MoRMoSs IN ELKToN, MD.-The Cecil (A1d.)
H'hto gives IAN account Of visit to Elkton
recently of Mr.. John Young youngest sou
of Brigham Young and his wife. The Wing
says:
Mrs. Young some seven years ago, when
she was Miss Lizzie Garfield, lived in Elk
ton. A very pretty, cultivated girl was she
in those DAYS, and stood in the millinery
store of Mrs. Brown. Miss Lizzie Garfield
was a second cousin of young Brigham, her
mother and old Patriarch Brigham IounS's
first wife being first cousins. Miss Lizzie's
rarcnts resided in Philadelphia. What ac-
uuaintance existed between the young folks
OF the Young family OF Salt Lake and the Can
fields We do not know; but Miss Lizzie, after
leaving Elkton, started on trip, accompanied
ONLY bya Younger sister. to visit the founys
of Mormon notoriety. and also for the pur-
pose of marrying John. This was delibe-
rate undertaking, which required no little
nerve for young, wcll-educated, accom-
plished, Philadel2 hia-bred lady, but Miss
Lizzie was equal to the adventure. Now,
this undertaking will appear the more risky
and formidable when we take into the ac-
count that young Young had already two
wives. What immediate family arrangement
took place we are not advised, but the two
first wives had to be discarded to satisfy the
lastidiousncSs of the coming woman. One
of the two-the first, we bclieyc-waS d.
vorccd, and the second was d'Scdrdcd,
turned away, with The arrival, or previous
to it. Of the young queen.
about four years ago delegation OF
pickcd women was sent 10 Washington to
intcrcedc with the President in behalf OF
MormonSm and Mrs. Young, Jr., was
among the plumber. But as Mrs. CrcSwcll.
who il will be remembered resides at Elk
ton. was present, she was recognized by Mrs.
Young. and she became suddenly sick and
left Mrs. Crc>wcl, however, met heralter-
ward, but failed to recognize her, The spe-
ci;l object of Mrs. Young east was to meet
her husband, who has just returned from
Europe; and nothing would satisfy her but
for them to visit Elkton together. They dld
50, and received Il large number Of the wiie's
former friends at the Howard House, where
they stopped. Mrs. Young insisted on a
marriage in the States in the old style she
had been taught in her girlhood to honor,
and john had to succumb before she
would leave Salt Lake, declaring that she
could never face her former friends unless
she was married by the ceremony acknoWi-
edged by them to be proper"

TwEED's AuroBloGRAPHY.-The1 r,-StdteS,
of Port Jervis, N. Y, of Friday, gives cur
rency to q report that Tweed at last is gong
to make revelations of his mode OF buying
Legislatures and manipulating politics. IL
says
"a former resident of Port Jcrvs, VINO
saw William NJ. Tweed shortly after bis con-
vction, informs us that Mr.. Tweed surprised
him by stating that he proposed to publish Il
book, of an photographed character, as
soon as he can secure time enough to attend
to it. Dir. Tweed has carefully kept diary
of his life, and he proposes, now that he
occupies felon's cell. to give the world
some startling disclosures. He proposes to
tell his manner of doing business, whom he
bought to serve his purposes, and what the
average price of Albany Legislators is. Pro-
babIy no one man in the country has had SO
varied an experience in this line as Mr.
Tweed. and no man can make such start
ling revelations. Hundreds Of stralg llt'laced,
oroper-acting people will by this book DC
shown up in their true light, and the world
at large will get an idea of the inner WORK
ings OF IL gigantic ring. We predict Tor inc

The circumstances which have constrained
the Department to this unusual activity and
consequent expenditure are known to you

FATAL BuRSIHG.-On Monday last, near
this place. a colored woman and little
daughter Of William Wise (colored) were
burned to death The child had been play
inc with fire in the yard and, its garment
becoming ignited ran in fright towards il
bianch near by. It's aunt, Mary Parker,
seeing the child in light blaze, Immediately
overlook it, and attempted to extingulsh the
flames by wrapping her skirts about it. This,
unfortunately, instead of having the desired
effect, only added fuel to the devourng ele-
ment, and soon they were both enveloped in
a fierce sheet of flame. The child survived
only few hours, and the woman died the
following night. DR.. Lealherbury dressed
the injuries, but they were of such charac-

L Correspondence Of the Missouri Republican,
i WAsaiNGTos,@D O., December 2, 1872
As fnF as have, been able TO find out, the
IL orty.third Congress Is remarkable for three
fpeculiarities: 1t is the largest legislative
body that ever assembled in the capitol it
contains the greatest number Of new men,
bers, and it has the strongest representation
of eX-Confederates. Aside from these three
existing peculiarities, it promises to develop
others Of equal importance as the session
progresses. The House organization cere-
monies yesterday were tame enough, and
but for the conspicuous presence Of ex.Vice-
President Stephens on the floor there would
not have been single feature of interest in
The OCCASION.
ArRELIC OF THE FAST.
The old man sat at front desk at the LETT
of the central aisle as you face the Speaker.
with his hat on, like Quaker preacher, and
his crutches by his side. Through neat
bit of courtesy he had been accorded The
privilege of first choice of seats, Gistinc-
ton which properly belongs to the Oldest
sitting member of the House. On some ac-
counts Mr.. Stephcns's presence in the House
is good thing. On other accounts, per-
haps, his district could have been better rep
resented by a younger and less historical
man.
When ! sit in the reporters gallery and
look down at the colorlcsS, corp>e-ike face
of the wan old man
The face is immobile; the skin clings to it
like Iifeless parchment; the lips, wan as the
face, part but seldom, and then there isa
ghastliness in their smile that almost chills
your blood; the hands are limp and blood
less, cold, wax.like, and almost clammy in
your grasp. But out of this ply steal decay,
through the dark, quenchless eyes, there
shines the splendor of an intellect that has
survived all bodily intirmity. Debility and
paralysis have made of Mr.. Stephens's body
simply an articuated skeleton. But despite
the fcebleneness of its tenement, the brain
that throbs and is busy beneath that
silvery hair is all the brain Of yore, when it
was wont to stay the tides of gathering reyo-
luton and make States and people halt for
second thought in the all-inyolving madness
of secession. Ifanybody wants an argument
to prove the Immortality of the soul, let him
look at Alexander Fl. Stephens Us he sits
pallid and motioness in his scat, like one
who has died suddenly in his chair, and then
let him call out the intellect that teens with
in the apparition in conversation upon topics
that command deep learning and subtle
thought.
