The Bea Remedy for Sheep Killing Dogs.

"
TO sH Opass ef Sheep.
Stop trying to kill the dogs when you find
that they are killing your sheep. They are
not easily caught, and but few farmers have
guns in readiness at every hour, or can al
ways kill even when they have guns; do not,
therefore, lose time in preparing your guns.
Tell your servants, your sons, your neigh
bors, never 10 raise the cry when they see
or hear dog among the sheep. DO not be
afraid Of losing sheep or two. But 90 out
at once and follow the dog; get on your
horse, il convenient; but go on softly on
foot, rather than lose time either for gun or
horse; follow him until you have seen him
and can identify him. When you are salts
fed, then drive him of, or Kill him il you
choose, but would advise not; let him live,
YOU may need him; dead dog is worth but
little, live one may be Of real value; he
belongs TO his master, therefore let him live.
Do not hurry OF in bad temper to com
plain to his master, and perhaps to hear bis
abuse for your pains; but turn and look at
ter your sheep; count the killed, estimate
ne damage; get some prudent neighbor. II
convenient, TO assist you be sure you find
our the full extent Of tie injury; If part Of
the flock are injured, but living, wait until
YOU see what number will die, aud what num-
ber will be worthless Of the injured ones.
| Then, with every thing quiet and cool, 90
TO some magistrate; select farmer who has
family 20 clothe and feed; one who knows
the value Of sheep to farmers, as well as to
butchers; aud who also knows the value Of
packs Of dogs. which live at the expense Of
/ the community or otherwise. Then let the
owner Of the dog hear Of the circumstance,
/ first through the magistrate, then when called
on lay your complaint before him. and lei
the remaining part Of the proceeding be il
accordance with the law on the subject; and
nv word for it, We shall soon have more SC.
curity for our sheep.
Perhaps you are not aware Of the nature o.
the law on the subject; il not. read it, or ge
some one to read il Tor you. Let every one
who owns either a sheep or dog do this, ant
some will be convinced that they lose the fol
value Of their sheep. simply because the,
make no effort 10 recover IL; and others vii
find that their great regard for worthless
dogs has and is yet laying them liable to pa,
heavy damages TO their neighbors. u.

BE GENTLEMEN AT HoME-There arc
few families, We imagine, anywhere in
which love is not abused as furnishing the
license for impo'iteness. A husban d,
father or brother will speak harsh words to
tlose he loves, and those who love him best,
simply because the security Of love and
family pride keeps him from getting his
head broken. 1t is shame that man
will speak more impolite to any other female
except low and vicious one. 1t is thus
that the honest affections Of mans nature
prove to be a weaker protection to woman
in the family circle than the restraints Of
society, and that woman usually is indeb.
ted for the kindest politeness Of life to those
not belonging to her own household. -
Things ought not SO to be. The man who,
because it will not be resented, inficts his
spleen and bad temper upon those of his
hearth stone, is small coward and very
mean man. Kind words are circulating
mediums between true gentlemen of society,
and nothing can atone for the harsh Ian
guage and disrespectful treatment too often
INDUCED in between those bound together
by Gods own ties of blood, and the still
more sacred bonds Of eonjugal loye.-Late

Inyeiglem emit Of a Young Lady Into
ffIg HOuSA Of Ill-Fam0,

The New York correspondent of the Bos-
ton Atlas and Bee narrates the following
singular case Of the inveiglement Of young
lady into a house of ill-fame, the particu-
lars Of which have not before appeared in
print:
The young lady, most respectfully con-
nected. was on the street pleasant after
noon, unattended, upon shopping ex-
petition, when she was accosted by we'll
dressed lady,. who stated she had been seiz-
ed by sudden illness, and begged to be as
sisted to her home, which was but short
distance. Her air and manner were APP
psrently SO sincere, that, not doubling but
she was rendering the woman kinndess,
the young lady at once acceded to her re-
quest, and accompanied her to house in
the vicinity of Mercer street. No sooner,
however, had she entered the door, than
she was seized by two men, gagged. her
wrists bound, and taken up three fight of
stairs into room apparently well furnish
ed. Here she was kept close prisoner
until about FIVE o'clock in the afternoon of
the next day, or little more than twenty
four hours. Without going into the details
Of this imprisonment suffice to say that
every device of force and persuasion was
put in requisition to induce her to accede
to the wishes Of the villains who made her
prisoner, but without success. Force was
made use Of to make her drink, but she
stoutly resisted, inficting some severe
wounds-with her teeth upon her inhuman
adversaries. Offers Of money were at va
rious times made, which she Indignantly
spurned.
During all this time she watched for an
opportunity to escape. None, however.
presented itself until late in the afternoon
Of the next day, when she was for few
moments left alone, though, as was sup
posed by her keepers, securely fastened
Reduced to desperation, she actually gnaw-
cd in two the cord which bound her wrists,
seized her bonnet, and finding the door Of
The room unfastened, rushed out of the
house and made the best Of her way, more
dead than alive, to her own home. On
her way she met one Of the villains by
whom she had been imprisoned, but in the
open street he dare not modest her. He,
friends, alarmed at her absence, received
her joyfully, and to them she related her
thrilling adventure, at the same time sta.
ting she had tasted no food during the past
twenty -four hours. On administering some
nourishment to her she in short time be-
came gdelirious. and in that condition re-
enacted her own part in the drama in which
she had so recently been an actor; and
out of which her virtue had come seattle;

MORMON PoL1GAM1srs- SEvRN WOMEN
70 ONE MAN.-The Army correspondent of
the New York Tribune writes:
"On or about the 10th Of June, Mr.. /.
Justice one ofour party was despatched by
Mr.. Lander to Salt Lake City, for men to
build the Pacific wagon road. On the I'd
day of August Mr.. Justice reached camp
with fifty men, principally Mormons, with
one or two discharged soldiers or transfers.
OF the fifty men there are only FIVE Ameri-
cans. The Mormons are Sweeds, Danes
and Englishmen all the most illiterate men
ever met with.
The majority Of the Mormons we have
with us are much embittered against Brig
ham Young. Esq. From them | learn that
Young has eighty-six wives and forty nine
children. The ages Of his wives vary from
seventeen to thirty-6ve, or whereabouts
Some of children are manageable. His ell
dest daughter was married short time since.
His son who is about nineteen, will not mar
ry but is wild young fellow. One of our
troop possesses no less than seven wives.
gazed upon the man when he told me this
with look of great surprise. He asked
me the cause Of it. I told him it really
surprised me to see man who had impudence
enough to tell me he had what belonged to
six other men. told him I considered him
q wholesale thief and brute. He said it was
7..kind "a brutish,' and I would think it so
for certain if should ever visit his house.
{" What is the reason Z" asked ,e
"'Pn tell you,' said he. Woman is a
strange critter it makes no difference if you
have hundred on 'um, they all will want
your affection at one time but you see it
can't be done.' ~
''He then informed me that his home
contained but three rooms one was his par
lor one large bed room and the other
his kitchen and eating room. The bed room
held three large beds and the room was pref
ty well arranged He said he was getting
tired of their quarrels with one another. l
told him such was nay opinion also as he ap-
peared to be very thin and meagre.
In our whole flock Of Saints on their ar
rival at this camp from Salt Lake, not one of
them had a suit Of clothing fit even for the
poorest slave or beggar and their appetites
were surprisingly good. Col. Lander i'm
mediately clothed them and gave them good
provisions. and after short rest set them to
work. They began Justify, and are now
ranking among our best workmen. After
the work is completed Or rather when winter
sets in the Mormons will return to their
homes and in the spring will meet us and
finish the road completely. They depend
more on Uncle Sans gold than they do on
Brigham Young's promise be they Mormons
or not.
