Trial Of tile Beaver iSiamd Mormons-The
trial of James Strang, aud his followers, for OBJ
structing The u s. mail and for other offences was
continued at Detroit on the Both ult. Strang has
counsel, but he addressed the jury in person. He
said the Mormons taught nothing at variance with
the laws of the country and good moral and reli-
gous society.
He would refer to the witnesses here against
them, and the ungentlemanly course taken he
would like to know if Mormon was not to be
credited how those not fit to belong to the Mormon
Church even, were to be believed the witnesses
here were cast off and kicked out members of the
church, not pure enough to belong to it.
William Townsend, one Of the witnesses for the
defence, made sort of confession of faith. The
following is portion of his testimony:
believe in James j. Strang, as the prophet of
God that God makes immediate revelations
through Strang, and if Strang should tell me he
had received special revelation from God, should
believe it.
Should Strang tell you he had received a revela-
ton from God that the character of certain man
you did not know, was bad, should you believe it :?
| should Would you swear to it? 1 don't think
| should swear to thing did not know.
Then you do not believe in revelations l do.

He stood the gentlest of the brave
But yester' eve, and now
He sleeps within his CORY grave,
With the ath.damp on his brow.
Shrined in no mean, no vulgar clay,
A spirit strong hath passed away,
That man could never bow;
But Fate or Chance hath often bowed
The mghtiest amid the crowd.
Gone still pure and gentle light
Bursts forth through many tear,
Though shrouded eye as eagles bright,
In gloom and darkness here;
Though changed his morn of life tonight,
His birlhright-for a bier;
Though quenched be the holy flame
That 'umlned so long his morning dream,
Still there's spirit in the mind
OF man which force can never bind;
A spirit over which Ills vain
For Hate to fling its bloody chain.
That spirit is not quenched in blood,
Though the hearts warm purpureal flood
Hath in moment ceased to flow,
And Faction feels the warm glow
OF victory mantle on its cheek.
Sill, mingled with the orphans woe,
That spirit silently will seek
Communion with the hearts that feel
That such intellegence--suchz zeal
Held only for the common weal)
Should fall to factious hate prey.
To-day may be as yesterday
One earthly bond is only burst,
Each link stands firm as al first.
Alas that this too deadly hate
The chosen instrument of Fate
Even in a moment, less should sever
Hearts that had still loved on for ever)
Should riot DER the rich repast
That it hath made itself at last,
Coarse fare and carrion please as well;'
On these alone it should have fed,
Nor let the orphans early woe,
Curse the hard lot that left them SO,
To mourn DER parent dead.
Oh Thou who in thy wisdom sees
Beforehand all mans destinies;
Thou who hast taken charge of him
Whose heart is cold, whose eye is dim.
(As thine own spril) deal as mild
And gently with each favored child:
Be thou a father in his stead,
Even for his sake, among the dead.
: God of my fathers let me kneel-
Be this my only deep desire,
That this be all the pang they III feel,
Until in Heaven they meet their sire.
Peace to the ashes of the dead
Tread lightly Ger his bloody grave.

Thus have the brightest gl0ries faded.
Life's landscape-must be shaded;
And he who builds his hopes thereon,
Hath broken staff to lean upon.

The NsU R5stage Law = The Philadelphia
Ledger, Of the 3dinst., learns that the number of
letters received at the Post Office in that city on
the first day Of the operation of the new postage
law, was double the average received daily under
the late law, and amounted to about twenty thou,
sand. The number of pre- paid letters was about
one-tbird the amount received, which was but lit
tie over the number of paid letters under the for.
mer law. This, the Ledger thinks, might be ow.
ing to the fact that stamps sufficient were not pro-
durable, and the trouble of paying at the window,
in consequence of the crowd, caused vexatous de.
lay. On the I'd inst, about one half of the num-
her Of letters received were prepaid. In NewYork
we see by a statement in the Courier, the number
Of prepaid letters on the first day, compared with
the average number under the late law, was as
five to one. The post-ofFices in both cities were
flooded with business circulars, which were kept
back till the new law went into force
