A NARRATIVE OF
Many Years Personal Experience,
By MARIA WARD,
THE WlPE OF A M0RN0H ELDER.
THE WIFE OF A MORMON ELDER.

THAT one half Of the world cannot imagine how
the other half live, less true than trite and
the lesson the adagc affords. our experience and
observation daily tends to verify. Then, toe, when
we consider the evervarying phases of human pas
sion. and the discordant elements from which all
novel and fanatical sects are moulded, It car.
scarcely seem surprising that faithful record OF
actual events should exceed in singulari,y the
widest dream of romance; or that crimes, both
strange and unnatural, should be perpetrated in a
far oifcountry the outskirts of civilization, which
people in another state oil s,ciety would never i'm
ag;ne possible. Rowing as 20 know, the evils
and horrors and denominations of the Mormon sys.
tenn, the degradation it imposes Oh females. and
the consequent vices which extend through all the
ramfcations of the society, sense Of duty to the
world has induced me to prepare the following mar.
rative for the public eye. Tie romantic incidents
connected with my experience, many may think
bordering on the marvellous. To them | would
say, that this narrative Of my life only proves wha
has often been been proved before that, "TRUrH 1.

LATEST FROM THE BATTLEFIELD.

BALTIMORE, July 5.-The Americans in.
this morning represents the rebels holding a
position in the mountains near Cashtown and
terrifying. Gen.. Meade has advanced to the
enemy's lines. There has been some skir-
misning but no battle. General Pleas
anton has captured a large train of
the enemy and many prisoners. The
enemy left all his wounded in our hands, and
thousands OF dead. lie is believed to be re-
treating towards Hancock. There is no truth
in the report OF the capture of Longstreet or
Hill. There is a dead major general in our
hands whose name is unknown. The enemy
is undoubtedly seeking to escape. The body
of Brig. Gen. S. X. Zook, killed in battle on
Thursday, reached here yesterday from West
minister in charge of It, Broone and 1t.
Faville Of his staff.
Gen. Zook commanded the Sd brigade, LIST
division, I'd corps. His remains will leave for
Philadelphia to-day. Gen. Gibbon COM
handing the I'd division of Hancocks corps,
who was wounded in the shoulder in the en-
gagement Friday, reached here yesterday.
The Generals wound is not dangerous, and is
doing well. Major Baird, inspector general
Oh OlDDOu ) Sldll. was WuuilNtu III IilG lOOt
Capt. d. J. Wood, A. A. G., of Gen. Glib
bon's staff, and Lieut.. Haskell were both
slightly wounded.
HARRISBURG, July 81 A. M.-Ofiicial in
formation leaves no doubt that Lees army is
in full retreat. The line of retreat is not de-
initely known 1t is either through Cash
town or through Fairfield Whichever way
it appears Gen. Meade has the advantage, as
he is posted at Gettysburg and pushing out
troops towards Newman's Cut, directly west,
to Fairfield, southwest
Nothing is known of the exact situation
Lee is probably trying to retreat by both
routes. 1t is supposed he does not know of
the destruction of the pOntoon bridge. The
position of the rebel army last night was : his
left near Hunterstown, and his right across
the Emmettshurg road, thus forming a semi
circle around Gettysburg.
Gen. Meade operates from the centre of
Lee, on the arc of the circle No informa-
ton can be sent as to the movements Our
generals are vigilant, and the troops in the
best of spirits.
