THE MOTION TO QUASH THOSE wRITs.
New York, July 2s.-Judge Haight in
the supreme court to.day granted the mo-
the Erie and New York Central rail-
ways to compel them to carry
out the terms of their franchise. These
were test cases brought to hasten the end
of the long pending trouble between the
railways and the striking EN-
ployes. Judge Haight in his
opinion granting the motion OF
counsel for railways to quash the writs
said the grievance was private, that the
people had no interest involved, and the
proper mode of procedure was by civil suit.

PERSECUTION OF THE GENTILEs.

OGDEN, UTAH, July 26.--The wholesale,
persecution of G entities has been inaugurated
and arrangements have been made for test .
ing the constitutlonality of the Edmund's
act in the supreme court of the United
States. If the decision should be adverse
the Mormons have decided not to submit at
any cost. The polygamsts, from President
John Tyler down TO the apostles, bishops
end elders, in the most extreme part
of their domain, have separated from their
surplus wives, and are living openly with
only one wife. The polygamists have been
removed from all PRINCIPAL offices and the
monagamists, as strong III faith as those
deposed, have been sacred. Every effort
will be made to beat the government on all
sections of the Edmund's act.

POISONED By A LEIGH,

A very singular case Of death from
poison communicated by a leech occurred
at Berne, Switzerland, under circum'
stances which the medical gentlemen
there are unable to explain. An indi.
vidual residing in the town had been
suffering from sharp attacks of tooth.
ache; to alleviate the pain his dentist
recommended him to apply a leech to
to his swollen gums. The remedy ap-
peared to be simple, and the patient on
his way home bought a leech at the
chemists shop, which he applied, as
directed, at once. Two hours later he
telt himself unwell, and remarked that
his lips were somewhat swollen-the
cheek, neck and chest becoming equally
SO toward night. He neglected to seek
medical assistance until the following
morning, and this delay proved fatal.
When the doctor was at length called
IN, the patients head was much inflamed,
his breathing was labored, delirium en-
sued, and in twenty-four hours he ex-
PRED. The post-mortem examination
made by experienced doctors revealed
the fact that the cause of death was
blood-poisoning, which was traced to
the moment when the leech was applied
to the gums. 1t was evident that the
bloodsucker had communicated poison
which had rapidly spread through the
whole system ; but a point which re-
mains to be cleared up is how the leech,
which had been several days at the
chemists when the deceased purchased
it, could have become medium for
transmitting this virulent pooisn.

MATCHMAKING IN AMERICA.

The watch trade, says the London
Builder, is another marvel Of rapid de-
velopment, dating back for few years
only since its commencement. It was
in 1850 when two Boston artisans, Allan
Denison and Edward Howard by name,
first opened a small workshop for watch
making at Roxbury; but, finding the
place Lot sufficiently quiet for their
wishes, they changed their locality to
Waltham, little town about eleven
miles from Boston, and here they es-
tablished themselves on the banks Of the
Charles river. Although they demon
strated the feasibility of making watches
by machinery, they failed in pecuniary
sense, not having started with sufficient
capital, and the concern then passed
into the hands of Mr.. Robbins, who
founded, in 1858, the now-celebrated
American Watch Company. Considera-
bly, more than million of watches have
issued from this factory from then till
now, and, although they were originally
intended and expected to supply the
home trade only, their cheapness and
excellence have caused - demand for
them in foreign countries, England not
excepted. Over 800 operatives are en-
ployed by this company. working eleven
hours per day Except Saturdays, when
the limit is nine hours, the men earning
daily from rs. Cd. to 11s., and the
women from 3s. to 6s.

THE BEAUTIFUL.

1t is impossible to give any rule as to
what constitutes beauty, though puz-
zled writer, in the desperate attempt to
establish doctrine, declared smooth
ness and roundness to be essentials Of
beauty but plum pudding is smooth
and round, and the Christmas dekcacy,
even when decorated with holly, is
scarcely beautiful. The only practical
definition of beauty that I can imagine
is that it satisfies ones yearnings for
the sight of beauty, and that it should
be universally accepted and admired as
beautiful. And those who are SO fort
innate as to be recognized as beauties arc
entitled, even as the beautiful youths
were at the old Greek games, to be hailed
and salntsd md rewarded for their
beauty-and their beauty alone-by the
applause and consideration Of society.
1t is natural patent Of precedence.

In some parts of New York the time
of one servant is pretty well occupied in
answering the door-bell for peddlers,
beggars and rag-buyers. In vain are
ragmen requested never to call again.
They impudently answer that they are
upon their own business, and they will
ring as frequently as they please. Men
and women with door-mats, busters and
buttons, when told that they need never
again call with their wares, will return
in half an hour to ask the servant
whether the people of the house have
not changed their minds.

A CoLoRADo editor, who has visited
Salt Lake City. says: Mormonism ID
growing, and the wealth of the church
is rapidly increasing. There is money
in It, and money hires brains. Some Of
the wealthy Mormon merchants aposta-
tised because Of an unwilliDgness TO buy
fittings. The women are not inclined to
rebel against polygamy. In addition to
Utah, the Mormons have captured Idaho,
and expect to have a majority Of the
voters of Arizona. They are coming to
Colorado in considerable numbers, and
calculate to secure liberation there by
holding the balance of power between
our two parties. They are industrious
and thrifty, and the corner. stone Of
their church is not ro,ygamy but super
