From UrAH.-Aecounts from the Mormon
Territory represent that apostacy is rapidly
on the spread among the Saints, and that an
expectation prevailed that large numbers of
them, disguised with the Church and its
practices, would leave the Territory in the
spring. The charge of Judge Cradlebaugh,
in the Third Judicial District Court at Pro-
vo, had created u great sensation, from the
fact that he had recommended to the Grand
Jury searching investigation into the
Mountain Meadow massacre Of 1851, the
Springfield murders, and other offences at
tributed by the Saints to the Indians, but
the perpetrators of which are well known to
have been white men. 1t is stated that the
captain of the large party which was so
ruthlessly murdered in 1867, and the only
one who escaped, is now at Camp Floyd,
and will act in concert with the authorities
in ferreting out the authors of the most
wholesale massacre ever committed on our
continent @ i-+

The CooLIE TRADE IN CUBA. at the last
dates from Havana, a French ship had land
ed four hundred and seventy-five coolies
from Macao. She was out one hundred and
twenty-five days, and ninety unfortunates
died on the passage. OF The remainder
about eight died every day from the time
she entered Havana harbor Returns prove
that from the period of the Inauguration of
the coolie apprenticeship system forty-four
thousand FIVE hundred and forty mine China
men were shipped for Cuba, of which num-
Der thirty-seven Thousand seven hundred and
fifty-fye were landed alive, showing a NOR
tality at sea of six thousand seven hundred
and ninety-four-a little over fifteen per
cent. The commercial man who put the
plan in operation had, however, realized
some hundreds of thousands of dollars by it,
and retired from business. One of the lar
gest iron buildings in the world was going
up in Havana under the direction of Mr..
James Bogardus, of Centre street, New York.
1t was destined for q warehouse for the
Credit Mobilier Company, and would be
eight hundred feet long and four hundred
and fifty feet wide. All the mechanics and
teamsters employed were from New York.

HrxpERsoN AND NASHVILLE RAILRoAp.-

HENDERSON AND NASHVILLE RAILRoAp.-
A spirited meeting was held at Henderson,
en- Tuesday evening, TO provide means for
finishing the railroad from Henderson to
jacksonville. A good beginning was made,
and considerable amount Of stock was
Subscribed on the: spot. A confidence now
prevails that the means to finish the road
will soon be raised.
II. Cochran agent OF the Evans
vile & Charlottesville Railroad, who has
Just passed over the route from Nashville to
Henderson, informs US that the contractors
on the Southern division Of the road are
pushing il forward with vigor The cars
are running out for a distance of twenty
miles from Nashville; and the road, up to
the Kentucky State line, a distance Of forty
five miles, is all graded and the iron is being
put down. From the State line to Hopkins
vile it is all under contract; and the
President told our informant that he had
secured the means to finish that portion of
the road without further delay. There will
then remain only the section between
Hopkinsville and Medisonyille-a.space of
thirty miles-to be provided for. This gap
win not long remain open after the others
are in working order. Mr.. Cochran de-
scribes the country through which tine road
passes as one of the most lovely and produc-
tive regions of the West. The completion
of this road will give US direct route to the
South, and open Northern and Eastern
route for the section Of country between
Green river and the Cumberland, so long
excluded by bad roads from the rest of man

The CANAL.-The Petersburg Reporter of
Saturday, says the managers of the Canal
below Newberry are having it put in good
order. Many small breaks have been re-
paired, and the larger one below Dongola,
will be finished to-day, and we may expect
the canal to be in good navigable order, by
the first Of next week. This will prove a
most happy result as there is now much pro-
duce at different points along the line W bich

VALUABLE BOoKs.--A couple of very en-
tertaining publications have been laid upon
our table by their author, the Rev. WILLIAM
TAYLOR, of California. They are entitled,
respectively, "Californis Life, Illustrated"
and "Seven Years Street Preceding in San
Francisco" Most Of the incidents narrated
have come under the authors own obserya-
ton, and are replete with the most thrilling
interest. Mr.. Taylor was one of the first
in fact the frst-missionary of the NJ. E.
Church, who landed in California while it
was yet territory, and who labored earn
estly to direct mems minds to the gold that
could not be corrupted or stolen, whilst they
were being carried away with excitement in
obtaining that which was liable to both of
these casualties Asapractical man, he tells
what he saw in practical manner. AS a
fervent Christian, vein of christian benev-
slence and enthusiastic hopefnness runs
through every line of his writings
1t may not be amiss to state wny these
books are offered for sale in our city. A
series of destructive fires occurring in va
rious parts of California, about the time OF
the financial revision, several new church
buildings belonging to his denomination
were consumed. His people finding it i'm
possible to raise the funds on that side of the
continent to rebuild them, sent Mr.. Taylor
TO this side TO see if he could not secure
some help. Instead of taking the ordinary
and most unpleasant course of raising col
Iections wherever he goes he has adopted
the more popular-and, as he says, more
successful-one Of selling his entertaining
books, the profits on which go to aid in his
building enterprise. He is to remain in our
city till Thursday, daring which time his
books may be found at the following places
The saddle and harness store of Joseph p.
Elliott, and the grocery store of vickery
Brothers on Main street, and at the queens
ware establishment OF Hollingsworth 4
Brother, on First street.

Are 30 per cent. more than those Of last
wear. The lessees, Messrs. Newcomb b Go,
are preparing to meet o demand next WIN
ter of $4,000 or 10000 bushes per day,
which will require about 200 miners-a
double speed in all their operations-and
the delivery of two bank car loads per min
ute during the working hours. Such abusi-
ness would pay rent of $3.50 to $500 per
day to the lessers and q profit of twice that
amount to the lessees.
OF the ninety-ive miners now in the
mines eighty-fve are property holders in the
town, and four are sons of these real estate
owners, leaving only six transient employ
ees. Nearly all the miners are Germans,
each Of whom has cottage, surrounded
with a garden and vineyard, in which he
spends most of his working hours when out
Of the mines. The monthly wages paid to
the miners average abou: $56 each.
Among the miners, in this mine, there is a
mutual aid society, the funds Of which are
made up by monthly contributions from its
members, who, during sickness, receive
weekly allowances of So, and, in case OF
death, the funeral expenses are paid, and
the deceased's family receive SIS, or are Ia
ken care of for six months. In this way
all the workmen become permanently at
tached to the place and the mines, and there
are but few changes and no "strikes. -
Whenever alterations are to be made in the
prices of mining or mode of working, the
men are called together and the reasons for
it are explained, and the new arrangements
are made upon mutual CONCESSIONS and upon
fair and equitable terms. The lessees are
gentlemen of abundant means, and spare nc
expense in providing every facility for the
saving of labor and the dispatch Of business
but the credit for the superior working O
the mine is due, in a good degree, to the
admirable management of SIR. Michae
busch, one Of the best boss miners in the
West The mine is, at present, the mos
complete, in all its appointments and ut
Engagements, of any in the country.
