Associate: Editor. C. W. l'ENUOSK, ocii:x, utaii. Saturday Morniujr, Feb. 18, 1871. Fish nitt! Suit. Fish has been hitherto a luxury in Utah. Our mountain streams and two of our lakes abound in fish, but the quantity which has been caught fur the market has only been sufficient for au occasional taste. The subject of fish culture is now occupying the attention of ftiatiy praetrcal men in the Territory, wl Wider the direction of the Parent Society for the Introduction and Im provement of Stock, Fish, Bees, etc., it is to be hoped that this excellent article of food will bo brought within the reach of every one. There is no need to dilute much on the nutritious properties of fish, nor on its delicate flavor, adapted to the palate f the greatest epicure as well as of the most careless in regard to diet. There fs no doubt that an enormous quantity f this material would be consumed in this Territory if the" supply were sufficient, and if its price were wiihia reasonable bounds. Fifteen cents per pound is the lowest price we have heard of in Ogden for Bntivo fish, and the imported article fanges from twenty to thirty cents per pound. Now there is a prospect that the Tcry best kind of salmon and codfish will become a staple in the markets of Utah, particularly in those places contiguous to the great iron road. Mr. McDonald, from Olympia, Washington Territory, who called to see us a few days ago, and who has gone Kast to stir up trade for the north-wecoast, informed us that ny number of tons of salmon and codfish from Puget Sound and its neighborhood could be laid down in San Francisco at three cents pur pound, barrels included. These fish are far superior to the somo species from the Atlantic shores, a those waters are too warm; while the cold waters of the 1'acifio and the northwestern inlets, which ore literally swarming with salmon, are exactly adapted to ef tbcati luscious olulu- thn r.r4u4i4 ties. .We look for a great trade to spring up between this Territory and the fisheries, and expect to see salmon and codfish, brought Via San Francisco and the C. P. It. It., as plentiful in Ogden as trout and snckers in Pear Lake, and chenper than tough beef ii nd loan mutton. This need not interfere with tho production of fish at home. Suit fish, however cheap, will never push out of the market fresh speckled trout and other tinny luxuries in noc cut of suline effects, but it will down prices and bring this desirable article of diet w ithin tho reach of the poonest. Intimately connected with the fish question is the subject of salt. Mr. McDonald, after inspecting and tasting the suit produced from our great lake, best used in pronounced it equal n nd prethe fisheries, dicted its exportation, when its qualities become known, in immense quantities both east and west. We are pleased, to learn from the I)ncret Xct that Mr. F. Mitchell, who has been successful in introducing Salt Lako salt into several of the Eastern markets, is about to enter extensively into its manufacture and exportation; and its our Lako salt is generally believed to be strongly impregnated with alkaline qualities, we copy tho following analysis to assist in correcting the impression. This analysis was made by tho Professor of Chemistry at Vassar College, Ponghkeepsie, New York, from a sample forwarded to him from Omaha: st north-weste- rn to-th- e north-wester- CHEMICAL ANALYSIS or Wo Relieve Hot. Tiie clerical fraternity of Denver, in consequence of tho desecration of the Sabbath in that city, find themselves under the necessity of making an appeal to the saloon keepers and others to close their places of business on Sunday, and to tho "moral and ordor loving" to interest themselves in the matter, as the desecration of the Sabbath tends "to the detriment of publio morals and the reputation of the city, which iu its turn depreciates the value of real estate and the interests of the public generally." The Denver clergy aro wise in their generation, they know how to touch tho tenderest point in the Denver mind. An appeal directed to real estate interests is more pungent than an address to religious sentiment. Anyhow the effort is praiseworthy and we wish it success. Plonty of room for reformation in Denver. We are in receipt of a letter from Willard dated Feb. 1st which did not come to hand until the 14th inst., we should be glad to know where this letter has been and why it was so long in Willard is finding its way to Ogden. fourteen miles from Ogden and it has Report or (lie Xctada mit tee. Com- In another column we publish the l'.cport of the Special Committee appointed by the Nevada Senate on the annexation of Utah. It is one of the most impartial documents we have seen for a long time. The tribute paid to the order, morality and good government of this Territory, coming from leading Senators of a neighboring State, is as creditable to their sense of justice and liberality as it is flattering to Utah. Their argument concerning our social relations, and their conclusion in regard to our admission into the Union, is as sound in logio ns it is wise iu statesmanship. We expect to see a storm of indignation raised around the heads of these gentlemen, who have had the courage and the fairness to speak out in such a straightforward manner their convictions on the unpopular side of a national subject. The rabid organs of the press will anathematire the Committee, and the ultra It ads let fall their hottest fire upon the devoted heads of the truthful three. l!ut they will fuel the satisfaction of having done their. duty without fear or favor, and the future will prove the wisdom and justice of their arguments and conclu sions. The Report of tho' Nevada Committee will be a powerful argument in favor of much abused and world-belieUtah, una witn other influences widely at work, will help to put us right before the great power of the lahd the sovereign people. prison-and-gibb- d The TeniiOMs.ee. Much anxiety is still felt by the public in regard to the "Tennessee" which started over a month ago for San Domingo with the Government Commissioner on board. Up to this date no reliable news has been received from her or concerning her. She was not expected to be longer than ten days in making tho trip, and in another day news of her arrival could have reached Havana from whence a cable dispatch might to have been forwarded to Washington. The"Tennessee" is a new ship of nearly three thousand tons burden, staunch, seaworthy and larger than any Government vessel cruising in the West Indies. She was launched since the close of the war and is commanded by experienced officers, has a full crew, ts completely equipped and fully provisioned, and carries ten buoys with a large steam launch. Captain Drummond of the "Anderson" reported seeing a vessel which he took to be the "Tennessee" on the 18th ult, about a hundred miles off Cape Hat-ter. steering directly South. A perfect galo was blowing and he considered that she ought, if sho weathered the storm, to havo put in at Jamaica in four days, and reported from that placo. A British vessel which arrived at Boston on '.he 13th inst. reported having on the seen an American north-wesido of Ilayti, heading towards Cuba, and although this was out of her regular course it was taken for granted at the Navy Department that it was the "Tennessee." But as time still rolls on without a word from tho missing vessel, grave fears for the safety of the Commission have crept into official quarters, as well as into the publio mind. The arrival of tho "Tybe," tho regular mail ship from Sua Domingo, ia now looked for with great anxiety, and if she brings no word of the "Tennessee," the Dominica Commission will be looked upon as lost in the sorvice of the conn-trar st Turk't Island.

This establishes the purity of our Dative salt, and shows its superiority to the Turk's Island production, which has a high- reputation in tho great markets.
