Dear Herald-Cold weather is
fast coming on, and who is fully
prepared for it?
With the cotton crop cut off at
least one half and the remaining
more or less injured by rain, it is.
no wonder the cry of "hard times"
is heard in every direction. The
few who will be able to 'pay out"
will, indeed, be fortunate.
Corn is greatly injured. Cane
grinding is fast coming to q close.
Many were forced to grind early,
and consequently, were forced to
put up with short crop.
The winter parties have set in,
and the young people who would
not dance for anything, do not hesi:
tate in the least to "go to Boston" "
or "play the glide"
The party at Mr.. Wash Lambert's s
is said to have been q very enjoy
able affair.
The ginning season is nearly
over; so far none of the gins have
ginned any thing like the number
of bales Of cotton they had ginned
at the same time last year. Such
quantities Of dirty cotton has seldom
been seen as has been gathered this
season.
Mr.. Wing is able to walk on
crutches, but not to use his crippled
limb; and in all probability never
will. We fear he is doomed to be
a cripple the rest of his life. He
has a large family of little childrei
dependent on him for support.
There is some talk Of wedding
close by in the near future. 1t may
be all talk, but there is certainly
room for the guess. 1t is about
time there were some weddings
around, as it has been some time
since there was one.
Hester Reese, a colored woman,
on Mr.. Streets place, had her house
burglarlzed one evening last week.
Her loss was pretty heavy, con-
sidering her circumstances, and
consisted of bed clothes and wear
ing apparel principally. No clue.
Joe Jackson, who was pardoned
from the state prison some time
since, is still in a bad condition
from the effects of the brutal treat

Mr.. Editor - A sensation was

box from Liberty. This writer put
on a sham indifference, but this

clamor which demanded an imme-

marvellous dispatch. Articles we're

now it is four feet squarel Boxes

The Chancery Court was in ses-

Lauren presiding. The attendance
on last Monday and Wednesday
was large. The Judge did not open
Court until Wednesday, but when
he did set the machinery in mo-
ton he dispatched a very large
amount of business in short time.
There was some very interesting
chancery business in the settlement
of decedents estates, and any
amount of divorce cases. Some
seven or eight final DEGREES were
signed by his Honor, and suudry
causes continued. The Court was
an interesting one throughout.

Medieval Methods.

That was fanciful conceit which
endeavored to draw parallels between
the gradual civilization and decay OF
nations and the lite of man. Though
the idea of making the small boy cor
respond with the savage and predatory
era does not appear to be so very far
fetched both having one thing in COM
mon, desire to cut their names or
achievements on rocks, trees. etc
evidently realizing fully that pictures.
however rude, easily convey ideas. In
days when to be able to read was con-
sldered SO great an accomplishment as
to place man above all laws excepting
ecclesiastical, those who wished to
inform others of their wants or wares
were compelled to do it by the labo-ious
bellowings of the public crier or by
standing ct their store door and crying
Good people what do you LACE ?"
After while one of these lazy persons
to whom the world has been Indebted
for so many improvements, to save his
lungs, painted what he had to sell on
the outside of his house. Then to dis
tinguish the different dealers in the
same goods the heraIdic devices of the
nobility and gentry were used to sig nifty
that they were the patrons, and, no
doubt. from that sense of gratitude
which is lively sense of favors to come,
until by the middle of the eighteenth
century the streets were rendered
absolutely dangerous By reason of the
immense and expensive sign-boards.
Newspapers we're then in their infancy,
and the advertisements in them were
more like those of the want" column
of the present day; it was not until the
duty was taken off paper that advertis-
ing in newspapers became the enorm-
Gus business that it now is. The de-
mand creates supply, and men
hampered by other business were only
too glad to be able to transfer the work
of placing advertisements to agents
who have now become so important a
factor in the business transactions Of
the world. Chicago naturally has an
agency of her own which. if not actually
the largesr, is certainly one of the
largest in the world. We allude to
Messrs. Lord & Thomas, with branch
Offices. in New York and st. Louis. A
visit to the head Office at Nos. IS. a.
and 40 Randolph Street bids fair soon
to become as much part of doing"
Chicago as Lincoln Park and the pack
ing houses. 1t is extraordinary to wit
ness the rapidity with which any one of
the IA 600 papers in the country can be
produced owing to their system of wire
files. We can with confidence recon-
mend any one of our readers who wish
courteous treatment or who need the
benefit of the twenty years experience
possessed by this firm, to call on them
and see for themselves how easily this
most complicated business can be
managed by competent men.-Chicago

and secured. One @sthod is to con-
struct reservoir at or near the point of
the mountain south of the city, on land
of sufficient height to admit of enough
pressure to carry water to the high
bench land, which is rapidly building
up, also to our bleak and dres-y
cemetery. We may as we'll take
broad view of the matter now as any
time, andinclude the east bench, North
Salt Lake, and the various additions
being made. In constructing the T. ser
voir, have it large enough to retain suf-
fcient water to keep up the supply for
at least a week, in case repairs are
needed for the pump or machinery
required to bring the water from the
Utah Lake to the reservoir. Chief
Ottinger's head is level on the water
question, and it would be wise TO give
heed to what he says IN the matter, for
has, both here and elsewhere. 1t has
been suggested to place machinery near
the Jordan bridge, west of the city, and
secure supply from there. l simply
ask question: Is Jordan River the
natural sewerage drain for the valley !?
The seepage extends from the Wasstch
to the Oquirrh range. Consequently
it receives the animal, vegetable and
mineral matter carried to its bed by the
undercurrents and seepage, while each
spring the surface is washed by rains
and SHOWS and carried to its waters, to
be deposited in the Great Salt Lake.
Now hen for the dams in City Creek
Canyon. New corners may see water
bonanza up there, but do not, know
ing the climate and soil SO well. On
the contrary, in the future 1 see a
ruined city, and heavy loss of life.
One, two or half-a-dozen dams may be
thrown across the stream, each to
counteract the other, but each will only
aid in the destruction the other begins.
If reservoirs must be made, make them
of solid masonry on the east bench, or
Capitol Hill-anywhere but up the
canyon.
Little Cottonwood has been men
toned. At present, the water is pure,
but at the head mining is carried on
extensively, and. in time, this may i'm
pair its purity. but ere long water must
be had for culinary, surface and sewer :
age purposes.
