Show Aews Notes from Farininston. Fakminutos. Davis Co., March 0th, 1S70. iVifor AvuM : Your readers may supp o that this is a very quiet and unenterprising unenterpris-ing burgh because it lays back and doesn't say much, but as an uuas-eiuiiiug uuas-eiuiiiug man may have his talents and eccentricities, so a town ol this character may have its enterprises and diversions. Farmington is at present a hot-bid ol cooperation. A mercantile in?l;iut:ou, a tannery hiid a hoo ficiory are aJ.Ul ;o its lar.e and pr"titr i Mrieuiiur d inlere-t-. Karmintori nay h.i I ng been cmi-CAiiisiilend cmi-CAiiisiilend the d iiui:e.-. .nai a hun gry tquino or bovine conl in.tuliie in, at.d will aivf.iys let.h tne m .-i i:i tl'.e Salt Lake market on its reputa-1 lion. And now its leather is bocom- ' . notorious. The success ot this branch ' of industry has ciciud a dtsire on i ine pari ot the other settlements i:i ' the county t cperate, and the in I ntiiu'.iou will become the property oi 1 the whole county and thus receive an ! impetus and support that will render failure imooasible. While ttie Farmingtonians keep a weather eye open for pecuniary profit, thev also encourage amusement. Scott's minstrel troupe has varied the diversion here for one consecutive night only to a full house and wonder-ftricken wonder-ftricken audience, who have lol a!! confidence- in the "cnllt-U britner,"i anu ad respect for tho nation's pet, tnrough Bteing the man'elloin deli-neatik-ns of tuese arlistt-s. Tney wanted to perform aj;ain but Farmington Farm-ington rehiMil. It was tro much, ttie town was too deeply oflucud. And now another calaaiily has ! befallen this rui-fated vicinity. I am 1 destined to bore thern to night on "American humor." Xnis u tne laci feather to b.eak the back of the patient camel, but they insist on it aud in my good nature I muet yield. Thus people bring altl'.ctions on themselves, but they are prepared tor the shock. G ILEA i. |
