The AMERICAN CHALLENGE.-The London Sun
day Times OF the 9th September, notices the
challenge put forth by gentlemen residing in Sa-
vannah in the following terms:
The result of the Goodwood race has excited
the turfmen in Savannah, Georgia, and they pro
pose getting up race for ST 900 600 side, be-
tween the United States and England, to be run
in this country under such terms of agreement
as may fully test the superiority of the horses OF
the two countries They therefore make the fol-
lowing challenge, which is open to the world -
ITO run n match race of four miles and repeat,
at such times us may be agreed upon. post entries
for one hundred thousand dollars side, the hor-
ses to carry weight for age, to be run over the
Ten Brock Course at Savannah In order to in
duce their English friends to accept the banter,
they also propose to allow them five per cent. up
on the money slaked, or five thousand dollars to
pay the expenses of their horses, in case they
loose the race The editor of the Savannah
Georgian says, that the gentlemen by whose au-
thoriiy this challenge is publised are all men of
resbectability aud wealth and the money is rea-
dy to be covered by similar amount from Eng
land or elsewhere.
Should this challenge be made in an official
form We trust that it will be accepted. com
pany should be formed to carry out the proceed
ings aud perhaps Lord Zetlaud might be pre-
vailed upon to let himself be the champion of the
British Turf, aud send out SkTHlisheT to do bat
tie against the American celebrities.

LATEST FROM SALT LAEE,--The Marysville
Herald has Intelligence, by p""son who left
Col AleXander's camp on Hams tork, l40 miles
from Salt Lake. on the I'd of October he arrived
at Honey Lake on the 10th inst The messenger
thinks that before this battle has been fought
between the United States troops and the Nor
mons Brigham Young had sent u proclamation
to Col Alexander, declaring that he and his
troops could not enter the Valley of Great Salt
Lake the commander replied that he had orders
from the President OF the United States to go to
Salt Lake and that no other order would be re-
spected so that, in all probability, battle has
been fought ere this time.
In his proclamation dated September 18th,
Brigham Young sets forth the grievances the
Saints have suffered from the United States,
during the last 25 years, claims the protection
of the Constitution, retutes charges of immortality,
and after exhortng his people to the defence OF
their rights, concludes:
Therefore, |, Brigham Young. Governor and
Superintendent of Indian Affairs for the Territory
of L Utah, In the name of the people OF the United
States in the Territory of Utah lst. Forbid all
armed forces OF every description from coming
into the Territory under any pretence whatever.
3D. That all the forces in said Territory hold
themselves in readiness to march ut Il moments
notice to repcl any and all such invasions. Sd.
Martial law is hereby declared to exist in the
Territory on aud after the publication OF this
proclamation, and no person shall be allowed 10
pass and repass into or through or from this Ter
ritory without pass from the proper officer.

am far away, dear mother,
And tbs many weary day
Since kissed the tear-drop from thy cheek
And you blessed me on my way
Oft in the evening, mother,
Beneath the azure dome,
When the stars Of Heaven come peeping forth
think of thee and home.
In bright, holy visions, mother,
see thy calm, high brow,
Kissed by those silvery tresses,
Floating round thee now;
Since by the garden hedge we strayed,
How very long it seems,
But, mother, have been with thee
Each night in pleasant dreams.
Then thy rose-lit lips, mother,
In beauteous smiles they wreathe,
And for your absent children
A fervant prayer they breathe
A prayer that twines around our path,
And filings its halo there,
Or minglcs balm and dew of love
With every breath Of air.
| hear your soft voice mother,
That taught me how to pray.
And can see thine eyes fond glance,
Though am far away
Mother, | bear SAD, SAD heart,
I'm very lonely here.
And every day and hour but makes
Your dear words doubly dear.
The rainbow paints the melting cloud,
The sun shines. mother dear.
The brightest buds Of hope have burst
Arouud my pathway here
I've passed through many varied scenes
But the world is kind to me;
My little bark has never wrecked
Upon liie's troubled sea.
May laurel chaplct deck thy brow,
Aud spring e'cr greet thine eye,
The cup of JOY, all wrcathcd around
With flowers that never die
And, mother, may thy grief be like
The waves that kiss the shore,
And wander on. but leave behind
The surface smooth once more.

How THEY BURIED THE BABY.--A child died
al Rocky Bar. in Sierra County it was the mo.
theirs first born. and the miners buried il by
moonlight. 1t was in a wild and solemn looking
place. where at night save the riverroarlng, 81
ience is so deep that one can almost hear it. A
lady of Downieville Mrs Caroline Pond, wife Of
the Presby yterian Minister at that place described
the burial scene in language from which We will
not detract by word of remark:
1t was a bacy's funpral-a baby who had
opened its sweet eyes on earth but for few short
weeks. then weariy closed them, to look up next
into angel eyes--to smile next at the music of
angel voices The little form must be laid away
from our sight in rough and strange land ; yet
among the strangers there are kindly and careful
hands to smooth its narrow bed. There are
hearts among the hardy band that stands around
the bier, thar are deeply and tenderly touched at
the sight of that dead baby and sorrowing mo-
ther AS gently as father would bear his
child, a stalwart man bears out the small coffin,
and the mOurners follow him over the rough
path across the rocky river b, d, and up the steep
bank, where lies the rude burial ground Of the
miner. Nice hands have followed the little
grave, and gently they lower down the dead to
its place of rest. With they cover the coffin,
and softly lay in the earth, lest it should strike
too heavily over the precious dead and upon the
torn hearts of the mourners.
1t is touching to see strong men, who have
looked on terrible deaths and become familiar
with danger and accident in their worst forms,
bending so ptyingly over that baby grave.
Dear babe, il thy mission on earth was but to be
buried, has it not been rich in blessing? Thy
burial scene has borne back the hearts and mem.
ores of those who have looked on thy still face,
to the innocent loving faces they left long ago
1t has brought back many forgotten scene where
holy Influences and gentle thoughts have shed
upon life's pathway a light whose glory has new
er faded. Sleep soft, dear child, and chld-likc
on his love repose, who giveth his beloved

die it was freezing In the SHOWS of Valley Forge
and starving in the Southern marshes. But an
old man rose trcmblingly, in the country of the
oppressot, and bade Liberty live and was himself
carried thence to die Then the fugitive came
down from the mountain aud up from the swamp,
aud, standing on the eastern verge of n great re-
public, bade defiance unto death. Then Liberty
made u covenant with time That until the great
cataract of the North had ceased its roaring and
until the Gulf stream Of the South had lost its
mysterious way, so long Liberty should not die.
