TJiSROSE, Associate Editoe. OGDEX, UTAH. Saturday Morning, Jan. 7, 1871. What We Ought To lie. Fditors should be infallible. It is true that every mortal who has laid claim to the divine gift of infallibility Lai made a foel of himself. And that eneven Popes, for whom the God-lik- e their claimed been has by dowment followers have manifested human weakness and failed most when their pretensions werr greatest. But never mind. An editor should never make a mistake, never err in judgment, never publish anything but the exact truth. He should be ubiquitous, know everything, please everybody. He should pitch into everybody's enemios, praise everybody's friends, and, at the same time, give universal satisfaction. He should publish communicated rhymio twaddle and prosaio nonsense in such a way that, with a few editorial magic touches, it will appear as genuine poetry and the essence of wisdom. He should give the extreme grain of credit due to everybody, and yet offend nobody. Whether ill or well, lively or dull, merry or sad, whether aaything happens or nothing, ht must furnish news for the people, write for their edification and amusement, and suit every carping critic who reads his productions. He must puff every publio character civil, military or ecclesiastical, musical, theatrical, or spouticnl, feeding their vanity and satisfying the publio at the same time, lie must remember everything, forget nothing, pocket insults and entertain bores. He must issue his paper with unfailing regularity despite circumstances, and wait for his pay till his ubscribers get ready. If he cannot do this, and a thousand other things that no other man Is expected to do, then he is only common clay, an ordinary human, a fallible mortal, and sot fit to be an Editor. A Word with Weber Count j. The importation of blooded stock into this Territory, which has lately been renowed under the Agency of Jlr.Rydalch, will be a source of gratification to our enterprising farmers and other public spirited men. We hope this good work will be continued. Our stock has been deteriorating for years. Our cows are scrubby and many produce no more milk than a sheep, and most of our horses sire "plugs." The introduction of tho "Broncho" was not very profitable to the Territory. When we sum up all the disadvantages attending this w ild and jumping breed of animals, aud consider past loss of life and limb and present danger from these never fully tamed little beasts, we think it will be etneeded that the "Broncho" is not a success, and that the infusion of good Eastern blood is far preferable. Tke Durham bulls brought in by Mr. Rydalch are huge animals, aud no doubt others of the same breed will soon be imported for various parts of the Territory, for the people here have a singular custom of following together what they think a good lead of any kind. But a little caution will have to be used in mating these big fellows with our littlo runty cows and heifers, r many will be lost in calving. Our stock cannot be raised to a high standard by a sudden leap, but must be gradually worked up to the desired condition. Whet is the matter with the old Weber County Agricultural Society? Is it dead or only gone to sleep for awhilo. If it be defunct, it ought to be buried and its name blotted' out, and a new Society organized; if it is taking a nap, it should be roused at once from its slumbers. Thero ought to be a good, live Society in this county, composed of farmers, stock raisers and others interested in theso important matters, who will take an interest in them, and make practical efforts for that Improvement which our present position loudly demands. We want better stock, new seeds, improved implements of husbandry, combined efforts for a better system of agriculture, inducements for competition by fairs exhibitions and prizes; in short we want a new impetus created, to put life, thought and action unto our sleepy farmers and n pat Initio men of means, that Weber Csunty may not be behind in any measure inaugurated in other places for the increase of wealth and the diffussion of plenty's blessings.

(Laughter.) Perhaps it was also induced by associating the gentleman from Massachusetts with this measure of meagre mercy. (Laughter.) I thought I had accepted the invitation, which was once tendered, to attend one of tho grand upon the coast of Massachusetts, held by the throngs of the disciples of John Wesley.
