on the judiciary to inquire into the pro-

the right to testify in the courts of Ken

Caleb Cushing reached Washington,
Sunday morning. with the Darien
Canal treaty that he has just negotiated.
It gives the United States the right to
construct canal across the 1sthmus,
and secures US in its use for a term OF
years. The clerks of the State Depart
ment were engaged, Monday in copying
the various documents, and they will
propably soon be laid before the Sen
ate.
A Paris letter says that Santa Anna is
at the head of an enterprise, the object
Of which is to place European mon
arch on the Mexican throne. General
Toboada, Military Director of the expe-
dition, has received from the Provision
al Government of Spain permission to
carry out with him three hundred Span.
| ish officers. The French, Austrian and
! English Governments are reported as
subscribing twenty millions of dollars
for the success of Santa Anna and his
enterprise.
The House Committee Oh Revision Of
the Laws have agreed OIL bill .elative
to naturalization which they will report
as soon as possible. 1t provides that
hereafter all naturalization shall be done
| in United States Courts; that Registers
in Bankruptcy may take evidence, but
shall not issue certificates; that all appli-
cants for naturalization must give no.
tice beforehand of their intention; that
any citizen may appear before a Court
and state his objections to the naturali
zatlon Of an applicants; that certificates
of naturalization may be issued at the
end of four years and six months resi-
! dcpce, butcannot be used till six months
thereafter. The purpose of the bill, 1t
! will be seen, is to make naturalization
a judicial process.
The President of the United States.
! by the terms of a protocol signed III Lis.
! bon, on the 10Th of last month, was
! made arbitrator in n controversy between
! Portugal and Great Britain. The mat
ter in dispute is the title to an island
! of the western coast Of Africa. at the
mouth of the Rio Graple river. 1t APP
pears that the British and Portuguese
have settlements on the adjoining coast,
and that Portugal has, for a long time,
claimed this island of BAHAMA. The
English are, however, now in possession.
The President, on Friday last, signilied
his acceptance of his appointment as
arbitrator. Diplomatic circles here
regard the offer of England to leave the
/ point in issue to the United States as an
/ evidence of her desire to cultivate
/ friendly relations with this country,
and to help in the settlement OF the Ala
! hama claims.

according to improvements. Even un'
improved land Is from $40 to $50 pei
acre; and Mormons won't sell it to a
Gentle even for that price.
AS to town lots in their towns, they
will not sell them to a gentle for any
price. 1t is no place for agcntile to look
after land. Their only chance is to get
lots of the Railroad Company in the
towns that they lay off. There will be
some, or at least one big town, that will
be a city of great size. This will be the
head of gentileism in this valley.
All Mormon towns are laid out with
streets 120 feet wide, running ut right
angles. The lots are large, from quar-
ter to half an acre, filled with peach and
apple trees and vines. From Brigham
City south to Salt Lake city is "A miles.
This Is a splendid country. The Wa
satch range walls it on the East. The
valley is from 3 to 30 miles wide from
the mountains to The lake. Then comes
the lake, pretty sheet of blue water,
filed with Islands that rise up like
mountains. Withal, the scenery is pic
turesque, and the climate is mild and
salubrious. 1t is pretty place to live
in, healthy and agreeable but nothing
here to support a people except the rail
road and what the Mormons have; and
what they have got they ought to keep,
for they have worked hard for it. Tim
Der is scarce-in fact, none at all. Ium-
refused for load of pine wood. Coal is
only s. per ton here, and good coal at
that. There is plenty Of good coal here.
Corn is 10 cts. per pound on the cob, and
hay 500 per ton.
All the settled portions of the valley
are well supplied with school houses and
churches, (Mormonl, as much so as any
portion of Iowa. Hero aud there are
fine large grist mills and wooden mills,
and south Of Salt Lake city are cotton
mills. The people work hard, live on
little, endure everything, suffer every
thing, all for their religion. They are
Jealous and infatuated and will suffer
anything for their religion ortheir lead
ers. Next week l will write of the Grea,
City, its people and their religion.
Yours, WELLS SpICER.
