Horrible Crime Committed by Priest

On the 22nd ult, a horrible crime was
committed in Caprm by a clergyman.

where the pupils usually assemble. One
day when in the absence of the clergy
man the boys were tumbling about in
the room, one of them happened to knock
the cage over, when the little door being
opened by the iall the bird escaped and
flew away. The clergyman returning,
as usual looked around for his yellow
singer, and when he observed that it had
flown the criminal was pointed out to
him in the person of twelve year old
son of a butcher. Perfectly composed tC
all appearance he made the boy kneel
down, when he told him that he could
not GO to dinny. Well, the rest of them

The Mormon Massacre.

The san Francisco Call publishes an
interesting interview with Captain John
Morse concerning the Mountain Mead.
ows massacre. The gentleman referred
TO has figured during many years of al
eyentful life as trontiersman, prospec-
tor trapper and trader and was in Utah
prior to the Norman settlement and for
MANY years after. At the time OF the
massacre he was living with a band of
Indians not more than thirty miles from
Mountain Meadows. Two days after
the tragedy he vi,ited the scene and saw
the manglcd bodies of the slaughtered
emigrants lying on the ground, as they
had been lett by the destroying horde Of
Mormon fanatics and their allies, the In
dians. Captain Morse was intimately
acouainted with Lee, and that disputed
saint in conversation occurring years
before the trial admitted to Morse his
completely in the atrocities; but in his
confession, so consisted and in his off
hand declarations, he threw the respoD-
sibility of the butchery upon the leaders
of the Mormon church, and directly i'm
plicated as accessory before and after the
TACT Brigham Young. Morse disputes
Lees statement that there were five
hundred Indians present, claiming that
there were not more than three hundred
in that whole section of coun'
trv. The butchery was planned by The
Mormons and almost entirely done by
them, the Indians not killing over hal
a dozen. He says that plunder was the
chief incentive to the massacre. At that
time tho Mormons were excessively
poor, having no money and scarcely any
thing al:e. They would trade thCi
produce with Indians, even for ole
clothes. The train was very rich one
and excited their cupidity. Morse wa
yely much with Lee during his stay il
southern Utah, and the latter unhosomeC
himself freely. The subject of the mas
sacre seemed to so dwell on his mint
that he constantly reverted to it. Con
cerning the implication of Brigham
Young with the massacre, Morse relate

A Novel Idea i'll House Decoration
and Protection from Fire.

Last evening, about four O'Clock, the
eyes of hundreds of persons on the streets
were directed toward the top of the
spire of the new Catholic church, where
was seen a fountain spouting numerous
Jets high in the air.
A large iron pipe is carried up through
the steeple and up the large cross sur
mounting the same. The pipe then
takes the form of the cross, behind which
it is hidden, and from holes perforated at
proper intervals the jets are sent up.
From the top of the cross and from the
end Of each arm large streams ascend to
the height ofabout twenty-five feet, and
between these are thrown up great
number of smaller Jets.
The height of the topof the cross from
the ground is one hundred and seventy
feet, and last evening, the air being
calm, the numerous jets spread out in
shape of fan. The rays of the declin.
ing sun tell upon the jets and spray at
Just the proper angle to light up and
bring out the whole in beautiful rose.

the cross like glory.

APapcr.Making Spider.

Spiders have been noted so long as
spinners OF the finest of silk, that it
strikes one little oddly to think of one
as paper-makcr. But hear this true
story that has Just been told to me;
In the heart Of the African continent,
where no other paper is manufactured,
the spider paper-maker does her quiet
work. Back and forth, over fiat sur
face about an inch and a half square, on
the inside wall Of a hut, the square is
covered with u pure white paper. I'm
der this she places from forty to fifty
eggs; and then, to fasten the square Of
paper more securely to the wall, she
makes a strip of paper about quarter
of an inch sluare, and with this glucs
the square carefully around the edges.
When all is done, the spider-which i:
quite large onC-places herself on the
center of the outside of the little flat
bag so carefully made, and begins Z
watch, which is to last for three weeks
without intermission. Apparently the
young spiders would have many danger
to fear. did not their anxious MANN,

Secret of the Growth of the Mormons.

"Do you believe that the creed of the
Mormons is based upon what appears to
them to be true religious principles ?"
Perhaps ! have said too much al
ready, | should dislike very much to
get into a controversy with them but !
will say that it is my private opinion
that the majority Of men who 60 into
Mormonism do it for the purpose of
gratifying their passions"
Among the gentiles even one wife is
often regarded as an expensive luxury.
How is it that among the Mormons a
poor man is able to support several
wives ?"

who joins the Mormons generally makes
money by it. Let us suppose case.

very good. The soil is rich aud deep,
and the rainfall has increased | suppose,

! fifteen years. Still the land has 10 be

man goes to work and puts up little
hut made of slabs or logs, raises crops,
and pulls through the first year, lie

work for him at, say -, OF 81 q week.
He sees that he can Just as well marry
the girl and save the wages he would
otherwise have to pay. He gets a baby
as soon as he can. and the next year he
puts this new wife of his, with her baby,
upon another one hundred and sixty
acres of land. Perhaps he has been
smart enough TO build his hut just on
the boundary Of the farms, 50 that by
putting up an extension the new family
can live in the same house and yet or
another farm. Then, as he extends hl'
dominion, he will marry more wives, anC
with each of his additional children he
puts up another one hundred and sixty
acres. Now, you know, after the settle

TIIE LNND OF DREAMS.

A mighty realm is the land Of dreams,
with sleeps that hang in the twilight sky,
Nnd watating oceans and trailing streams,
That gleam here the duskY valleys lie.
But over its shadowy border flow
Sweet rays from the world Of endless morn,
Nnd the nearer mountains catch the glow,
And flowers in the nearer fields are boru.
The souls oi the happy dead repair
From their bowers Of light to that border land
And walk in the fainter glory there,
With the souls Of the living, hand in hand.
One calm, sweet smile, in that shadowy sphere
From eyes that open on earth no more
Onr warning word from voice once dear,
How they rise in the memory Ger and Ger.
Far of from those hills that shine with day
And fields that bloom in the heavenly gales
The Land OF Dreams goes stretching away
To DINNER mountains and darker wales.
There lie the chambers Of guilty delight,
There walk the specters Of guilty fear
And soft, low voices hat float through the nigh
Are whispering Sin in the hopeless ear
Dear maid, in thy girlhood's opening flowers,
Scarce weaned from the love Of childish play
The tears on whose cheek are but the showers
That fre,hen the early bloom Of May
Thine eyes are closed, and over thy brow
Pass thoughtful shadows aud joyous CLEANS
And know by thy moving np1, that nov
Thy spirit strays III the Land OF Dreams
light-heartcd maiden, oh heed thy lectl
ON keep where that beam Of paradise falls;
And only wonder whore thou mayst meet
The blessed ones FROM It's shining walls,
So shalt thou come from the Land OI Dreams
With love and peace to this world OF STRIFE;
And tine light which over the border streams
Shall lie on the path of thy daily ic,
