SMALL PoX.-As we predicted some
time age, this fearful and loathsome disease
has broken out In our Territory and st any
moment may appear II our midst. Messrs.
PaTchen & Paynter last night received two
applications from Deer Lodge for vaccine
matter, one of which came from DR.. CrepID,
who stated that the disease had appeared in
Deer Lodge, also about twenty miles above
Deer Lodge. DR.. Click also received an ap-
plication for the vaccine. We do not wish
10 unnecessarily alarm our citiEens or create
a tendency to indulge In morbid apprehen-
sions CT gloomy fears, but we would most
candidly say, that if it is In Deer Lodge, and
we doubt not but that il is, it will be but
few days at the farthest before il will break
out beside our own fresides and among our
own citizens. No system of diet or course
of hygienic discipline can prevent it or stay
It's insIdious influence and loathsome touch.
The only known prevention isbyths operation
of vaccination. This properly performed and
thoroughly effected there is little danger of
being subjected to the disease. We announce
the pIeEentIon, the application rests with those
who are interested. We would most earnestly
suggest that il is the duty Of each and every
citizen to be vaccinated and see that his fam
lily are, and by this preventive operation, re-
moved beyond the influence of the disease.
We are requested to state that Dr. Shoue will
vaccinate any and all who apply to him at
Parchen & Paynter's, free of charge. We
this fearful plague that has swept in its desc
lating course over the Pacific States, bat we
cannot hope it, and our duty a wise people
IS to prepare to meet Its coming.
CoRINNE.-The sale of town lots in
this new railroad town commenced yesterday
and continued all day. The lots were sold
az prices ranging from $500 to $500. The
sale so far has been confined to lots lying
south of the railroad track. The town having
been laid out into lots the railroad
company sold every other one, the alternate
one being reserved TO the owner of the land
upon which the town was located. The bid
ding was very lively, the sale being attended
by all the Salt Lake merchants, particularly
those who have been tabooed by reason of be-
ing Gentiles. A large number of buildings
are already In process of construction. The
principal business street has been named Mon
rama Those who are at all acquainted with
the business interests and prospects of that
point and understand the relations il will sus-
tain to the large towns and cities Of the Ter
ritories, state that il will be sf the largest
cities In the mountains, and viii rival Salt
Lake In business Importance 1t will be bat
a short time before immense stocks of goods
will be IN transit for IL, and then,
when once peopled witha thorough snergetic,
and enterprising class of business men, good
bye to Salt Lake, her monopolies and her
business restrictions and commercial gags.
This new town lies Eve miles from Brigham
City, In a beautiful section OF country, and
highly adapted TO the location of one of the
most expansive cities in the West
ANOTHER PROMISING LoDE.-We re-
caived the pleasure of a call from Mr.. j. Il.
Buxton of Red Mountain City, who informed
rs of the Developments upon a silver lode
which promises TO be celebrated for its rich

IN width extends the entire length of the
lode, and is uniform in width az the depth in
