Shoulder, he levelled a rowdy at every

his sssailGnts and again turning suddenly
upon his Pursuers with q well directed
blow laid the foremost spraEling in the
street. In this way he kept up running
tight until he reached the door Of the In
st1tute, when o score or more policemen
rushed from the Hall and pursued the as
ssssins who fed like sheep. One of their
number bswled Justify for mercy when he
was caught, but he got good clubbing and

very extensive, and built in the most sub
stantisl manner. Two wings to the main
building are now well under way. They
are four hundred feet in length each, by
one hundred wide, and one story high.
The main building is in the same proper
ton, and will be run up higher. I could
not get the full proportions Jas to the di-
mensions, but the whole is to be on extern
sive scale. There are to be shops for work
ing in iron, shops for working in wood,
paint shops, finishing shops, stove houses,
round houses for engines and cars, and the
whole will cover thirteen acres Of land
Hundreds Of workmen will be employed in
them, Of higher and lower grades of skill
and many hundreds Of Inhabitants will be
added to the village.
Other manufacturers will come In, and
ere many years, Franklin will have grown
and expanded into city, were labor will
be respected, learning encouraged, snd
where the arts and sciences will flourish.

IL Innoration b 90.

Brigham Young has up to this time
jealously kept his Mormons from hunting
after the precious metals which ara be-
lieVed to abound in the mountains Of
Utah. But the time has now come when
1t is no longer in his power to prevent min
ing there. Evidence Of this appears in 3
circular from the Headquarters Of the Dis
trict Of Utah, signed by OrderOf Brigsdier
General Cenner.
In this circular, which is dated Novem-
Der 18th, the belief is expressed that the
country is rich in minerals; and it is
stated that for opening it to " new, hardy
industrious population" the search for
minerals should be not only unshaekled
but fostered. The circular announces that
prOspecters and miners will be protected,
when necessary, by the military; and di-
reefs that soldiers at the several points
shall, whenever convenient be pernitted
to prospect for mineral. The document
deals in such gsneralitiss as that these
mountains are the property Of the nation,
whese policy it hiss ever been to extend
the brOadest privileges to her citizens,
and to invite them to seek, find and enjoy
the riches of its domain. Commanders Of
posts, ETC., are ordered to afford every fa-
cility for carrying out the objects of this
circular, and to report from time to time
what progress has been made in developing
the mineral wealth Of that country.
