Sad Intelligence. the most miserable roads ever wagoned over. Richfield, the county town, has fifteen hundred inhabitants, It is one of the best built and neatest towns in Southern Utah, and the only one, I believe, that has a city government. We heie met G. W. Bean, Esq, who took the last census of the county, and from whom we obtained important facts concerning the popu lation, the resources, etc W ithin six to twelve miles are the following places: Monroe, Joseph, Elsinore and Glenwood.

The teachers and the pupils in the Seminary, together with the many friends Miss Locke has made in Utah, deeply sympathize with her in this sudden sorrow. Itinerating In Utah. We left Salt Lake City by the U. C. R. R. Dec. 1st, at 4:30 p. m. At Provo, fifty miles south, we were met at the train by Rev.
