LATE IA distinguished gentleman
who has for the past century been travel
ing on the continent for his health, recent
ly visited the Paris Exposition, and while
viewing in wonder and admiration, the
magnificent enterprise of his native land,
CHANGED to stroll into the bakery depart
ment of America. The recollections of his
childhood and home at once drew tears to
his eyes, aud in Imagination fancyng him
self .'boy again, cried Justify for bread.
Having satisfied his appetite, he remarked
the wonderful improvement on 'hard
tack,h being a soldier when Washington
crossed the Alps which circumstance re-
minded the baker of the strawberry on his
arm, and recognizing a long-lost brother,
impaired the secrct--SMITu's SALERArUs.

The Courier says that Mr.. Booth, an old
resident of Prairie du Chen, went into the
stable to feed his horse, which became in
furiated from the smell of blood on his
hands, fresh from butchering hogs. The
horse kicked and stamped Mr.. Booth SO
badly that he died from the injuries,

IsHARMoSIors.-The Observer, at Fay
cite, by Wood & Cole,-'a good firm for
winter" some one says,--doesn't seem to
regard the Ners as authority in all cases.
We take two pps. from back issue Of the
organ of the North Iowa seat of Learning.
A longer and most scorching good-natured
satirism is also clipped for future use in
the same direction. The Observer carries
guns too heavy for Fansticism. We enjoy
the controversy
The editor of the McGregor News claims
to be very radical gentleman, believing
Of course, that he is just right. At the
same time he is fierce advocate of Gen.
Grant, who is not hnown to be boiling over
radically. lie thinks that conservative
radical paradox--sy with slow
lightning) is the safest man to lead radical
radicalism. That is equivalent to saying
that such hot heads as the Ne,cs editor
ought not to be leaders ! Why then is he
public journalist if he sees his error and
will not amend?

A Washington dispatch to the New
York Tribune, says:
From conversations of different mem
bers of congress, it is inferred that a ma
iority Of the House is in favor of taxing
the bonds and it may be confidently stat
ed that bill looking to that object will be
produced after the holidays. The propo-
siton meets with general appreciation, and
there is no doubt Of the passage Of such a
measure.
As the Tribune has strongly protested
| against the taxation of government bonds,
it would hardly publish such a rumor as
the above without knowing that it had a
solid foundation. The radical newspapers
have imagined that it was their duty to
defend the interests of bondholders. bank
ers, manufacturers, and capitalists of all
kinds, when the interests Of the people
and of those classes came in conflict. Not
many months ago, the entire .lacobn press
| ayerred that it would be repudiation to
tax government bonds. There is but very
little of that kind Of talk now.
Congress has learned that there are lin
its to ''loyalty." The people will not suE
fer the currency to be contracted for the
benefit Of spectators in bonds, and they
refuse longer to permit those gamblers in
stocks to he exempt from taxation. Let
congress adopt that provision of the bill
reported by the finance committee of the
senate for the taxation of the bonds and
the distribution Of the proceeds among the
states according to population, and it will
give an exhibition of common sense which
will be both novel and refreshing Chica-

Brigham YOung's Harem.

a Salt Lake correspondent of the Bufa-
10 Express says: "But let US seek field
OF interest. Here on our right hand are
the private grounds of him who ruleth in
Zion, Brigham Young. Twenty acres lie

| pleasant walks and floral beauties. SUR
rounded by wall Of stone. Within this
| Enclosure are three princely mansions,
where live his thirty wives and numberless
progeny. Each of these houses carries a
name that disorder and confusion NAV not
arise in the camp Of Israel. They are the
Bee Hive House. Lion House, and White
House on the Hill. This mighty wall is
designed to shut out the world to exclude
inquisitive sight, but we shall venture to
of sunset, gliding the mountains with rap
turous light
We approach the massive iron gates.
and, unlike Moore's disconsolate Peri. we
are permitted to enter the domestic para
disc. Strollng lcisurely along the grassy
walks, our attention is attracted to the sin
gular movements of an elderly woman, her
hair streaked with silyery threads, yet
with step firm and elastic. This even
ing's air is inviting, and she seems to en-
JOY its freshness. In her hands is an open
book lean it be Griffith Gaunt :, or, Jeal-

of the hands, as her fading eye rekindles
with y look that would seem to say, ooh,

This woman, forty years ago, became
Brigham Youngs first wife. But who can
be the victim of that malignant scorning
What poor mortal is being crushed be-
tween her clenched teeth ? Can it be ],

aspen and maple---and under their thin
yellow-tinged top is bright eyed woman
Of twenty summers, who now leans on an
old mans arm. By what power we know
not, but, as if drawn by magic hand our
steps are directed thith rward. The now
mistress of the heart and situation flashes
winsome looks and breathes poetic words !;
he, old man that he is, and slave of sensu-
alism, treads on the floor of his own para
disc, and smiles approving glances. This
man is Brigham Young, and this woman
his very last and prettiest wife. No Won
