HOOPS ALL THE TINE.

'Tis due to you, fair madens,
To have a line from me;
Some writer's have abused yor, 80
loppose who e'er they be.
They speak Of you, hosped fades,
As knocking children down,
OF sweeping public lands,
As you "go bobbin' round"
Now, those who are concerned.
And feel themselves in danger,
Receive council from friend,
Although he be stranger.
When in the street you see
The sign Of hoops a conlng,
Step lightly to one side,
For there's no need of running
Now ladies, wear the hoops,
They look 50 very neat;
Much better than to see
Your dress arosnd your fesA
Spread out your silken skirts,
q. Wear hoops some three or four,
For they ara beautiful indeed,
So ladies wear them more. J. ",

The lady could not stir, but trembling
between fear and expectation, stretched

INDIAN AFFAIRS IN UraH.-Cbmn,unieation from
Brigtsat I0Hng Brigham Young, In comniuni-
cation to the Indian Bureau, says that If he is to
have the direction of Indian affairs, and is expected
to maintain friendly relations with with the In

the Infamous practice of shooting them when they
happen TO see one. Hence il is natural that they
wreak vengeance in retaliation. The government
shonld make more liberal presents. lie has proven
that is far cheaper feed aud cothe the Indians
than to fight them. When the fighting is over, 10
is always followed by expensive presents, which, IL
properly distributed In the first instance, might
have averted the fight.
The troops, he also says, must be kept away; for
it is fact that wherever the most Of these, there
We may expect to find the greatest number of hos
tile Indians and the least security 70 persons and
property. II these items be complied with, he has
hesitation in saying, that so far Utah Is con-
cerned, Indians would modest the persons or
property of travellers lie says that the Department
has often manifested Its approval of his manage
ment of Indian affairs, aud never its disapproyal,
and why should he be bjected TO such annoyances
in regard TO funds for paying expenses, and Why
denied his salary, Why should the appropriations
for the benefit of the indians of Utah be retained
in the treasury and individuals left unpaidy These
are questions, he says leave for you TO answer AZ
your leisure and in the meanwhile submit 10 such
course IN relation thereto you will see fit to

THEATRE.-The popularity of Miss
Maggie Mitchell, the "reigning star" at this es-
tahishment, has thus far sufced to attract crowd
ed houses each evening she has appeared. Tonight,
the drama of Go Satan in Paris" together with the
farce sf Antony and Cleopatra" are announced
The first was rendered famous long since by the
artistic renditions of Mrs. Alexina Fisher Baker,
who Was always considered great in the character.
Miss Mitchell is creditable successor of that ad-
mirable artist. All who visit the Theatre tonight
will doubtless be pleased with Satan In Paris"
The farce called Antony and Cleopatra" though
twice played before, to large audiences possesses
some Objectionable features, and we hope it will be
withdrawn after tonight.
