<a) MORMONISYH. POLITICS, RELIGION AND AMUBEMENTS. Anniversary Colebration of the Soitle- mont of Salt Lake City. Mutual Admiration of George Francis Train and Brigham Young—Urigham on the Btage end George Francis in the Pulpit—Train Pzenches Treason in the Tabornatle— Baye Bell, the British Blondaa ond Negro Minstrels. _ Sart Lage Orry, July 30, 1870. ‘This carthly Zion is just now a land of plonty of poliiics and amusements as well as of religion. Araong the orthodox Mormon population religion, Tike the “lean kine” in Pharogh’s dream, swallows everything. If a prosperous apostate is to be ruined in his business, ifa laboring man who has been excommunicated for his independence is to be vefased employment in consequence, if a sister is to be made “‘perfoct through suffering” by the sacrifice of her finer feelings and afiections, if a widow is to be despoiled of her property or money #6 pay the Prophet, if any new temporal or spirit- val scheme to better rule or rob the people and exrich the priesthood is concocted, it is all done in sanctimonious style, ‘in the mame and for the sake of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amon.’ ficif- righcousness, insincerity and swindling are among the many things which make Mormonism of such small repute in the eyes of other people. During the last two days the New Taber- nacle has been the scene of scrvices that formed acurions combination. On Sunday, after preaching by one of the apostles, there was an amusing repre- * pentation by a clover clown, and then, religion and recreation being as quickly changed for politics, the congregation was turned into a political pro- cession, and the saints, headod by their Prophet anda band of music, marched to the railroad te- pot, whence a special train conveyed the Prophet, the clown, the apostles and a host of other saints to Ogden, to welcome home the Mormon delegate to Congress. On Monday there was a public cele- bration of the twenty-third anniversary of the ar- rival of the Mormons in “this valley of the moun- tains,” during which the renomination of the Aelegate was ratified. The sacredness, solomnity and “divinity” of the proceedings were “sealed” by Brigham’s benediction. On both occasions slanders upon the people of the United States and ‘treason against our government were preached and applauded. ) To begin with the amusements. On Friday evening last Mr. Walter Montgomery, an English elocutionist, “the Edwin Booth of England,” who has come to this country from the colonies all un- heralded, read selections from the standard poets and produced a favorable impression upon a large and appreciative audience, He is en rovte ‘to New York and other eastern cities, whose in- habitants will have opportunities of witucasing his extraordinary attainments. The clown that I referred to in the preceding paragraph is George Francis Train, He was an- nounced to lecture in the theatre on the following evening. Brigham Young, acting @% his harle- quin, accompanied him on the stage to introduce him to the audience. Ihave often seen Brigham ‘at the theatre, but this was to me his first appear- ance on the stage, notwithstanding ie has been “starring” it among the Mormons for nearly a quarter of a century in what some of them ftyle his celebrated role of “heavy vil- Vian.” The attempted introduction in it- self was ludicrous, Both eame on the stage together; Brigham bowed to George ‘Francis, George Francis bowed to Brigham; neither said anything; both snufiled for a while: Brigham shuflcea ont, leaving George Francis at ths footlights and the audience mingling their applause with laughter. The sequel of Train’s sojourn among the Mormons has shown how comn- pletely George Francis has toadied to Brigham aad Brigham to George Francis. When Brigham finds a fool that he can use he is smart enough to use him, and in this respect George Francis fz romething like-him, In the warm weather which we are having here as well as in the e4, it is really refreshing to see two such gcku6wledged hhumbugs thus hoambugging eva other. Train delivered one of his usual cecentrie, epigramatic Tectures on everything and everybody, “piling on the agony” i his fulsome’ flattery of Brigham Yeting and George Francis Train, or 0 put it as he ut it, George Frencis Train and Brigham Yous. He pitched into the Gentiles and praixed the Mormons, whose sufizages he solicited for himself as Presi- deot of the United States in 1872, On Sunday af ternoow George Francis was at the Tabernacle, and #it among the Twelve Apostles. On tiis ov- casion he appeared in his character of preacher. Aor Apostic George Q. Cannon had preaclied to the Saints wwhile and when the sacranient was be- ing administered, lie introduced George Francis, who regaled the congregation with one of his characteristic speeches. Again he praised Brig- hem Young, the Mormons and ‘their peculiar insti- tudons. It Young, he said, had been a small po- tatoe, os Grant is, he would’ have gone down be+ fore to-day. He considered humility a swindle and believed in the virtue of assumption. He told the Mormons that they should no longer act on the defensiv they had played defendant long enough; it was now time for them to play plaintiff; and the time had come for them to catry the war into the East. He inflamed their minds with the treasonable connsel that if through the passage of any law of Congress people should come to interfere with thera or their institttions, the Mormons should meet them at the frontier, and he told them, “by your powder and ‘our rifles shoot them down as you would dogs.’”’ Eotehare Young, who is proverbially a cowatd, would not now dare to give such sangainary counsel to his people, but it just suits his purpose to have some irresponsible person do it for him. After some remarks from George: As. Sritir tle choir sang, “We thank thee, O° God, for a ,Proplier,” the mutual admiration ceased, and,. as I have already mentioned, the congregation was tured into a political procession to welcome home the Mormon delegate to Congress, ‘The twenty-third anniversary of the. arrival of the pioneer party of the Saints in this valley of Sait Lake was celebrated: yesterday, The anni- versary of the day came this year on Sunday, but the celebration was postponed till Monday, The Pouth of July is of mach Lag ie salah to the Saints than the 24th; in fact, the 24th is their “In- dependence Day.” It was ushered ia at sunrise by the booming of cannon, after which flags were raised on public and private buildings. The eccular and Sabbath schools, with their flags and banners, met in their ward meeting houses, aod the pioneers, apostles and other prominent offici- civis at the City Hall, and tlenall proceeded from their respective rendezvous to the New Taler- nacle, where the “Saints of all ages” assembled to participate in the celebration services. These were opened with singing by the choir, after which the chaplain of the church, Elder Wil- ford Woodraff, offered up a prayer, and Captain Croxall’s hand played an appropriate air, the original words to which I believe are ““O God bless Brigham Young.” Elder Orson Pratt, one of the pioneers as well as one of the twelve apos- tes, then delivered an extempore oration in which he pictured the persecutions, privations and perils of the Saints from the organization of their cliurch, through all their “wanderings in tho wildernoas” to the present period; pointed out what he believed to be the superiority of their pices over those of all other Christian denom- nations ; how the hand of the Most High had guided them evermore through all their remark- able vicissitudes, and how polygamy was the crowning glory of all their divinely ap- pointed iustitntion’. Orson Pratt has Jately ecome a monomaniac on polygamy. He is a perfect patriarch in years and in appearance. Ue lately married a young girl, notwithstanding he had already and sta has several other wives whom he refuses to support. And yet Pratt will prate for hours upon the beautios and blessings of polygamy. : ps ae, Pratt sat down Bishop MoAdlister sang ‘a song, George A.

It was an insult to the Stars and Stripes to have them displayed in the tabernacle at their treasonable celebration services. One in- cident of the scene was Young hobnobbing with Hooper, the delegate to Congress, for political effect among the people. The Prophet showed his approval of tub del . Hooper was pro- posed for re-election in ober, the nomination Was unanimously ratified by a show of hands, in- cluding thore of all the children, and then all the men and women were instructed to vote at the election, Then there were loud calls for George Francis Train, who solemnly sat in the seat of t! aposties, but he was not brought forward. The chote sang ‘How Beautiful Among the Moun- taing’’ and Brigham Young pronounced tie bene- diction, While the assembly was dispersing a salute of fifteen wane was fired in honor of Brig- ham Young, his two councitlors and the twelve gpostles, A Territorial salute was fred at sua- down and the celebration was closed with a dis- play of droworks, wring the afternoon, as the day was a general holiday, two rival base ball clubs, composed of some of the rising Gentile generation of Salt Lake City and Corinne, played a retnra match game, which attracted a good deal of attention. Nearly two thousand people were present as spectators. Ona previous occasion the Corinne club won, nd on this they were badly beaten by the Salt ers, Henry Beckett's British Blonde Burlesque Troupe have just commenced a short engagement heve, and have had # favorable recepti both saints and sinners.

I was helped to the edge of the river Mississippi end carried aeross, When Brother Kimball and I started on our journey there was a struggle be- tween us and the powers of earth and hell whether or not we should accomplish our mission. We were in the depths of poverty, caused by being driven from Missouri, where we had left atl. I re- collect that one of my own sisters pitied my condi- tion and situation ; she was sorry for mo, and said, “Brother Brigham, what necessity is there for you to go to England while you are sick? Why not tarry here until you are well?” 1 said to her as T staried offone morning, “Sister Fanny, I never felt better in my life.” She was a very eccentric woman, and looking at me with tears in her eyes she said, “You lie.” I anid gop but I was de- termined to go to England or to die trying. My firm resolve was that I would do what I was re- wired to do in the gospel of life and salvation, or t ‘ould die trying to do it. Iam so to-day, Wo landed upon the sheres of England, and then I felt that the chains were broken, that the bands that were upon me were burst asunder. Twelve months and sixteen days a few of the Twelve and Seventies tarried in England. In those twelve months and sixteen days, under my supervision, between eight and nine thoosand per- sons were sg eee {though some apostatized) be- fore we left, the churches were organized, the emi- grationprepared, ships were chartered and compa- nies sailed out. When Landed in Liverpool I had ‘six bits, with which I purchased a hat. twelve months and sixteen days one of the finest vessels inthe harbor tied up eight days to carry myself and brethren across the water. The agents of the vessel said such a thing had never been done before; but they were urgent and anxious to oblige us, for we lind chartered and fiited out several vessols,and as our emigration promised te be « large business they wanted to car us home, that twelve months we _ hai printed flve thousand copies of the Book of Mormon, three thousand hymn-books, and commenced the Milenial Star; over sixty thou- sand tracts had been printed aad sent by the hands of the elders to many of the houses ‘a the towns they visited, or distributed in their meet- ings; and in this way the Word was distributed and the work carried on for, one short twelve months. Our Inbor was succesefal, God blessed us, and when we returned our Book of Mormon was paid for. The gentleman who bound the first Books of Mormon in England hinds thom to day when any have to ms Bound. owed the fires farthing to those Who have done this Werk for us, buthave paid promptiy, accord- ing to promise, for every particle ef our printing. Besides doitg what I have already mentloned fi that twelve months I sustzined Several families while there, and preserved them from starvation and death. All this was through tho Dloas- ing of the Lora being upon us. We were strangers) ead unknown in a strange land, by the work prospered under the havés of the servants of God, and the means to do the work that was done was procured through I haye before taken the liberty, ina public capacity like this, fo tell my brethren and sisters that Ido noterecollect of spending move than one penny, needlessly, while in Bagland, and that was for a bunch of grapes while passing through Smithfield Market, Man- chester, When [took themin my hand I saw Wonlen passing through the market who I knew were sulfering ee hunger, ard who probably perished and died. 1 felt that I ought to have iven that penny to the poor.

Serious Accident to the Famous Trottiiz Mare Laay Thoru—She is Rendered Worttiless. From the Rochester UnYon, August 4.) The famous trotting mare Lady Pnorn met with a severe accident this morning, which has rendercd her useless forever. She was being put on board 2 car near the Central depot to go to Buitaio wien the accident occurred, Lady Thorn, in company with George Palmer, trivelin a speciat car prepared expressly for their use. Attached to tis car and swung beneath it isa wide bridge or platform upon which they are led on board. This platform is strong and broad, and for horse to fail from it tgimposstble. The’ party in charge of Lady Thorndid not use the bridge ihus prepared and carried witht the car, but procured a narrow bridge at the depot near by—one wholly un- fit for such a purpose. He then attempted to ‘lead the flare by @ halter up tls bridge into the car, Betng bund in one eye she missed step with a for foot.and fell ofthe bridge sidewise, striking heavily. upon the'raily The bones of one of nér hips were crushed and a& consideraple fiesh wound was: in- flicted. She was got upon her feet and was able to walk with considerable dimculty to a private stable in North St. Paul street, where she remains, Dr, Som- merville, of Buffalo, a veterinary surgeon of some distinction, was seat for. He Will arrive at five o'clock, The opinion seems to be unavimous that Lady Phorn is ruined as. a trotter. This accident was the result of sheer carelessness im substituting an unsuitable bridge for a suitable one carried with the car, and for not using mora than ordanavy. pre- caution in getting the horse om board after taking this bridge. Lady Thorn was sold this season for 330, it is strange that the owners would trust Her in the hands of persons wio could be so stupidly careless a8 were (hose who attempted to yet her on board the car this morning. ‘Thetr neglect. was proven on the spot. Aiter the accident to Lady Thorn the bridge was thrown aside and the one under the car brough! owt and George Palmer was easily and safely put on board the car. Lady Tiorn trotted here yester and her last heat, probably forever, was made In 2:21%—the fastest time ever made here, and, considering the length and state of the track, the fastest she ever made, Later.— careful examination alscloses the fact that the hip bone of Lady Thorn is broken, ‘This seems to remove ail doubt as to her appearance ‘again upon the turf. Her career is ended, GENERAL NOTES, The sum of $5,738 75 has been subscribed to the French Patriotic Fund in San Francisco, “to be distributed to the families of French soldiers killed or wounded on the field of battle.”” A Mr. Garner, of Gadsden, Ala., has discovered @ worm ou his cotion which destroys the lice with wonderful rapidity, and then takes its departure without injuring the weed at all, Mr. Thomas Ewing, in a letter on the Mississippi river, develops an interesting theory of the ten- dency of rivers runuing southward to abrade their western banks, and attributes it to the constantly increasing cenérifugal force imparted to the water as it proceeds to the south. He enforces this explanation by poistins to the fact that ships safling southward must correct a westward ten- dency in all things moving northward. ‘The Cape Aun Adverliser reports that Captain Sohn Blatchford, upwards of aug ears of age, ‘a dory fisherman of Rockport, recently caught, in ‘one day, 1,172 pounds of pollock, receiving about ‘twelve for the lot. & very 4 woxk fete liars forthe ot voy Sa doy We have not !

The President's Visit and Its Object—A Noutral- ity Proclamation to be Issued—What the Grumblors Say About It-An Extra Session of Congress Not Proba- Dle-The Sogar-Lancoln-Wil- lard Caning Matehos—The Prevost-Paradol Suicide. { Wasmnaron, August 7, 1870, ‘The events of this week may be briedy summed Up as two Congresst onal caning matches and a Presi- dential visit, The caning aifairs nave been fully re- ported for your readers, and there is nothing more toadd concerning them except the mere fact that there promises to be a very dirty sequel ia the shapo of mutual exposures on the part of Segar and Iancoln. Segaris dreadfully enraged at what 45 termed the Yaukee meanness of his opponent, the hairless Lincoln, and the latter see: determined to have satasfaction for the indignities put upon him by the pnghacious Virginian. Therefore Lincoln is eugaged in the delectable work of painting Segar in the mosi uniovely colors, while Sogar is equally zealous in denouncing Lincom as a treacherous, cunning and dishonorable individual, Other parties are necessarily involved in the ridiculons squabble, and some of them, ibimay well be supposed, are a littie anxious to “hush up” the whole affair, The officers of the Pennsyl- Vania Central and Fredericksburg and Alexandria Railroad compamies are Interested, and many mem- bers of the Virginia Legistature no doubt would be well pleased 1f the whole matter could he covered with the mantle of eternal oblivion, But enough on the subject. THE PRESIDENTIAL VISIT infased a little abtmation hereabouts. Though he only stopped one day, or rather but twelve hours, the effect of President Graut’s presence matte itself felt taroughont our city very appreciably. The White House, which had been abaudoned and deserted- looking before, being under the occupancy only of the polite and genial Dent (General I. T.) and a few getitiemanly ushers, like Dunn and Fox, became live- ly once more, The visitors were many and frequent, and the requests for interviews with the President quite numerons, considering the great exodus of important people, office-seekers and pardon brokers, Even the hotels, which showed so few travellers on their daily registers, and which at night dis- played so many windows unilluminated, wore for the nonce the appearance of doing a thriving busi- ness again, In fact it would seem as if the President always draws with lim a train of mysterlous followers, who dog his steps wherever he may journey, and only make themselves known when his Excellency settles himself down in Washington. Their golden opportunity is the White House when Presideutiaily tenanted, At Jeast so they seem to think, though few of them reap much benefit from it; for the number admitted to commune with the sovereign of our republican court is siall mdeec. Yet they never lose heart. They are ever hopeful, ever light- hearted And industrious, never swerved for an in- stant or diverted from their great aim—which {3 to see the President and obtain the object of thelr am- hitions, either an office or a shake hands, THE CABINET MERTING which Occurred here during the President's twelve hours’ stay has led to a wonderfal amount of curious speculation. The opinions of the newsgatherers are diverse as the tints of the rainbow. Some will have it that an extra session to heal out wounded com- meree or to concer Medsures proportionate tu the magnitude of the LKarepean struggle was pusitively dectded upon.

It is hot worth while to Notice such petty litle ebullitions of partisun spite, NO EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRE pretty certaim that unless ¢ ary Occurs than has yet, there will be no ‘a session of Congress.

Then, after a | paase and some tine spent in revolving the thing in her mind, she suddenly said :=“How could he have | died of sunstroke during the night?
