TROUBLE AMONG THE MoHMoNs. II
There is trouble among the Mormon
Saints which promises to prove quite
serious Brigham Young has cut off
from the church three noted apostles
as will be seen by the following from
the Salt Lake I5deite:
On sunday afternoon Brigham young prcach-
cl a lengthy sermon boldly and openly announc-
ing that Amasa Lyman, Orson Hyde and Orson
Pratt had apost ackcd aud were cut of from the
church Orson HYDE was chosen President of
the twelve Apostles last April Pratt is one Of
the twelve and Lyman had been one Of the Apos-
ties also. Young was severe on Hyde and par
ticuarly so on Pratt. he denounced the latter
as an mlbcljcvcr and as now IN possession of the
Devil.
In another article the I'jdcHc says:
''Young Joe Smith. tho son Of the Mormon
Prophet, j, the acknowledged head of the large
body of Mormons in the Western States, whoac-
ccpt the 1ioob of Mormon and the prophecies
If Joe smith: and he dcnounccs polygamy and
blood atoncmcnt as innovations ON the faith OF
the lpttor-day saints, and styles such practices
grcyious crimes against the well being of society.
brigham Young Is the acknowledged head of all
Latter-day saints in tab. Who accept the Book
nt Mormon, the prophecies fJoc Smith, believe
an pnlNg0lnN. blood utnncment ana Brigham
special revelations. Joe smith, Jr., Is determ-
r,ed to be recognized and Acknowledged as the
mead of the Mormon Church; and Brigham is
determined that lac won't. Some of the Smith
family came ont here last summer to preach the
pure quill but they didn't run away with the
Icopc. They met poor success Brigham aired
al that was left OF tho Smith family, one Sunday
afternoon in the Tabernacle, including the wife
Of Joe smith, the Prophet; who he said, after
pointing out all her other good qualities, was
the 1t liar he ever knew
Joe Smith, Jr., has about 10, 400 adherents in
the Western States, while Young has double oil
treble that number in Utah. Some of the dcfec-
tive have left and are leaving Utah TO enroll
them selves under Joe Smiths banner but Young
has muck the advantage of the Smith famil,
both in power and position. Brigham, Jr., had
been chosen TO sCccocd his father as head Of the

A WONDERFUL FLOWER.

Dr. T. N. Otis, in work called the "Isth-
mus OF Panama and its connections, gives the
following description of wonderful and singu-
larly beautiful flower, found on the line of the
Panama railroad, in the vicinity of Lion Hill
station:
''Along this section is found that rare varie-
ty of the Orchid family, the R7isteru elate,
known as the 'Espiritu Santo. Its blossom.
of alabaster whiteness, approaches the tulip in
form, and gives forth powerful perfume not
unlike that of the magnolia but it is neither
for its beauty of shape, its purity of color nor
its fragrance, that it is chiefly esteemed. Rest
ing within the cup Of the flower, so marvellous
ly formed that no human skill, be it ever so
cunning, could excel the resemblance, lies
the prone image of dove. Its exquisite
ly moulded pinions hang lifeless from its sides.
The head bends gently forward. The tiny bill
tipped with delicate carmine, almost touches
its snow-white breast, while the expression of
the entire image land it requires no stretch of
the imagination to see the expression) seems
the very incarnation of meekness and ethereal
innocence. No one who has seen it, can Won
der that the early Spanish Catholics, ever on
the alert for some phenomenon upon which to
tasten the idea OF a miraculous origin, should
have bowed down before this matchless flower,
and named it Flor del Espiritu Santo,' or
the Flower of the Holy Ghost, nor that the
still more superstitious Indian should have
accepted the imposing title, and ever have
gazed upon it with awe and devotional revrr-
ence, ascrbing a peculiar sanctity even to the
ground upon which it blossoms, and to the
very air which it ladens with its delicious fra
GRANGE.
1t is found most frequently in low and
marshy grounds. sprineing from decayed logs,
aud crevices in the rocks. Some of the most
vigorous plants attain a height OF six or seven
feet; the leaf stalks are iointed, and throw out
broad lanceoate leaves by pairs: the Hover
stalks spring from the bulb, and are wholly
destitute of leaves, often bearing a cluster OF
a dozen or fifteen flowers 1t is an annual,
blooming in July, August and September, and
has 10 several instances been cultivated 10 the
conservatories OF foreign lands. La former
times, bulbs oil the plant could rarely be OBJ
tanned, and then only with much labor and
difficulty; but since their localities have be-
become familiar to tue less reVercntlal Anglo
Saxon, great numbers have been gathered aud
distributed throughout different parts ot the
world, though their habits aud necessities have
been SO little appreciated that efforts to bring
them to flower usually prove Intellectual; II,
however, thay are are procured In May or June,
alter the flower stalk hasstartel. when sufficient
appropriate nutriment resides in the bulb to
aeVelop the perfect flowers, they can be safely
transplanted, and will flower under the ordinary
treatment adapted to the bulbous plant OF colder
Climates. The bulbs, dried or growing, may
DC procured either at Aspinwall or Panama,

A CURIOUS SCENE CHURCH.

"A ,CUHlOUO SCLN d LIN Ca u hCf1.
Among the offences known to the English
common law is that of ''brawling in church
A year or two since bishop was prosecuted
for stopping the service to rcbuke two young
ladies' who bowed at the Gloria Patri But
this case is capped by one recently tried in
Manchester court The plaintiff in this case
was the butler OF the Rev Thomas BlundeiI
Hollinshead Blundell, Of Halsale the defend
ant was Mrs. Blundell
The butler testified that be was in the pew
directly in front of the one iu which Mrs.
Blundell was sitting; that during the hymn
before the sermon she leaned over and struck
him three times on the shoulder with her hymn
book; that he turned about anl told her it
wonld become her as lady to stop that that
When then hymn was over she came out OF her
pew, stood at the door Of his, and ordered hllu
to leave the church that her husband came
down from the pulpit and repeated the order
that upon his refusal Mrs. Blundell "closing
her fist, drew it up to his face as if about TO
strike him, and clenched her teeth that she
asked the coachman to put him out, and upon
his declining to undertake the job went back
to her own pew, and that he sat out the rest
Of the service. Il
Heyes, laborer, testified that he saw Mrs.
Blundel push the complainant with her. hymn
book twice They were not blows she merely
touched him on the shoulder with the book
He could not hear what was said, but he could
see Mrs. Blundells 5 lips moving.
Hughes, commercial traveller, corroborated
this version of the story. Being little deaf
he did not hear what Mrs. BIundell said, but
he could see her lips moving When the Rev.
Mr. Blunaell came down from the pulpit, wit
ness heard the complainant tell him that he
would report him to lis bishop. That was
said 10 rather loud tone, and that was why
witness heard it, He also observed Mrs. Blum
dell put herself in a position as if she were or
dering the complainant out of the pew. He
did not see her put her fist in his face nor
clench her teeth Witness went to the church
for the purpose Of enjoying the service, but
what occurred spoiled all the enjoyment. He
never witnessed such scene in a church be-
fore. 55@f-l
The coachman testified that the butler was
standing at the time on one leg, with one hand
on the pew door and the other holding his
hymn book.
Mrs. Blundell's counsel explained that the
butler had been spoken to about a fortpi ght
before the day in question, for irreverence in
church. On the day in question the position
he stood in was irreverent, and Mrs Blundell
touched him on the back with her book to call
his attention to his conduct
The magistrates debated the matter for a
quarter OF an hour, and came to the conclusion
that the assault complained Of was not so severe
as to merit punishment The principle seems
to be thus established that if buffers stand on
one leg in service time it is lawful to punch
them in the backs with hymn books. :
