acceptance and Ventilation Of New Ideas.

Acceptance and Ventilation of New Ideas.
1t was with American readers that
Herbert Spencer first got a hearing,
and he still finds here the largest and
most general appreciation. Carlyle
was first accepted by American read
ers. Comte and the Positive Philoso-
ply have probably found as wide an
acceptance in this country as in Eng
land. All the leading science writer's
of Europe are us widely read and stub
led in America as elsewhere. 1t is in
the United states that the only maya
zine in the English tongue devoted to
speculative philosophy is published.
In the west there is-a Platonic club and
a periodical devoted to the purposes of
the association. Emerson has been
one of our lights; Bronson Alcott and
his "Conversations" are peculiarly
American in their character, the Con
cord School OF Philosophy evinces a
very remarkable taste and aptitude for
philosophic study. In truth, with us
there is an over-fondness for new gen.
Civilizations, for new theories, for new
speculations on government, science,
law, and society. Much of what is
written and advocated in these direc-
tons is crude. The new theories are
not always rational exceptions they
are usually hasty and i'll digested; but
the innumerable essays, pamphlets and
| books that are written On speculative
theories ---only publishers and editors
| have anything like an idea of their ex-
tent, for probably not one in a hundred
of the productions of this nature that
arc written ever gets in to type-evince
the ferme ntation that is going on, the
! domination of ideas, and the curiosity
prevalent in all ranks in regard to
| them. Appleton's Journal.

ALLEGED HORSE STEALING.
Languishing in Jail in Default of
Bonds.

In the examination, held yesterday morn
ing before Judge Wilcox, of John Brewer,
the man charged with being the unlawful
possessor of a horse belonging to Joe Hoot-
man, the defendant, by counsel, moved to
quash the complaint, which was overru'ed by
the Court. The defense refused to offer any
evid9nce, and the Court held Brewer under
81, 800 bonds to await the action of the Grand
Jury of Silver Bow County, and IN default
of bail he now lies in the County Jail.
In an interview yesterday afternoon with
Brewer he maintained his innocence of any
in his possession since the first of March. He
readily answered all questions asked him,
and, in the course of the interview stated
that he had been working in Belmont for the
past two years; that he was well known there,
and when his trial came off could get good
witnesses as to his character. He stated that
two weeks ago he, in company with a man
named Daniels, started from Belmont for
the WOOD River country on a prospecting
trip; that when he reached Butte Mr.. Sigsby

A MINING QUESTION.
Christ One of the Partners in a Park
City Mine.

A reliable mining operator who came down
from Park City recently tells of an extraor-
binary claim located in Thames Canon. The
usual notice is posted up, and appears to be
IL in regular style. and there are three part
ners in the claim, but here is where the curl
Gus part of the business comes in. The no
tice posted up informs the public that 500
feet OF the claim is the property of f. r.
Walkers 800 feet Of &. q. SNYDER, and the 9TH
er 500 of Jesus Christ. While il is possible
that somewhere IN the world there may be an
individual bearing that name, it seems proba-
bic from the knowledge Of the peculiar doc
trine he Id by them, as spiritualists, that the
last named PARTNER in the venture
is the Savior Of man. Now, in
case the mine never proves valuable. this
partnership may run along all right to the
end of time, but the question arises, should
it prove rich aud the firm should want to sell
out, how they would be able to give a deed
tor the 500 feet belonging to the third party.
as it is not likely that they would be able to
secure a power Of attorney from him. This
Thrill CT the claim would also appear liable to
be jumped at any time, as one of the require
ments in such cases is that the party locating a
claim shall be a citizen of the United States.
and while in one sense this citizenship might
be admitted it is hardly such as to stand in a
court of justice. 1t is probably the first time
so extraordinary a claim has been located and
it presents some very interesting and kno,ty
problems for a lawyer to puzzle his brain
