n ELIZA YOUNG.

Ann Eliza Young, a name we'll
known to the public, and whose re.
cent residence has been at LockpOrt,
having been absent from that city for
some time, soliciting materials for q
new lecture on Mormonism, on her
return was interviewed by a reporter
of the Lockport Journal. Being ask
ed if she had prepared a ley lecture
for the coming season, she answered:
eyes; my trip east was solely in that
interest. / was in Boston for two
weeks, and have accomplished what /
set out for. / have had made six
crayon portraits, by the celebrated
artist Engels. Their size is 25x3O
inches, and they represent six of the
prominent Mormons in Utah, digni-
taries of the Church, including the
late Brigham and his favorite wife.
The portraits are life-size, and any
person who evcr saw the originals can
tell at a glance who the pictures were
intended for. l propose to have them
elegantly framed, and so arranged by
a special apparatus, made on purpose,
that they can be exhibited from any
stage, pulpit or rostrum, and car be
plainly seen from any part of the au-
4 ditorium." Mrs. Young stated that
she had received a veryiattering Offer
to go tc England and make a tour Of
the provinces, but about the same time
she received another offer much more
favorable from an American agency,
which she has accepted, and will de-
fer her European trip until some other
time. Last season she lectured 18C
times, and then, on account of a bron.
chial difficulty, she was obliged tc
leave the platform. The new lecture
is to be entitled, "In and Out o.

That every mar who owns a horse

That nobody ever thinks of sitting

That hunting parties from the city

chickens than they bring in?
That SO many more watch-chains
are worn than watches?
That no matter what direction q

mates in the end of his forefinger? :
That no man thinks any other man

That every living man who smokes
