tdllol through the n9rthern part OF Western Cali
fOrnia, they discovered an extensive gold mime
which enabled them, bya few days delay, to bring
sufficient OF the dust to make money plenty in this
place for all ordinary purposes OF public conve-
nence in the exchange the brethren deposited the
gold dust with the Presidency, who issued bills, or
paper currency: and the kirkland Safety Fund -
resigned, is on par with gold.
On the LIST of January last, John Smith, uncle to
the Prophet Joseph Smith, was ordained Patriarch
of the Church, holding The keys and powers there
of, same as father Joseph Smith and Hiram.
All the vacancies in the list of Twelve Apostles
were filled on the 18th of February last
The valley is settled for 20 miles south and 40
miles north of the city. The city is divided into
10 wards, the country south into three wards, and
north three wards, and over each is ordained
Bishop with his Councillors, with NewalI X. Whit
ney, President of the Bishops Quorum, presiding,
who have been instructed to set in order all the
lesser officers.
About thirty of the brethren have recently gone
to the Utah Valley, about 60 miles south, to estab-
llsh small colony for agricultural purposes and
fishing. hoping thereby to lessen the call for beef,
which, at the present time, is rather scarce at an
average of and cents per pound, but will i'm
prove with the vegetation.
The wards of the city generally consist of nine
blocks, each three square, and each ward will be
fenced by tselfth season, the plan of big field
for the purpose of saving time for cultivation.
In consequences of Indian depredations on our
horses, cattle, and other property, and the wicked
conduct of a few base fellows who came among the
Saints, the inhabitants of the Valley as is common
in new countries, generally, have organized tenn
porary government to exist during its necessity, or
until we can obtain charter for Territorial Gov
eminent, petition for which is already in progress
There have been large number of schools the
past winter, in which the Hebrew, Greek, Latin,
French, German, Tahitian and English languages
have been taught successfully.
Last fall the brethren had liberty to cut all the
timber within thirty miles of the city, provided
they would haul it into the city in the course of
the winter.
The month of March, and April to the 4th, was
very mild and pleasant, and many small crickets

" The GovERNoR's MEssAsE.-We
present our readers this week with Gov.
Johnston's message. 1t is a document
which is calculated, generally speaking, to
give satisfaction to all, steering kind Of
medium course between the extremes Of
parties. His remarks in regard to the war
4 tariff will meet with general appreciation.
The subject of the relief issues forms an i'm
Portant topic in the message. We think
the whole batch OF this filthy currency
should be Withdrawn from circulation, by '
loan if possible, but if not, by Reissue, -
recommended by the Governor. As this
is the first message issuing from Wing
Governor, it will be read with interest.
For want of room, we have omitted .
