TIE EIGHT Hour SYSTEM. II. G..
Hobart has introduced into the Assembly, a
bill fixing the days work for minors and
for men, when no other agreement is made,
at eight hours We do not doubt but that
the bill will pass. The great majority OF
working men want the experiment of such
a law tried, and no class objects to the trial.
Gen. Hobart's prompt action in introducing
this bill is commendable.

GENTILEs TO LEAVE SALT LAKE Cry.
A Leavenworth dispatch of the Sd says
that advices from Salt Lake to December
% state that twenty three Gentle business
firms have expressed their willingness t.
leave the territory, provided they receive
cost on outstanding accounts against the
Mormons, and that Brigham Young pays
them seventy-fve per cent, of the cost value
of their property in the territory The
Genties have been forced to take this course
owing to late instructions from Brigham,
warning the faithful to have no dealings
with them If this statement is true and
the proposition is accepted, it will give the
territory exclusively to the Mormons.

MORE TREASON. Radicals have
found new species of treason. They say
the President has no right to have policy
at all-that the ''very fact of his having a
policy at all is an act of usurpation and
treason" 1t is true, the Constitution re-
quires Kim to have policy it is his duty
to recommend measures to Congress; in
other words, to have policy and recon-
mend it. But what of that? Fidelity to
the Constitution is treason to the Radical
minds, and of course President johnson is
guilty of usurpation and treason in doing
what that instrument says he must do! Il
he would submit to the dictation of Rumr
Congress, acknowledge their authority and
employ their tools, they would call him the
Government, and vilify every man who op
poses his policy.
