Pic-Nicsin the MotXTArNs.^Our
!people are improving. They are enterprising- and^j energetic, adopting the fashions, pleasure* and pre-^j vailing eustoirs of the fashionable world with a^celerity not less astonishing than cratifying. Among^I these may be enumerated ehitmona and pic-nics.^and we are looking daily for the small pox or^cholera. The most desirable of these, we believe,^are pic-nics, and it was with joyous hearts that a^party on an equestrian jaunt over the mountains,^on Sat unlay last, discovered a couple of parties^from our little burgh, out at the lakes, enjoying^Heaven a sunshine and Earth's sublimity and gran^^deur and spring-like beantv by the margin of the^crystal waters, beneath the spreuJirij. pities, among^i the modest wild dowers peeping out from grassy^i banks on the summit of the mountain- It was not^: the less pleasing that generous hospitality filled the^I goblets with the vintage of sunnier lands, and we^^ were permitted in the sparkling cup to pledge the^brighter sparkling eyes of Virginia's fairest. It^I came very near disturbing even the equanimity of^' the half dozen uninvited guests, who were all old^enough at.d ugly enough to know betr* r than to go^i to pic nics- The only wonder is that with sscb^magnificent scenery, and all natare in that vicinity^I is evidently gotten up for the special purpose of^: pic-nics. there have been none before- From all^accouuts ^the Bakes^ will become a favorite resort.
TubFirst of this Season.^On Fri-
jday evening ami Saturday morning, three emi-^. grant wagons arrived in Virginia from the States.^' being the only ones that have yet arrived. One be-^j longed t'^ some Iowa men. another to Rev. ('has.^j King, and the other to Mr. Win. Lewis. The latter^j left St. Joe on the 21st ot April, accompanied by C^1 D. King, and in traveling along they finally found^' themselves a portion of a train ot CO wagons destined^for Colorado. Utah, Idaho. Montana. Oregon and^California. They were repeatedly attacked by In^. diaus. but lest only ooe man. a large portion o^' the train stopped in Denver, fearing to attempt the^; trip to the localities they started for, and the bal^; auce jourae;. eil on together until they reached Fort^Bridger, when they divided up. and the parties we^have named, having light wagons, traveled at the^' rate of fort ot more miles a day until they reached^their destination. They report very little emigra^tion on the plains, it having been turned back at^the outset bv the rumored Indian troubles.

iSpuericalCase.^The Gazttte says
theRadical party is responsible for the present^management of Indian affairs. Will the (iazrtte^look up the list of Democrats, Louis V. Bogy, the^Missouri candidate for tbe A'ice-Presidenoy, is an^example, who have been the ring-masters in the^show ot Indian management for half a century,^through party patronage, until the gov err. men t was^wrested from the hands of the I^emoeracy by an^outraged people, through the insidious scheming^of wire-pullers and the defection of President John^^son, latterly. Tbe present condition of affairs is^one of tbe abuses left us by the defunct party, that^Deeds reconstruction. Ten to one, every improve^^ment would be branded ^ infamous ^^ and ^ uncon^^stitutional ^ by the opposition ; but western I'aion^papers are not'so tongue tied by partizanism that^they dare not condemn and appeal from wrong, let^the blame rest where it mav. It also says the^Union party of California, at the last election, had^forty thousand majority. A'ery good statistics.^Show the returns. Tbe Herald man claims to be^the ^ experienced scribbler ^ of the Territory, to^which honor he is welcome and no doubt well enti^^tled. He says we have abused him Poor fellow !^We consider our magnanimity in letting him ah^oe^as a most arenerous and self-denying act of courtesy^worthy ol especial commendation. Tbe J^emorrat,^ia re presenting a stale lot of twaddle from its issue^of Feb. 8th, 18tit) in regard to the Legislatures,^says: ^ The Organic Act does not say that the^apportionment should I e made at the first meeting^of the Legislature.'' W ill the Major read sec. 4 of^the Organic Actt No one doubts the profound legal^lore, the astuteness and ability off the Democrat to
deupon points of law, or the prerogative ot ed-^l in all cases to reverse the decisions of the 8u-^I Court, where their modesty will permit, but j^then even the lirmorrat Editor is finite and tallihle. j^and the human heart is desperately wicked and de-

AnotheuHomicide.^From Captain
ThomasBauiu. who arrived in town on Tueeday^tuortiing. we have the details of another homicide.^| committed at Bozeman City on Sunday last. Capt.
Banin was detailed by the Colonel commanding in^! the field to escort Governor Smith, who was ex-^1 |^ected in Bozeman City, on Monday, to the front.^I For this purp^ se he had detailed fifteen men of bis^j own Company ( ^ A **), five of Company ^ c ^ and^j five of i on.) an ^ 1^.^ Arriving at Bozeman. they^, camped near the town and began cooking dinner^; by messes. Duriug the absence of the Captain,^while dinner v as preparing, twool the men, named^Messier and Fullivan, were sparring or wrestling,^all in good sport. Another soldier. James Spencer,^of Company ^A,^(-ame up, tripped Messier and^kicked him after he was down. Oo this, scvivrsv) of^the squad cried out. ^That is not fair play.^^S mot'g others who spoke was Christopher Tanson.^of Company ' D.^ who was sitting uear by eating^his dinner. At this, opoieer approi-a-h,- I Vans -n^and said. ^ M'^y be you want to take it up.^ A'au-^son put down his p! .tc t- - troti. the groini 1 and^said, ^' 1 don't care if I do.^ Spencer it i nee drew^his revolver Ural presented it. full cocked, at AT.ui-^1,-ad. A'^nson attempted to draw his re-ol i t.^but s|^encer cnught it tvith his le^ hand. k^eping^his own close to A'anscn's heed. Vanson told him^repeatedly^s^ me say f- nr. others six or seven^times^to take awav hts pistol, te'ling Spencer he^was armed with a knife and would use it if he did^not remove the pistol. Sperrer still retained his^]s^sition. w hen A'anson drew a large knife from his^s inth and s'i n k hiai. The blade enter-d 8|-on^^cer's bidy just below the ribs, on the right, |ia^.s^sl^under the h^-art and entirely through his^1-ody. lilting him instantly. A'anson imme^^diately gave himself up and was sent back to^the ciitnp ou thu Yellowstone, undar a heavy guard.^^ ni er was b--trlcd the same evening at B' /einan^with military l'-onors. He was nbout 2S years of^age. was formerly of New York City, where be has^a sister residiug, and was Inst winter in the employ^of J. M Knight St Co., of this city. The above is^the at count of thcftffiay as w e have it ft .nn Capt.^Baitm. and the same as transmitted to the comman^^dant of the forces in the Seld. The soldiers who^witnessed the affray, without an exception exhooe-^rabs A'anson fri in any blame in the unfortunate af^fair. They say be was compelled Jo use bis knife^in self-defense, aai earnestly endeavored b) avoid^striking Spencer.. It Is their desire to have this ex^^pression made public, as there were threats of^lynching A'anson by parties who did r.ot witness^tbe affrav. AVhen it is recollected that Spencer,^the man killed, belonged to Co. A, of whom there^were fifteen m -n present, and A'anson belonged to^Co D. of which there were only f.ve men present,^and that Co.

FromSaturday's Tri- Weekly.^Scsday in Town.^The city on last
Sabbathpresented a very exciting ami animated^appearance, and to thotje but lateiy arrived from^staid and solemn villages in America, it uudoubt^edly pruseuted a strange and startling anomaly^The streets were crowded m ith miners, tender-feet.^^ other-siders,'' freight teams, bull-whackers, fast^horses and buggies and luster horsemen, all crowd^^ing and jostling each other in their desire to get to^vi here the biggest crowd wus assembled. Tbe va^^rious auction stands were surrounded by ^eager^and attentive audienc* *^ try nig to get tl..^tbe very bad bargains that were offered, while the^hoarse and resonant cries and oaths, of the horse aud^other auctioneers, togethei with the music (music !^shades of Paganini aud of Thai berg !) of the gam^^bling saloons mingled, in a startling Terrain with^the solemn tones of tbe ^church-going bell.^ In^reviewing tbe scene y-oa could not but s*^ecuiate as^to tbe ^straight and narrow path^ we read about,^and wonder if it led through a mining camp to^Paradise.
Military.VW* Wm that a courier
arrivedin this city on Sunday night from Governor^Smith with a dispatch tendering to General Neil^Howie a commission as Colonel of the 1st Ueg't M.^Vols., aud requesting him to assume command of^the forces in the field. Gen. Howie has accepted^the command and will start for the field iu a few^days. The tender of this position to Gen. Howie^and his acceptance of it will be hailed with tbe^liveliest satisfaction by the volunteers and the peo^^ple. His ability, energy and popularity will^infuse new life into the organization, and if there is^work to tie done it will receive attention. The re^^organization of tbe Militia created a good deal of^dissatisfaction at first, but as it is becoming better^understood there is a better feeling. Capt. Here^^ford's company will camp for a few days on Prickly^Pear creek, and as soon as the necessary arrange^^ments are completed will start for the Musoleshell,^taking with them a section of artillery.
