TUESDAY........SEPTEMBER 28, 1869. ===== THROUGH THE FAR WEST ----- XI. ----- SALT LAKE VALLEY AND CITY. ----- Early Mormon Settlement—Their Privations and Endurance—The Wonderlul Change in the Valley— Its Improvements and Productiveness—Location and Beauty of the City—A snow Storm on the Mountains—The Good Order of the City. ----- Editorial Correspondence.] SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. 18. Our former Utah correspondent, "Beadle," last year wrote at length of Salt Lake City and this valley, and of the Mormon faith and its influences; but at the risk of repeating what has already appeared in the JOURNAL and been seen by our readers repeatedly in other papers, I will write of some of the things I have seen and heard, and the impressions I have received in my brief visit to this Territory. What first impresses the traveler, in his ride down the east side of the valley of Great Salt Lake and in this city, is the wonderful transformation which has taken place on the face of nature since the Mormons entered the Territory. In 1847, when the first colony of Mormon pioneer explorers, led by Brigham Young, reached this region, the whole valley was a desert waste, with no civilized settlements, (being then a part of the Republic of Mexico), and only sparsely inhabited by roving bands of Indians. On the dry, sandy plain nothing but sage-brush and scattering tufts of grass grew, and the soil was considered untillable and sterile. But these Mormon refugees, who had been driven f rom their homes in the civilized States of Illinois and Missouri by infuriated mobs, were willing to accept even this barren waste, washed by tho briny waters of the Salt Sea. as their home, if perchance they should be permitted to enjoy it in peace, and build up in this desolate region their Church and peculiar in stitutions. The x'Ugrim aiuer3, in their persecutions, banishment ana privations, have elicited the admiration of tho world for their fortitude and devotion to their Faith, but the historv of the Mormon immigration and settlement of this far off Western desert certainly parallels it in priva tion. heroio endurauce, and in tho wonderful success of their mission By indomitable perseverance, patient industry, and unquestioned obedience to theguidan jeandcommandsof their leader, whom they regard as tho annoioted Prophet of the Lord, they have literally made tho desert to blossom as tho rose. In our rido from tho railroad at Uintah alocgthc valley for more than thirty miles we could yeo what had been accomplished. Very evidently tho soil was not naturally deep or fruitful, but by plentiful irrigation and faithful cultivation they have raised its productive capacity so that we saw alocg the road bountiful stacks and barns of wheat, oats and other small grains already WvoetcU, Colds or corn equal iu our Indiana uplands, broad meadows and grcatstacks of hay, plentiful piles of potatoes and souash pumpkins, large orchards and gardens, grouped around almost every farm house with trees and vines bent almost to the ground with their heavy loads ot lruit, and herds ot cattlo "and immenso droves ot eliccp grazing on tho plateaus and hillsides. And scattered along every few miles were neat villages, with tho usual accompaniment of a church and sometimes a school house, a tavern, stores, blacksmith Bhop, &.c. Tho farm3 were generally small and evidently cultivated by tho single owner and his family. Tho houses wero usually rude and contracted, adobe or thatched, bearing evidence of tho occupants' poverty and the scarcity of building materials ; but wo passed several houtws of burnt brfok and frame of good, even large, proportions; and taken altogether, I believe there was about as much of the appearance of comf ort, air of neatness, and general intelligence as one would see in an average thirty miles ride ir Southern Indiana and Illinois or Western Kentucky. And all this accomplished in twenty years, on a desert soil, nearly two thousand miles by the traveled route from railroads, with savage Indians and unfriendly white men to oppose them. The portion of territory passed orer in coming to this city from tho railroad is said to be not the most feitile section. For near three hundred miles to tho south the Mormon settlements extend: and alone the valley of the River Jordan, and Utah Lake, which tho river drains, for fifty miles or more to the south of this city is tho garden spot of the territory. Along the banks of the Jordan, and up its little tributaries where fertile but narrow canyons extend up into the mountains, and around Utah Lake are fertile farms and flourishing villages and settlements. The close proximity of the mountains and tho narrowness of tho valleys make irrigation easy, as tho streams coming down from the snowclad heights are numeious and ncverfailijg. Since the valleys have become more thickly settled and cultivated, of lato years there have been more Summer rains, but they arc not certain and reliable, and irrigation still continues the dependence for tillage, though it is not necessarily 0 frequently used. Almost all tho productions of the middlo belt of the States flourish here. In tho extreme southern settlements the cultivation of cotton has proved successful, and considerable quantities are being annually produced and manufactured into yarns and coarse cloths. The great want of tho territory is wood and coal. The metals of all kinds are found in greater or less abundance, and iron, especially, is very plentiful. Experimenting is now going on in silk culture, and it is thought will prove highly successful. The Utah Central Railroad, from Ugaen to cait L.ako City, is now m rapid course of construction. As wo Tode along the valley yesterday, wo saw the work being done upon it. The gradiag can bo easily finished in two or three weeks, as the work is light; the ties are seen piled up along the track, and tho iron and rolling Btockaro said to be all purchased; and with no unforeseen delavs tho road will be completed to this city before the Winter sets in . The description of Bali Lake City is familiar to our readers and it would be superfluous in m0 to re-cit it in detail. The location, on 'tho mantic one, ruuning oacK on to tho beach or upland, lrom whence the Oreat bait .Lake can be seen in the

distance, environed almost with lofty mountains, on whose sides can be seen the perpetual snow, and whose crests reach eleven thousand feet above the sea level. It more nearly answers my idea of a "Garden City " than any I have ever seen. It [sic] squares are about five times as large as those

of Evansville. each lot beirjg nearly as large a? a siocleone of our squares. th thn tour .e ca nVhli anslcs I F u ,.i,,. , Anrt hundred and i thirfv-twofaet wide, generally planted I ;i, tr.r and witti streams or clear, cool mountain water iiowng ,in:nVich side of them. In theinteorder, and peace, lo us, who live in in the low level of the plains, the mountain scenery is srrand and aweaspirin;. U ir first day in the city has in most lc.-pccts been an unpropitious one, as it La3 been rainy enl stormy, and unpleasant to move about, but it has afforded us a view of mountain scenery which we might otherwise have missed in our entire trip across the Continent. Tho clouds have nearly all day hung low a.ong the Wahsatch Range, but occasionally there would bo a cessation ol the storm in the valley, and the wind would drift the clouds up to tho tops of the mountaius, aad we could see tho snow falling away up on their sides seven thousand feet above us. And towards evening tho storm abated and revealed to us tho whole lofty range, from the crests halt waydown towards their base, coverd white with the dress of Winter. I have cot been loag enough iu the city to speak from personal observation but I am told by "Gentiles," who are by no means prejudiced in favor of tho Mormons, that the'' peace of the community is rarely disturbed. From what I can learn 1 do not believe there h another city in the United States so peaceful and orderly and so free from public immoralities. It has a population estimated at about twenty-five thousand, and it only employs five policemen, who hava fittle to do. Tho United States Cfief Justice of the Ters4ory infor mo that there is very ilitle litigation in the Courts, and tL'aV little almost exclusively by " Gentiles" (all persons not Mormons are so-called). The few liquor saloons in tho place are all kerjt bv ''Gentiles." and almost ex clusively patronized by them, and Mormons are very seldom seen under the influence of intoxicating drinks. They point with pride and satisl'ac tioo to their habits of temperance, industry, and good order, and the resident enemies and strangers who come in and look upon this community arc constrained to acknowledge them, Thcro is much more I could write about the city, but my letter is already too long. Tho Mormon character, works, re licion. and social and political rela tions suggest subjects for a score of letters, and I have only time as travel hurriedly to write a few hasty ones. J. V . r. The License Question. Kdltors Jooraat : A few days since, the City Council of Evansvillo were a-iked to impose a tax or license upon every person jobbing merchandise in this city. It is unfair and unjust to impose a license upou some, while others go scot free. Tho Oouuo'.l, in their superior wis dom, votoi down that proposition One of that Lody essayed to mak3 a speech upon the question. Ho said "such a license seemed to him as anti-llepubliean,(vcry likely); it look cd to him as if vc were going back to the dark ages of the world instead o in the road to progress and enlighten ment. Ho was in "favor of free trade," See. "Let merit, tnergy and go-ahectiUlivcncss be the key to sue cess. Let us examine (he facts and seo the truth and justice of his remarks, hirst, every citizen here who is merchandising or manufacturing pays a tax or license for the privilege of doing so. Hero tho jobbers ray a license for tho privilege of jobbing goods. They pay a tax upon their moatLly sales, which is right and proper under the circumstances. They arc taxed for tho General Government, for the State and City Government, for the building of railroads and school houses; in a word, for almost every thing, cither directly or indirectly. Here they arc located and are contributing largely of their means towards the building up of a great commercial city the building of railroads with the view of opening up the avenues ol trade, thereby augmenting its population and commerce. lnc building of scucol bouses and the preserving and fostering of our institutions of learning, with tho view that our children may becoma enlightened, intelligent citizens. All these thing3 and many more are we taxed to build up and sustain. Here our lobbcrs have lnvpsfnl large amounts of money in merchandise, with tho view of attracting business to our city. They have expend ed largo amounts in advertising their uusmcss ia sundry newspapers ail over this section of country; they have employed salesmen at largo salaries, sent them into the country at heavy expense to solicit and build up a trado for our city, a-jd when all this is done, forsooth, a lot of itinerant drummers lrom our neighboring rivil cities, come into our market with samples ot their respective goods take board, open out their samples in a room, and dru-m every merchant that eomes here to buy "goods, and will take his order, send it to such point as he may have his general stock stored, and there it is filled. We have some in our midst that claim this as their home, have their washing done here and vote here. They have a complete assortment of i. : . it. . i samples rontt'.uuus iuu siocs. tney are selling, out of and from vrhich they can sell their goods just as well as if in tho midst of their entire stock. This kind of trade has been carried on lor years, but it is now multiplying to such an extent that justice demands that they should pay a reasonable license fcr thoir privileges. Is this free trade of which the gentleman speaks? Is this the kind of justice ho advocates so strenuously? Is this the read to progress and enlightment? If so.mv education is greatly at fault. Would it be risht or lust for Mr. A. to come here from Louisville say with four hundred samples of boots and shoes open them out ia a room aad he having a knowledge of all the trado visiting our city to buy goods should drum that trade take it. to his room seil.tiiem their goods t I say is it right for him to have the priv ilege of selling goods thus when every jobber hero has to pay tho amount of taxes and license enumcr ateur in tins case, i. is reaping the benefit of tho moneys, earnings and labors of all the jobbers for which In vim nothing. N& jobber of one city should be permitted to go and job goods ia another free of charge.

rior of the squares are cultivated gardeus, orchards, and vineyards. The wholo appearance of the city is thnt of comfort, airiness, health

,'elther should a retailer of odg r town so and sell bis gooua in e eny : n an- i or vcU hnnt license. It is di-crimi- ! nafing in favor of the itinera?it merchant, and to the detriment and : prejudice of the merchant that pays ail the taxes and endures the labor and expense of building up the trade of the city. Such a course is antagonistic to my republican principles. We would particularly have the City Council, as well as the balance of mankind, to understand that the job bers of Kvacsvilie don't stand in awe of any j obLcrs East cr Wesr. They1 simply demand justice at tho hands of their City Fathers. As we pay license, have others to do likewise. II. Iti'Aiaim licws. Indianapolis and Lafayette are being honored by llumpty I)umpty. The State Normal School is to open on the 21:h day of JNovcmber. They want a paper mill at Tcrre nautc. Terre Haute is always want ing something. The Worlhineton Times is informed that the ?ap on the Yineennes Railroad will be filled up by text Wednesday. The Crawfordsvillo Journal has a department headed the " Tht Coming Woman, ot which iurs. v. o. -uc-Doca'.d is editor. Mr. Paino, of Henderson, Ky., ar rived in Indianapolis bunday, with his horse "Faine," which he will drive at the fair. Mr. Thomas Denny, of Evansville, has entered his stallion " Shakspeare" for the State Fair. This horse is said to bo the fastest large horse in the West. The contractors for tho building of the new Indianapolis aod est. Louis Railway biidge have commenced putting on the iron work and ties. The Terro Haute Railway is laying a double track lrom Groeneastle to Terre llaue. It is c)mpltteJ to within six miks ot Terre llaute. ftfn( hundred and eighty indictAeaht have been found by the Gradd Jursot lianaolpu county, wnien nas just'adjourncd . Half-fare wili bo charged cn all the roads leadine to Indianapolis this week, and special trains will be run on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Two hundred entries for the tate Fair were made on Friday. The pre? pects for a most succe ssful Fair are exceedingly goo J. Twa Methodist Churches, one at Richmond and tho other at Franklin, wero dedicated yesterday. Both are beautiful edifices. Senator Morton and Gov. Baker, with their families, visited the Sol diers' Home, at Knightstowu, on Fri day. A son of Thompson Gwin, a boy about fourteen years o.u. was so se riously injured at Gosport, last Wednesday, by the falling of a pole used by a balloonist, that he died in a few hours, while another boy had his thigh broken. Oa Friday the Auditor of Stato drew a warrant on tho Treasurer for $'13,68 1 97, being the current expenses of the Southern l'rison tor the quar ter endinsr September Loth, lhe re ceipts of the prison during tho same quarter were $17,112, being $3,427 00 in excess of tho expenditures. A terrific conflict betwecu two neighbors occurred at Aurcra last week, the basis of which is stated by the Independent as follows: "It seems that neighbor A.'s pig rote early one morning, and went into neighbor B.'s garden and rooted up about seventeen rows of 11. '8 Early Rose potatoes." The man who will originate such execrable pur i deserves the most severe punishment. Josephus Collett, Esq., of the E. T. H. & 1). Railroad, was in the city on Saturday. He assures us that if the City Council of Terre Haute will vote the $1GO,(X0 asked for, tho road from this rlace to Danville, Illinois, will certainly be completed next year. In the meantime, the Chicazo & Danville and the Evansville, Henderson it Nashville Roads will undoubtedly bo finished and equipped. Thus, by the first of January, 1871, the great Chicago end Nashville thoroughfare, the main line of travel and freightage between the Lakes and the Gulf, may be in operation. Terre Haute JJxpress. Oo last Friday afternoon, 300 unpaid Irish laborers on the line of tho Indianapolis & St. Louis Railroad. surrounded the Jones House, at Grecucastle, where Mr. Tinney, one of tho contractors, was siopping, and amidst the wildest yelliDg and threatening, were about to force an entranc, when General Morris, the President, addressed the mob, spying that he had mado airaogeuients to pay each man his dues. At one time it seemed as though violence would ensue, but the speech of Gen. Morris had the effect to disperse the mob, and. all became quiet. 1 The Aurora Advocate, in its account of tho burning of T. & J. W. GafT'a distillery on Friday last, says: Tho buildings consumed contained about 30,000 bushels of corn, wheat, oats and bar.ey, which is a total loss. The loss upon buildings and contents is estimated at itoO.OOO, upou which there was insurance to the amount of 17,500. This is the third time that this firm has teen burned out the first time ia July, 1849, the second in November, 1831. With their char actcristic energy, on Saturday morning they had a largo gang of men at work, and in forty days they expect ro cave their mill built and again runnirtf.
