+h'e "' Th rd House" has appointed a
" smelling committee" to ascertain who
" Franklin" is, and in their labors, have
the hearty aid of several members of the
Assembly. One of them asked me to-day
if I had any idea who that" vile scribbler"
was. I could not reliev him from his di
lemma, but confidentially I will say to you,
(in your private ear,) that I think it must be
oueof tie three .overbos lIrre, whose name
is Franklin. He is a close observer, a fine
wrl' ir, and watches the two houses so close
ly, ~sat Lthimk. he has some ulterior object
in view.
I was sorry to Iatnn that JMr. Rogers, of i
whose good qualities I am not oblivious,
and of which I might, in some future com
munication :hare said something-was dis
satisfied at my mildd statement of the facts
in his case. If false, I will more than re
tract my statements.
The D)emocratic party has been numer
onsly represented in the lobby, and on the
floor, the party has not lacked for speeches.
Our friends do not appear to have so many
axes to grin'd, and hence are not here in
large numbers after the pickings. Because
our members are not incessant gabblers,
some persons think we are feebly represent
ed here. Our men are honest, capanle
Smen, faithful to their duties and at work.
I i;essrs. Potter and Bagg are also working
I industriouuly.
You know' the bitter L)emocratic pa~ri
Ss. began, to doubt the fidelity of Sienator
Bigg. I am happy to say their fears are
well founded. l:tgg has faith in the glo
rious future of the republic, and so faith
in the future of the element in the ascend
ant temporarily in Madison county. Iecnce
he cannot be implicitly relied on in all party
drills.- 1He has drank no poor whisky since
he came here, and this

of his apostacy from the party name once
delivered to the saints, but now kept by the
most .ungodly pack of, sinners that ever
sought to do ,business upon the hypothesis
that it was advisable to keep up a show of
decency
The act incorporating irginia is* a a w..
There has also been passed a quartz law, I
wrong in oneessential particular. It make s
claims 2001 feet along the lode. One hun
dred feet are enough for a claim, and a well
defined crevice ought to rcndi.r the lode
real estate.
The most impudent thing of the session.
thus far, excepting the attempt of a rebl
to get into the Assembiy, is the cla:i of
SMesrs. John D. Ritchie aftL others, to ae
cure a charter for the road from Vicginia
towards Salt Lake. They have ex;-ndrd
no dollar, performed no work,but ch.; i, the
natural highway as a toll road, which if
granted, will cripple the Terr:toy for ye*s.
The'y rode over the route once o twice, and
claimed it, they say, and gravely put this
forth as a reason why the peop!e of Madi
son-county sho.ld be placed under contri
bution for years to come. Other pearic.
cpim it-some of 'Thom it is alleged have
expended nearly ten thousand dollars on it.
Whether such a claim as this ought to se
care a charter may be doubted, hbut it is
decent compared with the naked, bald
cliim of other parties. If corruption in
duces your represeetat;ves to cripple the
indust"ial interests of the Territorv by in
ducing such lbgi l:.t'on as this, let the
dear people rc iwembcr those who thus
rote away their dearest righfs for paltry
gold. 'T1loe i hobe have built the road our;ht
to rccoiva what tIeyv hlvo expcndecO. `ut
even that ought to be ptud them out of the
Treasury, and not by a charter. There has
been passed another charter for a telegraph
anrd wagon road frem the Missouri river
west through Madison county, which it is
hoped the Gtovernor will veto. Men do not
realize how seriously these charters will
cripple the best interests and developments
of our Territory. .
Mr. Roge~s upon res:gning his seat in
ti. IIHouse, was voted the privilege of its
ba,'. which I hope your readers will readily I
understand. A sinecure surely:! Ilon.i

the members were weak enough to voto,

This dilu: town mnake one lonC for tea nean i
pots of Madison county, o1 omitted to state
,hat the capital question is in doubt. One
member wants it located on his ranche in
the Prickly Pear valley, another at Hell
(;ate, &c., and there is some dang.:r that the
Assembly wiU nIegl~ct this primiry duty,
and not locate it at V;rginia. One thing is
gtatifying. They must do something. The
Governor has exhausted his power which
was not to locate the capital, but only tot
designate where the first Legislative As
semtbly should meet, and then they are
charged with thl duty of regulating by lawi
the time and place of the, meeting of
sqbsequent assembles. No mere petty
i0loiAslV Qrowinu out of locality oughi
to determine this questio but ste As
sembly ought at once to fix the place at
Virginia City. We apprehend Governor
dgeeton -would find UiLhard work to recon
cile the calling o' the Assembly here to a
faithful discharge of his official duties and
the Legislative Assembly ought to correct
the error forthwith, but the small scrambles
epanthinking men mpay prevent it.
