THE SCHIsM IN THE MORMON
CHURCH.-Under the head of the
Mischief Brewing the Salt Lake VI
dette of June Doth saysthat conspira-
cy exists in Southern Utah to throw
off the yoke Of Brigham Young. An
athemas and favoritism are some of
the causes. The Mormon people are
tired of what they deem abuses. Ru-
NOR says they break between Orson
Pratt and others and Brigham
Young is financial, and not doctrinal.
The church fund in the Bank of
England had been subject to Pratts
order, and hitherto his checks had
been honored. Brigham shut down
ON Pratt; hence the difficulty. Pratt
has FASTENED home to consult the
saints. The funds are church funds,
and Pratt says Brigham is not the
church.

CHURCH HILL DEBATING SoCGETY.-This
Literary Association on Church Hill is
conducted with great zeal by its young
members. Their discussions excite good
deal of interest among the citizens, and at
their meeting of Friday night their hall
was crowded. The discussions of the
Young gentlemen are spoken of in high
terms by those who have heard them,
especially that of Friday night, when that
very good old standing dish of debating So
cities, "Which is the greater incentive to
action, the hope of reward or the fear of
punishment ?" was discussed with great
ingenuity by Messrs. r. w. Figg, J. A.
French, J. J. White, and r. IL. Mullen.
II. A. Atkinson was the declaimer of the
evening, and made an address on "Our
Country" An auditor, speaking OF this,
says it satisfied his hearers that "though
the feld be lost, all is not lost"
An effort is being made to get up a

After satisfying themselves with the
capitol and the other sights Of Washington
our party returned to the hotel; and after
dining it was found that it was time to be-
take ourselves to the depot. So after
returning our thanks to Messrs. Potts &
Shelley, the proprietors of the Metropoli-
tan rhe southern hotel of Washington)
and their gentemanly clerks, Messrs.
Bagley, Collins, and Keelan, for their cour-
tesy and kindness, we were on our way to
the cars, and before long We were on our
way to old Richmond. When homeward
bound, we had General Lindsey Walker
along as guest. The General is still suf-
fering from the effects Of the severe sprain
received by railroad accident on his way
to New York, though he hopes to be all
right ere long. Of the return trip
but little is known, as the party, al
most entirely subdued by their exertions
of the day, were generally asleep before
they reached Alexandria. Historic and
CORY fields and classic spots that would
have revived memories of big battles and
brave and heroic deeds had we been awake,
were passed over while we lay un-
consciously sleeping and consequently
we cannot spread ourselves on this par
ticularly interesting part of our jour
ney, and all that we have left to say of
it is that as the town bell tolled the hour
of five yesterday morning, we placed our
feet upon Virginia soil, and as we breathed
Virginia air we uttered the prayer that our
last breath of that oxygenious necessity
to our existence should be drawn within
the precincts of the Old Dominion.
The occasion of this excursion was the
opening of the through route to Washing
ton uia the Central and Orange and Alex
andria road. The exclusive right to issue
through tickets formerly owned on the
Fredericksburg route having expired by
limitation on the 23d instant, the first
through train by the new route was run on
Friday. Arrangements are now being
made by which through tickets to any
point North or West can be obtained over
this route.
The trip, upon the whole, was a most
pleasant one. The railroad company,
through its representatives, Messrs. War
then and Netherland, extended to the
party every courtesy, and nothing that
could conduce to its pleasure or comfort was
left undone. To them and to the officers
of the company we return our warmest
thanks for this agreeable excursion to
Washington.

MAYORS CoURT-RECoRDER REGSAULT
PREsIDING-SATURDAY MoRNING.-In the
absence of Mayor Mayo on the Washington
excursion, Recorder Regnault presided
over his court on Saturday morning.
John Fogery, Yankee soldier, was ar
raigned for picking the pocket of Nelson
OVERLY. The case was continued.
Robert Lomax, negro, was arraigned for
breaking into the ice-house of George W.
Smith and stealing wood. He was caught
in the act, and the Recorder sent him on
for burglary.
Ellis McGlenn, alias Martell, was ar
raigned for tearing down the fence on Neil
McCurdy's estate. His case was continued
until to-day.
The case of Ophelia Robinson, negress,
charged with stealing an overcoat and six
teen silver spoons from n. NJ. Lee, Esq,

THE RrvER.-Thc river is now open, and
navigation will be commenced at once.
The steamship Virginia, bound from Phila-
delphia, arrived on Saturday from City
Point. She left Norfolk on the 30th Of
January, and met with but little resistance
until she reached Fort Powhatan. On
Thursday she was enabled to come up to
City Point, and on Friday she came up as
far as Dutch Gap, finding very little ice.
From Dutch Gap to Drewry's Bluff she
encountered ice from three to six inches
thick; and from the Bluff to the bar be-
low the city it was from six to eight inches
in thickness. 1t was very soft, however,
and gave every sign of speedy dissolution.
Yesterday morning it had almost entirely
disappeared, and there were only few
floating pieces on the water. This is said
to be the most speedy disappearance of ice
ever known.
Last evening a steamtug having in tow
three vessels reached Tree Hill, but in
consequence OF the darkness and high
water could not get further up. They will
probably come up this morning. Last
evening the water was rising quite rapidly,
and all the goods upon the wharyes were
being moved away. The ice from above
the falls float down in such small pieces
that they will not prevent any vessels from
coming up.
