Ooden Utah, July 23. In tho First district
court at Ogden, Ambroso Greenwell
was convicted of perjury. It appeared Jn
evidence before tho 'jury that Greenwell had
entered into a conspiracy with others, to
blacken tho character of Judge Orlando AV.
Powora and a Miss Sarah Herrick, of Ogdon,
for tho purposo of preventing tho president
from resubmitting the name of Powers to
tho sonato of ono of tho judges of Utah Territory.
In pursuance of 'this conspiracy
Greenwell started a slander, to the offect that
Powers had been guilty Of tho seduction of
Miss Herrick, and that illegitimate parentage
was about to follow.

before tho grand jury, in trying to
support tho slander. Tho coso was tried by
District Attornoy Dickson and Assistant District
Attorney Hiles for the peoplo, and ox
Judgo Emorson aud James Himball for thn
defense. It has been tho sensation of the
day. Gentiles are rejoicing at tho outcome,
as it oxploded another Mormou conspiracy.

especially sovere on tho practices of tin
