FromTuesday s Tri- Weakly
QriVive.^The air was pretty thin
orSunday night. The recent discovery of a plot^j to born the city ha* occasiaaed some feeling of in*^security and aroused the citizens to a watchfulness
andvigilance that was not lessened by discovering^a little after nightfall that the water was stopped^off from the hydrant and a brisk gale sweeping up^the gulch. An investigation showed that the reser^^voir building some distance above town had been^torn down and the water stopped off at that point.^It was at once turned on again and a guard placed^i over it. while an ample force was retained in the^} city all night to be ready for any emergency. Vir^^ginians are as sympathetic as the Siamese Twins.^A uotion breaks out instantly and is universal.^Sometimes it developes itself in s Sunday airing in^the country,and every road will be lined witb^eiU^^and the town aa quiet aa a eoantiy grave yard.^Monday night it appeared that dissipation was the^prevailing mania, or perhaps it uas owing to the^number of soldiers on a high after their return from^i the Yellowstone. It waa very noisy a little flgbty,^j and altogether interesting. Twelve o'clock popu-^; lated the calaboose. The noise gradually decreas^^ed until morning came, but no devouring element^clasped the humblest dwelling in its ardent em^^braces. The latest developments about the reser-^v ir wonld seem to establish the fact that some of^the soldiers needing firewood, appropriated the log^I building at the reservoir, which being covered with^| earth choked up the pipe when it fell and thus^stopped off the liquid supply.
Threeof Us.^The Langrishe troupe^1 is creating a sensation in Montana, and are receiv-^{ ing much more favorable notices than in Salt Lake^City. The post is very warm in their praise.^^j Denrer -Vtir*, Sept. 17.
Theabove ia all true ; but we are certainly not^to be charged with inappreciation. The people in^Montana needed the Langriahe troupe, and we hap^^pened not to be in that poaition. Langriahe is a^jovial, honorable, good hearted fellow and we like^him^so far aa he went. But, in addition to our own^excellent stock company. theCouldocks were here.^We couldn't help that.^Salt Lake Telegraph,^Sept. 26.
TheSalt Lake Theatre ia a church institution^^the company Mormons and MormaneMea. The^Telegraph is a church paper, getting more so every^day, and the editor a devotee of polygamy. Mor^^mon ism ia a mutual admiration society^selfish, ex^^clusive and uncharitable to outsiders. Langrishe^did not ^went^ far enough in matrimonial al^^liances to suit the faatidicus tastea and elicit enco-^minms from the faithful. It won't do to throw off^on Langrishe because the Cou! Jocks were there.^^ Bro. Stenhoute^ did not recognize their abilities^until they had gone, and the admission that he^^ couldn't help their being there ^ explains the fall^column editorial laudation by which he signalizes^their departure. The assertion that we ^needed^the Langrishe troupe and the saints did not ^ is^proof cumulative that the sick man of I tali is not^competent to prescribe remedies for himself,^although kind enough, by inadvertency, to state^I that Montana can appreciate enterprise, good the-^| atricals, and clever people who only marry once at^: a time.
PersonalMr. Wm. H. Taylor, Su
pcrintendentof Wells. Fargo A Co.'s line, arrived^iu Virginia from Salt Lake on last Thursday, and^| has since been lying very ill with billions fever.^, We are pleased to learn that he is now recovering,^i and hope be will soon be on duty again. I'nder^his efficient management the express line from Salt^! Lake to Benton approaches aa near perfection, in^spaed, safety, regularity and the accommodative^spirit manifested toward patrons, as any line need
seekto attain, and gives satisfaction to allCol.
Insley,editor and proprietor of the Leavenworth f^Contrrvatilte, who has been doing business in Mon- ' ,^tana for some months, left for home per Sunday's^coach. The best wishes id' a host of friends ac^^company and ahid^ with him. like the memory of
hisaina. Speed, safety, friends and funMessrs.
r.h- Robertson and Ceorge h. Bodenburgh, Hen-^tiles, and withal gentlemen, came in from Salt Lake^on Saturday, and will abide with us until after the^' rand Lodge communication next week. They^represent Wasatch Lodge, Salt Lake City, nun-^under dispensation fmm the Grand Lodge of Mou-^tana and flourishing like a green bay tree.
For^unOE^TheCheyenne fever^rages. The number who. not having any other^place in particular to go to. have concluded to go^to Cheyenne, has been gradually increasing for the^last week or two, until it culminated yesterday in^the departure of Heath's train with over fifty pas^sengers, including some of our oldest and most re^^spected citizens. They are thoroughly armed,^equipped and organized, and Indian* desiring a^taste of lead will be accommodated with it by the^quart on application in person^ A number left on^Saturday and Sunday. Altogether, not less than^| one hundred men have left, or are about to leave,^for Cheyenne.the principal portion of themdesiiued^for the States, preferring the trip that way to the^river route at this season.

mutinousRumored also that the Vigilantes have
hungtwo men at Jack's Rancbe, near Bozernan

|rFatal Accident.^YVUliam Johnson
waskilled about 4 p. m. yesterday while working^in a cut on a mining claim on Woods bar directly^oppoaite Nevada. The hank waa some fourteeu^feet high and caved down for a distance of thirty^^r forty feet, burving him under the dirt aome three^feet. He waa exhumed as quickly aa possible, but^life waa extinct Mr. Jobnaon was about 25 or 87^years of age and waa highly esteemed for his many^lies. He served honorably in the western army^under Grant, and we are informed came here some^two years since from St. Louis. Several others weie^in the cut at the time, but fortunately escaped^i injury.
TheYear of the World.^The
JewishNew Year was celebrated yesterday until^| 12 M. by religious services, conducted by I.* Sehll^I ler. yuiie a number of their stores are closed un^^til to-morrow evening, and the observance of the^holiday is genera! among all of the faith- They^count from the creation of the world, designating^this as the year 5628. The day of Atonement, ob-^! served as a dsy of stri',t abstemiousness from food^I and drink, occurs on Wednesday the 9th inst , and^i a non-observance of the divine injunction as record -^i ed in the 23d Chapter of Leviticus, is punishable^by being ^ cut off from among his people.

TCAPT. DAVY AND HIS TRAIN.^Con^^siderable has been said and written about thia in^^dividual and the train of SaugrantB which he has^brought vverland Oris seasoti. It appears that the^irrepressible Captain is to be the subject of Still
bywhittling, and let his poetic soul gush forth in I stance the voluntary return of the parties. It is fuither interest, which at the present writing it is^harmless rhythm, when a gleam of judicial humor presumed that a municipal tax ot three mills on the not altogether assured wili redound to his credit,^lighted up the dull routine of rusty cases, faces ; ,1,,] jar wHl be levied, creating 93.104 of a revenue. As it is a matter that will coma up for adjudication
T-p before the Courts, ami the matter will then bethor-^m^iAAoXn oughlv onimva'led, we give both sides of the story as^789.911
andplaces haa provoked the sweeping satire of an^injured advocate, who opens tbe^flood-gates^thusly^on ^the ^^oet of the Tuneful Nine.
Owonderous poet of the Tuaefal Nine *^Long has thy genuis slumbered. Into line^At last thou rst called the magic thought and word^That by their silver mehxlies have stirred^The dormant passions and poetic fire^Uf him who now takes up the tuneful lyre.
Whyhast thoa kept from us so long concealed.^The groat poetic talents now revealed 1^Why hast thoa not from out thy fruitful mind.^Before drawn thoughts in beauty all enshrined.^To please the fancy and delight the ear^Of those who chance to know and greet thee here.
Wasit because the spirit did not move^The sleeping waters, and thus doing, prove.^Her nearness to thee ^ Wert forced to wait^For inspiration t Did unyielding fate^Make bare the fields of wit, bare wisdom's tree t^Did the stern Goddess prove unkind to thee
Ifso, despair not; seek the golden grains^Of wit with patience. Bedded i^. thy brains.^The thoughts may lie which howe'e- weak they lie^May yet work out thy imnnrtality,^And cause thy name to stand upon thi page^Of history, first as poet and as sage.
Bepatient, wise,discreet. The first thou art.^The latter thou may'st be. and if thy part^e're call* upon thee more to write in rhyme^Of matters which may happen in thy time^^If thou wouid'st have thy memory linked with fame^When thou hast finished writing, sign thy name.
Lex.
MusteringOut.^The muster out of
themilitia is progressing favorably, and is now^nearly or quite accomplished. The men are receiv^^ing their horses at the appraisement, appear to be^well satisfied with the action of the Governor, snd^have almost without exception deported themselves^in a very creditable manner. These men who^withstood the temptation and inducements offered^by the Hughes party to skedaddle with the govern^^ment property, when it was presumed that they^would be set on loot without a penny when they^returned here, deserve not only praise for their in^^tegrity and manhood, but a charitable judgment of^any little sprees they may have had on their arri^^val here, when no harm resulted from it. Their sit^^uation is not an enviable one ; the mining season is^well nigh over and not a tenth of them have any^money. The ^J^.\ ernor has gone to the extent of his^authority in doing what every good citizen will ap^prove: settling with them and paying them as best^he could, and asthey nre now seeking employment^we hope they maybe successful in finding it. Many^of them are leaving for the different camps and^valleys, and by the end of the week but few of the^Montana volunteers, except those who originally^resided here, will remain in Virginia. There are^bad men among them no doubt, but we would like^to know any two hundred men in an organization^in this or any other place where there would not be^some infernal scoundrels. There are many as brave^boys and true among them as ever straddled a^broncho or swung a pick, and they have our best^wishes with a hearty good will.
ASensibi.k View.^lafl (i.mtu. in
copyingthe account of the execution of Wilson,^says: ^With many of our good citizens, we have^deprecated the existence of such an irresponsible^body in Montana as a Vigilance Committee, but^chiefly deprecated its, at times, very ap|^irent ne^^cessity. That this organization brought order out^of the most bloody anarchy in Montana, at a time^when law was powerles^, its exeuctive orlices being^in the hands of villains, uo one at this day doubts.^That many cold-blooded murderers and daring rob^bers have gone nnwhipped of justice since they^ceased to take cognizance of such matters, is alsi^true, and has been lameuted by all good citizens,^who wished to see the law predominant. If the^statement in the Post may be relied upon as^tirely correct, we ihink that few licsi.le his accom^plices will regret the summary and informal hang^ing of this man.^ Our information since confirms^the previous account. Wilson made full conf^sion. it is said, when at the place of execution, snd^declaring after he had done so that he would rather^be hung by the Vigilantes than fall into the hands^of bis comrades, jumped from the block and was^his own executioner- The opinion expressed by^the (iaarttc is the almost universal feeling of the^community in regard to the status of affairs in the^Territory.

IssuedJames Tufts, Secretary of
Montana,and John X. Beidler, V. S. Marshal, have^rompletod the canvass of the Territorial vote for^Delegate and their official resort is given in this^issue.

Fromthe Yellowstone.^Mr. Kir-

It was said to be their intention to overhaul^ami capture Richard* train laden with provisions^und bound for Fort Smith. Hughes' party have^not more than two week's provision on hand and it^will be necessary for them to replenish ^heir com^^missary shortly or break up and return. As near^as we can ascertain he has 150 men and 250 ani^^mals What a delightful time they v^ ill have when^they couinieuce breaking up.

wecan ascertain them from reliable sources, leav^^ing our readers to form their own conclusions.^Inthetraus whieh Daw brousjrht over, or, more^properly apeaking, which brought over Davy,^w ere a number wfwersnan emigrants whose desti^^nation was Oregon, and who. be claimed, owed^him #tii^) as thsr price which they agreed to pay for^the privilege of accompany ing him overland. On^last Friday 11. ^ iermaus started from their camp^near Silver City on their way to Oregon, where^npon D. sued out a writ of attachment, ami officer^A l^xande rand another deputy Sheriff* went out to^serve it. Cm coming up with the train and making^known their business, the Germans thought it was^a ^ little joke ' of their former quasi Captain's,^and jpolitely told the officials they ^couldn't aee it,^^tact that it an attempt was made to seize their^cattle they would resist. Not being prepared for^this kind of a demonstration, the officers same back^and reported, when a posse of twenty-Tow mounted^well armed men was sent out. and the seizure^was completed without any trouble. This^it the Captais's story, the (iermaos have another.^It appeals that an agreement was made at Fort^Abercrombie between the ^ Jerrnans ami Davy to^tbe effect that in consideration of his taking them^from that point to Walla Walla they were to pay^him #600, one half of which was paid down, the^balance to be given him at Walla Walla, or if it^would not inconvenience the parties, at Helena.^After considerable delay tbe train started, the Her^^mans. ; s a general thing, traveling by themselves.^Between Abercrombie and Union, Davy's train^gave out and he was un able to haul the baggage^and provisions of nearly sixty passengers whom he^bail contracted to take through at #125 per bead, to^Helena. lie endeavored to obtain transportation^in soother train, but failed, and the Oregon party,^whose teams were in better condition, took the^freight of the whole party and provisions for eigh^^teen men, some of the freight they took to Benton,^and some to Silver City. Between i nioasnd Ben-^Uro Davy's party became short of provisions, anil^they mutinied, putting a roue around bis neck and^threatening to bang him. Wishing to save^Davy's corpse from enhancing the beauties of^tbe landscape in that section, tbe Germans^told ' them they would furnish provisions^until they arrived at Helena, which they did. At^Benton, we believe an arbitration was had to make^an estimation of the compensation tbe Oregonians^were to receive for uccominodating Davy in the^manner they had. and the arbitrators decided that^he owed them #440, which left a balance in their^favor of #140. This they resolved to sacrifice rather^than lose time in trying to collect it, and conse-^aequently started as previously mentioned. We^understand au effort is being made to adjust the dif^^ficulty, but with what result we have not learned.^The train is mostly composed of families, and there^are some forty children in it. The case cannot possi^^bly come up at this term of court, and if they have^to remain until the next term, untold suffering will^be the consequeuce- Much injury will also result^to the Territory by the reports which these parties^will send back to their friends.
