SILENT SOUNDS.

You do not hear il? Unto me
The sweet low 0und comes ceaseiessiy.
AND, EoetInG. floods the earth and sky
Wit tender tone.
You do not hear the restless beat
Upon the floor, of childish feet
Of feet that tread the fiowery street
or Heaven alone.
At morn. at noon, at eve, at night
hear the patter, soft and light.
And catch the gust of wings, snowwhite,
About my door.
And on the silent air 10 borne
The voice that from my world was torn
That .eft me, comfortless, TO mourn,
For eyermore.
Sometimes floats up from out the street
The boyish laughter, bird-like, sweet
turn, forg etfully. to greet
My darling fair;
Soft as the ripple of the stream,
BreeZe-kissed beneath the moons pale beam
How strangely real doth il seem!
And he not there.
All, no; you can not hear his call;
You catch no laugh, nor light football;
Il am his mother-thst is all;
And He who said:
81 viii not leave thee desoiate."
Has, somehow. loosed the bonds OF fate
And left ajar the golden gate
Which hides my dead.

BRIGHAM YOUNG.
His First Marriage and the First Settle
ment of Mormons i'm Ohio.

His First Marriage and the First Settle
ment of Mormons i'm Ohio.
Learning that there were in the Of
flee of the probate Judge of Geaugs
County some interesting facts to be OBJ
tanned in regard to the early life of
Brigham Young. the great Mormon,
your correspondent paid that office a
visit, and by the courtesy of Judge
Smith was enabled TO obtain the fol-
lowing facts, never before published.
Ii will be remembered that the little
town of Kirkland. at that time a part
of Geauga County, was the first gath
ering place" of the Mormons. Brig
ham Young was one of the earliest of
them to come TO Kirkland, and soon
after coming to the place he met and
soon married Miss Mary Ann Angel.
. This was his first and legal marriage.
In the old records of the probate court
may be still seen the original applica-
ton of Brigham for the necessary IL
cense for this marriage and the certiti-
cate of the marriage by Sidney Rig
don, another prominent Mormon. The
copies of the application for license
and the certificate of marriage are a.
follows:
The State OF Ohio, Geauga County, S.:
PERSONALLY appeared Brigham Young and
made application for a marriage license for
himself and Mary Ann Angel, OF the town
ship of Kirkland. in said county, and made
solemn oath that be. the said Brigham
Young. Is Of the age OF twenty-one years,
and the said Mary Ann Angel is of the age OF
eighteen years; that they are both single,
and not nearer OF kin than first cousins: that
ha ar frnr.
their being Joined in marriage
"BRICKHAA YOUNG
Sworn and subscribed this 10th day Of
February. 1884, before me.
"RALPH COwLEs, Dep. Clerk"
BE il remembered. that on the thirty-first
day of March, in the year of our Lord. one
thousand eight hundre and thirty-four,
Brigham Young and Mary Ann Angel, of the
county Of Geauga, were legally joined in
marriage BY competent authority, IN con-
formity TO the provisions OF the statutes of
provided. and a certificate OF the said mar
riage. signed by Sidney Rigdon, a minister
who solemnized the same, mas been fled in
the Office of the clerk OF the court Of COM
mon pleas fo- the said county of Geauga,
this third day Of April. Ammo Domini one
thousand eight hundred and thirty-four;
Attest: ID ID. AIKEN, Clerk"
The signature of Brigham Young to
the application above is a fac-simile of
the original signature on the record.
1t will be noticed as an evidence of
Brigham's illiteracy that he spells his
name Brickham Young, and spells the
last name with a small or lower-case
s.y." How such 8 man could obtain
such a control over the people as he did
can only be explained upon the hypo-
thesis that they were either very igno-
rant or very vicious, and his great per-
sonal magnetism and insight into hu-
man nature and faculty of adapting
himself to the different natures,
showed them he was born leader.
There still live in Kirkland and in
Munson. in this county. nephews of

CONVERSATIONAL ART.
Rare Gift Which Requires inspirations @
Well as knowledge.

Well as knowledge.
Between talking and conversation. in
its finest possibilities. there is as wide a
difference a between walking and
dancing. Conversation is one of the
fne arts, and We venture to assert that
it is q rarer one than music. There can
be found dozen people who can rem
der sonata acceptably, who can pro-
duce an average drawing or painting
or write a readable novel, to one who
has the gift, the grace, the supreme
charm OF conversation. 1t is the art of
arts. Ii necessarily includes all others,
not in matters of technical knowledge,
but in their essential elements. Only
true culture-that culture which is an
achievement, not an external acquire
ment-can produce conversation. Talk
is cheap and largely mechanical, and
Is of no importance save as one of the
conveniences of existence; but CONVEX
sation is a gift of the gods. A woman
is by no means necessarily cultivated
because she happens TO have studied
this, or known that, or because she has
travelled, or lived in a certain grade of
society. True these things conduce 10
culture, but they do not necessarily
confer il. To know this or that fact
in history or in art, TO have read
novel, or listened to an opera is of
little consequence unitSS there has been
4 response in mental vigor. unless these
isolated data give their fine aroma,
their essence, that enters into and is
aSsimilated in character and re-
produced by intellectual activity.
The average woman may be
taught TO be a pianist. a. she NAV
be taught embroidery; she may be
trained TO a certain technical degree of
excellence in pictorial art; she may be
cultivated in all conventional forms of
etiquette: but she can no more be
taught, by external means. to be a good
converSationalist than she can be
taught TO write a novel or a dramatic
poem. 1t Is the tragedy of life that the
generality of people have nothing on
earth TO say that Is worth the saving or
hearing. They have read the latest
novel: they have met the reigning
social lion. But what have they to
show for it? They will inform YOU
that they like-or dislike. a. NAV be
the novel, the opera. or the individual.
And what does that signify? Their
personal preferences or prejudices are
Of no possible consequence. But the
woman who can dramatic her impress
sions-who has certain definite reasons
for the faith that is i'm her. who can tell
YOU what the author means in the
novel, or TO what degree the artist
-ealiZeS lyric art. or who can define for
YOU something in the personality of the
