FoREIGSERs AND UrAH.-A writer from Utah af-
ter speaking OF various shocking outrages perpe-
trated by the hormons, says:
"The Uaited States Surveyor General was in
formed not long sgo that letter would leave the
Territory without their knosing it, contents, even
IL the Gentiles Shout attempt 20 smuggls them
through 10 cracker sacks this ruse TO get commu-
nications 10 the United States, without the vio-
l4ton of their sear, having been tried success
fully.
The contractor to carry the mail Is a man BIZ the
name of KimbAl, and Il is said that ne sold out his
contract 10 Brigham Young WHO is complete mas
ter OF the correspondence Of the country.
Ia looking over tbs correspondence from Sit
Lake and 10 examining other authorities, We d s.
cover that a very large share Of the people OF Utah
are alike in birth and feeling. They are generally
not natives OF the United Stats; and this, We are
told Is prcalarly true Of those III posed to CON-
nit and actually committing the greatest atrocities
The chief advisers u Brigham Young are foreign
ers. Those most ready 10 incite rebellion, most
guilty Of treason, and most disposed TO mischief
the most b artless and cruel 70 those Of tender
years and OF the weaker ssx, OF foreign impor-
tation."
This fact We have ore prexioGO occasion bfonght
prominently before cur readers.
We presume that the Democratic organs. upon
the d eovery OF the Interesting fact that the great
OF the wretches who praetice all sorts Of In
iqaisies 81 Utah are forsigHsrs win decide that the

ET- According to general report there was a
kind Of special Assize Court held night before last
below the city, near the site of old Fort Rosalie
and beneath the early light of the waning moon.
IL was one of those courts over which neither our
high court or Circuit Judges preside. but which are
called into being occasionally by the necessity of
the case.
II seems that quite a number of valuable negroes
have been stolen or run off from this neighborhood
within few weeks back. The absenting slaves are
generally believed to have been enticed away by
white men, under pretence of a safe conduct to
Northern cline but who, after getting possession
Of the negroes, have beartIessly sold them. One
or two slaves thus deceived away, have been recov-
cred while others still absent.
L. is generally reported that man by the name
OF Foster, who gave himself that name, and who
had been implicate in this Wholesale business of
Degro-stealing, taken somewhere below Fort
Ro>alie night before last and had administered to
him a most royal cow-hde q gellalion, well laid on
after which skff was rendered him with free per-
Tisson to travel to other vicinity where ne
gro-stealing was differently punished. Under the
effects of his punishment, il is understood that he
made full confession, duplicating some other per-
sons in this vicinity. We presume the LITTER will
find Notchez an undesirable place Of residence
Public feeling is somewhat excited with regard
to this mater, and With no small degree OF usti6-
| cation. About three weeks since. quite a large
number OF negroes made their escape from a neigh
| boring county, aud upon examination it Was found
that book and pamphlet psdlar had been about;
and that amid bis multliarious pursuits had been
that OF distributing tracts, within the paper
| of which was pocket, aud in that pocket printed
slip addressed to negroes, of a most inHammatory
and wicked nature. 1t is hardly 20 be wondrrrd
At that when cases OF tampering with slaves be-
come frequent, SOCIETY rises superior TO it's laws,
and frees itself OF those pests ich Il would be
unable to cast of, did it Ssit for depend entirely
on the laws deiNy.-Nstchez Courier, June IS

DISEASES or TIE LIVER.

II" When the celebrated DR.. Rush declare d
that drunkenness was disease, he enunc lated
truth which the experience and observation Of
medical men is every day confirming. The
many apparently insane excuses of those who
indulge in the use Of spirituous liquors, may DO
thus accounted for. The true cause orconduct,
which is taken for infatuation, is very frequent
~ diseased state Of the Liver. No organ in
the human system, when dorangcd, produces a
moro fghtfu catalogue of diseases. And it,
instead Of applying remedies to the manifesto
tons of disease, az is too often the case physi-
clans would prescribe with Wow TO the origi-
nal cause, fewer deaths would result from dis
eases induced by derangod state OF the Liver.
Threc-fourths OF the diseases enumerated under
the head Of Consumption, have their seat in
diseased Liver. DR.. M'Lano's celebrated Liver
Pills, prepared by Fleming Bros., are certain
cure.

seasonnbie Advice.

The Courier, published at Newcastle,
Henry county, Indiana, contains the follow.
ing seosonable suggestion, which is worthy
of attention in all places where there are
groves Of sugar maple
After the first of March, every pound of
sugar YOU buy will cost you fifteen cents a t
least. This is u very unusual price, aud to
persons OF moderate means places this in
dispensable article almost IN the category Of
Injuries. We say, therefore, prepare your.
self for the sugar season, and make snlii-
Gent for your own family use. and some to
spare. Get your troughs ready, make your
sples and be ready by the frs, sugar day to
tap the trees The first run is always the
best, and you should DO ready to avail your
self OF it. II onr iarmery will take hold Of
this matter right, with anything like "a.
vorable season, our county can produce su.
mar enough for home consumption, and save
an actual cash outlay of $1,000.
OF Some Of our farmers during the late
fine weather, did tap their trees, aud put
their camps in readiness for sugar making,
but the complain, is pretty general that the
yield OF sap is small, and 1t so strong as u.
sual. title more frost, which we will
have erelong, doub tess, will regulate this
matter. Be ready, Their, and go at it when
the sign is right, You can make it pay
Your surplus sugar AMI molasses is su re to
command good prices.

Is Winter Broke s--The weather for some
days past, has been quite Spring like. and
reasant--unususlly, and unseasonab bly, so,
we may add. We do not profess to be wea.
rncrwise, indeed, quite otherwise, but what
the signs are we may venture to pen and
publish, for the benefit Of the curious. The
ground hog sign is ID failure. as we are as.
sured By y subscriber in the country, who, as
he was coming to town on Tuesday last,
saw and set his dog on fine large speci-
men OF that genus. That ground hog didn't
stay in his hole six weeks certain; though
he should have done so to have been an or
DERBY ground-hog, as required by appearan-
