STREET LoCoMoTyE.-Mr. Latta, of Cincinnati &1
nous as the inventor of the steam fire engine has COZ
rived locomotive for street passenger railways which
upon trial, has proved q complete success. The Gin
cinnati Commercial thus speaks of it:
The engine and car attached, and away we went
with an easy and pleasant notion which delighted every
passenger. At Fifth and Vine and several other PLACES
on the route, carriages met and passed. and not
single horse evnced the least symptom of alarm CT fear
for there was nothing to alright them. We mention
this the more particularly, as many have conceived it
impossible to build street engine which will not sarh
horses. feature worthy OF high commentator, is tp
absence OF noise the quetness with which the ocomo
tive was surprising The noise is not greater than
car moved by horses The engineer possesses the most
perfect control of the machine stopping and starting with
promptness which delighted US Surprising it may
SEEM is nevertheless that the cars stop much more
nsantananeousy than they do when horses are attached
No difficulty was experienced in turning curves

THOSE BROADWAY BELLIES.
AIR-Those Epeniy1g Bells.

Those Broadway helles, those Broadway bellies,
How sweet tale nay memry tells

When bonnets small were in their prime.
But all those hats have passed away,
And women now are most o,ttTe,
Each bonnet now preposterous swes,
And hides the pretty Broadway bellies.

How THEY HOLD CoURT IN UTAH.-Indian Agent
Humphrey, who has some fifteen thousand Indians under
his in tab sixty miles from Salt Lake City,
thus describes, in letter friend IN Lafyette the n
posing opening Of u. s. Court by our government Of
fcialS
The most imposing scene L have witnessed since my
arrival here was the opening of the United States
Court by Nephi, by his Honor, Chief Justice Eckles.
Just imagine you him ascending the judicial rostrum
with his usual amount of dignity with large Colts
vover hung to his side, and take his seat Then the
Marshal P. K. Dalson long, dark compexioned Vir-
ginan arose. with two revoVers swung to his sde and
calls Court in the usual FORM Hear ye ye! do
Then John E. Risely, good looking young man, form
erly of Sullivan county-Cerk OF the Court arises
ed in the style and reads the minutes The Court
then calls the list of Attorneys each OF whom armed
before stated arise and to his name. The jury
then called every one OF whom comes IN with his re-
vover swinging to his side, and in THIS condition they
are sent to their room.
After all this their Court is perfect farce and their
trials but mockerey of justice The fault, however, is
not in officers of the Court they faithful and fearless
in the discharge of their duties But the difficulty re-
ssts here the Jurors the criminals and witnesses all
Mormons-and for this reason is impossible to enforce
the law The truth is Brigham 7 Dung S word is law,
and it is nonsense to undertake to do anything to the
contrary.
ANECDoTE-When John Brown, D. d., first settled
in Haddingston, the people OF his parish gave him
warm and enthusiastic reception only OF the men,
bers of that large church and congregation stood out IN
opposition him. The Rev. Doctor tried all the means
in his power to the solitary dssenter to the uni
ty of feeling which pervaded the whole body but all his
efforts OBTAIN interview proved abOrtve AS Pro-
violence directed however, they happened one cay to
meet in the street. when the Doctor held out his hand
saying, My brother understood you opposed to
my settling IN Haddington.
Yes, sr, replied the parshoner.
"Well, and ii it be fair question: on what grounds
do Won object me 7"
9 Because, sir" quoth he, Il don't think you are
qualified to fill SO eminent post"
That is just my opinion replied the Doctor but
