A LEGAL LoTuARIo IN A PREDICA-
MENT.-A limb of the law and amateur
actor, who has for some months been
desperately enamored Of the lovely
spouse of another lawyer, and had his
passion rcciprocated, was placed in an
unenyiable position last Monday after
noon by the husbands unexpected re-
turn. The lover suddenly retreated to
the garnet, leaving his hat and boots,
and a pistol lying on the shelf, which
the husband found, and in company
with q stout Dutchman, he started OIL
a voyage Of discovery, with C.'s pistol
in hand, his dear wife not being able;
to give him any information. lie found
him in the garnet, minus his hat and
boots, and threatened to shoot him.
G. opened his vest and told him to fire
away if his life was any more valuable
to him than it was to it's owner. But
C.--both the lawyers names begin with
C-did not shoot, and Mrs. G. put her.
self again and again between the pistol
and her lover, and retired only at the
instance of her paramour, who stated
that he was unable to express himself,
AS a man should in such circumstances,
while she was presentr Finally the in.
trudcr was persuaded out the back way
demonstrating against the loss of his
hat and boots, which the indignant hus-
band refused'to give him. But instead
he fired some three shots at him and
missed him every time. Mr. G. jump
ed over the fence into the alley, where
he found his hat and boots had preced-
ed him, and he forthwith put them on
and walked off. The Hason thus sud
denly terminated, has been continued,
we are informed, nearly year. The
husband left this morning for the East
with his truant wife to take her to her
mamma.-Free Democrat.

Atlantic Gable Laid !
Trinity Bay. Aur.

Trinity Bay, Aug. 5.
10 the associated Press:
The Atlantic telegraph fleet sailed
from Queenstown, on Saturday, July
II, and arrived at midnight ON
Wednesday, the 28th. Made the
splice at Z. NJ. on Thursday, the
goth, and then separated, the 4AgaOaeu,-
non and T0lorous bound to Valencia,
Ireland, and the Niagara and Gorgon
for this place, where they arrived yes
terday, and this morning the end of the
cable will be landed.
1t is 1893 nautical, or 1850 statute
miles from the telegraph house at the
head Of the Valentia lIarbor, to the
telegraph house, Bay Of Bulls, Trinity
Bay, and for more than two-thirds of
this distance the water is over two
miles in depth. The cable has been
paid ont from the 41gonaeonon, at about
the same speed as from the Niagara
The electrical signals sent and re-
ccived through the cable are perfect.
The machinery for paying out the ca
BILE worked in the most satisfactory
manner, and was not stopped single
moment from the time the splice was
made until we arrived.
Capt Hudson, Messrs. Everett and
Woodhouse the Engineers, and Elec-
tricians, and Officers Of the ships, and
in fact every man on board the Telc-
graph fleet have exerted themselves to
the utmost to axe the expedition sue
cessful, and by the blessing Of Divine
Providence it has succeeded.
After the end OF the cable is landed
and connected with the land line of tel
egraph and the Niagara has discharg-
ed some cargo belonging to the tele-
graph company, she will go to st. Johns
for coal, and proceed at once to New
York. CYRUS w. FIELD.

in case he receives the nomination at
Prairie du CHEN.
After adjournment, we called for our
bill, as We had been induced to take
the boy Harris to his lodgings, and
could remain no longer, as the exigen-
cies Of the case demanded immediate
care. Landlord looked astonished-
his eyes actually elongated-and he
stammered out that he never before
heard of an editor who had anything
to pay with, and begged us to hold on
with both hands to what few dimes we
might be burdened with, and he would
pledge us big salary to travel with
him and be exhibited as an editor not
"dead broke" Being very modest, we
naturally complied with the request to
keep the dimes, but humbly declined
to be Honized in an exhibition.
Next morning we returned home
80 cents "out;" 20 cents for hops, and
- for bobbin. We're going to Stan
ton again.

TIC correspondent Oh Inc N. l.

ing picture Of this event:
GREAT SALT LAKE CRY, T.. T.,
Saturday, July 3.
The Army of Utah, under command
of Brevet Brigadier- General Johnston,
entered this Valley on Saturday, the
Goth ult., an hour or two later than my
letter Of that date was mailed to you.
1t was about 81 o'clock in the morning
when the right Of the advance column
emerged from the cleft of the Wasath
Mountains known as Emigration Can
on, and began to spread its long line
over the tortous road down the ''bench"
towards the city. The day was per-
fectly clear, and the whole line ofmarch
could be distinctly seen as the troops
trailed over the gentle slope from the
mountain foot to the river bottom, pre-
senting the finest possible view which
could be had of an army in notion
Gen Johnston had issued an order on
the evening preceding his entrance to
the city, commanding the enforcement
of the strictest discipline whilepassing
through the city and ordering the in
slant arrest of every man, who should
leave tac column under any pretence
whatever. The object of this order
was achieved, @~r the army presented
an example of the most perfect deco
rum, neither by word or deed manifest
ed the least symptoms of the il-will
which it was we'll Known was felt
among the troops toward the people
who had kept them freezing on Green
River during long and comfortlcss
Winter.
The line Of the army as it trailed in
to the city was at least ten miles long,
and when the head of the column had
advanced to the temporary camping
ground west of the Gordon River flow
inc through the valley bottom, we could
look from the Generals tent and see
the @listcning bayonets and the snowy
wagon covers Of the rear still dcfling
out from the mountains. The scene
was magnificent and cheering to Gen
tile eyes, but exceedingly humiliating
to the few Mormons who witnessed it,
men who had repeatedly prophesied
1EIn the name Of Israel's Cod that the
Army should never enter the Valley,
and whose private conversations and
public speeches for months past have
been full Of brave declarations of their
power and determination to sec that
the prophesy was fulfilled. 1t is due
70 them to remark here, however, that
IJhcy still maintain their ability to have
excluded the army, declare that they
would have done it had volunteers
been sent instead of "regulars," OF if
the Peace Commissioners had not
come and made them promises which
they chose to accept as conditions of
their forbearance. But more upon
these points anon.

Gen. WIN. A. Walker has publish
ed long letter in the Mobile ode rt's-
err Of July Goth, in which he said that
his statement-so fatty denied by the
w ashington Lni0n-that the Presi-
dent had made oyertures to him in re-
gard to the invasion of Mexico, was
founded not OH his own knowledge, but
on the information Of one of his Gener-
ais.
In Benton, Yates county, New
ork, few days since, man named
Naldron shot two young men, while 4
party were serenading his newly mar
ried son-in-law with tin horns. One of
the wounded, named Gage, has since
died. 1t is said that both he and his
companion were mere spectators of the
proceedings. Waldron has been ar
rested.
Mr.. George Thompson, after an
absence i'll India of two years and q
half, has arrived in London, having re-
turned to England via the Cape. Mr..
Ihompson's health was in so critical a
state during the voyage, that little hope
OF his recovery was entertained; but,
although still sufferiog from extreme
debility, there is every probability of
his early recovery.

TIE ASSESSMENT LAw.-The Wa,
tertown Democrat has the following
with regard to the new assessment law:
The assessors of this city are now
engaged in the discharge Of their du,
ties. The result of their labors so fal
has disclosed some curious facts. Fol
instance, more personal property liable
to taxation has been found in one small
ward alone than was assessed in the
whole city last year. How it makes
some OF EN- squirm.
It strikes us that law which brings
tora51e property to light in that manner
cannot be very bad law.
