2 INTERESTING FROM UTAH TERRITORY. Grand Celebration of the Fourth of Jaly— How the Eastern Brethren Treat the La~ dies—Threatenings of the Governor. ‘We have received files of the Salt Lake Deseret News to ‘he first of August, from which we give the following ex- ‘tmacte:— Asaociate Justice W. W. Drummond and his lady have ‘arrived at Sait Lake City. ‘The News of the 15th July says:—The weather since Whe latter part of May has been very warm, and, with but few oxceptions, very sunny, making the air and ground dry and hot, and the streams very low,.thus esusing the loss of much of the small portion of grain and vegetables left by the grasshoppers. On the 14th of July, while bathing im the pond near Eider Jas, Bennett’s house, in Bishop Wm. Kay’s ward, Brother Frederick Robbins, aged 25 years, 3 months and ‘9 days, was accidentally drowned. He was the son of Hamond and Elizabeth Robbins, and late from Chelten- ham, England, ‘The Surveyor General for Utah, David H. Burr, arrived m'this city on the 27th June. He left Fort Leavenworth enighe 2d of June, and camped with Captains Haight’s Miller's compantes on the Blue, furty-five miles be- yend Fort Kearney, all well. Mr. Burr reports having Zeon but few Iniians On the route, and hud no trouble with them. The massive foundations of the Temple were finished July 23, and the workmen are progressing rapidly with ‘the stone wall of the basement story. Hon. J. M. Bernhisel has been again nominated as a eandidate for delegate to Congress. No opposition. In announcing Mr. Bernhisek af its favorite candidate, the Bows says:— Tele customary in'the States, when a paper hoists its fing in favor of a nominee to an important office, to black- ard every other aspirant to the same station, and laud Fithe abies its own candidate. This singular, unwise, st, and rabid course is happily entirely unnecossary in Utah, as our faith, policy, and politics are one, at least with tew, if any, exceptions. Furthermore, it is universally known that the Saivts Srmly believe in selecting upright, honorable, trustwor- ‘thy, able and proven men for offices of trust and respon- albility, and we personally know frém long acquaintance fhat Dr, Bernhisel possesses these qualitications in an eminent degree, and for this cause he received the nomi mation and unanimous vote of the large assembly whic? met in this city on the 4th inst. to celebrate the anni- versary of the Declaration of Independence, and will, at the ensuing clection, receive the unanimous vote of Uta. he election tor delegate members of the Territorial ture and county officers was to take place on the of August. The coping ‘stone i laid upon three-cighths of the wall avound the ‘Temple block, and the workmen have com- ‘menced plastering the norihern face of the adobe portion #f the north line. Mhe stone foundation of the new Historian office, oppo- site the Tithing office, is receiving its stone water table, and will soon be ready for the adobe layers. President 8. Young’s large dwelling house is progress- dog rapidly; the walls, chimneys and root. timbers are all ‘wp, and the very tasteful granite and polished sundatone portico at the south end is ready for the handsomely ‘earved stone lion which is to surmount it. ‘This building ww just west of the Governor's new mansion, both of sath, together with the President's ard Tithing office and the Governor's office, are built upon the southeas omer of the block east of the Templo block. The Fourth of July was celebrated in grand style in Great Salt Lake City. We give the account of the cere- monies entire from the News:— Hay Past Four, A. M.—Ere the morning star had becn able to announce the presence of the king of day to the fababitants of this peaceful vale, the serenity ani qui- etude of the morning at this erly hour, gave way to the simultaneous music of the bands, ringing of bells, firing of eannon, and hoisting of colors. Captain! D. Ballo’s band was btationed on the observatory of the Governoc’s mansion, where was unfurled the territorial flag of Utah; fhe Nauvoo Brass Band on the balcony of Major Gener Grant's house, with their unique baaner; and the Martial Bug on the observatory of the Counell Mouse. Cannon med on the Temple Block, where a mammoth U. 8. was hoisted. ‘rom T. 8, Williams & Co.’s new flagstaT was untarled the stars and stripes, and from cach window of the two upper stories hung out beautiful and appropriate mot- wes. First, Unity, represented by a bundle of sticks— “We are one,” edged with blue. Second, Utah Courage; “A Hon on the ale:t—the spirit of '76,"? bordeved with ved. Third, “Poace reigns here’’—lion and lamb, edged with pink. ’ Fourth, ‘the Mormons defend the roc! rock in the ocean and the constitution lying on it ean prevail aguinst it? —e¢ ged with green. Filth, a hand veaching from the clouds, giving a scroll beating the words, “Constitution of the U. S.-Woe to its violutor®’” —edged in purple. Sixth, “The Clerks’ Own—four quar- fers to the friends of the Union; no quarter to its eae- mies” —edged in blue velvet.

Large red. flag im front, with white letters, “July 4, 1776.’ ‘Hail! thé birthday of American freedom.” Blue fiag on the top of the “State of Deseret.” White flag on with motto, “The Constitution, 178: “The Declaration of Inlependence, Mags, with mottoes, “Liberty or Deat zoeans, and plenty the result.”” The ttores of Messrs, Howard, Goddard, Townsend, Mixon, ktewart, Jurvis and Hockaday, hoisted our na: tional colors, which also floated from the observatory of Gol. J.C. Little's residence. At the front of Mr. God- dards were hung several elegant banners; also at ‘Mhomas & Pughe’s; and at Mr. Hockaday’s, 1776" was executed in massive silver, encircied with stars. ‘The morning was beautiful, and wien the king of day emerged from bebind owr snow-capp’d mountains, un- immed by a single cloud, the scene was lovely to behold. ‘Zhe eye and the ear were charmed, and the heart was made sensibly to fecl that our Heavenly Father had powr- ed out upon the inhabitants of Utaha large portion of his with which he endowet our fathers, by the influ ence of which they had declared their independence, and scorned to submit to injustice and oppression. Thirteen pounds of cannon fired, bells rang one hour, and bands eontinued playing until 6 A. M. Brent A. M.—The Nauvoo Tegion began to form. con- eentrating near the Council House. The escort of the Go: vernor and suite formed east of the Council House.

The following is an extract} from Governor Brigham ‘Young's acidress in the Tabernacle on the 8th of July — You know that almost every time that Gentiles ad reas us in public they are very mindful to caution the Latter Day Saints ‘ not to fght—now don't (ight.”” Haye we ever wanted toYight them © vat we have wanted 40 {0 then the gospel of pes ry way, ‘We are atraid that you.

What did they do when I introduced them toa wife, a daughter, or a sister, with all the grace, po- lteness ind Kindness that could be expected, from any man? As quick as my back was turned, it would be Miss, or Madam, I want to get into bed with you, “Look here, you come to my office, won't yout Ihave a good bed there.’’ I willeut the matter short and ask once for all, did they return the compliment, and without exception re- ciprocate the kindness and’ courtesy with whieh the were invariably met? No, they did not, at least not al of them, for several returned evil for good, and intro- duced wickedness and corruption into our midst, and the Lord knows that we already had enough of that to con- tend with. Past experience has taught the brethren that in fu- ture it will probably be the best policy to let soldiery quarter by themselves, and I am perfectly willing. If persons come here and behave like gentlemen, they shali enjoy their rights, and we will enjoy ours or fight to the death. Let the laws of the United States be hen- ored, and the laws of the individual States, and we will do ar the Kingdom of God will do—protect everybody in their rights. ‘The experience of the last winter has taught us a lesson, and we hope it has taught the people gene- Fally a lesson. Tam troubled all the time with “Bro. Brigham,” and “Pres. Young,” “I do love you, Pres. Young,” when at the same time some ‘who vse such expressions will have one arm round my neck loving me dearly, and the other around the neck of a scoundrel, trying. to get Christ and Belial together; this Leannot endure. y AFA man will keep a grog shop and permit wickedness to fester around him, or do anything elae that is contra- 1y to the Christian religion taught in the New Testament, Teay to all such, either stop it, or take your propert and leave, for oor laws do not tolerate it, ana we will put them ‘in force against you. As to again suffering the wickedness and misrule of foul spirits that come into our midst, and are treated by us as gentlemen, I will not. I will say to such official gentlemen as tell and boast “what the general government is going to do,” or Ccvhat they themselves will do,” or “what they want to do,” thinking to terrify the Latter Pay Saints, that you may as well undertake to terrify the Almighty on‘his throne as to terrify a Latter Day Saint of the true stripe, and who has the true blood in Pelow is an extract from another address delivered by the Governor in the Tabernacle on the 17th July:— We want none of their money, and if they are not dis- posed to send it here, I care nothing about their money’s coming; and this proves to me, and should to you, that I do not bout a man’s getting one dime appropriated to this Territory, But we will send a delegate who will do no burt; and if it were not that the hue and ery of “treason against the general government” would be made, we would not send a delegate at all; or were it not that they would say, “Now you have proof sufficient that the Mormons mean’ to secede from the Union, as they legate;”? and thus hatch up a pretext for commencing fiesh hratilities against It-has been observed that the people where Judge Douglas resides say to him, “What are you going to co with Utah? We hope you will do wmething to put down this odious doctrine, for they will have more women than one, and they will ‘acknowledge them openly.” (I am now talking in acco;dance with their practice.) “We Want to hire our women in the dark, and pay them a few dimes or dollars, use them as long &s we wish, and then Kick them out of doois. But the Mormons’ will own them, give them their name, acknowledge tneir children, and educate them.”? ‘There is one great difference between the Mormons and the Gentiles,and upon natural princi ples—that is,to out- ward appearance—in reality all the difference there is though we are laying a foundation for another state of being. Are they men of virtuous character who talk so about the Mormons having more wives than oue? How odious it was last winter, in the sight of certain mon who were here, to think that we had more lawful wives than one; yet they would creep into your houses, and try to coax your wives and daughters away from you. What for? “Was it to make them more honorable, to give them a better character in the midst of the inhabitants of the earth, custain them better, and make them more com- fortable, and acknowledge them? No; they wanted to prostitute them, to ruin them and ‘end them to the grave, or to the devil, when they had done with them. Ido not know what I shall say next wintec if such men make their appearance here as were some last winter. I know whut I think I shall say if they play the same game again. Let the women be ever 60 bad, so help me God, we will slay them. If_ any wich to go to California we will send @ company of them off. That is iy wind; and perhaps some few ought to go, for they are indeed bad enough. There are some things 1 learned when I was in the south country lately, which Ido not wish to mention, be- cause of the friends of those girls who are gone; but when they passed throngh the southern settlements they were weeping all the time, und they are perhaps now fo their graves. The men who coaxed them away did not intend to take them to California.

Eleven of St. Ceorge’s Club on Thursday played fourteen of New Brighton, at Staten Island, on their ground, near Snug Harbor. St. George, according to expectation, won, though at one time the game looked in favor of New Brighton; however, it was no dirgrnee to be beat by the first eleven of St George—they played well for it, and won the first innings, The groand was visited during the @ay by the clite of the island, and looked quite gay. The St. George’s were most bountifully entertained by the New Brighton members, and all passed a most pleasant day. Messrs. Tower and Sam Wright were umpires, and Mr, Goddard scored. ‘The St. George commenced the sport, and played bad the first innings, getting poor «cores all round, The se- cond innings was commenced by Pyne and Co » to the bowling of Bradley and Livingston.’ Bradley soon settled both of them, and Gibbes and Bingham got together and looked like ibischief—but the latter, after making two singles and a good leg hit for 3, got_ stumped by Bradley the bowler, very cleverly. | R. Waller took hls place, and him and Gibbes. played beautifully. Waller made five twos and two threes, when Rogers closed on him. commenced with a single and a good double to the leg, and with Gibbes sadly bothered them—they changed their Dowling from Livingston to Neville and Vyse, who at last sent, Lage away. 't. Waller played very ‘nicely for short life--he played one good forward drive for 2, but 2 Kine on the turt caught the ball and scnt it om’ to his wickets, Johnson followed, and directly after, Givbes, who had run up his score to 60, sont a ball into Rogers handa at long field. Gibbes played as usual, made some beautiful leg hits—he scored 8 twos, 6 threes and a four. Jobnson followed Gibbes’ example, Hindbangh and Brown were unfortunate, The St. George went out for 181 rung, leaving New Brighton 119 to get. New righton commenced theie second innings with Routh ond Emmet—they both soon got closed on by R. Waller for four runs. Vyse is the only old cricketer in the club; all the others axe new hands; and right well did they play. Vyse is a good bowler as well as batter—he mude o good hit to the off, a to the Tong leg. | Rainaford, i ood straight hit, and one , who has some ericketiog’ in made his 19 very prettily-—one a good forward drive and a capital leg hit for 2, F, Routh has a good of batting. Vyse secms afraid of opening, or he would have made some slashing hits; liad he been put on enins—for nearly all of these contain hovght which would have a tendency to ‘iscoutemt among slaves if publicly promul AN ACT TO EXEMPT SLAVES FROM SALE UNDER EXE- CUTION.

Avo the people to be told that they are entilled to ‘receive our favors?” Is it fraud to prevent the houschold servants of the young bride from being sold to pay the debts of her profii- ate husband?

Morrivania was too strong for them; although they are a young club, they have some old cricketers among them.

M. Quotations show a slight advance to-day. Erie and Reading were the two leading stocks at the first board, and both improved. There was a little more activity this morning in Western railroad stocks, and some of them realized better prices. Indiana 5’s went up } per cent ; Nicaragua Transit, 1; Erie Railroad, 3; Cleveland and Toledo, } ; Cumberland, 3; Reading Railroad, 4; Galena, and Chicago, }. ‘The bulls are out with considerable force to-day, in fayor of Cleveland and Toledo, and we should have been with them but for the crowded state of our colamns. We have had in type several days a com- munication which will be found below, and but for the want of room would have appeared this morn: ing. Itis perhaps unfortunate that we could not have been with our cotemporaries, on this subject; put hope that those interested will carefully ex- amine the figures of our correspondent, and weigh well his conclusions. We shall give this company more attention as soon as we get the official receipts for Angust. Our estimate of earnings for that month was 350,000. We are anxious to see how far that figure ‘is from the fact. In about sixty to ninety days, the bull organs will see why the Cleveland and Toledo Railroad was selected from the long list of Ohio roads, and its firances so closely analysed. It had reached a price in this market so far beyond ita real value that, outsiders were in danger of being brought into an investment which would have entailed heavy losses, and repeated warnings were necessary to prevent such unfortunate results. Erie is still going up, notwithstanding the unfavorable exhibits of its nine months business, The gross earnings for September may be full as large as anticipated—$600,000—but when we get the net result, the exhibit will be very different. ‘The interest account of the Erie Railroad this year, will be about $200,000 greater than that of last. This alone requires an increase in gross earnings of $400,000, allowing only fifty per cent for operating expenses. Reading was firm at the close this morning, and the stock was in demand. The bears do not appear at all intimidated by th’ reports of big dividends, large earnings, &c. Galena and Chicago closed firm at 112, buyers 60 days. The es- timated earnings of the road for August, was $150 - 000. The actual earnings were $206,000. for t @ month. Increase over estimate $56,000.

At the second board the market was more buoyant, and nearly every stock on the list advanced. Canton Company went up #per cent; Nicaragua Transit, §; Reading Railroad, 3. Erie fell off } per cent.

This, with ull the ‘con- nections” which have been made since last year, is not a very favorable result. Our estimate was $50,000, and we did not come very wide of the mark, Our estimate for September is $65,000. The receipts of the Milwaukie and Mississippi Railroad for August amount to $54,715 61, against $32,324 08 in August, 1854, which is an increase of over 70 per cent. The carnings for the eight months of the current year amount to $357,450 62, against $243,392 16 in the corresponding month of last year, which is an increase of $114,068 46. The whole re- ceipts of 1854 were $465,051 19; and the directors estimated those of 1855 at $571,980.

The Rockland is doing finely. The Isle Royale, at Portage Lake, has already sent forward over 200 tons, and will, beyond doubt, get near 300 tons for he year. This will give the Isle Royale about $100,000 to cover expenses, not estimated above $60,000 at the highest.

The estimates are upon no better data than others possess, who arrive at very different conclusions. ‘We give the writer the full benefit of our columns for the purpose of placing before the public his views relative to the future productiveness of that road:— Tue CLEVELAND AND ToLEDo Roan. 1 wish to state once more, through your columns, tho present state of this road, and its prospects in the fature. All the great lines of ratlroad between the East and the West, between the Atlantic and the Missiesipi, must, of necessity, be profitable roads, All future time will work for them, and the gigantic settlements going on in TMlinois, Jowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Kansas and Ne- braska, must guarantee an amount.of business of which no one now entertains an idea. nonss ee most expea- , sively built and the worst 1 in the end pa; provided they occupy a part of bs great highway to the mighty Wer Even the New York Central, with its papitel of forty millions, and a straight line of 290 miles, isa good road and will improve. In the same way i assert that the Cleveland and Toledo, with a straight line of 109 miles, and a capital of six millions four hun- dred thousand dollars, is a good road, and will be, as soon ax some sonnecting lines are completed, a road of the very first class. Let us consider first the position of the road. It lies on the great highway between four most. {important points—Buflalo and Cleveland to the east, and Chicago and St. Louis to the west. The yast food of travel which pours over the Ocucral, terminating at Buf- ich pours SY ie Erie on one handy sand tie Heo ‘which pours over the Michigan Scuthern and the Wabash and Erie on the other, must pass over this road. From Cleveland to Chicago it is hy this ronda straight line, and from Cleveland to St. Louis it isalso a straight line within a fraction. Every: thing now centres at Cleveland to go West to these gceat points. The Cleveland and Muhoning road will soon be completed, which will bring the travel_fvom Philadelphia to Cleveland; and soon the great line of road from the St. Louis to Toledo will be finished, opening to this last Place, and centering ut it not only the travel frown t. Louis, but from or four roads running into this freat branch line from the latiereity. As soon as this ranch line is completed, the Cleveland and Toledo road will be to all intents an es a continuation of St. Louis and Toledo road, as it now is of the Chicago ani Toledo road (called the Michigan Southern). If these are tobe both good roads, what must the Cleveland and To- jedo Let us state the drawbacks to the Cleveland ani To- Jedo:—Ist. It has a se:ond branch eighty-cight miles long; but there is a great way travel over this track, and it is @ continuation of the Dayton and Cincinnati roads. The local business on this branch will pay running ex- penses, and seven per cent interest at loast upon its stock and bonds. It is no more an injury to this road than the road from Syracuse to Auburn and Canandaigua is an in- jury to the New York Central. 2d. It has the compe tition of the Lake for four monihs in the year for passen- gers and six months for freight. It has also, as rozards the travel to Chicago, the competition of the Canada road and the Michigan Ceniral ; this source of competition does not affect it more than the Erie affects the New York Central, With this competition, itis ® good road; without it, it would be one of the very first roads in the country. ‘We eannot expect every advantage united in one line; we must be contented at the present day with a good thing; there are too many competing lines for auy exclusive monopoly. But Ict us look at facts and figures; they are sure things to go by. Let us see whether the road will not pay 10 per cent at present; the reader can then judge what it will do when the great line to St. Louis ix completed, and the air line to Chicago opened. The Cleveland and Toledo pays its dividends on the 1st of April and October. . Ite fiscal year then begins on the Ist of April. The receipts frou the Ist April to Ist of October this year will be $214,000, estimating Augast at $50,000 and September at $80,000, which ate low osti- males. ‘Ihe receipts last year, for tho same period, were $292,000—increase 45 per cent. The receipts from (cto- ber fo April last year were $143,000; if wo add the same rate of increase to the reccipts of the next six months, beginning on the Ist October, we shall have $642,000. This is a low estimate, when we consider the immense crop which is coming off, and the opening of some 200 miles of the Wabash and Frie road. These two items give as the total receipts of the current year $1,056,000, Deduct in- terest on $3,500,000 bonds, which is $245,000, and we have a& gross receipts, $811,000. So far, there is not the least exopgeration: infact, we have underrated, in our opinion, the result. The next question is, What will the ran ning expenses bey They will not ia any case exevod 50 percent. The President, one of the most experienced men in railroads in this country, states positively that they will not exceed 45 per cent.” Of this, we haye our elves no doubt. Deduct this per centage from the to‘a! income of $1,056,000, and we have $475,009. Deluct thie amount from $811,000, and we haye as net income. £236,000, to be divided on $2,000,000 of stock—that is to fay, 10 yer cont, au o surplus of $45,000 ine road has # floating debt of $192,000; it has oa hand cash assets, $240,000. Such are the facts in rela- tion to this road? ft is a good 10 per cent road at present, and will have all the future working for it. Whoever Las faith in our great Fastern and Western ines of roa‘ls, cannot fail to have faith in this. It is an integral part of those roads, and nothing can turn the travel trom it. A.B.
