1p,ou.N,s succEssoR.

Mormouism is very quiet, buI is pro-
crossing. Europe ia the great field Tor
It's exertions, and it has its missionaries
constantly at work. Brigham Young,
feeling the infrmities ofage growing upon
him, has, contrary to the hopes and as
pirations Of the elder saints, provided his
successor. A contemporary says; For
some time past, the rumor has been pre-
valent in Mormondom that Brigham
Young like prudent father and ruler,
with view to the permanence OF the
succession, was quietly moving to place
the reins in the hands Of his son and
namesaks, while it was possible for him
self to look on and see the boy drive.
The gray seniors among the saints have
been vigilAntly watching that this should
not take place, it being their view that
age should have precedence of blood in
the event of Brigham's sudden demise.
Nevertheless it is now stated that the
President secretly carried his point some
time since, and formally ordained the
Young scion president-successor in the
Mormon Church, before the latter's de-
parture on a PROSECUTING tour in Europe.

THE MOTOR CLOCK.

At the Greenwich Observatory, in
England, they have an electric clock,
known as the motor clock, which reg
ulates the time in England. 1t main
tains various clocks in perfect sympathy
with itself, regulates clocks in London,
sends Signals throughout the country,
drops a time ball at Deal, fires guns at
Newcastle and Shields, and maintains
such good communication that the ope-
rator at Greenwich can receive such
reports of the going Of distant clocks as
he may desire. Electric signals also
convey Greenwich time from this clock
to some places in Ireland, and during
the laying of the Atlantic cable the
Observatory sent signals to the Great
Eastern twice day, to enable her to
constantly determine her longitude. In
thirty eight days out of one hundred
this clock is said to ordinarily Lave an
error of less than one second, and in
only one day in one hundred has it an
error as great as four seconds.

BALTIMORE. June 29.--The President
was received at the depot by Gov. Swami

Barnum's Hotel, where, in the presence
of an immense crowd, he was welcomed
to the city by Gov. Bradford. He re-

sections of the Union. 4" thank God it

man to put his finger on any great prin''

I have abandoned. have held to the

BETTER THAN wHIsKY.

The following is a recipe for making
ginger beer, a very wholesome and re-
freshing summer drink, more healthy
and far better than whisky: Put two
gallons of cold water into pot upon a
fire-add two ounces of good ginger,
bruised, and two pounds of sugar. Let
il come to q boil, and continue boiling
for half an hour. Then skim the liquor,
and pour it into jar or tub, along with
one sliced lemon and half an ounce of
cream of tartar. When nearly cold, put
in a cupful of yeast, to cause the mixture
to ferment. The beer is now made, and
after it has worked two days strain and
bottle for use. Tie down the corks
firmly.

GREELEY DEFENDED.

The London Times decides Mr. Grea-
leys case as follows: Mr.. Horace
Greeley, who it is said, has been cen
sured by his party for advocating the
release of Mr.. Jefferson Davis and giving
bail for his appearance, will be thought
by the world to need no defense. His con-
duet is alike creditable to his humanity
and his political judgment. He has
taken the lead in showing generosity to
fallen opponent, and by so doing he has
done more to restore union between
North and South than could have been
done by a score of ultra Republican
orations"

Of very hot weather the health of the
people Of Cincinnati remains very good.
The old citizens are agreed that they
never knew the city in a more healthy

amount of whoOping cough among the

that disease In several cities, East and

reasonably entertained that the country

KNAVIaH FOOLS.

The New York Commercial Advertiser

and newspapers to bid the South address

Of war, 80 long as Stevens threat of con-
fiscation or the agrarisn talk of Butler
and Wade has the effect to induce vague
apprehension of coming evil, and while
the efforts of those who are studiously
endeavoring to rebuild the political
institutions of the South, in conformity
with the changed aspect of the times and
the requirements of the military bill, are
thwarted by the dread inspired by the
utterances of Northern agitators."

aHALL wEAKNEss TRIUMPH |

In this county we have at least ten
thousand men who, in one of the free
States, would be allowed to vote Nine
tenths of them are disfranchised. They
possess nearly all the property, the iR-
relligence, the virtue, and the energy.
They bear all the burdens of government
without being allowed to enjoy any of the
benefits Of it. They are simply the
slaves of about four or FIVE hundred other
white men who have obtained possession
of the county affairs and hope only to
retain power by the mean device of over
ruling popular sentiment by taking the
ballot from the people. Shall such a
poor, miserable, wretched party exert
more influence than ten thousand men
who despise them Shall all the power,
moral and intellectual possessed by the
people, pass for nothing in the presence
of handful of Adventures 1t is true,
that the men of Shelby county cannot go
to the polls like freemen and vote. But
have they no influence ? Do they not
possess a potoer, nevertheless 2 Yes,
and they intend to use it. In selfdefense,
they are justiGable in employing any
means which circumstances may afford
them. In a contest for liberty, all means
that'may promote its accomplishment are
justi6able and should be employed.
The man whom you feed, clothe and
shelter, should be dismissed from your
service the moment he joins your enc
mics.
A house divided against itself cannot
stand. Parties in the South organized
on race, will produce state of things so
desperate as to cripple industry, demon
alize commerce and overwhelm society
with confusion. The white people and
the black people cannot prosper together
unless they work together. Divided into
hostile parties, they cannot work to-
gether. This will be tested in less than
six months. The ten thousand substan-
tial men of this county should exert
their influence in dissusding the colored
people from committing so great folly
as that of running of after few ire
sponsible Radicals. The negro knows
nothing Of politics. He cannot know for
years to come. He may be taught by
few sharp examples what his interest is.
The first thing he is disposed to do after
obtaining his freedom, is to pick up his
bundle, and, without a crust of bread to
sustain him on the way, to start off
on a wild goose chase after something
that is impossible. The duty Of the hosr
is to befriend him, instruct him, warn
him, and save him, if possible, from the
consequences of his ignorance. Have
the three or four hundred white Radicals
in this county more influence with the
colored people than ten thousand gen.
tlemen? 1t remains to be tested. 1t
must, it will be put to the severest test,
and we have every confidence in the re-
