Gov. CUNNING AND THE MoRMoNs.-A cor
respondent at Camp Floyd, U. T., writing to
the Bulletin Oct 18th, says:
l have received from several sources in
formation that completely confirms the fact
mentioned by me, that the proposition to
Deputy Marshal (Mr. Rogers) was made by
the Governor to arrest certain parties accus-
ed of crime ard to use the DANTE band as a
posse to aid him. This proposition, it is un
derstood, was made by the Governor in con-
sequence of instructions from Washington tC
bring the criminals to justice The PROPOSE
tion was rejected. and the Governor has still
to let his boast that justice can be admins
! tered by the ordinary means at hand, stand
on record. while innocent good and brave
citizens of the United States are murdered
before his face by foreigners-generally "ref.
ugees from justice"
The criminals spoken of by the correspon-
dent, are the Mormons implicated in the
Mountain Meadows Massacre lie adds:
1t seems little strange that the President
should direct an examination (if he has so
done) in these matters at this time after all
the witnesses in one case have been removed
by his authority to Arkansas, others scatter
ed, others murdered, Others concealed; and
time given criminals to make away with the
evidences of guilt pointed out by Attorney
General Black in his letter to the District
Attorney published to the world. This. too
ust as Congress is about to meet. Is it fol
the purpose of saying that an examination is
being made, and thus delay Congress acting
on this question
If the correspondent is correct in his state
ments, and we believe he is, Governor c. hal
placed himself in q most unenviable position

6 Filtration of Married Women, >,

The innocent "hirtation' of married women
is one of the denominations of modern society.
Even desire for promiscuous admiration is
wrong in the wife. The love Of the one, and
his approval, should be all that she should de-
sire. Let her be ever so beautiful, it dis
gusting and appalling sight to see her decor
ating that beauty for the public gaze-to see
her seeking the attention Of the senseless fops
around her, and rejoicing in the admiration of
other eyes than those of her husband. Her
beauty should be for him alone, not for the
gaze of the fools that flutter around her. -
There is always among the sedate and wise a
sensation of disgust, when married lady at
tempts to ensnare and entrap young men by
a profuse display of her charms, or an un-
licensed outlay Of her smiles Such charms
and such smiles are loathsome to the indifier-
ent beholder-the trail of the serpent is over
them ALL
Such wives should know, if they do not
know already, that their influence over the
virtue, and then the prudence of young
men, is as deleterious as if they were the
most abandoned of women. They lead
them to believe there is no purity in the sex
that married virtue is but an outside show
and that delicacy or propriety are but
masks or outside dresses. The effect oi
their character is that of silent corruption,
swapping the foundation ofhonor, probity and
truth. Let them beware Let them reserve
their charms and the fascination of their fat
tering attentions for the husband to whom
they belong, and if they must be admired,

Letter from Gov. Wise.
New YORK, Aug. 4.

NEW YORK, Aug. 4.
The New York HSraM of this morning,
publishes a letter represented to be written
by Gov. Wise, to distinguished friend of his,
i'll which he says:
81 have apprchended all along that the
Tammany Regency would carry united dele
cation from New York to Charleston of whom
Douglas, know, is confident, but you may
rely on it that Mr.. Buchanan is himself can
didatc for denomination, and all his patronage
and power will be used to disappoint Douglas
and all other aspirants. Our only chance is
to organize by districts, and either to whip the
enemy or send two delegations. If that is
DONE or not done, we must still rely on uni
ted Virginia, and | pledge you that she, at
least, will be unit. Virginia, unit and
persistent and firm on a sound platform of
protection to all persons Of popular versus
squatter sovereignty, they must rally to her
support, as the South cannot adopt Mr.. Doug
las platform, as it is short cut to all the ends
of Black Republicanism he will then kick up
his heels; if he does or don't he can't be nom
mated, and the main argument against his
nomination is, that he cannot be elected if
nominated. If he runs as an independent
candidate, and Seward runs, and am nomi-
mated at Charleston, can beat them BOTH
Or, if squattcr sovereignty is plank of the
platform at Charleston, and Douglas is nomi-
mated, the South will run an Independent can
didate on protective principles, and run the
election into. the House, where then would Mr.
Douglas be? The lowest candidate on the
list, if have the popular strength. You
suppose it will itself fix the nomination; get
that and am confident of success
The letter is said to have created a tremen-
dous sensation at Albany.

like o ball of fire on that day, but though
| quite warm, no inconvenience was caused
| thereby until o'clock p. NJ, when suddenly
| a blast of heated air swept through our streets
followed by others, and shortly afterwards the
atmosphere became so intensely heated that
no human being could withstand its force all
sought their dwellings, and had to shut doors
and windows, and remain for hours confined
to their dwellings. The effect of such intense
and unparalleled heat was demonstrated by
the death of calves, rabbits, birds, &c. The
trees were all blasted, and the fruit, such as
pearsand apples, literally roasted on the
trees ere they fell to the ground, and the same
as if they had been cast on live Goals.
But, Strange to say, they were only burned
on one side-the direction whence came the
wind. All kinds of metal became SO heated
that for hours nothing of the kind could be
touched with the naked hands. The thermo-
meter rose nearly to fever heat in the shade.
Near an open door, and during the preva-
enae OF this properly called sirocco, the streets
were Tiled with impenetrable clouds of fine
dust, Or puverized clay.
Since writing the above we regret to an
nounce that the sirocco was not, as we had
hoped local; but that Los Angeles was visit
ed the same day by similar blasts, and more
intense possible than were experienced here;
and that not only the fruit trees are injured,
bat the vineyards are reported as nearly de-
stroyed. The general opinion that the cause
IS tire in the mountains is now abandoned,
and the belief is that there has been volcan-
lc eruption in the southern portion of this

The GOSPEL of RuSineSs.

The South County Journal, published at
Wakefield, r. l., essays an editorial headed
as above. The following truthful words are
worthy of being responded to:
"While the secular element in every SER
mon might perhaps be regarded excessive,
yet the assignment to it of more common
and prominent place in the pulpit, would not
be amiss These outstanding accounts are
runous things, both morally and financially.
Had the Gospel Of business been thorough
ly preached and practiced, we had escaped
the slough of bankruptcy, in which we are
now tlounderlng. But we can conceive that
minister who should preach the whole Cos
pei, as it bears upon secular affairs, upon
debt and credit, capital and labor, work and
wages, money and usury, speculation, bonds,
mortgages, collaterals, securities and consign-
ments, in a word, upon the perpendicular
right and wrong of trade and business of ey-
cry kind, would be immensely unpopular
both with the money-making and money
spending part of the community. But moth
ing is more needed than such an application
of the Gospel to the practical affairs of life,
and that, too, in the actual detail of trade and
finance, and business nterchanges of every
kind. A ministry that in these matters
would lay judgment to the line, and right
eousness to the plummet' would preach
Gospel of stringent honesty between man
and man, would do an important but negec-
ted part Of the work Of All evangelist"

THE BATTLE OF MAGENTA.
BY TOM TAYLOR.

Under the willows; in the trampled maize;
Midst up-torn vines and shattered mulberry
rows;
In rice fields, corn fields, dykes by dusty ways,
And cottage crotts, where the gold CONDITIONER
blows
Swathes of Deaths scythe welded for two long
The dead lie thick and still; foes are at peacewith
foes.
So many nameless dead! no need of glory
For all this blood so freely poured is theirs:
Yet each life here link'd many in its story
Of hopes and loves, and hates, of joys and cares,
VI these unhonor'd sleepers grim and CORY,
Who knows out of the world how much each with
him bears?
These were all sons sires; husbands or brothers.
Bread winners, most of them for homes afar,
This sick fathers stay; that a blind mothers;
For him in Paris, meath the evening star,
A loving heart its care in labor smothers,
III taught by arms OF price, how far they strike
how far!
Cry let the poor soul wrestle with the woe
Of that bereavement. Who takes thought of
her? -...l
Through the illumned streets the triumphs go;
Under her window waving banners stir,
And shouting crowds to Notre Dame that flow,
Hide, mourner, hide the tears which might such
triumphs blur!

Railroad mon are very legifin,atoly r,hIic

tinguished Presidents here, namely, Messrs.
Hubby, L'Hommedieu, Hubbard and Follet
Every one asked what they were doing here,
having long private talks together. But
hear that four Presidents meet in New York
every few days, and make new arrangements
and mend the st. Nicholas compact, (that is
what they call it, believe, but am sure
do not know what it means,) so suppose our
four Presidents were making arrangements
to help us to travel still easier, and thought
them delightful men for such Kindness. |

here, and, as if by chance, took stroll
past the room in which these four great men
were having their cOnclave; the weather was
hot and the door was open, and there they all
sat in their shirt sleeves, playing euchre and
sucking sulphur water through a straw. ]
