Lynnk, Weber County, Ebitor Junction Nov. 25th, 3873. : a few items Thinking would not this be amiss, I from place take the liberty to pen them. Our settlement is not dead yet, although there is but very little said about it. The people are getting more enterprising than heretofore. There is in contemplation and in course of erection several granaries, barns and dwelling houses, and likewise a liberal amount of picket and board fences. We have also the Utah railroad running directly Northern through our District, which Company, I hope, will be more accommodating in their business transactions than the C. P. R. i and so bring it within the reach of the means of settlers. I think they will patronize them in evsry sense of the word, and so increase their dividends, and aid materially in building up Six pe-hap- s R-- Ogden. Speaking of Ogden and its enterprises, makes me think of the theatre, which place I attended on Saturday last, and Alas! we Americans ars not ancient after all, though we have very centennial and celebrations. P makes us feel extremely juvenile read of the people of the Isle of fcly getting ready to observe the twelve hundredth anniversary of the foundation of their Cathedral. The custom of putting powder in sticks of wood for your neighbor to steal, is aa olo and barbarous one, and when we passed by a house the other morning aud saw the family shivering out in the yard over a broken stove, and heard the children crying for breakfast, our heart was filled with bitter reflections on "man's inhumanity to man." A Western paper is authority for stating that a Galesburg man in a public place recently displayed an unusual aifection for his wife, whereupon she grew uneasy and remonstrated against his attentions as too marked for public observation. "The deuce!" said our friend, "ain't w married ?" "Yes," said his better half, "but judging trom your deportment folks will think we ain't." A correspondent writine from Moscow, Russia, says : "I was struck by the genuine politeness of the au dience of the Moscow opera. The Czar entered in the middle of the first act. At his entering there was no demonstration. But after the act was over the whole audience rose and made a simultaneous bow, which the .Laiperor returned quite formally." They had a miracle up in Maine last week. A sick man's son went out and beat about the bush all the afternoon to get a nice, tender par tridge for him, and just as he reach ed the house at night, tired, faint and empty handed, and thinking how he should console the old man for the disappointment, a gigantic hawk flew over and dropped, almost at his feet, the very partridge he wanted.

Richard Mackay, who has just been penitentiary for a term of eighteen months for manslaughter, owns some of the best mining claims about Nevada, in Gilpin county, and is reported to be worth from $75,000 to $100,-00His case was carried through all the courts, lasting nearly three years, and conducted by the best counsel in the Territory. He has spent $30,000 in the effort to get clear. Mackay gained the high opinion of officers and all with whom he had to do, and during his confinement in jail here was allowed regu-- 1 larly to go alone to his meals at Char-piot- 's and elsewhere, and the night before he was taken to Canon City, unaccompanied, went over and had an hour's chat with Judge Bromwell.

The authorities have the matter unNorth-wester- n der consideration, and, it is thought, will give a favorable answer. An action against a dentist for palling the wrong tooth, came before a Keene, N. II. court the other day. The plaintiff, Mrs. Alice Lovell, being unavoidably absent' by reason of having died, her iuterests were represented by her husband, who asserted that his lamented spouse gave the dentist, Dr. I. W. Ilussell, special directions to pull certain teeth, and not to molest certain other teeth, but he made a clean sweep of one jaw and was rapidly harvesting the crop in the other, when 3Irs. Lovell recovered from the anaesthetic and shut her mouth. The suit was for $5,000 damages, but the jury, considering that it might have been a mere misunderstanding on the dentist's part, and that the plaintiff was dead, thought $20 about right. The death of a Bearded Woman Madame Jacqueline Doublin, has been talked of in Paris. She had a great beard, and it was her pleasure to wear the garb of a man. Nightly, thns fchc" visited the Chatelet Theatre. But, board or no beard, she could not escape the feminine destiny of loving unwisely and to well. It was significant that above two months ago she shaved and resumed her petticoat. She did this because she had fillen desperately, in love with a lead ing actor at the Chatelet. Of course the course-oher love coursed roughly .'is a general rule men are not attracted by women who are obliged to shave every morning. So poor Mrs. Jacqueline pined and pined and finally succumbed to her passion and died of a broken heart. Barbarous escaped. 0. Mrs. Brown Drowned (he Kittens.
