An eminent English artist has for the past
two years been engaged upon picture which
is entitled s"The Shadow of the Cross" It
represents the sunset hour, the scene being q
carpenters shop and the characters the
Saviour and His mother The days work is
just done, and Christ stands erect His arms
extended in the ancient attitude of prayer
His mother kneels, with her back turned tow
ard the observer and her face in the direction
of her Son. The room is filed with the sacred
radiance of solemn sunset, and as the figure
Of Jesus intercepts q portion of the light the
shadow of a cross is projected from His erect
attitude and outstretched arms. Upon this
shadow His mothers gaze is supposed to be
riveted, with o tragic provision of all that it
portends. Her face cannot be seen, but her
hands and arms are eloquent, and inform us
Of her agonized amazement almost as force
fully as her features could do. In that grim
shadow she reads, with spiritual eyes, the
pathway that her Son must tread. The moral
of His life for the first time breaks upon her,
and she shrinks in speechless anguish before
the Divine Mystery to which she has been the
medium of giving birth.


Perhaps the emotions which the artist has
impaired to Mary at this supposititious moment
will find an echo in more than one heart
during the solemnitiss of to-day. 1t is one
thing to have followed the ritual during life
time it is another to penetrate the spiritual
meaning which underlies it and to take in,
broadly and deeply, the whole significance of
Christ's birth, life, sufferings and death. The
shadow of the cross has fallen over all human
ity, and that darkness imprints tender stain
upon the garment Of every penitent The
sombre poetry of the Passion finds rhyme in
every heart and oil human natures saddest
and most valuable experiences are versifed to
the metre of the crucifxion. With all that
there is attractive and fascinating about an
honest scepticisn, faith still continues to
soften it's millions of hearts, and the world is
better for believing that those who are willing
may be saved by the death Of One who was
perfect. But it would be pleasant to antici-
pate that the Good Friday which we solemnize
to-day would leave an ineradicable influence
upon society. The most that we are warranted
in expecting is that its celebration is one OF
those benefoent stays which prevent our being
quite 80 reckless as we might otherwise be-
come. Human nature in general-and, per.
haps, New York human nature in particular
needs as many of these sacred hinderances as
can possibly be secured, and we therefore hope
that the exalting influences of to-day will ex.
tend widely, deeply and permanently.

While the HERALD has been sending its
commissioners to Africa and to Cuba, and has
its representatives in every civilized nation OF
the earth, seeking to gather up the facts OF
current daily history, it has at no time been
indifferent to passing events at home, and
where energy and bravery have been
called for it has had willing mes
sengers ready at moments notice
to 60 whittier duty called. The deep preju-
dices existing in Utah between the Gentle
and the Mormon have rendered it difficult to
receive from that Territory at any time per-
fectly unbiased report from either side in the
controversy that has SO ong continued to
threaten the peace Of the people and the sta
bility of its best commercial interests.


With a realizing sense Of our obligations,
as an Independent journal to spare no effort
or expense in placing before the world the
facts of all controversies that interest our
people, we thought it but fair and just to the
Mormon Prophet that he should be heard at
this time, when there is so much rumored and
SO little understood about his purposes and
designs that seem calculated to disturb the
commercial relations Of the Mormon people
with the rest of the world.


We offered to Ex-Governor Young the use of
our columns to explain. He has done SO in
his own way and style, and we give his de-
spatch verbatim.


1t is not fitting that we should at the present
moment comment at any length upon his
sentiments and the judgment that he passes
upon his own labors and the purposes of his
life, but we may properly enough suggest that
if the same iberality Of sentiment ex-
pressed in this epistle were borne out in
the sermons in the Tabernacle and in the
Mormon press at Salt Lake City there
would be little foundation for quarrel be-
tween the Saints and the sinners. At the
ripe old age Of seventy-two we can well imag-
inc his desire for peace, and we would be glad,
indeed, that the worldwide publicity which
the HERALD gives to the utterances of the
Mormon Prophet this morning would be the
ushering in of the millennium in Utah. We
are, however, given to some cynicism in face
Of Brighams magnificent prospectus of his
own and his Saints little commercial games.
He is prophetic in his despatch, probably the
first instance Of prophesying by telegraph on
record. Time alone tests these things.

lar State Convention. The session was private,
but 1t Is rum0red the committee INDUCED in q
pretty warm discussion upon several matters con-
cerning the present political outlook. The ques.
tions Of prohibition, the recent movements OF the
State Police Commissioners and kindred subjects
came up upon q motion or suggestion being
made that efforts be put forth by the party to
the repeal Of the present sumptuary laws In
regard to the liquor traf1c, and that agitation in
favor OF wholesome license law be commenced
and persisted in throughout the coming
campaign. This was met with strong
opposition, and an animated and rather
pointed discussion ensued, IN which 1t was openly
charged that the liquor dealers in Boston were in
lavOr OF the pr0hibitOry law and in league with
the state constables, whose corruption they con-

In another column we publish the whole Of tho


second Inaugural Address of President Grant.


Like the first it looks quite favorable aud is well


stored with promises for the future But we hope


that it may not, like the first be violated in the


direction and conduct of the affairs of the nation


create strife blood shed and almost civil war,
instead of giving us peace was promised and
the people were led Ia believe his chief efforts
would be to promote in every part of the Union.


There is little in the document TO complain of
except its weakness. In reading it every one
will at once feel that the President has become
aware of his own deficiencies in craftsmanship ;
and hopes to succeed in his second term better
because of his experience during the frst. We
sincerely hope that he may be successful in
avoiding the mistakes of the post, and that the
country may find it has a President who will re-
gard all the people of the thirty-sevcn States as
his countrymen, and SO treat them


The Santo Domingo job is referred to and an
awkward apology is made for attempting the
annexation of that territory against the wish of
the people, wherein he says


"In future, while hold my present office, the
subject OF acquisition of territory must have the
support Of the people before will recommend
any proposition looking to such acquisition"


His reference TO the social status of the negro
needs explanation. !. docs not come up to the |
demands of Mr. Sumner, but demands for The |
ne yro "Civil Rights" "Socal Equality" lac says |
ais not a subject to bc legisated upon, nor shall |

the social status of the colored man except TO |
give him fair chance to develop what there is /
good in him. Give Kim access to schools and L
when he travels let him feel assured that his con-
duct will regulate the treatment aud fare he will
receive"


Here we are certainly not TO infer that the Ad-
ministration is TO demand that the negro shall
have access to the schools Of the whites. For
certainly this cannot be done without forcing
upon the children Of the whites 'social
status, that is not recognized by white parents,
nor will they submit to it. But this may not be
so understood 10y all.


On this:important subject the Inaugural is not
upto the expectations of the people In this State
the chief supporters Of the President have been
demanding admission for the negro to our schools,
and it would have been well if the President had
been more clear and decided in his language As
the matter rest now, should Delaware be so un-
fortunate to fall into the hands Of the oppo-
nents of the Democratic party, the schools may
be opened TO the negroes or the school dividends
paid to negro schools, and the Inaugural be
quoted to sustain the action.
The breVity of the document is commedable,
but it closes with fling at the opponents Of
its author during the campaign, which is in ex-
ceeding bad taste, and shows a disposition TO
harbor malice, that never should be eyinced on
such an occasion.
