Brigham Young Arrested.

1t is getting warm out in Utah. Brig
ham Young has been arrested on the
charge of murder by the United States
Marshal. He appeared in court, attend
ed by many high church dignitaries, and
ton.
Mr. Hampstead moved that the prisoner
be admitted to bail on the ground that
he was an old mau, IL years of age, and
in feeble health. He had come 400 miles
to meet this and all other charges, and his
physician certified that imprisonment
wonld impair his life.
Mr. Bates had no opposition to bail,
but suggested that if bail be taken it be
fixed at s50O,000
Judge Mexican said that the govern
ment of the United States has no Jail in
Salt Lake City for holding prisoners ar
rested on process issued from the Uni
ted States Courts. The Marshal is required
to exercise the discretion which the law
vests in him. Sometimes such prisoners
are kept at Camp Douglas, but the COM
mander of that fort was not obliged to re-
ccive them. The prisoner is reported to
be the owner of several houses 10 the city
If he choose to put under the control of
the Marshal some situable building 10
which to be detained, it will be for the
Marshal to decide whether to adopt it
1t is the option of the prisoner to make
such an offer In any event, the Mar
shal will look to it that every comfort Of
the prisoner be provided for, remember
ing that he is an old man. decline to
admit to bail
On leaving the court, Brigham tender
ed the Marshal his residence in South
Temple street, which was accepted, aud
Brigham is now prisoner in his own
house He seemed perfectly cool and un-
concerned.

There were balls, dogs and horses, books pleas
ing TO see,
And birds of all colors were perched in the tree;
While Santa Claus, laughing, stood up in the
top
As if getting ready more presents to drop.
And as the fond father the picture SURVEYED.
He thought for his trouble he had amply been
paid,
And he said to himself, as he brushed off tear,
"Pm happier tonight than Tve been for a year
Eve enjoyed more true pleasure than ever be-
fore,
What care / if bank stock falls ten per cent

Hereafter I'll make it rule, believe,
To have Santa Claus visit us each Christmas
Eve.
SO thinking, he gently extinguished the light,
And tripped down the stairs to retire for the
night,
AS soon as the beams the bright morning sun
Put the darkness to flight, and the stars, one by
one
Four little blue eyes out of sleep opened wide
And at the same moment the present cspied,
Then out oftheir beds they sprang with bound.
And the very gifts prayed for were all of them
found.
They laughed and they cried in their innocent
glee.
And shouted for papa" to come quick and see
What presents old Santa Claus brought in the
night,
(Just the things they wanted,) and left before

"And now," added Annie, in voice soft and
low,

While dear little Willie climbed up on his knee,
Determined no secret between them should be;
And told, in soft whispers, how Annie had said
That their dear, blessed mamma, so long ago

And that God up in heaven had answered her

The State Surveys.

We have received from Surveyor Cen
eral Campbell copy of his annual report
to the Governor, detailing the operations
of his department during the year past.
The revenues Of the Office, during the
past year, have been $l1 ,629S2. of which
Sl3, 1872 " were patent fees. This is an
Increase of revenue, as compared with
seven years past Two items of interest
are considered in the report. One is the
proPriety of providing fre-proof safes for
the preservation of the valuable books
and documents of the Office At present
they are liable, in case of fire. to be
entirely destroyed. The importance of
this suggestion is so entirely obvious that
it should be promptly adopted tits pos
slble that the chronic agitation in behalf
of removing the capital to Philadelphia
has prevented the Legislature from con-
sidering this and kindred subjects. Yet
this ought not to be allowed to interfere
with the safety of important papers. The
other item refers to the gradual increase
of the agricultural college aud scrip fund.
BY disposing of the existing bonds, and
funding anew the amount, the same will
be increased FROM 1891, 500 to S406 COS,
which the Surveyor General suggests,
should be brought, by State aid, up to
S5O0,0Oo. This is urged on the ground
of financial embarrassment on the part of
the college, and because of negligence on
the part of the State to take prompt ad-
vantage of the market for the sale of the
scrip. BY delay in properly legislating
on the. subject, nearly fifty per cent. of
the value of the scrip was lost, other
States being more prompt in placing their
scrip on the market These are all prac-
teal suggestions, based on right reason,
and deserve careful consideration on the
part of the Legislature.
The Jeffersonian. [volume] (Stroudsburg, Pa.) 1853-1911, 1872-01-18

structure more important, in view of
the safety of life and property, can be
we'll imagined than such a bridge as this,
having span of fifty two feet, crossing
from ten to twelve feet above the stream
whose water is middle deep The ac,
cdent itself is evidence of its important
character. The plaintiffs wagon was
overturned in the fall, the body crushed,
the load of wheat fell underneath it into
the stream, aud one Of the horses was
killed. AS remarked by our brother
Read, "a bridge looks fair till it breaks
down it is not like pit which you can
see and avoid" ''In practice it is used
up to the last moment" Hence, such a
structure demands constant vigilance to
guard and preserve it. Therefore, when
bridge is old, having stood for the
length of time the timbers composing it
are accustomed to last, aud when it may
be reasonbly expected that decay has set
in, it is negligence to omit all proper
precautions to ascertain its true condition.
Nor will mere appearance 10 such case
excuse the neglect. 1t is a matter Of
common knowledge that invisible defects
may, and under such circumstances
probably do exist-that either wet or dry
rot may have set in and not be visible,
and therefore should be sought for. But
no one of ordinary intelligence would
think of seeking for an unsound and
invisible defect by merely inspecting the
surface of the wood. This being the case,
it is clearly the duty of the Supervisors,
having thus reason to believe that defects
may exist, to call to their assistance those
whose skill will enable them to ascertain
the true state Of the structure and
determine the question Of its safety
Without boing this much, at least, their
duty TO the public is not performed. Not
to do it is, therefore, Negligence

Buried Alive.
WISCONSIN.

From the Milwaukee Wisconsin.
A few days ago man residing in the
the Ninth Ward, named Ruskowski, after
being sick with the smallpox for some
time, died, as was supposed. According
to the regulations recently passed by the
Board of Health, he was buried shortly
after his decease. His sister, who, it
seems, was not satisfied with the hasty
manner in which her brother was dispos
ed of, was so worked up by the circum-
stances, and SO certain that all was not
right, that to satisfy herself she had his
body exhumed some six hour after the
burial. To her own JOY, and to the
amusement of those who had pronounced
the man dead, it was found that indica-
tions of life still remained 10 the body of
the buried one lie was at once taken
back to his house, and after considerable
exertions and the applying OF the proper
restoratives, he was virtually brought to
life again. He is now living and doing
well.
