THE GREAT SALT LAKE CITY.

A correspondent of the OregOnian, who
has just made the trip from Oregon to
Utah, gives the following description OF
the Mormon settlements at Great Salt
Lake City:
Everywhere are the evidences of an
industrious people, in the stacks Of hay
and grain, and great piles of yellow pump
kins, and the abundance of other vegeta-
bles. The absence of wood as building
material, gives the houses of sticks and
mud rather hut-like appearance; but
these structures are being replaced by
good abode edifces.
"The city has the look of a great col
lection of small farms, each lot being large
and cultivated in crops-all having the
air of rustic plenty. The city is magnif-
Gently laid out, with noble broad streets.
well kept. The stern, rugged mountains
in the distance seem to wall in the valley,
and separate the Mormons with all their
doctrines, from the rest of the world
They are building an abode wall, fifteen
feet high, around the ten acre lot in the
centre of the town, in which are the
foundations of the temple, and the COM
pleted tabernacle or meeting house--a
plain, large, and neat room, holding 800
pr 1000 persons. The council house and
bost-office are good succeed structures
lll of these doing great credit to the ener-
yy of the people.
Brother Brigham lives in white cot
age, with a double coach-house, but is
building fine new house. There is no
loubt of his having about thirty wives,
md that sometimes several of them 60 to

E hings are part of a religious system, all

daughter of which, a fine young woman,
is one of the twenty five spiritual wives Of
Kimball, the second in command"

EVERY pEAN HAS GA CALI"

Each man has his own vocation. The
talent is the call. There is one direction
in which all space is open 10 him. lie has
faculties silently inviting him thither TO
endless exerron He is like ship in II
river; he runs against distractions on eve'
ry side hut one; on that side all obslruc.
ton is taken away, and he sweeps Sc.
renely over a deepening channel into an
infinite sea. This talent and this call de.
pend on his organization, or the mode in
which the general soul incarnates itself
him. lie inclines TO do something
which is easy 10 him, and good when il
is done, but which no other man can do.
He has no rival. For the more truly he
consults his onw powers, the more diff.
ference will his work exhibit from the
work of any other. His ambition is ex
actly proportionated to his powers. The
height Of the pinnacle is determined b,
the breadth of the base. Every man hal
this call of the power 10 do somewha
unique, and no man has any other CALL
The pretence thai he has another call,
summons by name and personal election
and outward "signs that mark him extra
ordinary, and not in the roll Of common
men," is fanaticism, and betrays obluse
ness to preceive that there is one mind il
all the individuals, and no respect of per
sons therein. X, W. EMERSON

A clergyman, who had considerable of
farm, as was generally the case in our
fathers days, went out to see one Of his
laborerS, who was plowing in thefeld, and
found him sitting upon the plOw, resting
his team.
'John,'' said he, "would it not be a
good plan for you to have stub scythe
here, and be hubbing few bushes while
the oxen are restingT
John, with a countenance which might
well have become the clergyman himself,
instantly replied;
"Would it not be well, sir, for you TO
have swinging board in the pulpit, and
when they are singing to swingle little
fax ?"
The reverend gentleman turned on his
heel, laughed heartily, and said no moro
about hubbing bushes.

MARRIED IN SPITE or THEIR
TEETH.

Old Governor Salonslall, Of Connec
ticu, who fourished many years since
was a man Of some bumor. as well az

sired. Among the other anecdotes told
Of him by the New London people, among

was one known as the Rogertes, so called
from their founder, John or Tom. or
soma other Rogers, who settled not far
from the goodly town aforesaid. The
distinguished tenet of this sect was their
denial o! the propriety and scripturality
of the form Of marriage. They believe
it is not good for man to be alone, and
also that one wife only should 'cleave un-
to her husband But then this should be
a matter OF agreement merely, and the
couple should come together and live as
man and wife, dispensing with all the
forms Of the marriage covenant
The old Governor used frequently to call
upon Rogers and talk the matter over
with him, and endeavor 10 convince him
of the impropriety of living with Sarah as
he did. But neither John nor Sarah would
give up their argument. Ii was matter
of conscience with them; they were very
happy together as they were; Of what use.
then, could a mere form be? Suppose
they would thereby escape scandal, were
they not bound 10 take up the cross, and

iessed? The Governors logic was power.

one day, and meeting with him, accepted
an invitation 10 dine with him. Conver.

Now, John said the Governor, after
long discussion of the point, why will
you not marry Sarahl Have you not
taken her to be your lawful wle!'
yes replied John, but my own con.
science will not permit me TO marry her
in the form of the worlds people,
Very well, but you love her!'
Yes
And you respect her!
yes
And cherish her as bone of your bone,
and flesh of your fleSh!'
Then, said the Governor, rising. by
the laws OF God and the Commonwealth
of Connecticut, | pronounce you 10 be
husband and wife,
The rawlings and rage of John and
Sarah were of no avail; the knot was tied
by the highest authority in the Stale.

WORKING on THE SABBATH.

There are many people who profess to
keep the Sabbath, according to the fourth
commandment, but who somehow or other
always find multitude of "works of ne
cessitY" TO be attended to. We have
seen capital anecdote lately, about g
family of such people. who were pretty
severely rebuked by a colored man in
their employ. The family were farmers.
One Sabbath morning, the colored man
was not up as usual, at breakfast. The
son was sent 10 call him; but Caesar said
they might no wait for him, as he did not
wish for any breakfast.
why, Cesar said the young man.
we shall want you as soon as the dew is
off, to help about the hay.'

ROMANTIC ADVENTURES OF SCHA.
MYL, A CIRCASSIAN CHIEF.


The first time we hear of Schamyl is in
1882. In that year, devout Mussulman,
Kasi- Mollah, held a chief command in the
bands of Lesghians, Tehetchentzes, and
other tribes of the eastern chain and the
steppes abutting on the Caspian and trav-
ersed by the Koisu. Kasi-Mollah's repu-
tation for sanctity was greater than that
which he acquired for the higher military
qualities, although dashing leader, and
individually one of the bravest of the
brave. He was brought to bay in 1889
by Gen. Rosen, at a place called Gumri

suddenly emerged from the fastness they
could no longer hold, and burst upon the
Russian troops with the shock of an ava
lanche, and the furious discordant yells Of
a troop of madmen For one or two brief
moments, itseemed that they must escape,
so far through the beleaguring circle OF
their foes did they cleave their desperate
way, before the momently-reco ranks
reclosed around them, and they fell by
twos and threes, wildly fighting to the

stabs. Kasi- -Mollah "died with his hand
