UTAH KNOCKING AT THE DooR.--Brig-
ham Young is trying to offset the revo-
luton in Utah by getting up a counter
movement in Washington. He aban-
dons his pet scheme of the State of Des-
eret, and will consent to being admitted
into the Union as the State of Utah.
His scheme is to have Congress auth
orize convention, to assemble in Salt
Lake City in the first week in July, to
formulate constitution in which poly
gamy is to be prohibited, and in Septem-
Der the election is to take place, and on
the assembling of Congress in Decent
Der, Brigham would be Governor, and
two Senators, and a Representative
would take their seats in the National
Legislature. No one believes in the
sincerity of Brigham abandoning poly
gamy, and the measure before Con
gress is regarded with distrust. One of
his influential bishops, and the husband
of five wives, arrived in Washington on
Wednesday morning from Utah, and
was introduced to several of the Con
gressmen by Mr.. Hooper, SO that Brig
ham sends full -aedged polygamist to
that city to lobby through his bill.

SILVER ORE IN NEvADA.-The success
full working of the newly discovered sill
yer and lead carbonate mines in Nevada
and Utah creates more than q White
Pine excitement in the Pacific States.
One mine is now producing bullion at
the rate of more than ST 100000 annu-
ally, in three little furnaces that cost
about SIS, 900 each, and nearly fifty per
cent. is net profit. The most produc-
tive mines so far opened are the Eureka
District, Lander county, Nevada, and
Little Cottonwood District, twenty-five
miles southeast of Salt Lake City. The
Eureka District produces more precious
metal month than White Pine at its
best, and is accessible to San Francisco
by railroad.
There are now in operation in Eureka
twelve furnaces. which produce about
twenty-five tons of bullion day, worth
$4,000, or So. 100000 a year. The main
and the entire width is rich pay ore,
yielding about twenty-five per cent. of
metal-four tons of ore to one of base
bullion. The amount of ore in sight
is very large. On the Eureka four
shafts have been sunk, at intervals of
200 feet, and they show the same rich
carbonates all the way down. The
deepest has reached depth of POO feet.
On the Phoenix claim, adjoining, there
is one shaft fifty feet deep, and another
twenty and the jackson mine, next to
the Phoenix, has three shafts about 100
feet apart, and all of them, for their en-
tire depth, are in the same rich carbon
ate of lead.

The Spaniards have fixed the civil list
for King Amadeus at a rate which is
very high, considering the depressed
condition of the national finances. The
allowance to Queen Isabella was "A,
100000 reales, or $l,700,000 of our
money; and to her husband and other
members of the royal family, l8,85O,O0O
reales, or $9l7, 500; total cost OF the
Court of the tax-paying people, $25,-
100000 reales, or $2,6l7, 800. Besides
this, Spanish royalty had number of
national palaces, rent free, and was eX-
empted from ordinary taxation.
The new King of Spain is. TO have q
civil list of $l,200,000 per annum; the
heir apparent, an infant, is to be allowed
100000 a year, and there will be allow
ance of 100000 for the maintenance of
the royal palaces. This (says the Phila-
delphia PresS) makes q total of ST 300
600 for young man, his wife, and in
fant boy. His neighbor, King Louis Of
Portugal, is allowed 365,000 milreis, or
about $4,000 But out Of this he pays
10000 to his wife, refusing a protfered
grant from the funds of the nation
and returns $4,000 per annum, to be
devoted to educational purposes. More
over, and in addition, in January, 1869,
the King of Portugal assigned to the
national treasury eight per cent. of the
annual income of the royal family, in

A Sm-in-Law Not Bound to Support
1jHt- the Father Of His - life. !s..e

An Ohio Judge has recently delivered
q decision which, aside from its adverse
Importance to the paternal parents OF
large families of marriageable daugh-
tels, may have considerable to do with
the increase of matrimonial alliances in
the future At least it removes g all
son-in-law to maintain the authors of
his partner in conjugal bliss, so far as
the legal obligation is concerned.
The suit in which this opinion was an
nounced was brought by a fatherin-law
against son-in-law upon contract, the
father alleging that before his daughter
married he was living with her in the
West, and that the young man, then
living in Ohio, wrote to him that if he
would come there and bring his daugh-
ter he would marry her, and that the
old gentleman should always have a
home with them and in accordance
with this understanding they moved
East, and the young couple were mar
ried. The question came incidentally
before the Court, whether son-in-law
was legally bound to maintain and sup,
port the father of his wife, in the alb
sence of any specific contract The
Court held that he was not-that when
a young man married, he took no such
legal obligation upon himself.
The decision will open the way for all
who may have had misgivings upon this
point, and definitely determine as well
the greatly agitated question about
+" marrying the whole family
Since this Ohio jurist has given q de
cision upon one side of the question, we
advise him, if he desires to make HIM
self popular among the young men, to
hold that the father-in-1aw is bound TO
support his sonin-law. For such a de-
cision he can find thousands of prece-
dents, agreeably to the maxim that "cus-
tom makes law" 4':." ae-H '4"-

New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1871-10-17

When the Governor assured them they
could not have cent until they went to
work, invitations were issued for propos-
ais to build the levees. On Saturday,
when these proposals were opened, they
We're, as we learn. all rejected.
This led to the communications of Gov
ernor Warmoth and the Board Of State
Engineers and Levee Commissioners,
which we publish in another column.
Tie attention Of the reader is called to
these papers. While they call on the
police juries and planters to prepare to
save themselves, yet neither is procla-
nation declaring the Levee Company to
be extinct but simply charge that they
do not respond promptly 10 the neces-
sites Of the occasion.
II is rumored that those mythical men
Of the East who professed to have millions
at their finger ends, have refused to sup
ply the sinews Of war, and as tie great
Mississippi river will wait for no man or
set Of men, the Governor has very wisely
directed the police juries to secure their
parishes. Other capitalists may come for
ward and buy this Levee Company out and
furnish the means to carry on the contract
with the State. If so, they must redeem
or pay for the levees built; if not, the
State will be saved ANYHOW.

d.. Cromwell thinks he IS Republican
because he calls himself one, ard because
he is in favor Of his own rights. There is
another rule to be adopted in determining
such matters. Republicans accept the
decision of the party as the rule Of their
government. They believe a.! men TO be
honest until they are proved to be dis
honest. They uphold their officers in all
good things, and do not find fault where
there is none. They do no: hold one man
responsible for the faults of Others, as
Cromwell holds the Governor responsible
for the omission Of the Republican party
to reward the founders Of the o.ganiza-
ton. They do not depend for thei-
rights upon officials, but they asss-: them
for themselves. And, in general, they
stand faster than Dr.. Cromwell. ard are
more sensible.

DECIDEDLY IN aFTER-TEoUGE7.

After the reports had become current
that the 1evee company had rejected all
the bids offered for building the levees,
and the State authorities had taken decided
action IN consequence, new idea seems
to have struck the directors. A meeting
was held last evening, acd awards were
made for about twenty Of the contracts.
1t is supposed he object is to stiffen the
stock, which was depressed to two dollars
yesterday But i: is very doubtful whether
the bidders will low come forward and
sign the contracts. The contractors are
required 70 give security for the per

ON CARONDELET STREET.

BIZ large number Of stockholders OF
Levee it was believed that tie stock OF
company whose revenue could be made
three millions year was too good thing
to let 60. Yesterday morning shares were
sold at s. and s. IS, slight decline from
the quotations of Saturday. But suddenly
throng Of brokers gathered around CEN
trail figure who was shaking the paper ex-
citedly in his hand and Offering it for sale ut
s. 50. Then scene Of wild commotiOn fol-
lowed, and offers poured in on all sides. Cries
Of whats the matterr What turned up'
who's buying." WHO'S bearing ;" rose up
on all sides, while brokers rushed like mad
either up or down the street, looking for
principals and going for information. The
first throng became two, three and even
four separate groups, all hallooing, cheer
irS and cha,tering like magpies. Then it
transpired that the cause of this excitement
was the forthcoming proclamation Of the
Governor lit turned out to be a letter., call
ing on the planters to build their own
levees, and ignoring the company altogether.
shares were disposed Of for several hours,
and the big mass of outsiders stood still
and looked ON without taking a hand. At
length the evening paper brought the
news, which was eagerly read and soon
acted upon. /. was also reported that
Mr.. Williams, president of the Board Of
Directors, had left and gone to Wilmington
before his departure was generally known.
In short. there was universal back down,
aud several thousand shares were sold, as
follows: One hundred shares at s., 100 at
s. so, 200 at 81 50. $50 at 49, 800 at s. 50,
500 at 50, Is at Is. so at Il s714. 100 at

Several other lots were sold on private
terms. and many of these were resold i'm
mediately after az about an eighth profit.
The bargains closed at s. 5a3 share.
with good prospect of improvement to-
day, when the worst is known.
Levee stock was the absorbing sensation
yesterday, and not a share Of other stock
was sold. We were told McComb had
written letter Of seven pages in length to
Governor Warmoth. in which he denied
having anything 20 do with tue Levee Com
pany. This was joined with other preju-
dic;al rumors. 1t is the first panic that has
visited our shores for a year at least. The
excitement continued until sunset, and
long after this hour groups Of brokers and
stockholders hung abOu: the corners. either
discussing the late turn affairs had taken.
or else making arrangements to cover heavy
losses The general opinion was against
Levee. and ran into the current that he who
leaned upon fancy stocks supported himself
on broken reed.
Cotton is in good demand. though prices
are intermittent. The request, notwith-
standing the unfavorable news from Liver
pool. shows that still higher rates are ex-
pected. Sales, considering the narrow field
TO which all operations are restricted, are
extraordinary, those of Saturday footing
up 5000 bales. Beyond the outside figures
of Saturday. tie prices have advanced, and
acc ording to those well informed, the tine
is far off for settling down.
