From the San Francisco Pacific, Nov. S,
Brigham YOumg's Plans.

The following letter written by wo-
man at Salt Lake City to her husband,
who was on visit here:
SALT LAKE CRY, Sept. 4, 1857.
Ny DEAR HUsBAND.-I have just re-
ceived your letter to me, and also read one
YOU wrote to sister -. l am much
disappointed, for 1 thought you would say
positive you was coming home this fall
| think if YOU understood the spirit of the
times in the Valley you would want to be
here.
All the men are preparing for war, both
old and young. Some companies have
gone out to meet the enemy, more are ready
to 90 when called for.
The carrying companies are all coming
in; what they cannot bring with them they
destroy. They have burned hundreds of
tons of hay at the stations.
Brother Brigham says if the brethren
will stand by him, he will never let the
Gentiles come into the Valleys He says,
before they shall come be will burn every
house, fence and haystack, and flee to the
mountains. We will make Moscow of
the cities and towns in these Valleys, and
Potter's Field of every canon that our
enemies come into.
Brother Kimball says all the women
must have dirk knife, so l wish you
would bring me one.
You must bring plenty of powder and
lead. Brother Brigham says, if every
Saint will live for their religion we will
never be driven from these Valleys. We
shall stay here until the time comes to 60
to Jackson county. We shall no more be
called the traitors of Utah, but the free
people of Deseret.
Yours affectionately.
1t would seem from the reference to
Jackson county that the Mormons still en-
tertain the idea that they will return in
triumph to jackson county Missouri, from
whence they were driven in 1888.
The letter from which we make the fore
going extracts is bona fde one, and We
have no doubt gives a correct idea, of the
intentions of Mormon rulers, so far they
have been made known to their followers.

more clearly or distinctly presented to to the
people than it was the present moment Should
this opportunity be rejected, she may be in
volved for years in domestic discord, and possi-
bly, in civil war befoIe she can again make up
an issee now so fortunately rendered and again
reach the point she has already attained; Kan
sas has. for some years, occupied too much pub
lie attention: it is high time this should be di-
rected to for more important objects. When
once admitted into the Union, whether with or
without slavery, the excitement beyond her
own limits, will speedily pass away, and she
will then, for the first time, be left she ought
| to have been long since to manage her own af-
| fairs in her own way. If her constitution on
| the subject of slavery or any other subject be
| displeasing to a majority of the people, no hu-
man power can prevent them from changing it
within brief period. Under these circumstan-
ces it may, will be questioned, whether the
peace and quiet of the whole country are not Of
greater importance than mere temporary tri-
umph of either of the political powers in Kan
sas, should the Constitution without slavery be
adopted by the votes of majority,
The right of property in slaves now in the
very small, but it were greater the provision
would be equally just and reasonable. These
slaves were brought into the Territory under
the Constitution of the United States, and are
now the property of their masters. This point
has at length been finally decided by the high
est Judicial tribunals of the country and this on
the plain principle that when a confederacy of
sovereign States acquire new territory nj their
joint expense, but equally and justice demand
that the citizens of one and all of them shall
have the right to take into it whatsoever is
recognized as property by the common constitu-
ton. To have summarily confscated the prop
erty in slaves already in territory would have
been act of gross injustice and contrary to the
practice of the older States Of the Union which
have abolished slavery.

A correspondent OF a London paper
writes from Paris thus:
The last grand ball Of the Tuilleries
was more than usually splendid. The
Empress, whose dancing until a late
hour with great animation seems to
contradict a rumor which was becom-
ing pretty general, as to fresh pros
poets OF an addition to tho Imperial
family, was dressed in pink Grape,
with a tunic Of English point-lace, the
front of the corsage covered with en-
eralds and diamonds, with the back
hair attached by and falling in ring.
lets over the comb. The dress, how
ever, that perhaps attracted the great
est attention, was that Of the beauti-
ful Countess C&stigliono, consisting OF
a gown Of red satin, covered with
b0uiHOHae8 Of red Grape below, and
a lace tunic above. The couture was
composed oftwo red feathers, fastened
in the middle at the point Of the fore
head and turning backward round the
ears. This lady wore at the fancy
ball Of Madame Welewski a costume
yet more remarkable. The robe and
corsago were of cloth Of silver, the
perfectly tight and considerably
with extremely short
sleeves, and no ornament Of trimming
whatever but a large diamond heart

On the head five diamond
hearts were held together by an arrow
;ranspiercing them, and a flowing veil
completed the costume.

The Material for the SebastOpOI
Expedition.

The N. Y. Journal of Commerce, in
speaking Of the expedition about to
sail for Sebastopol to raise the sunken
ships, alludes to some Of the articles in
preparation as follows:
The chains now being forged at
Pottsville, Penn, are much larger
than those spoken of by the English
papers as making for the steamships
1dyiatjc and Gr6at Western, being
one hundred yards in. length, weigh
ing three hundred pounds to the link,
and capable of sustaining a strain OF
five hundred tunS. The iron sheaths
through which the chains will pass,
and which will be placed on the tim
Der docks, to be sent out from PhiIa-
delphia on the 18th inst, will weigh
each 2G tunS.
The submarine operation will be
performed by the aid Of Gowan's di-
wing bell, a contrlvancc never yet ex,
hibitcd in this country, and his armor.
which was used with success in the
raising Of the U. States steamer Ms
S0uJi,in the recent eXtrication OF a safe
from the sunken boat atlantic, in
Lake Erie, and on several other oc.
caSions. Mr.. Gowan expects to gel
up at least forty Of the vessels whole.
The rest he will blow to pieces, the
Russian Government contracting to
furnish the powder.
Several engineers will leave for Sc
baotopol at an early day, to make the
necessary surveys, construct the Gals,
sons, and have everything in readi-
ness for the reception and immediate
operation Of the machinery when it
arrives.

or CHRONIC DIsEAsE.

TREATMENTO OF CHRONIC DISEASE,
nRS. /. 81 W. BARBER, will devote special
~ attention 10 the treatment Of Chronic Dis
cuses. And believing. as we do, that no Physic-
ian who is engaged in the active duties Of a gen.
eral practice, has time to give these diseases that
attention which they must lave, if they are sue
cCSstully treated, one Of this firm will hereafter
devote his exclusive attention to this branch Of the
profession; and from our experience heretofore,
we can assure the public that a great majority Of
Chronic Diseas c. can be cured. Below we mention
a few that we treat with success.
Dyspepsia, Rheumatism Liver Complaint, Ep-
ilepsy. Scorfula, Spinal diseases, Uterine Affect
ions. Cancer. Fistula, Plies, Ulcer, Diseases Of the
Eye. Skin, Kidneys, &c. In the treatment Of
Cancer, we do not rely on the knife, for the reas-
on that it will not permanently cure this disease.
We have for several years treated Cancer by the
local application Of medicines that will remove
the entire cancerous mass, and also the roots,
( (which cannot be removed with the knife then
heal the ulcer with suppuration. Every case Of
Cancer, unless it has been standing so long that
the system has given way and become impTegna-
ted with the disease, can be speedily and perma-
ncntly cured this way.
We treat Fistula upon the same plan, except
where the case is obstinate, when We have recourse
to the ~ligature, and with complete success in eve
Ty case.
Persons wishing treatmcntfor Cancer or Fistu-
Ia. should come to Chillicothe, where they will
have to remain n short time, as they should be
seen daily while under treatment. We would
also call especial attention to the treatment of dis
eases of the Throat and Lungs, by the Inhalation
of medicated Vapcr; the old plan of taking tho
medicine into tie stomach has always been I'M
satisfactory. but by Mcdicatcd Inhalation we can
bring the Medicatod Vapor in contact with the
Mucous Lining of the air passages and air cells,
and tits very efficient in removing diseases of
those parts. For remoyeing diseases eff
the Throat, Bronchitis and Asthma, this
treatment is almost inlaliible.
We make extensive use Of Electricityiin the
treatment of all nervous diseases. Paralysis will
be greatly benefited. and if of recent standing,
permanently erred by its use.
As above stated. one member Of this firm will
give his eSclusive attention to the treatmen ofthis
class of diseases. lie will visit patients, when de-
sired, in this or the adjoining counties. The
other will always be found, when not absent ion
professional business, at their Office and residence
on Paint street, nearly opposite tho Market House
Chillicothe, Ohio.
