Show Mormon Settlement lu A his is well, and in this picture of beauty there is to be fuuud but one lark spot, and that is their belief iu the right to have a plurality of wives. From a free and frank conversation ith Mr. Lake, I understand that hile thev believe in this right, nolv those with single wivea have been selected to come to Arizona, and it their intention in future to eive a . willing obedience to all This being the case, I, an see no reason why their immigration should not be welcomed and encouraged by every true friend of the territory. The health of the young colony has been excellent, which they mainly ttribute to the absence of dru2S among them, and only using such erbs and roots as thev can and in case of sickness. There have been seventeen births since their arrival, and a matronly old lady told me with evident satistaction that this was but small be"innipr of what might be expected to follow.

At first he was a little doubtful that the Governor of the Territory would drop down upon them in an ordinary miner's garb, working his own way through so rough and gen trally uninhabited a country, but becoming satisfied on that point such as they had in the way of comforts they gave freely, as this people do to all strangers who' come among thcai. This colony came from Utah, and settled in this valley last March. It coBhists of about 400 souls, men women and children. They have formed tour settlements, one across the riv3r from Obed, under charge C. Allen, and two of William below miles Sunset Crossing, twenty Lot Smith, and of under one charge our-laws- ST n, new-comer- s. s, other under Jesse Ballioger. of the territory. They brought with them wagons, the seeds, cows, and several months' provisions, and commenced A immediately to build forts aud teams, dig out irrigating ditches aud open farms. Every one works with a will, the head man takes the lead. They have no drones among them, 8Bd the work tkey have accomplished in so short a period of time is truly wonderful. Large stoue forts have been built, substantial stone houses erected, and many utiles of large irrigating ditches dug, often for long distances through solid rock. They were unfortunate this year in having oue oi their large Noted Convict Pardoned. From the Raleigh News. houses, Gov. Urngden issued a pardon to the most prominent man who has ever been confined in the State prison W. II. II. Houston, of Char otte. Four years ago Houston was the leading grocer mcrchaut iu that His establishment was the town. ia the city, and his business argest was immense, lie was a wealthy in and fine went man style. He was a man of the kindest heart, aud noted or his liberality. No beggar was ever turned empty handed from his door, aud his gen erosity and geniality made him as popular as he was prosperous. But in his haste to get richer still, he made ventures which involved him hopelessly. With afrantio hope of extricating himself from the dilemma iu which he found himself placed, bo forged paper to a large amount on the banks of Charlotte, and failing to meet the notes when they fell due, found ruin staring him in t& face, aud fled the State. He was arrested in Canada and brought back. Giving bail, he fled again and was arres'ed last spring in Florida. He was convicted in M cklenburg court at the May term. 1875, of the crime of for gery, and sentenced to the peniten tiary tor a term ot years. lie has been in confinement there ever since, washed away. This dam turned the water into tw? ditches on either side of the river, each , four miles in length. The break occurred just as they were About to commence irrigating, which caused almost the total loss of the crops of the upper settlements this year. When asked if this misfortune did not d'ecourage them, they replied not in the least; that it gave them experience to guard against like misfortunes in the future. They are much pleased with their location, and say that the advantages of soil and climate arc far superior to anything in Utah. They have erected a good saw mill and sell lumber at $10 per thousand at the mill. also have a grist They mill to attach to it as soon as sufficient wheat is raised, and intend to erect a woolen mill and wagon facThe tory within the next two year.. abu dance an of of hard advantage wood, near at hand, will place t em iu positiou to supply Arizona, Utah aud New Mexico with wayons of a the as climateis superior quality, warm and dry, and the shrinkage will be much bss than in those man ufactured iu a damper climate A !3od vein of a al hai been found within fifteen miles of their settle- dams : 1 , . unti yesterday.
