A GREAT SPEECH.

The speech of Hon. Richard T. Merrick, on thu
recent trial of Surratt, at Washington is pronoun
ced to have been very able effort. A correspon
dent of the Baltimore Sun states that throughou
Mr.. Ms speech there were points of che deepes
pathos, but none more 80 than in connection witt
Mrs. Surratt. At times many Of the spectators
and number of jurors were in tears, and Judge
Wylie, who sat upon the bench, wept freely under
the moving eloquence of the orator. When Mr.
Merrck closed his friends freely congratulated him
upon the great successhe had achieved" line fol'
lowing is the conclusion of the speech, taken from
synopsis of the Sun:
"Mr Merick here referred to some remarks
made BY Mr.. Pierepont early in the trlai, In which
he sad that the trial would set at rest reports a.
bout certain individuals and it was promised that
records would be produced. Where are those re,
cords? They were brought here once and with,
drawn. Why was this? Did they find at the end
of the record recommendation to mercy tor Mrs.
Surratt, which the President never saw. Would
that record have shown that access was aot denied
the President? Can the scene of that day ever be
forgotten Priests and philanthropists went to the
Executive mansion to ask respite for Mrs. Sur.
ratt andacces was denied. Mr.. Merick depicted
the visit of Annie Surratt to the President, when
she was denied access, and he asked who stood in
the way. Does the conscience of the Secretary Of
War or the head of the Bureau Of Military Jus.
t;ce now check them? Or is it true thst one who
prevented that interview now sleeps in the waters
of the Hudson, and that another blev bis OWL
brains out in Kansas? Was there not something

AMONG THE MORMONS.

As Mormanism grows and expands in Utah, il
becomes more and more subject Of interest to
the people of the United States Much has been
said and written about it, but full picture of the
iniquity has never yet been drawn The following
sketch, giving an account of an interview with
Brigham Young, will be found interesting:
regard Brigham Young as greatly under-esti-
mated man by most persons in the East They
all Judge him mainly by his ribald and often bias
phemous harangues from the pulpit, and do not
appreciate him as great administrator and Leader
of unsurpassed attainments. I first saw him In
his own business room. He was nearly or perhaps
quite alone when I entered, but almost instantly
several side doors opened, and halfa dozen broth
ers sons secretaries, etc., were seated around the
little Office. learn that he never sees any person
alone, unless that he knows perfectly the character
of the visitor, and when strangers call on him. his
person is guarded from possible assassination by
the apparently casual but evidently systematic ap'
pearance of his immediate friends

for preserving the bodies of the dead now in use
are likely to be superseded by aenewly-inveuted

for forty days At the expiration Of that time, it
was exposed to the air, and up to the present Pc

DISEASE PRODUCED BY SLEEPING ToaETHE

DISEASE PRODUCED BY SLEEPING ToaEEHER.
During the night, says q writer on hygienics,
there is considerable exhalation from our bodies,
and at the same time we absorb large quantity Of
the vapors of the surrounding all. Two healthy
young children sleeping together win give and re-
ceive healthy exhalations; but an old, weak per-
son near child will, in exchange for health, only
return weakness. A sick mother near her daugh-
ter communicates sickly emanations to her; if the
mother has cough Of long duration, the daughter
will, at some time, also cough and suffer BY it if
the mother has pulmonary consumption, it will be
ultimately communicated to her child Its known
that the bed of a consumptiye is powerful and
sure source Of contagious as well for men as for
women, and the more so for young persons. Pa
rents and friends ought to oppose as much as in
their power the sleeping together Of old and young
persons, of the sick or the healthy. s

ssPOOR CARLOTTA.o

Every one has heard of the tender affection
which existed between Maximiian and his wife
an affection that overthrew Carlotta's reason whe
her husbands fortunes began to wane, and mad
her name the last word Maximilian ever spoke
The beautiful story Of welded love is touchingl
told, IN the following lines, by Mrs E. Sherman
Smith, which we take from the Home Journal:
Did ever wild romancer weave
Or poet pen so sad a story?
The coolest heart, methinks, must grieve
For thee, and all thy vanished glory.
But yesterday such joys were thine
It seemed that fate with fond caressings,
Had sought to lavish at thy shrine
Her richest store of boons and blessings.
Youth, Beauty, Wit and Grace thy dover,
With royal birth and regal splendor;
And, crown Of all thy pomp and power,
Ahusbands love most true and tender.
All! "Poor Carlotta," where to-day
Are all the gifts'that Fortune sent thee?
Like fairy favors torn away,
And lost almost as soon as lent thee
The mystic meteor of night,
That for one glorious moment traces
It's shining path mid worlds of light,
Then falls and fades in darksome places.
Is type, alas of thy career:
One instant Heavens own bliss around thee;
The next, hurled from thy starry sphere,
Madness and misery both have found thee.
We have no tears to mourn thy fall
From glittering scenes Of power and splendor
But for a loss more vast than all
Of these, our fond regrets we tender.
Letcrown, and throne, and palace go;
They brought no true, no real gladness;
They saved thee not from tears OF woe;,
They shielded not from Care and Madness.
But keep, amid the wreck of joys
Strewn on the cheerless path before thee,
The memory of that constant love
Which shone and still is shining DER thee.
They took thy royal consort's life,
But could not take the love he gave thee;
Oh crownless queen! oh, suffering wife
Let this dear thought sustain and save thee.
Thy name upon his dying lips
Thy name so fondly, gently spoken
Told, cen in that most sad eclipse,
The ties that bound thee were not broken.
Somewhere he watches DER thee yet,
with spirit faithful, fond and tender;
Somewhere the star that here hath set
Rises again in morning splendor.
The world is ringing with his fate,
And many weep tho while they name him;
He recks not, in his new estate,
Whether men pity, praise or blame him.
Look up, poor queen Look up, sweet wife!
Nothing is lost while Love remalneth!
The brightest jewel of thy life
No touch of shame or error stalneth.
Triumphant over Fate it shines,
The star of Maximilian's story,
And with thy name and his entwines,
One tender ray of fadeless glory.
