A Remarkable Phenomenon at Salt
Lake

Messrs. John NJ. Browne, J. V. Long,
Leo Hawkes. and G. Clements, made the
following statement under date of MAY,
26, to the Desert News:
This morning at twenty minutes past
one o'clock, we saw most singular ap-
pearance in The meridian, over this city.
A red stream OF light issued from The hea-
vens, as though the sun was enveloped
in a cloud. 1t resembled the tail Of a
comet, but in a few moments assumed the
shape OF sword Of massive dimensions,
lying horizontally, and pointing due east.
The shape was quite perfect, the hit
much brighter than The blade and variega-
ted like d rainbow. The moon stood
souihwes there was ring formed around
IL of reddish color, but not so bright as
the sword, through which ran two lines
forming a cross, the one pointing to q"
earth, extending. apparently, about two
feet below the circle On the west side
of the circle there as a smaller sword, oil
fainter colors, pointing northwest.
This appearance was kept up for fifteen
minutes, without any alienation, alter
which the ring around the moon assumed
the shape of belt, and then disappeared.
The color of the sword then grew lighter;
after which this magnificent sight dIsap
peared altogether a! sixteen minutes be-
fore two.
The atmosphere was perfectly calm
and the moon shone out as beautiful as
ever
II is impossible 10 describe the awiully
grand appearance Of this singular spec'a
cle--the sword hanging over this almos
deserted city, with its point ominously
extending toward the east, while the 81
lence of death reigned all around.

The Gold Fever.

Companies of young men are organl-
zing in Baltimore, Philadelphia and New
York, and also in number of Western
cities, with the view Of starting for the
gold mines OH Frazer river. The fever
is evidently on the increase and will ex-
tend over wide scope Of country before
it exhausts itself. Astonishing accounts
are given of rich veins on the one hand
and Of disappointment and deslilu'ion on
The other. A gentleman, writing 10 a
San Francisco paper, says tina, he has
been operating on the banks Of the golden
stream thee weeks and has not yet struck
the color. He says he has seen some of
the persons who have written glowing
stories Of gold diggings to the papers, and
they havn'. money enough to buy cold
dinner. There seems TO be dark side
TO every picture.

The editor OF the "Clarkes burg Regis

count of the Wheeling mans abolition

spotted traitor" the Register winds up
his thunder as follows
"And if he (he editor of the Intelligent

We have our eye just now on big, skin

The New Episcopal Church.

We have Inadvertently neglected 10
speak of, for some time past, the progress
of erection of the fine Episcopal Church
in this place. The exterior work has
been completed for some time past, and
the height of which, from the ground TO
the top of the sPre, is 1871 feet, upon
whish is fastened two balls Of large size.
The cupoa, as well as the main building,
is covered with slate. The edifce con-
tains several large dormer windows on
each side, in which is inserted beautiful,
diamond, stained glass. The building
is built Of cut stone. making it beautiful
and substantial structure, and the whole
exterior, being built in a novel and tasty
manner, presents a magnificent display.
The interior was Frescoed few days
ago by several gentlemen Of Baltimore,
which exhibits considerable artificial taste
and speaks well for the master workman
ship displayed.
We hope to see this Church brought TO
speedy completion, and when completed
it will prove handsome auxiliary Of
worship, as well as presenting beautiful
structure 10 the town.
