VIRGINIANs IN A SCRAPS.

Two former residents of Virginia CITY,
named Rosenbaum and Leopold Newman
have got themselves into very serious
difficulty at Salt Lake City. and which Is
likely to cost them very dearly before they
get out of il. The defendants have been
CARVING on the butchering business in
Salt Lake, and about two weeks ago. just
abon, dark one evening, they drove lot
of nineteen beef cattle into their slaughter
pen. On the way through the city, several
residents recognized some Of the cattle as
belonging to them, and accordingly drove
them out of the herd. An officer went to
Rosenbsum and inquired as to where he
bought the cattle. and was answered that
oke Henry Miller" had sold them to
him. We would state that this Henry
Miller must be ubiquitous, as a man Of
that name was arrested in San Francisco
last Tuesday for stealing watches, jewelry,
etc. The officer at Salt Lake requested
that the cattle should not be slaughtered
until further inquiry was made concern
ing them-which the butchers agreed TO.
But, the same night, nearly all of them
were killed; their horns chopped up;
their ears mutilated on the hides, and the
hides themselves taken 10 Rosenbaum's
tannery and salted down in u vat-all Of
which was developed by the evidence in
subsequent examination of Rosenbaum
and Newman. charged with stealing. At
last accounts, the examination was still
going on, and was being published in the
Salt Lake Telegraph. One man, Lorenzo
Petit, had already commenced an action
to recover $1,000 for damages from the
defendants for killing his cattle; and quite
a number of others were preparing to sue
them. Between the damages and the
criminalty of the stealing, Rosenbaum
and Newman are likely to be severely
sweated" by the Mormons. Indeed,
the cattle-stealing business has been car
ried on to such an extent for year past
in that vicinity, that on the detection of
these parties the Mormons were so iu-
censed that there was strong talk of hang
ing them by a mob. Both these men,
Rosenbaum and Newman. used TO live in
Virginia City-and Newman, some years
ago, resided in Auburn. California, and
was engaged in the clothing business.

INTERESTING DOCUMENT.

Some time since, there resided in this
town one c. Lee, blatant secessionist,
who, with others, endeavored to secretly
organize company to join the Confeder-
ate army. These sweet-scented scoundrels
had u " chummy" who was soldier at
Fort Churchill; and on the strength OF
his acquaintance, and under pretense of
LOYALTY, the crowd bummed around the
Fort, eating Government rations, until
the chummy" was drummed out of the
service. This broke up the nest, and the
last that was heard of Lee, he was in the
Boise country. Before leaving Gold Hill,
Lee deposited his pocket:book and papers
with a citizen Of this place. That citizen
having retired from business, overhauled
the papers to see if there was anything
among them worth preserving, when he
came across the following interesting doc
ument, and handed it to US as a literary
curiosity. 1t is drawn up with great
pains. interlarded with ornamental chiro-
sraphy, German text, and all that sort of
thing, looking like burlesque on the
Declaration of Independence. We pub
lish it perbatim-giving all possible pub
licity to the record of Messrs. N. Kelly,
C. Lee and NJ. George Cayce. The names
of the other citizens of South Fork of

appear. The document is not signed, and
is probably only copy. preserved by MIR.

"Wo unto him, saith God, that grinds
the face of the poor. Wo unto England,
then; the day of reckoning is coming:
The avenger of blood is on her track, and
bitterly will she curse the day when she
made Ireland her enemy. I sympathize
with your people, and shall hail with de-
light the day when your glorious Repuo-

when, free, she stands up in her might

How WE STAND THE ExPENsB.-In a
speech to his constituents recently, Mr..
Golden, English NJ. 2. said of our finan-
ces: People exclaim about the American
expenditure. A friend of mine told me
the other day, that the Americans were
expanding two million dollars day, and
asked me what / thought of it. l said l
thought it was rather more; but having
regard to the depreciation of American
currency and the present rate Of exchange,
it was very near the amount which Glad
stone in time of peace was drawing from
our own country; and mind you, as long
as the people of England are apt to think,
with that comfortable complacency of
theirs, that they can only go abroad to find
objects of pity they will always be per-
suaded that they are cleverer, happier, and
are doing every thing better than their
fellows. Why is it that the American
States have laughed to scorn the predic-
tons of all our financial magnates and our
writers on finance, who told them that
they could not 60 on with the war for six
months without coming to Europe for q
loans 1t is because the American people
have never allowed their government to
make war expenditure in time of peace.
That's the whole secret; they were spend
ang for the purposes of their government
from fifteen to seventeen millions sterling
per annum when the war broke out, and
the savings then made enabled them to go
through this terrific strain. Take ten mil
lions of savings for forty years, add to ten
millions of, savings for forty years COM
pound interest, snd you will see what a
fabulous amount it comes to. This is
what America did. w

somewhat of his excitement. we again

The IMPORTANCE OF WnNISeroN AND
CHARLEsroN.--An idea of the importance,
to the rebels. of the ports of Wilmington
and Charleston, and the terrible blow that
their capture inAicts upon the rebel cause,
may be gathered from the fact that Mr..
Trenholm, the Confederate Secretary of
the Treasury, asserts. in special report to
the rebel Congress, that there have been
imported at. the ports of Wilmington and
Charleston. since October 20, 1854, $685.

ChnrleaIOM.

The Stockton Independent thus forcib!y
utters its sentiments with regard to tie
birthplace Of treason" .....,
They foolishly thought to emulate the
example of the Russians i'll the destruc-
ton of Moscow, forgetting in their mad
ness that what was in the case of the Mus
covites the. wisest and most profound
policy, is, with reference to the destruc-
ton of Charleston, very poor and silly
burlesque of patriotism. The Russians
burned Moscow; first, to destroy the
magazines and supplies of the French
army second, to rob them of shelter
against terrible winter and third, to
force them out into the inhospitable coun-
try, where cold, Cossacks and hunger
would soon turn their victorious advance
into desperate retreat. For this they
were willing to sacrifice the ancient capt.
tai of the Cars. But the poor fools who
fred Charleston get nothing in return
save the miserable satisfaction Of having
by their own deed relieved Sherman's
army of mean and odious work.
We sincerely trust that the flames may
not be extinguished by the Union soldiers.
Let this American Drogheda perish from
the earth. Let it burn until all the flames
can destroy shall have been consumed,
and then let its walls be RACED. to their
foundations. Pity that it cannot be like
Sodom, sunk thousand feet below the
level of the ocean. There is monument
going up at Gettysburg to keep alive for
ever the memory of those who shed their
blood in that decisive battle for freedom.
A monument of another sort should go up
in Charleston and it ought to be built of
salt and sulphur. A far better place for
a commercial city is Port Royal, where
loyal men have already laid such founda-
tons as, we hope, few years will de-
velop into southern metropolis as re-
markable for its patriotism and. of
liberty as that fred on the 18th has al
ways been for its toryism, aristocracy and
treason. Three things ought to be known
of this city to future generations: first,
that it was founded in 1879 by dealers it
slaves; second, that it was first TO raise
its hand against Liberty and Union in
1861 and thrd that it was RACED to the
ground and sowed in salt by freemen in
1865. ,,. .. ...... .--. .r-.-., .-r.,,
