Farmers, at least those who have
money to pay, had better agree to sell
at fair rates than to keep their crops
on hand in hopes of getting better
prices. If they can do we'll by an
early sale, that will be found to be a
much more advisable plan than to hold
on in hopes of doing better. Buyers
and sellers-merchants and their debt,
should come together as soon as
possible and agree to live and let
live" and in this way the financial
condition of the country will be great
" improved.

Last ncccmbcr an officer in the Gle.

gallopnd along one Of the most
crowded and fashionable streets in
st. Petersburg. Passing Il m0gasln

grace, and the freshness and tender
ness which distinguished her On her
retiring, he learnt that she was the
daughter Of poor din@~id, civil

her at q low rate from admiration OF
her youth and character, and that she
would return at six.

The Morm0nS---What is TO be Done :?

Mr.. Buchanan has been very gen
orally censured for consenting to make
peace with Brigham Young in 1858,
without requiring his punishment for
one of the thousand crimes with which
he stood charged. The weakness of
the President in that matter-if il did
not at that time appear clear to every
body--is likely to be manifested soon,
as late advices from Utah represent
the " Saints" as being disposed to re-
bellon. This is precisely what might
have been expected. When the army
was on its way to Utah, Brigham was
loud in his boastings that he could
whip the army that had been sent out
to subdue lin, and further than that,
he declared his intention to make
the President of the United States his
boot black But as the army drew
near, he professcd great humility, and
by his artfulness drew Mr. Buchanans
Commissioner into sort OF treaty
of peace, the terms Of which were
such as to humble the people of the
United States more than the author OF
scores of murders who dictated its
conditions. Hence, there was mean
ing in his boastings, and that mean
ing may soon find solution, written
in blood.
A correspondent Of the Tribune
writing from Camp Floyd under date
Of June 30, says
That since the return OF Judge
Eckels, there has been a full and free
interchange Of views among the Fed
eral officers as to the mode and the
manner Of enforcing the laws OF the
land upon that stif1:necked and rebel
Iious people" At the date of his let
ter there were forty warrants agalns
the inhabitants of the Territory in the
hands Of the United States Marshal
chargin them with capital crimes
others, again, the perpetrators OF thu
wholesale slaughter OF over hun
dred men, women and children, at the
Mountain Meadows, in the southern

MORE PEAcEFUL.-The British Lion,
after having been in very restless
and uncomfortable state for many
weeks, is now wagging his royal tail
very comfortably, his uncasiness hav,
ing been removed at last by positive
declaration of Louis Napoleon that lac
will at once reduce the army and navy
to peace footing. Napoleon bad
previously assured the Lion that he
had no intention of landing on the
shores of Albion to give him drub
bling on his own soil, but the Lior
would not take his word. He feared
that Napoleon might behave perfdi
ously, and, when his army was fully
rested from the fatigues of the cam.
paign in Italy, that he would find some
pretext for hostility to England. But
the disarmament promised has dissi.
pated all his fears and he is now quite
ecstatic.

Farmers, now is the time to make
preparations for the Fair. Remember
that it comes off on the 5th and 9th of
next month. Mr. butcher, the can
vasser for the Society, will call upon
you next week. Give him all the ell
enlargement you can. 1t is of great
interest to all that the exhibition be a
flattering success.
These Annual Fairs in every county
and state, are working an untold
amount of good, not by merely graft
flying the curiosity of the crowd who
attend, but by making the community
familiar with the improvements of thu
age, and more than all, in supplying
stimulus which incites everybody
to earnest and active effort after some
thing higher and better.
Every farmer and every mechani.
should aim to be on hand and bring
with him some specimen of his handi
work, or good success in raising fine
stock, grain, vegetables, &c.
