AT last dates from Utah Brigham Young
was advising the Saints to lido their own
manufacturing" so as to be Independent
hereafter of both North and South. Apos-
tie George Smith concurred with Brigham.
He said he was ready to secede from the
Secessionists; he was Indifferent to broad
cloth, and had no particular itching after
the gingerbread filings of the Gentiles,
either for himself, his wives or his babies /;
what they could not make they could do
without. He was strong on the capacities
of the Territory, aud on the skill of their
citizens. Brigham went in for the Consti-
tuition and the Union generally, from
which we infer that "secesh" may as well
give up whatever 'great expectations" it
has ever INDUCED of ringing in the Latter
Day Saints to the support of JEFF. Davis.
