It is tltc rercral opinion in Jlaine tliat Governor Garcrlon tvill not submit to the Suprctr.e Court the questions propounded hy cx-Gov. Merrill. The KepuUicans are pre pared for this and an Ausutadespateli says they "will present the question through a ma jority of the mcmliers of the lost Senate, as it is thought such 1 roeeedings would con f nrmwWi ti'e 1 uv. Their disposition is to exhauft every leal picans before others arc tried.' rx-GorcnsoK 5Ioi:i:li l has submitted to Onve.-i.or Garcclon a list of fourteen ques tions ri1 i:'r.!r:o the technical points at issue to be sub-.iitteil to the Siprcnic Court of M lir.e. The Governor i3 extensively le "cc!icd bv petitions sinied by Pemocnvts as wdlas Uipnblieans toaecrde to Jtr. Morrill's r" ;ue.-t ,i-.(l subnv.t the points to the court.

Mr. Weaver asks for what the Grcciibacl'-rs censi lcr a bagattlle of 5100,- 000,000 to lifgin it!i. Tlic average dc- pn cation of greenbacks during the war was about forty per cent, and on this basis the a jir.imt to 1 e pii 1 by the Weaver bill to sol di rs in. round numbers would lie $440,000,- 0 ) Hut the bill proidcs that interest shall be computed on the difference in the value cf greenbacks anil goldat six per cent, winch would amount to fKiOOAOOO, or a grand t tal under the bill of 6T92,OO0,00O. This U for the army alone, and does not include the navy. AdJing the navv, it is estimated that the total required by the terms of the bill would be iOOO.OW.fiOJ. Tor Greenbackers, who think that all the G ivcmmcne has to do to raic any quantity of money is to run a few more printing presses, the issue of a billion or two more or less of greenbacks is a mere tnfle. But other people, vlio believe that something more than a Government sump is needetl to make parcr into moi'cy, will be somewhat staggered by the proportions of this scheme.

Tj the Dlaor or the Free Tres and Times : An article copied in your paper from the AtLtntic Monthly on the condition of farm ers in Kansas led me to think, perhaps, your readers might be interested in knowing some thing of the tondition of that cla"s of people in Southern California. The Atlantic writer said the State officials of Kansas were consulting as to the hot means of prowding for the support of the destitute families the coming Winter. But in this State now suf fer for food, and the mildness of Ihe climate precludes all ideucf MilTerirg from cold. The population is made up of pen-ons from every State in the Union, and from nearly all quarters of the globe, and from all clasps and conditions of society. Th? Vermontcr is living neighbor to a ltuvuan, and Ihe re duced banker, fioni an Eastern city, next door to a Swiss peasant, a Swede or perhips a native Californinn of the -'greaser" persua sion. Of course from such a heterogeneous mas U is hard to lay the foundations of law, order and good society. A large projortion are here for health, very few brought much capital with them, and many, especially from the Southwestern States of Tetis and Ar kansas, had nothinar, being stripped by the ravages of war, and were ii Ihe condition of refugees uou nae-hiug this Stale. But near ly all came with high hopes, not of being contented with a comfortable livimr, but of amassing a fortune ly some lucky stroke. This is partly ihe fault of the local papers which mainly paint only the far sid of ihe picture, and chronicle the successes, but are very tetieent upon the subjtct e-f failures. Tlie diy for amassing wraith speedily h past, and nearly all who expeet it are doomed to th-appointmeut. And from this fact, that clas who lack the elasticity to recover fmm ill luck, as they call it, join the great army of ehrcuic grum blers, to he found everywhere, and stltlu dow n in hoard lxies on the plfin-, a U Kan fas ami live in comfortles-J, uninviting homes whit nothing pleasant or attractive alioiit them, and apparently determined that thtre never shall be. But alargcclasa lottt by experience and learn to adipt their wants to the capabilities of Ihe country, and nowhere in the United State, I verily believe, can a family live withies cxim-usc, so comfortably, and in a measure, luxuriously even, if they will divest themselves of the idea of Incoming rith, an I be content with a inrnleratc but Meadily increasing income. Trees grow very rapidly, and a pLto fie jears old has the appcatatiee of nn old set tled country, with Urge f-hade treis, an abundance of fruit and tdl the home com forts. With two or Ihrte cows, a few pigs and chick n, a egetable garden and econo my, a iniu may support a family of six kt sons. Ten acres of td lind with water will enable him to do this, and live with comparative ease.

Tlie auuuaf imports of this commodity equal our total annual pro duction of tho precious metals, or up wards of 873,000,00d. Thn payment for this imported siifrar is made almost en tirely in cash. The nuefetion. therefore. of raising our own sugar, if possible, is a very important one. the protessor as serted his confident belief that this could be done, and that wo h-ivt two sugar yielding plants tliat will grow anywhere in tho United States, either of which is capable of giving us all the btigar wo use on a verv small acreage. These are the 1 boririiuinw auu uur I'unimuu luinmi euiu. Nine per cent of Iho land planted to corn in the kinglis Stato of Illinois, if the corn btalkswere utilized lor sugar making. would supply our whole ileticiency and keep all the money at homo that is now sent away to pay lor our imported sugir. 1 he professor expressed a fctroug otrnwe tion that tins can not only be done, but can be done it a good profit to tho pro . ducers. j Ironi the cxpcrimenU rnaue nt tho de I partment tf n?rieulturc during tho lnbt ! two yeais, it has been proven beyond the 1 shadow ol a doubt Hint tlicdiiiertnl Kinds 1 of sorghum, when worked at the projer I starro ol crowtii. will true trom twenty- j four hundred to five thousand pounds of I meiehitutaui' sugnrola bign grade to ' the acre, besides n large fpiantity of good j symp.

Mureommuck was a man of magnificent phvskpie, more than six fee t tall, broad-chested and astrnight as an arrow. He could icad music well, was eptite intelligent, nud eouU play on the violin with more than common skill. Lut tIio Indian A3 he was called, like the lest of his race, was averse to woik, and basket-making was his main icliance for a livelihood. lie soon began to play at dunces m the neighborhood, and he also visited among the usideuhs to tome extent, paving for the entertainment of himself and wifewith his music. Hattie told some of the women folks, efter she has got a little nceiunintcil, that she be longed m Lyman, X.

She enid that 3Iary, the old wife, had had 11 quatrel with Mureommuck, had h-ft him, and wms now keeping the shanty for the woodchoppers "in tho mountain" near where she came from in Xew Ilamp bhire. As the uhded the story of her elope ment, her patents, farmois in Ljman, wuuttd her to mairy u young mau Against her will ; tho Indian was living with them, and that she fell in lovo with him, and followed him off. She told vari ous storiot nbout the wealth of her folks; her own gold wnlch end jewelry nnduiee clothes, and there was a vague rumor iu tltc neighborhotHl that sholmd money at homo. So much for the principal dm ma tig prrtOiuc Among the families in that ccctioii was IrA Carr, who lived in Calais, not fur from tho Woreestt r line, and Chester Can-, who lived in Worcester, near the Calais lino, and near tho Eagle hedge road, lnjth cousins of Ktvval. Tra is a well-to-do farmer, but Chester is a roving ne't r-do-well, who thesiiot sustain n veiy good leputatiou, and wlio is supposed to have two or three wive living in different places. About a month before the mur der Chester and his de facto wife tnv ited Mr. amlMrs. Mureommuck to visit them, nnd the invitation was accepted, ltoyal, who was vibrating between Iras and Chester's, sometimes boarding at one place and sometimes at the other, made the ftcquiintaneo of the Murcomnmcks during their vu4t. Chester carried them home on Sunday, the 8th of December, 1S78. On Vednesday, the 1 1 th, Chobter and Ins wifj drove up to Mureommuck's shantv. nnd asked Hattio to come down to their house and sow a few days. She assented, cfter cousulation with her hus band, and he agreed tn come tw. Mr. and Mrs. Carr and the rodo down; the "Indian" wnlkcd to Chester's through the woods. At dinner ltoyal, who was there, asked Mmeommuf'k to walk over to Ira Carr's with him, saying that he wanted to get nu axe, wincu was mere, and mat they could havo pit uty of cider and a good time. Tho Indian as-onled, and right after dinner both started otl'through tho woods, with their guns over their whoiilders, ami neeompanied by tlie In dian's dog. 'I his whs the last ever scon of Muicommuck alive. Koval arrived at Ira C.irr's at about nightfall idone. There he spent Ihe evening iu cleaning hia revolver. Among other things ho nskcdoflra. "If two men should start out into tho woods together and one nhould como buck and the other didn't, v hat would they do with the man that didn't come out? Ira answered, 'I think they would take the man that did eoine out, and make him show up wheie the man wiw that didn't como out." I loyal slept there that night, and tho next morning, having got his axo, started for tho wikhIs, to go over to Chester's. Ho nriivttl thero iilwmt luxm, and ou en tering the house nshed, 4,Hasu't ho come?" "No," slid Hattie; "where is he? Koval said that he had parted with him on the mountain in tho woods, say ing that ho was going further north to visit the Sloans. I toy n I went up to Mr. Plummet' 1 1. 1 lichai dson's, and v d kod till that iiftcrnoon with Chester. Then he told Chobter, 11s Chester said, holding out the five finger of one hand end one of the other, "My gun and my levolver never miss tue." Meanwhile the Iittlo widow, as yet uninformed of her bereave ment, was overwhelmed with dismal foie bodinga of misfortune. The preceding day she was repeatedly insulted by Chen tor, and now had the undonirnble atten tens of both ht combat and rebttlV.

Hatch and escort left this morning at four o'clock in a drizzling rain. The five days extension expires the20lh,and if all tho Indians demanded by the commis sion are not surrendered thn, jK-acc negotia tions will end. "AH or none" were Hatch's parting words to Ouray, as he left the com mission rooms yesterday for his ranch to hold a final IndUn council, which ere this has decided the fate of the Ule nation. Ouray fully realizes tho situation and knows the ultimatum of the commission h the de mand of the nation, and if not complied with the Utes must go. A surrender of the prisoners is very doubtful. Chief Guero, second to Ouray, bun a medicine man. has a large following and has done more than all ethers to hinihr the commission from accom plishing its work. He is in favor of war, and at the time of the White Itiver troubles wanted to massacre the iople living in the carrison and was only restrained by Ouray. When Ouray leaves "for AWhingtcn there will Ie no one left to restrain the young bucks, and Gucro is so hostile to the whites that he is liable to cut loose at any moment, and thus Los Pino may lecome a second White Iliver, unless forces are sent here soon.

The gale was so strong that stcamlioats were unable to reach the scene of the disaster. There h no doubt that the train is ia the water. The passen gers, who arc supposed to be alldrowned, arc estimated from onejuindrcd and fifty to two hundred. LATER. The gale having moderated soacwhat. the provost of Dundee and a number of leading citizens started ia a steamer to the scene bur have not yet returned.

A tlespatch from London says of the Dundee disi3ter, oa Sat urday, that the train was bound for Dundee aad iiad arrived safely at the south end of the bridge crossing the Frith of Tay shortly after seven. The bridge was intact at the time, for !i-nal? were given t allow the train to cros?. Tlie wires were interrupted a few minutes thereafter and no fo.rthcr communi cation could he obtained. Immediately after the disaster large quantities of wreckage and clothing and si London mail bags for Dim dee anil Aberdeen drifted ahore and by rine o'clock all the lieac'i wa3 f-trcwa with remains of the broken carriages and pieces of bridge work. It is not known how many passenger were on the train.!mt the numU r is e-timatedat from lTOtoSOO. It is believed thai half a eloz,n of thltrgest girders of Ihs bridge wre blown down, but the full extent of the dis aster will not be known until to-morrow. Several parlies are looking for bodies com ing ashore and the sale having moderated somewhat an effort is being made by some of the jieoplt of Dundee lo reach the" scene in a steamer.
