Memory and Arithmetic.

There is popularity about the memories
and the arithmetical accomplishments of gen.
tlemen who have enjoyed experience in Con-
gressional and legislative Hobbies. Such
persons can no doubt, remember all their
ordinary moneyed transactions what sums
they receive, what debts they pay and what
investments they make but when they come
in contact with large sums of money received
by them for aiding legislation, their memory
fails them and they are as stupid with figures
as the Ounce of the village school 1t was so
with Cakes Ames and Schumacher. 1t is so
with Nolan. Our talented Assistant District
Attorney could, no doubt tell US just how he
spends his salary and his professional income
to the last dollar, and could give us the cor
rect footings of his grocers bills and
butchers bills if we felt interested in the lnfor-
nation; but large sums coming unexpectedly
and earned easily confound his memory and
overpower his arithmetic. He can tell us
nothing about it. How much money he re-
ceived and what he did with it is oil o blank
TO him. He does not know who shared his
good fortune, and declines to say whether
any portion Of it went to ex-Speaker Hustled
or Aleck Frear-of course because his men,
DRY fails him on the point The investigating
committee affect to be anxious TO Jog his
memory and improve his arithmetic. The
probability is that their efforts in this direc-
ton will be abortive.

TIE Mormon MASSACRE Additional de-
tails of the horrors Of the Mountain Meadow
massacre are given in the report of the trial
yesterday, and the new testimony strength
ems the evidence that John D. Lee
was not only the leader Of the
band, but that some of the most
heartless murders were committed by his own
hand. The truth as revealed by this trial
should have the effect Of making odious the
Mormon missions in Europe, yet we presume
it will be represented as cruel persecution Of
the Church by the United States government,
