Cur THE BUshEs.-Now is the time, the
shortest days Of winter, to cut the bushes in
the pastures and along the meadows and
fences, wherever you wish to cut and get rid
of them. Alders, birches, etc cut during
the shortest days, are, as nearly every prac-
teal farmer knows, killed out, that is they
sprout up in spring great deal less than
when cut at other seasons.
A few days spent now, if this is the case,
will be worth more than at any other season
of the year. But if you have wood lots that
YOU wish to cut over and then to leave to
grow up again, you had better let them stand
a few weeks longer.

General Hazen has addressed letter
from Jefferson Barracks to Representa-

port OF his observations upon affairs in
Utah, while there in October last. He
says: 81 think it important that the
Government should in some way
strengthen its authority in that Terri
tory, and at the same time increase, by
whatever means possible, our friendly
relations with those people, and elevate
their intelligence till they come to feel
that they are a part of the United
States, and that We are their friends.
Harsh measures will only the more
strongly consolidate them. The lands
of the Territory are still held by the
Government. If it is the intention to

can do less, land office should be
opened there, and a committee appoint

NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-The Tribune's
special says The judiciary Commit

return to rebels of confiscated property,
shows that in Louisiana alone, proper
ty valued at five hundred millions had
been returned to rebels by order of the
President. All our Generals have fire.
quently decided that this property be-
longed to the Government as much as
any could. The facts connected with
the recovery by the rebels of all this
kind of property in all the States of the
South, will startle the public. They
cannot only be shown from the records
of the bureau in Louisiana, but from
those of the bureaus in all the Southern
States.
The Times special says: Edward
Cooper, of the Select Committee to in
Quire into the murder of Union soldiers
in South Carolina, has submitted mi
nority report, in which he admits that
the soldiers were unquestionably de-
Hberately murdered, but claims that it
is not proved beyond reasonable doubt
that the discharged prisoners were
guilty OF the crime. He then proceeds,
at length, to sustain the official action
which finally eliminated in the release
of the prisoners under the habeas cor
pus. He also disagrees with the Com
mittee as to the necessity for military
rule in the South to maintain order.

Grape yesterday vetoed the Port HUI
ron and Lansing Railroad bill, on the
ground OF the unconstitutionality and
inexpediency. The bill allows 10 per
cent on the assessed valuation to
be given to the road by all the
townships in any county traversed by
the road. The Governor says the svs-
tenn will create Z flood OF bonds which
the capitalists cannot take, and the
issuers cannot pay, :and the credit of
Michigan, forced to go begging, will
stand low in the market; emigrants
will be slow to come into communities
thus bankrupting themselves, and the
magnificent schemes which promise
wealth will work miserable ruin. The
veto was made the special order for
Thursday morning.
