Utah Affairs.

We learn from Washington that the
troops ordered for Utah will concentrate
and take position upon the government
reservati on, forty miles south of the Salt
Lake valley, and await orders and events
1t is suggested that Gov, Young has taken
measurs to resist the federal authorities
and to increas his large military force by
an alliance with hostile Indians. When he
shall be superseded as Governor, bis autho.
rity will be paralyzed in the Territory, and
he must either leave it or be subjected to
prosecution for his fagitious acts. If he
holds his ground he must make open war
and that is said to be his intention. His
abuses have been SO long tolerated, that he
has gathered undue confidence in his
position, which may soon be diminished
after the government shall take decided
stand in opposition to him.

"lVon Handed Justice"

The Mormon papers are mourning deep
ly over the death Of Pratt, who was killed
by Mclean, whose wife Pratt seduced and
carried away to hisi haremi at Salt Lake
City. They represent him as "great and
coed man, and ono of the fathers in Israel"
That he was "father" in Israel, nobody
doubts; but that he was either "great Or
good man." is probably great mistake
He was just what every other "father" in
Utah is, miserable imposter and unsancti-
fed scamp. He was chosen emissary
sent out by Brigham Young to seduco more
crcdulous and depraved men and women in
to his stupendous brothel, whore allthe del
ioato relations which exist between husband
and wife, all of the pnre affections which
enter into that relation, are trampled under
foot, and women made slaves to these beast.
ly "saints." The husband who killed
Pratt, will be sustained by every Christian
in the country, and deserves the approving
smile of the Power above. If every one
of these "lathers" of Mormonism were SER
we'd in the same way, it would be an ex-
cellont thing for their deludcd followers
and the world at large.
