From Mr.. John Moves, who arrived yester-
day from Utah, we learn the following items
of interest concerning the country to the
south. At Salt Lake City the most severe
drought on record is being experienced. Jor-
dan river was never known to be so low as
it is at present ; and at the city so great is the
scarcity of water that the streets have not
been sprinkled or the gardens Or lawns irri-
gated for the past three weeks. The conse-
quence is that the city, usually the pink of
cleanliness, and luxuriant in the glory of
green leaves, is beginning to assume the dusty,
grimy appearance of a mining town. Mr.. N.
speaks very highly OF the passenger accom-
modations on the U. N. Coming up the ex-
press train frequently ran ahead OF schedule
time when the speed was slowed down, or the
train stopped altogether until the regulations
of the time table were complied with. The
terminus will be moved from Camas to the
head of Beaver Canon in about two weeks,
and from the latter place to Red Rock before
tie snow flies. A strong force of graders are
already employed on this side of the Pleasant
Valley range.

work of removing those who have not had
the fever into camps, six miles from the
city, is now going on. If successful it
will entirely stop the epidemic. 1t is the
only way to fight yellow JACK.
So far it has not extended to any other
town or city-except some isolated cases
in quarantine.
In New Orleans some four cases have
occurred, and further news from there ! :

Editors Union Citv CtroEi-le In your
issue of 26th inst, c5mmenting on my
charge that some of your people are and
have been eve since our misfortuues Of
last SIMMER continually circulating de
Hber7te falsehoois, by telegraph and
otherwise, with the view TO injure HEX
man ana force tra1eto your place, you
ask me 10 publish faces and nos give
rumOrs. Very we'll, Mr.. Editor, read he
following special telegram from Union
City of 2lst inst, and mark the language
therein; should other cases occur at
Martin or Hickman there viii be gem
eral exodus of our people. Does not
that telegram contain the direct charge
that we already had a case or cases Of yell
low fever here? again, Mr.. Editor, If you
will look up the flies of the American for
the six weeks succeeding the close Of our
epidemic last fail you will dnd several
kilograms as specials from Union City,
charging new cases of yellow fever in
Hickman, Ky. Come nearer home and
look over the files Of the papers publish
ed in your own place and you Will find
reports of new cases IN Hickman weeks
after all symptoms O. the disease had dis
appeared. Again. Louis Kayser, baker
in Hickman, went out on the road last
week; he found the car doors locked on
him, and your city marshal informed him
that your city had quarantined against
Hickman on account OF our having had
already ttro cases of yellow fever aud one
death fro n that cause.
Now, Mr.. Editor ! have confined my
self to public acts and facts, and shall
not enter the field Of private reports, for
their name would be legion. ask you in
csndor If it is not enough. Your author
tiles can always ascertain in q few min
utcs, by telegraphing to DR.. a. A. Faris,
President of our Board of Health, the
truth or falsity Of any charge that there
Is yellow fever here Ought they not to
have done so before giving their official
sanction TO tie false reports Concerning
our city, /, IN common with the citizens
o. Hickman have been incensed at it. 1t
may be that no sinister motive has actu-
ated your people or authorities, but il
has done rs great injustice and injury.
Now, that public attention has been call
ed to the matter, / trust it will cease al
together. Let us rather work together as
friends and neighbors, and, if possible,
keep out the fell destroyer. l via say
now and here, and your people may rely
upon it, that your authorities shall have
prompt and official notification of the first
appearance Of yellow fever in our midst,
should it appear. Respectfully,
