If the Gentile and Mormon iu
habitants of Utah do not report to
riolence riot and revolution, it is
certainly no fault either of the Utah
press or the sensational telegraphic
press reporters who tiro making
day and night hideous with their
constant appeals to passion and preju
dice. What, with this class of par
tisan organs and the rapacity of office
hunters, both Gentile nud Mormon,
the people in lirighamdom evince it
great degreo of patience and good
common sense in keeping their hands
oil' each others throats.
That ignorance and stupidity are
still essential qualifications of petit
jurors in New York, is once more
demonstrated by the developcincnts
in the Foster murder case. Having
heard all the evidence and arguments
pro and con, the jury that tried Fos
ter brought in a verdict of murder in
the first degree. That these jurors
fully understood the penalty of this
offense to bo death by hanging, no
sane man can doubt. And noiv sev
eral of these intelligent jurors come
before Governor Dix and stnto under
oath "that conviction lor murder
could never luitu been obtained but
for the belief by the jurors that a
recommendation to mercy would pro
cure it commutation of the sentence
to imprisonment for life." Accept
ing this statement as true, wo should
like to know what husiueis n juror
has to calculate upon the M)sible
exercise of the pardoning power in
making up his verdict. The ivrtc
ment made by these dunces cstabli dies
ono thing ptetty clearly, namely,
that Foster was guilty of the offense
with which he was charged. It also
leaves u ntthor strong inference that
since rendering the verdict theso
jurois have been taken in hand by
parties who could make them see
straight objects obliquely through
gilded spectacles.

To the people of the "Great West"
this is a subject of vital importance,
It is almost a matter of life and
death with our farmers and stock
raisor. Unless some plan can bo de
vised to facilitate the transportation
of our products to the markets in the
Atlantic States and Europe, it will
be almost an impossibility for the pro
ducers of the West to cultivato the

transportation to tlio lakes and sea

of no journalist that has attempted
to criticizo tho firm course of Gov

should justice not be meted out to

should be just as good as another.
Capital punishment is intended, it
is assumed, to serve as an example to
evil doers. Unles we demonstrate
that wealth nud social standing will
shield no one against the punishment
of the law, lives and property of
good and jieaceable citizens will re
main insecure, ami criminal codes
can hnve no terror for a largo class of
our very worst criminals. Instead
of attempting to shield professedly
religious asas.Mns against the rigors
of justice, teachers of religion and

Tlio importation of tobacco from
China is decidedly n novelty, and
therefore it is worthy of record that
during tho past month there have
been received largo arrivals of this
description of tobacco. It is used in
somo measure as a substitute for Tur
key, which it resembles in appearance,
though not equal in quality. The
leaf is quite yellow, and is almost
void of flavor. At present it might,
perhaps, be premature to speculate
as to toe probability of a large trade
being done between England and
China in tobacco; but tho imports
which have come to hand show, at
any rate, that tho Celestials can all

carriage and two beautiful horses, till
ot a lather with swett, drew up at
my door, mid a crave, tall, solemn
looking chap conies up to mv door
" out:

' ,nl ,ne ?:,ys J' .
"Oh, then, jump i
wltli his finger to me
in," pointing
nifcr to me to cet up the
steps of tho carriage, where thero was
a tall flunky holding open the door
forme.
S.tys I, " Master, where aro you
bound ?"
"Oh, never mind," says lie; "you
will bo well paid. Look sharp."
" But I'd liko to beautify myclf
a bit," says I, "and I mini tell the
misux."
With that, he took up my hat that
was lying on the counter, and b.tug-i
it on my head,' and pushes me into
tho carriage, and away we went be
fore you could say "Jack Robinson."
Eh, but we did go rarely ! It was a
dark night and Iroity ; and wo soon
got out of tho lights of the town,
nnd still tho horses galloped on; ami
I could see tho stars twinkle over
head ; and then it grew colder all of
n sudden, and tlio windows of the
carringo were covered with ice in a
minute, and I could see nought but
the inside, where I was sitting with
tho strange man. And he said never
a word. But still we galloped on,
and nfter a good bit 1 heard tho mur
mur and dash of a river hard by
abovo tho clatter of tho hoofs, and
wo cio ajd a bridee. I think, for we
went up and down for a minute, as if
we had been in a swing. And then
the sound of hoofs died away,
as if tho horses wcro galloping
over gravel or boft turf; and pres
ently the carriago stopped all of a
sudden. A footman stood at tho
door; the silent man stepped out.
"Stay thoro 1" ho cried, as he went,
with a gesture of authority "stay
there !" And there I staid, for I wore
cowed-like, with being can icdoil'llkii
that ; and didn't know if my soul
were my own. "What'Jl tho old wo
man say ?" I thought to myself. The
carriago moved on a bit and stopped
again.
"Now then, my hull" says the
footman, opening tho door.
But I weren't going to be ordered
about by such cattlo as he. Says 1 :
"I'm on thy master's business, nnd if
thou doesn't speak rcpcctful, I'll
smite thee In the ear-hole." It's well
to stand on your dignity with tlioae
chaps, you see.
"Oh," I beg your pardon," savs the
man, more respectful ; "but will you
step into the housekeeper's room V"
And with that I fell off tho high
horse I hail been riding, for, to tell
you the truth, 1 were thinking for a
while I were, jierhaps, rightful son
of a lord as had been stolen in his
youth, and that they were taking me
home to tho halls of my fathers, and
hapjien were going to "marry me to
the daughter of the usurper, to make
all Mquarc. But says I : "I'll stick
to the old woman." Not but what
the llesh is treacherous, and happen
I'd have changed my mind when I'd
seen the young one. But, however,
all that was knocked on the head
when tho ilunky told me to go to
tho housekeeper's room. It was only
a dressing job after all.
Well bolore I'd got well inside the
door, au old chap dressed in black,
catches hold of mo by tho elbow.
"Crcecher?" says he; "Creccher?"
"Yes, I'm Creechor," says I,
''What's your pleasure ?"
"Oh, you've to come this way
d'jreqljr "
And away wo went along passages,
and up stairs, and down stairs ; and
presently we came to n broader cor
ridor beautifully carpeted, and, the
old man tapping at a door, and a
young woman opened it,, and says
she : "Is ho hero ?" and tho the man
bays, "Yes." "Como in," sho said ;
"my lady will speak to you directly."
And I went into a littlo room as was
beautifully furnished with easy chairs
and hofoyes, and all the luxuries ol
the season.
"Wei', my dear," says I to tho
maid, "and so your misses is going to
the ball. But it'll bo well nigli time
to go homo before sho gets there."
'Hush," sho says, holding up her
finger; and then I began to think it
was a death job I had got on hand.
1'vo had such jobs aforo now, when
tho corpse has been young, nnd with
beautiful hair. Ah! nnd manv n
time my finders has itched, for. sayH I
I to myself, it's a pity such a sight of
oeauiiiui uair suotiiu go down to
tho worms, when it might bo going
to enjoy it-elf atop of some
other young woman's head ah.
and I could tell you a talo or two
about that! But it wasn't a job of
that kind, I found, as I heard some
body moving in the next room, and
such a soft littlo moan, ns it went to
my heart to hear it ay, lad. And
then somebody came out a tall,
splendid lady, dressed in black satin,
as haughty as a queen.
"Creecher," she says, "are you
Crcecher? Don't speak but listen to
what I tell yov. A lady hits had tin
accident has been severely burned.
Remedies have been applied plas
ters, what not. Her hair"
"I understand, my lady: von want
mo to take it off. I'll do It in a jiffy,
if yolt'll lend me ono of his lordship's
razors, for I was that hurried when I
came away I left mine behind me.
I've got my scissors nnd comb, my
lady,,Tsays I, pulling 'em out.
"Silcncol" she savs. "CreeeliprI"
looking at mo quite disgusted ; nnd
beckoning tho girl, sho says: "Take
the lire shovel nnd throw them things
nwnv." But I wasn't going to lose a
good set of tools, so 1 claps 'em into
toois, so i cinps 'em into
, nnd buttons tin my coat,
: "Now, your ladyship,"
ps: "Amelfe, throw home-
my pocKci, nnu
nnd says i :
nnd htm nv
tiling over the wretch."
And with that Amelio brought a
white ijown with sleeves, nndnneltas
beautllul as n, noegay, and she
wraps me up in it, and I canght a
sight of myself J-i tho glass, nud,
thinks I, you might tnko mo for n
parson when he's agate nt the sevon
commandments.
"Now," she says, "Crcecher, hold
your tongue and listen to me. What
ever luipjieiu, the must ntit lose her
hair; you understand, it must be
saved nt all hazards. Now, come,
and do your duty."
Eh I but it were pitiful to see tho
poor lassie, half-sitting, half-lylng. in
a stato atween an easy choir and a
couch. All her face was covered
over but her eyes, nnd they seemed to
burn. Such tad nud pitiful eyes I
never saw before nor since. SliM
...... .,w fc-.. .. ( .......,
had beautiful long hair that came I
down tu her knees almost, but eh I it
was in a tangle, all knotted, and
twisted and raveled together with the
messes and poultices and all kinds of
things they d put on her head. No'
thero wasn't a thread of it anywhere
that wan't bound up and twisted.
Well, I looked nt it and I shook my
head.
"My ladv," says I, "It would tako
mo twelve "hours hard work, withnut
stopiilug, to untwist nil that hair."
"Well, then," a.ivs she to me. "why
don't you begin ?"
(Cuntlnii.il.)
President Thiers lately remarked

milling, "But I don't think they will
