to abolish the rank of admiral and vice
admiral in the navy, during which Gen.
Butler paid his respects to Admiral Por

lately appeared in print 1t was brief,
but severe castigation, to which the
House and galleries gave their undivided
attention. He said among other things,
that he could not vote to continue man

The nomination to the Senate to-day
of Gen. Alfred Pleasanton, now collector

to be commissioner of internal revenue,
created great deal of dissatisfaction
among the congressional friends Of other
candidates, and especially among the Ke-
publican delegation from Pennsylvania
some of whom felt assured that deputy
Douglas of that State would be appoint
ed They openly declared that the Presl-
dents refusal to give Pennsylvania a
more prominent representation in the ad-
ministration will lose them the State in
the coming election. But few Congress
men indorsed Gen. Pleasanton, and the
grand and noble army of the Republic

BAYARD TAYLOR AND BRIGHAM
YOUNG,

Bayard Taylor writes from Salt Lake
City to the New York Tribune:
was ushered into handsome, well
furnished room, divided by a wooden
screen from dim back office. The floor
was csrpeted, circular table, with q
great globe of gold fish, was in the cen
Ter, sofas and chairs were on either side,
end the wall were covered with pictures
szportraits of Joseph and Hyram Smith,
Alpine landscapes, and a chromotint of
Bierstadt's Sunshine and shadoy,'
which the artist had sent to Brigham
Young. we took seats upon one of the
sofas, while tvs or three stralgers-ap-
parently Mormons from the country
waited on the opposite one. In a few
minutes Brigham Young came out
from his Office. At the first glance
you would take him to'be a successful
bank or railroad President, and
his quick, Straightforward, business.
like manner carries out the impression.
After he is seated, however, and you have
q chance Of observing his features more
COSBY, tbs signs of quality with which
bank Presidents Gre not accustomed to
deal, begin to manifest themselves. He
is both short and broad, but his thickness
gives the impression of strength, rather
than corpulence. Although sixty-nine
Ses+s oil, there is no gray in his sandy
hair, and his small blHe eyes are keen and
full - power. His head is large and az
preaching to .anuarepess in its form, and
his complexion is strong, healthy rely
His thin, firm set mouth and large law
express an indomitable energy. The ger.
eral expression Of his face is at once reti-
cent and watohful. In his greeting there
was the blsndness of an acquired rather
than q natural courtesy. His voice is
mild, even toned, and agreeable, and l
can imagine that he might make him
self fascinating TO women, most of
whom find a peculiar charm in a
playful, Purring lion. He said
but little ct first and q thought
seemed to be holding himself secretly at
bay for questions which did ROt intend
to ask. By-and-by, when ! referred to
the similarity of the scenery to that OF
Asia Minor, and led the conversation to
the resources of the Territory, he spoke
freely and auently, and gave me consid-
cradle information concerning the remote
southern countries. On all points of ma
terisl growth lie was frankly Gomm4nica-
i've. White hs Wss talking studied his
face sufficiently TO detect the three chief
qualities IF bis nsture-grest prudence,
great determination, and great belief IN
himself.
During the visit of his eldest son, MI.
A. Joseph Young, came into the room.
lie Is tall blonde, good looking man o.
thirty, very cheerful and courteous in his
demesnor. He is intelligent and practi
cal, but venture to say-will never de-
Velop into a prophet. Brigham's brother,
John Young, an old, gray-headed man,
also came; and, soon afterward, hearing
bill ring somewhere in the interior of
the house, took me leave.
