The Lobby" at Albany appears to have added
the crime of murder to its other enormtes. Senator
DOherty, from New York city, aged thirty -four years
died just at the close of the session 1t is asserted
that he fell victim to plot of certain lobby men
interested in the Albany Bridge Bill, who desired to
keep him away fromhis duties and seduced him into
state of prolonged intOxioation for that purpose.
The Albany Times says:
"Whsn he sought to fee them, they followed.
When he gained refuge in his room, and locked his
door, they pursued, gained access by the window,
and drugged-aye, drugged him-pois onedhi with
liquor, siekened him, killed him. From their pur-
and spplisnees-enemies in fact but friends in
disguise-he never recovered
1--WE hope and urge that an investigation may be
made in regard to the death of Senator Doherty. We
charge that he was killed by the infamous and sys-
tematic appliances of parties favoring the Albany
Bridge BiIl-delberately, Systematically murdered,
by crew of unhung Williams. Truly is it not hor-
rible. The proof lies all around Congress Hall-did
lie all around the Legislature"

Mr.. Ready was elected to Congress about the tine

stitutional Missouri restriction. That measure was
in every seLse, injurious to the South 1t denied to
her the equality Of right in the territories, TO which
she is entitled, and affixed burning stigma SO far
as it was in the power of Congress so to do, upon
her institutions and her name 1t was wholly UE-
authorized by the Constitution. In momen. of
weakness and excessive confidence in the pledges of
her INSCRIPTIONS enemies she consented to the res

ST. LOUIS, April 27.-Accounrs from various pri,

dtiou Of affairs in Utah materially different from

that there is not a Symptom of hostile demon
stration the part Of the people, that people are
subpenae1 as Witnesses, then arrested and placed
in charge of the troops for safe keeping, that the
narshal Of Utah notified Judge Cradelbaugh that
he was prepared to take charge of al the prisoners
accused of crime; that he had safe Jail, and would
increase his bond TO any extent that the judge re-
quired; that the Grand Jury was just prepared to
make a presentmentt whsn they were discharged,
and that he protested against the action Of the
Court.
It is al.o asserted that Governor Cummings, Sec.
rotary Harnett, Prosecuting Attorney wilson, and
DR.. Forney were opposed to aud indignant at the
course pursued by Sinclair and Cradlebaugh. The
Deseret NeteS published memorial from the people
TO Gov Cummings, attempting to prove the illegal
ity Of CradebRugh holding court atProvo severely
eriticising the Judges course and accusing him Of
setting aside the civil authorities of the errtory in
employing troops to execute the orders Of the court
without valid reason clearly Indicating disregard
for the latest expressed policy of the AdministTa
