The Newspaper of 1841.

We have received from some friend copy
of the Boston Daily Mail for Tuesday, August
10, 1871. The news, such as it was, the reader
OF that day found on the fourth page, and the
manner in which it was obtained may be gath
cred from the following notice 1--WE received
our package of Southern papers this morning
by Harden's Express at o'clock The news
itself was little old, consisting Of the pro-
ceedipgs of the extra session of Congress for
Friday, August 9th The bill incorporating
tho subscribers to the Fiscal Bank of the
United States passed the House that day by
majority of thirty votes, and "when the re-
suit of the final vote was announced there was
general and spontaneous burst of applause
from the galleries" The Senate was, how
ever, not getting along as well, ard Mr.. Clay.
at the close of the session of the previous day.
had even been heard to observe that ''the Sem
ate had exhibited itself to little advantage this
day."
From another paragraph we are rather
pleased than otherwise to learn that one of the
officials Of bank in Mississippi had been ac-
cused of assisting in robbing the bank, as we
are willing that believers in modern wicked
ness should see that the good old times of
forty years ago were not so much better after
all. sit is believed the affair will go through
an investigation" is the way in which that
subject is dismissed.
The editor was honest in his head lines if in
nothing else. The editorial scribbling, part
ly original, but mostly stolen," certainly ought
to have deceived no one
One paragraph sounds strangely to us of to-
day. "a negro named Lyttleton has been sem
fenced at New Orleans to receive seventy five
lashes upon his bare back and to wear an iron
collar with three prongs around his neck for
three months for striking white man."
But the article of the most interest to us at
the present day was that which described the
doings of the Mormons, who were then in
Iowa. The prophet" was then pushing on
the work Of his temple at Nanvoo, and was as
Stunning to himself powers that led to the rup-
ture that sent him to his death and his people,
under the lead of Brigham Young, on their
way TO found an empire in the desert.

Himself and several others were en-
gagged in making up trains, and the en-.
CINE, on which he was standing, was
being backed up to some freight cars
on the main track near the Redwood
junction. "A flat car preceded the box
cars, of which, however, the engineer
was not aware until within few feet
of the same. In order to avert COLI.
sion the engine was quickly reversed,
the shock throwing Mr.. Byrns off and
against the fiat car with terrific veloci.

horribly mangling one side Of his head
and face and killing him instantly.
Mr.. Byrns was about % years of age
and his parents live near Oregon, Wis.
He had been engaged as wiper up to

day held an inquest over the body.
No blame attaches to the engineer or
any of the other train men.
