The New York and Long Branch
Railroad Company has organized by
electing Senator Little President
About $4,000 has been subscribed,
and $4,000 more promised from Key
port, if the route is located to suit
them. The Executive Committee were
empowered to engage an engineer to
survey two or three different routes for
the location of the road. 1t is proPo-
sed to bridge Raritan river from South
Amboy to Perth Amboy, and thence
go to New York over the New Jersey
Railroad, passing through Newark.
The chief hitch in the enterprise is
the old jealousy between Matawan and
Keyport, both of which want the new
road to pass through their limits, and
neither of which will consent to lend il
any aid if not located to suit their pc.
cuhar views. As these views are ex
tremely diverse, it is not probable thai
q route can easily be fixed upon to suit
both parties.

BRIGHAM YoUNG's WIVES. In late
address by Brigham Young, in his Tab
ernacle, he said
4" A great many ask me how many
wives I have; but to tell the honest

Brigham made quite defense of
polygamy, and seemed to admit that
many OF the sisters disliked the system.

Under the caption Of Tattlers' we
find the subjoined article published in
one of our exchanges, and copy it
under the impression that it has quite
as much application to our community
as any other:
Every community is cursed by the
presence of class OF people who make
it their business Gto attend to every
body's business but their own. Such
people are the meanest specimens of
depraved humanity which an all-wise
Providence permits to exist on this
cursed earth. 1t is well-known that
almost every person is disposed to
speak evil of others ; and tattling is a
sin from which very few can claim to
exempt. But the object of our present
article is to speak of that distinct class
of tattlers who make tale bearing the
constant business of their lives. They
pry into the private affairs of every
family in the neighborhood, they know
the exact state of one neighbours feel
ings towards another, they understand
everybody's faults and no little blunder
or misdemeanor ever escapes their
watchfulness. They are particularly
we'll posted up on everything connect
ed with courtship and matrimony,
know all who are going to marry
whom, and can guess the exact time
when it will take place. They watch
every movement of parties suspected
of matrimonial intentions, and if there
is the slightest chance to create a dis
turbance, excite, jealousy, OF " break
up" match, they take immediate
advantage of it, and do all in their
power to keep people in a constant
state of vexation. They glide from
gentleman to lady, from mother to
daughter, from father to son, and in
the ears of all they pour their dark,
bitter whispers Of ISLANDERS and abuse,
and at the same time pretend to be the
most sincere friends of those they talk
to. Their black and nauseous pills of
malicious SANDER are sugar-coated
with smiles and honeyed words of
friendship.
Tattlers are confined to no particular
class OF society. They belong TO all
classes, and operate in all. We find
in them the rich and the poor" upper
ten and CLOVER million" in the
church and out Of it. They are people
who have no higher ambition than to
be we'll informed in regard to other
peoples private business, to retail
scandal to their neighbors, and eXult
in fiendish triumph over the wounded
feelings and bruised heart of their in
nocent victims. Beauless old maids
and childish matrons make the most
accomplished scandal mongers in the
| world. Iney seem 10 take 10 tattllh6
from the promptings of natural in
stinct, and they prosecute it with an
energy that would do internal honor to
their great leader--the prince of dark
ness himself Our contempt for such
graceless creatures knows no bonds,
and we can find no words in which to
express its infamy. What punishment
they deserve we cannot know but
God knows, and as sure as His eternal
justice reigns, they will receive re-
tribution proportional to the magni-
tude of their offences against the laws
of God and the interests OF humanity.

1t was our fortune to attend a man
slowly dying of consumption, who,
while hopelessly and helplessly III,
was deVotedly cared for by his wife,
who at the time felt herself, and seem
ed to be, in perfect health.
Years after her husbands death
and when bravely battling against
the disease, which commenced lis
insidious attacks Immediately subse-
quent 70 his death, she related to me
the following facts, but only on my
definite inquiries as to how Intimate
her relations had been with him dur
ing. his illness. It seems that often,
in wintry nights, that faithful woman
would arise from the side Of her hus-
band, who was lying with his dress
drenehed with the chilling sweat of
Increasing disease, and would per-
suade him to take her warm. clothing
and to lie down in the dry warm
place she had just left, while, simply
throwing blanket over it, she would
take the spot previously occupied by
him.
Upon our expressing a horror at
the thought of the danger she had
run, and which, apparently, had told
with so much power upon her, she
quietly remarked that she knew at
the time the danger she was incur
ring. She had no thought of dam
ger to herself, and only Of her hus-
bands comfort. "But," added she,
IL then got what never recovered
from" A certain vitality seemed to
go out OF her; and though her nature
contended for many years against
the lncroachments of the disease, she |
nnally died, always believing that
Sne mad taken consumption from her
husbandi but with certain martyr
like joy that such had really been the
fact.
We have now in our mind other
and analogous cases, as, for example,
husbands having their first cough
when "inhaling the breath of their
sick wives" while ministering to
their necessities. We have known
daughters and sisters, who, full of ap-
parent health and strength, when
consumption has seized mother or
sister, have continued to sleep with
the invalid and to breathe the same
closed up atmosphere at night, and to
watch all day without, perhaps, a
moment of healthful out-of door exer-
else. And we have been distressed
to find not a few of such healthy
young persons gradually beginning to
suffer with Indigestion, debility, and |
finally cough, and all the symptoms
OF consumption. In some-iustances,
in fact, the attendant has died before |
the life of the original patient has
ended. These facts are very signi-
fcant, and although we are we'll !
aware that, in some of them, other
elements of disease may have had
their fatal influences, still the cases
have been full Of suggestions as to
the necessity of greater precautions
than we, in this country, have usual
ly taken in this matter.

Singing.

Singing is n great 'iHstitution. It
oils the wheels of care, and supplies
the place ofsunshine. A man who
sings has good heart under his
shirt front. Such man not only
works more willingly, but he works
more constantly. A singing cobbler
will earn as much again money as d
cordwainer who gives way to low
spirits and indigestion. Avaricious
men never sing. The man who at
tacks singing throws a stone at the
head Of hilarity, and would, if be
could, rob June of its roses and Au-
gust of its meadow larks. Singing
promotes health, strengthens tho
voice, the organs Of the throat and
lungs, and prevents or cures con-
sumption. Singing is an excellent
agent for promoting mental hygiene.

Miscellaneous.
Company Manner,

! There is no greater education into vul-
gsrity than home carelessness. A man OF
woman, brought up under such system
is ruined for all the reality Ofrehnement
in after years, The sUrliness too often al
lowed at home, where children are per-
mitted to be snappish to each other, dis
obliging and discourteous, ruins the man
ners as much as 1t hurts the mind. Hence
we come to company manners, to a sickIy
sweetness put on for the occasion, to q
formaIity Of speech and an oppressiveness
of attentions, TO an exaggerated politeness
that is so terribly afraid of transgressing
into liberties as to be absolute bondage,
and to all thesiIIy little afectations belong
ing to the condition.
We never know any one whom we have
not lived with, and even then not always.
To be admitted into the Temple does not
include entrance into the adytum; and we
may remain for weeks in a house where
master, and mistress and maids are all
reticent alike, and may know nothing of
the reality underlying the surface. Peo-
pie Of whom once knew something, and
who were notorious1y ill-matched, but
marvelOusly polite, could keep their house
full Of company, and yet allow none of
their guests to find out that the husband
and wife were not on speaking terms. All
the communication between them that
was absolutely necessary was carried on
by writing. Personally, these two, dis
pensing smiles and civilities to all around,
held no direct intercourse. Yet they man
aged so well that no one saw through the
screen.
With company manners and. company
dress, there is also company voice.
Who does not know that false voice of So
ciety? Mineing or thrown boldly for
ward, flung into the chest or pitched up
into the head, it is all the same-the COM
pany voice, accent. choice Of words, and
register-all artificial alike. And there
are company gestures. People sit and
stand and walk, and use their hands, ae-
cording to the different degrees of famil-
iarity in which they stand toward their
society. There is vast deal of company
make-believe among It's; and if we would
only give half the time we now bestow on
Choking pretty' and sebehaving pretty'
in society, to, being sweet tempered, and
amiable, and careful Of pleasing, at home,
it would be allthe better for ourselves and
our families, and a gain in the way of true
