L. Lovejoy, Speaker of the House; and on the 28th of the same month it adjourned over to the 20th of August, after the adoption of a memorial to Congress upon various subjects connected with the interests of the Territory, such as the granting of land to immigrants, &c. John P. Gaines, of Kentucky, succeeds Gen. Lane as Governor; Gen. E. Hammond, of Ohio, is his Secretary; and William Strong, U. S. Judge. MINNESOTA.-Henry H. Sibley (Loco) was elected on the 1st of August a Delegate to Congress (without opposition) along with the first Territorial Legislature, but, as party lines were not drawn at this election, no estimate as to the political affinities of the Territorial legislators can be made. It was in session two months and transacted much important business. David Olmsted was President of the Council, and Jos. W. Furber, Speaker of the House. The Territorial Government is composed of Alexander Ramsey, Governor; Charles K. Smith, Secretary; Aaron Goodrich, Chief Justice; David Cooper, B. B. Meeker, Associate Judges; Joshua L. Taylor, U S. Marshal; Henry L. Moss, U. S. Attorney. Beside these officers (appointees of the President), the Governor has appointed the following:-Lorenzo A. Babcock, of Benton Co., Attorney-General; Jonathan E. Mc Kusick, of Washington Co., to be Anditor of Public Accounts; Calvin A. Tuttle, of Ramsey Co., Territorial Treasurer. On the 11th of June a census was taken of the Territory, when it was found there was a white population of 4,680, exclusive of soldiers at the military posts, and the immigration since that time has been at least equal to this estimate. The Indians have a population of 25,000. The Legislature have memorialized Congress for the purchase of the Sioux lands west of the Mississippi. The Territory covers a vast extent of land (166,000 square miles), sufficient to make four or five States when sufficiently populated. Union-situated in the Valley of the Great Salt Lake, embracing what is STATE OF DESERET.-This new applicant for admission into the called the Great Basin of North America-adopted quite a liberal Constitution on the 10th of March. Brigham Young was elected Governor; Heber C. Kimball, Lieut.-Governor; Wm. Richards, Secretary of State; Jos. S. Heywood, Treasurer. On the 5th of July the Legislature met in joint session, and elected Almon W. Babbitt as a Delegate and Representative to Congress. The population is mostly composed of Mormons; they prefer a State Government, and thus relieve the nation of gre expense. If Congress ratifies the Constitution cf Deseret, two Senators and a Repre sentative will soon be chosen from there. ----470 .........321 NEW MEXICO.-Incipient steps have been taken by the inhabitants of this Territory for the formation of a civil government. At a Convention of Delegates from the various counties, on the 28th of September, Hugh N. Smith (formerly a lawyer in Missouri) was chosen a Delegate to Congress. Major Weightman received four votes in the Convention. There are plenof inhabitants there to form a State, being over 106,000, but they prefer for a while a Territorial to a State Government. STATE OF CALIFORNIA.-We have no returns yet of the election here, which was to be held on the 13th of November, for State officers and two members of Congress.

The Publishers, in their Prospectus, say, that they are "Resolved that no American journal shall exceed the Tribune in the variety, extent, or accuracy of its Intelligence, while to Literature, Poetry, and Art, they devote all the space that can be spared from the topics of the day." The following extracts from notices of this Paper, published in various parts of the United States, will show how far the Publishers were justified in the foregoing announcement:- NEW YORK TRIBUNE.-Although we differ from this print in several very important matters of political economy, we are none the less willing to acknowledge its unequaled merit as an American press; generally dignified, always talented, and ever marked by a heart-felt desire for the true ele THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE.-This powerful journal, which is a perpetual fountain of thought and opinion upon all moral and political subjects, seems full of its original vigor and freshness.

We do not hesitate to say that the New York Tribune is the best newspaper in the United States.

Almost every man who is a politician has read The Tribune. Its reputation and influence are confined to no particular locality. The Tribune has attained an influence throughout the country more extensive and commanding than has ever been exercised by any other paper in the Union-we make no exception. It furnishes its patrons an amount of matter fully equal to that of any other journal; and its means enable it to compete, successfully, with its cotemporaries in the variety and freshness of its contents.-Greenville (0.)

This paper has a wide circle of friends, and enjoys an extensive and well-deserved patronage.
