The letier siates positively the young woman's name was McClure. that she and Bissell had been upon tern improper intimacy for some time, an that when the consequences ent, Bissell took Miss McC home and that becaine appar- lure away from B Nate an abortion upon her, the operation being performed at No. 11 Cross street. When it was found that the result was likely to be fatal he notified the girl's parents, and they had her removed to their home. and it was then that Bissell first gave the girl bis own name, and said they Wer married in order to quiet the suspictons of the parents. Miss McvUlure, or Mrs. Bis- sell, died on Monday last, andon Wednesday Mr. Bissell died also, his sadden death being autributed at the time to prostration caused by bis overwhelming grief at the death of his wife. The letier received by Dr. Ward goes on to state that Bissell did | not die of grief, but that his death | Was caused by poison, self-administered The letter was not signed, but as it was writ- ten in a very earnest spirit, and referred to Drs. Mills and Aaron Ward, thecouaty phy- Sician thought he would consult them. Both physicians referred to said they were satis- fied from their own knowledge of Mr. Bis- tell's case that he died from nervous prostra- | tion, the result of the shock caused by his wife's death; but inrelation to the death of Mrs. Bissell they were not so positive, but were under the impression that il was caused | by inflammation of the bowels. That they | Were in doubt, however, before County Phy- sician Ward directed their attention to the matter, is shown by the fact that Dr. Aaron | Ward is making an examination in the case | of Mrs. Bissel!, at the conclusion of which he €xpects pr sitively to be able to determine the cause of her death. {tis justice to the deceased and their friends to‘say that al- though the letter to the county physician states so positively the causes OF death in both cases, it bears date June 3i_a day not known (o the calendar, while Mrs. Bissell did not die until July 2, nor her husband until the 5th, on which latter day the letter Was deposited in the post office. | ——————_—— A SHip LOAD OF BAINTS—Mormon Emi- grants Flecking to Utah.—Seven hundred and lwenty-three Mormon emigrants arrived from Liverpool by the steamship Wisconsin, on Saturday, under the charge of Bishop John Bowberry, of Utah.

One of the sons of D. H. Wells, the counselor of Brigham Young, wes among the passengers, but remained tn ihis city to visit some friends before returning home. The company was composed of 24 English fami- lies, numbering 1 persons, about 300 Danes, 150 Swedes, 112 German-Swiss, 61 Norwe- gians, and about 20 Hollanders. Their ap- pearance was better than that of the majori- ly of emigrants. The emigrants were mostly tniddle-aged and young people, and upon inquiry it was learned that they were the remnants of families whieh had years ago | emigrated to Utah. Parents and sisters had been sent for by those already residents io Utah. A few Of the younger men were me chanies who had been induced to embrace the Mormon religion and settle in Utah. There appeared to be only one young woman Who righitully might be called pretty. She was apparently “sweet sixteen,” with mild Sray eyes, a smooth full face, b>autifal com- plexion, a delicate moath, and wavin brown hair.
