FROM ACROSS THE BAsIN.-During the past few
Gays we were favored with calls from Hon. H. A. Mat
tox' OF Piacerve. and Mr.. p. ]. Moore, Of Center
ve' who report times lively in their respective Sec
uons. From Mr.. Mattox we learn that mining opera
tions are in full blast at Granite Greek and around
Piacervile aud that idle men are to be found in
those TWO camps. AL the bitches in that section Of
the country are running n, their full capacity; and
win an abundance OF water cool nights and pleasant
days. the miners are rushing work and feel confident
OF splendid mining season. Mr.. Moore informs us
that there Ia considerable work being done around
Centerville; but from all we can learn the price
charged for water in that camp is too high. There
IL an immense extent Of mining ground both above
and below Centerville that would pay fair wages If
water could be procured at reasonable rates. but at
two bits and forty cents per inch the ground won't
pay for working, as it takes about all the miner can
realize from his ground to pay for the water
~ to work It. The ditch companies standing In

exorbitant rates Miners cannot afford to work out

May 18th, 1879.
FRIEND WR-GGL EswoRTH: - According
to promise, write you few lines from
this place. After iourneving for five days,
on the Chicago, North Western and Union
Pacific X. T., we found ourselves in the
wonderful City Of Salt Lake, the City
of the Mormons. No sooner were we
Invested Of the dust Of travel, than we
sauntercd forth to see the sights went
to the Theatre. The play, music and all
were good; while there we saw dozen
of -Brigham's daughters, all about the
same age, and about the same number Of
ms sons The thing seemed somewhat
strange to Us Gen'ilcs The day following
we went TO the Tabernacle, which is g
large building, capable Of seating To-,
900 people. The organ is made from
Utah wood, and is As feet in height and
IS feet in width, taking four men to work
the bellows.
We also went to visit the great Temple,
which has been in process of building
fer the past six years, and when finished
will be an imposing and beautiful struc-.
ture. The general opinion however rs, that
the Mormons will never finish this temple :
that their days at Salt Lake City are
numbered that ere long they viii make
another move and go further west.
Sunday the 18th, while on our way
from the City to the mining camp, we
fell i'll with Brigham's "Chief destroying
Angle" "Bill IIicI m n" and after o k
ing him over understanding him, did not
feel any surprised to learn that he had
killed from Is to 90 men.
Wearrived in camp on Tuesday the 18th,
and like the looks of the place think in
time this will make a lively camp. though, /
at present it is very dull, on account ofiI
there not being capital sufficient to develop
the mines but it is hoped that capital
lists will see that it is to their advantage
to invest. They would undoubtedly be
we'll paid for the investment.
The minerals raised are gold, silver and
copper. Almost every ''load" in the dis Il
trict has these three minerals.

To the Memory of Francis Roach
DiedsMaY Sd, 1873, Aged So Years.

Bury the old man tenderly
Silently lay him to rest;
And place the clUd of the valley
So lightly upon that breast;
He toileG sp lifa's weary mountain,
To its summit, cold and grey,
Where the shades of tito gathering twilight
But herald the cofilhg day.
He faced the conflict btavely';
He fell not amid the strife.
But bearing his arms at 'tlie close of day,
Went hone from the battle of lille.
Went home at the hour of evening,
Aild to lear the father say:
To him that faltered hot to the end
There waiteth a crown to-day"
lie sought not vain earth's honorsy
No ruler his name could tell;
But the father above-and the angels,
All, they knew him very WE'LL
And what of the pomp and the splendor,
The grandeur, the power there SHOWN,
Wien they heard his step on tltepavemert,
And knew he was coming homie.
Did they meet him there at the gateway,
Who parted with signs and tears2
whose graves are hid by the fallen grass,
That has grown for many year?
Did they know the time worn veteran?
did they warmly grasp his hand?
Did the carth's love blend with the ptrer
love?
All, mo-could we understand!
We Will bury the old man tenderly;
We will lay hfh down to rest,
When the weary sullbeams tint the skies,
Ere they sink TO the golden west.
We will bring he sweet May flowers,
Aud silently place them there.
On his withered hands, that arc folded now,
For the old mans heart was fair.
