MoRMoNrsM. -Thurlow Weed says, in the
Albany Jaurnal
"Within our recollection, Mormonism was
'a speck, not bigger than a mans hand The
original Impostor, Joe Smith, came to the
writer OF this article, only thirty-two years
ago, with the manuscript of his Mormon
Bible, to be printed. He then had bat one
follower, "a respectable and wealthy farmer
of the town of Macedon,) who offered himself
as security for the printing, But after read :
ing few chapters, it seemed such q tumble
Of unintelligible absurdities, that we refused
the work, advising Harris not to mortgage his
farm and beggar his family, But Joe crossed
over the way to our neighbor EIihu f. Mar
shall, and got his "Mormon Bible" printed.
We all know what tall trees the acorn
has produced, The twenty five hundred
Mormons who were driven from Nauvoo.
have multiplied into twice as many thousands
in Utah. The Saints have been multiplied
by accessions from al! classes and from all
nations. Their faith in attractive and Sc
ductive forms, has been presented to, and
accepted by, men and women throughout the
civilized world. Yes, notifying as it is to
our boosted Intelligence, Mormonism seeks
and finds believers among those who have
enjoyed the advantages of civilization, and
by whom the truths of revelation have been
rejected.
If these Mormons should be dispersed bv
the bayonet; if their city is conquered and
their temples destroyed !. II the inpostors or
their dupes fall in battle, we shall realize, in
its worst sense, the everlasting truth that tho
blood Of the martyrs is the seed of tho
Church. Instead of crushing out Nor.
monism, we shall fnd, in the head of every
deeapitated hydra, a thousand fresh ones
sprnging up"

FACTORY STRIKE.-It will be seen by the an
nexed notice that our good city does not escape
its share in the strikes" which have so extern
sively prevailed of late. In this case, we hope
that wise counsels, and conciliatory spirit and
disposition may prevail, and that the difficulties,
which disturb fE the moment may soon be har-
monized and removed Such, we believe, is the
best course for all parties. We have been accus
toned to look on this, as q model establishment,
both in the manner of its management and the
character Of its .workmsn If such men will
come together in harmonious spirit and make
mutual explanations, the jars that separate them
are more easily removed than is generally sup
posed. Mutual concessions soonLbrng those to-
gether that ATE wide asunder.

KANzAs.-The District Attorney Of Kauzas,
having been constituted, by Mr.. English's bill,
one Of the Board Of Commissioners for the reg,
ulation Of the election in Kanzas, and the in
cumbent being suspected of proclivities unfavora.
BILE to the Lecompton Constitution, he was
promptly removed But his successor not having
appeared, he was still in Office on the 25th, at
which, time he appeared at Lawrence with the
presiding officers Of the two houses Of the Legis-
lature, waited on Gov. Denver and they announce
ed their readiness to organize the Board. The
correspondent Of the New York Eueniug Post
says;
'sThe Governor objected without at first giving
his reasons. He finally, however, exhibited a
letterof instructions from Gen. Cass, the point
of which was contained in the following SEN
tence Yer viii not, of course, convene the
Board until the successor Of Mr.. Wisr shall have
been qualiied.L They stated in reply, that they
constituted a majority of the Board, aud were
determined to 60 ahead that Mr.. ,Wier was GER
tainly the Attorney General OF AanSas until MS
had not yet occurred, the Administrations, and not
they, were responsible for the delay.
Gov. Denver finally reluctantly acquiesced, and
meeting was held, at which It was agreed that
the first Monday in August 1.-THE I'd Of the month";
should be the day Of the election. 1t should be
observed that this Is the day OF the State election
In Missouri, when Il is supposed every pro-slave-
W vote will be needed at home TO defeat ths
Emancpa tonists."
We are not certain but this is an infringement
npen the rights Of the border ruiians who have
been accustomed to vote at home and in Kanzas,
and whe cannot be spared in Missouri on the day
fixed. Nobody else, however, will be likely 70
complain.
IL IL said that the Board will appoint two Free
State men and one pro slavery man, as judges Of
the election 10 each precinct. As the Free State
mea haro-an unQ questioned and very large ma
iority Of tlit votes, this arrangement Is fair.
Itis said that Gov. Denver, Disguised with the
Office imposed upon him Of attempting to force a
hateful form Of government upon tbs people, IN
tends 70 resign.

New YoRK AND Eur RAILRoAD.-The
semi animal report of the New York and
Erie Railroad, states that the receipts for the
last six months Lave been $2,523, l43, and
the expenditures $l,o6l,6l3. Besides the
expenses, the interest on the debt during
this time has been S96l,5o5. This shows a
deficiency on the, six months business Of
100000 The President says this defcien-
cy is owing entirely TO the depression during
the late panic.
The President also states his belief that at
the present time there is no railroad company
an the United States apaying concern.

RETURNED hoNE,-Mr. James Allen, son Of
Hon. Charles Allen of this city, returned home
on Thursday of last week, from yoynge up the
Mediterranean, which was undertaken for the
benefit of his health, and more especially to cure
a. disease of the eyes, which for years bafaed
the skill of the best physicians. We are happy
to learn that the anticipated good results of such
a voyage have been more than realized by CON-
plete restoration of eye sight and OF bodily
health.

PoLITIcs AND RELIGION often mingle to the
annoyance of.parties both in Church and
State. When the three thousand New Eng
land ministers sent their petition to Congress,
the hard shells were alarmed for the safety of
the church, and as it was time of little spir-
ituality they declared that God had abandon
ed those that failed to s'preach Christ and him
eruci6ed." The late revival has shown that
those churches most alive to the moral move
ments of the day were most blessed in the
number of converts that thronged their affairs.
Perhaps from observing this the hard shell
politicians have changed their tactics, and
without any horror for the connection between
politics and religion, they have this year made
dead rush to the anniversary meetings seek
ing to obtain control. 1t was surprising to
see the men whose souls were moved to action
in Boston LAST week. The Tract Society was
special object of their care and soictude,
and eyes unused to weeping save at a defeat in
bunker caucusses, raned down tears-pious
tears for the dear tract cause which they had
so much at heart. We are glad to see the
early fruits of the revival, and are fully as
sured that if it has really turned these men
so zealously to the cause of religion, it must
be thorough and genuine work.--Neso5ury-

The LATE ExPLosIoN.-The Barre Gazette
gives the following particulars of the terrible
powder mill explosion in that place, on Friday
afternoon:
''There were three explosions-the first being
in the Iron Mixing Mill, where Mr.. William
Bickford, one of the employees, was at work,
cleaning the wheel with copper hammer in the
usual mode, when spark from a.blow he struck
ignited the dust The building and machinery
were made complete wreck. Following this
explosion was that of the Kerneling and Glazing
Mill, about ten rods distant, containing about
one hundred kegs Of powder.
There is scarcely vestige of the building re-
manning to mark the spot where it stood Its
heavy metallic rollers, Of from three to four hum
bred pounds weight each, carried in different
directions, some of them ten or twelve rods.
Next followed the Press House, in which there
were only about twenty kegs of powder
Mr.. Bickford was found endeavoIing to extri-
cate himself from the whsel-pt of the Mixing
Mill He was in state of entire nudity, and his
body blackened and burned with powder He re-
tains his consciousness He is most shoeklngly
burned. He is SO years old.
At the instant of the explosion, Mr.. Potter
was leaving the Pulverizing Mill and imme-
diatey surrounded by the falling timbers and
boards, one of which struck him upon his shout
der, and he found it necessary to retreat for safe
ty, anticipating every moment the explosion of
the Dry House, in which we're over four hundred
kegs OF powder.
hole made through the walls Of this
building by one Of the flying timbers, and all the
glass, next to which the powder piled, was
broken. The ground for great distance was
strewn with burning materials. Pine trees, near
the Mixing and Kerneling Mills, from six to
twelve inches in diameter, taken off and
Frustrated, and the heavy timbers of the mills
splintered and thrown in every direction.
There were seven woTkmen upon and about
the premises at the time of the explosions, and
most fortunate, as we'll wonderful, is it, that
no more were injured, This is the fourth explo-
sion at these mills within the past few years"
The value Of the property destroyed is from
$4,000 to $4,000 The mills belonged to Messrs,
a. g. Fay, Potter, and Cilley.
1t is stated that Mr.. Biekford has since died.
