gress, last week, in support of the bill to re-
vive the navigation and commercial interests

BRIGHAM YOUNG has undertaken one of
the most difficult tasks of his busy lite. He
has assumed to interfere with the inalenable
prerogative of his wives by denouncing the
fashions of the Gentle world. In his last
sermon before the conference his instructions
to the Saints were very decided in tone. He
classed the entire range of fashions as de-
vices of the wicked, bonnets, dresses, boots
and parasols, all 10 be condemned by those of
the true faith; and when he asked the ladies
to signify their determination to make their
own clothes and not to make them in the
fashion, the Tabernacle was white with up
raised hands. The secret of the movement
probably is that as Brigham grows older,
with more wives and children, and the latter
reach the age when dress is naturally prom
inent object with them, he feels the burdens
that eventually come with such large family.

A STORY WITH MoRAL.-A young
man paying special attention to young
lady, met with the following incident
during one Of his visits:
Being invited into the parlor to await
the lady's appearance, he entertained
himself as best he might for some time,
and was becoming very weary, when
little girl about five years old slipped in
and began to converse with him.
Il can always tell when you are COM
ing to our house." she said "Why,
when you are going to be hers, sister
begins to sing and get good; she gives
me cake and pie, and everything want,
and she sings so sweetIy when you are
here, and when speak to her she smiles
30 pleasantly. wish you would stay
here all the while; then could have n
good time. But when You 60 off. sister
is not good. She gets mad, and if I ask
her anything she slaps and bangs me
about"
This was poser for the young man.
''Fnols and children tell the truth. F"
he muttered, aud taking his hat, he left
and returned no more.
MoRAL.-farents wishing their ill.,
natured daughters married should keep
their small children out of the parlor
when strangers are there.

and widely extended public experience, and

among the rcstorativcs of our day belongs of
right, and beyond all dispute, to Hostettcr's
Stomach Bitters. Let those who are taking
it answer for themselves as to it's tonic pro

used it, question it's superiority as Il sto-
machic over every other medicine? Can any
person OF bilious habit who has ever taken it
for liver complaint, doubt its efficiency? II is

are now using, or have heretofore used it as

RICHMOND, Aug. 5.-A dispatch from
Raleigh says that the conservatives have
carried the North Carolina Legislature
It also says That Judge Brooks of the
United States Court will issue write of
habeas corpus for The Caswell prisoners,
The conservatives have gained Con-
grcssman in Rockingham On. G } district.
WILmrNcroN, Aug. 5.-The returns
received to-day from the eastern and
central portion Of the State Indicate the
election of foar conservative congressman
from the third, fourth, sixth and seventh
districts, with the fifth district in doubt.
The conservatives gain in nearly every
county heard from, leaving but little
doubt Of majority in tho Leg islaturo on
joint ballot.
The returns already iu show that the
conservatives have gaind 80 members of
the Legislature, with more than half the
counties yet to bear from. A gain of SO
members will give the conservative es q
majority on joint ballot. In tho third
congressional district Dockery loses in ev-
cry county heard from. In New Hano-
yer ho loses near 1 600 on a former vote
That county certainly elects one con serva-
tive Senator and ono conservative Repre-
sentative. ....+,-.
WILMINGTON, N. c., August 6.-Ro-
turns enough are received to settle tho
fact that the Conservatives carry both
houses of tho Legislature by decisive ma
jorities. Thoy also carry the third, fourth ].
fifth, sixth and seventh Congressional
district, which makes the delegation
stand Eve Conservatives to two Republi-
cans. In the third district Wad6ell (Con-
sentative is undoubtedly elected, though
two counties arc yet to hear from. Caro-
fal estimates fix his majority at 375.
It is believed that Ship (Conserva-
tive), for attorney general, has carried
tho State.
