Fron Our Own Correspondent. Uran, March 2, 1878, The great question for solution now is THE MORMON QUESTION, sud people in thia Territory are thoroughly roused up aboutit, One thing is certain, and that 18, Mormonism is the most dreadfnl tyranny ever exercised ‘over any white people onm this Continont, -and is full as degrading as old- fashioned nogro slavery. People in the States can gearcely conceive how ¢like dumb, driven cattle” the majority of-Mormons are; mor can they conceive what absolnte delight tho firm stand taken by the President gives to overy re- gpeetable and law-gbiding man. That this foul Lot on one of our fairest Territorics may be wipod out, is earnetly to bo desired. 1t is no 4 Jonger sny use to dally with the matter; it is 8 Shing thet must bo firmly dealt with, and, if necessary, the whole diseased and corrupt mnes must be cut off. The Mormons bave been trifled ith long enongh, and now it is necessary to take eome decisive action. If the Mormons leave tho Territory IN A BODY, it will be tho bast thing that can happen, as, in {ust case, their places will be filled withan honest, law-abiding people, and s flourishing Siate soon be built up. As things now stand, they are a check upon all advancement, and their close corporation effectually stops any- thing like real enterprise. 3 If the Mormons had not monopolized Utah, it sould to-day have been filled up with & happy population, and would have been THE FOREMOST STATE on the Pacific Slopo, text after California. The cry that the Mormons have built up Utah is all onsense ; they filled it up in & certzin way, it is irae, but, in 50 doing, debarred respectable men from Tllinois, Towa, and Misscuri from peopling per fair valleys, and opening the rich silver veins on the mountain-sides. Here, beside the grent inland ses, there would bave been 8 city far in advance of what Salt Lake City is now; snditis fair o suppose the Territory would pave contained over 200,000 inhabitants. But respectable men, with their families, wonld not settle in Utah, for the reason that they wers un- tble to speak their minds freely, lest some bloody fafiap, like Bill Hickmap, or some other fascal of the Mormon Church, should murder fiem ; =nd, if any one had any donbta sbout the sbility of the Mormons to commit murder, lot }im read Bill Hickman's life. A moro mck'u;m‘f Jst of atrocious murders has never boen printe During the cold weather, the great Tabernacle s closed ; but, if a person wishes to hear Mor- nmonism pure and undeflled, let bim visit one of £ets 8 ASSEMBLT-ROOMS,"” @ meeting-houses, on Sunday, and his wishes 7ill be gratified. There are twenty of the as- Fembly-rooms in Balt Lake City,—being one for exch w While in these asscusbly-rooms, the pople observe great decorum, and the Elders Freach to thom. A majority of tho Elders aro Joreizners, and the way they slash about " the English language is & caution. ~ Bat that seems o make little difference, 88 thoy 2o at it hammer ©d tonge, and pound away for dear life. The Eoging 18 creditable, and shows training. Thoir form of worship appears to be copied after that of the Methiodists, and, wore it not for fhe fro< quent uso of the namo of Joseph Smith, one cculd almost faucy he was listening to 8 regular Methodist eermon. _Very fow peopio, aside from {ie Mormons, attend these mostinga. IT 18 A SHAME that the whole of this foir land shonld be given up to this nest of fanstics. Wero thy romoved, P ar commonwealth would spring up, Bn Sty atar could be added to_our Nationai flag. Bot, 8 long &5 the Mormons hold this country, it cannot be done, a8 Americans are determined fiat no State ghall ever be admitted into the Trion which is blighted with the curse of Mor- th all its senseless ceremonies and movism, wi ¢ es al iberseh, and its criminal polygamy. 1t is high Fze somthing was being domo with this com- mupity of outlaws. _ It has been too much the faghion to gloss over {be failings of these people ; but the 'time for sction has come, ang I sincerely trust something mas be done towards solving this lmotty prob- lex, Here, in » Territory belonging to the Enited States, it has been almost impossible for scitizen to got afong at all, unless he would fall jpwith the waye of these people. Allof his eterprises came to naught, and all of his efforts to sdvance bimeelf wero rendered fruitless. Great mountain-rufians asssulted innocent men fia tho streets, and left their corpses to stiffen in 00l night-air. = ‘The Aormons are drifting sonthward, and it is iificult at presont to tell WHAT THEIR INTENTIONS ARE. It is hardly to be presumed that thoy are going ta preparo & pew City, like the present one - Saglt Lake, merely to be cbliged to sbandon it fna fow years. For the fact ie} polygamy Imust tad will be broken up ; ‘and thé Xormons will be traore able to defend it than they would be to Zfend legalized robbery ar musder. The whole Istem is rotten, and no one cciild have foreseen that £ handful of ignorant people, fall of bigatry, ¥ould heve been able to build up & system which bas given 0 much trouble to & grest nation like ours. . The first expedition to Utal, under command of Gen, Albert.§. Johnston, was & failure from beginning to end, and the Mormons wore able to ngh in their sleeves and deride the wholo tiing ; but it was far different when COL. CONSER- - - trossed the Jordan with his drums beating and salors fiving, and_the Mormons were given to toderstand that there would be no more fooling, 123, though our country was engoged in & grest ¥, shohad yet time to give & dose to the polyg- initts which they would remember for & long tme,” Col. Conner’s men were Californis volun- teere, ready snd eager for s fight, and the Mor- 1 osknew well enongh that the mockery of inin gbandoning their houses would not’ go down. There would be no_one now to run after them and implore them t6 come baci, but the Californians would gladly see them go, never to Teturn, Inthose times, one hypocritical old Mormon et & volunteer officer, a4 commenced tho old- tushioned whining way of _talking and threaten- Ig. eaying the Saints (7) were dotormined to \séndon the city snd moveroff southward, but ¥oud first be obliged to burn tho houses.

It is cer- tainly & crying shame that #o horrible a mockery of religion should be suffered to exist. All through Utab, s blight geems tobe over evorything. It crushes tho spirit of the enter- prising mav, and puts a clog cn every improva- ment.~ Slowly, however, this is being changed, and, in year or two, a Gentile, or one who i uot & Mormon, may consider himself safo in lifo and property. ~That a despotisi, as firnr and stronges thet of Brigham Young, should ‘spring up and flourish within the boundaries of o Republic, is onc of tho most remarkablo things connected with the whole history of our Government. But the great majority of the Aormons were 5 .. SERFSIX THE OLD WORLD, and it is not very dificult to keep them aa slaves in Utah. A mejority of the Saints have a stolid 2nd uuliappy look, like that-which we see in the lower classes of animals; they are the mud-sills of Europe. Any condition in life would be bet- ter than their condition in the Old Country, snd 50 they came swarming to our shores, snd, in- stead of thanking us for an asylum and s home, ‘must defy our laws, and help sustain as bateful a tyranny a8 toy on earth. Itisa humbug to sy that they help to develop the country; thoy 30 0o Buch thing, but, on the contrary, occupy the-land which of right belongs to American sottlers snd law-abiding men. 3 B There is an effort being made to bring this matter into politics, which I trust will bo unsuc- cossful. The Mormons have a considersble amount of money, WHICH THEY ARE FREELY USING, in hopes to change the current of public opinion, which of late seems to be uuttm§ in agaivst them. Dut the times are ripe for a full and freo investigation, which will unquestionably result in the abandonment of polygamy by them, ora departure to now Jands, whera thoy may again flourieh for a time, to bo again_driven away by an outraged and indigoant people. THE APPROACH TO THE VALLEY OF TITE BALT LAKE, throngh Weber Canon, is_ono of tho grandost sights on the line of the Union Pacific Railroad. On cither side, the rocks aro Rfled up to a groat Liight, tholr jagged and rgge sides being brokon by deep rifts aud seama, whilo, throngh the nar- row gorga at the bottom, flow tho sparkling waters of Wober River. At the Devil's Gates, the gides of the canon come down almost per- pendicularly, and the waters scathe,” and rosr, and foam, a8 if boiling in a large pot. Thoro are s fow pine trees growing along the steep, rocky sides, and large conglomerate masses ovorhead soém ready o fall and crush everything bolow. Bunch-grass, goldon-rod, and sage-brash get a precarions support, aud scem rather sur- priced that they are ablo Lo live under such ad- ~vorso circumstances. It is along way through the canon, and the railroad-track twists and turns in every direction, while making_the de- gcent from the summit of the Wasatch range of mountains. It was a great crinm&sll: of engincering skill to the rood through this tremendoua gorge, aud cost an immense deal of time and labor. Hore. and there may he seen the remains of the old cabins formerly nsed by the workmen, whils tho two grand curiosities of tho locality, namely: tho Thousand-Mile Tree and the Dovil's Slide, never {ail to arrost the attention of the traveler. The Thousand-Mile Tree is so called, ns it is said to o just a thousand miles wost of Omaba. THE RIDE THROUGH THE GORGE is ono of exceeding interest, and, though & man may have scen many wild prospects, this is robably far more wild _and chaotio than any ho as proviously met with. It soems almost & nataral gate, and through it. on the old immi- grant road, have passed thousands and thou- $ands of men, women, andchildreu who wore on their way to the lands of the Far West. Tt ia bleck and forbidding throughout its whole oxtont, but, at the Devil's Gsto, its grandenr and Torrorh scem to be combined, and form a sceno which can nover be forgotten atter it has once been visited. Through and through tho cars do- scond, and, after a time, roach the opening of the valley of the Great Salt Lake, where a pano- rama of surpassing besuty breaks upon the view. On the right, the mountains seem to bo piled up higher than ‘ever, whilo, in front, may_bo seen the long, low stretch of country which is cover- ed by the waters of the lake, and, far boyond, the ‘dim. blue outlino of the Pah-o-tom and Oguirrh Mountaing struggling up amid the dis- tant waters, or fading awsy sd gradually losing themselves to viow to the southward. 5 This valley has been described so often that it is not worth whilo to go over the ground sgaio. OGDEN - and_thore are many fine farms and orchards round about. The Mormons liere sppear to ba tbriving and energotic, and mmany neat houees attest their desire’ for im- rovement. Itisatthe depotat Ogden—which T Derbaps & milo from tho town—thst passen- gors lesvo the brown cosches of the Union Pa- cific for the yellow ones of the Central Pacitic Siaitrond. Here, too, the Utah Central joins {from the south. "It is 80 like a marine view here that ono ex- pects to see the white 8ails of ships in the dis- fance; but, with the exception of o fow luggers and some hesvy punts, from about Corinne, - THERE IS NO CRAFT ON THE LAKE, - almost excopting the littlosteamer Kato Connor, which ordinarily hovers sbout the mouth of Bear River, near Coriuno. Some day there will be o Zell sapply of vossela on_this dead ses, and & great deal of heavy material will be transported on its waters. Isaw sn old Indian who told mo thef he had hunted rabbits on the ground which 1a now occupiod by tho city. What a wonderfal chamgo bas taken placo!—thongh, when you cometo think of it, twonty-five years is a long time, snd in that period & great ceal of work can ‘be done. Balt Lake has never vet been thoronghly ex- plored, and it was.here that Cspt. Guunison found the poor old blind polican which was fed by his companions, while tho Captain was doing something toward such as exploration. From this one fact, scientific men have been led to believe that animals and birds are endowed with reason- ing faculties. The time is surely. coming when Utah WILL BE A GREAT STATE bt this will not happen until the Mormons are removed. There seems to be almost everything in the Valley necessary for tho welfare and hap- piness of men. I cannot believa the Amorican people will give thig up wholly and exclusively to the Mormons.. Other citizens, it seems to me, have a8 much Tight here a5 tho Saints, sud they have a right to engago in Inrming and in ‘mining witbout being persecated ; and they also have & right to express their opivions freely ‘mpon every subject, whether religious or other- wige. 5 There is nothing more fl:uml. Quring the warm summer months, than .traveling over this country; the weather is charming, and the sirremarknbly invigorating. Fromthe numbr of 0. is o handsome place, ADS - {hat aro being built, one would almost believe a e had sized tpon the Mormons, and that they, too, are anxious to geb their share of the public latds, which are being thrown away at Piich a fearful rate, Like a good many old zien, Brigham Young is becoming grasping and penu- Tiots, sudit is thought he loves o ailroad oven Dotter than th youngest beauty in his extensive Larem. The gn!sping of the land-shorks re- minds one of what the old woman told the THoosier schoolmaster : ** Says I, git & plenty while you're a-gittin’ ; it never'll bono chesper than it is now.’, * * The impression here is, that the older MMor- mons %, 2 WILL GIVE_UP THEIB WIVES 2 in preferonce to giving up their lands and rail- Tonds. It is so comforting to own-some good railroad stock (provided 1t is not Credit Mobil- jer), and 2 man can sit behind it with the same resignation that hie can behind “ fonr aces M oor & * straight flusb.” It socma as if every canon will Lave its own especial railroad, and that ar- ticles of merchandise wil be transported from ono end of the Territory to another with speed &nd safety. Av.GEBRA. JAMES F. WILSON, AND $329. FamrieLp, Towa., March 5, 1873, T the Editor of The Chicago Tribune : Smm:.In an article in yonr paper of Feb. 13, yon class our townsman, J. F. Wilson, among those who received from Oakes Ames tho mysterioua sum of 829. Now, though I was provented from reading all the testimony before the Committée, I think I saw all of it bearing on Mr. Wilson, and I recollect of no evidenco ghorwing that he was in the fashionable class of £320men. On the contrary, T think tho proof is that he paid caeh for his giof:k, end _mever denied his ownership, nor Dflem_p!_&_@ to lie out ike some’of the pthers, “Your gditorial, placing him smong the three hundred and fwenty-niners, doos Mr. W. injus- tice, and anmnflr?gea somg hguraonal enemies in aults upon hin, 3 m?x‘x”?{‘v‘?“-fiiny frionda deeply regret his con- nection with the dirty jobin any way; but, a8 ho was gmong the few who manfally stood up :a What they bad done, aud as ho paid for his stock, Atter an apen and fair purchase of it, his friends, ovon while not justifying all ho did, think i Sofair that your paper should bo guoted by his enomies in proof that be got his stock, like Some of the: ofher Mobiliers, for nothing, £id Szat 2929 for taking it. Did you not do'him in- e the ‘was, the £320 matter brings to my ‘mind a problem that has furnished gome amuse- ‘men for our people, and which may not be with- out interest to some of Tne TRIBUNE readers. A gentleman of our town—a sort of * statis cal case.” who is alvays mousiug. among Dguro, and their powers snd possibilities, and who seems to Luow all that is in them, and to be sble £o bring out of them more, of both fan and fact, than almost auybody clse—has sct our book: Eeepers on a wild hunt for the magic 320. Aver- ring that it is o primo pumber,—that is, thet it is not the multiplo of any other two numbers,— honco that no possiolo wholo or fractional num- ber_of yards, bushels, or pounds of any com- modity, can, at any possible price, in whole number or fractions, amount to $320,—he makos tho allegation fhet the sum of 2329 will not bo found once out of a million entrics on any ledger or collection of figures representing sums of money. He says that hehashad examinations made of many bank-ledgara in Pittsburgh, Salt Lake City, and Des Moines; also, the accounis in our Stata oflicos; and that tho amount ($329) hns never been fonnd; that this order of digits nover ocours, oxceptin the paging of books,or con- sccative numbering of drafts, checks, &e. And then, with upparent gravity and innocenco (thongh we thought that, inan almost imper- ceptiblo twitch of his facial muscle, thero lurked just the ghost of & joke), he called attention to tho most wouderful coincidence, that, from the samo man, Ames, and almost at the same date, six or eight sovernl Congrossmen should havo all wanted to borrow this hitherto unknown sum of $320. " Can any of your Chicago bookkeopers fiud the myatic sam o thoir ledgera? L B M. TREE-PLANTING. ©rnamental Planting on the Avenues and Streets. DY H. W. CLEVELAND, LANDSCAPE GARDNER. The season of - tree-planting is near at band, and the work is onc of such importance in its bearing upon tho beauty and attractivo interest of the streets, that it demands caroful consider- ation and study to enable us to securo its best effects in the reconstruction of the city. Iis rolative valuo s a means of conforring o _char- seter of refined elegance and gracofal digrity upon s city, which cannot bo attained withont such aid by any degreo of srchitectural magnifi- cenco, is admirably expressed in tho following oxtract from Robinson's clarming book, **The Parks, Promouades, and Gardens of Paris “1f not_alrendy the brightest, airicst, and most beautiful of all cities, Parie is in a fair way to become &0 ; and the greatest part of her beauty is due to her gardens and Ler trees. A city of palaces, indeed ; but which is most at- tractive,—the view up that splendid avenue and garden, stretching from tho hieart of _the city to the Arc de Triomphe, or thatof tho finest archi- tectural features of Paris? What would tho now boulevards of white stone be without the Softening aud refreshing aid of thoso long lines of woll-cared for treos that overywhero riso sround the buildings? The makers of now Paris—who deserve the thanks of the inhabi- tants of all the filthy cities in the world for gat~ ting such an examplo—anawer theso quostions for us, by relioving in overy possiblo dircction man’s work in stone with the changeful, and, therefore, ovor-pleasing beauty of vogetable life, Tu Paris, public gardeniug is not con- fined to parks in one end of the town. and ab- ‘sont from the places where it is_most wanted. It follows the street-builders with trecs, turns tho little squares into gardens unsurpassed for good taste and beauty, drops down gracefal fountains here nnd there, and margins them with tlowers ; it presonts to the oyo of tho oorest workinan evory charm of vegotation ; it Lrings him puse sir, and aims directly snd ef- fectively at the recreation and beneflt of tho pegplo.” ‘Tho Paris system of stroct-planting is one which we need hmufl Tope to seo adopted in any of our cities, notwithstanding the obvious fact that it is tho only one by which avy elaborato dosign can bo carried out, or grand effects se- cured. Not only is the whiole worlk of designing and planting nnder the care and supervision of educated landscape-gardeners, but all the trees aud plants ato grovn oxprogsly for the purposo in nurseries belonging to the city, so thatany dosirablo numbor of trocs of whatover variets, may bo had when wanted, of equal size and sym- metrical form. It maybe easily imagined that Dy such means an_effect of diguity sud besnty may be secured, in planting avenues and public places accordivg to _carefully- opared designs, which is utterlyZunattains- lo by the hnp-hazard method which we prac- tise,-of evory man planting what he pleases on tho front of his own lot. Tho resnlt, of courso, is & hoterogeneous mixture, Ono man pays largely for _ fow great trecs brought from the forest, which often fail to recover from the shoek ‘of removal, and even if they live, present s meagre, sickly appearanco which can never give pleasure to anyone. His next neighbor pro- cures smaller trees from the nursory, and plants half-a-dozen on a space which one or two would sufico to fill, and the consequence is they very soon crowd ech other to such s degreo as to do- stroy all beauty of individual specimens. Another _ plants _ evergreens inside his fenco, which, beforo they are hmif grown, will bo crowding their branches into his Windows on ono side, and infringing upon iho sidewalk on the other. Then thero will be long gaps, where no trees ot all aro planted. Yet, Svon'with all theso defects, which are insepara: blo from such an utterly unsympathetic way of doing tho work, the eppesrance of verdure, iu Joolang up or down a sireet, gives it a look' of rofined clogance, tho want of which cannot be supplied by richness of architecture, and, 18 it is too much to hope that free-born Americans ill surrender the Tight of planting what they leaso on their own_grounds, it is all the more important that s kuowledge of the general principles of planting, to insre satisfactory resnlts, should be 28 widely disseminated as possible. . "Aud, inasmuch o8 overy tree in the b dis- trict of Chicago was destroyed, it is obvious that the work of replanting sssumes an importance proportionste to the extent of the calamity. - fifny atreots and portions of streots which beforo the fire were occupicd solely as residence quarters, will henceforth be given up to busi- ness, and will probably never be replanted with troes. Dut, on the other hand, the residence quartors afe extending in corresponding ratio on streets and ayenues which have heretoforo ‘been vacant, and _every man who is building, or who owns 8 building sito, shonld bear in mind that there is no way in which he can do 8o much to render it attractive, and contribute to the gonerally refined character of the neighborhe &t 80 small cost, as Dy the tasteful planting an management of tho few feet of gronud within ‘his control. Let us now consider the field we have to work upon, and tho best moans of development of tho Tesources at our command. Chicago bas prob- 2bly 3 greater extent than any city in the Union of broad streots and avenues, the residences on Which aro set back ten, fifteon, twenty, or more, foot from the sidewalk. Onsome of the avonues the sidewalks are so wide thata doublo row of troes is sometimes_attempted, but never with good rosults ater the_trees begin to sppronch maturity, a8 tho inside row must alwayy bo cramped nnd shaded between the houses and the outer row of trees, and can never become well- developed specimens. Quly a eingle row abould bo set, and thoso generally at much gronter Qistance apart thax they are nsually plantod. Of this, and of the kinds of trecs to plant, I propose to speak hereafter. The gidewalks of our beat sirents and nvenues aro fifteen or twenty,— £ ‘some cases twenty-five foot wide. Then comes - an area of perhaps equal width botwaen the sidewalk and_tho rosidouco, Thi area” mi ht, in slmost every instance, be made to contribufe quite as much to the beauty and clegance of tho strect as the bm_ldmgu which line it, and at the same time furnish tho most stiractive setting and finish to the buildings themselves, yet this capacity is utterly and in- Varinbly destroyed by the necdlesa habit of in- closing them with & ‘wooden or iron fenos. Let any one walk through cither of tho best resi- dence avenues of the city, and direct ‘his atton- tion to the infinite variety of inclosures of the areas in front of tho houses,—the endless fidoous patterns of iron-work, some newly- ereoted and rigidly straight, others wabbling ont of line and more_or less dilapidated,—then fho varioties of woodwork pickets and rails,— Gome white, - some brown, Some Dewly- painted, and somo shabby ' with ago and Pegloct—and_ then the sbomipations in Iodtation of stone, which, in 8 few yoars, become rickety, and sra all the moro of- Jonsive for their prefonded’ solidity, which de- ceives ‘nobody. ‘ge Lave become 80 accustomed fo these deformitiés, and Liave 8o long consid- ered them aa neccssitios, that’ very tew faoy_}e fiave ever thought of how much wd should gain by getting rid of them. But I askcany citizon of Clibago, who Lins s becoming sendb of the local pride, which in oply an enlargoment of hia self- respect, to bear the subjeot mming, as he walks or rides through our begt residence streets, and judge for himeelf if I have stated tho caso too Gtrongly. Let him start on Wabash avenuo, eay from Fourteenth street, and go south, and then from it into either of the other avguucs, east of i6-and evorywhero Lio will £ca thst whatever et- tractive appearsnss (ke strcet may possess is in spite of, und ‘mot in _consequenco Of, the - fences and railings. which inclose the front reas. They are unsightly in themselves, moet protensions aud most 80 when they maks seelng, to be fine ;—they hide whatever is worth gither of nature or srtificial decoration within the area. and by confining aad shading the very Timited space which is susceptible of cultivation, they provent the possibility of uch floral decora: tion as might otberwise beintroduced in an al- most endless variety of forms, conferring upon the street, at a cost far less than is expended upon tho fences, the character of a continuous series of beds of brilliaat flowers, or soft green sod, or freali-looking flowering shrubs. If any one desires to help his imagination to conceive the effect of temo\'in%:he area ‘railings, let him goJup Prairie avenus to No. 924, betwecn Eight~ eenth and Twentieth streets, and study the as- pect of the place in its present condition. The curbing has becn laid, preparatory, I resume, for tho recugllun of arailing of some kind, but it is hard to believe that anyone can fail {o see how mnch more beautifulitis in its present condition than any of its neighbors, With thetr costly inclosures, aud this notwith’ atanding the fact that nothing has yet been done to the ground, which should be graded and nice- Iy sodded even with tho top’ Of tho curbing. Snupposo that this arrangement wore sdoptod throughout the street, and it is casy to sce that ita breadth and elegance would be increased in & degree that cannot be messured_or described, while the saving in_cost would be enormoas. The simplest kind of wooden paling, with the necessary posts, could hardly be put upona twenty-five foot lot for less than 840, and the cheapest iron fence wonld cost 2100. A considerstion of the.objections which will present themsolves to this arrangement, would oxtend this_ article to too great alengtl, snd I reserve their discussion till my noxt. Meantime, I trust that thoso who are interested will con- sider the subjoct, concerning_which, for the present, T will add only this: Enormous sums ‘wero spent, until recently, on fences for inclos- ing cemetery lots. They have now been uni- versally banished, as being only noedloss do- formitics. Within s very recent period, tho costly iron fences have boon removed from all the public sguares snd ornamontal grounds within the city of New York, and the effect has been an almost inconceivable increase of their attractive besuty. The fact is gradually forcing its way into peoplos’ minds that fonces, of any kind, and any whers, are at best & necessary evil; that the necessity is not nearly as frequent 2 Lo heretofore been supposed, and where an inclosuro is indispensable, it should be as simpla aud inconspicuous 8s possible. = " GRAIN-INSPECTION. To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune : Sim: Will you allow md a few words in reply to * Gradgrind,” and regarding the inspection of grain in Chicago. To many on "Change, it Jooks as if “Gradgrind” had a protty close, if not & personal, interest in the present Inspoctors of grain; ond that to continue their office he soeks to shield the officials from censure, and, at the same time, to prevent any change in the Jaw undor which they Lold office.

Of courge lie has o perfect right to perpetuate, if Bosaml,, Tis own or his friend's term of ofiice; nt Iwould suggest to *Gradgrind” that Le ‘Las not pursued a course that is calculated to do away with tle objections to tho law undor which he or his friend, as Inspector, is obliged to work. One of tiwo things is true : oithier the law itself is wrong, or the Chief In- spector is incapablo and inefiicient ; for never was there such complaint regarding inspection of grain here as there has beon during the last twelve months. “ Gradgrind " mentions with satisfaction that tho receipts of grain here havo incroased largely within the last two years, and he attributes the increasa to tho fact that the grain is inspected Dy the State, andnot by the Board of Trade, as formerly. Let me tell ““ Gradgrind™ that the receipts of grain have incressed, not in conso- quonce of the inspection, but in spite of it. I can show him scores of letters from parties in Towa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Nebrasks, to the effoct that thoy would like to ship their grain fo this _ markot; but, on ac- Count ‘of our inspection, thoy canmot. Every receiver of grain hero will tell you that thoussnds and thousands of bushelsof grain are diverted weckly from this to other markets, simply and solely on account of our inspection. As woll might ¢ Gradgrind” attribate the in- croase in the receipts of hogs here, tho last two yoars, to the fact that the Stato inspects tho in that reaches us, a8 to make the statements o docs. The inspoction of provisions and pork is done under the immediate control of the Board of Trade, and * Gradgrind” will pleass “point ™ to the fact that our recelpts of hogs in 1872 were 3,488,628, against less than 2,000,000 in 1870 ! You have not the space, nor I the time, for an enumeration of_cases of hardship and wrong that occur in & single day in the inspection of in in this city. Permit me, bowever, to 8ay that 8o serious are the complaints, and 80 griev- ous are the burdens inflicted by the present law, that a change must bomade in'it. I understand that the ofiicers of the Board of Trade are almost daily besieged to take stops initiatory to tho Board’s resuming the inspection of grain, Thoreis but littje doubt such action will bo taken, if the Legislataro does not grant reliof from tho injustice of the present law, by pro- viding for the appointment of a commission or committee to whom aa appeal from the decision of an Inspactor can be made, and if other neoded changes in tho law are not mado. ‘CoUNTRY CoMMISSION MEBCHANT.
