proud OF the noble spirit manifested
among some of the sisters of the

spirit of Grangerism. I would to
God there was more of this spirit
among the brotherhood, and we

public address to numbers of far

of cooperation on the Roehdale

casts being drought to a sense of
their duty and be made to throw
their weight on our side.

Editor Patron: At a regular meet
ing of Apple Grove Grange, held
March 25, 1882, on motion of Bro.
W. D. Russell, the following reso-
lutiOns were adopted:
ReSolued 1st, That we, as a
Grange and representing public
sentiment in this community, detest
the movement of certain men be-
longing to the so-called "latter day
saints" in their efforts to obtain
permission to preach in the
churches of this community, and
we hold in utter adherence the
baneful doctrines and practices that
they propose to teach and inst;ll
into the minds of our sons and
daughters, and to disseminate in
the country.
RESOLVED I'd, That we hold the
doctrines of these people to be ut
terly abhorent to the teachings of
Christ, and to every true principle
OF the Christian religion, virtue,
good morals, or good government,
and as subversive of the whole
Fabric of good society and true
civilization.
Resolued Sd, That the doctrines
and teachings of this people, espe-
cially upon the subject of plural
marriage, is contrary TO the com
mon sense of every truly civilized
country, and opposed to the laws
of our State and the United States,
and therefore we are not willing
that they should remain and teach
among us.
Resolued 4th, That committee
be appointed who will present to
said parties copy of these resolu-
tons and respectfully request these
Mormon Elders, who are intruding
themselves and their vicious and
devilish doctrines upon this COM
munity, to desist from so doing;
and further to leave this community
immediately, never to return.
RESOLVED 5th, That Bros. A. M.
Nabors, P. P. McAnalley and A.
r. Wilson be directed to meet the
said Mormon Elders and deliver in
person copy of these resolutions
at the earliest moment possible.
ResoLred 9th, That the Secretary
of this Grange be directed to furnish
copy of the above resolutions to
each of our county papers and THE

LATE NEWS ITEMS.

A TERRIFIC explosion of fire-damp
occurred in the Laurel Run Slope, colliery
belonging to the Delaware & Hudson Canal
Company, near Wilkesbarre, Pa, on the
18th. VIM. Ashford, JAS. Williams and
VIM. Scoville were at work in a distant
chamber when the explosion occurred. The
ground in the neighborhood was shaken as
by an earthquake, and from the numerous
cabins of the miners in the vicinity men,
women, and children rushed forth in nerv-
Gus fright As quickly as possible work
ing force was mustered and the first detach-
ment proceeded 10 the rescue. In short
time they hurried back with the terrible in
formation that the timbers about the cham
bers were on fire. At once buckets were
procured and line of miners formed down
the slope to the burning beams; but the
flames drove them back, and it was only
when hope had been abandoned that the
imprisoned men were brought to the sur
face.
AT meeting of the committees rep
reseniiug the various associations, in New
Orleans, March %, it was resolved TO aban

There is perhaps no other word
on earth that sounds so unsteady
sweet as the word home; the old
home, where all the joys and sor-
rows of childhood center; and in
old age it is sacred spot of MEM
DRY never to be forgotten. Back
into the past we wander days of
mingled JOY and pain. One may
roam the wide world over, and be-
come weary of foreign sights and
scenes, but the eyes brighten and
the pulse quickens when the mind
flies back on the wings of the wind
to the dear old home that was peo-
Piled with friends. Recollections of
home, and the dear ones that have
long since journeyed through the
shadowy land, has an influence on
the weary, tempest tossed ones left
alone on the dreary strand of life;
it is the one green oasis in the lives
of many, and often the hallowed
memory of mother and home asso-
Citations charms the weary and re-
strains the tempted. We can re-
turn to it again and again, for it is
Il grand reality. We may De ever
seeking and never finding, but the
glorified memory Of the home of
our youth stands out bright and
clear through all time, and when
the sun of life is passing down the
western hill of time, how often do
we GO back and hoard the thoughts
an words OF our dead loved ones?
When the Christian soldier passes
the portals OF time to eternity, the
pale lips whisper back home at
last, home at last, bearing psalms
of victory in their hands, and their
crowns with diamonds set,
Where the angels round them throng,
There they welcome them at home.
