War and the General of the Army take
occasion to express their regret that in the
natural course of things the long continu-
ance of the most faithful devotion to duty
on the part of the officers concerned must

not necessary, coming, as it does, in this

of their choice.

UTAH TERRITORY.-Our old fellow
townsman and friend, Hon. S. A. Mann
now Acting Governor of Utah, in his re-
cent message to the Legislature mentions
two remarkable provisions in the laws OF
that Territory
The first is in law relating to attor-
neys," and is evidently intended to dis
courage the practice of the legal profess
sion in the Territory. threads as follows
mo person or persons employing counsel
in any of the courts of this Territory
shall be compelled by any process of law
to pay the counsel so employed for any
services rendered before or after or dur
ing the process of trial in the case" The
other act referred to provides "that no
law or parts of laws shall be made, ar
gued, cited, or adopted, in any court dur
ing the trial of any case, except those en-
acted by the Governor and Legislature of
this Territory and those passed by the
Congress of the United States when ap-
plicable, and no reports, decisions, or do
ings of any court shall be read, argued or
adopted as precedent in any other trial"
The Governor recommends, of course,
that both these provisions be repealed.
The last, he says, is nugatory, and "has
no effect but to create a sneer of derision." :"
He refers to the pending legislation in
Congress ON the subject of polygamy as
follows: "It is a fact well known, no less
to you than the entire community, that
the Congress of the United States is now
engaged in the discussion of measures de-
signed to work important changes in the
social condition of the people of this Ter
ritory. These matters, in default of
similar enactments by the Legislature of
Utah, have passed to the keeping of Con-
gress, which, under the Constitution, pos
sesses the absolute right to govern the
Territory as in its judgement it sees
proper, subject only to the Constitution
of the United States. Under these cir
cumstances I deem it neither nesessary
nor proper for me to further remark upon
questions which have already passed to
the National Legislature. [ therefore re-
frain from recommending any specific
measures relative to the topic referred to,
trusting in the wisdom and patriotism of
Congress to pass such laws as may be in
accordance with the interests of this peo-
pie and the spirit and genius of the age in
which we live"

honored while living, and who we mourn

TIGHT LACING.-The Chester CORES
pondent of the Middlebuary Register

of young lady in that town from the
effects of tight lacing: ...a.
The cause of the death proves the ter
rible hold accursed fashion has on the
ladies of our day, and among its victims
are the pure and the good. Tight lacing
killed the poor, foolish girl. To such a
fearful extent had this practice been in
dulged in, that the ribs were found Tapped
over one another, and the breast bone was
pressed over one lung so that she had en-
tirely lost its use. For several mon tbs
previous to her death, this one victim has
been obliged to sleep with corsets on and
frightened to the last notch, for the loosen
ing gave such pain in the internal expan-
sion that she could not bear it. This is
but one instance we have heard Of SINH
lar cases within short time. There is

A BRINDLE MONSTER WITH BUSH
TAIL RAMPAGINGiTo OHIO.

Some time ago we published an account
of some strange and ferocious animal
which had created panic among the
farmers in some parts of Page county,
Iowa. Mr.. Homer Aldrich, who has re-
Gently returned from visit to that
county informs us that the animal has
committed extensive depredations in the
neighborhood of the town of Buchanan,
killing some twenty or thirty head of
hogs and sheep in one night. 1t he's also
killed couple of horses and three cows
for farmer in the vicinity of Wild Cat
Grove, near which place the strange
beast has made his hiding place. At one
time a large number of the citizens of the
neighborhood armed themselves, and sur
rounded grove of timber in which the
animal was known to be. They tried for
some time to get one of the party to go
into the bush and drive him out, but none
could be found bold enough to undertake
the task. At length the whole party went
in and "beat the bush," whereupon the
monster coolly came out and walked off
without shot being fred at it. The fact
is the ferocious beast has inspired the peo-
pie of large section of the country with
a perfect terror and every one is afraid to
attack it, 1t is estimated that the farm
ers Of Page county have had two hundred
and fifty head of stock killed by it.
The animal has often been seen and is
described as being of dark brindle color,
with long, bushy tail, and in size is be-
tween panther and California lion.
Mr.. Aldrich saw some Of his tracks in the
snow which measured five inches across
1t is supposed to be a cougar which has
escaped from some menagerie. Several
parties have been in pursuit of the animal
without success. At last accounts it had
left the West Fork of 102 river, and was
supposed to be making its way to DeKalb
county. Mr.. Aldrich heard, on his way
down, of its depredations in Noadaway
county, some farmers having lost from
twenty to forty head of hogs and sheep in
. single night. s.slf ~ beasesta Dse

LUDLow.-At the meeting of Reform
Lodge, No. 81, I. o. of G.. T., on Saturday
evening, Feb. 9th, the following persons
were installed as officers for the ensuing
quarter:
w. @. II. w. Warner.
w. V. T.-Mrs A. L. Rogers
W. S.-Charles E. Smith.
W. f. S.-Miss Emma Garvin.
w. T.-Miss Emma CLARK.

w. o. G.-Abner Flanders.
w. r. S.-Miss Abbie Paige.
w. L. S.-Miss Noe Hammond.
P. W. G. TIE. L. Mack.
L. D.--N. M. Pierce.
The lodge is in very harmonious and
prosperous condition; is receiving access
sions to its memberships and is ready to
welcome many more. A large part of the
old Division of the Sons of Temperance,
for some years dormant, have become
members of this organization, and we are
informed that other prominent members
are soon to follow their example. Our
village has, for the last few years, suffered
less than most others from the ravages of
intemperance, but drunkenness is not un-
known even in our streets at mid day.
The old Sons of Temperance did some
good work many years ago in reforming
desperate cases. The Templars have thus
far mostly exercised conservative infu-
ence over the young, and have exerted
themselves more in maintaining healthy
public opinion on the subject than in en-
forcing the law. The result is that the
law has been enforced more by those who
did not claim to be temperance men than
by both organizations This is not said
by way of disparagement, but as Curl
GUS fact. We believe the Templars are
doing good work and heartily bid them
God speed.
Owing to the rapidly falling snow
we were unable to furnish Rev. Mr.. Mills,
on Tuesday evening, with such an audi
enee as his lecture deserved, but the num-
Der present in spite of the storm, testified
to the general satisfaction given by the
previous lecture. CALVIN.
