reigning sovereign like queen victoria it is the reverse of advantageous to the taxpayers tax payers of tb the nation no wonder the people growl and are dissatisfied at the demands which are being male upon them for salaries for the sons and daughters of the queen victoria herself receives an annual salary of besides the net revenue of the duchy of lancaster which is said to amount to per year then she has many more valuable perquisites which she careful soul that she is contrives to turn to excellent lac count account jt it was estimated that her husband prince albert was worth at his death at least this she ehe has control of we have seen it estimated that independent of jewels and other valuable property her private fortune is more than in gold the thu prince of wales income is equal to toh halt half alfa a million of dollars a year then be besides aidis aldis this his wife receives a year which if he die will be trebled the crown princess of prussia the queens eldest

prince leopold and princess beatrice yet to bo be p provided for they not being of age if they receive the sa same bame me salaries which will v w without a doubt be asked for unless there should be a great change in the affairs of england the yearly sum will amount in the aggregate 75 for leopold and for beatrice beatrice 40 to in addition to this there will be the young ladys dowry which will probably be I 1 were the prospect of paying such salaries confined to tha tho present t generation it itt would not be so gloomy for the people of britain th though 0 that would be bad enough for the guelpho are a long iong lived race but there ia is no danger of there being a lack of princes and prin besses to ask for pensions the princess of wales has no leanings towards res bes tell teli ism she is not ashamed to be a mother and all these scions will have to be provided for in princely style the leaven of republicanism is at work among the people of great britain to an extent never before known murmurs which find vent in indignation me meetings betings are frequently heard and the patience allence of the oppressed and poverty M burdened bened people is well weli nigh exhausted there are papers published and widely circulated among the masses in england which freely frealy ventilate these subjects and do all nil in their power without transcending the bounds of law to create dissatisfaction con concerning derning them the court party also is not suited with the queeni is seclusion and in its organs apropo was recently made ade for the queen to resign all the ibs substance m anc q of loyalty to the prince of wales and reserve to herself but the shadow of power there is a large class of people whose business is deep ay iy effected by the almost total wit withdrawal of victoria from public life frequent reception receptions gand sand and court days with all their pageantry and expense are ard necessary to keep their business lively they are consequently displease odwith edwith ed with mith the present mode of managing court affairs and would be pleased to see a change such as would follow were the to resign these matters to the prince ind and princess of wales this class ds second in inala ence only to the nobility of the kingdom and its members feel that the aristocracy irist and themselves have common ground for complaint but outside of these classes and probably the gentry the people do not feel favorable to the prince of wales he bears a bad name among them and even the conservatives serva tives dread his accession to power thousands of the people would gladly welcome a republic rather than havel have him as a ruler and before the demise of the queen they may be willing to do more towards establishing it than merely wishing for it ione ONE who knows has been bean writing a letter to the st louis J journal T of cum corn merce for housewives to read it is all about the superior syrup advertised so frequently in grocery stores and as there may ba some of this kind of stuff imported and used in this territory tt it will be just as good for the housewives of utah to read as those of st louis louls one who knows says that a vast amount of this superior syrup is not made of sugar cane neither is it the product of the maple but it is made chiefly from poisonous materials and its use will surely endanger health and lead to the destruction of life it is made of starch sulphuric acid salts of iron espe especially elsby clAby the sul phate p at and the t chloride of tin 1 one new who 0 knows no purchased a gallon of it and he e found n on testing it that it contained not less than four hundred grains of iron salts besides chloride of tin and ard other mineral salts the color and general appearance of this villainous compound are good and the odor pleasant but its use will blacken the teeth greatly greata y injure the stomach and bowels and impair the general health and il li ail all 11 these evils will be aggravated in the case of children one who knows saye says add to this ig superior golden a solution of of potassium and it will change to a deep blue color this is because of the formation of prussian blue dissolve a teaspoonful of the syrup in a wineglass wine glass of distilled or pure rain water then drop in a few grains of tannic acid and the whole mass becomes black as ink or what is easier still stir into a teacup filled with strong tea a teaspoonful of the syrup and the tea will become black this is s because the lea tea contains tannin none of these changes occur with syrup tha that t has been mad made efrom from the juice of the cane nor noi does syrup from the cane or maple contain any salt it is not very likely that there is this extract of starch sulphuric acid and salts of iron imported to or 01 used in this territory but if any persons have been induced to purchase and use it through being deceived by its fine appearance they should d for the sake of preserving themselves and families from sickness stop doing so and the hope that this will so go influence them has led to its publication THE late terrible orange and hibernian riot in new york has led to the inauguration gu ration of one of the best movements that irishmen ever engaged in the new york standard says that on the evening of the ard 3rd instant in stanta a meeting ol 01 irishmen was held in the eighth ward of new york city the object being to prevent the future celebration by pro ro sessions cessions ces of st patricks day the chairman of the meeting thought it was time for irishmen in this country to abandon everything that tended to create party feud or that endangered peace and that if an orange procession was objectionable to some from the sod catholic processions professions process ions were equally so to others and they all ought to be abandoned he suggested that a better way to spend the money used in getting up u P such processions professions process ions and festivals would be to purchase aims arms and furnish them to their oppressed countrymen at home against the time an opportunity presented to strike for their freedom the speaker thought that if irish catholics were not willing to give up their pro cessions sessions ces in honor of st Oa matrick patrick trick which were only religious and not nati national festivals they could nob nol object to orange professions processions process ions several beveral other speakers followed in ift the same strain and if the suggestions made find any thing like a general in the hearts of the Ameil amerlean american can arish irish this little meeting in iff newyork New York city will have laid th the foundation of a movement among jhb tho them em that may be beneficial to their fatherland for it will lead them to forget the differences which divide them as widely asunder as though they were weke nations of different and antagonistic nationalities i and bind them together as irishmen such 1 17 in 17 J I r I 1 1 I 1 T a result is too much to expect but until it is reached elands irelands Ir emancipation will never be effected by her sons at home or abroad for their internal dis dig pensions sens sen lons ions have hitherto been and they exist they will conti continue nile to he lie the chief hindrance in the working out of their count rys liberty which therall they all ail so ardently desire ai IN TOWN we had a very pleasant call yesterday from mr george danish consul at nassau west indias and mr nir john S davidson special correspondent of the constitutionalist augusta georgia these gentlemen are making nicking the overland trip to california for pleasure and with a desire to obtain a more extensive knowledge of the country and its inhabitants mr air nir davidson is weil weli well acquainted with governor cumming gumming from whom he be received considerable information concerning utah affairs we know no one who could give a better description of affairs in utah during his administration than governor cumming cum Cam ming he was and doubtless is still an honest man and honesty is a rare quality in these days in officeholders he was ready to fight the mor mons while he thought they were the lawbreakers and rebels they were represented to be but when when he found that the affidavits and documents of judges and other officeholders office holders who had been in utah were utterly false and ind the charges they had bad made were the coinage of their own brains he was ready to defend nathe the citizens citizen of this territory as he had formerly been to oppose P ose them and the people found in governor cumming an executive whom the they respected and of whom they were proul proud to this day his memory is warmly and universally un iver lver sally saily cherished by the people who lived her here a during his administration and many of those who have bome borne since have learned to revere him Gov governor eiDor cumming secured this respect without the sacrifice of one jot of his bis independence he did not seek the f favor v 6 of f the people by the desertion of what he felt to be principle when anything did not suit him he opposed it not by join ing cliques and abusing and maligning mali gning the people eople whom he had been sent to govern rut but in a fair gentlemanly manner and he be never forgot that the people were his bis fellow citizens the result was that the people knowing his motives were honest accorded him that respect which ia always due to men selected to fill eminent stations and in doing so the they felt that such action did not detract in 1 the tz least pleast from their dignity as free american citizens mr davidson informs us that the governor is well but that he has grown immensely ile he is the largest man he ever saw baw he resides with his sisters near to or at augusta georgia we are glad to hear from him and hope that the evening of his days may he be as pleasantly spent as the wishes of the citizens ot of utah would have them be hugh bunice burse esq editor of the leaven 4 worth kansas buit Bult bulletin etin aio also alo gave us a call mr burke is a former resident of council bluffs this is his first visit to utah territory he is much pleased with what he sees and thinks we have a very lively city he will remain in town a few days the visits of fair minded unprejudiced editors and correspondents to this city will do good they see ee for themselves and it is an exceedingly difficult matter to persuade a fair minded man of judgment who has no interest to by coalescing with the miserable ring of adventurers ed who a are re so anxious to breed trouble her here e that a people who have built this city settled this territory established good government maintained law and order hi in a country remote from the supposed advantages of or an older civilization whose territory counties and cities are out of debt deb and whose entire territorial and county taxes amount to one per cent only are othen other than an honorable honest industry industrious Indu str ous f sober and law abiding people THE progress in building the utah southern railroad Bail ball road is very gratifying it is being pushed for forward ward with all the celerity consistent with the circumstances which surround the company strict attention being paid all the time to economy bo so far as built and it is now nearly completed to dry creek lils it is in excellent condition for a new road the jessed with his assistants have the line laid out and the tha grade decided upon to the vicinity of the point of bf the mountain that point will bs be ready for the laborers to commence work upon next week the road will probably y cross there ther 0 o not far from the present presen t dugway dugnay the work at that place will wil I 1 be very heavy but it will not detain the construction of the line for while parties will be at work there and there is bothin nothing g to prevent digging being done in that loose gravel after the commencement of winter if not completed before the grad ing of the road and the laying of the ties will be pushed forward in utah county so that when the point can be cross crossed edby by locomotives and carb cars the aying abing of the rails will be the only work needed to make the line complete for some distance it ia is hoped as fat far fan far as 41 provo city this line of railroad will confer great benefits upon the tho country through which it jt passes and when it ia Is finished it will be found immensely profitable and convenient to the people there is nothing which more quickly tends to build up and developed dev elope a country and to improve the circumstances of the people than a awell well constructed railroad this has been experienced in every locality where they exist no
