Persia's Opportunity,

London, 9.-The Times has reason to
believe that directions have been sent to
the British minister at Teheran, to inform
the Persian government that her
msjesty's government releases Persia
from the treaty engagement of 1857 by
which Persia bound herself not to take
possession of Herat. This is tantamount
to an invitation to Persia to do the thing
she is thus expressly permitted to do.
The Times adds: We seem in effect to
have handed Herat over to Persia, with
view 10 uniting the interests Of Persia
and India in opposition to Russia.
London, 10.-The Times says we shall
learn with pleasure that the permission
of government to Persia TO occupy Herat
does not involve a guarantee Of secure
possession. If England is to be liable
for what msy happen in the direction OF
Heratt there seems to be an almost end
less vista of responsibility opening out
more and more widely at each remove.
A demonstration by Russia which would
have little or no meaning before, might
be the ground ofvery grave suspicion in
view of its possible effect on the state of
affairs at Herat.

The United States and the
ISthmus Canal.

New York, 10.-T1ibune'S Washing
ton: Hayes believes that neither the
people nor government Of this country
will ever consent to the existence Of any
inter oceanic canal, either across Panama
or any other part of Central America,
which is not controlled by the govern
ment Of the United States, or its citizens,
and that our position in this matter ought
to be announced in unequivocal terms
before any scheme of that kind has been
set on foot. Does the President hold that
the Monroe doctrine would prevent the
control of such canal by private COM
pany, if that company was European
one? may be asked. Certainly. Take
Lesseps' company, for instance. 1t is
chartered by the French government,
and while that government disclaims all
responsibility for it. the fact remains that
the company would look to the French
government for protection in case it ever
got into Trouble, and it would get that
protection too. The President believes,
therefore, that Lesseps and all others

QUESTION OF vERACITY
Between q Distinguished Cen
eraI and Equally PrOmi-
ne0L Correspondents.

London, 9.-Dr. William Howard
Russell, the celebrated war correspond
ent, whose pictures of Zulu campaigns
and Of the Transvaal beers have transfer
red to the Telegraph much Of the fame
that he originally won for the Times, ar.
rived here yesterday. He is preparing
to defend himself against the attacks of
Sir Garnet Wolseley, who charges him
with coloring his letters to the prejudice
of the British army in South Africa. DR.
Russell is a man of energy. He no sooner
landed than he made his way TO the
Horse Guards and asked for an interview
with the Duke of Cambridge. He had
long been intimate with the commander
in-chief, aud has long been favored by
the royal family. He has ridden beside
the Prince of Wales howdah in the
jungles of Nepaul, and stood among the
elect at the Agra Drubar. 1t is need
less, therefore, to say that he returned
triumphant from the interview. The
duke expressed the utmost confidence In
his veraeity, and the matter will now re-
solve itself into literary duel between
Sir Garnet and the valiant doctor.

SALT LAKE
WEEKLY HERALD

About the 1st of March, we will
begin the publication of a Weekly
Edition OF the HERALD. The demand
for such q paper has been very
pressing during he past two
or three years. The aim of
the publishers will be to furnish
paper for those people who live
of the main lines OF travel and who
are not accommodated with mail se--
vice oftener than once a week; to
provide a newspaper for those who
have only one day week of leisure
to devote to the pleasant and profits-
BILE employment of reading; to supply
q suitable edition of the HERALD for
sending Abroad paper that shall
faithfully and honestly represent this
great and growing territory, with its
many and important industries and
its thrifty, enterprising people; to
make a paper for the home circle and
family freside. one that shall contain
the news, and at the same time COM
bine the essential elements OF q liter
airy, educational and industrial jour.
nal. In fact, our aim will be to make
the WEEKLY HERALD a welcome
visitor to the home, where it will be
found constant fund of instruction,
entertainment and profit, to
all members of the family
Besides the leading characteristics of
toe Daily, the Weekly will contain
matter specially for the sgriculturist,
the gardener, the stock-raiser, the
mechanic, the kitchen and the house
hold generally, and an important
feature of its columns will be the
well-chosen, entertaining and moral
literature, also reports of the Taber-
nscle discourses. Nothing will be adj
mitted to its columns that has not
first been carefully prepared and re-
vised. The price will be only 80 a
year, q figure unp-ecedentedly low
for far west newspaper. We conf
IDENTIFY predict for the WEEKLY
HERALD one OF the greatest successes,
and the efforts of the publishers shall
be to make the paper merit the popu-
lsrity that it cannot fail to attain.

THE
SALT LAKE
DAILY HERALD.

The HERALD enters upon the new
year with better hopes and brighter
prospects than it ever before enjoyed.
The remarkable success of the paper
in the past, as manifested by its large
and steadily growing subscription
list. IFS increasing advertising patron
age and the expressions of goodwill
towards the journal which greet US
from all quarters, convinces the pub
fishers that they are doing what they
set out to do-namely, furnish a
newspaper that the people would like,
and therefore support. The HERALD,
as in the past, will be the peoples
paper. Independent in q political
sense, it will always be found
on the side of the people, outspoken
on questions affecting the rights OF the
masses; battling for local selfgovern-
ment and the largest liberty to indi-
viduals consistent with public good;
lsboring for q pure, honest and eco
nomic administration OF government;
treating public matters dispassion-
stely and employing language cslcu-
lated to enlighten the reason of men,
rather than influence their passions.
and working for peace and the de-
velopment of the resources of the ter
ritory, instead of trying to create strife
and retard progress. With our in
creased facilities for gathering news,
both by telegraph and mail, the en-
ployment of larger number of cor
respondents in different sections of
the country, and the better arrange
ment of all the many details of the
establishment, we confidently promise
to make the SALT LAKE DAILY
HERALD a better paper than ever.

How the Poneas were Robbed.

New York, 10.-The Times says Rep
resentative DeeriDg has introduced bill
to compensate the POnca Indians ior
lands from which they were wantOnly ex-
PEELED in 1877. The bill appropriates
$3.50, 900, part of which is to be used for
the immediate wants of the Indians, part
for the purchase of a reservation, and the
remainder is to be funded for their ben
eft, annually, for ever" We may sup
pose the whole amount is to be accepted
as payment for the sc, 900 acres of land in
Dakota, formerly occupied by Poncas,
and which was ceded to them by solemn
treaty. By q blunder in Masking the
Sioux treaty Of 1868, the Ponca tract was
ceded to the Sioux, and the Poncas were
driven down to Indian Territory, where
great numbers OF them died in conse-
quence of the change in climate. The
Ponca reservation has never been occu-
ped by the Sioux or by any other peo-
pie. The Poncas sre on tract belong
ing to the Cherokees, from whom it is
to buy the new reservation. So
far as the Poncss have been able to make
their wants known, they are most anx-
ious to go back to their own country. If
there is any good reason why they should
not be sent back and their lands restored
to them, nobody authorized to speak for
government has made that reason public.

An Official Entertainment.

New York, 1O.-The T1'ibne's Wash
ington has an account of a fete at the
Mexican legation, wherein it says: Eng
land, France and Austria were missed
from the scene, but other European
countries and China, Japan and South
America were appropriately represented.
The intellectual face of Yung Wing,
assistant Chinese minister, side by side
with his beautiful New England wife,
was harmonious contrast. With them
was Bartlett, their American secretary of
legation, with his daughter. All the
cabinet officers were present with their
ladies, excepting Secretary Sherman,
who was entertaining guests at home,
and whose family was represented at
the Mexican minister's by Miss Parsons.
Private Secretary Rogers represented the
executive mansion. Among the guests
were General Sherman, Associate JUS
tees Strong, Miller and Harlan, many
senators, including Blaine, Thurman,
Speaker Randall, and number of repre-
sentatives, nearly all accompanied by
ladies.

A Blast For General Sherman,

New York, 1O.-The Times Washing
ton special says Representative Spear, of
Georgia, recently introduced in the House
bill TO prohibit bands of the army
playing music on Sunday. This bill, it
seems, is Objectionable to General Sher-
man, and that distinguished officer has
written q letter to Spear in which he
threatens 10 remove the troops from the
garrison at Atlanta if that gentleman
presses his bill. This has brought upon
Spear large number of letters from At
lanta, protesting sgainst its passage.
Spear has been irritated by Sherman
method of expressing opposition to his
measure, and proposes to rise to per-
sonal explanation aud to call the general
of the army to account for threatening to
use his official influence to defeat mea-
sure pending in Congress, and for at
tempting to intimidste memb ers of the
House.
