THIS UXT T:IR PAST AND PUT! 'ItE. JOURNAL. tiOVKHMOR, UTAH. rou Tho appointment of Covcrnors of Territories is a duty always onerous to the Federal administration, and when the responsibility is Increased by the conflicts of opinion and iuterest among residents of Territories, tho task still more difficult. Unlike any other Territory, Utah requires a Gover-ne- r of peculiar composition, one combining those rare qualities! nerve, talent and discretion; if such a man can be found the laws will be enforced, justice administered and society protected-Utabaa cost the Government one fruitless war, has been a source of continued annoyance to civilization and has shocked humanity by the outrages The committed within her limits. the in exercised be should care greatest selection of officers, not only to insure proper execution of the laws but to protect the innocent from tho social tyranny now practiced by a treacherous Priesthood, but to encourage a class of emigration possessing the ability to develop the resources of the country. One of the greatest obstacles to be encountered in the adjustment of affairs in Utah, is the apathy of Congress. Who can discharge the duties of Governor with no law to guide and sustain him? Who is silly euough to believe that a Mormon Legislature will pass any enactment in opposition to the directions of Brigham Young? Uader the present Organic Act the Governor of Utah, whoever he may be, is and will be a mere puppet, a powerless auxiliary and a useless servant of the Government. Step children of the Republic as we are, we can endure the impositions of a fanatical majority, the wrongs of a depraved and scheming priesthood and a corrupt local judiciary, bnt we earnestly pray to be spared the infliction of an iucompetcnt Governor. h Another throb of old Time's mighty heart is well nigh accomplished, and again wo stand upon tho narrow threshold that divides tho immemorial past from the illimitable, mysterious future. Soon tho page upon which is iuscrilicd the record of our lives for 1872, will bo closed forever, nnd another leaf, pure and unsullied, be opened before us. The few short hours of the present remaining to us, is a fitting lime to glance hack over the records written by our owu hands during the year now dying, and happy indeed is he who can read it without sad regrets. Many can read thereon, but a history of failures and defeats, and behold full many a dark blot they would fain efface ere it is folded forever from their gaze, and transcribed upon the ledger of the Almighty. Fate must have dealt very kindly with him who can re .d hit record with unalloyed satisfaction, and feels that were it ia bis power, he would change naught thereou; whom no ghosts of dead hopes, nor skeletons .of, wasted opportunities arise to haunt and perturb. And it detracts naught from the sadness of ' the retrospect,1 to know that what each of us there rends, has been inscribed by our own bunds. Bnt it is this knowledge that, at the same time it adds bittersess to our reflections, is the ray of brightness that pierces through the clouds that have arisen from the past to cloud the future, and is as the star of hopq leading on to a higfaor and The indolent more successful life. the futalisin of the Orient cilixen of this progressiva nation, and the lessens learned during the past year should teach us to grapple more bravely and intelligently with the future. It is with hopes of unusual brigriness MEXICO AMD RAILROADS. r The project of General Itosecrans for a narrow gauge railroad in Mexico, is assuming definite proportions, and if the Mexican Government makes ihe required concessions, the work of construction will be began immediately, as tho necessary capital has been enlisted in the enterprise. Associated with Rosecrans in the project are several of Philadelphia, wealthy residents Thomas A. Scott, whom Col. are among S. M. Felton, G. M. Pullman, E. C. Knight, Asa Whitney, J. McManus, M.
