TIE BANKRUPT BILL.-Chief Justice
Chase has decided to appoint only two
Registers in each Congressional District,
and in all cases, where one register
would be acceptable to persons in the
district, to only appoint one. 1t is de-
clared to be the intention Of the Chief
Justice to consult Z. S. District Judges
in regard to the appointment of these
officers, and also members Of Congress
in all cases where they are lawyers.
The Chief Justice has also stated to
numerous applicants that he will make
no appointments under the Bankrupt
bill until May.

The ENPTY CRApLE.-There is whole
volume of poetry in the following little
sketch, which we find in the last number
Of Miss Barber's Weekly.
We met John on the stairs. He was
carrying an old cradle to be slowed away
among what he termed plumber, in the
lumber room. One rocker was gone,
and the wicker work of the sides broken
it was an old willowy affair, but we
could not refrain from casting a sad
look into its empty depths.
"Gone |" We said dreamily, all
gone !" What golden heads were once
pillowed here heads on which the curls
grew moist to slumber. and the cheeks
and lips hushed to the hue of rose leaves.
When sleep broke the silken fringed lips
opened heavily from the slumberouS
eyes /; smiles fitted like sunbeans over
the face the white fist was thrust into
the mouth, and when mamma lifted the
muslin and peeped in to see if baby was
awake what cooling and Growing were
heard The little feet began to kick,
out of pure delight, and kicked on until
both Of the tiny red shoes were landed
at the foot Of the cradle. Where are
those heads now? Some that were en-
Drowned by vigorous manhood, are
sleeping on battle fields some bleached
with time and cares ; and the feet have
grown sore and weary IN the rough
paths of life.
Perhaps some little n tenderly
rocked here is sleeping in the coffin.
Over it grew hearts ease, and vigorous
box, and white candy-tuft, and the starry
jassamine. The blue bird filters its
bright wings through the willow bough;
and the cool summer wind whispers to
the green leaves and grass blades on the
grave. What Of? perhaps Of its immor-
tally. Sleep on little dreamless one
"Of such is the Kingdom of Heaven"

SAN FRANCISCO, April 29-l P. n.

An AWKWARD The Paris
correspondent of the Morning Star re-
lates an amusing adventure which &C.
Cured to a foreign gentleman who re-
ceiyed an invitation to the state ball
which took place lately at the Tuileries.
Being a stranger, he naturally inquired
whether any particular dress was re-
quired on these occasions, when he was
informed that he must appear en- uni
,forme, which expression does not alone
imply military, naval, or civil costume,
but likewise signifies Court dress. The
gentleman, however, not aware Of this,
proceeded to a tailor on the B%oulevards,
and, seeing a splendid suit Of blue,
magnificently embroidered with gold,
thought he could not do better than or
der a similar suit wherein to make his
appearance at the ball. On his arrival
at the Palace be was much grati6ed at
the respect with which be was received,
and not a little tlattered by being ush-
cred into the presence of their Majesties
by the private entree, crowded at that
moment by several personages whose
dress was similar to his own. He re-
marked that several amongst them
looked ut him, with some surprise and
evidently inquired amongst each other
who he was but seeing that they all
looked gentlemen and persons Of a GER
tain age, he innocently congratulated
himself on having evidently done the
right thing. A few moments, however,
had scarcely elapsed when Al official, in
q gorgeous scarlet and gold uniform,
came up to him, and, in q somewhat
peremptory tone, requested him to follow
him into the next room. The fact WAS,
the unfortunate gentleman had furnished
himself with a Senator's dress.

EXPEDITION AGAINST n INDIANS
Early yesterday morning, u streets re-
sounded with the clashing Of sabres
against the sides Of horses, which were
mounted by men in military apparel.
Upon inquiry, W. learned that the mil
itary display was in consequence Of an
expedition against the Black Hawk tribe
Of Indians, who have lately committed
some d%epredations upon the white in
habitauts in the vicinity Of San Pete.
A body of militia cavalry, under the
command of Capt. 0rson Miles, number
ing about forty men, left yesterday after
noon for the seat Of war. We hear that
the intention is to enlist mon at the
different settlements along the route.
The enlistmeuts are for six months, Gun
less sooner discharged" We hope the
Utah militia will render 8 good account
of themselves, by Kidding the Territory
Of this trescherous band Of Indians, who
have for a long time annoyed the peace
full inhabitants living in the southern
part of Utah.-S. l.. Vedette.

NATIONAL RECOGNITION OF THE DEITY.
A Convention of Christian ministers and
others from different parts of the coun-
try has recently been in session in the
city of Philadelphia. Their object Is to
secure a national recognition of the
Being and Providence of God. In a
series Of resolutions passed on Wednes-
day, they say Nature as we'll as Revela-
ton declares Jehovah to be the Supreme
Ruler, and as such he has ordained
human governments for his subjects
here, and has communicated to them
rules Of conduct suitable for every rela-
ton of life, and to which he requires
strict obedience and conformity. That
he has also made known to US the fact
that he has constituted his son Jesus
Christ, the "Governor among the ma
tions," the Prince of tho Kings Of the
earth" and the " Head over all things.
and that therefore q recognition Of him
is due BY US who as q nation have been
10 highly favored of God. That all our
national legislators, from the foundation
of our government to the present, have
objected to a public recognition Of the
Deity by the Constitutional Amendment,
lest il should be construed as interfering
with the religious liberty Of the citizens
of the Republic, when such an objection
is in reality an assumption that the a
ton should know no God-sn assump-
ton which is repudiated BY the sblest
expounders of the Constitution. In the
afternoon session an additional resolu-
ton was passed, to the effect that human
governments having been appointed oy
God, it is criminal in Christian subjects
and citizens to allow the reins OF gov
eminent to be usurped by men who
make no recognition of, and W no al
legisnce to the Divine Being. At the
evening session several addresses were
made IN corresponding subjects.

The SANTA CLARA COUNTY D~EFAuLrER.
Parties in search of Mccall, the de-
faulter, feel confident that he passed
through Carson on horseback a week
ago yesterday. A man answering his
description stopped at Welliugton's Sta
ton Thursday night, and wanted TO pur-
chase a saddle horse. Those in pursuit
were only a half days travel behind
him.-Car,On appeal.
Russell, the energetic dairyman OF
American City, on arriving at Virginia
city, recently, from a trip over the
mountains, was arrested on a telegram
as Mccall; but on recognition by the
officer was Immediately released. Rus
sell privately told us-(by the way, he
10 q strong Democrat)-that he did not
mind the arrest at all, as it has been
quite common for his kind Of politicians
to DO arrested on such charges-but as
Mccall was elected in Santa Clara as a
Republican, and as such robbed the
county, to arrest him (Ru,sell) as a
Republican, be felt highly indignant.
We have seen a photograph of Mccall,
and it resembles Russell very nearly.
No wonder the officer made a mistake.

PACIFIC RAILRoAD.-The work Of the
Central Pacific Railroad above Cisco is
progressing rapidly, and is in q much
more forward state than the public gen.
orally are aware of. Since the Com
pany commenced the use of nirro-glycer-
inc the work of blasting has been greatly
facilitated. During o recent visit to
Cisco we learned that the main con-
struction department would move from
that place about the first Of August, and
that in all probability the III would be
running to Crystal Peak and onward by
the first Of November, next. It is cslcu-
lated that the work on the big tunnel
on the Summit will be completed by the
middle of September next, making the
time about one year occupied in its ex-
cavation. The Company, we learn, are
anxious to employ sll the help they can
possibly procure, as it is their deter
mination to spare no effort to push ahead
this stupendous enterprise to as speedy
aud successful completion as possible.

Our SALT BEps.-We find in the Mn
mo and Scientific Press Of the 9th inst,
that at the regular meeting Of the Cali
fornia Academy Of Natural Sciences, an
interesting paper was read describing "a
mountain of rock salt found near to the
Muddy river, about one hundred miles
from the Great Bend Of the Colorado
river, in Arizona. 1t is about a mile
wide, several miles long, and in places
four hundred feet high. The salt is en-
tirely pure chloride of sodium. 1t was
remarked that the old Spanish maps
have on them, in a locality near the one
designated, the name Mountain Of
Salt showing that the early padres
must have known of its existence"
This is the mountain Of salt which we
have often described a. standing about
seventy-ive miles southeast of the mines
of P~ahranagat. 1t is represented to be
near TO the Muddy river, in the paper
from which we have quoted. We do
not deem this placing ut all accurate,
but think probably that il was intended
to be said that the mountain Of salt was
as heal to the Muddy river as it was to
some other place in the neighborhood.
Neither the mountain Of salt nor the
Great Bend Of the Colorado are now in
Arizona Territory. 1t is at least doubt
full whether the former ever vas within
the limits of that territory but since
our acquisition Of 10000 square miles
from Arizona by act Of Congress, the
Great Bend Of the Colorado, and the
head of navigation, are within this
State. The salt obtained from the
mountain is Of the pureSt quality. 1t
does not absorb moisture from the at
mosphere, and its thin layers are as
transparent as glass. 1t is said that it
has long been used in the contiguous
Mormon settlements in lieu of window
glass, for which purpose it is a good
Substitute.-R. R. Rsveihe.

NlBRAsKA.-The bill accepting the
Congressional condition, was rushed
through the State Legislature, enrolled
and prepared for the signature of the
Governor, when lo!-which Governor
was the Governor? became a question.
Alvin declined signing the bill because
il was the Act Of a State Legislature
and be was the Governor Of a Territory.
David declined signing it because the
Legislature was called together under
An Ac. of Congress by the Territorial
Governor, and he hadnothingto do with
it. Now, as the Legislature adjourned
within three days of the passing of the
Act of Congress admitting the State
Of Nebraska into the Union" has not
been at all complied with, and is in
reality MOI = State, though represented
in Congress.

TEE LrroH TRADE. The trade in
leeches, in Australia, is becoming an
important business. Steamers go out
from Melbourne to the region of swamps
and lagoons, n hundred or two hun
dred miles away, and sometimes collect
from 100000 to $50, 900 leeche, on a
single trip. At Melbourne they are put
up for transmission abroad. Largo
numbers are sent to London and Paris,
whore, it is stated, they are preferred to
leeches brought from any other place ;
but the principal outlet for the export
is America, whore the demand is always
great, from the rarity of the proper kind
Of leech. The shipments are made to
San Francisco, Panama and New York,
whence the leeches are distributed in all
directions. The business is rapidly in
creasing, and tho supply of leeches is
said to be Unlimited.

The ARRAY AT CIsco.-The Grass
Valley National of April cath thus speaks
of the late ARRAY in Cisco:
Jim Sexton owed a Jew clothing mer-
chan, 81 so on an old account. He
went into the store and gave the Jew q
counterfeit SIS piece, and the Jew, not
suspecting anything, returned So so in
change. Sexton's attention was attract
ed BY a coat. He asked the Jew how
much he asked for it, and he replied
STA, saying he would take half down
and half credit. Sexton said he would
take it anyhow, and put the coat on and
walked off with it. On his way up the
street he met two Cinnamon, both Of
whom he knocked down, and from one
of whom he secured the knife with which
he subsequently stabbed Rogers. His
brother, hearing Of what he had done,
gave him the money to 60 down and pay
for the coat and redeem the counterfeit
piece; but in doing so, the lie passed
between him and the Jew, when he
rushed toward the Jew who drew his
pistol, but four of the caps snapped, and
Sexton got in on him and beat him
badly. Subsequently, the merchant
swore out a warrant against him. Rog-
ers, knowing him to be q desperate
character, solicited the aid Of several
citizens in arresting him. Rogers, on
going up to Sexton, commanded him to
hold up his hands, but instead of doing
so he rushed upon the officer, who fred,
hitting Sexton in the breast. The Off
Ger now stumbled and fell, when Sexton
jumped on top Of him and stuck the
knife clear through, inflicting q mortal
wound. While the parties were in this
position, a third party, one Of the Con-
stables aids, stepped up, and placing
the muzzle Of a pistol under his ear,
discharged the contents into his head.
Even after this shot he got up and start
ed to walk of, when another party dis
charged the contents Of a double-barrel-
ed shotgun into his back.
