THE MORMON GoyERSoR. The Dsseret News
Of the 10Th ult publishes various documents Of
a curious character, exhibiting the manner in
which Brigham Young, the Governor Of the
Mormons, is conducting himself Here is an
extract from discourse recently delivered by
him:
1 have no fears whatever Of Franklin Pierce
exeusIng me from office, and saying that an
ether man shall be Governor of this Territory
We have got Territorial Government, and |

was speaking, and the same thing strikes me
now, viz inasmuch as he does first-rste as our

the Sabbath day.
understand these things, and say, as others
say, We are Mormons." We do things that
are necessary to be done when the time comes
for US to do them. If we wish to make political
speeches, and it is necessary for the best inter
est Of the cause and kingdom of God to make
them on the Sabbath, we do it, Brother Kim
ball has seconded the motion that DIR. Bernhisei
be sent back to Washington as our delegate; all
who are IN favor of it, raise your right hands.
More than two thousand hands were at once
seen above the heads of the congregation This
has turned into a caucus meeting 1t is all
right. would call for an opposite vote will

in opposition,
l will now say. not only to our delegate to
Congress, but to the elders that leave the body
Of the Church, he (our delegate) thought that
all the cats and kittens were let at him. When
brother Pratt went back last fall and published
the revelation concerning the plurality of
wives, 1t was thought there was no other cat
to let out; but allow me to tell you, elders of
Israel and delegate to Congress, you may expeet
an eternity of cats, that have not vet escaped
from the bag. Bless your souls, there is no end
of them. For if there is not one thing there will
always be another.
INFLUX OF IMMIGRANTS. N. Y. Courier
and Enquirer says:
The immigration from the Old World contin-
ues with augmenting force. We learn from the
books of the Commissioners of Immigration that
the total number of aliens who Srrived at this
port from the lst of January to the 9th inst,
was 81 ,922, being an increase of Is SS3 over the
same period last year. The immigration this
month is already larger than ever before during
an equal length of time, with few exceptions
a striking feature in this movement is the great
increase in the German element of immigration,
aud which now, as it has done since the year
lSo2, exceeds any other. By many interested
in the prosperity Of the country, this circum-
stance Is viewed with qualification, on account
OF the neutralizing influence which the Germans
and Irish exert upon each other For many
years the Irish immigration greatly preponder-
ated, till, in 1851, the Germans suddenly in
creased from 69.S83 to lis, ,126 in 1852. placing
the Irish slightly in the background Here are

Since the survivors were landed about a dozen
additional deaths have occurred among those
who were attacked at sea. The remainder are
recovering.
The Gold Mines of Maine are likely to turn
out the genuine article to a considerable extent
though not to realize much for individual Dig
gers. They are located in Madrid and Salem
towns, or townships, Franklin county, and the
editor of the Pennington Chronicle, who saws
that he is familiar with the geological features
of the region, declares it to be an auriferous
formation He tells US that years before gold
was discovered in California, he predicted to
some scientific friends that the precious metal
would some day be found in that section Of
Maine, and that now he has no doubt the owners
of certain tracts of land will realize handsome
fortunes. Further he expresses the opinion that
there is more gold in the vicinity of certain local
tiles there, which he names, than has ever vet
been dug from similar section in California,
This sounds very much like exaggeration. espe-
cially in view Of the caution that the editor
gives, that much labor and vast expense will be
required to get at the gold Nevertheless, he
makes it out very plausbly thus:
s'To speak in the language of geology, the
stratum containing the original deposit of the
gold-and where alone it will be found in large
quantities-is, in most instances, overlaid bv
masses of debris from the cloud-capt SUBMITS
and slopes of the mountains, which will occasion
enormous expense in reaching it. Hence, though
in some small tracts where it crops out fortunes
possibly may be made suddenly, we are of opinion
that there is very little inducement for multi
tudes, without capital, to rush to the diggings.
Most of the profit that will be realized from the
gold mines of Franklin will be obtained by COM
panes who have sufficient capital to enable
them to spend thousands of dollars, often, per-
haps, in Intellectual attempts to reach the orig
inal deposit"
DETROIT LADlEs.-0ur friends abroad may
perhaps be surprised to learn that large num-
Der of our ladies make their own boots. When
visiting lady of the ton, it is very common
thing to find her busy with last, awl, waxed
ends, pincers, and all the ct eetera that compose
the KIT of the boot maker. So skillfully do the
delicate hands execute their work, that it rivals
in elegance and neatness the shoes which are
purchased at the stores. Two or three pair of
boots can be made in day, and though about
two dollars are huSbanded on ennh neir thn
