ANOTHER "HERALD" SCHEME.
A New Incorporation to Pay OFF Old
Debts-Mannger,J John Taylor.

Articles of incorporation were to-day
filed with the Clerk OF the County Court
by the Herald company of this city, an
organization which succeeds the old Her.
atd Printing and Publishing Company.
The capital stock is represented at $780,
600, only 100000 of which is paid up, the
remaining 100000 being reserved as the
common property of the company. The
issued stock is divided into 900 shares of
500 each, and is distributed among prom
inent Mormons in all parts of the Terri
tory. The officers elected for the ensuing
year are as follows: John I. Game, Pres
ident; Heber j. Grant, Vice President |;
Elias A. Smith, Secretary and Treasurer.
Directors-John T. Game, Heber J..
Grant, Francis Armstrong, James Sharp,
David James, S. p. Teasdel, Junius f.
Wells, w. II. Rowe, John r. Winder,
William Jennings, p. T. Farnsworth, w.
w. Ritter and John @. Cannon.
The old company, it is understood, has
sold out, body and soul, to the new cor
poration, and becomes disincorporated
upon the assumption by the new organi-
zation of all debts and accounts attaching
to the former concern.
In its issue of yesterday the Herald de-
votes several columns to an array of the
names of its numerous stockholders, and
feeds itself considerable homemade taffy
on the subject of its great future. There
is one thing which does not appear in the
papers filed by the company, viz: that
John Taylor is president and manager

JUDGE POWERS CONFIRMATION /.
An ogden Correspondent sets Forth
Some Reasons why IL should he.
OGDEN. Utah. January 1e. 1856.

OdDEN, Juan, JunuaTy TO- loOO'
EDITOR DEMOCRAT Permit me, whose
opportunity to see and study the course,
official conduct and character OF o. w.
Powers, Judge OF the First Judicial Dis
trict, is equal to any mans in Utah, to
give the following plain reasons why he
should be promptly confirmed by the
Senate. l am not of his political faith,
under no obligations to him, seek no Of
fetal favor, and write only as loyal
American, who desires that the laws of
the Republic shall be fairly, fearfully and
Justly administered:
First-Judge Powers is thoroughly ed
ucated in the law, as he is also scholarly
and refined gentleman.
Second-He is less than forty years OF
age, full of ambition to rise by the merit
of learning, and to adorn the Bench be-
cause of being sound, profound Judge,
rather than a popular, or popularity
seeking official.
Third-He is q marvel OF industry,
search and inquiry, never deciding except
for reasons given, and the sources OF his
reasons readily at hand.
Fourth-He is polite on the Bench, be-
ing gentleman both within and without
the Bar. Calm as the marble, however
great the surroundings may tend to con-
FUSION he is, at the moment for action,
prompt, clear, brave, decisive and intelli-
gent.
Fifth-He has added to his vast legal
knowledge, and the rapid thoroughness
with which he has mastered the true sit
uation that surrounds Judge in Utah,
width of appreciation that few men
could have secured in many times his pc
riod OF official service here.
Sixth-He is true American" in
faith, hope and feeling, and is beyond the
reach OF fear or corruption.
Seventh--His rulings shine with the
| jewels OF education, and astonish, while
they convince, by the fullness of their
grasp.
Eighth-He knows the difficulties which
beset a Judge here; new man would
have to learn them.
Ninth-He is proud of his place in the
Governments confidence, proud OF his
country's honor, and knows that to falter
in the wise performance Of duty would
blast him forever.
Tenth-He is rapidly gro'ving man.

LONDON, January ia sensation has
been created blythe publication of a letter
from Prince Bismarck to the Pope acknowl-
edging the receiptNof the decoration of the
order OF Christ, recently conferred on the
German Chancellor by His Holiness. The
letter commences by addressing the Pope ms
Sire" and says: "Your kind letter and
decoration have greatly gratiiied myself
and Emperor William" 1t then goes ON to
state that the Pope's words, that Papacy
means to practice works of pence, first SUD.
gested to Bismarck the idea of seeking tIe
mediation of the Pope in the Carolines affair,
and in Difference to his faith and unweak,
ened confidence in the Pope's elevated views
and impartiality, he selected the Pope az mr..
bitrator of the dispute. Germany and spain
have no cause to complain of the terms OF
the protocol, and the effect of the medi-
alton will be lasting. Prince bismarck will
not neglect chances to attest his lively graft,
tude, highest devotion and deepest respect
for His Holiness in thefuture. The letter Is
marck." '''

shoshone Falls on Canvas.

Mr.. Harry Edwards, the gentleman
who attained some local fame here as an
expert cartoonist, some time ago, has
demonstrated his ability for more CLASH
cal and refined work than his former
amusing efforts developed. He has re-
Gently completed large painting, which
is now on exhibition in Tullidge's store
subject, Shoshone Falls-and for several
days has been the recipient of numerous
compliments. This magnificent phenom-
enon uf nature is very beautifully de-
picted on the canvas, and were it not for
e slight defect in coloring, would be con-
sidered an excellent piece of work. As
1t is, there is much to admire in the ar
lists work, particularly in Lis faithful
drawing, which almost succeeds in BAN
ishing what might be considered faults in
the coloring. His success will doubtless
lead him on to other efforts in this direc-
ton, as it should do, for he evidently
possesses talent for the art.
