mail matter arrived from the east at rawlings raw Kaw rawlin lings s this morning the track from that point to echo is clear so that thit eastern mail matter may be confidently expected in this city in the course courso ofa of a cou couple p loof of days by most of our citizens that at its recent session the legislative assembly were petitioned titio ned ned for an appropriation to levee the jordan in order to effect the reclamation of much valuable land which for the tho past two or three years in consequence of the excessively high waters has been rendered useless to accomplish this very desirable object 1000 were welo a appropriated p by the legislature isted to be elpe expended na under tho the supervision of won eon hon elias smith probate judge for this county it is true that the tho sum thus appropriated is not near sufficient for the work to bo done but it shows a sympathy on the part of the legislature with the object sought our attention has just been called to this matter again by an influential gentleman one of our leading citizens whose business cairs calls him to the outskirts of the city ina lna in a southwestern estem direction a day or two since he says he was surprised and vexed to find so much valuable land rendered entirely useless through being underwater under water when this is owing in a great measure to the wilful neglect or stupidity of the owners of the land in not cutting ditches and making proper banks to contain and prevent the waters from overflowing he saw only one called the spencer ditch that was calculated to answer the purpose intended ditches of this description our informant says can bo be cut without a very great ex pense and were the proprietors of these lands at all alive to their own interests they would have the work done immediately the gentleman referred to felt warm on tho the subject surjeet and made the very pertinent remark I 1 if the owners of these lands will not improve M 0 and uso use them why do they not let 0 others h have havo V them who will wo we have repeatedly called attention to this subject before and think it is of sufficient importance to be mentioned again if the proprietors of these those lands and the gentlemen appointed to expend the legislative appropriation could enter into some concerted action they might do a greater work than if the tile means of each were spent separately these lands being so near tho the city and many hundred acres in extent if once properly erly drained might be turned to very profitable account for grazing purposes or S dalry dairy a farms which would greatly increase the t 0 wealth af the city and have haye a tendency to improve the health of its inhabitants FROM MONDAYS DAILY i CONCERT AT CEDAR CITY by B 3 r deseret telegraphy line we are
