LONGITUDE OF SALT LAKE
CITY.

Perhaps the most ingenious, careful
and complex scientific experiments to
determine longitude, time of transmits,
sion of telegraph signals, by means of
astronomical instruments and the tele~
graph combined, that have ever been
made in the country have just been con-
cluded in ascertainIng the longitude OF
Salt Lake City. Brigham Young gem
erously permitted the use of Temple
Block and incurred considerable expense
in erecting temporary observatory
therein for the use of the gentlemen
connected with the coast survey making
the observations At the Salt Lake,
Cambridge and San Francisco observa-
tories Simultaneous observations were
made with the most delicate instrus
ments, the clocks in each being connect
ed by an unbroken double circuit Of T.
900 miles. Ii was ascertained that the
electric current on the wire in use-No.
B, passes at a rate of 10000 to 25,OOO
miles per second, depending. we pre-
sumo, upon the varying density of the
atmosphere. The approximate longi-
tude of the city is hours, % minutes
and 30 seconds time, or Ill degrees, 53
minutes and 15 seconds in space, west
of Greenwich, England. 1t will require
a year to reduce the observations and
determine il exactly. The observations
were made during the very favorable
weather about the LIST OF March. We
are indebted TO Mr.. Sabin and the Re
porter for the above information.

THE ATTACHMENT Law.

A writer in the Herald of last even-
ing, lawyer, possibly, calls attention
to certain assumed defects in the Civil
Practice Act of 1867, and suggests that
the attachment law is really repealed by
Sec. 504 of the Civil Practice Act. We
are not versed in legal lore, and do not
here discuss the merits of the Attach~
ment law. but having been led to look
over the statutes by the article referred
TO, we submit:
Ist. If Sec. 121 of the Civil Practice
Act of 1867 was impaired by the omis-
sion of the conjunction 'or," which
seems improbable. does not that portion
of the Civil Practice Act of 1865, Begin
ming at Sec. 56S and under title Xxx"
which was specially exempted from re-
peal in Sec. 504 of the Civil Practice Act
of Dec. %, 1867, have full force and
efficacy in regulating proceedings in at
tachment casesl
ID. Sec 504 in the above act did not
repeal the attachment law of Dec. ID,
1867, (page S3) but an amendment to the
Civil Practice Act of 1865, (page 6S) APP
proved Dec. 6. 1867, and noted as re-
pealed on page of Index of Fourth
Session laws. r..r
AS we stated before, we make no pre>
tensions in this line of discussion. but
If any of our lawyers think there is no
attachment law and no provisions for
enforcing il in Montana, however
strictly construed" upon residents, we
would be pleased 10 hear from them.

A NEW MOTIVE PowER.-One of Cap
tain Ericsson's latest and most startling
announcements relates to the suns heat.
He has contIived to concentrate its rays
so as TO keep a steam engine in full play
with as much ease and more economy
than it could be kept going with coal.
In short, by mathematical exactness,
that extraordinary man exhibits just
how much of the suns surface may be
used by lenses, and what will be the de-
gree of heat thus obtained for keeping
even thousands of steam-engines in mo-
tiOn, independent OF any other kind of
fuel.
Captain Ericsson calculates a period
when all the coal fields of Europe viii
be exhausted. at that eyentful epoch
manufacturers may fall back on the cen-
ter of the solar system for a potent SUBJ
stitute, which can never give out till the
universe itself is blotted out of exist
ence. Instead OF ridiculing his an
nouncement, or criticising his calcula-
tions on caloric force to be thus OBJ
tanned, let philosophers take up the sub
ject in sober earnest in devising ways
for profiting by this great discovery OF
the most remarkable engineer who has
appeared in this or any other country
since the days of Hearth
and Home.

WHO STOLE THE BLANKETS /,

In the House consideration of the In
dian appropriation bill, Mr.. Cavanaugh
endeavored to have the appropriation
for the Flat Head Indians increased from
1000 to $4,000 As a reason he read q
letter from Capt. McAuley-whom he
characterized as "as q truthful, honest
man, a sincere Christian. taking the
warmest interest in civilizing and Chris
thanking the Indians: and there is not
in any department of the government a
more faithful and conscientious officer
giving heartrending details of the ten
blind persons in the tribe and the suffer
ings of all in the inclement season for
blankets He further stated that he had
indidually purchased one hundred blank
cts for and distributed to the Kootenays
besides a large amount of provisions,
clothing. &c, and Mr.. c. asked the ad-
ditional $1,000 to reimburse him. These
blankets were bought as per statement
of Mr.. G., for the following reason:
Il presume il is right and just that
should state TO the com mittee that some
party or parties in the Territory of Mon
tana, some employee of the Government,
or some official thereof, committed the
crime of larceny by stealing from these
Indians something like two hundred and
thirteen pairs of blankets before they
ha6 arrived at the agency while being
transported from Fort Benton to the
reservation in Bitter Root valley"
when they are new. Who stole the
426 blankets? The appropriation was
not increased. Somebody should be
made TO reimburse Capt. McAuley. The
426 blankets at the rate mentioned
amount TO Sc, $50. 1t is definitely fixed
by Mr.. C.-under whose charge they
were when stolen. Why not follow the
matter upf

ginia and Truckee Railroad. There
were no grand ceremonies on the occa-
sion. The few gentlemen present took
a nip or two of old Bourbon, and with a
few words. more in the shape of toasts
than speeches, the thing was done
Some 40 men were set to work at once.
The commencement was made at the
foot of American Flat. near what is
known as the Frenchman's Garden. at
the head of American Ravine, at which
point tunnel GOO feet is to be con-
structed. This tunnel will be 20 feet
in hight and IA in width. An old min
ing tunnel, about $50 feet in length.
near by where the railroad tunnel will
be cut, and running parallel with il,
shows that the rock to be excavated
will be soft and shelly-that is full of
seams-therefore IL is quite certain that
the tunnel must be timbered. There
will be another but shorter tunnel be-
tween this place and Gold Hill, proba-
bly, in the vicinity of the Tunnel Toll~
road The grade OF the road in this
city will be such as TO carry it about on
the level with the works of the Ophir
company at their new shaft. A large
force of men will soon be employed on
the road The work CT track -laying
will commence at Carson, as that is the
nearest point where ties can be obtained
The road will strike Gold Hill near Fort
Homestead, will pass over the canyon
on trestle-work, thence will strike down
10 the lower end of American Flat,
where. passing through the big tunnel
mentioned above, it comes out on the
south side of the range and passes down
near the old Santiago mine, and 40 on
down to the Valley of the Carson. l.

Bannack. March sth 1869.

Our readers will recollect the mem
ton recently that New York clergymen
were operating heavily on Wall street,
that the church funds were used, and
in some instances churches were heavi-
ly mortgaged to secure means to operate
The Assessors Report states that $2,-
000 900 are thus used 1t is also stated
that over five hundred million dollars of
foreign capital is used in Wall street
operations, and this amount has hereto
fore escaped taxation under the returns
made. The legitimate tax on IL would
be $2,500.000 per annum. The entire
amount returned by brokers is $15, 5,0O0,-
600, while the Investigations show that
two houses have a record of over $170,-
100000 American capital in use. There
is big leak to stop.

The breath OF the South brings to
our ears the clash of resounding arms"
The Bruce at Bannack burns with fer
vid fury, and Sample Orr demonstrates
his fitness for delegate by neglecting his
hair, and telling Missouri anecdotes.
Grant may say Peace, Peace" but there
will be no peace in Montana until after
the first Monday in August. The war
has actually begun, and with Bruce and
Orr in the field the "clash of arms" is no
metaphor. 1t is a tangible, angular,
raw-boned fact. Not a zephyr that
sweeps down from the mountains to
teach the lilies their courtesies on the
marge of far off rivers, but will be laden
with the eloquence of Gil Bias, or bris-
tie with the wit of Don Quixote. The
Literary defects of the present age will
evaporate into thin all, and the new born
purity, vigor and philosophical wisdom
of mountain lands be poured into the
grateful languishing ear of the universe,

Which eats into itself, and rusts inglonously.
Will they permit inactivity to despoil
the generous vineyards of their minds,

THE Democrat, like the Gazette, is op-

sessed of an idea that unless the stat-
utes declare the inferiority of the ne
groes he will not be an inferior. If they
hold that il is wrong for Congress TO
submit the impartial amendment, we
ask them if they would be in favor OF
the following readings:
For God hath made of one blood all nations
of (white) men for to dwell on the face of
the earth.-Bible.
We hold these truths to be self,evident,
that all (whIte) men are created equal.-Dec-

Bowie Bowieli Boneiil As our
American Neptune slowly rises from the
sea of obscurity into the sunlight of
fame, his name changes like the spots

Monroe Edwards. Once the telegraph
had it right-Borie-bu the Helena

sistency, clung to the ariginal rendering.
His name is Adolphe +. Borie, of the
firm of Mexican, Borie & Co., Philadel-
phia. From Mr.. lesson, late of St.
Louis, associated with him in schoolboy
days, and in later years intimately con-
nected by business relations, we have
the following concerning the Secretary
of the Navy: f-F .-r I.. II.
He is descended from one of ;he old
Hugenot families of Rochelle. France,
who came to America in the early cay,
and established house for the impor~
tation of French goods, and as business
prospered, enlarged the trade TO Mexican
and East and West India commerce, the
house attaining its greatest prosperity
after coming under the management OF
Mr.. A. +. Borie. He was tor some ten
or twelve years President of the Bank
of Commerce OF Philadelphia. but re-
signed about 1857, and spent some time
in France. and. we believe, is not now
an active member of the firm mentioned.
A brother of A. 4. is one OF the heaviest
brokers of Philadelphia. He is repre-
sented as practical, energetic, sagac-
ious man of the world, of fine address
and pleasing manners, and of high char
acter for integrity. but not known to
possess extraordinary abilities or attain-
ments outside of his legitimate business.
He is Of medium stature, slender in
