■ v. > Í0s5 SUjCÍfS SUw. SATURDAY, MAY 12, 1835. TO OUR PATRONS. The fourth volume of the Los Angeles " Star'' will close with the present number, and wc take pleasure in acknowledging that we have received a generous and hearty support from a large circle of friends. We are grateful for the liberal aid ofour patrons, aud shall make strenuous exertions to elicit a continuance of their favor and support. In a few weeks we design publishing the paper entirely in the English language, which we trust will meet the approbation of our readers, and be the means of ot extending its circulation. From the commencement of the fifth volume, tho subscription price will ba reduced to five dollars a year, or three dollars for six months, payable in advance. The " Star" will not be conducted in future as a partisan paper, for we believe a thorough-going party adherent is in fact a political slave, a person who allows all others, on all occasion to think for him, and who, as far as politics is concerned, has no principle or rule of action, save that of slavish adherence and blind obedience to the dictation of his party. We shall still continue to hold out to our advertising friends the strongest inducements for their favors, and as the " Star " has the largest circulation of any paper in the State iuthc Southern counties, advertisers will, by furnishing material for our columns, consult their own interests. A word to the wise is sufficient. A decent support is all wc ask, and which, we believe, a generous community will not fail to give. Then send u» your names, for the next volume, for depend upon it, you will not be the poorer for it in this world, or sudor torment in the next, unless you f'crget to pay I he printer. Bounty Land Act. A writer in the Washington 0nton estimates that about 86,000,000) acre's of the public domain will be disposed of under the operation of thiSaet. Applications are pouring into the Tension Office in overwhelming numbers,—there having been in only one week 18,400 applications under the Act passed by Congress at its last session. A present of thiriy-six millions of acres of land is surely a magnificent reward fov military and naval services; but unfortunately only a small portion of the benefit Intended by this act will reach those who should be the sole recipients of this munificent donation. We have no doubt that land speculators will be mostly benefitted by. this law. We have always been ofthe opinion that the only true policy of our Government, would bc,to donate the public lands to actual settlers, and not make them a source of revenue to fill the coffers of our national treasury, oran object of speculation by capitalists, who buy the warrants for a mere trifle, and sell them to the actual settler. Let the public domain be thrown open in every State and Territory from the Atlantic to the Pacilic, as it is in the Territory of Oregon, and but few years will elapse before all the great thoroughfares from the Mississippi valley to California will be peopled with a hardy and industrious population. Such settlements would be a safeguard aud promoter of emigration, and in conjunction with military posts render the routes entirely safe from one extreme to the other. Organisation of tlic Cily Goveiimuiit. On Wednesday last, Judge K, H. J'iniiek administered the oath of office to Mayor FostBB and á majority of the Common Council. Tbe Council was then organized by choosing J. G, Nichols, Esq., President ol'the Board, and W. G. "Dryden, Esq., Secretary. The Board then adjourned until Tuesday evening next, at which time the Mayor will deliver the annual message. The Council consists of good men and true, and our citizens havo the right to expect that our municipal affairs under the new administration will continue to be conducted with an eye single to the best interests of the city. Mayor Foster bust year advised an appropriation to be made to defray the expense of a survey of the water power belonging to the city, with a view of introducing pure water for domestic use. Wc are not aware that any objection has been made to that appropriation, neither are we advised why it has not been carried into execution. A supply of pure water'is a great promotive of health, the value of which can not easily be estimated ; and its introduction, if a feasible plan can be devised, should be by no means lost sight of- No one we believe seriously advocates auy mensure that will have a tendency to entail a heavy debt upon the city ; if there are, wo think that we have men in the city Council that will resist to the last, any extravagant legislation, and endeavor to retrench any city expenses that arc now deemed useless or extravagant. .the both side* joca ted, so as to particular piece lul one, we thiul Ihe United Stati tedStateB, th.' i leagues ofland i Division of tlic State. Our leaders will And on our first page the bill of .\*r. Douglass, for a division of the State. It pro's iita for the erection of three States, out of the present extensive territory; the Northern to be known and designated as the State of Shasta, the central. California, and the Southern, Colorado. Although there is great diversity of opinion among many of our most intelligent citizens, as regards the policy of the measure at this time, wc believe a largo majority of the population in Southern California arc in favor of immediate division. Those who object to the measure as premature, advance as the most potent argument, tho immense increase of taxes in order to carry on and support three distinct State sovereignties, yet they do not deny that great benefits will undoubtedly How from a division, as the interests of this great State taken as a whole are so diversified, arrising principally from position and pursuits, that general laws cannot be enacted that will subserve the interests ami operate to the advantage of people in all parts of the State. At this time there is no]grc'at question on the tapis of a sectional character that will have a tendency to array either section ofthe State against the other, and hence for this reason mainly, wc believe the present the most auspicous time for a x>cac- able and quiet division. The extension ofour influence in our National councils, when comprised of five States on the Pacific, should receive an important consideration as tending to strengthen Ihe bonds ot our common Union, which every native American holds dear. Though the lofty nmutitalns and sterile plains seperate us from our kindred and our childhooiFs home, no portion of the Union we arc proud to say, are more loyal to theFederal compact than ourpco- ple on the Pacific coast, and none would be more prompt to discountenance any attempt in the diffusion of nullification sentiments in any portion of the Union. We will cheerfully open our columns for the discussion of this question pro and con, that when the people arc called upon to act. they can judge whether the benefits to be derived from a division will be equal to its burdens. How to get a Mormon Wife. The Editor ofthe Deserct News, in alluding to the difficulty of strangers obtaining wives among them, specifies the following conditions : " If a gentleman wishes to associate with our fc males, let him repent and be baptized for therenns" sion of sins. But this alone will not ensure his success, for many have submitted themselves to the ordinance of baptism and have added damnation to themselves by hypocritically bowing to certain rites and cerimonies with motives other than to glorify (¡oil aud to save themselves from this untoward generation. Let these go forth and preach the gospel to the nations, like tlie Mormon elders, without "purse or scrip.'' Let them be mobbed, tarred ar.d feathered, and whipped a few times for Christ's sake, and not for their own follies; and return, after a few years' labor, clear in conscience, pure iu heart, and unspotted from the world. If they can do these things, aud endure, they may begin to associate with our females, and seek among them a companion and partner for the life that now is and for that which is to come." There maybe some rusty old bachelors among us, who would be willing to submit to all these trials, and indignities, if by so doing they could have a choice of some twenty or thirty Mormon girls and take them to their bed aud board, but few would do it for one apiece, so long as there are plenty of Indian girls which they can obtain without the ne. cessily even of paying amarriago fee. ThoMormon girls must offer better terms than these, to induce strangers to seek among them a companion and a partner for life. Our Mormon cotemporary may be iu a strait to obtain a wife even after exhibiting the indications of tar and feathers in his hair, and tho whip onhis back, and hence thiswaruingwhich was probably intended asa caution to outsiders not to intercferc with his chances of success. Election in Kansas.—A dispatch from Independence to the N. O. True Delta, says : "We have returns from Kansas, showing the election of the pro-slavery ticket at Bull Creek, Lawrence, Douglass, Doniphau. Tecumseh, Shaw nee, Mission, and Dickey Point, by majorities from 200 to 800. Tlie elections were conducted with tolerable quietude. Tlie editor of thelvansas F'ree State was ducked in Kcw River by a mob, on account of a speech delivered by him. Probably no anti-slavery men arc elected to the Legislature. A large procession paraded here to celebrate tbe victory." This election was for the choice of the first Territorial Legislature, and consists of a council of thirteen members chosen f'or two years and a House of Representatives of twenty-six members chosen for one year. A New Paper. We would call the attention of our citizens to the Prospectus of Don Francisco P. Ramirez, who proposes publishing a paper in the Spanish language, eutitlcd El Clamor Público, which will be devoted exclusively to the service and interests of native Californians. The confidence that is reposed in the Editor and Proprietor is a certain guarantee of his success, and the very low subscription price, at which the paper ¡s afforded, will draw forth we trust a liberal patronage. As soon as circumstances will permit, the advertisements in the Spanish language in the Star, will be transferred to El Clamor Publico, by which arrangement five more columns will be opened to our Patrons aud English readers. This will offer new inducements to our subscribers and advertisers, and make the Star, a desirable medium not only for the merchant and trader of this city but also of San Francisco. ,;,.

JOHN FORSTER. ^sS-From Cuba.—The intelligence from Hanvna is of the most exciting interest, and we should not be surprised to hear by the next mail, that a rupture between the two G overamente bad taken place. Our consul at Havana has notified Gen. Concha " that if one drop of American blood is shed dur ing the present crisis, the United States Government will not be answerable for the result. Orders have been received at the different navy yards in ■'.■he Union, to fit out with the utmost dispatch all our available naval vessels, and prepare them for immediate service. Nothing but war was talked of in the Atlantic cities, and the Administration seems to be preparing for any emergency. The following extract of a letter from the N. Orleans correspondent ofthe S. F. Herald, recording the execution of Estrampcs.a martyr to Cuban lib crty, is of general interest: The steamer Cahawba arrived yesterday with dates from Havana to the 1st inst. She firings the intelligence that Senor Estrampes su tiered death by the garrote on the 31st of March. Great excitement is said to have prevailed in Havana ou the subject, as popular sympathy was very generally with him. About 15,000 persons arestnted to have been present at the execution. Mr. J. B. Felix, an associate with Estrampes in the attempt to introduce arms on the island, has been sentenced to ten years imprisonment at Ceuta, on the African coast. Several other persons have been tried, but their sentences were not yet known when the Cahawba left Havana. A letter dated April 1st, says : "It would appear that the protest which the Acting Ü. S. Consul made against the trial of Felix and Estrampes, and the attitude assumed by the Government at Washington in relation to it. at first somewhat staggered Gen. Concha, who, I understand, abeut Wednesday or Thursday last, addressed a note to the Acting U. S. Consul, couched in rather indefinite language, it is true, but which stated that the case ofthe above named parties" would be referred to the Spanish 'Minister at Wash iugton, and the general impression consequently was, that all proceedings against them-would be suspended until the answer of the Spanish Minister was received. The ' after thought' of Gen. Concha threw us all into a state of tiie greatest consternation. On Thursday evening last information was received that Estrampes would be garrotee! on the following Saturday morning. On Friday he was placed iu Capilla, and ou Saturday (yesterday) morning, he died.'" The writer adds :—■ " I witnessed the heroic death of Francisco Estrampes, whose last words were, 'Death to tyrants; long live Libertyl' when a special order-was given and the drums were beat to prevent the public from hearing his words, but the full, trumpet-like tones of his voice were distinctly heard, ' viva la Liber- tad ." twice repeated, above the sounds of the drums. This sanguinary act lias filled the bosoms of thousauds with a determination to be avenged. No means were left untried to move the stony heart of Concha. His own young daughter, upon her knees, prayed him to spare the life of the doomed Estrampes. He listened to her appeal, which was uttered while tears streamed down her cheeks, all unmoved. NEWS FROM THE STATES. Death of Martin Van Buren, Jr.—Martin Vanl Bnren, Jr., died at Paris on Tuesday, March 20th; A large number of Americans accompanied his remains to their temporary resting-place iu the cemetery of Montinatre. The deceased had been for along time wasting under the blight of consumption, but, his death was so sudden as to surprise even those friends who had despaired of his recovery. He had seated himself at the dinner table, when his head foil forward on his breast and he expired without a word, without a groan. An eloquent and touching allocution was pronounced at the tomb by the Pastor Coquerel. The audience forgot all feelings of party or of sect in sympathy for thebereaved father. Cuhan Affairs—Preparations for Wnr. The New York Times states that orders have gone to the vessels of our home squadron, to sink any foreign cruiser which shall again attempt to exercise tbe right of search as against ¡m American vessel on the high seas. Com, McCnuley was soon to sail for tho Gulf with sealed instructions. The destination ofthe sloop-of-war Jamestown, which, it was given out, was to join the African squadron, has been changed to the Gulf. The Government, is adopting energetic measures to strengthen the Navy. A bounty of $20 is offered to seamen to enlist in the service of the United Slates within sixty d:%'S. The New York Times says:—" The evidences are in abundance at Washington that the Spanish authorities in and about Cuba, both civil and naval, arc frightened half out ol'their wits at the thought of the pranks they have been playing with American vessels and American citizens during the last month or two. They feel that they have gone too far—that even the most pusillanimous meekness may be expected to resent such glaring outrages as they have subjected us to of late : and they are trembling at the thought that pay-day is quite sure tocóme. As an evidence of t;ie state ol mind in which they find themselves now, it is related on undoubted authority that a few days since a French man-of-war, laying in one of the inlets on the Coast of Cuba, was treated to a shotted salute from lite hole broadside of a Spanish steam frigate, which, instantly upon delivering her fire, ran off to seaward with all possible despatch. .'7.".er-Thorc has been some lighting at Sebastopol in which the Allies were worsted.

It is impossible for us to determine from the terms of the grant on which [Cor the Los Angeles Star.] Mr. Editor :—In this life's school, every day and larhasits lessons, something new and more or ss exciting, to stimulate us to learn, and to pro- ■ess. The experience of the past, is but a lesson for the future to those that are not either stupid or blind to their best interests. The wise man's education commences with life, and ends but in death: so we have found, and SO we feel, after a half century's experience. Aud such are our proclivities for progression, socially, morally and politically. that wc would not only do good, but also, if possible, communicate good to others. We have ofteii^known folks to hunt for their spectacle's vhmi they were really on their nose aud were actually looking through them. So we have often known folks pietedd not to be prejudiced or biassed in any way, yet, at the same time they are led and moved by prejudice. The fact is, people become so familiar with their glasses* or prejudice, us to really forget, or do not mink, that iliey have them on or about them ; and. hone-t'.ly so too. We think there are but few who are not giass- eyed, and look at men and things through some: kind of glasses. Men's interests generally lead ii'.eui; or, what they suppose arc their interests. P-Avty-ites see every thing through their respective glasses, and if needs be, would swear that such a thing was black, ulue, green, or shaded, according to their prejudices. Indeed, if is human nature, and so strong that neither the simplicity, excellence, or the unity ofthe Christian religion, influence men to sec alike. They loill look at things— euen the most sacred, through their glasses, and build their partition walls accordingly, though expressly forbidden. Then if the sacredness Of the Christian religion can work no exception to tins rule, wo conciude that all men are glass-eyed, anil it only remains si matter of choice in the color or shade ; and that we remember that we have them on, and the color thereof. Now let us turn this law to political account,and learn wisdom from experience-, as we can learn it iu uo oilier school. In politics but little can be accomplished by individuals acting alone, separately, er in small parties $ while by unity of action and combination, all our strength lies.—'"United we stand, divided we fall." Just see for instance, what the lawyers have accomplished by the unity of action, combination, aud a steady aim at th lead in the politics ofthe country. Comparatively but a few years ago, little " bar associations," in the different localities of the country commenced" where a half dozen oí lawyers could be got together : but now they are an organized fraternity throughout the laud, and boast that they are the Aristocracy of America .' they boast that they possess a natural affinity for politics, ü.nü control, iu a great measure, the political action of the country!" Can any patriot or freeman see these tilings without concluding that our lawyers have been wearing for years aristocratic glasses, anel have been stealthily setting their pegs accordingly? Do not they pattern after British aristocrats, and adopt British law, and establish arbitrary " court rules," by which to badger witnesses, substitute legal for MOitALjusticc, and exclude everyone but their own initiated from pleading—republican law ? Indeed is there a State iu the Union republican enough to make their own laws, and to be really as independent of British law as their boastings would indicate': We know of no State in the Union where British laws have not been adopted and are in force, and use ; and by the trickery of lawyer legislators, arc designedly kept so, for effect. Such is Republican* AMERICA,—republican in name, but aristocratic in practice. The PEOPLE —who are alright, and should be, the Sovekeioxs of Tin-: Soil, mo fuddled by flowery speeches, fair promises, and republican sung,- while lawyers slide into/hi offices, aud into our Legislatures, State and National; and so manage to get the lead in law- making ; after which it is but easy to constitute themselves the ouly legal pleaders, interpreters and judges of—Lawyer framed Law. They not only [control the public action of the country, but they control the people's money and property—as the game is played in the adjustment of California land titles plainly shows ; (of which we will speak again in an other letter.) And all we ask of the People is, that they lay aside their little party, or fortune making glasses, for awhile, and with true republican glasses scrutinize, in gooel earnest,what wc may have to communicate or suggest.

El California Meridional al dar esta noticia dice "que el alguacil para arrestar a López, pidió auxilio a los circunstantes, cuando Morris se presen' tó y acercándose a él le dio un hazadonazo que desgraciadamente lo dejó muerto." Esto se cree por mas probable, supuesto que según sabemos Morris disfruta de su entera libertad. Nada se dice sobre cual haya sido el delito que cometió Lopez, para que el alguacil lo quisiera arestar, siendo un joven que no se metia con nadie, como lo dirán tóelos L que lo conocían.

Gran Alarma ! jVnegO y Ti-nciios r El jueves a las diez de la mañana turo logar una gran reunion en el Hotel de la Belhr Union, y varios elocuentes oradores ascendieron una pipa (vacía por fuerza, sino fuese ueí hubiera servido para apagar el fuego que ardía en el pecho de todos los circunstantes) y arengaron al pueble. La cuestión era sobre ol supuesto fraude que dieesc haber sido cometido por los jueces durante la última elección municipal. El Candidato para Mayor D. Pablo Pt. Hunt sostuvo que no contaron, sus votos—que votaron mas de cien individuos en su favor, cuando solo tres están en la lista, uno do los cuales se aleg haber sido depositado per Hunt mismo!' No llega moa a tiempo para oír el discurso del primer Cicerón, cuya VOZ resonó por los cuatro ángulos de la ciudad. Después habló el Honorable Hunt sobre su elección, y dijo que en este mundo tenia un ene- migo, y este era el Sr. D. Guillermo- B. Osburn i Luego que acabó su plática descendié de su puesto eminente, y se confundió con los espectadores.— Estos gritaron que "salga el enemigo! Osburn! Osburn! " Ei señor Osburn ocupó inmediatamente el sublime ¡ruesto, y con graciosas palabras adquirió los aplausos mas estrepitosos y prolongados que jamás han aturdido el timpano del oído humano. Dijo que no era enemigo de nadie, etc. etc. y bajo' triunfante. El perseverante Hunt montó por segunda vez, sóbrela magnifica pipa, y quitándose respectuosa- mente el sombrero mutilado que tiene el honor de cargar dijo: " Gentlemen ! Si tengo1 amigos cn este mundo que salgan a un lado, y me sigan!" Toda la reunion siguió al orador y quedó desierto el Hotel. Se dirijió hacia la casa de la Corte, y no tuvimos la paciencia de seguirle. ■^i. La ley para la supresión del juego comen zara a tener efecto desde el 17 del presente. cía!.

Í0s5 SUjCÍfS SUw.
SATURDAY, MAY 12, 1835.
TO OUR PATRONS.
The fourth volume of the Los Angeles " Star''
will close with the present number, and wc take
pleasure in acknowledging that we have received a
generous and hearty support from a large circle of
friends. We are grateful for the liberal aid ofour
patrons, aud shall make strenuous exertions to elicit
a continuance of their favor and support. In a few
weeks we design publishing the paper entirely in
the English language, which we trust will meet the
approbation of our readers, and be the means of
ot extending its circulation. From the commencement of the fifth volume, tho subscription price will
ba reduced to five dollars a year, or three dollars
for six months, payable in advance.
The " Star" will not be conducted in future as
a partisan paper, for we believe a thorough-going
party adherent is in fact a political slave, a person
who allows all others, on all occasion to think for
him, and who, as far as politics is concerned, has
no principle or rule of action, save that of slavish
adherence and blind obedience to the dictation of
his party. We shall still continue to hold out to
our advertising friends the strongest inducements
for their favors, and as the " Star " has the largest
circulation of any paper in the State iuthc Southern counties, advertisers will, by furnishing material for our columns, consult their own interests.
A word to the wise is sufficient. A decent support is all wc ask, and which, we believe, a generous community will not fail to give. Then send
u» your names, for the next volume, for depend upon
it, you will not be the poorer for it in this world, or
sudor torment in the next, unless you f'crget to pay
I he printer.
Bounty Land Act.
A writer in the Washington 0nton estimates that
about 86,000,000) acre's of the public domain will
be disposed of under the operation of thiSaet. Applications are pouring into the Tension Office in
overwhelming numbers,—there having been in
only one week 18,400 applications under the Act
passed by Congress at its last session. A present
of thiriy-six millions of acres of land is surely a
magnificent reward fov military and naval services;
but unfortunately only a small portion of the benefit Intended by this act will reach those who should
be the sole recipients of this munificent donation.
We have no doubt that land speculators will be
mostly benefitted by. this law. We have always
been ofthe opinion that the only true policy of our
Government, would bc,to donate the public lands
to actual settlers, and not make them a source of
revenue to fill the coffers of our national treasury,
oran object of speculation by capitalists, who buy
the warrants for a mere trifle, and sell them to the
actual settler. Let the public domain be thrown
open in every State and Territory from the Atlantic
to the Pacilic, as it is in the Territory of Oregon,
and but few years will elapse before all the great
thoroughfares from the Mississippi valley to California will be peopled with a hardy and industrious population. Such settlements would be a safeguard aud promoter of emigration, and in conjunction with military posts render the routes entirely
safe from one extreme to the other.
Organisation of tlic Cily Goveiimuiit.
On Wednesday last, Judge K, H. J'iniiek administered the oath of office to Mayor FostBB and á
majority of the Common Council. Tbe Council
was then organized by choosing J. G, Nichols, Esq.,
President ol'the Board, and W. G. "Dryden, Esq.,
Secretary. The Board then adjourned until Tuesday evening next, at which time the Mayor will
deliver the annual message. The Council consists
of good men and true, and our citizens havo the
right to expect that our municipal affairs under
the new administration will continue to be conducted with an eye single to the best interests of
the city. Mayor Foster bust year advised an appropriation to be made to defray the expense of a
survey of the water power belonging to the city,
with a view of introducing pure water for domestic use. Wc are not aware that any objection has
been made to that appropriation, neither are we
advised why it has not been carried into execution.
A supply of pure water'is a great promotive of
health, the value of which can not easily be estimated ; and its introduction, if a feasible plan can
be devised, should be by no means lost sight of-
No one we believe seriously advocates auy mensure
that will have a tendency to entail a heavy debt
upon the city ; if there are, wo think that we have
men in the city Council that will resist to the last,
any extravagant legislation, and endeavor to retrench any city expenses that arc now deemed useless or extravagant.

Division of tlic State.
Our leaders will And on our first page the bill of
.\*r. Douglass, for a division of the State. It pro's iita for the erection of three States, out of the
present extensive territory; the Northern to be
known and designated as the State of Shasta, the
central. California, and the Southern, Colorado.
Although there is great diversity of opinion
among many of our most intelligent citizens, as regards the policy of the measure at this time, wc believe a largo majority of the population in Southern California arc in favor of immediate division.
Those who object to the measure as premature,
advance as the most potent argument, tho immense
increase of taxes in order to carry on and support
three distinct State sovereignties, yet they do not
deny that great benefits will undoubtedly How from
a division, as the interests of this great State taken
as a whole are so diversified, arrising principally
from position and pursuits, that general laws cannot be enacted that will subserve the interests ami
operate to the advantage of people in all parts of
the State. At this time there is no]grc'at question on
the tapis of a sectional character that will have a
tendency to array either section ofthe State against
the other, and hence for this reason mainly, wc believe the present the most auspicous time for a x>cac-
able and quiet division. The extension ofour influence in our National councils, when comprised of
five States on the Pacific, should receive an important consideration as tending to strengthen Ihe
bonds ot our common Union, which every native
American holds dear.
Though the lofty nmutitalns and sterile plains
seperate us from our kindred and our childhooiFs
home, no portion of the Union we arc proud to say,
are more loyal to theFederal compact than ourpco-
ple on the Pacific coast, and none would be more
prompt to discountenance any attempt in the diffusion of nullification sentiments in any portion of
the Union.
We will cheerfully open our columns for the discussion of this question pro and con, that when
the people arc called upon to act. they can judge
whether the benefits to be derived from a division
will be equal to its burdens.
How to get a Mormon Wife.
The Editor ofthe Deserct News, in alluding to
the difficulty of strangers obtaining wives among
them, specifies the following conditions :
" If a gentleman wishes to associate with our fc
males, let him repent and be baptized for therenns"
sion of sins. But this alone will not ensure his
success, for many have submitted themselves to the
ordinance of baptism and have added damnation to
themselves by hypocritically bowing to certain rites
and cerimonies with motives other than to glorify
(¡oil aud to save themselves from this untoward
generation. Let these go forth and preach the gospel to the nations, like tlie Mormon elders, without
"purse or scrip.'' Let them be mobbed, tarred ar.d
feathered, and whipped a few times for Christ's sake,
and not for their own follies; and return, after a
few years' labor, clear in conscience, pure iu heart,
and unspotted from the world. If they can do these
things, aud endure, they may begin to associate
with our females, and seek among them a companion and partner for the life that now is and for
that which is to come."
There maybe some rusty old bachelors among
us, who would be willing to submit to all these trials, and indignities, if by so doing they could have
a choice of some twenty or thirty Mormon girls and
take them to their bed aud board, but few would
do it for one apiece, so long as there are plenty of
Indian girls which they can obtain without the ne.
cessily even of paying amarriago fee. ThoMormon
girls must offer better terms than these, to induce
strangers to seek among them a companion and a
partner for life. Our Mormon cotemporary may
be iu a strait to obtain a wife even after exhibiting
the indications of tar and feathers in his hair, and
tho whip onhis back, and hence thiswaruingwhich
was probably intended asa caution to outsiders not
to intercferc with his chances of success.
Election in Kansas.—A dispatch from Independence to the N. O. True Delta, says :
"We have returns from Kansas, showing the
election of the pro-slavery ticket at Bull Creek,
Lawrence, Douglass, Doniphau. Tecumseh, Shaw
nee, Mission, and Dickey Point, by majorities from
200 to 800. Tlie elections were conducted with
tolerable quietude. Tlie editor of thelvansas F'ree
State was ducked in Kcw River by a mob, on account of a speech delivered by him. Probably no
anti-slavery men arc elected to the Legislature. A
large procession paraded here to celebrate tbe victory."
This election was for the choice of the first Territorial Legislature, and consists of a council of
thirteen members chosen f'or two years and a House
of Representatives of twenty-six members chosen
for one year.
A New Paper.
We would call the attention of our citizens to
the Prospectus of Don Francisco P. Ramirez, who
proposes publishing a paper in the Spanish language, eutitlcd El Clamor Público, which will be
devoted exclusively to the service and interests of
native Californians.
The confidence that is reposed in the Editor and
Proprietor is a certain guarantee of his success,
and the very low subscription price, at which the
paper ¡s afforded, will draw forth we trust a liberal
patronage. As soon as circumstances will permit,
the advertisements in the Spanish language in the
Star, will be transferred to El Clamor Publico, by
which arrangement five more columns will be opened to our Patrons aud English readers. This will
offer new inducements to our subscribers and advertisers, and make the Star, a desirable medium not
only for the merchant and trader of this city but
also of San Francisco.

JOHN FORSTER.
^sS-From Cuba.—The intelligence from Hanvna
is of the most exciting interest, and we should not
be surprised to hear by the next mail, that a rupture between the two G overamente bad taken place.
Our consul at Havana has notified Gen. Concha
" that if one drop of American blood is shed dur
ing the present crisis, the United States Government will not be answerable for the result. Orders have been received at the different navy yards
in ■'.■he Union, to fit out with the utmost dispatch
all our available naval vessels, and prepare them
for immediate service. Nothing but war was talked of in the Atlantic cities, and the Administration
seems to be preparing for any emergency.
The following extract of a letter from the N. Orleans correspondent ofthe S. F. Herald, recording
the execution of Estrampcs.a martyr to Cuban lib
crty, is of general interest:
The steamer Cahawba arrived yesterday with
dates from Havana to the 1st inst. She firings the
intelligence that Senor Estrampes su tiered death by
the garrote on the 31st of March. Great excitement is said to have prevailed in Havana ou the
subject, as popular sympathy was very generally
with him. About 15,000 persons arestnted to have
been present at the execution. Mr. J. B. Felix, an
associate with Estrampes in the attempt to introduce arms on the island, has been sentenced to ten
years imprisonment at Ceuta, on the African coast.
Several other persons have been tried, but their
sentences were not yet known when the Cahawba
left Havana. A letter dated April 1st, says :
"It would appear that the protest which the
Acting Ü. S. Consul made against the trial of Felix
and Estrampes, and the attitude assumed by the
Government at Washington in relation to it. at first
somewhat staggered Gen. Concha, who, I understand, abeut Wednesday or Thursday last, addressed a note to the Acting U. S. Consul, couched in
rather indefinite language, it is true, but which
stated that the case ofthe above named parties"
would be referred to the Spanish 'Minister at Wash
iugton, and the general impression consequently
was, that all proceedings against them-would be
suspended until the answer of the Spanish Minister
was received.
The ' after thought' of Gen. Concha threw us all
into a state of tiie greatest consternation. On
Thursday evening last information was received
that Estrampes would be garrotee! on the following
Saturday morning. On Friday he was placed iu
Capilla, and ou Saturday (yesterday) morning, he
died.'"
The writer adds :—■
" I witnessed the heroic death of Francisco Estrampes, whose last words were, 'Death to tyrants;
long live Libertyl' when a special order-was given
and the drums were beat to prevent the public from
hearing his words, but the full, trumpet-like tones
of his voice were distinctly heard, ' viva la Liber-
tad ." twice repeated, above the sounds of the
drums. This sanguinary act lias filled the bosoms
of thousauds with a determination to be avenged.
No means were left untried to move the stony
heart of Concha. His own young daughter, upon her
knees, prayed him to spare the life of the doomed
Estrampes. He listened to her appeal, which was
uttered while tears streamed down her cheeks, all
unmoved.
NEWS FROM THE STATES.
Death of Martin Van Buren, Jr.—Martin Vanl
Bnren, Jr., died at Paris on Tuesday, March 20th;
A large number of Americans accompanied his remains to their temporary resting-place iu the cemetery of Montinatre. The deceased had been for
along time wasting under the blight of consumption, but, his death was so sudden as to surprise
even those friends who had despaired of his recovery. He had seated himself at the dinner table,
when his head foil forward on his breast and he
expired without a word, without a groan. An eloquent and touching allocution was pronounced at
the tomb by the Pastor Coquerel. The audience
forgot all feelings of party or of sect in sympathy
for thebereaved father.
Cuhan Affairs—Preparations for Wnr.
The New York Times states that orders have
gone to the vessels of our home squadron, to sink
any foreign cruiser which shall again attempt to
exercise tbe right of search as against ¡m American
vessel on the high seas.
Com, McCnuley was soon to sail for tho Gulf
with sealed instructions.
The destination ofthe sloop-of-war Jamestown,
which, it was given out, was to join the African
squadron, has been changed to the Gulf.
The Government, is adopting energetic measures
to strengthen the Navy. A bounty of $20 is offered to seamen to enlist in the service of the United
Slates within sixty d:%'S.
The New York Times says:—" The evidences
are in abundance at Washington that the Spanish
authorities in and about Cuba, both civil and naval,
arc frightened half out ol'their wits at the thought
of the pranks they have been playing with American vessels and American citizens during the last
month or two. They feel that they have gone too
far—that even the most pusillanimous meekness
may be expected to resent such glaring outrages as
they have subjected us to of late : and they are
trembling at the thought that pay-day is quite sure
tocóme. As an evidence of t;ie state ol mind in
which they find themselves now, it is related on
undoubted authority that a few days since a French
man-of-war, laying in one of the inlets on the Coast
of Cuba, was treated to a shotted salute from lite
hole broadside of a Spanish steam frigate, which,
instantly upon delivering her fire, ran off to seaward with all possible despatch.

The Board in their opinions had frequently to refer to the
decision of the Supremo Court in tins I'l-cmont Land Case.
In deciding Case No. .¡'iu. Commissioner Farwell Raid :—
The survey ]ii-f'-i!iitfd bv Ihe petitioner and the accom.
pan Ing plat.' exhibilshmds lying on each side of the river,
with the river lying nearly in the centre. It is impossible
for us to determine from the terms of the grant on which

Mr. Editor :—In this life's school, every day and
larhasits lessons, something new and more or
ss exciting, to stimulate us to learn, and to pro-
■ess. The experience of the past, is but a lesson
for the future to those that are not either stupid or
blind to their best interests. The wise man's education commences with life, and ends but in death:
so we have found, and SO we feel, after a half century's experience. Aud such are our proclivities
for progression, socially, morally and politically.
that wc would not only do good, but also, if possible, communicate good to others.
We have ofteii^known folks to hunt for their
spectacle's vhmi they were really on their nose
aud were actually looking through them. So we
have often known folks pietedd not to be prejudiced or biassed in any way, yet, at the same time
they are led and moved by prejudice. The fact
is, people become so familiar with their glasses* or
prejudice, us to really forget, or do not mink, that
iliey have them on or about them ; and. hone-t'.ly so
too. We think there are but few who are not giass-
eyed, and look at men and things through some:
kind of glasses. Men's interests generally lead
ii'.eui; or, what they suppose arc their interests.
P-Avty-ites see every thing through their respective
glasses, and if needs be, would swear that such a
thing was black, ulue, green, or shaded, according
to their prejudices. Indeed, if is human nature,
and so strong that neither the simplicity, excellence, or the unity ofthe Christian religion, influence men to sec alike. They loill look at things—
euen the most sacred, through their glasses, and
build their partition walls accordingly, though expressly forbidden. Then if the sacredness Of the
Christian religion can work no exception to tins
rule, wo conciude that all men are glass-eyed, anil
it only remains si matter of choice in the color or
shade ; and that we remember that we have them
on, and the color thereof.
Now let us turn this law to political account,and
learn wisdom from experience-, as we can learn it
iu uo oilier school. In politics but little can be
accomplished by individuals acting alone, separately, er in small parties $ while by unity of action
and combination, all our strength lies.—'"United
we stand, divided we fall." Just see for instance,
what the lawyers have accomplished by the unity
of action, combination, aud a steady aim at th
lead in the politics ofthe country. Comparatively
but a few years ago, little " bar associations," in
the different localities of the country commenced"
where a half dozen oí lawyers could be got together : but now they are an organized fraternity
throughout the laud, and boast that they are the
Aristocracy of America .' they boast that they
possess a natural affinity for politics, ü.nü control,
iu a great measure, the political action of the country!"
Can any patriot or freeman see these tilings without concluding that our lawyers have been wearing for years aristocratic glasses, anel have been
stealthily setting their pegs accordingly? Do not
they pattern after British aristocrats, and adopt
British law, and establish arbitrary " court rules,"
by which to badger witnesses, substitute legal for
MOitALjusticc, and exclude everyone but their own
initiated from pleading—republican law ? Indeed
is there a State iu the Union republican enough to
make their own laws, and to be really as independent of British law as their boastings would indicate':
We know of no State in the Union where British
laws have not been adopted and are in force, and
use ; and by the trickery of lawyer legislators, arc
designedly kept so, for effect.
Such is Republican* AMERICA,—republican in
name, but aristocratic in practice. The PEOPLE
—who are alright, and should be, the Sovekeioxs
of Tin-: Soil, mo fuddled by flowery speeches, fair
promises, and republican sung,- while lawyers slide
into/hi offices, aud into our Legislatures, State and
National; and so manage to get the lead in law-
making ; after which it is but easy to constitute
themselves the ouly legal pleaders, interpreters
and judges of—Lawyer framed Law. They not only
[control the public action of the country, but they
control the people's money and property—as the
game is played in the adjustment of California
land titles plainly shows ; (of which we will speak
again in an other letter.) And all we ask of the
People is, that they lay aside their little party, or
fortune making glasses, for awhile, and with true
republican glasses scrutinize, in gooel earnest,what
wc may have to communicate or suggest.
