UTAH.

SALT LAKE CRY, July S.-Hon. Geo.
C. Bates, United States District Attor.
ney for Utah, has drawn grand jury
of Mormous and Gentiles, returnable
July l3, with view to present indict-
ments, it is understood, against several
prominent Mormons for violation OF
the law of 1862 against polygamy. By
these proceedings, which are sanctioned
by the Attorney General Of the United
States in connection with the law de-
partment of the Government, it is ex-
pected these cases will be brought up
for final decision in the Supreme Court
OF the United States at its next ses'
sion.
In the meantime there is every rea-
son to believe that there will be no dis
turbance in Utah at present. The
utmost quiet prevails here both among
the Mormons and Gentiles. All are
alike submissive to the laws and the
territory is in condition of absolute
peace.
The mines Of silver, gold, copper and
coal, in extent and richness, are being
speedily developed. The population Of
the territory is very rapidly increasing.
These are the legitimate results OF the
decision of the Supreme Court Of the
United States last winter.

A Serious ARRAY.

On Tuesday night last 8 difficulty
occurred in this place between two
colored women, which will in all prob
ability terminate seriously with one OF
the parties. II seems that some OF our
colored friends were holdings fair in
the old Masonic building for the pur-
pose OF raising funds to improve the
graveyard used for the colored people
The proceedings were progressing peace
ably and satisfactorily to all. when q
woman named Susan Holland made
a sudden assault upon Jane Bush. an
unmarried woman. The result OF the
matter was, that Miss Bush threw 3
lamp against the face Of her assailant,
striking her just above the eyes, the
force being such as TO. cut through to
the bone, and exploding the burning
