The CABLE. - Another chord is
stretched bepeath the sea ; another na-
| tion is now linked 10 America by an
iron tie. VAN is the roar of the angered
pillows, Idle the beayings OF the pulses
of the sea- Over all their waves still,
small voice is heard. no louder tina n
The tick of clock, but potent still as
the whisper Of an aogel. Who knows
but it is t.? Who will explain this mys
terry surrounding our earth, blazing 10
the sky, ou'rrnning the hours, and fol
lowing, swifter than the beatings of the
wings OF light, that slender chord down
beneath the terrible sea? There is some
thing which connects US with the high
er world beyond something which can
lift us up In thought above the SORROWS
of this Z" Working day world, until, in
fancy, we can almost imagine we are
walking on higher planes than those of
earth. Is il rot this subtle fluid which
transports oar souls, even as 1t bears
the words of nations beneath the sea
and ticks their meaning to the listening
nations beyond. And now it LINKS US
with France. France, the beautiful and
brave, which was our counrry's friend
when we were notyet nation who in
all the years since has never wronged
US, but has ever sympathized with us
in our sorrow and rejoiced in our joy.
Welcome. then, TO this new tie may
the corrosions of time never reach it
may the waters be still upon it, and its
coral bed forever bold il safe. And
between us and the beautiful France be-
yond, m.y there never message be
borne except of friendship and good

TIE END OF MoRMoH1sM.

The St. Louis Democrat declares that
Mormonism is about to come to an end
in Utah Territory. The argument il
that the Mormons are generally Of for
eign birth that they are ignorant and
superstitious F; tina, they have been kept
TO the faith by non-intercourse with the
American people that the Pacific Rail
road has opened Utah to public gaze ;
that thousands of travellers and traders
will visit Salt Lake annually that the
church authorities will be compelled to
relax their despotic grasp upon the
saints, and accord the gentiles more
privileges than thes have heretofore en-
joyed that non-believers will settle iu
the Territory in large numbers, and
rapidly overthrow Mormonism by en-
Tightening and making thinkers of its
devotees. This, says the Dem ocrat, is
what is being done, and what the con-
tinental railroad will render the best
facilities for doing With no convulsion
or outbreak, the system of polygamists
may sink into desuetude. The Demo-
crat concludes as follows:
II also appears there are Mormons 10
various parts OF the country who would
like to see the Utah Mormons crashed
out, 1t is also claimed that Brigham
Young and his followers are aposiaies
from the true faith, and that Great Salt
Lake is not the paradise of the Latter
Day Saints. The community of Latter
Day Saints at Pluno, in this State, re
ject polygamy and sheer at the ecclesi-
.sticaI pretensIons OF Brigham Young
while at thu same line they accept the
ioctriue of the Book of Mormon. They
regard the Salt Lake community "a a
to the Mormon name, and ex-
pect that some day their own leader, IA
quiet citizen and a son of their founder, |
Joseph Smith, will assume the Pres-
dency of the whole Mormon Church,
and do away with its Objectionable
features. The Mormons of California
are of the same opinion. They claim |
bat all the opprobrium of their name |
arises from the denominations which the |
Salt Lake leaders have introduced into |
tue Church. Besides those all over the |
who despise Mormonism by in
stinct, beside those who Themselves be-
Come embiItered and Disguised by wha'
they have seen in Utah, there are many
believers 10 It's distinctive tenets who
uynul5 reInIce in the 0yprfhrow of Rrip
nam Young and the polygamists- Thus
Desieged by forces drawing closer their
social aud geographical
lines, and attacked by enemies of the
same creed, the stronghold of Mormon
dom must speedily capitulate to civil
zation.

Usually the claims against the county for the

The New Spanish Captain General-Ser.
ramos Lieutenant who is to Replace
the Dying Dulce.

The name of the new Captain General of Cuba
Is Caballero de Rodas. He is about forty-6ve
years OF age; and was, previous to the Revolution
OF last Fall, a man of but little note in Spain.
linen he held the position in the regular armv of
Adr7scat di Campo, which corresponds to our
rank OF Major General: but as there is an inn
mense number of officers in the Spanish army.
many OF whom have seen but little service, the
fact that he held such position indicates nothing
as to his capacity. He was ALWAYS esteemed a
brave man and of rather n daring disposition.
When the revolution broke out he repaired at
once to the standard of Captain General Serrano,
under whose eyes he performed prodigies of valor
at the great battle of Puente de Alcolea. There
he was second in command, and to his conduct
the pronounclng party owed very much for the
brilliant result which crowned its arms. Isabel
Ia Ill. was dethroned, and De Rodas was immedi-
ately promoted to a Lieutenant Generalcy.
When the Republicans a few months ago raised
the disturbances in Aeres, Cadiz, and Malaga.
DE Rodas was despatched as the right hand man
OF General Serrano to suppress them. He did
this, but In an exceedingly brutal manner. Cadiz
was bombarded for three days, and Malaga for a
whole week, which caused the loss of q great
number of lives, while thousands were wounded.
His action at Here's was likewise bloodtbirstv.
and upon the whole all Europe was struck with
horror at his conduct. 1t must be borne in mind
that the men killed and wounded in these places
materially aided Serrano, De Rodas, and the other
chiefs, during the revolution and it was added
that the bioodshed, or at any rate the greater
part of it, could have been and would have been
avoided by a prudent General and good man, the
impression naturally left must be that the new
Governor General is a bold, bloody, bad man.
The chief officer of Cuba is both Captain Gen.
eral of the armies and Governor General of the
province. In the civil service De Rodas has,
it is believed. never spent a day, his whole tastes
and previous occupations having been exclusively
military. Looking to his past history, and his
training as a soldier, one can easily believe that
his Government will indeed be an era of blood
shed. He will have but little use for the law.
Everything will assume a military, despotic
shape, and the Cubans will, if possible, fare
harder under his rule than under that of Dulce.-

little Offices with tin signs on the doors of each,
and hear men talking of attachments without

your profit to mind the words of the prophet, and

And if you go round where the merchants are

you, are especially anxious to learn the condition

worms and the crops, and offer to sell you a little
bill of goods a good deal lower than their cost, on
account of their love for you, and for cash-ah-
s' pass on to Shun'em.'
And if you should happen to go to the Cosmo-
politan Corner-and see men drinking beer, that

n MAN SAWED COMPLETELY IN Two.-Our civ
was yesterday the scene of one of the most horri-
bic accidents we have ever been called upon to
record. About n quarter past one o'clock, at
fenable's saw mill, on Third street, the bonds
were engaged in placing a log on the saw carriage,
just as the. saws were set in motion. \ Young
man, about twenty years old, who had been
engaged in taking the bark off the log, was in
the act of stepping on the frame between the log
and the saws, when, either being struck by the
log as it moved forward, or in some other way lit
was impossible to tell howl, he was caught bv
the upper saw and drawn upon both of them.
The saws were then running with eighty pounds
OF steam, and making over six hundred revolu-
lions per minute and in less time than it takes
to record the fact, the unfortunate man was sawed
completely IN two, the two portions of the BODY
falling on different sides of the saw frame. The
saws struck him in the left side and passing
transverscly upwards, came out behind and a
little above the right shoulder blade. The heart
was IN one portion of the body and the lungs in
the other. The saws were, of course stopped as
speedily as possible, but only to find the mangled
remains lying on the floor of the mill, and the
tattered fragments of clothing and bits of flesh
to them. 1t was a shocking spectacle
and one that made the very heart sick to look
upon. The name Of the unfortunate young man
IL mas been impossible to ascertain. He came
from Virginia City, Montana, and boarded Mt MIR.
wills boarding house, on Fourth street, and had
lett a carpet satchel at the Huxley House. The
latter was examined and found to contain moth
ing but an old novel and a couple of bottles of
the latter indicating that he had
been engaged In trapping.-&. Joseph (Mo.)
