Ashby, it is nearly up to the square: he is also building a limekiln. Ed Hendrix and W. H. Ivins are busy hauling rock on to their lots ready for building, and all hands are busy at some kind of labor, the weather not interfering in-terfering up to the present. Jesse Bleak left here yesterday with a bunch of very nice beeves for Mr. Harewood, the butcher at DeLamar, from which place he intends going to St. George to spend the holidays with relatives and friends. Hon. Thomas Judd has been just a month laying off land, putting up fences, and has been to Taylor, an abandoned silver camp, where he purchased pur-chased some buildings which have been taken dowh and hauled to Lund, Allen Wakeling erected the first house in the newly-settled colony of White river valley. The lower half is built of rock, the upper part with sods and the family heartily appreciated it as the weather is quite sharp at night, though pleasant during the day.
