mornao nis.n and DoubIc Love.

Not long since q company Of Mormon
emigrants arrived at Boston on their way
70 Utah. Among them was noticed young
.nAn more distinguished in bis appearance
than the remainder OF the company, and
ne ~ him two young females deeply yelled,
whose delicate grace and reserve Indicted
them as belonging to n superior social posi-
ton. Their history merits relation. Lud-
wig Feroe was the son Of rich land owner
in Sweden; and the two young ladies' were
two orphans who were brought up with
him in his father's family, until he left for
College at Dontheim, where he remained
several years, and afterwards travelling over
the greater part Of Europe, his former play
mates were forgotten. Returning at last to
his home, he was astonished to find two
beautiful women, dazzling as the Undine Of
lie was struck to the heart as with an ar
row. Love conquered him at first sight
lie was in love, but with which onet Both
were splendidIy beautiful. He was enarn-
ored Of both. He was in whirlpool Of
doubt, indecision, and perplexity. Il was
necessary to come TO some decision, and he
naturally came to the most droll one. In
an excess Of desperate frankness he related
to the Two young ladies the state Of his feel
ngs. They laughed at him at first, then
they reflected, and the result Of their re-
Election was that they both loved Ludwig,
and wero as embarrassed as he. About this
time one Of the Mormon apostles, passing
through the place, sought to make proselytes
to the doctrines of the Saints and converted
the young man and the two girls. Thus
Ludwig Feroe and his companions, Nina and
Evohe, form part Of the Mormon emigrnnts
on their way to Salt Lake, where their ro-
nance Of love and duplication Of wives will
be speedily divested of all charm by the low
associations around them

The PresIGent,s LogIc.

The Boston Courier, in an article on that
portion of the Presidents Message which at
tributes the cause Of the war to the existence
Of slavery, says; -At 81. - .l-
"Mr Lineoln's ingenious though not origi-
nal observation, that, il there had been
NO slavery there would have been no re.
belion, has sometimes been compared with
the equally logical sequence, that ii no one
travelled on the highways with money in his
pockets there would be no highwaymen -
The truth is, we may begin in such chain
Of reasoning just where we see fit If the
world had not been created, with various races
ypon it, of diverse characteristics, capacities
and dispositions; il the necessities, or opin-
ions, or prejudices of society were not such
as they are; we should have had no freesol
party, no Chicago platform, no division among
the Democratic party, giving the opportunity
for the Republican minority to succeed, aud
consequently, no Mr.. Lincoln for President
In the latter case we should, of course, have
had no rebellion"

seward and the Elections.

The New York Herald, in speaking Of the
recent leuerof Secretary Sewardto 70 the Ameri-
can Minister at London, explaining the recent
elections in the Norihern and Western States,
says VT
"Mr. Secretary Seward, in bis letter to the
Hon Charles Francis Adams, our Minister at
London, explaining the elections in the loyal
States for the information Of the English
Cabinet, throws out the idea that these elec-
tons do not amount to much in their political
party results, a. applied 10 the important q0es-
tons Of this war We can tell Mr.. Seward,
however, that in this idea he is very wide Of
the mark, and that the late remarkable popu-
lar reaction in the loyal States amounts to-
nothiuR less than condemnation by the peo-
pie Of the way in which the war, under the
evil counsels Of the Abolition radicals, has
been mismanaged down to this time The
people, with the pressure upon them Of war
taxes, war prices, and deprecated shinplas
ter currency, &c., &c, have simply declared
that their blood and treasure must no longer
be squandered under the foolish and ruinous
instructions of the Abolition faction Let
this faction continue, therefore, to guide the
party in power, and next year there will be
great improvement upon these late elections;
and in 1864, with the Presidential election,
every vestige of Abolitionism, with the domi
nant party OF this day, will be swept of. Such
is the meaning Of these late Northern, cleo
tions, which Mr.. Seward unfortunately bas
failed to discover" nraar.

II appears from recent experiment that

pounds of powder, and a solid ball, the force

of our new tirst-class gunboats without pro-
ducing much moro noise inside the turret

that one OF these enormous weapons can be
served and managed by three men! The
idea of firing guns of a smaller bore than the

Terrible Rebts Slaughter at An

An officer Of the 18th Georgia regiment
writes to the Savannah Republican letter
which shows that the slaughter Of the rebels
in the battle Of AnIietam has not been exag-
gerated, at least in regard to the regiments
whose movements he witnessed. He says.
"The fifteenth were posted in narrow
path, washed out into regular gully, and
were fired into by theenemy from the front,
rear and left flank. The men stood their
ground nobly, returning the fire until nearly
two-thirds OF their number lay dead or
wounded in that lane. Out of two hundred
and ten carried into the fight over one hun Z
