Utah..

The territory of Utah is attracting pub
lie attention at this time, more than any
other scope of country in North America
We learn from our eastern exchanges that
the Administration is about taking decided
steps to enforce the laws of the United
States among that rebel.ious people. Two
or three prominent men have signifed 6
willingness to accept the Governorship
provided the President will send suffi
Gent number of troops to protect the off
GERS and court records. General Harvey
has received instructions to proceed in the
direction of Fort Leavenworth; 9, 500 troops
have also been ordered, and there seems Il
be no doubt but the President designs send
ing them to Salt Lake.
1t is to be hoped that this Mormon ques
ton may be kept aloof from politics. Al
acknowledge that the laws Of the United
States should be enforced there as well al
elsewhere; and the general impression il
that it would be the height of folly to sent
officers there unless there were enough
srooLs sent to awe them in.o submission
or compel them to yield obedience to tn,
laws.

A NEW WRINKLE.

A funny story is told of an old friend of ours,
one who sick and tired of the hustle of city life
has retired into the country, and "gone to farm
ing" as the saying is. His land albeit well sit,
uated and commanding sundry fine prospects,
is not so particularly fertile as some we have
seen-requiring scientific culture and liberal
system of manuring to produce an abundant
yield So far by way of explanation.
Once upon time our friend being on visit
to New Orleans, was attending an auction sale
down town, and as it so happened, they were
selling damaged sausagcs at the time. There
were sold eight or ten barrels of them, and they
were "just going at fifty cents a barrel, when
the auctionecr, with all apparent seriousness,
remarked that they were worth more than that
to manure land with. Here was an idea. "Six-
ty-two and half cepts-third and last call
gOne!" retOrted the auctionecr. "Cash takes
them at sixty-two and half cents per barrel ~
To have them shipped to his country seat
was the immediate work of our friend, and as it
was then planting time, and the sausages, to use
common phrase "wero getting ns better very
fast" to have them safe under ground and out
of the way was his next movement. He was a
bout to plant field of several acres of corn-the
soil of tho piny woods species-so here was just
the spot for this new experiment in agriculture,
this new wrinkle in the science of geoponics.
One link" of sausage being deemed amply suf-
ficient, that amount was placed in each hill, ac
companicd by the usual number of kernels of
corn, and an occasional pumpkin seed, and all
were nicely covered overin the usual style. Now
after promising that several days have occurred
since the corn was planted, the sequel of the
story shall be told in dialogue between our
friend and one of his neghbors
Neighbor-" Well friend, have you planted
your corn?"
Friend" Yes, several days since"
Neighbor-"Is Is it up YETI"
Friend-" Up yes and gone; the most of
it."
Neighbour" How is that?"
Friend" Well, you see, bought lot 6f
damaged sausages the other day in New Orleans,
a smooth tongue of an auctonecr saying they
would make excellent manure if nothing else.
/ brought the lot over, commenced planting my
corn at once, as it was time, planted a sausage
in each hill, and
Neighbor-" Well, and what? ?"
Friend" And felt satisfied that had made
good job oft. Some days afterwards went
out to the field to see how the corn was coming
on, and pretty piece of business have made
of trying agricultural experiments"
Neighbor-"W Why, what was the matter?"
FRIEND" Matter the first thing saw be-
fore reaching the field was tho greatest lot of
dogs digging and scratching all over it There
were my dogs, and your dogs, and all the neigh
bors dogs, besides about three hundred strange
dogs never set my eyes on before, and every
one was hard at it mining after the buried sai-
sages. Somehow or other the rascally whelps
had scented out the business, and they have dug
up every hill by this time. If could set every
dog Of them on that auctioneer, I'd be salts
fed"

"Hcre," said he "put one OF these pebbles
into your brandy bottle every day If you let
it always remain in, the brandy will not do
you any HARM" -,
The sick man believed that the pebbles had
the power of making the brandy harmless, and
every day put one into tho bottle. In this
way he drank few drops less each day, with
out observing it himself; and in the end, when
the bottle was full of pebbles, he had weaned
himself from the destructive habit Of drinking

HARD TIMES.


" Hard Times is now on every lip,
And breathed from every tongue;
The banks are cursed by one and all,
The aged and the young.
The merchant has to close his doors,
And throw his ledger by;
Such times, he vows, were never seen
BY any mortal eye.
The shopmen quit the counters side,
For customers are very few;
The times are now so very "r'GHr,"
II makes them oil look "blue."
The citizen in vain essays
To make more than his bread;
A pound of which, he now declares,
Won't weigh pound of lead!
There's not day but some one fails,
Some house that goes to smash;
And names that onco stood high on CHANGE
Are out for want of CASH.
Those whom we thought were MILLIoSAIREs
And rich IN shares of stocks,
Their MILLION HEIRS now disappoint,
Fail, and leave no " Rocks"
Hard times hard times Was ever seen
Such times as hard as these?
This is the cry from morn till night,
In which each one agrees.
A remedy think I've found,
Say, how do you think twill do9
"Pull off your coat, roll up your sleeves,
And work these hard times through"
