MAYOR HALLS VIND1cATIoN. Mayor Hall

last evening, under the auspices Of the Central

his native wilds? Is Great Britain to become
mistress Of Egypta After her war with
France Is ended is Prussia to fight with Austria
once more, or is she to fight with her mighty
Northern neighbour A congress may not
settle all these questions, but the first Euro
pean congress will have to think Of them and
do its best to smooth them down. A general
uprise of the peoples may surprise and battle
the plans and defeat the prospects of the mo-
marches. In any case we cannot say that
peace concluded between France and Prussia
will imply the permanent peace of Europe.
Looking at all the possibilities and probabili-
ties of the European situation, we feel that in
this free, wide-spreading, rich American land
our lines have fallen in pleasant places.

Brigham Young Is troubled in consequence
Of the gradual decline of his absolute authority
in Utah. So is his Holiness the Pope at the
loss of his temporal power in the Peninsula;
Both these heads Of the Church have been
pronounced infallible but now neither has any
longer that undisputed sway in his dominions
which each respectively held so long. 1t Ia
only few weeks since the regular semi-annual
Conference Of the Saints met and adjourned
as usual. But Brigham summoned all the
faithful to assemble in the Tabernacle q
week ago in special council. The saints
were getting too worldly, he said, and
they needed some more spiritual instruction.
Perhaps Brigham Young had new revela-
ton to communicate privately to the
bishops. IF SO. was it to resist the
authority Of the United States government,
in Utah, or to quietly and sensibly submit to
it9 The policy Of the federal officials bothers
him. The recent decisions of Chief Justice
Mexican have deprived the Mormon courts Of
much of the jurisdiction they have heretofore
assumed. The Governor firmly refused to
permit the annual muster of the Mormox
militia under the Mormon commander. Somef
of the city authorities have been on trial before
the federal court for destroying all the valuabla
stock in Gentle liquor store, and the jury
have rendered verdict Of over fifty-nine thou
sand dollars-three times the vslue of the stock
destroyed-in favor Of the proprietor. The
reformers who have seeded from the Church
are seriously undermining Brigham's influence
among the saints. The Methodist and Episco-
palian missions have already accomplished.
much In the way Of dispelling superstitions.
The mines are attracting crowds of Geutiles,
and the railroad affords facilities for eonve-
nient communication with the outer world.
All these things trouble Brigham Young, who
feels gliding from his grasp the power he
welded once not so wisely as so well.

THE PERSECUTION OF CHRISTIANS IN DA-
MAscUs has been revived, and fears are enter
tanned that it will culminate in another mas
sacre. Christianity has met with opposition
in every age, from the birth Of Christ down to
this nineteenth century. But the Gospel and
the other civilizing elements that 60 hand in
hand with it have been gradually gaining
ground throughout the world, and though
ignorant barbarians and fanatics may
add to the ''roll of honor" of the Chris
tian martyrs of ancient and modern times,
civilization and Christianity will be univer-
sally triumphant in the end. These reports Of
persecution and impending massacre, while
they awaken our sympathy for those who are
oppressed, should also make us thankful that
here in the United States perfect religious
liberty is enjoyed

THE DETAILS OF THE WRECK OF THE VARUNA,
as they reach us, contain some unusual elements
Of horror even in shipwreck. The passengers
were drowned in their staterooms, being
Gagged, as it were, by the waves bursting in the
cabin doors. The captain and number of
the crew, while escaping in their boat, were
caught foul of the rigging and went down
helplessly with the ship. The second mate
and four men escaped after dreadful suferings

Dress Fashions from tho Antipodes.
The social Generalization and domestic dis
turbances which have been produced on the
Continent of Europe by the waryy combined
with the nothing to wear" necessities which
the pauperizatisns of the great struggle have
forced on the people of Paris, have resulted
in a temporary interruption of our special
weekly dress fashions letter. We have had
no despatch from our correspondent by the
two latest Cunard steamships. The cause has
been, most likely, lack Of material. Paris
is completely confused and vests itself, so far
as the inhabitants may have Q good supply of
clothing, very probably after the style of Bryan
O'Lynn, with the wrong side of its coat turned
out and the skirt tails tied round the neck.
Distressed humanity is hardly ever permitted
to languish iGar any great length Of time. The
''chocls and balances" Of the globe tend to
make things square at any one particular point
of difficulty. In our present dress fashions news
emergency Australasia, the antipodes, comes
to the relief of New York Paris, in its men
tai and physical decay, is likely to be super
seeded by the active mind and inventive genius
of the free settlers who cultivate the territory
of the aborginals. BY the Australian mail,
just to hand, we received the description of
grand costume which was worn by the May
Dress of Melbourne at recent municipal en-
tertainment in that city. 1t was an original,
brilliant and most artistic combination of
clothing material, trimmings and Ornamental
ton. Almost all the countries of the Old
World had contributed something to the
makeup. The lady appeared in the room a
brilliant, yet homogeneous, graceful and patron
izing cosmopolitan friend to both foreign
and home industry. The description of her
costume, which we publish ts-day, may well
console the fair ladies of New York for the
absence of our Paris letter, for in this Austria
lasian toilet were blended the germs and points
of ideas for the newest and grandest sort of
combinations by eur nodtstes. Van Dieman
was, as may be seen by his portrait, a very
graceful fellow, indeed. May the children of
his land Of discovery continue to flourish in an
earthly glory which is equalled only by the
plumage of their own parrots and macaws!

By special cable telegram from London we
have an ample verbatim report Of the circum-
stances which attended the exodus Of the
American residents from Paris, and OF the
af.er-journey Of the members Of the liberated
company to Versailles. 1t was an unusually
exciting occasion; joyous, yet melancholy
withal Our fellow citizens, ladies as
well as gentlemen, were aroused from
their slumbers before daybreak and duly
mustered for the march. Carriages were
hired and goody caravan line organized.
The weather was cold and gloomy. It was
in suitable contrast with the mournful sur
roundings. Soldiers lined the sidewalks and
crowded the streets. The butchers were serv-
ing out their morning rations to a hungry popu-
lace. Joy appeared to have been banished
from Paris; want bewilderment and dismay
reigned supreme. The members Of the exiled
party were under the heavy guns Of
the defence and observed the grim
stand to-arms attitude Of the French
gunners. Having ''shaken the dust
from their feet" our countrymen
hoisted a neutral flag on each Of the different
carriages and proceeded; the struggling penant
still 'looking back" towards city Of former
hopes; place Of many friendships and re-
grets. Clearing the barriers, and having
journeyed some few miles, the Americans OBJ
served the spiked helmets Of the Prussians.
Here they came up to a barrier thrown across
the road. 1t was mounted with two guns.
This fact assured them that the controlling
power Of the Prussians stood there; that the
heart Of France was ligatured; that fiery
cincture was consuming her strength. A
Prussian officer met the Americans. He was
instructed by Bismarck. It is, consequently,
useless to repeat that he was calm, methodi-
cal, strict, accurate and gentlemanly. Pass
ports and papers were examined, names regis
tered and written assurance that no letters
were being carried out exacted from each
of the travellers. Assured at all points
the German officer retired. The Ameri-
cans proceeded. The journey to ver-
sailles was replete with incident There
were runaway team and terrified
ladies. carriage mending by the roadside,
breakfast Of cheese and beer, the cutting Of
memorial sticks, deluge of rain, thousands
Of soldiers, with Versailles in the distance be-
fore the eyes Of hungry, wet and fatigued
and travel-soiled party. Versailles was
reached by nightfall. Here there was kind
reception, repairing Of damages, dinner, light
and cbit-chat, with the delight of the remem-
brance Of dangers past. The members Of
this American party from Paris, of whom
many names are given in our special despatch,
will have ''good deal to talk about" beneath
their own ''vine and fig tree, iu home and
happy land w =
