Death Of Brigham Young.

| I Brigham Young, the president OF the
Mormons in Utah, died at Salt Lake
City Wednesday afternoon at O'Clock.
He was born in Whitingham, in this
state, June /, 1901. His father was q
farmer, and receiving but meagre edu-
cation, he learned the trade of painter
and glazier. At first Baptist, he Is
said to have preached occasionally, but
in 1882 he Joined the Mormons at Kirk
land, Ohio, and being ordained elder he
became one of the twelve disciples. AT
the death of Joe Smith, In Jane, 1874,
he was one of the four aspirants 10
the presidency, and was unanimously
chosen TO that Office by the apostles.
After the charter of Nauvoo had been
revoked and the city bombarded, in
1916, Brigham led his followers to the
Great Salt Lake valley and founded Salt
Lake City in 1s47, where he remained
till the time of his death, defying the
laws of the country and those of COM
mon decency. He leaves dozen OF
more widows, and orphans innumera-
BILE, but the last census ofhis family not
being before us, we are unable to give

AS to the Bread Loaf Inn, we have
not interviewed Mr.. Battcll, but we
are assured by one who is perfectly
posted that this hotel is unusually well
patronized this season, full to its capac-
ity for August, with the largest engage
ment for September it has ever had.
AS to the Addison House, the whole
statement is base fabrication from
beginning to end. We have interview
ed guests and boarders who are So
journing there, and they without sin.
gle exception say the house is greatly
improved, better kept than they have
ever known it, and certainly greatly
improved in the table and all other re.
spects from the last two years, and the
patronage has greatly improved from
last year; and we happen to know that
the house has never been in as good or
der, the table as good, and the patron
age as large for number fyears as il
is this season. 1t is, perhaps, signifi
cant coincidence that the same paper
contains the announcement that "Mr
Fred n. Scofield, of the Windsor, has
returned to town after tour of the
watering places in the northern part OF
this state, Vermont and New Hamp
SHIRE" and also great puff for the Otter
Creek House and scenery at Pittsford
and Col. S. +. Scofeld who keeps it
and we will say, Mr.. Fred N. Scofelt
is son of Mr.. Clark N. Scofield, the
lessee of the Addison House for two
years previous to this season.

The new discovered satellites of Mars
are remarkable as the smallest heavenly
bodies known, and also for their short
periods of revolution. Professor New
comb, of the Washington Observatory,
says that the diameter of the outer one
cannot much exceed ten miles, and may
be less. The diameter of the inner satei-
lite is probably smaller than the other.
The distance Of the inner satellite from
the planet is less than 4, 900 miles, which
is less than one-sixtieth of that of the
moon from ours. The outer satellite
revolves around Mars in thirty hours
and fourteen minutes, the inner one in
seven hours and thirty-eight minutes.
These satellites have not been discover
ed before, because Mars has not been
SO favorably situated for observation
since lS45, when these great twenty-six
inch telescopes were hardly known.
A favorable period, but less SO than the
present, occurred In 1862, aud another
IN 1875, but attention was probably not
then specially directed 10 this planet.
Mars is still approaching the earth, and
the satellites will be visible for about
two months yet, so that ample Oppor.
tunity will be given for astronomers To
ieaYa all that can be known of them
These new friends will not be in sight
again until 1879, and after that will be
totally Invisible for ten years, unless
more powerful telescopes than any
now in use can he provided.
