TnE AREA OF UrAu-It may be matter of
interest to many of our readers to know some
thing of the comparative extent of that Terri
tory Of the United States whose chief officer
is bidding defiance to our Government Ac-
cording to Cotton, the area Of Utah is 269, 10
square miles. To engineers and few others,
this will give just idea Of its vast extent, but
the majority of people viii form better esti-
mate by being told that It is as large as the
whole Of the New England States, New York.
New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Mary

pare it with European countries, il is equal in
extent to Great Britain and ireland, switzer-

The WEATnER.-A At Ilornitos, for the past
week, the weather has been extremely disa-
grceable the wind at times blowing almost a
gale. In fact, it seemed as if Sol and Boreas
had agreed to rchearse at our expense, the fa-
BILE in which Esop says they tried their res
pectve powers on the traveller in time past.
A few very slight showers have fallen-not
sufficient, scarcely, to lay the dust. Snow and
hail passed over the mountains east OF the
Bear Valley range, and near Bondville, on Sat
urday night and Sunday last, and the sum
mits Of all the higher range Of mountains were
covered with snow. Sunday, the 2lst, is the
vernal equinox, and shortly after we may ex-
pect this blusteiing, disagreeable weather TO
subside, and if we are to have any rain this
Spring. it may be expected about that time.

If it becomes necessary the sutters, contractors,
