Tear down your Mill-dams.

The law passed last winter by our Black
Republican Legislature "for the protec-
ton of fish" after prohibiting the taking
of fish by means of nets &C., provides
against '~obstructing IN any way the matu-
raj transit Of fish mp or down any river or
creek Goose ponds, mill dams and the
like are undoubted 'obstructions' to the
natural transit of fish and as no excep-
ton is made for them, their owners had
better remove them before they are greet
ed with a notice from the Constable. 1t
appears hard that q mill dam should be torn
down for the accommodation ola few sill

majority of the then actual bona fde resi-

With these views, we'll known to the
President and Cabinet, and approved by
them, 1 accepted the appointment of Gov
ernor of Kansas. My instructions from
the President, through the Secretary of
State, under date of 3Oth of March last,
sustained "the regular legislature of the
Territory" in assembling a Convention
to form a Constitution" and they express
the opinion Of the President, that "when
such q Constitution shall be submitted to
the people of the Territory, they must be
protected in the exercise of their right of
voting for or against that instrument; and
the fair expression of the popular will
must not be interrupted by fraud or yio-
lence."
1 repeat, then, as my clear conviction,
that unless the Convention submit the
Constitution to the vote of all the actual
resident settlers of Kansas, and the cleo
ton be fairly and justly conducted, the
Constitution will be, and ought to be re-
Ijectcd by Congress-"

FROM UTAH.

David H. Burr, Surveyor General OF
Utah, has arrived at his home in Wash
iugton. He states, i'll conversation with
his friends, that the Mormon Legion is
poorly equipped and that one thousand
United States troops would over-awe
them. Before he left Utah the Mormons
had not heard of the intention of the Gov
eminent to send o force thither, but they
frequently laughed at the Government
compelling them TO obedience to the Fed
eral laws. They cite the failure to put
down the disturbances in Kansas as evil
dence of its inef6ciency, and he supposes
one-third or one-half of the Mormons who
have become disguised with Young's tyr
amy would rise against him if protected
by the U. S. troops. Burr does not ap-
prehend the Mormons will show fight, as
it is the duty of every good Mormon to
obey the church as higher law, and hence
the opinion is entertained that Brigham
Young will leave the Territory with a
large force of his deluded followers, pro-
vided he can find some other seat for his
government. He also says that Salt Lake
is the meanest settlement he ever saw
everything having the appearance of alb
ject poverty. Young's word is law, and
punishment for opposition to the Mormons
is cruel and without remedy from the pres
ent rulers. There are about fifty gentiles
only in the Territory, who are objects Of
bitter persecution.

seven columns, and treats upon all the in

or. We have. only space for an extract
touching the approaching constitutional
election. In his review of the subject of
schools, public lands and Indian titles, the
Governor exhibits an intimate knowledge
of the state and necessities of territorial
affairs. He urges the citizens each and
all to exercise every political right, to
secure quiet and prosperity by an early set
Element of the question of slavery and an
early admission into the Union. Among
other things he says:
"But it is said that the convention is
not legal, and that the election will not
be freely and fairly conducted. The Ter
~ritorial Legislature is the power ordained
for this purpose by the Congress of the
United States; and opposing it, you re-
sist the authority of the Federal Govern
ment. That Legislature was called into
being by Congress of 1854, and is reeog-
nized in the very latest Congressional leg
i~slation. 1t is recognized by the present
Chief Magistrate of the Union. jus: chosen
by the American people, and many of it's
acts are now in operation here by univer-
sal assent. As the Governor of the Ter
ritory of Kansas, I must support the laws
and the Constitution; and I have no
other alternative under my oath, but to see
that all Constitutional laws are fully and
fairly executed. e
! see in this act calling the convention,
no improper or unconstitutional ~restric-
lions upon the right of suffrage. I see in
it no test-oath or other similar provisions
objected to in relation T. previous laws,
but clearly repealed as repugnant to the
provisions Of this act so far as regards the
election OF delegates to this Convention.
1t is said that q fair and full vote will not
be taken. Who can safely predict such a
RESULT Nor is it just for a majority, as
they allege, to throw the power into the
hands of q minority, from a mere appre-
hension-(I trust entirely unfounded)-
they will not be permitted to exercise the
right of suffrage. II, by fraud or violence,
a majority should not be permitted to vote,
there is a remedy, it is hoped. in the wis.
dom and justice of the Convention itself
acting under the obligations Of an oath
and a proper responsibility to the tribu
nal of public opinion. There is a rene
dy, also, if such facts can be demonstra

In the death of Mrs. Davenport society has

circle of relatives has lost one of the most

sorrow be tempered by the reflection that "they
mourn not as those who have no hope" From
