DEVSNogm
, Mr. lanouousan„Golonial „Minister offing ,
'land, has addressed a significant circular to
'the Governor of every BritiskColOPY, strongly.
urging each as not to neglect, .that reasonabffi,
amount of warlike preparation dnrinc`peacep!
which it is desirable WA,' triery*ter4
maintained," and addintwhitkis true
that the state of defence in which each co
lony is maintained must have a great influence
upon the general resources of the empire du
ridg war. c=They will," he says, "be a source
of weakneakin so far as tale noceadary for the
land and sea farces t Of the - mother country to
dead theiti againacjiggresilidt, and'it source
of strength if, while they are able to repel any
ordinary Wells of, an enemy's squadron, they
will afford shelter and support to Our own
forces." He desires; also, that as the defence
of the colonies, from whattiver source main
tained, form part of the defences of the em
pire, the British Minister of War should have
on record exact ini:ormation as to the state of
defence in which' each colony is kept. Of
course, it is known', in London, what amount
of regular soldiers garrisons each colony, what
they.want to know, is the amount and efficiency
of the local troOpi, and the, condition of the
artillery, and other munitions of war entrusted
to the colonies by, the Home Government.
Thislooking after the defenbes thus exactly
is precisely. what ;Might to have been done
years ago; and would' have been done if the
Duke of Wm.irprorox's advice .had been fol
lowed. But when ho said «in time of peace
.provide for war,". he was sneered at, people
shrugged their 'shoulders and sail that, like
Miwirmenomm, he,was falling into dotage, and
that, as far as Europe went, Waterloo.had put
a quietus upon warfare for the next half cen
tury. The Duke died, but his words remain.
War did break out and' found England linable
to conquer, except With a:111 trout` France, and
tip present condition of affairs•ls anchlhat she
i 0 pledged to carryon a war with China, has
to reconquer India, and may be in, the middle
of air European war befbre the ides of March
crime round again. She does very well to in- ,
qnire into the state of her colonial defetMeg, as
her colonies aro very assailable points. In
the event of a war with this country—which
would ben vontjugency to 'be deplored—we
suspect that some of the Brittih West India
islands would change masters.
What England contributes to the military
charges of the Colonies we know not, but a
recent Parliamentary return shows that she
does not contribute one shilling to the civil
government in Australia, (New South \V.ales,
Victoria, South Australia, Tasmania, and New
Zealand,) Nova Scotia, New Brunawick, New
foundland, and,Vancouver's .Island. Each of
these dependencies supports itself, and the
vastest of all—Auitraliais so thoroughly im
bued with Democracy, that We should not be
snrprided, any slay, to hear of her having de
.elared her Independence, and becorte a -Re
public. In fulness of tithe, perhaps, BritiSh
North America may do the same, unless, in
deed, it be elevated• to a Kingdom, with
tine of the royal princes at its head. •

.P.ROVIDING WORK.
[For The Pres4.l
A valuable suggestion, originally made in a
communication to your paper, has been reiter
ated in a letter to Councils, from a citizen who
.pledges• himself to a donation of $l,OOO Maid
of the plan indicated. It is so well-timed, so
judicious, and feasible, that yon will do the
community no ordinary service by forwarding
it by your influence. It is to open subscrip
tion books, so that out citizens may contribute,
in amounts large or, small—the money to be
devoted to the prosecution of .public works,
say the grading and laying out of the. Park,
above Fairmount, and of the Hunting Park.
Wealthy and public-spirited men wore found
willing'to • contribute largely lo the purchase of
these grounds, and many equally public-spirited
and less wealthy citizens will cheerfully con
tribute smaller sums for their improftment ;
especially with the additional object now in
view, of, providing work for those who need it.
Such d subsCription once set on foot, and kept
before the public by the daily publication of
the amounts contributed, would soon roach a
large amount:
In no way can money be bestowed with so
great a certainty of its reaching proper subjects
of benevolence. Daily subscriptions aro now
making, to be dispensed as a mere gratuity,
iltrOugh the machinery of ward committees,
who will have difficulty in discriminating be
tween the suffer& from the times and the vol
untary and habitual mendicant. By the scheme
suggested, the real touchstone of desert—the
willingness to work—will be applied to the
able-bodied; it will be found whether any
"prefer to starve rattier than -take lower

WpOIVBII.'S PIettPLIMITY.—A disturbance of
a somewhat unmet character took place yesterday
Morning, at the dwelling of Mr. Thomas Pother
gill, a fine old gentle Man of dirty-five, who has
beeo a widower for eighteen months. Mr. Pother
gill, having become tired of. his solitary condition,
advertised for a, wife, stating, wording to mis
took, the qualifications which applioante for the
situation were required to possess. The advertise—
Mont could not have boob more than an hour before
thepublie, when a brisk widow, Mrs. Rachel Mor
rison by name, might have been Beeraseending the
steps of Mr. Pother - gill's residence, in Eighth street
This lady, remembering the proverb that " the
early bird catches the worm," presented herself
for lho advertiser's inspection almost as soon as
there was daylight enough'to answer the purpose;
and, to reward her business-like alacrity, she
proved to be the Bret competitor for the prize.
Mr. Fothergill, being a man of mercantile
habits, is very prompt at making a bargain, and,
moreover, is not very hard to please., Raving ex
amined Mrs. Morrison's credentials, ho seemed to
decide that she would suit him exactly, and the
whole affair was about to be ooneluded, to the sat
isfaction of all parties, when a hard pull at the
door-bell announced another arrival. Almost im
mediately, a second lady entered the room and
glanced around apprehensively, as if afraid that
she had come too late. She was a thin, elderly
female, whose name afterwards proved to be Miss
Noama Price. "Are you the gentleman who
advertised for a wife ? " said Miss• nice, 'as
soon as she entered. Before Mr. Pothorgill
could reply, Mrs. Morrison answered for him;
"Yes, madam, he advertised; but I reckon he's
supplied." "I spoke. to the gentleman him
self, madam," answered Mies Price, sharply," and
I suppose ho knows hie own mind." "lie madea
declaration of his intentions before you came,"
said Mrs. Morrison. " I think you must have mis.
understood him, madam; persons at your time of
life are apt to bear imperfectly," answered Miss
Price. "You appear to be very anxious to change
your condition, madam," said Mrs. Morrison.
" You seem to bo much in want of a husband, too,"
said Miss Price, " I never found it difficult to got
ono," exclaimed Mrs. Morrison; "and I wish yell
to know that I have had two already." •'
cried Miss Price, "I see your husbands were much
to be .pitied, and I don't wonder that their lives
were of short duration."
While thbi altercation was going on baleen tile
ladies, Mr. Fothergill looked and listeneewith ex
treme embariassmont. Possibly he could have
been happy with either, "were the other door
'charmer away"—and he seemed totally unable to
decide whiCh deserved his 'preference. The coli
•test between Ike rival candlditcs was carried on
with increasing bitterness, until the hand of Miss
Price, while performing an energetic gesture, hap
.pened to touch the somewhat prothberant nose of
Mrs: Morrison,. What followed we would gladly
4appreas, bat, for the sake of making an accurate
report, it is necessary to say that the bonnets of
both ladies were demolished, and their faces rather
badly scratched. Mrs. MorrisOn made a charge of
assault and battery against, Miss Price. That the
scene wo have described made some impression on
the mind of Mr. Fothergill rutty be Judged from
the circumstance that when giving in his evidence
at the Mayor's office, be signified his determina
tion to remain single for at least eta months longer.

On Saturday, the 31st ult.,. the absorption of

demand fqr money was exhibited, and 9 per cent
was freely offered for loans on stooks without Sue.

The Tunes' city article remarks: "Confidence

the Bank of England, was kept as a oliday at the
stook exchange. Consols, however, wore nominally
quoted at 80.1e00, the heaviness being attributed
to the unsatisfactory nature of the news from
America by the Niagara. In the discount market
the demand ,vas rather less pressing, and in some
eases choice bills wore negotiated at a fraction belt
low the bank minimum rate. ..I'..
The Times' city article says, "Some acceptances

On Tuesday, the 3d, the market for consols was
hetivy, and the closing quotation was 891a891 for
money and account. The discount market was
unchanged, but money was rather easier to be ob
tained at the Stook Exchange, although at the
bank there was no diminution in the pressure.
Over X 200,000 in' gold hod been drawn from the
bank since,Saturday; and an apprehension pre
vailed that a further rise in the rate of discount
to 9 per cent. would be the consequegee.
Owing to the holiday on the BM6k Ixchange,

to the immense pressure (12,000 tons) upon'the

ImpontANT rnolt CARSON VALLEY—EXODUS OF
THIS MORNONS-RENEWAL OF INDIAN MASSA-
The subjoined letter we find in the columns of
the Democratic State Journal:
GENOA, CARRON WALLET. I
October let, 1857.
EDITOR JOURNAL : From a visit to the Mormon
camp on the 26th ultimo, the day of their moving
on their journey to Salt Lake City, we are able to
furnish you with the following summary of facts:
Through the courtesy of Mr Hamilton, commis
sary of the train, we learned that the company
consists of 995 souls-350 men, and the balance
women and children—having in their possession
,710 head of live stook, consisting principally of
horses, tonics, and oxen, and 149 wagons, the
estimated value of which, together with goods
and money, amounts to $193,100, 'of which $23;-
000 is cash, in the hands of ithe
The train is divided into three divisions, of fifties,
commanded by Judge Loveland, Capt. Lytle and
Capt. , which divisions are subdivided into
tens, each having a captain or commander. It is
the intention to travel in separate divisions, to
;Bora guff:Mont feed for the stock, until they reach
the seat of Indian difficulties, on the Humboldt,
when they will move together en maw, to insure
protection from attacks by the hostile Indians, who
have boon so troublesome to the emigration during
the present season.
The train left camp, in Eagle Valley, about ten
o'clock on Saturday, the 25th ult., and travelled
to the Carson river, a few tulles below the mouth
of Gold Calion, whoro orders wore given by the
'leaders not to move until satisfactory settlements .
were made between the Mormons leaving and
the Gentiles with whom they had dealings, and
it is a fact worthy of especial notice, that, with
the exception of one or two instances, the Mor
mons paid their debts and fulfilled their coatrsots
with credit to themselves, individually and fra
ternally.
The Mormons go stocked with provisions, ammu
nition, itu., calculated to last them a year. Their
destination is Salmon river. in Washington Terri
tory, where they intend forming a settlement, ex
tending north into the Russian'possessious. Their
leaving so suddenly has been sensibly felt bitra-
Oars in the valleys, but their places are being
filled up by honest and industrious emigrants, who
aro settling here to make it their future home.
Many orthe Mormon homesteads have bean pur
chased 1?t, low. rotes by, speculators, and, in our
opirdOn; thbie will never be a better opportunity
afforded those who wish to procure good stpdk and
agricultural farnte region of eittntriy than
at resent. Emigrants ate stoppiag 'their 'iltenk
hero for the winter in great numbers. and they are
doing remarkably well. Stock keeps in good eon
'dition ou the range during the winter season with
out any attention whatever.

,A telegraphic despatch to the Statr Journal
gives the following important intelligence from
Carson Valley :
PLACERVILLE, October 4-4 P. M.
By special express from Carson Valley, we are
in receipt of important news. Tho murder of two
more of the citizens 'of Carson Valley by the
Washo Indians has caused the moat intense ex
citement. A public Meeting line been held, and
petitions drawn tip and signed, imploring Governor
Johnson ler aid in men, arms, and ammunition,
The Pah Utah chiefs had.pledgod their assistance
to help Angli) the Washos.

dians near Goose Crook. Two Abliotts were wound
ed, and they lost twenty Need of stook at the same
time. They visaed the Mormons' train jutt going
on the four•mile desert, getting along !Indy. A
large number of horse and mules have been miss•
ing since the exit of the Mormons. Parties have
gone in chase, on the drunk ofi the Mormons. A

TIIP. MASSACRE OP EMIGRANTS ON TIIE.PLAiNS-THE
MORMONS SUPPOSED TO BE AT TIIE BOTTOM OP.IT.
The Los Angeles Star gives the following addi
tional details with' referehoe to the horrible mas
sacre of an emigrant train .on the plains by the
Indians, of which werecently gave the substance :
" The soone of tho massacre is differently desig
nated as the Santa Clara carton, the Mountain
Springs . , and the Mottptain * Meadows. But all
agree in locating it near the rim of tho Great
Basin, about fifty riffles from Cedar City, the most
southern of the Mormon settlements, and three
hundred miles from Salt Lake City. Of a party
of about ono hundred and thirty porsbns, only fif
teen infant children were saved. The amount
was given by the Indians themselves to the Mor
mons at Cedar City, to which place they brought
the children, who were purchased from them by
the people of that
2'he Star prefaces the letter of J. W. Christian,
giving an account of the massacre; with the fol
lowing remarks:
" The wrilerseems to intimate that the Mormons
will be hold responsible for the murder, and in this
respect he is fully borne out by present indica
tions' for a general belief pervades the public
mind hero, that the Indians were instigated to
this crime by the 'Destroying Angels' of the
church, and that the blow fell on these emigrants
from Arkansas, In retribution of the death of ?Ar
ley Pratt, which took plane in that State, The
truth of the matter wtH not he known until the
Government male an investigation of the affair.
This should be done. to place the bigamist tba.
right, quarter, as well as to inflict chastisement op
the numoditillis actors in the fearful tragedy, who
are reported to be the Santa Clara tribe of In
dians.".

Dates are to I.4eptember 23th. The revolutionary
movements in this Republic have assumed a more
general charaotor, and eDt. Linares has assumed
the title of Proviiienal .President, and taken the
field against the Constitutional President, General
Cordova. The cities of La Paz. Orura, Coeabamba.
and Chuquisaca had pronounced against the Go
vernment. General Cordova was marching against
the first-named City with. 1,500 veterans. La Paz
bad a garrison of only 1,500 recruits.
In La Paz, the residence of the American minis
ter had been'broken into, and the deposed authori
ties who had sought, refuge under the United
States flag of Mr. Dana, Were taken therefrom.
In Cobija the Prefect nominated by Linares had
not been received. Cordova, it is' said, is badly
off for troops, having no cavalry or artillery, and
it is probable that he will be obliged to yield to a

The Alexander left Manilla on the 16th August,
a few days prior to.which date a brig had arrived,

Puttarier.rnas, November 16, 11347,
The improvement in the prices of Masks is well
sustained. and indicates a rapid recovery from the
etfeets of the depressing influences that bare
reigned so lug. The faith of the public in the
who.lemme condition of the country at large is
very strong" and well-founded, and each day adds
to the confidence felt by Capital in the Inters
Every great interest of the country will rapiily
recover from pronration, and though some little
thoe'will be r.eceszary to get the macbinery again
is motion, the effect will soon be felt in all
branches of trade and commerce, while the in" -
mense annual production of gold will stimulate
the industry of the land, and bring all ita
branches into order and active use.
We are very glad to be able to announce that
1 the Reading Railroad Company baa perfected an
arrangement for relief from the embarrassment
which has overtaken its financial attain The
' company has executed a mortgage covering its
entire property, which is to take the place ef , the ' -
mortgage given to secure the bonds or 1868, and
which is to suture a new itemeref-seven ?WHOM et -
six per cent. bonds, corivertdbyt into atoelt. Miam i t '
bonds are to be issued, one-b - M"at once, Nellie'
purpose of funding the floating debt, anCtb,
other half at tho proper time, in eXelPir ,1,
~for the bonds of 1880. This issue will teaks
'
the entire bonded dibt of the eampany not
far from ken millions of dollars. The stock ,
reaches about eleven and a half minims!, seek- ~
lug, with the debt. twenty-one aid a half mil
lions, to pay interest on which the net
.siarnany of
the road should amount to a little core tbaa a
'million and a quarter of dollars. 'pia year, after
paying expenses and the interest on the debts,
the balance of income, it is said, will amount to
nine hundred thousand dollars, or eight per cent.
on the amount of the stock.
This amount would go far toward reducing the
floating debt of the company, and such an applica
tion of it would doubtless meet with the general err
probation of the stockholders. We trust that this , 1
