How The IOrmOns Were Conquer


ca
The news that the Mormons had surrendered
came SO sudden here it could be scarcely cred
tied at first There is now no doubt Of its
truth. We happend to learn, by unusual, means,
this morning how it had occurred. 1t was in
this wise:
Brigadier General Sargent, is we'll known,
undertook to raise an Ohio regiment of volun-
teers for the Utah service. The boys readily
responded to his call and the General soon
found five companies from other parts of the
State at his service.-lIe Immediately posted
off to Washington to press the acceptance OF his
regiment by the President. Old Buck received
him with much graciousness and told him that
he could prepare to clean out the Salt Lake
rebels
Now it happened that the old Mormon sim
ner who represents Utah in Congress, hear o
this matter, and being posted in regard to the
fire eating qualities and dare devil characters
tics of Ohio volunteers, he didn't like it bit
He concluded to have parley with the Geher'
al, sent for him to come and have glass OF
wine and smoke at his private room. The
General went down, taking with him for pro-
lection his ferocious moustache, which he has
carefully cultivated since the Utah fever broke
out.
How d'do?' said the Mormon to the General.
WELL l thank you, was the reply. How
are all your wives and children? interrogated
the General.
All we'll 'cept six. My ninth, sixteenth and
thirty first wife, and three of my seventy two
children were rather under tho weather at last
accounts from Utah. But they tell me, Gener-
all, you're going out there to fight with my
people,
'Sorter,' replied the chieran twisting his
moustache.
is that sure?
AS powder can be turned into smoke
'EIavc you got a regiment?
Ave, and as valiant set of braves as ever
shouldered guns
Where are they from"
Ohio
You don't say! That's bad for old Brigham
From what part of Ohio may ask
Half from the rural town, and t'other hal
from Cincinnati! That's moustrous. Our wo
men and children won't stand n bit Of chance
General; this wars got to be stopped
Certain it is, replied the General All thai
is wanted is the Ohio regiment. Well pepper
old Brigham and his hosts into peace in a jiffy.
Hum replied the Mormon Congressman, a
he went off into deep meditation.
| What further happened at this conference, W
do not know but M. C. from Utah instantl
de ,patched messenger to Salt Lake, inform
ing Brigham Young that the Ohio regimen
with five companies from Cincinnati, had beef
accepted and that he had better come down a
once. And Brigham, like sensible man, has
come down. Though our gallant boys have no
been brought into service, to them belongs tn
credit Of conquering the Mormons. Hurrah
for the Ohio voluuntcers.- Gin. Times.

From the Genessee Farmer.l
Cutting and Curing lay.

According to the thirty years Of close obser
vation made by the writer of this article, there
is but one method of curing clover hay which
pays well for the labor, and that shall describe
shortly.
Observation has taught me that the best time
for cutting clover is when two thirds Of the
blooms begin to turn brown. At this stage it
makes the best hay, and is not sappy enough to
reduce much in the curing process.
When the clover is in the above stage, cut it
as rapidly as possible; but never cut when there
is dew or rain.water on the clover. Let the
green clover be put in small shocks as fast as
cut down, so that the sun might not wilt it
When enough is cut and shocked for a large
stack, hall up and stack as fast as possible
The stack should be some fourteen feet at the
base and sixteen or eighteen feet high, so put
up as to make it the shape ofa cone. With a
hay fork let one hand throw up the green clover,
while two hands stack and trample 1t, so as to
make it as near air-tight as possible. Every
foot in hight should have about one quart of salt
sprinkled regularly over it. This will require
about seventy ty-fve pounds to the stack. In
finishing, top it off and rake it down so as to
turn rain. In ten or twelve days it will be-
come wet ond hot and smoke like coal kiln,
so as to have all appearances of rotting but in
ten or fifteen days, more, it will cool off and be
found dry bright, sweet hay.
If the clover were allowed to wilt before
! stacking, the hay would be dark and mouldyi
but, fput up green, the hay will be bright green
and sweet and free from mould. This process
preserves all the leaves Of the clover, certain tc
be lost by any other process; and it also pre-
serves all the volatile constituents of clover
when it is sure to be lost when it is cured in thu
sunshine or open air.
The whole management may be summed up
in few word. Cut and stack free from mois
ture, in the perfectly free state salt it well, anC
make the stack as near air tight as hard tramp
ing can make it. +. Ii. Il.

JimLaue, OfKansas.

Is getting his deserts, right and left The Chi
cago Taibuae, prominent Republican journal,
experiences sensation of gratitude to Provi-
dence' that it can at last speak its mind freely
Of General Jim Lane, of Kansas, and says the
reason why it could never do so before was its
ear that "a righteous cause would suffer by the
exposure Of a vagabond." 1t admits having
known all along that Lane was "a pestlent and
incendiary demagogne;" yet, strange to say,
its supposed duty to its party sealed its utter
ance. But now that he is murderer, and
therefore no longer available as a leader and
candidate for the United States Senate, the
Tribune with an immense feeling ofrelief, casts
him off.
The poor devil is in bad way in these latter
days 1t is stated that his surgeon has told Lant
that amputation of his leg is necessary but tina
he refuses to submit to the operation. The bal
struck on the Acshy part Of the leg, near tht
knee, was turned aside by the bone. and passec
up into the thigh, where it is now lodged
We would not rejoice over the misfortune'
of any one, but really we think that the country
Kansas and the "vagabond" himself would sut
fer no serious injury if the amputation shoulC
take pace just where the Dutchman prescribe'

Will there be Flowers ia Heaven

Brightly the sun Of a clear, cold December
day shed its slant rays through the half-closed
blinds of sick room, glowing upon the rosy
curtains, and playing in fantastic shape upon the
carpet, but brought no gladness to the sorrow
ing hearts OF the mourners there. mother

the bedside Of her darling first born son; and
that dark. eyed little girl moved slowly about

Sleep" For hours he had lain with closed eyes
and white lips, and breath so short and low
that it scarce stirred the white cover. The fe-

and they told us that our Charlie must die.
Sunlight faded, and in the gray twilight we
sat watching the little one passing so gentle from
our circle. AT last the eyes slowly opened, and
soft voice spoke the sweet words:
Mother, how long till summer time?'
"Six months, my darlingT'
Then your Charlie will not see the flowers
again. Don't cry, mamma, must go pretty

crossed his white hands over his still heart, ant

A E:AifIAflll Picture.

The Washington correspondent of the Phila-
delphia Lnqmrer staunch Republican sheet,
express, very fully, his opposition, as party in
Congress. He says:
"I am completely out Of patience with the
opposition as party, in Congress. The events
of the last few days prove them to he without
leadership, without union, without consistency,
and, had almost said, without good sense, Can
dor compels me to the assertion and it is time
that the fact was known that proper CAFE may
be exercised in selecting their successors next
fall"
Without leadership, without union, without
consistency. without good sense! Such are the
qualities which a close observer and friend says
the opposition, as party in Congress- are def
cient IN. We would ask, how could it be other
wise, viii party made up of the elements that
composed the present opposition? They have
no settled principles, and of course, can have
no leadership. They are discordant body, and
can, therefore, have little union and less con-
sistency, AS to their want ofsense, we viii
concede that without hesitation. "The cohc
sive power of public plunder' is the only bond
that can deep them together. TO secure The
offices by beating the Democracy is the hight o.
their ambition. The good of the country, the
perpetuatiou OF fireat princilcs O. government
or the permanency fthe American Union, arc
with all such, matters OF secondary Importance
We join the correspondent OF the Inquirer in no
ping that proper care may be exercised by th'
people in selecting successors to the opposition
members Of Congress this fall Let them Sc
lect good, reliable Democrats, and thereby ac
quit themselves ola buty every good citizen owe

A woman can Keep a Secret.

1t has been demonstrated in Schuyler county
Illinois, where an elderly couple in the vicinity
of Rushyille, had beautiful daughter--an only

them for work, and they employed him. His
amiable qualities and industry soon won their
confidence. lie had been in their employ six
months, when the farmer having businese at
Bardstown, sent the young man there to attend
to it; and as the daughter lad some purchase to
make she was allowed to go with him. At night
they returned. Affairs went on for eighteen
months, the only change being the pleasure with
which the old people discovered that the young
folks were becoming attached to each other,
and they looked forward to their marriage as
most gratifying. Being considered as "lovers, =
the young people were allowed to "sIt up TO.

Strange Accounts from Liberia.

The Farmville, Va, Journal notices the re-
turn from Liberia Of two slaves who were c.
mancipated by the late John Watson, Of Prince
Edward county. The sum of $4,000 was left
by Mr. Watson to carry sixty Of his slaves %
that republic. They give very discourasing
ter they arrived. The Journal says:-
"Before leaving the ship the agent ofColoni-
zation Society induced the emgrants to pur
chase quantities. Of cheap calico, brass jewelry,
&C., assuring them that they would need such
articles in their new home, but on their arrival
they had been deceived and defrauded out
of their money The provisions carried out for
their support for the first six months were sold
daily be orc their eyes, and they were compell-
cd to buy provisions every day, often of very
inferior quality and insufficient in quantity
The agent employed by the society would sell
to the bakers, and the bakers to the emigrant-
their own provsions--at exorbitant prices, the
agent receiving part of the profits.
On their arrival they only receiveda a half acre
of land instead of the five acres promised. They
found provisions at exhorbitant prices, and Q
GOOD deal Of bad treatment besides, from the
authorities. They aege that the President
the colony, not engaged in the slaOe trade, con-
nives at it."
They have returned to slavery, believing tha

Hon. Charles Summer.

From the Sunday tlns, June 18th
The Tribune of the 11th devotes nearly n
column to labored defence Of this gentleman,
and the last childish letter written by him to
his constituents prior to his leaving this coun-
try on another tour, at the expense OF his coun-
try.
We think is quite time that this stale nom
sense about Mr.. Summer and his injuries should
have an end and, if the editors of the Tribune
only lived in our everyday world instead of
Brisbanes Utopia, they would soon learn that
this most ridiculous Of hutnbugs fairly stinks in
the nostrils of the American people Charles
Sumner is rapidly acquiring the reputation ofa
Charlatan, who, preceded by his servant in mot
ley, with trumpet and drum cries injuries
and sufIerings in the cause of freedom, as salea-
BILE wares, for the purpose Of putting money in
his purse. II the Tribune is desirous of blow
ing that trumpet, we have no special objections,
but we do demure to false notes. Charles Sum
inner was not courteous at the very outset of
his senatorial careef lie commenced with an
assumption Of 'mettal cultivation and scholar
ship" which he deemed sufficient to otershad-
ow all his compeers. He exhibited an amount
ofpedantic conceit especially distasteful to all
who were compelled to associate with him. and
was constantly thrusting his opinions and his
views, id season, upon the Senate For these
he was viewed with contempt by MANY Of his
fellow senators.
Charles Summer dill assail private character;
and in the most venonious manner For this
he was foolishly assaulted by hot, headed young
man; lit nor 'bedten jl5ody, sehsetess and 10 the
uer5e Of he gfaGe" We saw hitn five minutes
after the hoggng was administered, and he was
then cohversihg as nationally as can any one Of
/ the editors ofthe Tribune.
This quackery has gone FAR enough and our
opinion is that, if Mr. Summers vacant chair
isa perpetual speech" to his constituents, 1t will
have the effect Of warming them against the re
election of man who absents himself fromSen-
ate, and noglects the duties which he is paid to
perform, on the plea of ill-health, which he
claims to have been the result Of injuries no
, greater than are every day received by little
boys in their street fights, and form which they
recovered by the application ofa mud plaster.
We have no quarrel with Mr.. Sumner, but
we confess ourselves sickcned by these persis-
! tent attempts on the part Of a portion Of the
J public press to present as q martyr one who il
, simply political humbug 4 III

=
Let every School Director in EEar-
riSOM county read the following,
and profit thereby.
The following from the Boston Herald gives
the particulars, ofa sad case, in which the ty-
ranny ola teacher nearly provoked q pupil to
commit suicide:
"a little GIRL aged twelve years, named Eliz
abeth Newell, is an attendant upon the Frank
lin School, Grotton street. Her father repre-
sents to us that the child has been severely
chastised by her teacher several times and last
Saturday, having received punishment the day
previous she eigned sickness, and remained at
home. On Monday school was not kept, and
on Tuesday her fear Of returning to school was
so great, that she poured out teacup full ol
burning fluid and drank it. She was thrown
into paroxysms, and some of the ladies OF the
house Immediately administered to her strong
dose of lobela emetic which probably saved
her life. She was in delirious state until
Wednesday noon, and is still seriously i'll, under
medical treatment.
"Her father on questioning her, gathered
from her statements and those of her schoo
companions, that she was impelled to the rasf
attempt upon her life by the punishment she
had received, and the reputation she had ac
quinted in the school for being stupid child,
below her companions in mental capacity"
We fear that too many Of our teachers play
the despot in the school room, are pctulant
passionate, harsh and cruel. The office is on
of great responsibility, and it should be filled
by no one who cannot control himself or her
SELF and who does not thoroughly understand
human nature.

THE UNEMpLoYEp IN THE WESTERN CITE

THE UNEMPLOYED IN THE WESTERN CITIES.
Buffalo, Chicago, and other Western Cities, it
appears, are overrun with laborers and mechan-
les, who are unable to find employment, the re-
suit of the collapse Of the credit system and
bank expansion. In the former place, last week,
several hundred of this class paraded the streets
demanding "work or bread" In Chicago, the
demand for labor for poor people has been SO
great that the street commissioners have been
enabled to supply every man with but two days
work in the week, at seventy-ive cents per
day. 1t is now thought best to cut down wages
to fity cents and put ono-third more men into
the city service. AT fifty cents per day says
the Democrat, the city will be overwhelmed
with applications for labor.
