There is more damming going on at pres

is generally attributable to either scarcity

Bishop o. F. Whitney gave lecture in
the Provo meeting house on Sunday night
which drew out the largest audience that
has been packed together in that house for
many days. Long before the time for the
lecture to commepse, every available seat
or space for standing was occupied, and
hundreds of people were outside unable to
gain admission. The speaker announced
his subject to be ''Mormonism, indestructa-
bic and progressive" He claimed that
what was called ''MormOnism' was an
eternal principle that always had existed
and therefore could not be destroyed. The
efforts that have been made to destroy this
principle have always resulted in benefit
to the people. After leading his audience
into very serious contemplation of his
subject, Mr.. Whitney told some amusing
anecdotes BY way of illustration, which,
coming from such q source, had the effect
to cause the most serious to laugh right out
in meeting. The lecturer fairly captivated
his audience from the beginning, and al
though the people were packed together
like sardines, no one appeared tired and the
stricteSt attention was given by all during
the hour and a half occupied by the speaker.
The lecturer fully demonstrated by his
arguments that ''NIormOnism' is progress
i've and indestrUctabe. The only thing to
be regretted is that the Provo meeting
house was too small to accommodate ali
who would have appreciated the lecture on
Sunday night.

Act IS OfISS4.

Auditor o. B. Steele. always alive
to the interests of the people, has
issued an official circular calling the
attention of the police juries Of the
different parishes of the State to Act
38 Of 1854. This act directs the
police jury Of each parish, Orleans
excepted, to appropriate a sum of
money each year for the purpose Of
having recorded abstracts of entries
of lands made 10 the United States
Land Offices, ETC., for the use of
Assessors.
The object Of this law is that these
entries, as they are made, shall be
recorded in the parishes where the
land is located so that the assessors
may place them upon the rolls. On
account of this failure on the part of
the police juries, tens Of thousands
of acres of valuable lands have es-
capped taxation which was due upon
them the moment they were sold to
private individuals.
Spectators and other purchasers
of land need no better title than
that given by the land Office, and re-
cording it would only entail small
expense and insure that it would be
placed upon the tax rolls for parish
and State assessment. The amount
necessary to be appropriated as a
matter of course will he drawn as it
is needed, and will amount to a ba-
gateIle compared to the immediate
cash returns in taxes. It is hoped
that every police jury in the State
will give this matter immediate at.
tention so that this property may be
upon the rolls.-Advocate.

interest in the contest. England
has been brought into the American

"A Remarkable Scene.

Miles Kennedy, the last of the
Confederates, has at last reached his
old home, in Sumpter county, and
was welcomed home in. Americus
yesterday in a royal manner. He
was there for the first time since he
shouldered his gun in 1861 aud went
to the war. He was wounded near
Richmond during the dying days Of
the Confederacy, and was laid
up for some time after Lees surren-
der at farm house six miles from
Richmond, aud there tenderly
nursed until fully recovered by the
daughter of the man at whose house
he was staying. The war being
nearly over, and being solely with.
out means, he married the girl and
went to farming.
On the fourth day Of last April
he hitched up his faithful and only
steer to his wagon. and with his wife
aud eight children, and So in money,
all he possessed, turned the steers
head to the red old hills of Georgia.
His travel was necessarily slow, and
it was often that Mr.. Kennedy
had to stop on his way and
work for money with which to pay
his way and feed his steer and
family. The children kept healthy
all the way, bot the steer at one
time was taken down and for a time
there was gloomy prospects for the
old soldier and his brood. Finally
the steer got we'll, and on the
9Th instant, the entire party reached
Macon.
On the 18th he got to Amcricus,
his home. He was met some dis
tance out by a delegation Of citizens,
headed by the Americas brass band,
and escorted to the courthouse
square. Prof. Van Riper was on
hand and photographed the family
besides the OK and wagon. Colonel
A. S. Cuttsthon formerly. welcomed
him home in the presence Of 1000
people. By a slight effort about

"Pay John VVilliams.''

At a prayer meeting "down East"
a man noted for his failures to meet
business obligations arose to speak.
His subject was: What shall do
to be saved ?" He commenced slowly
to quote the words: "What shall
do to be saved ?" He paused, looked
around. and said again: "Wbat
shall l do to be saved?" Again
with more solemn tone he repeated
the question of questions, when a
voice from the assembly, in clear
and distinct tones. replied: "Go
and pay John Williams for that
yoke Of oxen."
The incident stirs up solemn
thought. A great many peopl,
before they can be saved, or guide
others to the Savior, will have to
'go and pay John Williams" the
money they honestly owe him.
Shrewd tricksters in the marts OF
the world are not shrewd enough to
be dishonest at heart and retain the
favor Of God, who loves purity in
the inward parts. Neither can a
hope Of the world to come be like a
sheetanchor in the soul of any one
who robs God by being dishonest
