TIE FINAL REsULT.--At the time we
went 10 press last week the latest intelli-
gence pointed unmistak eably to the cleo
ton of Hayes and Wheeler; the only
fear being that part Of the Democrats
in the House would delay the count be-
yond the time fixed by law for the inaug-
uration Of the new president. This fear
had its foundation in the fact that n part
of the Democrats were disposed to act in
bad faith, by not accepting the decision
OF the tribunal their own party had had
the gr atest band in creating. But, it
& ives us pleasure TO say that the greater
p,rtion ol the Democrats stood manfully
by their bargain, and promptly checked
ihe attempts of their less honorable asso-
c.4tes TO create delays. Noticeably was
tni. the case with the Southern Demo
Gratis, from whom if there was resistance
at all, it would seem most probable it
would come.
The progress of the count showed every
ulbDOSlllOIl VI SUCK NJ tcCIUlCdllllcs, anu
the majority in the House showed them
selves willing and ready at all times to
diSfranchise the people of State if by
shat means a vote could be thrown out
nnd tho election thereby thrown into the
House. If this could be done, it would OF
course secure the election Of Tilden.-
These tcchnicalities were brought up
several times in addition to the four States
referred to The Commission. Michigan,
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Yer
mont each had an electoral vote to which
objection was made on the Democratic
tide, the most desperate fight being made
10 count out one vote Of Vermont. But
the plans of the flibustcrs failed and on
TIN r day the last State was counted with
the result Hayes, l65 Tilden, 184. The
decision was announced by Vice Presi-
dent Fcr!el and the inauguration cere-
monies proceeded with on Monday, the
oath of office being administered by Chief
Justice Waite.

The Rosshire Journal says: A would
be bride and bridegroom, the former a
farm laborer, and the latter belonging
to Roselis, after having succeeded in
getting the "banns formally proclaim
ed in their respective parishes, applied
to the Established church minister in
Cromarty to unite them in happy we'd
lock. The reverend gentleman, how.
ever, declined, for reasons assigned.
They proceeded to the registrar, strong
in the belief that he had some power
wherewith to make them one, but he
was from home. The remainder of the
day till ten p. NJ. was spent in parading
the streets, accompanied by two brides
maids, and in appealing to the sympa
thies of crowds of boys, who enjoyed thu
fun immensely. On Sunday another at
tempt was made at wedlock, the couple
this time taking matters entirely int
their own hands. Proceeding to til,
Established church, they both stood up
and, in the presence of the minister ant
congregation, joined hands, the deter
mined husband loudly saying: $40
hannah, take you to be my wife," tn
bride making a similar declaration in al
equally audible tone of voice.

The recent suicide of DR.. l.. M. Stein,
of New York, at Niagara Falls, is thus
described: He hired hack and was
driven to the new suspension bridge,
where he discharged the coachman. He
then asked little boot-black to cross
the bridge with him. When they were
approaching the Canadian bank, he drew
out large roll of biils from his pocket,
handed the boy dollar for his services,
and saying that he desired to enjoy the
deep water, started back for the center
of the bridge. Reaching this point he
stopped, ahrey down his shawl and hand
bag, seized the boy, saying: "You have
got to come, too" and attempted to scale
the railing of the bridge, and jump with
the little fellow into the river below.
The boy seized hold of cable and
screamed wildly for assistance. The de-
mented doctor managed to climb over
the railing, but the boy succeeded in
tearing himself loose and started for
assistance. The boy says that the doc
tor stopped, and, taking hold of the stay
cable of the bridge, attempted some
gymnastic performances, but as he was
old and infirm, he hung by his hands for
a second, and then dropped 100 feet be-
low. The suicide struck the surface Of
the river feet first, disappeared for O
second, rose to the surface, and was seer
floating for long distance down the
river before finally disappearing from

American Girls,

This is what the An1eric0n RegHter
tells the Parisians, perverted by the
libels of "L'Oncle Sam - "Your true
American girl is very charming
being. Like all creatures reared in
freedom, she possesses an untaught
grace and vigor of mind as we'll as of
body. She is no helpless puppet, as is
her European prototype, pulled about
by hidden wires, and kept perpetually
in a box. Bred amid the healthful at
mosphere of social system of excep-
tional purity, respected, honored and
guarded from babyhood by the chivalrous
natures that surround her, she learns to
think and act Alright. 1t is well-nigh
impossible to over-estimate her influence
on our social system. Reared at her
side, the American youth grows up with
an instructive reverence for, and desire
to protect, helpless innocence and maid
emily purity. The salons to which she
lends the charm of her winning gracea
and youthful sweetness are more potent
for good than were the salons of Re
camier or De Stael. The love that she
inspires is a young mans best shield
against temptation. She does not her,
self understand, the smiling maiden
what good she has done and is doing
every day. Yet her white image hal
waved back many youth from the
pathway of temptation, her clear eye
lent light to the comprehension of bette
things"

A Substitute for Gas.

There have been experiments AIDE in
Paris recently which have proved SO
successful, that owners of gas stock may
become alarmed, for it is claimed that a
substitute for gas has been procured,
which, under the most unfavorable con-
ditions, will be three times cheaper than
gas. 1t is adapted to indoors and out
doors, inexplosible, odorless, and is
without flicker. 1t preserves the original
color of the articles which it Eliminates.
1t is called the Candle Jablochkoff, "
and in no way resembles any of the cleo
trical lights previously intoduced
though we judge by the fact that the
cost of this new light is said 20 be re-
duced to one-fifteentb of the cost of gas
in manufactures having hydraulic pow.
er, that compressed air is an important
factor in the production of thenew light
The candle used lasts an hour or two
and is replaced by an automatic arrange
ment, thus securing light for any length

BRIGHAM YOUNG's WILL.
An Estate Worth sa,OOO.OOo Diviaep

An Estate Worth sa,OOO.OOO Disiaep |
Among Seventeen Wives ana rory
four Children.
A special dispatch from Salt Lake
CITY says: Brigham Young'a Will was
read in the presence of all his wives and
children and a few friends. Brigham
Young, Jr., Geo. o. Cannon and Albert
Darlington are named as hi executors
The estate is largely real estate, and is
probably worth $1,000, 900. The will
was made four years ago, and his young
est ehild, born of Mary NanCott, was
then three years old. Brigham Young
was the father of fifty-six children, and
left seventeen wives, sixteen sons ana
twenty-eight daughters. The will aims
to make an equitable division oil the
property between all the wives and ehu-
dren, with no preference to any. Most
all of them have already had something
decided to them. On this valuation
WAS set. and it h to BE charged to the
recipients as part of their share, though
not necessarily at the valuation he put
ON it. That is to be equitably adjusted
when the estate is divided, upon the
Youngest child coming of age. Mean
while the income is to go to the various
mothers according to the number OF their
children, and they can withhold it If the
children behave badly. All are pro-
yided. for as far as their present needs
are concerned. His first wife and
Amelia are given 9, life interest in the
Amelia Palace large, modern, new,
fine house; but he is known to have
changed his mind about that, chiefly be-
cause they declined it for reasons best
known to thems elves, although nothing
in or out of the will has as yet come tC
light showing it, and they are not other
wise provided for except by their share
of the income. Deceased held many
interests in trust for the church and FOL
individuals. His executors are directed
to turn them over properly. The churcl
is forbidden by law to hold more THAI
$50 900 worth of property; and so it wei
largely held by Brigham Young in trust
His friends will not entertain the motion
: that he ever abused that trust Their
is no inventory of the property on TIN
estate, and it is widely scattered. Will
the country prosperous and full o
money, it would be worth twice heabov
! valuation. Recently Brigham YOUNG
, endowed an academy with lands at Prov
and another at Logan-the latter wit
| 1900 acres. He had determined t
: endow one at Salt Lake, but did nc
live long enough to do so. A perso
, at the reading of the will, says, it SCENE
to be satisfactory to all concerned.

Words OF Wisdom.

That man is unfortunate, indeed, who
has nobody to enjoy his happiness.
True zeal will always inculcate mod
Grafton without diminishing conspicu-
GUS intrepidity,
II mankind are unhappy it is of little
Consequence what occasions the Dispute
tude. Real and imaginary evils are
synonymous.
The world is rs a cocoanut; there is
the vulgar outside shell good for beer
cups; and the white delicate kernel, the
real worth, food for the gods.
Never pronounce man to be willful
niggard until You have seen the contents
of his purse. The distribution should
be in accordance with the receipts.
There is more virtue in obscurity than
is commonly supposed; and perhaps
there have been nobler specimens of
magnanimity in low life than even the
page of history can boast.
There are some people who, though
very amiable in the main, and obliging
in their offices to others have yet that
most unhappy propensity of being
gloomy over everything.
Prudery is often the mantle chosen to
conceal triumphant vice. Where In
ward remorse prevails, there will always
be corresponding absurdity in affect,
ing genuine virtue.
1t seems to be the business of life tc
lay by fresh cause for anxiety and dis
content by increasing our estate; where
as we should rather know how to lose ii
all, and yet be contented.
The Just man says: edo not let me
hurt" the good man says: "Let me
bless" The just man says; "Let me
take nothing from my fellow men," the
good man says: "Let me bestow upon
them" The Just man says: I" Let me
be pure; the good man says: "Let me
draw all men into purity" One is equi
table; the other is benevolent. One
seeks his own perfectness; the othel
seeks the welfare of those about him"
There is one species of reasoning o
which we should all beware. It is tina
of specious argument, put forth to de
fend our position, without reference t.
its truth. 1t may be acute and shrewd
it may embarrass and even silence on
opponent, but it will destroy the onl.
purpose for which our reasoning power
were given us, that of discovering anC
establishing truth. The earnest desir
for truth must lie at the foundation o
all the culture of reason, or its main oh
iect will be frustrated.

Gen. L. A. Walkers article in The Internd-
ttonal Recie,o just published, upon the display
Of goods and wares at the Philadelphia Worlds
Fair last year, points out the gratifying fact
that in several prominent mechanical speclalties
the long established supremacy of this country
is easily shown to be unimpaired. In reapers,
locks, sofas and sewing machines America leads
the world, while in scales for commercial use,
Gen. Walker says, that time and recent inven-
ton have not impaired the superiority of
American goods. The great house which was
founded ct st. Johnsbury forty years ago, not
only maintains the positive merit of its produc-
TONS but ships it, goods to every quarter OF
