Judge Boren,an,s Charge.

Judge Boreman of the third district
court of Utah, in charging the grand Jury
on the 18th, admonished them to indict
a number Of individuals implicated in
swindling the government out Of terri.
torial lands by perjury and illegal voting.
He particularly instructed the jury to
indict every leader, proclaimer, or insti.
gator of polygamy. as they have in every
way possible shielded and prevented its
punishment, and came into court to DENY
it. He said that po]ygamyb was loath-
some ulcer and degrading crime, not en-
anating from any religion, but fit only
for the darkest days anterior to the dawn
Of civilization, causing the Mormons' bit.
ter hostility to free schools. Continuing
in this strain, the judge concluded by
saying that the government was how in
earnest and the people must recognize
this fact. Polygamy had existed so long
by the forbearance and generosity of the
government. He said it was nonsense for
the Mornons to fight against 100000
Of people, which they will soon realize.
The United States is with them in pros.
perity but not in polygamy

A SINGULAR Story.

A strange story is reported from
Spain. A detachment of Alfonsist sol.
diers recently discovered in secluded
part Of a mountain chain cavern which
was inhabited by robbers, who had taken
advantage of the civil war in order to ply
their criminal avocations. An alcove was
attached to this subterranean dwelling,
the door Of which the soldiers broke
open. They were astonished to find the
department so decently furnished, and
provided with books, flowers, and even a
piano. In an easy chair sat venerable
old man. The soldiers Intercepted him,
but obtained only incoherent replies. 1t
has been ascertained, from the confession
of one Of the robbers, that the old man
was the cashier Of banking firm at
Bourgos; that they had broken into the
bank, and stolen the safe, and taken the
cashier with them, in hopes that he
would assist them to open the safe. Dur.
ing the retreat, which was marked by
many adventures, the intrepid old man
succeeded in evading the vigilance of his
guardians for a short time, and secretcd
the safe in place where he would be
able to recover it afterward. When the
oooty was 1ulSSeu, anu Tue TODOefS tailed
to induce the cashier to reveal to them
the place where it was concealed, they
revived the proceedings of the famous
chGfeurs by roasting the feet of their
victim in order to extort a confession.
But the inflicted tortures had different
effect. The man got mad; and it was
with the object of restoring him to reason
that the robbers bestowed the utmost
attention on him, in hopes that when he
recovered MS reason he would reveal to
them the place where the safe was con.
eealcd,
