UrAH.-After all, what is the great use Of our
army in Utahf The Mormons commit as many
outrages rs ever, almost without check, and they
have organized Courts of their own, before which
tribunals the Identities" have little or no chance
OF Justice while the polygamc "Saints" are toie-
rably secure Of impunity Besides, these Courts
come in contact every now and then, with the
Federal jurisdiction. which is regarded by the
people of Salt Lake Valley, not only with deri-
sion, but with something like defiance. We hope
Congress will give the earliest possible attention
to the affairs of Utah, and that it will demand to
know why the laws are thus set at naught. with
the means at hand for enforcing obedience to them
1t does not comport with the dignity of the gov.
ernn,ent to permit this Mormon Disgrace and
Mormon crime to 60 longer snpunished, nor Is il
at all compatible with the safety and inviolabity
OF life and property in that Territory. The peo-
Pile have right to bo indignant at the conduct

The FORREST SuIr.-The great Forrest divorce
case commenced six years ago, has just boon
brought to final determination in the courts Of
New York. The New York Herald says:
lie (Forrest) declined to pay her anything
whatsoever in the shape of alimony, having like
the jew of Venice, "nn oath in Heaven" to con-
test the to the bitter end. Tho only money
received by Mrs. Forrest from her husband were
some small allowances while the case was being
tried. And now, whom the final issue is reached
when the Judge who presided at the trial, and
the most important witnesses who testified upon
it, are dead-we have an award which compels
Mr.. Forrest to nay at least double tho sum given
to Mrs. Forrest BY the jury, and three times wha,
it could have been settled for previous to tho tri
al. The referee awards to Mrs. Forrest four thou
sand dollars per annum from the time Of the trial
and compels Mr.. Forrest to give bond and mort
gage security for its prompt payment. What
with counsel fees, costs and incidental expenses
&C.. the sum total to come out of the great TRACE
dams pockets, to say nothing of the wear and
tear of his temper, which must have been some
thing awful, will not be much less than hund
red thousand dollars; and. withal, he has fair
prospect of paying alimony for many years yet to
come. Mrs. Forests being considered. in the as
surance view, q good life. In fact, annuitants,
like Office holders, rarely die and never resign
their claims.

HAlR.-When it IN beautiful, l admire and

hair that was hideous TO tho sight and repulsiive
to the touch,--other, also black that charmed tho
eyes and wooed tho fingers. Fashion has as
serted herself even in this particular. There have
been timcs when the really fortunate possessor of
such brown tresses us Miss Lnrchcss would have
been deemed unfortunate No troubador would
have sung her praises; or II hc did, he would ei-
ther have left her hair unpraisod or else lod and
called IT golden, meaning rod rs we know by tho
illuminated books of the Middle Ages. Had she
lived IN Venice, that great school OF color two or
three hundred years ago, in the days Of Titan

probably have sat upon u balcony, with her locks
drawn through crowness broad -brimmed hat

DIR. BENJAMIN FRANKLlN.-We perceive that
discussion has ben raised in one of the I'm glish ps
pcrs, as to whether DIR. Franklin was, or was not,
an inhdel. Whoever considers tho American
philosopher rs atheis,icn commits great error.
and exposes an objectionable ignorance. Az the
opening OF the National Convention for framing
tho present American Constitution, DIR. Franklin
nmons other sentiments, said: II have lived,
sir, long time (eightv-one years.: and the lon
ger live. the more convincing proofs Of this
truth. that God governs in the affairs of man.
And il sparrow cannot fall to the ground with
out his notice. is 1t probable that an empire can
rise without his aid We have been assured,
sir, in the Sacred Writings, that unles tho Lord
build the house. they labor in vain that build II.
firmly believe this. ard also believe. that with
out Ills concurring aid. we shall succeed in this
political building no better than the builders of
Babel; weshall be divided by our little partial, To-
cal interests; our projects viii be coufoundsd and
We ourselves becomes roproaoh and by-word
down to future ages. And WHAT'S worse, man
kind may hereafter from this unfortunate instance
despair of establishing government by human
wisdom. and leave it to chance, war, or conquest.
! therefore. beg leave to move, that, henoeforth,
PRAYERS imploring tho assistance Of Heaven, and
it's blessings, upon our deliberations, be held in
tins assembly every morning before VIC proceed TO
busness; and that ono moro Of the clergy of
this city be requested to oiciate in that service"
Surely the above must be sufficient to satisfy any
man, as to Franklin's sincere religious principles
and belief

Observation OF FAcrs.-Liebg justly notices
the excessive difficulty of really good observation.
1t is an art only acquired by long practice and cul
turc. People speak of iacts with n confidence
which, to the philosopher, is quite amusing. Ho
is as ready as they can be- even more so, TO admit
the validity Of facts but he is not 80 ready to ad
init that the observations they ohristcn by that
name are arc trne facts. "Tho man." says Liebig
who only secs with his eyes an object before him
has no claims TO the title Of an observer, which is
reserved for him who takes notice Of the different
parts of tho object, and sees the connection be-
tween tho parts and the whole" There are "iacts"
to support every nbsurdity. No speculation was
ever no baseless as not have some "fnct' on which
to rest. But many individuals overlook tho half
ct an event through Cal ecsncss; another adds to
what lie observes the creation of his own imagina-
tlons; whilst third, who sees sufficiently distinct
y the different parts Of the whole, coniounds to-
grthcr things which ought to be kept separate"
Llebig gives an amusing illustration of the valuo
OF tho evidence furnished by uncultivatcd witnes
scs in tho Goclitz trial in Darmsadt tho TO-
male attendants who casLea and clothed the body
observed on ii neither arms nor head; another wit
ness saw one arm and head the size of IL mans
