attracts more Immediately our present
attention to l-.la.
"the proper study of mankInd.',
tbs not our intention to discuss the
merits Of the varied opinions assumed
BY Mr.. Floyd since his installation II
the Great Cabinet.
4 would be improper, perhaps, for
Us TO say that he has assumed powers
which did not belong to him,sn Yet,
although We make no great precautions
70 erudition u military science and
army regulations, we could not forego
the pleasure Of inquiring;-who or
what is the Secretary Of War?
Our first Impressions (which are sell
dom wrong } may in this case be pre-
mature. Yet We had an idea that Mr..
Floyd glanced into false mirror, and
mistcok himself for somebody else.
We were under the impression, the
President being commander-in-chief,
that the Secretary Of War was
simply what his title denotes. On this
point, il We are mistaken, wo would be
thankful for correction. We have
examined the laws; have perused the
statutes Of our own Congress; We have
inquired Of those who have known tho
routine Of European discipline; and
what is the unvarying answcrp The
SECRETARY or War, with all his pre-
tensions and nonsense, is q simple war
clerk. True, We may have imbibed
strange notions from foreign lands.
Bat we are on the stool Of COR
.rection. Il the Secretary Of War Is, |
in reality, the commander-in-chief OF
the Army, We are slightly in default.
OF course, allowances are made in
the passing periods Of our history.
wherein his name may have been intro
duced as one Of the lending actors in
the great national theatricals.
Professionally and ALPHABETICALLY we
had but little at stake; for we are but
careless as to the fashionable notions
ef the world. Had we been in the situ-5
alton Of some learned and epauletted
gentlemen, and cared anything for our
position, We would have respectfully
invited Mr.. Floyd to adopt Mormopism
for awhile, and to mind his own bust
ness. As the matter rests, we have
simply to suggest to the gentleman
From Virginia that he lacks sufficient
stamina to carry his political burthen.
The laws Of his country provided q
commanding officer for its own Army;
ana provided i at the same time with a
clerk. Mr.. Floyd mistook his calling,
ana dreamed that ne was Commander
instead Of Secretary. What q delight

teaching hlrn. But heroes in battle

Much has been said about halls and
their surroundings; we we're inclined %
be among the number Of those Who
condemned wholesale the stores, halls
and messuages Of our Friends on East
Temple Street, and were nearly ready
to damn them oil as usual But we
must, as honesty is our motto, confess
that amidst all the surroundings Of
conyiyial society, we have not vet
found in Utah place where better
order was preserved, the strict discipline
Of society more critically guarded, and
everything conducted ON more proper
and moral principles than at the indie

Tine NEW CHARfER BY the authority

From he Land Commissioners Report

r From ne Land Commissioners Report
In Utah the surveying operations have
been suspended since the Spring Of lS5I.
The late Surveyor General abruptly left
the country, and his functions were
terminated S0th September, 1887. Con-
siderable time having elapsed since COM
parative quiet has been restored in the
Territory, il was deemed proper BY the
Executive TO resume there the surveying
organization. Accordingly. in May last
Col. Samuel G. Stambaugh was appoint
ed the Surveyor General, and left for
Great Salt Lake City on the end August
last. u.
Before leaving, he was furnished with
the necessary Instructions for his govern
ment in the discharge Of his duties.
Among other requirements, he was d.
rected to receive the archives from the
Governor, to whose care they had been
committed BY this Office: to collect furni-
ture and other property belonging to the
Suryeyor-G Generals Office at Salt Lake
City, and reorganize the Office for future
service. As it was ascertained that the
surveys Of the public lands in Utah had
been extended further than there had
been any actual demand, the Surveyor
General was instructed, after reorganiz-
ing his Office, to dispatch into the field
faithful and competent examiners to
ascertain the truth or falsity Of certain
against the correctness Of
former surveys, and report the result.
We have not at this time such data as
will justify US in recommending addi-
tional surveys within any given time in
the Territory. but in order TO open the
way for immigration and settlement, it is
recommended that the Territory be or
ganized into land district, and that the
benefits Of the preemption laws be ex-
tended over it. A semi official commu-
nication Of the 2yth September, and an
official communication Of the 9th Octo-l
Der, 1859, from Surveyor General STAN.
baugh, at Great Salt Lake City. having
reached this Office, were laid before you,
under date Of Nov. 4, 1859. The former
was written three days after his arrival
at his destination. They show that all
the official archives in the possession Of
Gov. Cumming had been delivered over
to the Surveyor. General, and he was
proceeding with the reorganization Of the

The New Court OF Hus,inex,


The reader will find in our local column
a list of criminal cases to be brought before
the Spring term OF the Circuit Court, to COM
mence on Monday, 9th of April. This list
embraces twenty-six cases, two of which are
for murder and several for stabbing and shoot
Ing. This will occupy the Court for a long
period of the term and this is the kind OF
business which has so seriously interfered
with the trial of civil causes, to the injury OF
parties. The new Court Of Hastings, author
lied by the act Of the Legislature, the
people Of Richmond are called upon to accept
or reject on the 4th day of April. This new
Court, if the people accept the law, will have
the power to sit for twenty days each month,
and will have original jurisdiction of all such
criminal cases and matters arising within the
territorial limits Of its authority, (wi:hin the
city and one mile outside its corporate lines, }
are now cogniZable in circuits. This will
relieve the city very much It will settle
promptly the civil causes much delayed
now, and will dispose of criminal prosecu-
tons with the proper expedition which is de-
mapded in justice to accused persons and by
the ends of justice itself. We cannot doubt
that the citizens will adopt the law. Should
they do SO, and the proper man be elected to
the new Judgeship, this new Court will be OF
great benefit to the community.

When the subject is again renewed, we hope
that some other consideration may enter into
the discussion than that merely Of how much
money can be gotten by cutting the goose that
lays golden eggs. We hope that the form in
which they are taxed will be dsbated-that 1t
may be seriously asked, why are merchants
licensed. and why are they separated from
other citizens and made to pay five dollars for
other mems one. These are questions that
ought to be frankly, fairly and honestly con-
sidered. Those who have the power to refuse
to listen to their demands for justice, and to
Cypress them if they chose, ought to act at
least justly, if not magnanimously. at Is
