MORMON PRosPECTs.-Re to the recent
arrival of about four hundred Mormon emf
grants, the New York Tribune says:-"By all &C
counts 1t seems certain that they will find their
paradise in a sad turmoil when they get to it,
and the Saints in most ungodly rumpus. The
schism to which we alluded short time ago has
become so wide, and has made such an ugly
wound, that there is little prospect of its
ever being healed. Brigham Young is
boldly denounced. His followers have ceased
to obey him; his adversaries set him at Defiance
When he falls, the keystone of the Mormon
structure is overthrown. The Latter-Day Church
canEot outlast its great prophet. 1t is said that
Young is about TO remove to the newly dis
covered gold mines of Utah; but we are 10th to
believe that he so quickly gives up the fight, and
it is more probable that he win make deter
mined stand at his capital. At any rate,
the Mormon difficulty, which has perplexed us
for so many years, seems to be rapidly solving
itself without our assistance. In another gene
ration we may hope to see the polygamists of
the great plains quietly absorbed by law
abiding and industrious race of new settlers. If
they withstand the combined influences of in
ternal discord the Pacific railway, and the tide
of immigration which will be attracted to Utah
by the discovery of gold in the Territory, they
will show a stability and strength of character
to which history affords no PARALLEL

The Slight ON THE EGYPTIAN VIcERoY.-
Not a single member of the royal family was
present at the Clearinghouse station to receive
the Viceroy of Egypt. The Prince Of Wales,
who, when in Egypt, was received with the
most splendid hospitality by his highness,
preferred the part Of guest to that of host, and
dined with the Guards. An English paper
says;-"h Napoleon felt difficulty on the
roy, the Prince of Wales should have felt none.
His royal highness is as much subject as the

The effect of the laws against cutting and In
favor OF planting trees in France has been such
that, OF late years, instead of steady decrease
in the extent of woodland IN the empire, there
has been constant gain. In 1850 the wooded
surface OF France was S,7s3 34S hectares, or less

Terrible Accident at an Excursion

From the Sandusky, O., Register, 18th
Yesterday the FenianS made an excursion to
the Islands, on the steamer Gen. Grant. On
their return from Putin Bay, the boat stopped
at kelly's Island to allow some to 60 ashore
and others 10 60 aboard who were left on the
wsy over. Preparatory to putting Off, Capt
Slackford OF the Grant, rang the bell for some
time. and made In uirries ii all were on board
On being told they were, be ordered the bow
line thrown OFF. ard the boat commenced to
swing away from the wharf A hand, who
had charge Of the stern line, asked an Islander
who was Standing by the Spite to which 1t was
hitched TO throw 1t Off, and he refused to do
so, wheIeupon the boat hand Ieaped ashore
and attempting TO do it himself, but was hind :
cred in doing so by the Islander who put his
foot on the rope. While this was taken place,
woman and a girl who, 1t is said, had not
previously got on board, leaped on
and from Ignorance or carelessness, step
ped into the coils OF the line Not being
loosened in time, the line was drawn taut, and
the limbs OF the unfortunate females complete
ly torn off by the tightening coils: the woman, a
foot at the ankle, and the girls leg at the knee
Capt. Slackford stopped the boat as soon as
possible, and took on board a ply slcian from
the island, who looked after the sufferers until
reaching this city. The womans name is
Mary Glen, aged twenty. five years; and the
girls, KATE Goldlng, aged eleven years: the
latter being step -daug hter of Michael Con.
ner OF this city, and the former a woman en-
ployed in his family. We have rarely known
more revolving accident. tits reported that
the Islander W no refused to throw off the line
mac DIS wife ON the boat, and he did not want
the line lcosened until she had time to get
ashore. The Islander pushed the boat hand
away from the Spite when he attempted it. and
came near throwing him IN the lake.
