Mormons aud Indians at War.

Correspondence from Fort Defiance re-
ports the NavaiOS, and MormonS who live
near the Northwestern boundary, are at
war. The MOrnons have killed three or
four NavajOs, and the Indians are retali-
ating. Great fear is entertained for next
spring in this vicinity, as the Utes have
made o;ertures to the NavaiOs to Join
them in a war upon the miners and settlers
near Dolores and San Juan mines. The
Nayajos' chief, Mannetito, favOrs hostility,
but most of the NavaiOs have so far declined
to take any positive part.

THE London Times publishes a let
ter that pretty thoroughly disproYes
the .spauper labor" theory, so far as 1t
Is applied to England, and is at the
same time an incidental contribution
10 the discussion in this country on the
relative wages Of labor there and here.
The letter is in reply to Prof. Faweett $
article in the Fortaightly Reg'e17, IN
which the Professor argued that the
value of English labor is only a trlf1e,
If at all. greater than it was some years
aoo. The writer shows that the aver
ace excise tax paid by each person S11 was
9s 7Id in 1851, and 15s 74d IN Io'z;
that the average consumption OF sugar
has increased from 35 lbs. in 1851 to %
ibs in 1872; of tea, from q lbs TO o4i
of proyisions. from ) to l9; and that
although the home production OF meat meat
has increased IN a greater ratio thaI aI
nopulation, its price has advanced o.
per cent. From these and similar IacOs
he infers that the labOring classes have
more money to spend now than tnel
had then.

Rousseau not only becomes exceedingly con-

dirty, lying, cantng, ill-conditioned vaga-

and whined and raved against the world be-

existence, he paused at the door to say,
Mother, am going to die, and when l am
no more, wish the doctor to cut me open
and look at my stomach. The maternal
mind was filled with awful forebodings, and
