MATTERS AT AuRoRA.-A correspond
ent of the Sacramento Union, at Aurora,
writes under date of December 9th, as
follows:
One of the most positive Islander cases
ever brought into our Court, was tried
in the District Court last week, between
William MolineauX, a pioneer hardware
merchant in this town, and one OF our
most quiet and respectable citizens, with
q family of children and grandchildren,
plaintiff, and John D. Winters, defend
ant. The damages were laid at $4,000.
The case was ably argued by Seawell
| and Cough for plaintiff, and Mitchell and
| Boring for defendant. The jury, after
a short absence, returned a verdict for
| the plaintif with one dollar damages,
which, in compliance with the law,
throws the whole cost on the plaintif,
as in the District Court, where plaintiff
RECEIVERS less than 500, he has to pay
the cost. A verdict more surprising to
the citizens generally was V before
rendered in our Courts-the jury sup
posing that the one dollar verdict car
ried the costs with it, which is not the
case. When such a citizens reputation
and character are valued by the jury at
one dollar and he has to sustain an ex-
peuse of from $500 to $500 to establish
it, it is not surprising, from such results,
that the people are driven to the pistol
and Bowie-knife for self-protection and
| selE-respect.

Fieudish Outrage upon n Woman.

The Fifth Ward Of the city of Chica-
go, commonly called Bridgeport, has
recently been the scene of a tragedy OF
sickening and terrible in its details, that
a recital Of the particulars would shock
the nerves Of the most hardened, and
move to sympathy and indignation the
feelings of the most stony-hearted of
mortals. The victim Of these diaboli-
cal outrages was the woman previously
mentioned as having been found dead
in the vicinity Of the Rolling Mills in
that neighborhood.
The facts, so far as ELECTED, may be
summed up briefly as follows:
For several months, during the sum-
mer, a Mrs. Mary Roam had been en-
ployed as cook by Mr.. Bulger, who kept
Il clearinghouse near the locks at
Bridgeport. While in his employ, she
had always been of good habits and re-
liable. About a month ago, Mr.. Bulger
closed his house and discharged her.
He did not see her again until two weeks
a~fterward, when she came to him and
reqested that he give her work. He did
so, and until hast Sunday morning she
remained with him. On that day she
partook of a too great quantity Of intox-
icating drink, and left his house. In
the evening, in a state of partial intoxi-
cation, she wandered about among the
various saloons which line the Archer
road on either side, begging for shelter,
which was denied her.
Meantime, Il crowd Of rufians collect
ed around her, forced her away from the
reach of aid or succor, stripped her of
her clothing, violated her person, and
left her to perish, as the night vas cold
and rain falling in a heavy shower. In
this nude and suffering condition she
was taken to the house standing near
the Rolling Mills, and the inmates were
notified OF her presence. They heard
her means Of agony, hut did not attempt
to assist or save Der, and in the morn
ing she was found dead in Il ditch with
in twenty feet of Il house in which were
living human beingsl
While in the hands OF the rufhans she
was seen by several men and women,

t~erfere, and as policemen are n rarity in
that immediate vicinity, the foul work
was accomplished without opposition.
But the arm of the law is strong, and
the unerring sword OF justice is swift
descending. Already Il number of these
bruteS have been identified and arrest
ed, and their punishment cannot fail to
follow.
P. Sins YERDIcT.-The jury here
retired, and, after a short consultation,
returned the following verdict:
That the said Mary Roam came to her
death at an early hour on the morning
of November 10th, 1866, at a place near
the house of Mr.. Morris Brown, situated
near the Illinois and Michigan canal,
city of Chicago, county of Cook, State
of Illinois from the effects of violence
inflicted by q number o. ~persons, among
whom were Francis McKenna, Thomas
Hickey, and John Hartford Chicago Re

The TEST OATH DEoIsIoN.-There is
reason to believe the decision of the U.

"the Test Oath" referred to the State

Congress. Though yer in the latter
case, an adverse decision would not pre-
vent Congress from insisting upon proof
of loyalty as one of the qualifications Of

THE LESSON OF THE WINTER. The terribly
severe winter teaches a lesson that should not
be lost on our people. Living up on the 10th
parallel, we have no right to calculate upon the
mild climate peculiar to the temperate regions.
Instead of this, we should make our arrange
ments so as to be prepared for the cold winters
that usually obtain in high Northern ATTITUDES.
Instead of fimsy structures, scarce ft for sum
mer residences, we should build strong, sub
stantial houses, such as will AFFORD protection
against the heat of summer a. we'll as the cold
of winter. If other and better building material
is not to be had, we should resort to the adobe
by the use of which we shall obtain comfortable
dwellings, such as will stand the test ofAll sea-
sons. Whilst thus providing for ourselves, we
should not be indifferent to the comfort of the
animals that minister so much to our enjoy.
ment. Arrangements for the winter should never
be deemed complete that fail to include abun-
dance Of feed for stock. Shelter too should be
provided. The stock thus cared for will be vast
ly more valuable than under the present make
shift arrangement. In an early day we fell into
the habits ofthe miserable Cayuses who pcopled
this country. Let US now go back to the good
old customs of our fathers

TIE IDAHO JUDGEs.-The memorial to
Congress asking the removal of the Idaho
Judges, concludes as follows That the legal
requirements of our Judges have not been
such as to inspire confidence in the minds Of
the members of the Bar or mass of the peo-
plej that there are great and growing interests
in our Territory, involving immense outlays
of capital, and that security of life and prop
erty in our Territory require Judges of q
higher order of talent and great purity of
character, as well as knowledge of the wants
aud interests of our rapidly developed Terri.
tory as suits involving mining interests Of
almost inOalculablo Talust and now pending
in the Courts, your memorialists would there.
fore request an immediate reorganization Of
the Judicial Department of our Territory, BY
the removal Of the present iucumbents and
the appointment of persons to the Supreme
Beuch who know their duty and have the
honesty and integrity to perform it.

THE WEArHER.-In the absence of any other
topic of news, the weather affords a fruitful
theme for speculation. How long the winter
will last2 How mnch more snow we are likely
to have? are the questions that are constantly
being asked. Without pretending to answer
either of these queries, we have only to say that
the weather is in the last degree unpleasant. On
Sunday last the sun shone out mAgni6cently and
gave every indication that winter was about to
relinquish his icy grasp but the following day
dispelled this pleasing anticipation, and for the
past five days Wa have had nothing but cloudy,
gloomy, disagreeable weather. The Oldest in
habitant declares that be has never before known
such a miserable winter, and the newcomer
echoes back that it would do credit to Green
land. There is an old saying, that 'misery loves
COMPANY" !" and inasmuch as the severe weather
has extended to the whole coast, possibly WI
have no right to complain. When every thing
is dreary and unpromising, it is we'll to cult
Vate a kindly, jOvial disposition, and patiently
wait for the "good time coming"
, 1866-01-12

DEFAULTERs.-From the report of the
Idaho Territorial Auditor, it would seem that
nearly every county treasurer in the Terrific,
ry is in default. From other sources we learn
that the late Secretary, who, it will be re-
collected, died very suddenly, is in default /;
but to what amount it is not known. Tie
Idaho officials seem to be reViving the early
history of California in small way. The
officials of every grade are charged with dis,
honest practices, and the judiciary, with the
exception of one Judge, is open to the charge
of corruption and ineffciency. Truly, hap>
py state of affairs.

The BRANCH MINT.-The Idaho Legis>
lature has passed memorial asking Congress
to establish Branch Mint at Boise City.
1t really seems as if the..WhOle country is af
Aicted with mint on the brain. The MouA
tana Post is out in long article, the object
of which is to show that instead of Oregon
or Idaho, the Mint should be located at Vir-
ginia City, in that Territory. 1t would be a
good thing if the Government could locate a
Mint in every mining gulch and thus meet
the universal demand for coming facilities.

ANOTHER FLoURING MILL.-With the
opening ct the season, Col. J. s. RucLle will
commence the erection Of -four mill, which
will Hdjoin his quartz mill. We believe this
will be the fourth mill in Powder River Val>
ley. Hitherto the miners have been mainly
dependent upon the Willamette Valley for
their breadstufs; but with another season
the mills in Grande Ronde and Powder Riv-
er Valleys will turn out sufficient -four to
meet this demand. Our WebfOot" friends
have had pretty good thing on the trade
to the mines; but their day is about over, and
in future they must look to California for q
market for their breadstufs. In very few

raj Richard Gentry, who was made the Post
master at that place during Jacksons first

his wife was appointed his successor by Amos
Kendall. The Statesman concludes an in.
teresting account of her thus: A." Indeed,
we much doubt whether any Postofice in the
United States has been so well ordered or so
faithfully conducted during SO long a time
as the Columbia Postofice. Mrs Gentry's
advanced age, and the diverse business en>
gagements of her son, Thomas B. Gentry,
who for.the last ten years has been the act
ing Postmaster, always faithful, always true,
induced her to tender her resignation
