Various theories have Decn advanced
to dispose Of Mormonism but as none
Of them have seemed practicable, til,
matter rom time to time has been
dropped. 1t is now proposed to con,
solidatc Utah with Nevada, thus giving
the governing power Of Utah into other
hands. Ii is said by this union there
will be enough Gcntilos to divide
church AND state, leaving the Mormons
in the minority This might be the re-
suit, but instead of>oUsolidating Utah
with another territory it appears to be
the opinion Of many that if four ter,
ritoIies were made Of these two il
would be still better; they are now
fully large for one government.

the "Cambria," owned by Mr.. F. Gilman,
one of the employees of the Illinois Gen.

valuable aid, whilst for designs and much
assistance in rigging, the owners of
the new boat acknowledge their OBJ.
legations to Fred. r. Kent, Esq, the

complete victory for the new boat, COM

well-known nautical ability in his manage
ment, and twithstanding the gallant and
unceasing efforts of the Cambria and her
owner, the new boat won bet of $l75
Tor Mr.. Baber! Mr.. Frank Hundley
backed the Cambria for the Same amount.
Some of our citizens, who by the courtesy
of the owners, participated in the sport,
hugely enjoyed themselves.

The proportion of and in California
under cultivation, compared with the en-

Land Office figures, there are G00C0,OOO

100000 are cultivated. Of this, accord
ing to the super visor General, 1,263,OO0
were in wheat, giving 1900, 600 bushels,

eorder says it follows that If, by means of

The Registrar Generals returns of the
marriages regis cred in Ireland during $40
discloses some curious facts. Nearly one.
half of the Roman Catholic marriages reg
istered during the year took place within
the first three months of that period. The
total number was 20,6i7, Of which 1007s
took place during the first three months
The number of Protestant marriages reg
istered during the year was s,2lS, the
number registered during each quarter
varying very little. The Roman Catholic
marriages were equal to one IN every 2O2
of the estimated Roman Catholic popula
ton, while the Protestant marriages
amounted to one in every 153 OF the esti
mated Protestant popul ton. The Regis.
trar General estimates that, after allowing
for emigration, there has ben an increase
of the population to the extent OF 3,772
during the first three months of the pres
ent year.
