Now, this js true, gentlemen, and brother Brigham, bro- ther ‘Tele anda great many others can beur wit- ness of it. There is a new fashion that our boys have got hold of, and ern? bits and bridles, and then with their hermaphrodite pantaloons they wok ridiculous. 1 will speak of ay own boys, for bad are like the rest, and to take thi rough and tumble as they come in this mountain lite; to go into the woods, take hold of a lion’s beard and wil ‘him to stand still, their backs are like the women’s, they are cut nearly in two with these cursed fash- ions, 80 that they have bot little strength left in them. | understand those officers out pee have ¢ good many women with them, and I do,not be- ve there are twenty in the whole camp but what are whores, and they designed to come here to set you a pattern, and fo moralize this community. | way, will not they feel pretty straight by next spring? ¥ think they will feel consideral Iy cooled off by ext spring, and I have an idea that by that time they will feel disposed to quit their prostitution, and if they do not go away we will make them march pretty quick. Those soldiers cannot rule ever us nor their civil officers either, for they are meanest ef the corruption of the world. It makes me angry, but Iwill not sin about it, but | feel displeased at such Things. HEBER WANTS DECENT MEN FOR SOLDIERS—HATES iy, , WHISKEY PARTIES. If men will take a course to demoralize themselves we will draw the Jine and divide the evil from the good, and we will have those who corrupt them- selves stay at home, and let the pure in heart go out to war. And this is not all; Lam opposed toany man’s going into those mountains to stand between us and our enemies that will get drunk. We do not want any man there but what we can lay our hands pen and dedicate to the Lord, and we do not want any there but who will do that which is right ‘am the sight of God and man, but we want men that will pray and keep their covenants sacred; in short, we want men that are acceptable in the sight of God; they arethe men we want. It is true that we are the best people there is on the earth; but still there are a great many things I do not like to see, and one is when men get up a party] do not like to see drinking whiskey the very first thing that ia in- troduced, and especially to go so far as to pollute themselves. Some of you might say, “Brother Ki ball, gre 's have heen doing the same thing;’’ ii they have 1 do not fellowship them in that, but disfellowship them for so doing, and so does Brother Brighom and every other good man. YONG LIVES AND BRIGHAM NEVER TO DIE BY THE HAND OF HIS BNEMY. We are God's representatives, and if you want to know whether you will ever go into the presence of God, | can tell you that you never will unless kearn to obey your brethren, Then live to sustain the authorities ‘of this kingdom by your works, and we shall live scores of years. Brother Brigham ever will die by the hand of an enemy, neither will 1, nor any of you, if you will do your duty; bro- ther Bi is just as secure as the roots of a tree, if every limb performs its duty.

(From the Wasbington Union, april 13 Our readers may remember that on the jth instant Senator Biggs, of North Carolina, called the atten- tion of the Senate to some extracts from a book en- titled “The Impending Crisis of the South,” quoted in the published speech of Senator Wilson. The Senator went on to show that the author of this book was ‘a dishonest, degraded, and disgraced man, and although--much to be regretted—a native of North Carolina, yet he is an apostate son, ruined in fortune and character, and catering to a diseased appetite at the North to obtain a miserable liviag by uders upon the land of his birth. Kveeply re- gret (continued Goy. Biggs,) that the Senator from Massachusetts has, by a reference, so dignitied the creature as to render necessary this exposure. Such is Mr. Helper, of North Carolina, author of the ‘Im- pending Crisis of the South,’ alias Mr. Telfer, once of North Carolina, but who has left the land of his birth for the good of the State.” It is supposed that Mr. Helfer, alias Helper, was at once sent for, and this morning he was vaporing about the departments making threats of what he would do could he discover Mr. Biggs’ informant. Aiter the adjournment of Congress he made his ap- pearance in the hall of the House of Representatives, (with other individuals who were probably his con- federatea,) and going behind the chair of Hon. Bur- ton Craige, commeneed an impertiaent questioning. It is avserted by those near by that Mr. Craige denied having furnished the information, and referred him to Senator Biggs, wherenpon Helfer, alias Helper, be- came abusive, and an altercation ensued. The fo!- lowing account of what transpired was furntkhed us by the Hon. Augustus R. Wright, of Georgia, an eye- witness:— Approaching the Speaker's desk in front, Mr. Craige sits immediately to the left of the ais! the front tier of seats. My seat is next to Mr. Craige’s, on the same row just to his left. The death of ‘Thomas H. Benton, ex-Senator from Missouri, had been announced a few momenta before, and the House adjourned to permit attendance of members at bis funeral, Mr. Craige was still in his seat. I was still in mine, reading the editorial scraps in the morning's Globe. My attention was attracted by a tall, dark skinned man, with rather a sinister, savage look, asking Mr. Craige, very abruptly, if he had made a certain statement—I did not understand distinctly what. ‘The conversation proceeded, mildly upon the part of Mr. Craige. A few seconds satisfied me that the man either intended to attack Mr. Craige, or compel the member to strike him. This caused me to sean him instantly from head to foot, and to compare him oa gpa with Mr. Craige. I was satisfied that the lavter could whip him. If did not like the lurkin; eye of the esis ip however, and was pretty sure. saw the mark of a bowie-knife or pistol under his coat. The idea of assassination, like a flash of lightniog, impressed itself upon my mind. | deterinined to take part in the rencontre, if necessary to prevent it. I should have gone for the sergeant-at-arms, but was afraid to leave as a collision was evidently approach- ing. I rose from my seat silently and went round Mr. Craige’s seat and took my seat just at the side of the intruder, intending to seize hiv arm if be at- tempted to draw a weapon. Casting my eye around, I saw twoor three men, not members, and strangers to me, in members’ seats close by, watching the progress of the difficulty. They may have been there accidentally. My opinion was and is, they were there by design. {felt a cri- sis was approaching of great danger to the member from North Carolina, perhaps to myself. I would have gone for the sergeant, again thinking of it, but the difliculty was manifestly precipitating, and I thought it would not do to leave him. The intruder used some offensive epithet about “salaveholders;” I cannot remember it. Mr. Craige said, much ex- cited, “Leave here, sir; | will not be insulted ia this ce by any such puppy,” or words of some such mport. The man retorted, with menacing attitude, “You are « slaveholding coward,” or w to that effect. Mr. Craige struck him, and was struck about the same time in return, the stranger fighting with his fists, contrary to my expectations. Fighting, they moved toward the Speaker's desk. 1 followed, watching closely for the weapon, intending to seize him if he attempted to draw one. I was morally certain Mr. Craige was unarmed, though 1 did not know the fi The man fought with more energy than | antici- pated, but Mr. Craige was evidently getting the advan- tage of him, when he let go of Mr. Craige; | thought then, 1 still think, to get his weapon. 1 sprang for- ward to seize him, but some other gentleman was abead of me, and they were myo f separated.

Paez woula bring the agcendency of the party which governe? for sixteen years, and whom the people indignantly thrust trom the positions which they thought were reserved for them sione—their exclusiveism, their inseneate pride and their anti-demo- cratic designs.

LICENSE evening in the Seventh Ward Hotel, Madison street, in pursuance of the following aivertizement:—'To conailer the best means of resisting the enforcement of a despotic ordinance, which secks to make us subservient to the pro- prietors of junk shops. From the course pursued by Mayor Tiemann we sre forced to beliove that he considers all ‘Doatmen as slaves and means to conatitate the junk deal ers their masters. We mean to show the Mayer that we are free mon, and will have all the rights guaranteed to us by the Bill of Rights,” Thoro was a largo attendance of boatmen, and great enthusiasin was manifested, Mr, Trsormy McCartuy, President of the association, presided, and introduced Mr. Rowxns M. Poxx, who addressed the meeting «t some length. He stated the object for which they ai sembied that evening, which was to endeavor to move forward in a poli column to porsuade Mayor Nomann and the Corporation of New York that the boatmen have a right to earn an honest living without being subservient to any other ciass in the community, The rivers of New York were very troublesome, and a great many depredations were committed in both, Tne poiico had complained that thoy were no able to apprehend the guilty parties, as they escaped i+ boats; apd then the witeaores at the City Hall cama ty the ccnclusion that it would be a good policy 19 keap al the boats off the river unless they had the name and number of some junk shop proprietor upon them. Th Corporation parsed an ordinance or contrived one w efle that object. He was assured the junk shop propriat did pot desire to take out their licenses and be rasponaible for other parties, Itwas t remove this ord panes and precure for the boatmen an opportunity to have their owa doats and take their own license of that they had ine: that evening. Ae suggested to the Rgatmen of New York that they ehouid each pay 25 cents, ‘employ an able law- yer, and let him take the ordinance and bring the ll of ‘Rights to bear on it and tear itto pieces in one of thy courts. Tbe speaker commented on Mayor Tiemavn’s policy, and referred to bis onslaught on the boatmen and the lottery dealers, and concluded by suggesting that the doatmen ehould a'ste to the Police Commissioners the grievance under which they labored, and also, if they procured licenses in weir own pames, to give their name and residence and designate where their boat was lyin; and where they could be found when wanted. He did not expect anything from the Mayor, Richard Busteed or the Corporation, as they were ali too busy making dollars and cente.

Epwarp Mere, who resides between Fleventh and Twelfth avenues, presented a petition signed by two hun- dred perrons who are desirous of having the use of steam cars discontinued. He stated that there was no use in repeaung arguments which bave so often been aubmitted to the committee, but the principal res ton why objections were raise? against the use of the steam cara ix because they doprive those partion who ro- aide on and in the neighborhood of the Heventh avenue of facilities which they would otherwise have for coming. down town. Mr. Saxyonn said that he came there on behalf of Mr. Stryker, who could pot attend in consequence of illavss. Be reqneeted that the vrommittee would hold another meeting, in order to give him an oppertuaity of appear- upg before them to state what be might have to say ta ad- dition to the reasour he bes already giveo, to show that the vse of atenm care below Fifty-ninth sireet should he deccrtinued. This, however, the committee did not feel themecives justified in doing, as they had alreaty heid two meetings for the eaine purpose. Mr. Norru appeared for the railroad company. He sated (bat be felt assured that the company woukt ac- commodate the gentlemen who want a ride down towa by stopping the cars twice 2 day in some convenient piace below Fifty pinth street, in order to sfford those who re- side in the ye ge an opportunity of comme to thelr business in the morning and returning in the evening, and thus the principal objection to the use of steam cars would be removed. If the ordinance pro- hibiturg the railroad company (rom running sinall horse cars through the city for the accommodation of prxsen- ers was repeated, thay would then run those small care; ut he did not see any just reason why the railroad com- pany should be deprived of the use of property which cost them immense ers of poo A ip order that other might bave an opportunity of establianing a line of car om the avenne, and thereby protiting by the losees of the company. He denied the ktatementa that had been mado relative to the rate at which the trains travel below f if, nitth street; for since the firet application had been m to tbe Common Council by the property owners, notices, | which may be seen to this day, have been po.ted up in ali their cflicea, directing their employes nut tw increase the momentum of the cara beyond teu miles an hour. At this stage of the 4 the committer advised both parties te try to settie some of the difficulties be- | consider the matter. tween them by & mutual agreement, as, from the turn | im regard to bis removal, Belivved an agree- | they will 20 do. that the arguments had taken, they ment might be effected.
