The Receiver, however, viewed the matter in an entiiely different light, and seized the. books and papers that have accumulated since the 3d of March last, and carried them to his olfice, wheie they now remain. This action suspended work, and the clerks took an enforced holiday.

S. L. Herald. DEATH OF ELIZA R. SNOW SMITH, Eliza R. Snow Smith, whose critical condition we chronicled a few days ago, died in the Lion House a few minutes past 1 oclock yesterday morning, Deceased was the daughter of Oliver and Rosetta Leonora Peltibone Snow, and was born in Becket, Berkshire County, Massachusetts, on tne ?ist of January, iSo4, being, at the time of her demise, 83 yeais, 10 months and 14 days old. Her death was nut due to any special disease, and will cause but little surprise among her immediate ft tends and relatives, who had been painfully aware of her physical decline, and who knew that the end was but a short distance away. She had been closely identified with the church iu its eaily history, and was with the leaders during the troublous scenes in Missouri and other places, and in 1847 came to Salt Lake, closely following upon the heels ot the Pioneers in their great journey across the plains arriving here in October of that year in the company led by Jedediah M. Grant. Before and since that time her life has been prominently before the public, and to enlarge upon her kindly qualities, her literary abilities, or her worth as a woman, would be simply to repeat facts that nearly every one is cognizant of.

J PRESIDENT CLEVELANDS MESSAGE e To the fiftieth Congiess is said to be the briefest ever sent to a Congress. It opens with the assertion that the condition of the national finances are such as to demand immediate consideia-tion- . The amount of money received from industries and otherwise, largely exceeds the expences of thegovernmen', and it is plain that the exaction of more than is necessary is a wrong indicted upon those who bear the burden of taxation. The public treasuiy becomes a hoarding place for money withdrawn from trade, ciipplmg our national energies, preventing investment, and inviting schemes of public plunder. Notwithstanding several operations of the Treasury Department to release the people, our surplus revenues have continued to accumulate and it is expected that June next it will have swelled to f $140,000,000. After the amount pointing out that theie now exists no clear aud undoubted executive power of relief, should an emergency arise, the President goes on to consider the justice of the tariff or duty levied upon importations from abroad, and internal revenue. Our present tanff laws, the various inequitable and illegal souices of unnecessary taxation ought to be revised and amended. These laws impose a burden upon those who consume domestic products as well as those who consume imported articles and create a tax upon all our people. This is set forth in a remaikably clear and forcible 111 l p One red yearling heifer, white spot in forehead, spuare crop off and underbit m left ear, no brand visible.
