York to Utah, is made under the di-
rection of some of these missionaries,
who look after the matter Of trans
portation and keep, if possible, mem
bers of the crowd from straying.-
These missionaries are of the shrewd
class, and know how to act the part OF
shepherd over the flock, and at the
same time make the most out OF the
business. They, too, are very accom-
modating, and ready 10 take charge OF
special cargoes of girls. When the
train arrived yesterday that old repro
bate polygamist living down Weber
river had no trouble in finding the re
turning missionary who could point out
to him the l4-year old Swedish girl
who had been imported especially as
an addition to the harem Of this old
grav-haired saint. Going up to the
gin he greeted her in q very business
ike manner, and taking her by the
hand went wandering among the crowd
and around the depot. The girl was
not specially pleased with his appear
ance and preferred not to accept nm
as her fractional husband; but then
her fare had been paid all the way
from Sweden by him, and she had been
shipped on the condition Of being his
upon her arrival, and she felt that she
was bound and must accept the situa-
ton. The old brute, in his attempts
to console her and make the situation
pleasant, put his arm around her waist
This was too much for the young girl,
and in her innocence she broke down
in sobs and tears. The last seen OF her
was in q wagon with motley crowd

Ishe is to-day more of slave than ever
was any of the colored race in the
South, for the breaking Of whose chains
came the long and bloody war OF the
rebellion. Such cases as this, we pre-
sumo, are far from being uncommon,
but the actors in most Of them possess
too much discretion to permit publlc

stock is to be shipped to America, as
was the case in this instance, 1t Is time
that the nation should arise and crush

its disgusting business in the name OF

The Sweetness of Home.

He who has no home has not the
sweetest pleasure of life; be feels not
the thousand endearments that cluster
round that hallowed spot to fill the
void of his aching heart, and while
away his leisure moments in the sweet
te,tof life's joys. If misfortune is your
lot, you will find hearty welcome
from hearts true to your own. The
chosen partner to your toll has a smile
of approbation when others have de-
serted. a hand Of hope when all others
refuse, and a heart to feel your sorrows
az her own. Perhaps a smiling cherub
with prattliug glee and joyous laugh
will drive all sorrow from your care
Worn brow, and inclose it in the wreaths
Of domestic bliss.
The home Of temperate, indus

but the music Of the merry laugh and
the happy voices of childhood cheer

no place there, and with a clear con-
science he lays his weary limbs down
to rest in the bosom of his family, and

Utah Harems.

Yesterday, when the Union Pacific
train arrived, bringing in fifteen car
loads of Mormon emigrants, there was
much hustle, and people were seen run
ming hither and thither in search Of
expected friends. Many scenes of in
terest we're witnessed, where relatives
met and shed tears of JOY together after
a separation of many years. But there
were other meetings less affectionate
and more in the shape of business
One case will illustrate how the old
polygamists enter into the business OF
bartering for the transportation and
purchase Of young girls to become adj
ditions to their harems and enter into
polygamy and life of wretchedness
in the name of religion. Missionaries
are sent by the church to proselyte in
Europe for converts to the shrine OF
Mormonism. When sufficient num-
Der are persuaded to leave the low
walks of their homes and come to
Utah, where they are promised an
earthly paradise, they are gathered to.

Fortunes Lost in Cornwall.

Every tourist in Cornwall is familiar
with the deserted engine-houses and
ruinous chimney-stacks which form so
characteristic a feature of the scenery
of the Western mining districts. They
have their picturesque aspect, but they
are the evidences of widespread ruin.
To thousands of families they have
been, in the phrase applied to an un-
profitable speculation by Carlyle, "the
grave of the last sixpence." They
stand there by scores and by hundreds,
dilapidated, stripped of every morsel
of wood or metal that would sell,
towering over wide wastes of rubbish
heaps, their high-sounding names for
gotten. Millions drawn from the
wealth and the poverty of outside in
vestors have within the past thirty
years been buried in the bowels of the
Cornish hills, or have found their way
into the pockets of willy projectors. II
ia not twenty years since q shrewd
Cornishman made large profits by dis
posing of shares in mine with high
sounding name, near his native village

then, or into how many mine-broking
firms he has developed, probably no
one but himself knows, but more than
one well-pufled mine of the present
mining revival is known 10 have owed
its origin to his energies. 1t may be
quite true that, on a capital of fl,0OO,
Devon Great Consols made in its ear

that South Caradon gave its wealth on
even easier terms that Tresavean paid
100000 dividends in one year. But
let Us look little further into the re-
suits, and we shall discover that the
families that have realized wealth by
mining, and not from the dues they
have received as lords of mining pro-
perry, are few and far between. Often
within the lifetime of the individual,
frequently in the next generation, min
inc has taken what mining gave. The
greatest mining fortune of the last two
or three generations was that which
eventually came into the hands Of the
late William Williams. His eldest son
and heir adhered 10 the traditions OF
his family in supporting mining enter

The Flood Of Gold.

The New York Sun says editorlally :;
Since August, 1879, about S2O0,OOO,-
900 of foreign gold has been imported
to the United States, and our own
mines have produced fully 65,OOO,OO0
more. The addition Of S265,OOO,OOO
to the national wealth is significant OF
our changed financial relations Of the
Eastern and Western sections Of this
country. Two years ago the banks OF
New York city held S20,OOO,0OO IN
yold. and there was in the United
states Treasury, say sl5O,OOO,OOO.-
According to the latest returns, our
banks now hold S65,000,O0O, aud
the treasury s170,000,000. This shows
what has become of the S65,000OO0,
but where is the remaining s2OO,OOO,-
O002
The most plausible answer TO the
question is that the metal has been alb
sorbed by the inhabitants OF the great
West and southwest, who have taken
| it in payment for their wheat, corn,
cotton and other surplus products.
After years Of patient toll and waiting
their farms and plantations have be-
come profitable; they have paid OIL
their debts to Eastern capitalists, and
they have replaced their former stump
tail and trashy currency with gold, u
we'll as with greenbacks and National
Bank notes. For it must be remarked
that while the New York banks have
in two years added $40, 000,0 00 to their
stock Of gold, they have also parted
with S27 100000 Of legal-tender, much
of which has been sent West. Fur
thermore, the currency of the country
has been swelled by the addition OF
S46.000,000 of certificates represent
ing silver dollars, Of which the West
has taken the greater portion. Ihi:
however has little or no effect upon the
= westward flow of gold, and it is still
moving in the same direction.
! 1T looks now as though the United
States, in the same way that Asia useC
to be the sink of silver, will for somt
time to come, at least, be the sink o
gold. 1t also happens that our princi
. pal products are those Of food and raw
materials, which Europe, owing to it
adverse climate, is compelled to bu.
from us, and yet our consumption o
European manufactured goods is no
J large enough to pay them. The differ

letters and one postal card to the delln-

that two years ago he said to one OF
our employees: Tell Beddell not to
