UNION SCHOOLS.

Gid The, winter term Of our. Union Schools
closed last week, We were unable to at
tend the examinations in the different de-
partments, but have been told by those
who were present that the manner in
which the pupils acquired themselves
was alike creditable to their teachers and
themselves. 81 80.
c The most interesting event connected
with the closing Of the term, however.
was the pubic exhibition given by the

great credit upon those who sup rintend-

were very successful in the performance

EwTe Travellers through the West.
THERE'S one great cause of s"licitude to
all who visit our western world in the fear
OF contracting that most distressing COM

all who are called from their eastern homes
by business or pleasure will be glad to
learn of some safeguard which will secure
them against the attacks of this ever pres

Cure" is the article and the only one,
which can be relied upon as protection
against the diseases incidental to the west.
With this shield Of safety in ones posses

be visited with perfect .impunity, as it is
impossible for any one to Contract The dis

TAX LAw.PASSED.

'suWe learn from the State Journal of a
late date that the tax law passed the
House of Representatives a few days ago.
1t had previously been passed by the
= Senate and is now law of the State, of
course. 1t attempts to do away with the
great evils that have been felt under the
operation Of the new Constitution. as ex-
pounded by the Courts. a' Whether it is
possible to doso without achange Of that
Instrument is one of the questions that re-
mains to be- tried. The bill has been
carefully considered and digested. and
will soon be laid before the people.

Utah Knocking at the Door.

The last news from the Mormon COM
munity at the Great Salt Lake, (the true
name of the latter, Lake tTrimpanogus,
seems to have been dropped cc::2nngs an
intimation which the progress of events
in that quarter had led US to expect. 1t
is, that the Mormon territory is prepar-
ing to apply for admission into the Union
as State. Gov. Young-he is still Gov
ernor in fact, though nominally removed
from Office long since IN hisannual message
to the Territorial Legislature, proposes
that census be taken. preparatory to
framing a, State constitution for that pur-
pose, Brigham Young is President and
autocrat OF the Mormons, Hitherto his
will has been the paramount law of the
community. and it may be safely assumed
that his recommendations on the present
subject will be faithfully carried out by
the Legislature. What does it matter if
the Territory has not the requisite a
mount Of population?-It will be easy e.
nough to magnify the aggregates, and no
one knows anything of the mode OF oper-
ations adopted in that secluded and
mysterious region. We have never yet
seen any returns of an election published,
though Legislatures are alleged to be G.
lected, and some one appears in Congress
regularly at every tssion, as an elected
delegate. Hence the amount Of popula-
ton is no stumbling block. But suppos.
ing that out of the. way, is the communi.
ty in 1 tab fl to be admitted into the I'm.
ion in the capacity ola sovereign State?
What assurance have we that the rights o
our citizens will be respec ed there? Nay
do We not know that no non Mormon Office
holder has been able to retain his position:
Yet. under Mr. Douglas doctrine o.
squatter sovereignty. we have no power
to refuse the admission Of this lheocratic
State. Its people have framed their insti
tuions to suit themselves They have
made the region untenable by any excepr
persons Of their own belief, without direct
ly infringing the national constitution in
its provisions respecting, exclusive forms
of resigion. They occupy the same ground
precisely with the Missourians, who are
endeavoring to thrust from Kansas every
body not favorable to, the establishment
ola certain Institution And here we SET
the evil effects of fthatinactivity which ha'
characterized the policy Of the two las
administrations, respecting this abomina
BILE Msrmon nuisance. The r nix weee
which has been suffered to grow at will
has waxed strong, and threatens to sprese
over a wide firld. And still we mus
not. interfere with it. but suffer it to grow
on until interference will be imp ossible.-

EE- Mr.. Christopher D.. Seropyan. Of
New Haven, has recently invented pro.
cess, which, il is alleged, furnishes COM
plete safeguard against counterfeiting in
any of its forms. The face of the bill is
first covered with chemical preparation
of a light yellow tint, leaving the denom-
ination Of the bill in letters Of the origin
al color of the paper. The plate printing
is then done with blush black ink, which
has the peculiarly Of penetrating the pa
per, and of being translucent when held
between the eye and the light. The com
position Of this ink is known only to the
inventor, and prevents the possibility of
counterfeiting by means Of a new plate.
The chemical contrast between the ink
and the surface Of the bill is so destroyed
as to render photographing impossible,
and no chemical agents can alter the de-
nomination without dis6guring the BILL
Neither can the ingenious pasting process
be made available, as the denomination is
visible on the back as well as on the face
of the bill. The process has been sub
mittcd to the examination of some of the
mcst eminent chemists in Yale College
who express the opinion that it is a 1oe,Jec
projection against counterfeiting by photo
graphy and the anastatic process, and also
against alteration Jy erasure or otherwisc
Some of the Banks at the Eastward have
procured the right to use it, and the pro
cess will probably come into general use
