OFFICIAL PAPLIt OF TIIE COl'STlf. THE 3IORMONS.

SATURDAY MORNING, AUGI'ST M. ISM.

the Agricultural Society of this count} was

arc informed that it was well attended and gave evidence that the farmers of our coun

ty had taken hold of it in earnest with the

determination of making it succeed, and we have no doubt but that our first county fair

will compare favorably with any'of our neighboring counties, many of whom have

had for years organized societies.

We have not been furnished with the offi

cial proceedings but have learned that the 'list and rate of premiums was adopted,

embracing nearly all of the industrial pur

suits, articles and products, both agricultural

and mechanical, and the rate of the pre

miums though not large, are such as to show the financial concerns of the society

to be in a flourishing condition, the largest being 810,00 and ranging from that on

down to suit the degree and importance of

the article premiumed.

We understand that the list of manufactured articles are confined to such as arc

made in the county, and that to all who are

members of the society the premiums are open without any other charge than their

members fee, and all others who desire to

present articles for exhibition, can do so by paying to the Treasurer of the society, the

fee of J? 1,00, being the amount required of

each member for one year. It is infinitely

better for all who wish to compete for pre

miums to become members, as they then secure all the benefits of the society for one

year for what it will cost to enter for the

premiums, and we shall be glad to see all

of our farmers and the mechanics take an

active part in this matter. The fair is to be held on the last Wednesday of September,

so that we can show our hand before the

state fair. The Prudential committe will

TIIE NEW LIQUOR LAW EXPLODED. It is currently reported through our ex

changes, that the Supreme Court has deci

ded the Liquor Law of this State unconstitutional. If this be the case, liquor sellers

have only to procure license as heretofore, and continue to sell without hinderenee.

NEW ARRANGEMENT.— We understand

'•that arrangements have been made, and the Covington stage hereafter will run in

connection (tri-weekly) with the cars from

this plpce to Indianapolis. The stage from 'Covington will arrive here in time to take

.the cars for Indianapolis every Monday,

Wednesday and Friday mornings, leaving on the same days in the evening immedi

ately after the arrival of the cars from Indi

anapolis.

A Sox KILLED nvt"ms FATHKH.—The Clin

ton Republican, published at Wilmington, Ohio, records the murder of a son by the

hands of his father, in Wilson township in that county. The father's name is Reuben

Mills, and his son was forty years old and

blind. old. The wretched father struck his son

with his fist, knocking him from his chair

on the floor, and breaking his neck. The

old man was arrested the next day, and held to answer at the no:t term of court, in

the sum of 8500, and in default of which

he was committed to jail

IIOUIUHLE.—The Racine Democrat says,

a Mrs. Bratton, formerly of Milwaukie, who

had been sick for some time, died in a horrible state. The whole family were drunk

at the time, and for some days before, and

the deceased lay on the floor in a state of nudity for several days. Her husband,

when drunk, knocked his idiot child senseless, and it was proved on the coroner's ju

ry that he had been guilty of incest with his

eldest daughter. lie is also suspected of murdering his wife, but a post mortem ex

amination showed no signs of violence.

M.vHUIAGE REGULATIONS.—Archbishop

Kendrick was holding the metropolitan

archepiscopal see of Baltimore in the Ro

pastoral letter, relating chiefly to the ceremonials of marriage. It provides that here

after no marriage shall be solemnized by

Catholic authority without the previous publication of the bans recommends the

solemnization of the marriage in church at an earlv hour in the morning, so that it

may be followed by mass and cautions

Catholics against marriage with those not

belonging to the faith.

DECISION IN A LIQUOR CASE.—Judge

Manchester, of Providence, (It. I.) has giv

testified that he purchased the liquor for

the purpose of having the defendant convic

go upon the stand and swear uxaultingly

that he had induced the defendant to commit the crime for the purpose of having an

opportunity to swear against him—that it took away the safeguard which the law had

thrown around the citizen for his protection,

I have no doubt that there will be some

Gerrymandering perpetrated and our city

offers a fair field for such kind of party

tactics. Mr. Buchanan leaves to-day in the At

Resolved, That while we deeply lament the loss that his heartstriken friends are made to sustain, and while we much need and highly appreciate his active co-opera-tion and unfailing ardor in promoting the cause of "Truth, Love, Purity and Fidelity" in our midst, yet we will humbly acquiesce in this solemn dispensation of an allwise, but inscrutable Providence.

Resolved, That while we deeply sympathize with the friends of the departed Bro. Yet we can only commend to Ilim who hath a "balm for every wound" and who hath promised "tliat as thy day, so shall thy strength be."

Resolved, That as an humble token of the deep sorrow we have in our Brother's death, and as an expression of our warm admiration for his many manly virtues, that we wear the usual badge of mourning for the space of thirty days.

A CLAN OF ROBBERS IN INDIANA. I? A correspondent of the Louisville Democrat, from Hope, Bartholomew county, Ind.,

under date of July 31st, gives an account ofthe captute of Dan'l Ricketts, who is lodg

ed in the Oreencastlc, Ind., jail. He is charged with beini the ringleader of bandoo of marauders.

"A Mr. Stark was robbed, and from ?i" combination of circumstances, suspicion rested on Dr. Henry B. Smollev, and student in his office, but they had borne unblemished reputations in the community, and it was not believed they could be guilty. Tlw doctor was a leading member in the Mcth-. odist-church—Son of Temperance, etc,, and it was considered 'treason' almost to suspicion him of a mean action. "However, the people persisted in tlu ir belief,-and hunted up the doctor and his student. Harrison, the student, was found at Indianapolis, and taken back to Milford, Ind., and tried. He there turned State's evidence. He said he had belonged to the clan about four months. That hc knew the names of nineteen or twenty of the clan that being a new member he was not fullv entrustcd with their secrets. He sai4 that Dr. Smolley had lied to Iowa. Th« authorities are now in pursuit of him. "Hi: also informed them that Daniel Ricketts, in company with Smollev, robbed Mr. Droneberger of his money. Ricketts ran off with the money to Harrison, and lie took it to Dr. Stogdell, at Monrovia, in Morgan county, Ind., who took it further and exchanged it for gold, and then returned and divided the gold among the clan. "Smolley had many communications among his papers that divulged their secrets. These papers are now in the hands of proper officers. Thev name as some of their intended victims, Lewis Winslip, who resides about four miles from Hope, Ind.— Also a Mr. Chambers, on the Flat Rock, and an old gentleman by the name of Snyder, near St. Omer, Ind".: also Lewis Sny- 'v der, at Milford, Ind., and several others. "It is supposed that this clan numbers many more whose names have not vet been -riven."

3IOXFY AND liAILKOAI) STOCKS. The New York Post of the 5th inst., speaking of the pressing in the money market of that city, says that the banks are the great cause of present trouble in Walt' street. Their influence is of the most vicious nature, and thcir want of harmony increases the evil. Every day this week they have been running each other for gold, and some of them must be wofullv deficient in this necessary basis for banking.

The Matron of the Asylum, who saw the actions of the ladv, knew there was something wrong, and she went to the basket to see what it contained. She found an infant asleep, seemingly but. a few days old. Pursuit was made after the old lady, who being caught, was interrogated as to who and where the mother s.

The old lady replied, that the mother was a young lady of fifteen years, whose father was boarding at one of our first hotels that she came to her house several weeks ago, and gave her money to take the child, which she did, to get rid of it, and that the reputed father of the child was among our first citizens. The old ladv, in charge of officer Davidson, took the child back to her house 011 liittenhouse street, and gave the child to its mother, who very reluctantly took it, alleging that she would be ruined if she kept it. The child was eight days old, and the mother states that her father ordered that the child should be put away. By request we keep back the names of the parties.

REMOVAL FOK CAUSE.—The Washington correspondent of the Cleveland Plain Deal

er AVrites in that paper as follows, concern

ing certain removals from office: "A Democratic clerk was removed today, and others will follow in his footsteps if they do not change materially for the better.
