The sum.

Some Of the observations made with the
spectroscope during the eclipse, show that the
sun is rather large collection of minerals,
containing pretty general assortment of tho
metallic substances that are employed in the
arts in this country. The precious metals are
said to exist there also. 1t is surmised that
some American genius will invent plan for
smelling gold and silver from the sunbeams.
Probably we shall have to wait until he does
before we get a hard money currency again.

An Old Belief.

The Mormon belief, as sometimes enunciat-
ed by Brigham Young, has many glimpses of
poetry in it. He declares that our souls exist
ed before taking up with their present forms,
and that each soul has run an eternity of lives
and deaths. And SO he exclaims:
Angels are waiting and praying in the
spirit world for Gods time, to be born into the
tabernacle of the flesh"
The belief is as old as mankind; but Brig
ham is not aware of this, perhaps.
