DEFALcATIoNs IN TULARE CouNTy.-The
Grand Jury Of Tulare county have rendered
a report that the Sheriff Of that county. w.
g. Poindexter, is detaulter to the amount
of s66l, and J. S. Meckley, administrator of
the estate of w. Dill, to the amount of
1915. The jury reports further, that,
the books of Treasurer and Auditor are kept
in very improper manner, and it is impos-
sibe to tell wether the Treasurer has ever had
had a settlement. The Treasurer has received
50, 1000, which, so far as the books show, have
never been paid in the treasury. The jury
also report :hat the records of the Probate
Court are very carelessly kept.

Alfalfa.

Last week we took occasion (says the
Petauma Jouanal Of the 18th ult) to eau
ton farmers against planting wild mustard
for Alfalfa seed. AS we are firmly convin-
ced that the alfalfa is by far the best grass
known for countries subjected to long dry
seasons, we feel strong desire to see it gen.
orally introduced into the State, and will,
therefore, under the present aspect of affairs,
recommend the following extract from a
communication to the Alto, signed a
"Marysvlle Farmer" ITO the careful consider
alton of the farmers Of Sonoma County.
Il have been grower of Alfalfa for the
last five years, and from my experience do
not hesitate to say that no greater boon has
ever been conferred on the California farmer
than by the introduction of this seed, have
purchased it every year at the different seed
stores In San Francisco and sometimes have
found it more dirty than Others. Cheap seed
has been offered me but that never threw
money away upon. Good seed is easily re-
cognized: mustard large round seed; Alfalfa
is not half the size and kidney-shaped. NY
crop never failed me, and now have as clean
a pasture and feed as many stock as any
man in the State from the same number of
acres.
The first year, on sowing, l adopted the
Chilean plan; that is sowing with my wheat
crop. was not sparing of my seed; it came
up with the wheat, weak and ankev, and
was harvested with the crop. The ensuing
spring my Alfalfa came up stoolng out; and
covering the ground well.
The second year sowed crop aione, it
came up as it always does, weak and lanky,
and with it some weeds, and mustard radish-
es. DC, but | did not care for that; before
they seeded moved all down; the weeds per-
ished, Icing ANIMALS, but my Alfalfa started
afresh, stooled out wonderfully, and by the lat
ter part of summer in the fall, and during the
winter had continued capital crops. This
was fed off, The next year the ground was
matted with clover and has been so ever

public confessions of them sins to five min

apted to the meredians of New York. If
confessions decently complete are desired the

PoL1r1cAL PULp1rs.-Itis is an unprecedented
and lamentable fact says the Journal@ COM
merce that two Territories Of this Union are
now in rebellion against the supreme auth
orty of the nation. 1t is still more la
mentabe that the rebellion in one of these
Territories is countenanced and encouraged
by men at the East and North who claim to
be good citizens. Indeed, without this
encouragement, the rebellion never had ex-
listed. The teachings from the pulpit and
the press, counseling resistance to law, con-
temning the decisions of the Courts, and vir-
tually proclaiming that man is his own law
giver have not been lost upon the people,

Nh. Ed TOR: We understand that Judg

LACE, Esqrs., will serve their constituents
in the capacity Of County Court Judges, if
they will elect them at the August election.
We believe that three better men could
not be selected by the voters Of Howard

Judge Jackson has already served The
people long and ably in that capacity, while
the other two are cid citizens of long estab.
lished regulations for integrity and capabil-
ity.
There is no Office Of higher responsible
~ and more sacred trust within the gift Of
the people. They are the legal guardian,
Of the orphan and the widow. We should
be careful in whose hands We place the
sacred trust.

The Two Headed Girl.

By an advertisement in our columns it
will be seen that this most wonderful Of all
Phenomenas is to be exhibited in our city,
Thursday afternoon and Friday forenoon of
next week. The announcement we feel
sure will be hailed with delight BY many Of
our readers, for SO much has been said OF
her in the different papers Of the day, that
a grea. desire exists 10 witness her. So
incredible did the first announcement of
her appear, that we were disposed TO re-
gard it as humbug, but we are now fully
satisfied, that all that is claimed Of her Is
true, and that beyond the possibility of a
doubt she is not only the greatest but most
interesting curiosity of this or any other
age. This in all probability will be the
only opportunity our citizens will have of
seeing her. and they should, by all means,
take advantage Of it.

Letter from a Randolph Democrat.
Correspondence Of the Times.

Correspondence Of the Times.
RANDOLPH County, June l3, 1858.
Mr.. EDrroR:-I have been faithful vo-
ter in the democratic party in Randolph
county for at least 81 years. 1t used to be
the practice of the democratic party of old
Randolph to call township meetings and ap-
point delegates to meet in convention at the
county seat, 10 faithfully carry out the wish
es of majority of the party in the seiec-
ton of candidates; more recently it has
been the practice to call mass meetings OF
the party. where all could be heard, and
each voter at liberty to nominate the man
of his choice; in either case, men Of the
party, whose long service and known devo-
ton to democratic principles were selected,
and not two months or two year old
More recently still, on the 4th Monday in
June last, great mass meeting Of the par
ty was called, large number attended, ap-
paren,ly anxious, as had been their practice,
and was their right, 10 participate in the
proceedings. On being called to the Court
House, what must have been their feelings,
as Independent men, having equal rights
with Governors, 10 hear Mr.. Wilcox an
nounced, as their candidate, without calling
for an expression of public opinion, or even
appointing a committee 10 recommend sui-
able person 10 their consideration. Was it
democratic? Was it fair? Yet the RAN
dolph Citizen endorses Mr.. Wilcox as the
weli-ascertained choice of the democratic
party, when it is equally as well-ascertain-
ed that not one in len of the party knew
that he ever gave democratic vote; and l
doubt very much whether majority Of the
party even knew Mr.. Wilcox. But some
thing must be done TO catch "Old Line
Wings" and Wilcox has been one, and if
we call for an expression in mass meeting,
he will be defeated We will announce
tina, he is the choice of the party, and they
will believe it But the editor of the Cai-
zen, thinking the Wilcox bal. not sufficient,
in his issue of last Saturday, nearly breaks
down the wall of partition between the Old
Line Wings and Democrats. and says in
substance, that the issues that divided them
have been settled BY the adoption of the
principles commended for by the Wing
party!
What think you Of that, Old Line Demo-
Gratis? If such is the fact, why not give
them all the honor and adopt their name?

Arrival of the Salt Lake Mail.

The Troops in possession Of The ciiy-Brig-
ham Young at Prorost- Probable re-
turn ofhe .uormoms 10 The City COndi-
tion of the Troops, Roads, &c.
The ST. Joseph Gazette of the 18th, says:
The Salt Lake Mail arrived yesterday, hav-
ing left Salt Lake City on the 26rh ult., in
charge of Mr.. James, making the whole
trip in nineteen days. Mr.. James reports
the roads between this city and the Platte
crossing as being IN horrible condition,
but from the other side OF the Platte as
excellent. Gen. Johnston and command
were entering the suburbs of The city as
the mail party were leaving IT. Col. Hof-
man and two companies Of troops were still
at Fort Bridger. Capt. Marcy was with
Gen. Johnston's command. General Har-
ney and command were at O'Fallon's
Bluffs, forty miles below the crossing Of
South. The expressman, with orders to
Gen. Harvey from the War Department,
was met about six miles from that officers
camp. Maj. Emory's command were at
Scotts's Bluffs. The Governor had sent
word 10 the Mormons who were still at
Provost 10 resume possession Of their pro-
perty and improvements. 1t was general
ly believed at the city that the Mo-mons
would receive Gov. Cummings communi-
cation in the spirit it was intended, and
that they would return and resume their
usual occupations. The military arm of
the law is now in all probability useless
there, except as an auxiliary in forcing ODE
dence 10 the civil authorities. The in
dictments found by the grand jury against
many, il not all, of the principal men and
elders in the church will, no doubt, receive
the attention ofthe Judiciary, and the offend
ers, if the charges are substantiated, be
punished TO the full extent of the law. 1t
is 10 be hoped that Brother Brigham, Heber
Kimble, and others, who have urged the
Mormons TO openly rebel against the Gov
eminent, in the award Of punishments, will
receive their just deserts. This, however,
may be more difficult 10 accomplish than is
generally supposed, for they will be tried
by jury composed probably Of Mormons,
who will not scruple TO acquit them, no
matter how positive the proof may be of their
guilt.
Mr.. James reports the Indians on the
route peaceable and quiet. The streams on
the route are still high, but falling. The
grass is excellent.
