Late advices from Utah state that the
assemblage of the Grand Jury of the First
United States District Court, under Chief
Justice Mexican, has occasioned an unisu-
al excitement in all classes of the comnu-
nifty in Utah. Among the Mormons there
is a decided display of spirit, which, if ar
ried out, must result in bloodshed.
1t is generally understood that Brigham
Young and other prominent Mormon
leaders have been indicted, but there isno
public acknowledgements of the facts. The
popular feeling on the part of the Momns
seems to drift in favor of an armed resist
ance to the writs of the court. think that
the leaders can never contemplate such an
issue, but the people certainly boldly talk
of resorting to an appeal to arms against
what they call the persecution of the feder-
al officials, which is simply the enforce
ment Of the laws. They have been Won
derfully encouraged by the purchase of a
large quantity of arms and ammunition at
auction at Camp Douglas from Colonel De
Trobriand, who seemed to have little
knowledge of the situation here.
Everybody seems to have a Springfield
musket and 150 rounds of ammunition, cost
ing less than three dollars each. The en-
tire community is bellicose, and, ifnot well
controlled, dangerous. The entire situa-
ton is feverish, and the final result,
whether for war or peace, depends greatly
on the Grand Jury.
Colonel De Trobriand's action has great
ly complicated affairs. IF good, square
common sense controls matters, there
will be no disturbance of the peace, but
otherwise there is chance for very Sc
rious row. dEtE .aAt 4t4a-g -. 10

is expecting and is ready for an arrest. and

Sunday In New Orleans.

1 was surprised at the appearance of the
streets. Half the business houses and all
the saloons were open. The day seemed
to be consecrated to drinking and amuse-
ment. In the general appearance of things
/ could see no difference between Sunday
and any otherd day, except that there seems
to be more grayety on the Sabbath. l saw
no people going to church, either singly or
in crowds. The street cars were full, con-
veying people to the fair grounds and to
the great base ball match which came off
to-day. Presently procession of little
children came filing past, headed by a brass
band. They were going to the fair
grounds. Then another procession and
another band of music, playing the live
liest tunes, marched past on their way to
the base ball grounds. In an hour four
different professions and bands of music
had passed. all seeking places of amuse-
ment in body.
"This is a gay city," L remarked to a
friend .-,..,

Of interest to Farmers.

In Great Britain and Ireland the wealth
lest and most independent of farmers are
those who occupy large farms of good grass
land, and who fatten and sell annually
large numbers of cattle. This class of
farmers are called graziers. They keep
very little of the land in tillage, do not
winter large numbers of cattle, but buy
two or three year old heifers and steers in
the spring, keep them ON choice pasture
during the summer and autumn, and sell
them before the animals begin to lose flesh
late in the fall. The vast herds of Texan cat-
tie are sometimes managed in similar
way, being purchased when in low condi-
tion, and driven on the rancho and succu-
lent prarie grass until they have become
nearly fat. Farmers who have good grass
land should devote at least portion of it
to fattening stock |; good two or three year.
old heifers and steers, kept on rich pasture
for six months, would probably pay better
than inferior tillage. The money would
Jail come together, and the cost of trans
|portation, compared with that of cereals,
would be trif1ing. Every farmer should
fatten all his young stock that are not re-
|quired for the dairy or yoke. Selling stock
of any kind before they are properly made
|up for the market is very bad management
and great deal of money is lost by farm
ers every year in this way. HGRw .F r.

FEEDING HoGs.-Begin early to feed
hogs for pork. We are apt to delay too

too far into the cold weather, when it takes
much larger quantity of food to make
the same quantity of flesh and fat. When
the atmosphere becomes cold, the carbon

an extra consumption is required to serve
both purposes. Hence the necessity, also,

them, if practicable, be shut up and fed

"a sToCKHoLDERn of the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad is writing up III. ID.
Newcomb, President of the Company, with
sharp pen. The following is from one of
his communications to the Courier "Why
has the stock Of the road been so depressed
for the last year-down to seventy-two and
seventy-three-wh it shows on the books
of the company to be worth 122 and over
Because the stockholders money has been
squandered by incompetency and the want
of practical common sense. Some time in
June or July last, the Louisville and Nash
vile road purchased the Ohio and Mem
phis road. To meet this and other ex-
penses the Louisville and Nashville road
issued it bonds for three and a half mill
ion dollars, bearing seven Cd per cent. in
terest, gold, meTtgaging the Ohio and
Memphis road and pledging its own re-
sources on the face of said bonds. Mr..
Newcomb, the President of the road at
that time, was about to start on a pleasure
trip and bridal tour to Europe. He thought
it would prove a good opportunity to be
sent there by the Company and according
ly announced that he would go over to ne
gotiate the sale of these three and a half
million bonds and to purchase iron. Now
mark the brilliant success of his mission.
He starts off before the bonds are prepar-
ed, arrives in England, and waits there
until they are sent to him. When those
bonds reach England tits found that they
are made payable at an obscure brokers'
office, who is friend of Mr.. Newcomb
and his New York bankers. The parties
with whom he has been negotiating there
upon decline to purchase the bonds because
they are not made payable at proper
place, and for other informalities; SO they
all have to be shipped back to this city.
Immediately all the directors here are in a
big stew and awfully troubled what to do
about this blunder. But at last they get
new bonds issued and prepared, mortgaged
and numbered as before, made payable in
England, and these the Trustees take on to
New York and send over to Mr.. Newcomb
in England, who sells them at price that
realizes in New York ninety7one (9T cents
on the dollar in greenbacks. Think of
that, ninety-one cents for seven pei. cent.
bonds, principal and interest payable in
gold! 1t is safe to say that he has lost the
stockholders at least six hundred thousand
dollars in negotiating bonds" &c. .rf
