Cnrvltan arrived at Nt-w York from Europe. Got. Uoldeu has afipoiutad wveu Ma jor Generals and twenty-eight Brigadier Generals of ths Krlt Carolina militia. One of the leading Boston papers pre dicts that Catrada will be independent of Br tish Government within a Tear. General Garfield was yesterday renominated ly the Radicals of the Nineteenth district. No opposition. A military company paraded at Boston a few days ago with twenty-two men bearing muskets, and twenty-three play-ins; on musical instruments. The City Council of St. Louis has am aw ed,p ordinance for the regulation of bawd; houses, based upon and containing many provisions of French, Belgian and other European laws on the subject. General Cox, the Secretary of the Interior, has received many courteous attentions during his visit to Massachusetts, and has made many friends. Boston TramtcripL The Boston Tiavtller believes that there is really danger of troubles on the northeast fishing stations, and it asks the Government to have war vessels in readiness to defend the interests and rights of onr citizens if they are interfered with. In the second week of June there were 131,944 persons in receipt of parochial relief in London, ot whom 82,t47 were in the work-honses and 99.027 were out-door paupers. There was an increase of 4,014 upon the numbers in the corresponding period of last year. Although, nominally, the terms are $400 at Vassar College, it is said that the extras and items not counted run np the bills of the paterfamilias to a figure which must exclude many of the class for whose particular benefit the pious founder of Vassar designed it. Large amounts of money were staked on the Lee making Cairo inside of three days. Her ran from Memphis to Cairo is quite a disappointment to her friends' the time being 18 hours and 48 minutes' In 1666 or 1967 she made the run in 16 hours and 36 minntes, 2 hours and 12 minutes less tin-e. A brief dispatch from San Francisco says that "762 Chinamen have arrived at that place within the past two days, and 8,142 since January I. This indicates that the wave of emigration is beginning to roll in from China with force and power. How can it be otherwise T There are 500,000 000 ef them in a country that can not support bo large a population as the United States. Here there are but 40,000,000 of people. President Barnard, of Columbia College, in a communication to the New York Evening Pest, makes the statement that the common belief in regard to the excessive cost ef artioialJy manufactures ic is quite erroneous; that its manufacture has long been profitably carried on in Paris ; that it can be manufactured in this country for less than a quarter of a cent per pound, and that it nay be delivered to customers at twenty dollars per tan, and then pay a fair profit. Heavy bets are being made among yacht men in New York on the race between the Cambria and Dauntless. Englishmen are betting on the Cambria even against the Dauntless, and Americans are generally betting among themselves on the time the Dauntless will make to New York. Captains of steamers joe arrived say the ocean is very rough, at present, and they think it will be impossible for the yachts to carry full sail. London U not a Paradise. Only 500,000 of the population attend public worship; 140,000 people (many women among them) are habitual gin-drinkers ; 200,000 individuals ape arrested yearly for being drank on the streets ; the men who live by gambling number 20,000 ; the known adult thieves 30,000, and the trained juvenile criminals 20,000. Amid this mass of evil, however, there is much good, as one will readily admit there ought to be. According to the Paris papers, the London theatre-goers have experience a new sensation, which exceeds in realism and freshness the most brilliant imaginings of Boncicanlt. It seems that a Miss Elvira H., at a performance at the Drury Lane Theatre, was seen to totter and fall. The curtain was lowered, then presently it rang np, and the happy event was announced to the audience, together with the usnal gratifying addendum that mother and child were doing well, all of which was received with frantic applause. The New York Timet considers " the evil of evils in the city of New York, whether in a moral or sanitary point of view, is the overcrowding of population in tenement houses. The sanitary authorities inform us that seventy-five per cent, of the zymotic or fermenting dis eases 01 the city such as scarlet lever, dysentery, diptheria and the like take their crigin in these crowded dens, and from them they are wafted to every quarter of the town." On the first of July throe important postal conventions went into effect, namely : The new postal treaty with the North German Union, reducing letter rate of postage from ten to seven cents by direct route, and fifteen to ten cents via England, to all the states composing the North German postal jurisdiction, including Austria, Luxemburg, &e. Also the new postal conventions with the ' Hawaiian Kingdom and North British Columbia respectively, fixing the prepaid postage on letters to each of theeeco-intries at six cents per single rate. The railroads propose to increase the rates on freights to make up for the redaction on travel. It is announced on the authority of the general freight agents of the principal western roads that westward bound freight rates will ) increased after July 1st, which is in season to levy the tax on all goods purchased in New York for the fall trade in the West. From the schedule of prices agreed upon to take effect on that date, first class freights; to-Chicago win be advanced from $1 12 to $1 50 per cwt.; to Cincinnati from $1 00 to SI 42 ; to Louisville from 91 23 to $1 73 ; to Qnincy, HB-noia, from $1 40 to $191: and to St. Louis from $1 40 to $1 91. A telegram from St. Louis says the Lee's time is three days, eighteen hours, fourteen minutes. Natchez's net time, dedncting all stoppages and delays, three days, seventeen noura, forty minntes. The Natchez was delayed about seven hours. Bus brought a full passenger trio Seventy-five thousand people turned out to greet tne ooasa a St. Louts. A ban quet was given to the captains of the boats at tne oouiuern Hotel last night Each, captain occnpaBU a head of the table. Speeches were made, and good feeling prevailed. The Natches is load ing for New Orleans. The Lee ran from New Orleans to Natchez, 200 miles, in seanteen hours and eleven minntes. The Natchez made the run in seventeen hours and fpur minntes. The two boats signaled to leave New Orleans at the same moment. The Natchez's crew untied her cable, while the mate of the Lea cut hers Wtn an axe.

Ooiautittee of the two bouses on the currency bill have jns agreed to the forty-five millions as provided in the Senate bill, and have added ten millions more, making forty-five mil lious, retiring only the forty-five milPuii of three per cents. The additional ten millions provided for is regarded as a slight expansion, but so gradual as to amount to but verv little: Tne redistri bution of twenty-five millions is retain ed, as is also the clause which provides for free banking on a gold basis. It is believed that both Houses will accept this compromise. SOUTHKRX PACIFIC RAIUIOAH. The Honse Pacific Railroad Committee to-dav completed the bill for the con struction of a railroad to the l'acilic 00 the 23d parallel, commencing at Marshall, Texas. They reduced the amount of the capital from one hundred millions to fifty millions of dollars, and leave the grade to be determined by the company. NALAItrKS.

A special to the Tribune says : It is ru mored and credited in official circles that Hamilton Fish has tendered bis resigna tion. Fish has been urging the President to accept his resignation, as he desires to retire from public life in this couutrv. The President has said that he would not permit him to retire if by any means he could retain turn in tne State Department, as he regarded his staying as a personal favor to himself. It is generally understood that Fish will succeed Motley at the Court of St. James. NEW YORK NOMINATIONS. There has been no executive session of the Senate since the nominations were sent in. They have not been referred. The nomination of Murphy goes to the committee on Commerce, of which Senator Chandler, of Michigan, is Chairman, who is in the habit of looking closely at the political record of all nominees who come before his committee. Efforts will be made to indnce the committee to report the nomination of Mr. Murphy back without any recommendation, and thus leave the contest to be fought out in the Senate. There is no question but that the fight will be a very earnest, if not a bitter one. Messrs. Davis and Hillbouse will be confirmed for their respective positions, as soon as they can be reached. FORTY-FIRST CONGRESS. Washixotos, Jnly IS, lero. SENATE. Mr. McCreery asked consent to take up the bill for the relief of seventy-five Kentuckians from political disabilities.

Mr. Wilson moved to set apart Thursday evening for consideration of the conference report on the army bill . Agreed to. The House river and harbor appropriation bill was taken up and the bill passed. Mr. Chandler, Chairman of the committee on Commerce, stated that many meritorious amendments had been suggested, bat the committee had reported back the House bill without amendment. He hoped the Senate would stand by the committee. Several amendments were agreed to for the improvement of Southern harbors, and one rejected for the appointment by the Secretary of War of three engineers to examine the bridges on the Ohio River, and report at the next session whether bridges do or will interfere with the free navigation. The bill was reported te the. Senate, and the amendments made in committee of the whole agreed to. Mr. Williams, from the committee on the Currency bill, reported that the Committee adopted the bill as passed by the Senate, except that the amount of new currency was fixed at fifty-four millions, instead of forty-five millions. Mr. Williams stated that the Comptroller of the Currency was to provide immediately for the distribution of this increased circulation of fifty-four millions, giving the Western States what they were entitled to under the existing law, and that as soon as the census returns for 1870 were in, redistribution was to be made. The report was adopted. The Senate resumed the consideration of the naval appropriation bill, and then took a recess. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Mr. Ferry reported the post route bill. Passed.

The Morning Pott has a telegram dated at leantsm, June 25, giving the particulars of a terrible massacre of Christians by the natives at Pekin, on the 21st of that month. The Count de Rochectonart, the French Secretary of Legation, and a number of priests and sisters of mercy, were ruthlessly slaughtered. The cathedral was also burned, and a number of Russians killed. A well informed correspondent says Prince Leopold, of Hobenzeliorn, has formally accepted the Spanish throne. The English Government approves, but France still objects. At a special meeting of the stockhold ers ot the Ureat Western railroad, ot Canada, to-day, the Directors were authorized to snbscrile all .the stock in an air-line railroad from Glencoe to Buff alo, and to proceed immediately with the con struction ot the road. The Government of Hungary urges the bishops of that conntry to resist to the last the dogma of infallibility. FRANCE. Paris, Julv 6. The Constitutionel, to day, says: We learn that the Government would consider the Spanish en thronement of the Prince of Hohenzollern as a check and menace to France. Under these circumstances the Government has decided to energetically oppnsa the project Prime Minister Ollivier gave a grand banqnet last evening. A great crowd of people were present, among whom were General Prim, Baron Werther, and the Prussian Minister. The latter left early in the evening, which fact gave rise to much comment, many asserting that France would have a just cause of war if the candidature of the Prince of Hohonzellern was persisted in. Yesterday afternoon, after his interview with the Emperor, M. Ollivier had interviews with the Duke ot Orammont, Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the Ambassador from Spain. The result of these meetings was a firm and energetic note to Baron Wer ther. Immediately on its receipt the Baron departed for Ems. to meet the King ot Prussia. There is considerable excitement in commercial circles here. The Bourse opened flat; rentes 71 francs, 50 centimes, or 95 centimes lower than the opening of yesterday. lhe l'aris lonrnals unanimously oppose the project of General Prim. PRUSSIA. Berlin, July 6.

Samuel Brannan bas sued Lelaud Stan ford and other directors and officers of the Central Pacific railroad, for other corporations. He alleges he subscribed and paid for two h uudred, shares of Cen tral Pacific stock and now owns them ; the defendants subscribed and agreed for six hundred and fifty shares, but said stock w as issued without consideration that the defendants, illegally acting as Directors of the Central Pacific, issued to themselves and others large amounts of stock without consideration ; said directors managed the affairs of tbe pqm-pauy for their individual benefit and to the detriment of the other stockholders. The plaintiff estimates the various sub sidies of the Company at Over one hun dred and fifty-six millions, and charges that only a part of the same was legit' raately expeuded; that the directors wrongfully converted the remainder to their own use. He charges a contract with a finance company organized under the name of Crocker & Co., through which the directors let contracts to them selves, in some instances at two hundred per cent, above the value of the work doue ; that the aggregate profits which the defendants realized amounted to seven millions. He claims that tbe profits of the contracts of the company should be divided pro rata among the stockholders. Tie gives a history of his eoftnbdtion w ith Wells, Fargo dr.

At the meeting of the Quarantine Com missiouevm yesterday, the committee ot merchants, headed by Kirkland, read a remonstrance against what they regarded as the exorbitant taxes put upon vessels arriving at this port. A sharp discussion took place between several of the mer chants amd Mayors Hall and Kalbfleiscb, and the Board finally adopted the rates as proposed by Dr. M. Bell. MORTALITY REPORT. It appears by the register of vital statistics, reported to the Board of Health, that the death rate of this city last week was higher than that of any corresponding week oT the past fifteen years. There were thirty-eight eases of death from sunstroke, or direct effects of the heat. A genuine case of Asiatic cholera, which resulted fatally, ocenrred in the Eighth ward. But one case of small-pox is reported. FATAL ACCIDENT. A platform crowded with children of the Roman Catholic Presbytery, at Westchester, New York, gave way on the eveuing of the 4tb, se the children were witnessing the discharge of fireworks, and precipitated the mass of human beings to the grounds.

He found the camps of the Utes a hundred miles south, and they are uow on the war path. Tbe evidence is that they are responsible for the recent depredations committed in that vicinity. Information from Fort Fetternian says that the Cheyennes are reported to have killed three white men near Sweetwater river recently. Red Cloud and band am camiied on Tongue river, north of Fort Fetterman. It is believed ontajde of the Indian ring that he is collecting his tribes together for the purpose of making war on tbe whites. Tub investigation into the affairs of the late Collector Bailey, of New York city, has been completed, and it is now known that the1 amount of his defalcation exceeds the sum of $600,000. His sureties are liable only to the amonnt of $100,000, and the Government therefore sustains a loss of half a million of dollars by the conduct of this ''vigorous and earnest'' officer. Throughout the whole affair there has been a determined effort to screen the defaulter. He has never been arrested, and his friends np to the last moment have insisted'that the deficit in his accounts was less than $100,000. Tennyson, after all, is to see and describe the glories of the solar eclipse. He has asked permission to join one oi the parties of observation which are going from England for the purpose. The station s will be at Gibraltar, Sicily aud Algiers, and the undertaking is to be under tbe joint supervision of the Royal Society and of the Astronomical Society. A total eclipse, seen by the laureate, and described in his verse, will be a memorable phenomenon, BliTLER AND THE COOLIES. The Oratorical Tournament at Woodstock, Connecticut. Itutlrr'a Mueaok on the Coolie nea. tion to the PreaiaWnl and ike Yankee Hi View Criticised hv Car-ernor Ilnwlry. of Connertient. At Woodstock, Connecticut, ou. the Fourtli, there was a grand oratorical die-.play before President Grant, intended for his benefit, and that of those simple minded children of nature, Connecticut Yankees, who were present by the thousands. F.s-Govcmor Woodford, of New York, Bcecher, lien Butler, the Russian Minister, Governor Huwley, and others, poured forth the dowel's of their eloquence. But it was Butler who made the ten strike, in a speech on the Chinese gneation, which, it will be remembered, obtruded itself on the United States Senate on the same day. In fact this prolt- liem is looming, up on all shades, and in all placos, these days. Butler seizes the coolie question as the avenue to the good will of the Massachusetts Crispins, and to Senator Wilsont seat in tke I'nited States Senate. His views on it are sound, no matter how much of roguery and demagogism may lie at the bottom of them. He took ground against the importation of Chi nese as merchandise for the benefit of the capitalists of his own State, and to the injury of the white mechanics. .Still he was very guarded in bis language. Here is the concluding paragraph of his speech : Would U not be wise for our statesmen to examine with care, to foresee, as far as heaven has permitted men to pierce the future, what .will be the effect, what the result, and where the end we shall reach by the importation by contract or purchase of laboriug men from any land, and, more than all that, from asemi-barbarous one ; meu who are to lie tasked laborers only, forever, and who are therefore not men, but merchandise ? Shall we wait until the system of contract labor has taken as deep root in our soil as that other system of servile labor had done before we foresee and cheek the evil t We deal not now with the industrial and economic view of the question, but with the far broader and grander one of its high political aspects. Let ns not, by any means, hinder or prohibit the voluntary coming to this country of all men who choose to add their labor, their ener- ies and their industry in aid of onrown. d one ever complained of the negro who came here of his own free will. From his so coming arose neither wrong nor danger to freedom or the perpetuity of free institutions; but the negro,brought uere as a commercial speculation, wrought the so great difficulties from which the country has so suffered. The highest pursuit in this country. is intelligent labor. It is not reputable to be without regular and constant employment. Who so works with head or hands is hero tho nobleman. The cunning artisan is the prince. All here are equal all are sovereigns. It is, therefore, the highest province of statesmanship, the loftiest duty of patriotism, the hope of freedom, and the promise of tho regeneration of nations to take care that in America labor be neither degraded nor enthralled. On the same stand with Butler and Grant and Bcecher, and the rest of the politicians, clerical, military and shyster, was Goveruor Hawley, of Connecticut, a prominent New England Radical. At the close of Butler's speech, he came to the front and said be wished to reply to some of the General's remarks touching the subject of Chinese immigration : "I don't know,'' he said, ''how to go to work to lock the doors of the United States. Wo have done what we could and stopped American slavery. I wish the Chinese bad a better education in regard to American institutions. I wish they could bring with them a better religion ; but I believe they all can read. With our dag over me, and the New Testament in my hand, I say, let them oonie. tie wisneu that tney were in better condition ; but he did not see how he could shut the gates against any downtrodden people who wished to flee to the protection of American institutions. He said ho would occupy the few remaining moments in urging on his fellow citizens tbe great importance of keeping open the gateways of the United States to the free access of all our immigrating people. He would ever guard Our interests against the least approach to the slave trade, but could see no injury to any of our usefnl institutions in encouraging industrial immigration to onr shores from every part of the earth. He wonld keep the gate open and tbe stream as pure as possible, aud let it flow. We mnst counteract any evil that may threaten ns by birr living examples oi good. We must impress a pure and undefiled religion on all who may come to ns ; and if" any go back to their own lands they will carry to their neighbors tne blessings of our free insti tutions. He would not dare to lock the inviting gates of America against a suffering world. General Butler seemed somewhat un comfortable at those remarks, and said to the Chairman, "I want to reply to that," but tbe band, in honor of the Russian Minister, played the " Russian Hymn.' LYNCH LAW IX KlttV An Apprentice Whipped la Death The mnrtlerer Hanged by Cilizena From, the Lawrence (Kansas) Journ il. June 30 A gentleman who came from Iola, yes terday morning, gave ns the particulars of a most atrocious murder that was committed hy a'farmer liv iug near Humholdt, aud the summary hanging of the mur derer hy citizens of the locality. The particulars, as they were narrated to us, are ahout these : There was a farmer named Dosen. who for several years had heen living with his family ou a farm near H umboldt. Ho had a bey. some twelve or fourteen years of age living with him that had heen bound to him for a term of years. It seema that he had been in the habit of cruelly whipping this boy, aud the lad had been frequently heard by neighbors to cry murder when being punished, hut tliey took no special notice of it, as they thought the boy yelled to make Dosen cease whipping bim. About two months ago, the monster again whipped the boy most unmercifully. Throwing tbe lad down, he pnt his foot upon his neck, beating him all the time. Soon after this the boy disappeared, and the brute told the people of the neighborhood that since the last whipping he had run away. Not thinking of such a thing as that a murder had been committed, the neighbors gave it not much attention, under the Impression that the boy would return again. The boy did uot return again, however, and f)oseu after a while commenced to fill up he well that was iu his yard. A niur-tuur of suspicion began to run through the neighborhood, and these suspicions were disenssod. Two months passed away ; the boy did not return; the well in the meantime had been filled up, and the monster of the cruelty no donbt brentliml freer, and he fancied that he had destroy - ed all traces of his damning crime. He was questioned by the citizens and gave some paltry, exense for filling the well, persisting that the boy had absconded. This did not satisfy them. There is something that always seems to speak silently to a -people, and tells them when a great crime bas been committed in their midst, and this same silent something won hi not permit the people of that locality to rest easy until they had. learned all, Keeping a close watch upou the movements Of Dosen, tliey commenced the work of reopening the well. This doue, the mystery was soon solved. At the bottom of the well was the mutilated body of the murdered boy, the marks of the lash yet visible upom his lifeless form. Dosen was immediately taken into custody. He finally oonfessed bis guilt, from-which it appears that this monster in human form, this fiend who wore the guise of humanity, had been iu the habit of cruelly beating the poor and friendless boy whom be bndl pieogea uimseu to lie a protector. The last time he flogged him the boy was 'thrown fo the ground, and the wretch held him to the earth with his boot-heel, while he whipped bim to death, after which the body was thrown into the well Dosen was taken to loia and lodged in. jail. Before daylight Monday morning, or rather at sometime between midnight and daylight, the jailor was aroused by a party who said they bad a horse-thief whom they wished to deliver to the jailor. That officer went, to tbe door, when a crowd rushed upon him and commenced to ask and search for Dosen. He was found, and hurried off from the jail to Elm creek, some four or five miles from Iola. Here the miserable culprit was hanged, and his body left swinging in the air. Onr informant states that it was hanging there Tuesday morning. Eynch law is to be deprecated where the crime committed is the most aggravated and atrocious ; but it does seem if ever there was a case where Judge Lynch was justified in dealing summarily with a murderer, this ie one. .EPOTIS.H. A Remarkable CriUaeisna on k resident Grnnt by President Jeara. From the Carroll ton (Ky.) Democrat.) An original letter of Thomas Jefferson can be seen at this office. It was written by hint in reply to an application of Mr. Horatio Turpin, of "Powhatan county, near Manchester, Virginia," for the posi" tion of postmaster at Richmond, which was then the second largest city in the United States. Though declining to give Mr. Turpin the appointment, on account of his relationship, it served to increase, if possible, that gentleman's regard for the great Democratic chief, whose judgment and conscience wonld not permit him to depart from the law of conduct he had prescribed for himself, even in favor of a near relative, one of whose worth and fitness he was fully persuaded. The letter was carefully preserved by its recipient and by his daughter, tho wife of Hon. Jessee D. Bright, in whose possession it has been for the last twenty years, and who, as well as lief distinguished husband, treasures it as a precious memento of their illustrious kinsman, and for the noble sentiments con tained in it. It reads ai follows: Washington, June JO, 1ST0. Dear Sir: Your favor of June 1 has been duly received. To a mind like yours. capable, in any question of abstracting it from its relation te yourself, I may safely hazard explanations which I have generally avoided to others on questions of appointment. Bringing into office no desires of making it subservient to the advancement of my own private interests, it has been no sacrifice, by postpon ing them, to strengthen the confidence of my fellow-citizens ; but I have not felt eqnal indifference toward excluding merit from office, merely because it was related to me. However, 1 have thought it my duty so to do, that my constituents may lie satisfied tnat, in selecting persons for the management of their affairs, I am influenced by neither personal nor family interests, aud especially that the tietd ot public otnee will not be perverted by me into a family property. On this subject I had the benefit of useful lessons from my predecessors, had I needed them, marking what was to be im itated and what avoided. Bat in truth the nature of our government is lesson euonirb. Its energy depending mainly on the confidence ot the people in their chief iiiagiBiinLe, iuukcm 11 ui9 uiiLy 1-0 upare nothing which can strengthen him with that confidence. The day is not distant when my rela tions may fairly, come into competition for appointment, and when that may be a circumstance ot favor, wmcti now opposes their receiving appointments. Had my judgment and conscience permittee me, in any case, to depart from the law of conduct I have prescribed for myself, in no case certainly should I have been more likely to do so than in yours, be cause no one is more persuaded of your worth and fitness. The same confidence in you, however. secures me from all unkind imputation on your part, and justifies my assurance to you of constant friendship and respect. 1HOS. JEFFEBSON. BRIGHAM VOl ; WEALTH. Daabta ns to the Whereabout of the (littering jJIillians. Tlie prodigious wealth of tho Salt Lake autocrat, Brigham Young, bas lteen flaunted in tfa face of the world for ten years, as an oflset to his multifarious crime against civilization and humanity He has been held np to view as one of the ablest executive mintls in the nation; a man capable of vast achievements; a mler who moved the one hundred and fifty thousand people of his dominions like automatons, and made all things within the radius of his power move to his bidding. V e nave been told tnat he was the second largest depositor in the Bank of England, bad millions in Lon don real estate, and costly buildings without number; held tbe balance of money power in New York and other cities, the lowest figure of his enormous gains being placed at seventy millions. The Corrine Reporter tells how it was done, by whom, and for what purpose. It penetrates to the core of this beautiful story, and gives some interesting details, which ve take the liberty to reproduce in a condensed form. Twenty-two years ago Brigham Toung, with ft few hundred moneyless bnt bigoted followers, entered the Salt Lake Valley. ' Thoir first years were full of toil and suffering. They continued poor up to tbe arrival of Johnson's army, sent there by' Floyd and Ilnchanan. This expedition pnt money into their purses, and revived a thousand paying enterprises. Then came the war of rebellion, which was quickly followed by the gold-hunters of Montana and Idaho. For the first time since their lodgement in the valley, the Mormons began to prosper, and Brigham to grow rich nnder these promising combinations. Thus it is seen that he must have made his seventy millions, or the major part of it, if at all, since 1862. Out of the funds thus acquired he has been compelled to keep a number of missionaries in the field, at home and abroad, and pay out large sums for the expense of getting foreign sheep in the fold. His tithings cannot be over a hundred and fifty thousand per annum, and we doubt U tney are tuat mucn. rtis toreign de 1 posits cannot lie large, possibly a million or two, but he lias a tight grasp on estates, goods and effects of his subject which may amount to thirty or iorty miUions-ecertainly not more. Salt Lake City, to-day, is not so eKpensively built as Denver. ' The buildings are all adobq, and most of them are of tlie cheaper kind. Take away the forest ofshade trees and the town would have no attractions whatever. If with these facts in view, the world cannot figure out where Brig-ham's seventy millions came from, it must find sharp mathematicians, and get; deeper into the archives of, Mnrniondon than we have been able to do.
