JEFF. DAVIS has found his way
into the newspapers again by means
of a long communication over his
signature, which he claims was
called forth by an article written by
Judge Jere S. Black. Mr.. Davis
shows plainly that he is unrepent-
ant and that he believes his cause
was right. No one will doubt that
the ex-President OF the Confederacy
is conscientious in his belief, but
everyone will say that whatever
his present opinion may be in regard
to the position of the south, graft
tude for the neck that was spared
by a generous cOnqueror ought TO
keep the old mans mouth shut as to
that particular subject. Mr.. Davis
opinion as to the rightfulness of the
rebellion can make no possible diff,
ference to this country, in view of
the fact that his opinion was over
whelmingly declared to be wrong
twenty years, and the declaration
has been ratified and emphasized
every year since by the Union grow
ing stronger and closer. The cir
cumstance that the ex-President
was not hanged as a traitor and that
he is today able to form and express
ideas upon the subject, are the very
things that should suggest to him
the wisdom Of keeping silent. A
man convinced against his will is
not convinced, but he sometimes
has the decency to respect the feel
iDgs Of those who have been gener-
GUS if not just to him.

We must get up an exposition or
entertainment of some kind, and
bring the people here. We may not
be able to arrange grand show, in
a mechanical sense, but we can
present natural attractions that few
other cities possess, and can make it
pleasant for visitors, and they can
make it pleasant for Salt Lake by
leaving some OF their money here.
What shall our show be, and when
shall it be inaugarated2

AN EDITOR at Red Bluff, Cal, has
one of the softest "sits" in the pro-
fesslon. The other day he murdered
a man. probably delinquent sub
scriber, and as the sentiment of
California is changing somewhat, it
demands the incarceration of the
journalist. The consequence is the
editor is kept in a cell, secure from
the attacks of the man who hunts
for the fellow who put that article
in the paper" and free from the
visits of the bores who infesr the
sanetum, while he can write, scissor
and paste as he pleases. His paper
comes out regularly, and as the
editor has nothing else to disturb
his attention the tone snd quality
OF the journal show marked
Improvement. The career Of the
man may furnish a hint to other
editors who are conducting news
papers under difficulty. However,
we should have stated that the Red
Bluff editor and the sheriff are part
ners IN the newspaper, which may
explain some things in connection
With the soft "sit" enjoyed by the
former.

evlnS mother, T
BARBARA STURMER.

For the past month farmers have
been congratulating themselves on the
fine appearance of the growing crops
and the prospect ahead for good yield.
Oats particularly were mentioned as
being remarkable crop, standing full
and heavy, and with the cool weather
of late were filing out in fine shape.
A few hours storm Sunday night fol-
lowed by another Monday morning, has
changed the looks Of everything and
this crop in particular, and instead of
promise we have dependency. The
storm was one Of wind and rain, with
dashcs of hail, which levelled many
fields as though they had been rolled.
Such fields are undoubtedly ruined and
they are numerous in the track of the
storm. One field in particular, belong
ing to MIR. 10. Nathan, which Saturday
evening was spoken of as being one of
the finest stands of oats in the county.
Monday morning was fiat with the
ground and, in the language of one
who had seen it, mot worth fifty cents
to the acre" Had it not been for the
succeeding storm of Monday morning,
many fields might have raised up, but
this packed and fastened the grain SO
as to preclude all hopes of any relief in
tina: way. Other small grains suffered
in the same manner rs oats. Corn has
received bad set back, but was hardly
of size to receive serious damage and
with good weather, in few weeks will
show but slight traces of the visitation.
The hay crop. which was looked upon
as something remarkable, is badly
damaged. not only by these two rains
but by those of the week before. From
reports it is proper to estimate that
the loss on this crop will be thirty
three and a third per cent. Taking
everything into consideration the out
look just at present is extremely dis
couraging to agriculturalists, but it is
hoped that better weather may brighten
the horizon in the coming weeks.

A NEW disease, somewhat akin to the
old-time epizootic, appears to have bro
ken out among young pigs north of this
city. The seat of the trouble seems to
be the nose. which, in the language OF
our informant, "stuffs up. A loss OF
appetite follows, and the animal dies in
the course of few weeks. The disease
appears entirely among the young pigs,
the Older hogs being untouched. Mr..
VIM. Schlosser is said to have been the
principal sufferer, to the extent of twenty
pigs, and other cases have appeared
among the drovcs of Mr. James Borah
and VIM. Dyer.
