We pIesune. there will not be much con-
iroversy sbout the treatment Of the Territory
Of Utah. The law establishing Tefiloria!
government there should be repealed. There
is no purpose of making State out Of that
Organization al present; and consequen n,ly
no warrant for il in the Constitution Of the
United States. Ifhas long been feared thai
there was no remedy for the evils 10 Utah,
but in crushing them out by force. II is a
painful conclusion TO come 10, and one that
no party would be willing 10 act upon until
forced 10 do SO by the conduct of tbs Nor,

! Hihese fanatics had acted with a little
mote craft, and applied for admission iato the
Union with Constitution made under the
territorial authorities, they would doubtless
have been admitted If they he'd disguised
their evil practices until they had become an
independent State, they might have Iegalized
their abominations, and lived on, in spite OF
the scorn and disgust of all the other States.

SMALL Pox AND VACCINArIoS-


 nal of Health has the following:
 From extended and close observation the following general deductions seem to be war ranted:
 "1. lnfante vaccination is an almost perfect safeguard until the fourteenth year. ?. At the beginning of fourteen the system graduallv loses its capabllity of resistance, until about twenty one, when many persons become almost as liable to small pox as if they had not been vaccinated. B. This liability remains in full force until about fortytwo, when the suscepti- blllty begins to decline and continues for seven years to grow less and less, becoming extinct at about tltty, the period of life when the general revolution of the body begins to take place, du- ring which the system yields to decay, or takes new lease ot life for two or three terms of seven years each. 4. The grand practical usc to be m 'do of these sentiments is: Let every youth be re-vaccinated on entering fourteen; let several attempts b9 made so as to be certain of safety As the malady is more likely to prevail m cities during the winter, special attention k invited to the subject at this time"
