trudged his weary way for more than 8
thousand miles, with only sage-brush TO re-
lieve the scene from stark savage desolation,
emerges from the deep gorge in the mouR-
tains, and for the first time looks down upon
Great Salt Lake City To the right twenty
miles distant, the lake itself stretches far
away to the north. Twenty-Five miles across :
the valley Of the Jordan IS a high range Of
mountains; for miles north and south, the
valley Is covered with splendid farms; while
at your feet, with its broad streets and
houses embowered in trees, Is the far-famed
city Of "the saints As you enter it, you
observe a pure stream of water, sparkling
along each side of all the streets, from
which each thrifty Mormon, as it babbles
along leads little thread into his garden,
and around among his fruits and flowers,
forming perfect paradise of beauty. Salt
Lake is certainly one Of the most Beautiful
cities upon the continent

are at perfect liberty to wear any Article Of

cent filters" are, by all the fashionable
families Of our large cities. And innocent
are they, too, say what the spiteful newspaper
men may about their "immodestY and

that these gallant men have Just as much
admiration for a dainty pair of feet and
themselves to obtain a view whenever q
young lady sees fit to offer an opportunity
If there is anything bad in a pair OF hoops
that expose to view neatly dressed feminine
pedal extremities, the ladies as yet fail to
see It. When editors talk about indecent
exposure of person, etc, they display their
ignorance of female apparel, and
utterly ignore the fact that pantaletts are
worn with the fitting hoops as well as with
1ut them
Ia short, claiming that lady has as good
4 right to show her graceful feet as man

Crops IN Panola ossnty-From the best
information we could gather, we stated
several weeks ago that the people of Pamela
county would make about two thirds of
crop that is to say, net an ordinary crop,
buttwO-thirds of a crop taking into consider
alton the number Of acres planted and the
hands employed. Week before last we
stated that this prospect was reduced to
one-third by the rains and unfayolable
weather. Since then the windows of
Heaven have opened, and the rains have de-
scended in torrents, - and by reason (which
we now are of the opinion that not more
than one-fourth of crop may. be expected,
and if the rainy, cold weather of this week
continues for ten days longer, the entire
crop will be lost This is truly an unfaYora-
bic view of the subject, but it is one that we
feel bound under all the circumstances to-
present We hope we may lB misinformed
and mistaken IN the matter. Our people
cannot be held responsible for the act of
God, and we attach no blame to them, as we
believe that they are making greater exer-
tions than ever before to make at least bread
and meat enough to live upon.-PaaaoLG

LIFE LEAVES.

THE following poem touehingy beautiful. Many eye
VIII be dmmed by it reads these lines and the
thoughts go wandering away to "memOrys wild wood: ::
The day with its sandals dipped in dew
Has passed through the evenings golden gates,
And q single in the elOudless blue
For the rising IN silence waits
While the winds that sigh to the langu55 hours
AIullaby breathe the folded flowers
The lilies nod to the sound of the stream
That winds along with lulling aow,
And either awake, or half a-dream,
passed through the realms of long ago;
While faces peer with many smile
From the bowers of Memory's magical isle.
There are joys and sunshine, sorrows and tears
That check the path of life's April hours,
And a longing wish for the coming years,
That hope ever wreaths with the fairest flowers
There are friendship guileless-love as bright
And pure the stars in the halls Of night
There are ashen memories bitter pain.
And buried hopes a broken vow,
And aching heart by the reckless main,
And the sea-breeze tanning pallid brow:
And a wanderer the shell-lined shore
Listening for voices that speak
There are passions strong and ambitions wild,
And the fierce desire to stand in the van
or the battle of Iife-and the heart of a child,
Is crushed in the breast Of the struggling man,
But short are the regrets and few the tears,
That fall at the tomb Of the banIshed years.
There is a quiet and peace and domestic love,
Aud joys arising from faith and truth,
And a truth unquestioning, far above
The passionate dreanings of ardent youth;
And kisses of children lips and cheek,
And the parents bliss which tongue speak.
There are loved ones lost! There are little graves
In the distant dell, meath protecting trees,
Where the streamlet Winds and the violet waves,
And the grasses sway to the signing breeze
And we mourn for pressure Of tender lips
And the light Of eyes darkened in deaths eclipse.
And thus, the glow of she daylight dies
And the nights first look TO the earth is east,
gaze meath those beautiful summer skies,
At tie pictures that hang she halls Of the past
Oh, Sorrow and Joy, chant mingled lay
When to memory's wildwood wander away
