one of the hardest hail storms We recollect
of witnessing. The hail fell in chunks as
large as hens eggs. perfectly covered the
ground, and doing considerable damage by
breaking glass. The wind was high, and
carried store boxes. plank and other nneya-
bic materials considerable distance. There
were one hundred and forty panes of glass
broken on the south side of the Chase House.
The storm came from the southeast, break

of the houses. In fifteen minutes after the
storm, Jake Smith, the hardware merchant.

Pro-SiaVery Democratic Pacific Rail-
road Ronfa =

road Route. Ezsss
There is a high barren tract of table land
in Northern New Mexico, where neither
..egrass grows nor water runs" where the
dry sand affords no Entertainment for man
or beast" where Indians starve, emigrants
die of thirst, and not even woodchuck
can get living. The Spaniards call it the
"Lianos Estacados," which We translate
s'Staked Plains 1870.
Across this desert Southern politicians
have set their hearts upon running rail-
road to the Pacific. With customary obe-
dience to their orders, the Administration
have been trying to lay 1t out for them
But they have hard time OF It.
The frst difficulty they encountered was,
that the Staked Plains were about tbous-
and feet higher than the top of the Catskill
Mountains. But this they persuaded them
selves could be overcome by long curve
here, and steep grade there, with, if need
be, anoecssional inclined plane or tunnel.
So hey got up TO the top.
The next serious difficulty was, that
there was No wood, either for building or
burning. But this they surmeunted by re-
solving upon imported Woodpiies, regardless
Of expense.
The next difficulty was worse yet. There
was not drop Of water to be had for love
or money. sNeyef mind" :" said the eAd-
ministration, owe viii have artesian wells.
Let us BORE Bore they did. They bor-
ed two hundred feet, but they found no wa
ter. They bored four hundred feet, but no
water. They bored six hundred feet, but
still no water. They bored eight hundred ct,
and until their augur wouldn't bore any
further, and the artesian well remained as
dry as chip They are coming home
now, bringing tbe,augur along. They have
gained wisdom, but no water. ,rfc..I
As nothing that the South demands must
be left undone, the road must of course be
made. But how? The Administration
will now have to consider this point. The
substitution Of camels for locomotives has
been suggested. Portable waller casks,
such as are used on shipboard, are also
suggested. Water thus obtained would Rot
cost more than dollar pint, and the Ad-
ministration, tits Helb Known, does not
stick at expenses, especially when Demo
cratic contractors are to pocket it.
But all this trouble, be it remembered, is
taken to escape from short, cheap, level.
easy route through fertile fields, running
streams and thrifty forests. against which
the sole objection is that it happens to lie

The Restoration of Douglas to the
Democratic Party.

The Washington correspondent of the
New York Courier and Enquirer saws -
Negotiations are understood to be in pro-
gress for the restoration of Douglas to the
Democratic party in regular form. The
condition which the Douglas party insist
upon is that the other division shall cease
to denounce popular sovereignty as to slave
ry in the Territories, and shall oppose the
principle no furlheRtban to crush it out by
executive interference. by the federal pat
ronage, by courts and mobs, and finally by
the army in case where all others fail. The
compromise will probably be adopted with l.
out prejudice to the great object of the uni
versal expansion of slavery, for after all,
this question will be settled not by what is
said, but by what is done, while using all
the powers of the Government to introduce
slavery into Territory or State. it is per-
fectly easy for the Democracy to avow an
intense devotion to the will and sovereignty
of the people. Bargain to be made in these
plain and practical terms will reinstate Mr..
Douglas as a candidate before the Charles
ton Convention.

GA Gentle resident of Frogtown, short
time ago, went over to Provo after young
woman, who, it seems, had taken fancy to
him, and who wished to leave Provo and
come and live in Frogtown with her Gentle
admirer. But mob collected around the
house where she and her lover were, and he
was advised that he would find it conducive
to his health to leave Immediately, which he
did. The young ,sonaan aoas then taken out
and publicly achipped.' .zsst .ss--ts
The Governor and his army, we presume,
are in Utah for the express purpose of pro-
tecting the Mormons in regulating their do
nestle institutions in their own way-al-
though women are publicly aOhipped We
trust that particular creed of the Mormons
that woman shall not choose a Gentle
in preference to one of the Saints-will be

card from Mr.. Whittlesy, announcing that
he has bought the establishment, and order
ed Hoe Press, and other new material, to
re6t and renew the Office. Mr.. Hall, in
speaking of his past course, says;
ave have mentioned our friends-we feel
confident we have made many, and at the

have made many enemies. Our friends have
been warm and generous; our enemies Bit

To the former we have given sweet for

Of the press, we tender our heartfelt thanks
to those friends who have stood by US
through storm as well as sunshine, and as
sure them of our future Interchangeable re-
