will be duly apprecia-
ted by all the friends of the deceased. The
testimonial promises to be very successful
one, and the entertainment as agreeable as
profitable.

DOMESTIC DIFFICULTIES in the Police

lodged and was struck on the small of her
back, from the effects of which she was then
suffering. Mrs. B. was interrogated as to her
habits of sobriety; declared she was not in
ebriated, nor was she in the habit of becom-
ing so. After leaving the stand she was call
ed to answer TO a charge preferred against
her by VIM Barry her husband, which set
forth that she was a common drunkard, and
that his domestic comforts were interrupted
| thereby. Barry was then called to testify
but under the law governing such matters
was not allowed to proceed. A female liv-
ing in the vicinity-on Sansome near Jack
son street-who keepsa drinking saloon, and
who said she never got drunk, although she
could drink considerable ale-and the bloom

Catherine was very often drunk, The case,
on the part of both, was evidently one of
those unfortunate ones, too often met with,
where that dsturber of domestic felicity,
King Alcohol, had reared his throne one the
family hearth. Both parties are young-in
the prime of life, and have an Interesting
family. His Honor gave them some good
advice, and told them go and sin no more.

Iowa Legislature.

The Senate have adopted rcsolu-
ton to adjourn on the 10th of March
by vote of 26 to I. Both branches
ofthe Legislatureare hurrying up their
work. Although no laws of generl
nature have been passed for some
days, still much work has been &C
complished. The following bills have
been under consideration in commit
tee Of the whole and are about ready
to be acted upon Bills to incorporate
the State Bank of Iowa, to establish,
Free Banking System, Revenue law
and School Law. The banking bills
will pass without opposition, but no
banking system, however, can go into
operation until first submitted to a
vote of the people and ratified by a
majority. 3 r..gt l..,
A bill has been introduced into the
Senate, lowering the rate of interest
to be charged upon delinquent taxes
to Is per cent, doing away with the
publication of the delinquent tax list,
and postponing tue sale Of land for
taxes until the first of November.
This may pass the Senate but cannot
pass the House.
1t is thought the remodeling Of coun
ty and town organizations will fail
The members are "many men of ma
ny minds and cannot unite upon any
feasible plan. 1t is said that the cod
ification of the laws connot he com
pleted for some time, and an adjourned
session will be the result. The Rcpubli
cans have been 10th to adopt this alter
native, and in order to avoid it, com
mission was appointed some two weeks
ago to codify the laws and prepare a
practice, to report to the Legislature
at its present sitting. But it has
already become apparent that they
cannot perform the work so rapidly
and an adjourned session is now being
talked of with some favor. If ois
should be agreed upon, which is not al
all unlikely, the prescrh session will
close about the middle Of March
otherwise, not before the latter part o
April.

Remarkable Change.

One of the coolest things we have
seen in the last dozen years is the fol-
lowing extract from an editorial in the
Dubuque Tribune. A most sudden
rcvulsion in feeling must have attack
ed Mr.. Hackley--so sudden, indeed,
that it is absolutely disgusting. We
have never believed much in the etlica-
cy of deatl-bcd repentance; and beg
leave, therefore, to pay but little at
tention to the refurmatory gasps of
the dying Tribune
We have never heard any objection TO the
election of Gov. Grimes to the United States
Senate, other than the simple one of locality
We know him to be one of the most learned
and intellectual men of the State. His dcvo-
ton to the Republican cause has never been
questioned His labors for it have been long
continued and arduous. and his influence upon
its prosperity has been marked and genial.
This paper has stood by his side and fought
with him the battles of freedom, since the
day of the birth of the Republican organization
in Iowa, and it would be strange indeed, even
with our views of policy and justice in relation
to the Senatorial question, did We not feel a
thrill Of pride and joy at his success.

which we make some extracts this
week is one of the most finished and
scholarly productions of the kind we
have seen for long time. A cores.
pondcnt of the Burlington Hawkeyc
thus alludes to it:
The close of his speech was beauti-
full, and on taking his scat there were
three distinct attempts at applause.
He had hardly taken his seat when
Senators Seward, Hale, Chandler and
others, approached him and gave him
their hands. Your other Senator,

speech, and was an attentive listener
