4 Case Of Total DenraYitY.

A Salt Lake paper gives the following
history OF a ruftlan now awaiting trial for
murder, which certainly comes as near
total depravlty as any we have met:
He tells the story of the murder, and
an unsuccessful attempt on a man named
Mayheld, with great circumstantiality OF
detail and adding in conclusion well,
Mayfeld need not be afraid of being kill
ed by a pistol, for it can't be done. His
life is insured. [ shot at him four times,
fair as ever man did, and with good
aim, and never hurt him. After the
killing he fled across the ridge, and the
next day hired to bishop there to herd
sheep. AS he relates the story, the
bishop spoke Of his intention to buy a
beef, On which tie man said: Have
you money enough to buy a beef?' No,
said, the Bishop, but I think can
trade for it," The prisoner adds very
complacently: Il think he was little
scared, but if he had money enough to
buy beef, thought | would pop him
oyer, take what he had, and light out |"
When arrested be only said, Il suppose
you Ii string me up to the first good limb
you come to, but I'll take nap first. >;
Upon which he lay down in the wagon
and snored quite Justify for four hours.
On weakening he expressed some surprise
at not being hanged at once, and was
told that, in this country, every man
could have trial and choice between
being hanged or shot. TO which he
made reply:
That's bully: I'll take shooting all
the time. He first gave his name as
Chauncey Millard, stating that he had no
recollection of his father; but soon after
spoke of his mothers maiden name being
Willard, so his paternity is rather doubt
ful. He was born In the South. Early
neglected and abused and taught moth
ing worth knowing, his hand was against
every man and good many hands against
him. The man to whom he was appren-
tlced maltreated him, and him and his first
crime was destroying his masters
property for revenge. This was at
the age of thirteen. Not long after
that he became bushwhacker, and
with a few companions robbed or muir
dered rebel or Union soldiers Indifferent ly
With the return Of peace he came West,
and relates several crimes and attempts
committed in this Territory.
He expresses willingness to die,
saying he has tried to make money by
crime, and made failure. Strangely
enough, the young man has what phreao-
logists would call rather good head, :
and presents an interesting but terrible
case of perverted moral instincts He
is eighteen or ninteen years of age, not
above the latter, though he is not certain
of his age. He presents curious case
Of the youthful criminal, made so by the
utter neglect of moral cultivation.

How TO KILL A TowN.-A late num-
Der of the Dubuque Herald has the fol-
lowing excellent suggestions:
If you want to kill town, put up no
more buildings than you are obliged to
occupy yourself. Ifyou should accident
ally have an empty building, and any one
should want to rent it, ask about three
times its actual value. Look at every
new conner with a scowl. Turn cold
shoulder to every business man and me-
chanic who seeks home among you.
Go abroad for wares rather than purchase
Of your own merchants and manufactur-
ers at the same prices. Refuse to adver-
tise, so that persons at distance will
net know that any business is being done
in your city. A prompt and close obser-
vance Of these rules will ruin any town in
two years.
