End or "A Mormon Patriarch.

The death Of Elder Pratt by the hand of a
man whose wife he had seduced, has been
briefly mentioned. Elder Pratt was one of
the most intelligent and influential of the
apostles of Mormonsm. second only to
Brigham Young himself lie boasted his
harcm of nine wives, and was returning with
his ninth to Utah when he was overtakcn
and shot by Hector II. Mclean. her former
husband. Mr.. and Mrs Mclean. were rcsid-
ing at San Francisco. Cal, when Pratt made
their acquaintance, and succeeded in convert
ing Mrs Mclean to his beastly faith and then
to his own beastly uses She fled with him
to Utah, leaving her three children behind.
The children were afterwards placed in charge
of her parents at New Orleans. whence she
and Pratt had just kidnapped them and were
taking them by the overland route to Utah.
The husband followed, and overlook them at
Van Buren,, Arkansas, where he had them
arrested, but they were discharged after ex-
animation by the L. S. marshal. Pratt i'm
mediately left Van Buren, on horseback, and
the injured husband followed him and shot
him, about eight miles out of the CITY, and he
died in couple of hours.

releasing his hold upon the young mans
throat, us that it ~

while his voice betrayed something like in
dignation which had been until then choked
down ut strikes me, sir, that YOU have

which, and taking his hat, his gloves, his
comb, and hair dye, the young gentleman
stalked out of the house, leaving the Mug
ginses alone.
1t is not necessary to the conclusion of this
veritable history that we should state whether
the magistrates did or did not assess fine
upon Muggins for assault and battery
That night. as Muggins lay by the side of
his darling Arabella, he confessed all his fault
and begged her forgiveness. No woman
ever yet refused to forgive man of jealousy
On her part. Mrs Muggins acknowledged
that she dyed for him, and declared that she
would rather dye a thousand times than be
frightened in the manner she had been.
But my darling Arabella." said Muggins
as he attempted to kiss away her tears, "pra!

l.. Kilbourn City" from Byron kibourn of
Milwaukee, President CT the Milwaukee &
Labrossc Railroad, which runs through the
infant city. 1t contains now about twen-
ty-6ve buildings, and lots of fifty feet
front are held, and sold too, at from $500 to
$500 on the supposed business streets,
while residence lots range from 500 to 5000.
The place has really a beautiful site, covered
now entirely by a Mick opening of heavy
white oaksD and has clements Of growth suf-
ficient to expand it into a thriving town of
from two to five thousand inhabitants. But
it has not reasonable chance of ever having
more than that, and it does not seem very
probable that both will ever advance enough
upon the present prices to make it en- object
to invest money in them. At any rate am
not disposed to venture.
Money is becoming more and more difficult
of being got every dav. Forty per cent. is
perhaps as common rate of interest as any,
have heard of five per cent. month being
paid. Business is remarkably dull. Many
of the merchants in this village say they are
not doing enough to pay shop rent. Doubt
less a part Of this stagnation is owing to the
extraordinary Winter and the late Spring.
Provisions of all kinds. with the exception of
corn and wheat arc higher than in Vermont.

When at Springfield was surprised to no
tice by the paper that snow fell at a certain
place in Your County on the line of the rail-
road on Sunday, and that it lay on Satur
day two feet deep" As the date must have
been the 10Th and 18th, and had not only
passed and repassed without noticing the cir
cumstance, but on the contrary had found
some of my friends engaged in planting corn
the report seemed to need confirmation. as
my number seven magnitcrs had not enabled
me to detect single fake of snow on the
route. As your County exceeds Worcester

ROwDYIsM REBUKED.-Cnder this head
the Granite State Wing, published at Leba-
non, n. H., gives an account of disturbance
in which large number of boys and some
men (?) participated, at that village, last week.
1t seems that one of the citizens of that town
had incurred their displeasure in some way,
and, on the night in question, his house was
assailed by these rowdies in violent man
ner. The object of their rage, however, did
not fall into their hands, and they left, after
heaping indignities upon the house and its
occupants. The town authorities ferreted out
the offenders, and some were bound up for
trial, while others shutting the battle afar
off, commenced an expeditions foot-racc into
Vermont
1t will be reoollected that only few weeks
since similar case of rowdyism occurred in
this State. and the occupant of
the house. discharging heavily loaded gun
into the crowd, killed one of the rioters on
the spot.

Nickel.

What is nickel? is question that has been
asked by thousands and will be asked by thou
sands more when told that it is one of the
components of the new cent Nickel is met
al of fine white color like silver, and like
that metal, leaves a white streak when rubbed
upon the polished surface of hard stone. 1t
is softer and more malleable than iron but is
rendered brittle by heating. Its ductility is
such that it may be drawn into wire 1-50 of
an inch in diameter, and it so malleable that
it may be rolled into plates 1900 of an inch
in thickness.
1t is capable of being masnetized like iron.
and answers the same purpose for magnetic
needles. 1t combines readily with gold, tin
and copper, forming with copper a whitish,
hard, and somewhat brittle alloy. which rusts
on exposure to the air With silver and mer-
curry it will not unite at all, and with iron not
without difficulty. With zinc and copper, in
the proportion of twenty five parts of nickel
to twenty-five of zinc and fifty of copper, it
forms German silver.
The ore of nickel is of a reddish brown col
or like that of copper, and for many years it
was considered by mineralogists to be an ore
of copper. But as none of that metal could
be extracted from it, the miners in Germany.
where it was first found, called it kupfernick-
ell or false copper, and when its true charac-
ter was at length discovered. the omission of
the k"pter part of its designation left it with
its present namc-nickeL About the middle
of the last century. the celebrated Cronstcdt
instituted series of experiments which re-
suited in establishing its character as a new
metal. but it has been of little commercial i'm
portarcc till the growth of German silver
manufactures created a demand for it. which
will be multiplied many fold By the use OF i,
IN or national currency. The principal mines
Of it are in Germany. France and England
