B|rOIsl Washington.

WASHINGToN June Attorney Gen
.ral Black. under INST uctions from the
President, has replied to the joint letter of
lie Ulah Judges, ON the subject of the
military force with which tie Court for
he secvid District was attended during
the Term recently held at Provo City.
He says it is very probable that the
Mormons have been .uily of crimes for
which they deserve the severest punish
menl; thai it is not intended bv Govern
menClo let aLy one escape against whom
the proper proofs can he produced. With
lla view the District A tornt.y has been
instructed to use all possible diligence in
bringing criminals OF every class aud of
all degrees to justice.
The usual and established modes of
dealing with public Offenders must be ex
haustrd before any others are adopted.-
On the whole, the President is very deci-
dedIyof the rpnion, first, that the Gov
e,noi uf the Territory alone has power To
issue requsition upon the Com manding
General Tor the VIII le or part ol the army;
second, than there WAS no apparent occa-
sion for the presence Of troops ut Provo;
third, thai il rescue of prisoners in Gus
tony had been attempted, IL was me du'y
of the Marshal, and not OF the Judge, TO
summon the force which might be neces-
sary 10 preventii; fourth, that the troops
ought not to have been sent 10 Provo with
"ul the concurrence OF the Governor, nor
kept there against his iemonsIrance; fifth.
t'at the disregard of these principles and
rules of action. has been in many ways
TX remely unfortunate.

that the negro as an inferior to the white.

complete suyection to the latter; that he
'is incapable of freedom and civilian ion
at the same !ime;" that emancipation
either general or partial, is to be resoIutely

when they become burden to society, TO
be re-enelaved. This retrograde move

A Girl over Clark willie EalIs!-A
Nl;ln IkGScucS Her.

In the afternoon of Yesterday (Sunday)
a young lady by the name of Wealthy Paul
attempted 10 cross over the outlet, just
above the Hackney Falls" When mid
way OF the temporary narrow structure,
thrown across the stream a few rods above
the falls to aid in constructing a subslan-
tial bridge, she became dizzy, and with a
scream fell into the rapid. water, which
bore her on, with the speed OF a race horse,
over the falls in the foaming. boiling
Whirlpool at their base. Her sister, who
happened to be present, Immediately gave
the alarm. ......... .-.-- 4. .
Among those who, congregated at the
spot was young man by the name of VIM.
Marks. resident of Clarksville. The
girl was still whirling IN the water at the
foot Of the falls, and the excitement had
become intense Young Marks remarked, /,
Wait, she will soon come out of that"
He Immediately prepared himself to leap
IN after her. Waiting till she was elected
from the whirl pooby the force OF the wa
ter, he jumped ln--with one arm he grasped
her and raised her head above water while
with the other he managed to swim to the
shore, where, by the help OF another per-
son, she was got up the steep bank and
conveyed to a house in the neigh borhood,
when prompt and vigorous aid restored
her to consciousness.
1t was noticed that while she was in the
water she did not entirely sink--her head
and feet being under wafer, while the rest
of her body flna,ed on the surface. This
was owing to her hoops. which not only
kept her from sinking, bat rendered valu-
able assistance to her rescuer in buoying
her up, while he wa5 conducting her to the
