The Wifc's RemcmbrRnccr.

A young woman, feeling the approach Of
death, wrote the following and left 1t in the fam
ily Bible. where the husband found it year
after:
When this shall reach your eye dear George,
some day when you are turning over the relies
of the past | shall have passed away forever,
and the cold. white stone will be keeping its
lonely watch over the lips you have so often
pressed, and the sod will be growing green that
shall hide forever from your sight. the dust OF
one who has 80 often nestled close to your warm
heart For many long and sleepless nights, when
all besides my thoughts was at rest, have wrcs-
tied with the consciousness OF approaching death,
until Mt last it has forced itself upon my mind
and although to you and to others, II might now
seem but the nervous imagnings OF girl, yet,
dear George, IL is so! Many weary hours have
passed in the endcavor to reconcile myself to
leaving you, whom love so we'll, and this bright
world Of sunshine and beauty and hard indeed II
is to struggle on silently and alone, with the
sure conpictoa that am about to leave all forev-
or, and go down alone into the dark valley But
| know in whom | have believed, and leaning
upon His arm, fear no evil Do not blame me
for keeping even all this from you. How could
subject you, of all others, TO such sorrow Ms
feel at parting, when time will so soon make II
apparent to you | could have wished to live, II
only to be at your side when your time shall
come, and pillowing your head upon my breast,
wipe the death damps from your brow and usher
your departing spirit into its Makers presence,
embalmcd in woman's holiest prayer. But II Is
not so to he--and | submit. Yours is the privi-
lege of watching, through long and dreary nights.
for the spirits flight, and Of transferring my
sinking bend from your breast to my Savior's
bosom And you shall share my last thought /;
the last faint pressure of the hand, and the last
feeble kiss shall be yours; and even when flesh
and heart have failed me, my eye shall rest on
yours until glazed by death and our spirits shall
hold one last communion, and gently fading
from my vcw--the last Of earth-you shall min
gle with the first bright glimpse of the uniading
glories of that better world, where partlngs are
unknown.
Well do | know the spot dear George, where
you will lay me often have we stood by the
place and as we watched the mellow sun set as 1t
glanced in quivering flashes through the leaves,
and FURNISHED the grassy mounds around us with
stripes of gold, cnch perhaps has thought that
some day one Of us would come alone, and
whichever it might be, your name would be on the
stone. But we loved the spot aud | know you'll
love II none the less, when you the same quiet
sunlight linger and play among the grass thnt
grows over your Mary's grave. | know you'll
go often alone there, when am laid there, and
my spirit will be with you then, aud whisper
among the waving branches, Il am not lost, tm
gone 6efore.'

AFTER THE RAIN--The editor of the Mnrysvile
Express can paint beautiful picture, but he too
seldom dips his sklful pencil in the elegant CO.
lors of his fancy. Here is one OF his paintings-a
scene after the rain:
Rain has fallen in the valleys the snow has
been busy in the mountains, and. now that the
solemn curtains of the clouds have been drawn
aside, how enhancing the revealments that are
made The Lassen Peak that old familiar noun
tain that looked from afar of, upon the first
white tents that were pitched upon the site of
this delightful city, and has seen it grow and
strengthen until now, ,-rears itself aloft. still
higher as it were, and whittier, from the line of
peaks whose tops are at its base. Enwrapt in its
own unsullied purity, it looks as if it stood
time-honored sage, grey haired with centuries, to
instruct the ages as they passed. Still further
along the blue horizons sweep, the distant noun
tain-tops, snow-crowned, are blent into one broad
vision that spreads out into the air like cloud
land, bright, serene and beautiful! In the lap of
silence rest The Buttes,' brotherhood of hills,
and mathematical of warm, fraternal love. In
sunshine and in storm they stand together, an
isolated group, and teach their charming moral
lesson.

THE PERSIAN AMBASSADOR A FREEMAsON-I II is
stated that Feroukh Khan, the Persian envoy q,
has become Freemason, and has been received
into the lodge Of Sincere Friendship, belonging
TO the Great Orient of France. Freemasonry has
flate been steadily progressing in Mahommedan
countries, and particularly at Trebizonde and In
those parts of Turkey which borders upon Persia.
In Northern Africa Frcemasonry has made simi
lar progress. Now it is evident that any com
mon intellectual and moral ground between those
that profess different religions Ia worth some
thing in the interest Of goodwill and national
fraternity. II the FreemasOn can enter where the
missionary is driven back he merits well from
the rest Of mankind.

DEATH OF Mr.. CUsTs.-It becomes our painful
duty. says the National Mte'igeneer, to announce
the decease of the venerable Geo. Washington

Mr.. Gusts died at Arlington, near this city,
after brief Illness, on the morning Of the 10th
inst, in the nth year of his age. For several
years be had stood alone in his rotations to the
Father Of his Country, ever anxious, with hlial
reverence and affection, to illustrate his charac-

memory to bring forward an annual tribute to his
immortal worth. known and honored by his
fellow countrymen, his departure will awaken
universally profound regret.

California.

In the vast space between the orient and the
occidcnt, between the frozen regions OF the north
and south poles in the lands of the savage and
the civilized, the barbarous and enlightened,
California has been heard Of and her name has
become among them familiar as household
words Her gold has created mghticr revo-
lnton in the habits of men than all other causes
combined for the last twenty years. Her almost
fabulous wealth has lurcd the children of the
Howery land to her shores and scattered them
broadcast in our midst. The Greek has badc
adcu to his beautiful classic isle and turning his
back on his beloved Athens, steers his bark for
the FL Dorado of the West His hitherto hostile
neighbor from the Golden Horn aud lovely Bos-
phorus is by bis side, and hand in hand, with old
anmosities buried and ancient remembrances
consigned to oblivion, they look forward to the
realization of their brilliant visions in the drec-
ton Of the setting sen. The half breed from the
land of Cortcz and the anglicized Frenchman
from the British possessions, meet together in our
streets common adVenturcrs on au uncommon
soil.
The Hebrew and the follower of Mahommcd

expressly for their coming, and some day, Hope

Our contemporaries think that crisis il ap.

time that there should be change of some kind;
we care but little what it may be. With the
Lord to uphold the cause Of the just it cannot be
any worse than it has been. For ourselfw we are

in common with our co-reli ligionsts, have endured
for years past. We have borne the joke so long

we are tired Of hearing. We know that the Nor
mons in Deseret are nm industrious, peacable,
God fearing people, and that they have been most
foully abused and vilifed. All that they have
asked or now ask, is justice all they desire is
their guaranteed rights. These they never have
had but we. as one individual whose interests
are wholly identified with theirs, feel that the
time has arrived when it Is but right that they
be demanded, and if need be, contended for.
