Important Decision as ro Water Rights.—In
1857, the Mokelumne Hill Canal and Mining Company obtained a heavy judgment in a District
Court against the owner ot a ditch for damages
sustained t.y reason of the ditch owner having diverted the waters from the bed ofa etream above
the Mokelumne Hill Co.'s flume, and using the
water for mining purposes, thereby muddying nnd
charging the stream with sediment. The Gala
veras Chronicle says :
On the trial ihe Court charged the jury, in sub-
fclauce, '-that if the Mokelumne rrm ov-nnpnuj
were the first appropriators of the waters of the
South Fork, they were entitled to their exclusive
use and possession ; and if they had sustained any
damage by reason cf the defendant's muddying
or staining tbe waters of the South Fork, they are
entitled to recover all such damage by them sus
tained—-that the plaintifls were entitled to the
water in its pure and natural condition aa it was
when they first took possession of it."
The plaintiffs had judgment, and Mr. Woodbury
appealed to the Supreme Court. On the 21st
inst,., the Supreme Court rendered its decision, reversing the judgment of the District Court, and
declaring the decision made bv tliem in the case
of the Bear River Company vs. The Little York
Company, '-to be the settled law in regard to
ff ater Rights." That decision gives the locator
the right to a sufficient quantity of water to fill
his works, but denies his right to recover from a
subsequent appropriator any damages for muddying the water or charging it with sediment above
the point of his appropriation. That to give him
an exelui-ive right to it iu its pare condition,
would be ruinous to a large portion of the mining
regions of the State. Under this law tbe locator can only complain of the diminution of the
water, and decides that the mud and sediment
with which it is charged, are incident to its use.
of which they have no right to complain."

This city has, for the past week or two. presented one cotisiant scene of drunkennesB, quarrelling
and fighting It is not the Mormons who have
be,;n guilty of the disgraceful sccues which have
been enacted here, but the place is filled with a
crowd of gamblers, loafers and teamsters from lhe
frontier towns ou the Missouri river, who have
ccme out here in order to pick up some of the
money thrown iuto cireub.tion by the atmy. The
Mormons, either through fear, or from a desire to
make capital out of this state of affairs, neglect
and refrain from making any arrests, but allow
tbese drunken men to promenade the streets, hooting and yelling at the top of their voices, shooting and knocking down each other without restraint. The elderly portion ot the Gentiles have

_Ou Thursday night last a  fatal  rencontre took
place between two gamblers—O. Bucker and
Peale—which resulted i
the former, and the probable death of the latler.
The origin of the difficulty, it seems,--was an old
oue, although its immediate cause was a difficulty
at the gaining table. Peale was very much in
toxieated at the time of the encounter and wis
the aggressor, having followed Bucker—who was
endeavoring to avoid him—for the avowed purpose of killing him. When they met, {Prole ran
close up to Bucker and -hot him through the
breast, causing him to fall immediately,but whilst
thus laying down, mortally wounded, Bucker fired
five times at Peale, shooting him through the
hip and head. It is supposed that he will not re
cover from these wounds. Bucker'was a native
of Tennessee and resided in New Orleans for several years past, but mure recently in Sacramento
city.

In taking a walk, recently, I noticed that workmen were busily engaged in building a stone wall
across the street which divides Heber Kimball's
square from that of Brigham Young. Both . ot
these squares are enclosed by high stone walls,
and now by building walls across the street be

Some ot the Mormons, at least, have not forgotten their old tricks, for the residences of three

tiles for support, and living in different sections
of the city, have been stoned, and the inmates
frightened at night by gangs of young men who
have not beeu identified; ihe police of the city
take no notice of these occurrences, but on the
contrary, seem to aid and abet the actors.

Snow fell to a considerable depth, on the moon

This report, however, probably needs qualification,
and means that they died from the sudden change
from heat to cold.
The army has moved into its winter quarters.
These quarters, or rather barracks, are temporary

General Herran has presented the ratified Cass-

which they evince towards this country. No definite action will be taken upon it by our Government until the approach ofthe session of Congress.
Our Government is deterniued to pursue the
policy that the Isthmus routes ol America shall

had the Jess difficulty in preparing what follows-
rnmediate death of J As to Ex-Gov. Boutwell, the sketch of htSFpeech
pub ished in the Post, so far as it alludes to Sena^
tor Gwin, is equally false. I would not be surprised
if he was the Post's correspondent. He did mak«
a most disgraceful speech for the commencein*ht
of a literary institution, by fervent hopes that the
time would soon come, when lhe negro and thy
white man would be on an equality, eal and sleep
together, on this continent. The introduction cf
this sectional question into tbe ceremonies of the
commencement of a venerable and renowned university, sufficiently siatnpa the man. In reapomt

ofthe University ;—

Golden shores of California—alike the bounds of

Senator Gwin said, Mr. President :—I am in.
formed that this ancient seat of learning sent forth
Bachelors of Arts before the Battle of Lexington.
Il is. therefore, a monument of which Americans
may be llie prouder because we have so few to
boast of. Excepting as to churches and iustitm.
ions of learning or usefulness, the age of so called
monuments has passed away. In former times
they were erected—often vainly—to commemorate
(he triumphs of idolatry or of barbarous power,
Tbis idea prevails from tbe pyramids through tho
temples of Greece and Rome to the eastles in
which the feudal Barons of the middle ages found
shelter from the retribution due to rapine and
crime. As a traveler on Ihe Pacific. I have wit"
uessed the gigantic monuments cf Spanish rule
now crumbling to dust—for neither the cathedral
northe massive battlements could resist the attacks of ibat spirit ol free thought and free action
which our history has sanctified by the name of
Revolution!
The monuments of our age and country are living ores, and it depends only upon the people loal
they be perpetual. The railway, the telegraph,

treasure the legacy of your forefathers as & pre"

I have often inquired of myself why so few of
the descendants if ihe Roger Wil lams Colo y
settlement should have fouud their way to California. A delightful sojourn here during the past
few weeks has enabled me to answer the question
to my entire satisfaction. You are well enough
to let well alone. The sea and fisheries carry off
for a time'those restless spirits which belong to
every community, and they, I fancy, are almays
happy to return to the blue waters and green fields
of old Narragausett. While in agriculture, commerce and the various trades and manufactures,
the more sadate and old fashioned portion of your
population  fiud ample and remunerative   occupa"

are to reside at Ten-sin. and have intercourse
with tbe Imperial Cabinet.

And if these facilities for Western travel do not
entice you. others will j for let me fell you that
tboee liberal provisions of our government for th«
colonization and settlement of those vast Western
territories, are but tlie precursors of that great
national interoceauic railway which, before the
lapse of many years, will connect with an iron
baud, the mighty East, and the growing West, as
the Siamese twins nf North American liberty.
The notices of the Senator's speech, in the several Providence papers, the Post, Journal, and

published in the Post, being complimentary, and
iu no instance taking any exception to his remarks. AN EYE WITNESS.
