WILLIAMS & CO. half-starve- d ill n isxisii AT TIIKIll YAKD, Corner of Union Square, line is being drawn between the true lawyer and the ignorant and unprin- cipled' fettifogger. This prejudice against lawyers, in.tlie early period of our settlement here, was also extended to law. Studying law was considered by some equivalent to learning "the black art." And even men who occupied official positions, of a minor character, however great their desire to bo just, had a corresponding ignorance, not to say contempt, of law and legal forms and technicalities. But those days are passing away, and it is expected that every man elected or appointed to a public position shall not only have the disposition but the ability to honor his calling, and shall be qualified to fill his placo with credit to himself and profit to tho publla. We have heard of proceedings transacted by Justices of the Peace, within the last ten years and not a hundred miles from tho good city of Ogdcn, which, if performed in the spirit of equity, wore certainly not according to the letter of the law. When a person is brought bofore a Court on a criminal charge, in the name of "Tho Teoplo," private compromise between Complainant and Defendant, is not generally considered the legal way of deciding the case. "Settling it between themselves," is a very convenient and praiseworthy method in a civil suit, or a dispute where the parties are themselvoa the chief persons concerned, but in a criminal case "The People" are interested, and tha law requires a decision in tho case according to the evidenco and the jurisdiction of the Court. This kind of justice might do very well, or be passed by and winked at, in the incipient stages of a community's existence, but In times like these it cannot be permitted to continue, but must be in an ever buried with all Wo are grave. lasting advancing, be. coming a great people, gaining a name in the earth. All that wo do should be done well. If we act in the namo of the law, we must do it legally. If a man is called to an office, he must qualify himself for it.. If not, his incompetency will be exposed, and the light of the times, which should lead him to honor and renown, will only show him tho way to his official grave. We kindly and respectfully advise cwry public man to find out tho nature, extent and limits of his position, and to become fully acquainted with the laws which affect him in his publio capacity, And if every citizen of this Territory were to become thoroughly familiar with its Statutes, the knowledge would certainly do them no harm, and might do them a vast amount cf good. in The Opening Lecture. Hon. F. D. Richards delivered the opening lecture of the Ogden City Library Association, at the Third District Schoolhouse on Tuesday evening last. After a few introductory remarks, the lecturer spoke in a very instructive manner upon Law, Medicine, Geography, Astronomy and other sciences, for the purposo of drawing the attention of the Association to the importance of these subjects, and of inducing them to obtain the services of men who are ablo to deliver lectures on these sciences in a popular and efficient manner. "T A Established March, lbftl. s, UTAH Plank, Where the Modal Went. i v the year 1867, Congress, in view of tho great sorviccs of Cyrus W. Field, in the cause of science in general, and in tercoinmunication in particular, voted that a gold medal should bo presented to that gentleman, and appropriated the sum of $5,000 for the purpose of pro viding a modal worthy of offering to the chief projector and perfector of tho At lantic Cable. The medal was manufac tured and submitted to the President for his iuspection. He approved of it and returned it to the Treasury Department. After a while it was missing, and all the enquiries and searches to discover its whereabouts proved unavailing. It was ooncludod inat the medal was stolen; so another was made, and Congress appropriated a second $5,000, and Mr. Field at last received the Government Testimonial. Time passed along, as it usually does, blotting out almost entire ly the remembrance of the missing medal, when, a few days ago, it came sud denly to light. Assistant Treasurer Tuttle, in a casual way, expressed his surprise to General Spinner that Mr. Field thought so little of the valuable gold 'medal presented to him by Congress as not to call and get it. Here was a Upon investigation it was surprise found that Tuttlo had received it from tho President in 1807, that this lump of 1 gold, weighing four pounds, had been snugly tucked away in his safe ever since, and that this lively Ass. Treasurer had never heard about the search nor the inquiries that had been instituted. That's the way they do business at head quarters. What would be said of aiy private business firm that could not trace the travels of a four pound lump of gold entrusted to its care? But then this is a Government matter, and that makes all tho difference you know. When the Utah "ring" has played out its misera ble little game, wo suggest that it be placod under the care of Tuttle. To be sure it is only composed of "brass" and ought not to be mentioned in the same breath with the pure gold of the medal, but parties at headquarters will want to poke it away effectually out of sight, in a short time, and we say consign it to tho caro of Tuttlo. An Excellent Institution. An Asseciation for the improvement and cultivation of stock, bees, fish, etc., has lately been organized in Salt Lake City. From tho minutes of their meetings which have been published in the Dcaertt Evening Newt, it is evident that the Society mean business. Arrangements d are being made to introduce cd shoep and homed stock, the best varieties of fowls and fish, and Mr. W. D. who bocome has Roberta, well Known in tne community as a successful importer of bees, will start for the East on 13th inst. to pur chase as many hives of tho industrious littlo honey - makers as the Utonians please to order. Tho Association are anxious to gee the benefits of their Institution widely diffused, and earnestly recommend the organization of Branch Societies throughout the Territory. We cordially second their proposit ion, and hope to see the leading men in the settle' meuts "carry ii" with hearty good will. What has Ogden to gay on the subject? full-bloo- cloth. The following cheap methods of painting a blackboard are from the Scientific American: "Disulve gum shellac in alcohol, and with it lamp black and flour of emery. No more lamp black and flour of emery should bo used than is necessary to give the required black and abrading surface, and sufficient gum to hold the materials together, and confine tho composition to the board. The thinner the mixture the better. The lamp black should first be ground with a small quantity of alcohol to free it from lumps. Arply with a common painter's brush, and when dry, smooth with pumice stone." "A still cheaper preparation, thougB hardly as durable, may be made and applied by any school teacher before nine o clock on a summer morning, and used in a half an hour thereafter. ' For tiity squaro leet of board take 4 onnces of common glue, 3 ounces of flour of emery, and just lamp black enough to give an inky color to tho preparation. Dissolve the glue in J of a quart of warm water, put in the lamp black and emery, and stir until there are no lumps; then pply to the board with a woolen rag smoothly rolled. Put on two or three coats, evenly, and you have a nice surface at a cost of about thirty cents tor material, l ou may call this the Poor District's Paint.' The latter method will be worth knowing to the people in newly-settle- d districts, or to teachers, who are in a hurry to fit up a school room, and cannot wait fur the slower but superior process. With these simple directions, no school room in the Territory need be long without a rood substantial black board. mix sii: i al Scantling, Joists, Eafters, Fencing, Inch Lumber Siding, Battens, Flooring, Finishing Lum ber, and Picketing, FROM $30 to $35 IP or Tla.oxxsrvxa.c3L. a few day's notice. th i.s.
