HORACE GREELEY is also here. It is further known
that Mr. GREELEY had an interview with the Pres
dent yesterday, and had interviews with Mr. DAVIS
counsel this morning. From these facts the Quio
nunss have conjectured that the State prisoner at
Fortress Monroe is about either to be released on
parole OK bail, or that his case is on the eve OF
being disposed Of in some way; aud it must be
confessed that the facts warrant a fair inference
that this long delayed act Of sheer justice is at last

FROM OUR SALT LAKE CORES
PONDENT.

SALT LAKE CITY.
Mr.. Series Editor:-I have now spent week
with the Latter-Day Saints, admired their
green shades, their beautiful streams and
waterfalls, their human cocooneries, and the
innumerable evidences of prosperity which
appear on every hand, indoors and out.
Their markets are filed with the choicest
vegetables, and their houses with cabbage
heads" but no "dead beets" are allowed
within the boundaries of the Prophet;
indeed, no arrangement that is not likely
to bring a prophet to the Church
is tolerated. Stores, where all kinds
of dry goods can be bought from a tilter to
baby's hood, are abundant, and abundantly
patronized. The beehive is found in Brig
hams house, and on many business signs, as
evidence to Gentiles that all the hum about
the Sweetness of their lives turns out cell. All
must work, and give one-tenth of their pro-
ducts to the great Prophet, which, to many OF
them, is the only profit they see of their labor.
Said a newly arrived Hibernian convert to me,
"They now take the tenth, and be jabers
after while they'll be taking the twentieth
which my informant thought was more thar
he could stand.
Industry is encouraged in every possible
way. Besides growing family, which every
Mormon is expected to have both in wives and
children, number of old spinsters, and others
unsealed, that are on the lookout for thrifty
male Saints, take it into their heads that they
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1867-07-27

will be "sealed" as spiritual wives to the
provident Mormon in question, seeing that
they generally have so little flesh on their
bones that their adaptedness for spiritual
wives is acknowledged by every one; and as
our prosperous Saint has to contribute some
thing towards the support of these grated
branches on his genealogical tree, he has need
of all the industry his circumstances can
command.
Salt Lake City is in what is called the Great
Basin of the West. There is more soft soap
used in this "basn' than in any wash-tub of
Christendom; and more lye is used in making
the soap. The Great Salt Lake, which lies
within twelve miles of the city, is the most
briny body for afresh-water lake in the world.
Everybody that goes into it is in pickle to
understand its saline qualities. Mr.. Artemus
Ward, a celebrated traveller in these parts,
and who has given the most reliable accounts
of this wonderful people, tells of how the
natives, when their cattle are otherwise use
less, drive them into this lake, letting them
stand there for half an hour, when they are
turned into ''corned beef" and are then cut
up for the New York market: so
strongly is the lake impregnated with
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1867-07-27

''prime family kits" lam told It is thought
nothing of TO find along the shores at low
water soused pigs feet and snouts, such as
you have in your restaurants, that have
dropped off swine roofing on It's shores. 1t
was this lake that gave the idea orlginally W
Brigham Young of the doctrine oil pluranty ot
wives. In his early youth he was travelling
in these parts, and was captured by an indian
Chief. one of those our Government is now
irving to capture, and this Chief told Brigham
that he must either be tomahawked or marry
his daughter. Brigham concluded on the
latter, though he thought the bargain
hard. Arriving at Salt Lake, he persuaded
his copperhead Princess to take bath, while
he would dig some roots to eat. When he
returned he found her on the banks of the
lake, crystallized to the spot with rock salt, so
that she could not move. Brigham was so
rejoiced to get rid of her that he vowed, as
soon as he got out of sight, leaving her stand
ing there like pillar of salt, that if he ever
got married again his idea of a wife should be
Lots. No one who has seen him SINCE in his
beehive, will doubt that he has kept his VOW
to the letter. for indeed of wives, it can be said
he has Lots. AS it has been before remarked
by Mr.. Ward, most of the girls in this Terri
tory marry Young.
This great Basin, or Wash-tub as it is now,
was once regarded as vast desert. The
Mormons accepted it as their home; here they
thought they would have room to raise their
progeny, with none to molest. When they ar
rived here not q tree shaded this vast desert
but soon olive branches came up around their
tables; and where the buffalo and the bear once
found congenial home, modern travellers
tell us is now overrun with little dears, and
in the cool of the evening "dears talking" is
the favorite occupation of the natives.
But the religion of the Mormons is the most
marvellous problem of the age. While the
many religions of the Old World are denying
the right of marriage to their priests, this rel-
gion teaches that the more they are married
the religiouser they are. Consequently, the
Prophet himself is probably the most married
person in the world. His wives, sealed and
unsealed, make respectable village, and it
has more than once happened that a gay and
dashing Mormon has elOped of night with
whole Young Ladies' Seminary, so completely
closing up the teachers eye that she had not a
pupil left in the morning.
Brigham Young being the shepherd of this
flock, is, of course, entitled to the fleece, and
while he shears the old sheep he pulls the
wool over the eyes of the ewes. His wives
who are named to him in the flesh are de-

scribed as of the flesh, fleshy, of whom he has
about forty; twice that number he has sealed
to him to become his spiritual wives in the
spirit-land, and are generally of the bone,
bony, These latter, having failed to gain a
union in the flesh, content themselves with
one in the spirit. The original wife of Brig
ham (No. y does not live in the hive, but has
a cottage of her own, where she sits a relic of
the past, while the last new wife, am told
raises 'Hail Columbia" around the ears of the
Prophet, and at times becomes so boisterous
and unruly that Brigham has to consider her
kind of "Cruiser," and has to ask the
assistance of the wife-tamers of the Church to
bring her to.
The evening telegraph. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1864-1918, 1867-07-27
bring her to.


On Sunday attended Mormon service in the
Tabernacle. There were over twelve hundred
women present. The preacher cautioned the
fair ones against Gentle unions, and said if
there were any unmarried ones in the audience
they might send their names, age, residence,
and photographs to him, and he would make
a selection and hand the documents over to the
elders to do the same, until there should be no
show for any trading Gentlile among them
With other religious words did he comfort
them; after which they were all dismissed to
allow them time to get home and dressed for
the theatre, which also has two services on
Sunday
If you think of coming out here this sum-
mer, you need not bring your family with you,
as there are always number of them at the
depot.
N. B.-Pay no attention to the "runners, :"
but select for yourself, as the runners are often
unpiincipled, and put family on you not
suited to your circumstances.
Yours, plurally, SOLOMON sNUoG.

Triunphs OF Parepa-Rosa in Opera

Yesterday we copied from the New York
Tribune q critical account Of Madame Pa
REPA-RosA's debut in opera, at the Academy,
in New York, on Monday night. On Tues
day evening she appeared as Norma, adducing
still greater triumphs, The critic of the
Times says:

last evening was even q greater success, be-

her successful, might he supposed in some
instances to have accepted the will for the
deed and crowned her with triumphal favors
