One year ago this day, I landed in this city, and the sun then, as shone on these gorgeous mountains, their deep canyons, and this rich and beautiful valley, soft, genial and warm, as in time, it did during the "Indian summer" of Michigan.

A year ago Brigham Young and several score of his followers were in prison or under bnds, under indictments prepared by a packed grand jury, drawn in violation of all law. The public mind was then in a state of feverish excitement lest blows should be struck, and blood shed by the Mormons, iu their exasperation at the perversion of justice to which they were victims. The Supreme Court of the United States overruled the decision of the com ts here, quashed all their i legal indictments, and 128 Mormons were discharged from illegal and false imprisonment iu one day, by the mandate of that During n mis.siurinry niucting at England, lust Thursday cvlmw of'thc building iu which floor the ing, the meeting was being held gave way, precipitating a hundred persons ,t considerable distance, and injuring many of them fatally.

From statistics soon to be published it will appear that the exports of ore, "bullion and silver from Utah this year will equal at least $10,000,000, and that the am Mint pass-isr iu trausit over the Utah Central railroad in silver was $1G,0U0,000, the latter sum being about $80 for every man, woman nad child in the Territory, a'productand export nnequnled in the United States, This statement you may rely upon. Again, railroads have been extended during the last year over 100 miles in this Territory, and the whole of it is done with Mormon capital and labor. The Utah Southern and Central, the very best paying railroads in tho United states, has advanced thirty miles, and will soon reach Provo, 100 miles south of Ogdcn." The Utah Northern, narrow jtuage, has gone north nearly seventy miles, and will soon reach Soda Springs, 120 miles north' of Ogden, and it has more business than it can do.

The Emma mine sells to Dr. Smith & Bro., for at Chicago,1 $100,000 per month of ore, and as soon as they enl irge their works they will buy $200,000 per month thns making $2,400,000 from one mine The" Emma. Flagstaff, alone per year. and several other mines owned in England, divide fifteen per cent, per annum on $10,000,000 of stock each yCru. The Winsor mines,' owned in Detroit, are showing more and more ore each day, and their ore'grows richer and richer as they go down. So soon as they are ready to pay dividends I have no doubt they will pay $5 per share per month, without fail, The silver mines of Utah arehe Very richest oi earth.
