LETTER FROM OGDEN
OGDEN CRY, UTAH, Aug, 3, 1875.
Our trio of travelling companions sepa-
rated very abruptly at Ogden, Sabbath
morning, July 25tlA after very pleasant
trip out ftom Boise Mrs. Hill took Pull
man for st. Joseph, DR.. Jameson LETT for
Fort Hail. where he goes on official bust
ness connected with the church, and your
correspondent availed himself of the op-
portunity to hear Rev. Thomas Guard, q
clerical celebrity Of Baltimore Methodism'
who is seeking home on our coast, where
he hopes to recover his failing health.
This STAR preacher held spell-bound for
fifty minutes one of the largest audiences
ever assembled in Salt Lake City, outside
the Mormon church. His sermon was
pure, unctious, and thrilling. He spoke,
sine manuscript, in an easy, but profoundly
studied manner. His hearers will never
forget his flights of oratory or the vivid
ness of his descriptions. Among the hear
ers I noticed ex-Chief Justice Mexican,
several members of the Bar, Rev Kirby,
Rector st. Marx church, Salt Lake City,
and others.
On Monday morning l started for Evan
ston, w. T., where spent the week form
ing several agreeable acquaintance. Ev-
anston is just now enjoying the excitement
consequent on the discovery of a rich
mine Of coal. as you will see by the Evan
ston Age, copy of which l send you.
Here l was joined by Mrs S. and fami-
", just from Ohio when we returned to-
gcther as far as this city, where We will
remain week or ten days before going to
Salt Lake Ciy Having served as Pastor
Of our church here, We find many old &c
quaintances, and will have but little time
for anything else but visiting.
This place is growing very rapidly. As
good an investment rs can be made any
where can be made here in the purchase
Of real estate One Of our party, having
an eve to business, has already purchased,
apd there are very many fine bargains yet
pen.
The temporary depression in money cir
cles increases the opportunities for man
Of ordinary means. Several fine residen-
ces and business houses have gone up dur
ing the year. The Masons and Odd Eel
lows each have fourishing Lodges here,
and other marks Of growth are manifest.

railroad between the present state Of this

a Practical Father.

Boating is no doubt a good thing
when judiciously INDUCED in, but an
old gentleman residing on Congress
street, whose son was member of one
of the winning crews at the Toledo res
gatta, has rather conservative notions
concerning the muscular art. On Sun
day the following dialogue occurred
between the father and so1:
Father-"My boy, how much did
you weigh when you began to train
for this regatta ?'
Son-"One hundred and sixty
pounds
Father-"And you pulled at AS
pounds didn't you >"
Son-"Yes, worked down to that
beautifully"
Father-"And how much is that
badge worth that you won down
there ?n
Son-"Don't know exactly, but |
think L heard some of the fellers say
they cost S27'apiece."
Father-"Um; S27. Now then il
you'll work Oft the same amount OF
| flesh next season by saving wood I'll
give you badge worth just four times
as much as that one, and an order on
