framed and sent to Washington; but
Congress- refuseds,to recognize the new
State, and in September organized the
country occupied by the Mormons into
the territory of Utah, of which Brigham
Young was appointed Governor by Presi-
dent Fillmore. In the following year
the Federal judges were forced BY threats
Of violence from Brigham Young atoa quit
Utah, and the laws Of the United States
we're openly defed and subverted. This
led to the removal of Brigham y oung,
and the appointment of Col. Steptoe, Of
the United States army, as governor.
Col. Steptoe arrived in Utah in August
1854, with a battalion of soldiers; but
such was the state Of affairs in the terri
tory that he did not deem it prudent to
assume the Office of governor, and after
wintering in Salt Lake he formally re-
signed his post and removed with his
troops to California. In a sermon
preached in. the TABERNACLE at Salt Lake
City on the Sunday after Col. Steptoe's
departure, Brigham Young said: Is am
and will be governor, and no power can
hinder it, until the Lord Almighty says:
" Brigham, you need not be governor any
longer Most Of the civil officers who
were commissioned about the same time
with Col. Steptoe arrived in Utahsa few
months after he had departed. They
were harassed and terrified like their pre-
decessors. In February, 1856, a mob Of
armed Mormons, instigated by sermons
from the heads Of the church, broke into
the courtroom of the United States dis
trict judge, and at the pointof the bowie
knife compelled y udge' Drummond to "a
ioutn his court stae de. Soon atterward
all the United States officers, with the ext
ception Of the Indian agent, were forced
tor flee from the territory.
These and similar outrages at length
determined President Buchanan to super
|3s8de Brigham Young in the Office Of Cow
|ernor, and to send to Utah military force
to protect the federal officers andsto COM
pei obedience to the laws. The Mormons
attempted to Justify their treatment Of
the United States officials, by alleging

Judging from our Washington dis
patch, received late last night, it would
seem that the assassination (so-called)
of Packard was put up job, originated
In Washington by Kellogg and Pitkin,
to play upon the tuneful ear OF his ex-
cellency, Gen. Grant. AS the murderer
co has been sedulously hid, and partic-
ulars concerning the affair have been
closely concealed from the press-at
least, so far as the DEMOCRAT is con-
cerned--it is very difficult to arrive at a
conclusion. At all events, Gen. Grant
has again found occ aston to speak his
mind and the carpet-baggers are badly
snubbed.

those at Washington who seem to hold
the destinies OF this miserable State In
the hollow OF their hands.
The yearning, imploring hope Of this
people is that the Electoral Commits
sion will realize, as we do, the terrible
peril in which this community stands,
and that the fullest and completest
justice will be done. Indeed, did Lou
isiana feel that her prayer could call
from the cold and stolid hearts Of the
men now sitting in that high Tribunal
and representing there the majesty
and splendor OF the highest court in
Christendom, that beneflcent and heal
ing spirit of justice which alone can
save, not only the material, but the
more sacred social and Christian instf-
tutions OF this land from utter de-
moralization, she would fall down
before them upon her knees, as hum
bly, and prayerfully as Pygmalion knelt
before the marble statue OF his love.

A long time after 1t was we'll known
that the Returning Board had thrown
out 10, 600 votes for Tilden and Nichols.
the clerical error in Vernon, now per-
haps the most damaging case against
the board, was undeteeted and unob-
served; it seemed such.a small matter.
Only the other day, another clerical
error was detected in the count OF
the board, that had gone unobserved
for months, and came very nearly alto
gether escaping detection, as the mat
ter was small one and did not affect
the presidency.
In ward Z, parish Of Calcasieu, s..
Hyatt and W. P. Simpson were candi-
dates for Justice Of the Peace. Simp-
son received III votes and Hyatt 8, but
the board, in tabulating the votes.
credited it enormously and elected
Hyatt, to whom, in consequence, a CON-
mission was sent by Kellogg.
The other day, in looking over the
vote, the mistake was discovered and at
once corrected by q commission from
Gov. Nichols. The wroaq is now fully
remedied and Mr.. Simpson de jttre and
de fueto Justice Of the Peace.
The affair is a small one. 1t affects
only petty Office and few votes; but
1t shows the utter incompetency OF the
board, and shows how little it was to be
trusted. It scarcely probable that the
members Of the board changed the vote
for the purpose Of eleeting the wrong
man; they had grander scheme OF
hand-the election Of a bogus Presi-
dent by throwing out thirteen thou
sand votes; it Is much more likely that
some of the boards clerks, from per-
sonal or pecuniary motives, made this
clerical error and usurped the Return
ing Boards right Of electing officials
for cur people. Wherever it be, this
error demonstrates conclusively that
not even in the most insignificant mat
tiers can the Returning Boards figures
be trusted; they cannot be trusted in
the small matter OF a justiceship; can
they be trusted to elect a President?

and made many attempts to whistle.
His room was pleasant, his chair com

about, and finally sprang up with
groan. Behind him was a small
closet where his bachelor odds and
ends were hastily thrust, and now be
jerktd the door open and eagerly ex-
amined the interior.
"Such tool!" he calculated, as he
slammed the door, taking up book
resolutely, determined to read.
What was the matter with Mr.. Bul.
bo? He appeared to be well, being
rosy and active. He was pleasant
