TO tho Gentle
Candidate,

Salt Lake, Utah, Jan. l0.--The friends Of
Mr.. Cannon last evening appealed to Secre-
tary Thompson for certified statement of
the court, and Mr.. Cannon. will contest. The
hOrmons are very indignant, The Evening
News says; "Governor Murray can no longer
command the respect of honest men, and
his conduct is dastarily asd contsmpt
lble and unworthy of any official With tho
least claim to tho title of gentleman" The
Gcntiles feel as though they had at last cot
ten Mormon bull by the horns instead Of
by the tail,and they expect the administration
and country to help them keep their hold.
The TribuAe of to-day says: "Goysrner
Mnrrsy has refused his certificate of election
to George d. Cannon and. gives it to A. G.
Campbell. He has not Questioned, he has
simply taken cognizance of two facts which
the contest brought out and which are,
Fics., That George ID. Cannon being foreign
born and never naturalizad is not a citizsn ;
and oecoad,. That il is not possible for CAN

In the Guards.

Chambers Journal.
For ages it has been customary for
certain families with aristocratic as
pirations, to bring up one or two OF
their sons to go into the army as OH
GERS, and who would feel themselves
degraded by having to earn their liv-
ing by any species of commercial en-
terprise. To get son into the Guards
is the height of their ambition, no mat
ter that he has not the brains to acquit
himself properly, and may have to re-
tire in by no means creditable man.
ner. The man who can say, or write
after his name slate of the
Guards" occupies a position quite as
enviable as the person who has been a
member of parliament, and is unseated
after three months for bribery, but
who all the rest of his life can pride
fully say, "When | was in the House."
Small puffs of this kind, go for much
in our social economy. On whatever
grounds, the getting Of sons into the
army becomes a sort of superstition,
calculated to enlarge the sphere Of
Jingoism. It's hard to say so, but to
all appearance, the army is in some de-
gree an institute for the cultivation Of
idleness and contempt for honest in
dustry. We are fortified in the re-
mark from what has lately been said
by Sir Garnet Wolseley, on the subject
of military service. "Hitherto our
army has been pleasant home for idle
men-generation after generation Of
officers have been attracted to It by tho
ease and pleasure 1t secured to the

Wooden Pipes.


Wooden pipes are now being used in
Switzerland to convey the waters of a
thermal mineral spring between Pfelfer
and Ragaz. They are constructed of
fir-wood made into slaves, and bound
together by means of iron hoops. After
being carefully tarred both inside and
out, they are perfectly water-tight, and
posses many advantages over metal
piping. They are, of course, much
lighter, and are insensible to changes
of temperature, while their cost is only
about eight shilings per meter. 1t is in
teresting to note that the New Rriver
water was first brought to London by
means of wooden pipes formed by bor-
ing out tree-trunks, and joining them
length by length. Such pipes have
been extensively used in America, and
they are, under the best conditions,
estimated to last thirty years.

HEWoRLD FROM THE SIDEWALK

Did you ever stand in the crowded street,
In the glare of the city lamp,
And list to the tread of million feet
In their quantity musical tramp?
As the surging crowd 90 to and fro
'Tis a pleasant sight, ween,
To mark the figures that come and go
In the eyer-changing scene.
Here the publican walks with the sinner
proud,
And the priest in his gloomy cowl,
And Dives walks in the motley crowd
With Lazarus, cheek by jowl,
And the daughter of toll, with her fresh
young heart
As pure as her spOtless fame,
Keeps step with the woman who makes
mart
In the haunts of sin and shame.
How lightly trips the country lass
In the midst of the citys ills!
As freshly pure as the daisied grass
That grows on her native hills.
And the beggar, too, with his hungry eye
And his lean, wan face and crutch,
Gives blessing the same to the passcr-by:
And he gives him little or much.
When time has beaten the worlds tattoo,
And his dusky armOr dight
Is treading with echOlesS footsteps through
The gloom of the silent night.
How many of these shall be daintily fed
And shall sing to slumbers sweet,
While many will 60 to slcepless bed
And never a crumb to eat.
All me when the hours 60 joyfuIly by,
How little we stop to heed
Our brothers and sisters dcspairing cry
In their woe and bitter need!
Yet such world as the angels sought
This world of ours we'd call,
If the brotherly love that the Fat er
taught
Was felt by each for all.
Yet a few short years and this motley
thrOng
viii all have passed away,
And the rich and the poor and the old and
the young
Will be undistinguished clay,
And lips that laugh and lips that moan
Shall in silence alike be sealed
And some will lie under stately stone
And some in the pOtter's field.
But the sun will be shining just as bright,
And so will the silver moon,
And Just such crowd will be here tonight
And Just such crowd at noon.
And men will be wicked and women Will
sin
As ever since Adams fall,
With the same old world to labor in,
And the same God over all.

Leisure Hour
Many years ago there was a man in
IIenle 1Ieathlield) parish, the next
parish to our own, on the west, who,
having small annuity, lived upon it in
idleness. Low as his credit was, he
had managed to get considerably in
debt and the visits of his creditors in
the hope of getting their money were
frequent and pressing, The man was
not an early riser, and persons who
specially wanted to find him at home
would make sure by calling before he
was up. One morning neighbor
knocked at the door, and insisted on
the mans wife rousing her husband
and compelling him to settle his ac-
count.
She accordingly went up stairs, woke
her husband, and failing, as usual, to
get any money, said, rather sharpcly,

"Oh, | can sleep very we'll" he said,

A Relic of Chickamauga.

CinClnr1 tulnlilttCA.
In Il window on Fourth street there
is battle relic of more than ordinary
interest. 1t tells II graphic story of the
bloody field of Chickamauga, and speaks
eloQucntly of Col. William G. Jones,
who lost his life in that great struggle.
Behind the line Of battle of the 36th
Ohio, which he commanded, stood two
slender cedar trees. The regiment lay
down in front of the hurricane of fire
which swept in from the enemy. Col.
Jones stood behind them, and went
from point TO point speaking words of
encouragement and command to his
men. One of the trees, mere sapling,
was Topped off four times by the can
non shot of the rebels as they discovered
that their range was too high, and low
cred their line of fire. The other, some
nine inches in thickness, was literally
filed with bullets, as well as shattered
with shell. Under that storm of fire it
was n wonder that anyone lived to tell
the tale, not that Col. Jones fell, gal
lantly doing his duty to his men and
his country. Two months later Capt.
j. NJ. Turner, of the Seth who served
in the fight, returned with his compa-
ny to the spot TO bury the union dead.
The sad duty performed, he brought
away piece of the smaller tree and
section of the other, about two feet six
inches in length. There can be counted
in it thirty-two bullets, and, besides,
marks of shell-wOrk. Capt. Turner
has had it handsomely mounted on a
pedestal of cannon balls, and surmomt-
ed with the acorn emblem of the
army of the Cumberland. Upon this
in turn will be placed fine bust of
George II. Thomas.
