he fined the " Prophet, Seer and
Revelator" S25, and judged him de-
serving of one days confinement
and so he was sent to the peniten-
tiary.
The "Saints" feel that their lead
err has been greatly outraged, that
Judge Mexican has been guilty OF
an unwarrantable display of tyran-
meal authority, and Mormonism
from this time onward will be
clothed with a new and stirring in
terest, when it otherwise would have
died from its own rottenness and
manifold stupidity.
We thoroughly detest the Nor
mon leader, and regard him as a
compound of knave and fanatic and
an unmerciful tyrant over poor,
helpless people; but we cannot but
regret that Judge Mexican has, by
this imprisonment, contributed to
prolong Brigham's reign in Utah.
One night in the penitentiary over
matter solely of the Courts dignity
and not for crime-will help that
shrewd, foxy old man to thousand
more sermons on persecution. The
Judge should have shown the
prophet where he had committed
himself, and how he was liable to
have been severely punished, and
in the spirit of the Great Master, he
should have added: I" Go thy way
and sin no more
With such words he would have
killed the Prophet, and all his fam
atics: now they are quickened into
life again, and will be greater pest
than ever.

II SEEMS that the Legislature OF
New York will probably pass q
bill, the effect of which will be the
admission of Mrs. Tilton to the
witness stand, before the present
trial is closed, and also intended to
give wives generally the privilege
of testifying in all cases where
man and wife are concerned. We
see no objection to this, says an
exchange. As Elizabeth figures
very conspicuously in the Beecher-
Tilton business, she ought by all
means to have chance to tell what
she knows, and whether certain
things were accomplished in the
manner hitherto specified. Her
testimony in reference to the pater-
nifty of little Ralph, might settle a
disputed question, and give the
boy perchance an opportunity to
pursue career similar to that
which made Japhet noted.

FAILED.-An Intellectual attempt
was made last Thursday to remove
P. G. Hyman from the Wardenship
of the State Prison. On the meet
ing of the Board of State Prison
Commissioners, Acting Governor
Adams offered resolution for the
removal of Mr.. Hyman. He was,
doubtless, confident that the reso-
luton would carry, for the Board
had been called together expressly
for that purpose. But when the
vote was taken, Adams was the
only member who voted for the
resolution, and it was lost. Minor,
Secretary of State, and Kittrell,
Attorney General, voted against it.
This was a grievous disappoint-
ment to the Acting Governor. He
had promised the place to one Gar
rard, and it was supposed that
Attorney General Kittrell would
favor the change. In abiding to
the defeat of the resolution, the
Carson appeal says: by a
somewhat notable coincidence we
visited the prison yesterday before
learning of the defeat of this reso-
luton of the Acting Governors,
and being favorably impressed
with what we saw there, are now
prepared to say, without qualifica-
ton or mental reservation, that we
are very glad indeed that the Pen
itentiary is going to have Mr.. Hy-
mans supervision for some time to
come. Indeed there are three in
situations in this State which, if we
could have our way, would not
soon change hands. One OF these
is the State Orphans Home, the
other is the State University, and
the third is the Pcnitentiary.

TO THE LADIES.

DOCTOR THOMAS would merely state
that he pays the utmost attention to Diseases
incidental to Females. In 1864 he received .
Special Diploma from the Royal College Of
Surgeons, England, signed by Drs. Robert Lee
and Arthur Fare, Physicians to their Royal
Highnesses the Princess Of Wales and the
Duchess of Edinburgh, attesting to his pro-
fciency and thorough knowledge Of Diseases
of Women. This Diploma can also be seen
in his office.

MIDNIGHT DISPATCHES

San Francisco, March 10 Trial
of Thos. Bonds tor the murder of
l. S. Beard, the noted baseball
player, commenced in the 18th Dis
trict Court this forenoon. The muir
der was committed in a saloon on
the corner of Francisco and Mason
streets, on the 10Th of November
last. The forenoon was mostly taken
up in empanneling the jury.
The matter of the German bond
holders of the California Pacific Rail-
road Company came ap to-day in
the U. S. Circuit Court. The Court
on petition of the Company, asked
for review of proceedings of the
District Court, in which on the Goth
of December last Judge Hoffman
issued an order denying the motion
on behalf of the Company in the
proceedings previously made to va
cate, to set aside and dismiss several
orders, to show cause therein and to
quash and set aside service thereof
and dismiss proceedings of Court,
the matter being argued at length by
counsel for bondholders.
Truckee, March l5.- Between 10
and IL O'Clock yesterday forenoon, a
millwright named Reed Shaw, who
was building sawmill at Sage Hen,
near Truckee, attempted suicide by
cutting himself with butcher-knife
four times, three cuts in the abdo-
men and one in the right thigh. His
wounds are very serious, and his
recovery is doubtful. Cause-liquor.
San Diego, March H. The two
Indians, Sordo and Jose de Cana,
who were to have been hung On the
10th INST, have been reprieved by
Governor Pacheco until June 18th.
The latter has made a confession,
acknowledging his connection with
other crimes, and duplicating others.
The reprieve has been granted on
request of the District Attorney, in
order to work up other mysterious
crimes which have been committed
in this county.
Tucson, A. r., March 10 The
mining news from all parts continue
most cheering. The development of
mines in Patagonia and Truman dis
tricts are very favorable and enco ur-
aging. Over one hundred men are
now at work in those districts. Col.
Berils has number of men en-
ployed in the Santa Rita mines. A
number of Nevada miners have WIS.,
tied those districts, and say they
never saw such rich deposits before.

STATE OF COLORADO.

The bill admitting Colorado as a
State having passed both Houses
of Congress, is now in the hands
of the President, and will doubt
less receive his signature. The
bill provides that the Territorial
Governor shall issue proclama-
ton for Constitutional Conven-
ton within ninety days from the
first of next September, and that
the Constitution shall be submitted
to the people in July, 1876. If the
Constitution should be ratified, of
which there is but little doubt, the
State may be admitted in time to
vote at the next Presidential cleo
ton, though not in time to
take part in the National Conven-
ton, unless by courtesy. Congress
will probably be in session in July,
1876, SO that the final formalities
of admission may be gone through.
Colorado was made a Territory in
1861, with an area of 104, 500
square miles, taken from the Ter
ritories of New Mexico and Utah,
the original Territory of Nebraska
and what was then the Territory of
Kansas. According to the census
of 1870, its population numbered
in that year 80, S64, and the num-
Der of children attending school in
the Territory was 2,6l7. The ad-
vocates of the bill assert that it
now contains population of $780,
600. Mr.. Hitchcock, during the
debate in the Senate, gave as a
reason for this opinion the increase
in the postal receipts of the Ter
ritory from $4,000 in 1870 to
$1O2, 900 for the fiscal year ending
last June. He also said that in
1870 there was not a single line Of
completed railroad in the Territory,
and now there are 735 miles of
completed railroad, built at cost
of over 100000. 1t thus appears
that the new State, according to
the estimate of its friends, contains
about the same number of people
as the District of Columbia.
When admitted, Colorado will rep
resent the thirty-eighth star in the
galaxy of the American Union.

WASHINGTON NOTES.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.-Indian Agent Ir
vine telegraphs that in q recent alteration q
the Cameron Agency, New Mexico, be wal
wounded in the hand by an Indian, who, at
tempting to escape, was shot by the guard
and hostilities might be looked for any mo-
ment. His wound prevented him from taking
an active part in the difficulty. He recon-
mends that the affairs there be placed IN
charge CT the military. The Commissioner
telegraphs back to put the military in posses
sion and give them hearty cooperation IN
bringing the Indians to subsection.
Official information from Liberia shows
thas in consequence of war with the natives
the Liberian colonists are suffering some OF
whom, in the interior, are in state OF star

College, in sympathy with their fellow-na-
tives, give them encouragement in their al
tacks.
Orders have been issued to close the De-
partments Friday out of respect to Vice
President Wilson.
Sales of gold by the Sub-Treasurer at New
York are postponed to Friday.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.-The Secretary OF
