Salvation—Sermon by McEvoy. At St, James’ Catholic church yesterday morn- ing Father McEvoy preached to a large congrega ‘tion an earnest and practical sermon on the obliga- tion we are under to labor assiduously for our sal- vation. Victory, said the preacher, is not gained ‘Without battle nor a prize won without a contest, He only will obtain the heaven'y prize and be erowned with glory who works to that end. PENANCE AND MORTIFIOATION must be done to atone tor sin. David did penance 4n sackcloth and ashes, and bewatled with bitter tears the two great transgressions he had commit ted, When. the Jews became conscious of ther great ingratitude to the Creator how earnestly did the prophets entreat them todo penance!

Love the Eud of the Law—The Wisdom of ‘Theological Professora—Thkeology a Chinese Puzzle. Whenever there is a nook left vacant in Ply- mouth church by an indtsposed or a lazy saint, some curious sinner is sure to drop into it, so that, how- ever coid the day, or however hot, or however rainy or snowy, Mr. Leecher's audiences are alway the same—only limitea by the limitations of space. ‘Yesterday was no exception to the rule, though the thermometer was low enough to make SLIPPERED EASE BY TAE PARLOR FIRE @ peculiar temptation. They are always taking up coutributions at Plymouth church, and yesterday the “boxes'’ were passed In the interest of city mis- sions, Mr. Beecher remarking that probably not half of the people in Brooklyn attend the churches, In the abseitce of Dr. Storrs, who always led in this work, he wished that bis congregation might outdo all former genervsity and make ample provision for ‘the Gospel to the poor and ontcast, Their usual ‘contr bution had been from three to five thousand dollars, and be wished it might be much more tals yer. Mr. Beecher announced as his text the fifth verse Of the first chapter of I. Tknothy—“Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, ‘and of a good conscience, and of love uufeigned.”” ‘The apostle is here teliing Timothy how to carry himself and how to teach others. He had been speaking in the previous verse of the ten thousand questions that sprung up among the Christians—of dissent, of purification of ordinances of days— quesiions that never could be settled, and he says that THE USE OF ALL INSTRUCTION, public or private, ts to produce charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith un- feigned, This is tne object of all teacning. All or- ganizations, all religious institutions, all systems of theology that Go noi produce love are false. Any church, orthodox or not, that does not prodace charity out of a pure heart 1s not a Christian organ gation. IF PAUL HIMSELF lived and administered in a church, and that church did not {ulfil the ceuditions of the text, it would not Christian. Love is the one great supreme end; but this love is not an ajifection proceeding from moral mdifference; it is love out of @ pure heart; that benevolcnce that springs from a nature Where the bignest moral sentiments predominate, a love that we have in preportion as we are divine. This love must carry wits It a good conscience, and conscience 18 a generic term Jor the whole moral sense. Conscience gives love ribs and backbone, Love, Without conscience, is namoy pamby; if 48 MUSH. True love has truth and character; it takes hold of inflnity and eternity, and that is the scope of tue term faith in the text; it isa faith that takes hold of super-sensuous things, of the great realm that science does not touch. Light may be thrown upon the administration of jutsice and benevolence in the divine Kingdom by his text. Men have taught that justice had a field all to itsel/, and mercy the same, When men angry they feel nothing else. When that passes away and they are good natured they feel nothing else. Their mind is like A HANDLE WITH TWO BLADES, when one is shut the other 18 open. So man has transferred this hutaan limitation to God, as if Teal justice conli exist without mercy, or real mercy without jusuce, Then come up two gschoo's, one revolving around the conception of God as a benevolent wovernor, the other made up of mea who believe in justice, The ideas of justice lifted ‘up before men have made God a being to be feared, @ consuming fire, as if Justice were not terrid hot ‘with love. Systems have been taught in which A HELL ONLY SMALLER THAN HEAVEN receives multitudes of souls through myriads of ages, and God sits by and cannot stir because He is just, It is no wonder that there is a terrific re- bound from this doctrine. But the soft hand of love has bones. It is not to be separated from Justice. There is discipline, tears, groans, suf- fering, not for sufiering’s sake but for improve- ment—the end of the commandment ts love, We make our human infirmities mto divine attri- Dutes, It is true tiiat man must reason of the divine from his own moral consciousness, but we should seize the most luminous hours of experience in which to SHAPE OUR IDEAS ff God.

Dr. Newman on the Great Apostacies—The An- cient Backsliders from the True Fai h—Re- joicing in Religion—The Bright Side the Beat Side in a Religious Point of View. Rev. Dr. Addison at Trinity Charch on ‘‘Re- Joicings In Religion.” WASHINGTON, Feb. 5, 1871. Rev. Dr. Addison, rector of Trinity Provestant Episcopal church, preached this morning from the text, “Rejoice evermore.’? ‘fhese grand words, he sala, were spoken by St. Paul while at Vorinth, and under circumstances that were little calculated to make him joyful. He was compelled to :abor for his daily bread, while at the same time he kept up with unflaggmg zeal his work of the apostleship. He uved at. that time amid the pollutions and miseries of the debased commercial emporium of Greece, struggling against the flercest fanaticism, encountering discouragements and disappointments, without the alleviations of bodily comfort and rest, with “the care of all the churches” on him. De- spised and persecuted, he bears all with cheerful- ness, shouting to his fellow sufferers, “Rejoice evermore.” The Thessalonians dwelt amid the des- olations of Paganism, where “man’s inhumanity to man” was making thousands mourn, suffering morai degradation, and utter hopelessness abounded on every hand. Yet the words were addressed to the people of Thessalonia, Man, said the speaker, has two natures—one 1s turned to the eart and 1ts mise ries, the other to Heaven and its life of peace, St. Paul calis these natures the carnal mind and the = spiritual mind. The carnal mind looks at the things which are seen; the sptrit- ual mind at the things which are not seen. The things seen by the Thessalovian saints were dismal enough. There was, indeed, no joy in that outiook of their being; bu) the tuings unseen were open to the spiritual mind. Here was truly another sort of prospect. There were no ships of commerce in this vision; no hurrying to and fro of wicked, anxious men, on the marts of trade; no disappointed strug- gies for life’s prizes, “frenzied with despair;” no want and poverty and humiliation; no before them, funeral processions, just out radiant in the glory. of Heaven, was the throne of Grace, with a loving Father seated on it. Jesus, the glorified Son of Man, at once their brother and their God, was standing at the right hand of the Supernal Majesty, their all- prevailing tatercessor, and the spirits of just men, too, once like them with sufferings tried, but now with glory crowned. This was what the disciples of Jesus saw amid the corruptions and the degra- dation of their natural life in Thessalonia, ‘Their apparent life was not their real life; their visinle condition was not their real condition; they were poor, but oh! “they were infinite- ly rich)? they were dying, but they were to live eternally in heaven; they were “rejected and despised among men," but oh! they were the sons of God—joint heirs with the only begotten One of endless glory. Dr. Addison then said that all God's people are commanded to rejoice, and if they were spiritually alive they must rejoice, for the vision of the saints 1s ever before thein filuming the ways of the world and alluring them to a joy which only the faithful followers ol Christ can possibly know, The resources of God’s love were at the command of tne humbiest chila of and. abiding in His love no power in Heaven, earth or hell could pluck them from His hands or separate them from His love. It is within the spirit world, where our souls have intercourse with Jesus and behold the glory of the Father, that we are bid to rejoice. affliction blesses by destroying the attractions that enchant our physical vision, and thus shutting us up to undisturbed enjoyment of our spiritual possessions in the invisible kingdom. As the Christian’s experience grows, and as he has an absolute present sensible grasp inthe depths of his nature of the reality and right of spiritual in- fiuences, his wope becomes firmer and he knows it will never make him ashamed by vanishing in dis- appointment His inner life of peace 18 In- destructible. ‘Rejoice evermore” amid all life’s keenest afilictions, and at the end, when the poor body is broken down with disease and ain and iabors in agonizing struggles to perform ts last feeble functions, then the soul that has beea living 1 communion with Jesus in the invisi- bie kingdom and has {ts treasures there, and has become more familiar with its light and glory and spirit than with the earth on which it has been dying dally for years, will find its spiritual expert- ence @ fountain deep and gushing over with un- mortal joy. In conclusion he said that sorrow and distraction retarded work for the Master—nay, ren- dered it impossible. If, with a hearty good will, they would put their hands to the plough and look back no more; if they would be faithful colaborers with all whoare in the vineyard of the Lord; if they would now determine that they wou!d no longer be mere barren cumberers of the ground they must obey the Apostle’s injunction, ‘itejoice evermore.” Dr. Newman at the Metrepolitan Church on the Great Apostactes. WASHINGTON, Feb, 5, 1871. The Metropolitan Methodist Episcopal Church was, as usnal, crowded this morning with a fash- ionable and attentive congregation. Ex-Governor and Mrs. Morgan, of New York, sat in the pew with the President, who was also accompanied by his sister, Mrs, Cramer. The Vice President and Mrs. Colfax and many Senaters and Represcntatives were among the congregation. Dr. Newman chose for his subject the great apostacy, taking nis text from Second Thessalonians, from third to twelfth verse, inclusive. It i8 @& remarkable coinci- dence that both Moses and Paul foretold great apostacies, said the preacher, which would occur in the future ages of the Church. The prediction of Moses, uttered with the promised land stretched out before him, was fulfilled long afterward, when the Romans, under Vespasian and Titus, destroyed Jerusalem. So Paul, just prior to his death, utters the prophecy recorded in the text. Ifwe analyze it we shall dis- cover that the apostle asserts several facta. First, that Christianity was to suffer from the apostacy of its adherents; second, that in the process of time a man or succession of men would come forth in the name of the Church who would sanction and practice great immoralities; third, that the apostacy would receive its inception in the day of the apostles; and lastly, that though {it should spread and imperil the interests of the Church, yet in His own good time God would destroy the evil and the Church should come ferth purified, with brignter glory and Cr strength. Such is a brief analysis Of the prophecy. Biblical scholars have applied this prediction in different ways, but the general testi- mony of such scholars applies it to the Christian Church under the Koman Pontiff, without giving it a'specific application. Dr. Newman aimed to deduce certain great principles applicable at the present day. The first thing noticeable in such a conside- ration 1s that this great apostacy had @ small ning. Take the three at features of the text—doctrinal errors, pretended miracles and min- isterial usurpation—which were developed in their strength fifteen hundred years after their orig! and ey may be traced jack to three men ens God's mode of governing the world, God ts = tern or never; He 1s uiways merciful or never. All such representaiions of God as leave the impression that he does not permit suifering or permit sin lower the love of the community; they are not scriptural or philosophical. 1am shocked when I think, not how little 1 know, but how much other people Know WHO, BY SEARCHING HAVR FOUND OUT GOD. Why a theologival professer? Men make wicker- work systems aud explain all God's plans and works. They hold up thelr theologies to you as if they were A CHINESE PUZZLE. And if you don’t know how you can do It “you're 10 better than an Armenian,” says the professor.” hat an Armenian 18 the man don’t know, but he wants to refer to it, The Methodists are separ. ated from the Presbyterians by the five points of Calvinism—I've forgotten what they all_are—the pubtlest questions that can be spun out. The Bap- tists and the Pedobaptists differ as to Whether a man shall be PUT ALL UNDER or sprinkled. Some differ in Church organization, some in doctrine, some in polity, some in ritnal or robes; as if God ever \hought of these tacks in the machinery. ‘Tho whole thing that the command- ment thinks aboat is charity. You may go home lived in the days of the Apostle Paul. To Nicolas of Anttoch, one of the seven deacons, is ascribed the origin’ of the doctrinal errors, While recely- ing Jesus Christ as a savior he blended with his worship the worship of idols. He also be- lieved in a community of wives and prac- ticed immorality. Following in the toot- steps of this man see how religious errors increase. One hundred years after him it was tanght that certain religious duties were not bind- ing on all. This was to accommodate heathen con- ‘verte—to bind Paganism and Christianity. It was taught that deception Is allowable in advancing the interests of religion, and this error has alee through all the ages. In the beginning of the fourth century came Arius, rejecting ie supreme divinity of Jesus Christ, declaring him not tobe co-equal With'ine futher, Next Pelagius attacks the docitine ef human reprobation, asserts tl obedience to law is enough to obtain everlastti life, thus setting Uhrist aside after having plucked the crown of divinity from His brow. Pretended mira- be traced back to Simon Magus, who deter- profession of religion or by bribery to wer of Peter and John of working Peter's reproot ig ralli Damas aw Helen by NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, FEBE@ARY 6, 1871.— name, went about teaching that in God are two na- tures, @ masculine aud a feminine, which he and this woman represented. With this he wrought false miracles in cenfirmation of the errors he promulgated. His example was speedily imitated, and hence we are not guiprised in the lapse of years to find even in the Church these lying wonders, Paul foretold that there Would be usurpations, tewe go to Asia Mivor we find a Bishop over a small Church who dented the authority of the apostie, and refused to receive the missionaries whe had been recommended to him, ‘This was the beginning, and it 1s no wonder that history shows us rivalries in the Church, siice two evils resulted from these rivalmes—tne union of Church and State under Constantine and the aivision of the Church into the eastern and western, or the Greek and Latin brane! Christianity is not responsible for the apostacy. Christianity, ike any other good, may be abused—as life or overnment. But shail life or a government be rejected on that account? Dr, Newman then revie' ‘he manner of the re- covery of Christianity from its declension, As the apostacy had a small beginning, so the recovery may be traced wack to individual exertions. In 1870 Wicklitfe’s voice was heard cailing the taichful to Christ and rebuking the sinful, So bitter was the hatred awuxened against him that his pones were burned and the ashes thrown into the Avon: but, as the Avon carried them to the Severn and the Severn to vhe sea, 80 may, were scattered these seeds of the reformation. Next arose John Huss, of Bohemia, spreading the good work in Germany. One hunared years later, when under Leo X., the Church treasury was exhausted, the public sale of indulgences began, This aroused the attention of a monk in a retired cloister, wlio bravely denounced the evil, declaring in his thesis that the indulgeucies: were not worth the paper they were written on. Martin Luther’s thesis was the tocstn for war, the keynote of the reformation which spread bee od out the Christian world. Dr. Newman closed by saying that such an apostacy can never again take place. We are now not only equal im standing to ‘he apostatie Church but are actually in advance in certain religious truths, There will be deciensions in this or that part of the, Church but these must yield to the power of the general Church and the reat revival shall advance til ity Waves awake an echo on the heavenly shore. ART NOTES. Artists? Fund Society. The exhibition of pictures contributed to the Artists’ Fund Society has been largely attended during the past week. It consists of works by fifty- one of our ieading New York artists; and, although some complaint has been made that it embraces but few of their larger and more important productions, yet the merits of those by Gifford, Keusett, Whit- tredge, Loop, Griswold, Fitch, Tait, De Haas, Fuech- sel, Huntington, Bonghton, Eastman Johnston, Homer Martin, David Johnson, Darley, Guy, Blau- velt and others—of whose contributions we have already made special mention—will attract many purchasers to the sale, which 1s to take place this evening at the spacious and elegant Art Gallery of Mr. Somerville, at the corner of Fourteenth street and Fifth avenue, The small size of most of these pictures makes them the more suitable for the walls and pockets of the majority of picture buyers, Julian Scott exhibits at his studio, 1a the Tenth street building, an amusing pictorial reminiscence of the war, entitled ‘“‘The Surprise,” representing a party of federal! soldiers who, after cautiously creep- ing up to @ place where the rebels had been in- trenched, find that it has been abandoned, and that they have been harmlessly biazing away at an ingenious combination of Quaker guns and scare- crow gray coats and blue, Mr. Scott has just finished two excellent portraits—one of Mrs. R. Schell and the other of Dr. Hayes, the Arctic ex- plorer. He has commenced a large historical ple- ture, to ilustrate a scene on Golding’s farm during General McClellan's campaign, {tis called “orm. ing Under Fire.”’ J. Bb. Irving, Jr., to whose exquisitely finished cabinet pictures we have heretofore alluded as com- parable with those of Meigsonier in all respects except the prices which fashion affixes to the latter, has lately completed @ superb portrait of Mrs, August Belmont. This 1s a three-quarter length, the figure in full dress—rich velvet covered with rare and costly Venetian handwoven lace—and Standing on a balcony that overlooks the sea at Newport. C. C. Griswold has removed to a studio in the Uni- versity Building. His walls are bright with faithful studies of Hudson river scenery, aud on his easel 1s apictare into which he 1s eifectively working up several of the most striking of these studies, J. Hope is completing in the Somerviiie Art Gal- lery building two or three large views of the unsur- passed brook and woodland scenery which he has discovered near Castleton, Vt. C. G. Roseaberg exhibits in the window of McFar- land’s bookstore, on Broadway, his telling election scene, “The Political Belisarius.” ‘The principal figure cannot escape recognition. Sitting near the entrance of the polling booth, he extends in silence his well known battered white hat, soliciting chart- table votes by a printed placard on his breast. He may “think d—n,” but he opens not his mouth, while his old favorite, Sambo, scratcnes his weolly pate in doubt whether to vote for him as Governor, and the “Heathen Chinee’? is ut his feet, and the lawyer, the squire, the parson, the farmer, the tradesman, the country dandy, the mecnanic, the one-armed veteran of the war, the newsboy and the other typical figures of the animated group, inciud- ing the scornful, strong-minded Sorosis of the vil: lage, pass him with indiflerence or contempt Instead ofsympathy. The artist ascribes to Mayor Hall, to whose order he painted the picture, the largest share in the design whicn his pencil has vigor- ously executed. Disavowing all intentions to aim at caricature, tne artist has wished to produce a positive transcript of tue every-day political life in America, and to cause art, for the first ume in this country, to step into the political ring. The Society of American Pamters in Water Colors may well feel proud of the interest wh.ch their exhibition at the National Academy of Design has excited. The superior works of Bellows, William Hart, Samuel Colman and Darley are greatly ad- mired by crowds of visitors. The Palette Club 1s actively continuing its pre- parations for decorating in a novel and artistic style the ballroom and supper rooms at Aliemanta Hall, in Sixteenth street, where their second Annual Festival will be celebrated on the 20th instant. The great Boston sale of pictures, statuary and antique furniture at the “chateau” of the late Lieu- tenant Deacon, on Boston Neck, has been the event of the week at “‘the Hub,” With few exceptions, how- ever, the prices ruled lower than might have been anticipated. For instance, the Fragonards, which by their rarity alone would command a high figure in Europe, were sold quite cheaply. It 1s said that Mr. Sypher, a New York buyer, secured o large share of this unique and valuable collection. The quaint old curiosity shop on Broadway, which re- places the memorable Alhambra of other days, will thus be considerably enriched in its store of ancient carved oak sideboards and inlaid tables, mirrors and clocks, Sévres porcelain, Gobelin tapestries, pic- tures, bronzes, busts, bas-reliefs and statuettes, formerly belonging to royal, princely and noble owners in Europe. We leave to philosophical specu- jators all theorizing as to the peculiarly fascinating claims of such articles upon the interest of rich pur- chasers among “the self-made men” in the demo- cratic soctety of our republic. ZOOLOGICAL EXHIBITION. List of Rare Animals at Central Park Museum. The Department of Public Parks has been busily engaged for some time past in improving the museum at Central Park. The building has been thoroughly renovated and great alterations have been made for the accommodation of visitors, also for the birds and animals. Several rare animals have been added :o the collection from India, Africa and other countries, as stated in the following list:— Indian elephant (elephas Indicus), from South In- dia, Guanaco (auchenta guanaco), @ native of Bolivia and Peru.

DODGING THE INTERNAL REVENUE. Brigham Drops Tithing and Takes to Donations. GENERAL NEWS. Saur Lake Orry, Jan. 28, 1871. The story of the cast-iron Sabine has reached the recesses of the Rocky Mountains, and has inciden- tally provoked an exposure here that perfectly casts the Rev, pabine into the shade. The organ of Brig- ham Young, forgetting momentarily the pitterness with which his satellites have treated the dissenters, sails into Sabine with a freedom that 1s perfectly re- freshing, and characterizes the reverend ol New York with “brutality” for his ungenerous and un- Christ-like conduct. The organ of the reformers, taking advantage of this public reprehension of a Christlan minister for his narrow sectariaoism, brings before the public AN ACT OF GREATER BRUTALITY here at home—the story of the remains of a ohild being refused the ordinary burial services in the Mormon Church because the grandfather of the in- nocent had dared to differ with Brigham Young. Fanaticism never deserved greater condemnatio: meanness never merited a more public exposure, and J furnish the paragraph to the HERALD, where It ‘will meet with its deserts, From the statement in the Tribune, which I have taken the trouble to have corroborated, # appears that a Mr. Brooks, a very respectable man living in the Seventh ward of this city, had openly aMliated witn the Reformers, ana had publicly attended the political meetings of A meri- can citizens opposed to the despotic rule of Brigham Young. Some weeks ago he and his son-in-law had gone into the cafons prospecting for silver mines, and during their absence the grandchild of Brooks died. In Utah there ts no interment, even over the criminal, without religious service; and, conform- ably to usage, the Bishop of the ward, only a few rods from the house where the child lay aead, was informed of the fact, of the time appointed for the interment, and of his presence being requested. On all such occasions the Bishop takes the direction of the funeral services, and relieves the parents and relatives of all attention in the time of their aflic- tion. A BISHOP REFUSES TO BURY A CHILD. In the nineteenth century, in this gieat free re- public of thought and action, will it be believed that Bishop Thomas McUleliand, of Salt Lake City, repre- senting the Church of Jesus Christ as inter- preted by Brigham Young, refused to be pre- sent, or to have a representative of any kind Present, at that child’s funeral, because | the grandfather of that child was a heretic to Brigham Young? The aMlicted motber and grand- mother of the dead child were both members of Brigham’s Church—God help them for the fact—and Yet so bitter is the hate of the priesthood’s vindictive. ness here that the two women were leit alone to bury the child. During its sickness tae neighbors, following their own natural instincts, had visited the affiicted mother and ministered to the little sur- ferer, and wouid have doubtiess been there among the mourners at the interment, but the word was given out that the Bishop and no one of the priest- hood would be there, and at the hour appointed for the last rites to the dead there was not a soul pre- sent but a “Gentile” and a few intimate friends who heard of the barbarism. Where ts Sabine alongside of Brigham Young's bishop? Nowhere! The name of Sabine ts henceforth immortalized, and every time a Holland is called from the mimic stage his name will spring into life, and with it “the little church round the corner.” Let this unrelenting bitterness of the Utah priesthood spring Into life every time that Brigham Young asks for admission into the Union, and never let a tongue be itstcned to in Con- gress that claims a favo: for the land that submits ‘TH SUPPLEMENT. been Iatd aside, and no | will this aacred re- cord be brought tuto the pulpit as the authority for squeezing tiihes out of the people, because Abraham on One oocasion paid tithes to Melchisedec.

The fiercely wild features of mining Itfe that carly characterized Montana, Idaho, Nevada and Colo- rado are not anticipated Lere—though more or less. of it 18 inevitable—as the population of Utah ts already settied in the steady habits of industry. The great evils of mining assoctations have been the absence of agricultural and = manu- facturing interests ceveloping at the same time. Here there are well cultivated tielas and products for more than the ordinary demands of the popwianon, The increase of ten or twenty thousand miners into the Territory would only benefit the whole agricultural population, fur- nishing a market for their extra supplies. ‘there are first class mechanics he.e from all parts of Burope and many irom the States, capable of doing any kind of labor, and artists of every profession. With the influx of men and woien of otuer faiths there will be social relations opening up that will choke down the peculiar institution, and thus peace: ably the barbarisin that has marked the past will aisappear.

POUGHKEEPSI#, Feb. 5, 187L All day yesterday and the night previous the wind blew a hurricane at all points on the Hudson, com- ing fromthe north and west. The mercury in the ; thermometer dropped fast and the cold increased hourly. Ice gatherers at all quarters suffered greatly, and had it nos been Saturday work would have beear shandoned. But they are not the only tollers on the ice on the Hudson in the winter time. They have cotorades who follow a different avocation—tnat of fishing, It 1s esthnated that over one thousand per- sons gain a lvelibsod oa the river'in the winter time by fistang. ‘Theirs 13 A LABORIOUS WORK. They watch the tides and fish accordingly. The “catch” sncindes white and yellow perch, striped bass and pickere!, which sell readily at from fifteem to twenty cents per pound, thns enabling the fisher- mon to make from five to ten dollara per day. In Haverstraw Bay on Saturday there were abows one haudred aod seventy fishermen at work with their nets. As before stated, it was a terrible day. They were scattered all over the river, braving the plercing, cutting wind, intent only upon ending up the week with a ‘catch’ full of profit and them going home to their famtlies, At half-past four B M. a cry of terror rang through the orowd, “THE ICE iS MOVING | Go for the shore !’’ shouted a burly but pale-face® fisherman, as he hurried along to the westward, and in an instant the wildest excitement ensued. ‘The tollers looked to the northward and observed clear water between the ice they were on and the solid frozen bridge north of Cruger’s. The entre field of ice, embracing the whole channel of Haver straw Bay, was on the move and carrying witht nearly two hundred human beings. Pikes and net were dropped, and then there wag A RUSM FOR SAFETY, while the air was filled with cries for help from the throats of the cut-off fishermen, who could be see rushing about upon the ice wildly, To ten minutes after both the western and easter shores were lined with villagers, who ran wildi about upon the beach, scarcely knowing what to do. Finally a tew of the more coot headed launched four boats and started oa a davgerous voyage of rescue. In the meantime scores of the fishermen had reache@ the edge of the ice nearest the shore, and, TRUSTING TO LUCK, plunged into the freezing water and reached terre arma in safety, covered from head two leot with @ thick coating of ice. It was then observed that ning were left and that the surging tide was swinging the field of ice far out into the river, the Hudson at the point named being extremely wide, Again the boats started to the rescue, but before they reache@ the frozen island five out of the nine were in the river struggiing franticly against death, Just a@ they were about giving up the boats reached them and they were dragged im completely exhausted, and two of them bad tainted, In an instant, almoss,. thelr clothing was FROZEN STIFF, and the rowers with great aiMculty kept them alive by constant aud vigorous rubbing until the shore Was reached, when thelr benumbed forms were handed over to willing hands aad carried to warm firesides, where they soon after showed signa of life, but the hands of all were badly frozen, ag were also their ears.

Could this acspot live on there would as- surealy be another Bartholomew massacre; tor the brutal vindictiveness that carries its bitterness to the infant dead would pever stop at trifies nor cayil at the means to an end, DODGING THE INTERNAL REVENUE. Dr. Taggart, the Assessor of Interual Revenue, has been faithful and unceasing in his labors in Tepresenting Utah nnanctaily as she really was, and in the proper discharge 01 his duties he has made no distinciion between citizens, For nearly a year he has battled with Brigham Young over the assess- ment of his iucome, and from the changes in the Department at Washington different decisions have been rendered, which have fipaily turned to the ad- vantage of the great High Pries!, Commissioner Delano had ordered Brigham to be assessed as any otner citizen, and haa Just before the change Irom his bureau ordered property to be seized by the Coilec- tor tor its payment; but the delegate of Brigham Young at Washington got the inside track with General Pleasouton immediately afier his instalia- tion, and agreed to the assessment of all Brigham’s income that was reproductive. AS @ principle it Would be unfair toassess the con- tributions to the Mormon Church for we support of the poor and tor Church purpo-es, and tis was the view presented to General Pieasonton by the dele- gate, ut that 1s not the fact. Brigham Young ren- ers no account of the millions tuat come into his hands. He has clerks on one side of his office who are called the clerks of the Trustee in Trust ; on the other side he has the clerks of Brigham Young. Brigham Young has books: the Trustee in Trust has books, but Brigham Young ts the Trustee in Trust aud the Trustee in Trust is Brigham Young. Now ou see it; now you don’t. About three years ago righam got a serious spell upon him ‘and was doubtful about longevity. He set to work to see how Brigham Young stood with the Trustee in Trust, and finding the former greatly indebted to the latier he ordered the clerk of tne latter to credit the former with something like @ million ‘for services ren- dered.” That was @ pleasant way of balancing things and accounts for the successtul occupation of the prophet in the nineteenth century. ‘The ancient prophets went about weeping and wailing over the wickedness of mankind, and knew considerable of dust and ashes, sackcloth and all that kind of thing, but Brigham ha: learned more excellent way.” Brigham has a better under- standing of the wants of his age than elther to go wandering in sieep's skins, goats’ skins or dwelling 1n caves of the mountains, He believes in New York Brewster carriages, best horses and silver-mounted harness, and wherever he travels he deems it not superfluous to have his lady love travel with him and share his triais and attlictions for the Gospel’s sake, General Pleasonton has been hoodwinked into the pleasant conclusion that Brigham’s style and expenses are covered by donations to tne poor. Good for Pieasonton! Better for Brignam | TITHING TO BE CALLED DONATIONS. ‘The whole recora of Brigham Young, from the | day he assumed the guidance of the Mormons until this hour, nas been that of the iron hand. The Tabernacle has resounded with the cry, “Bring in your uthing, bring in your tithing,” and the Mor- mon journals abound with his instructions to the Bishops to “cut off? all who would not pay their tithing. There are hundreds of cases where men have been ‘cut of” from the Church because they would not pay their tithing when they actually had not enough to give thetr famuites the commonest necessaries of life. Brigham Young's tithing prin- ciple ts @ feariul thing. Not the contribution of a man’s abundance, but a tenth of all he earns. For the sake of round numbers, say that a man earns a thousand dollars @ year. His family consists of one or mere wives—two, three, four or five— children from five to thirty—a very moderate calculation. That man would doubtless need his whole thousand dollars. Doubdtiess. Brigham requires of him one hundred dollars and leaves him nine hundred dollars, when, in all Pine he had not with it all sufficient to get shoes for his children. This, General Pleagonton nas been led to believe, Was @ contribution for Church purposes.

But the end is not cod ing, however, i og lle lished. Through ful Deralatence Of Dr. Taggart the Bible bas ternal Revent One thi the fairhi mittee on Foreign Relations, with an amendment making it unlaw/ul for two or more cable compa- nies to consolidate or unite their interest. This amendment, if adopted, would seem to be a direct attack upon ap important interest intimately con- nected with commerce and damaging to the produc- tive interest of the United States. If the propesed jaw could be extended to other portions of the world besides that of the United States it would be most unwise, because it would in effect increase the cost of transmission; but to shut up the United States and leave the balance of the world free to consolidate telegraph lines or make a union of interest, and thus largely reduce the cest by @ reduction of expenses, 1s giving to the world commercially great advantages over the United States. This fact can be illustrated practi- cally to the understanding of all who seek the right. It cannet ba denied that one company, wita the facility to do the business between Europe and America, can do so at a less expense than two com- panies, because two companies with two separate organizations cost in expense twice as much as the one, ‘rhis was illustrated on the completion of the French cable. Both companies adopted a tariff for ten words of $7 50. This was unprotitable, and the companies, to save themselves from ruin, enterea into an agreement for a union of interest, working under one organization and saving a large outlay in expense. In the case of the twocables no addi- tional charge was made for the transiission of the despatches, although the tariff of $7 50, ruinous under two organizations, witha doubie set of vifices, clerks, Ofticiuls, &c., under the new arrangement are saved from ruin, yet without any provision to provide new cabies when the present oues are worn out or become disabled. since the new arrange- ment the shareholders have svarcely received in dividends a sum sufficient to pay seven per cent interest on the new stock represeuting the two Eng- lish and ove French cabie, the stock of tne old Atlantic cable being neariy Wiped out and buried ta the vcean deep, It is a remurkable tact, notwith- standing the impression to the contrary, that neither cable has earned in any ove year a sum above expenses sufficient to have paid Jor a policy of insurauce to protect the sharenolders against loss in case ef inability by breakage or otherwise to transmit messages, and yet the cry comes trom the press and the pubiie for more cables and reduced rates. ‘the destruction by the adoption of unwise laws to all telegraphic mterest connecting Europe with the Cnlied States is @ smal matter as com- ared with tue great agricultural interest of the Jnited States. In order to compete suceessiully with the world we must have equal facilities, not only in the transportation of our crops, but in the trans- inission of orders to buy and sell. The merchant in Liverpool wants facilities to buy grain, beef, pork, and cotton tn New York, the same that exist be- tween Liverpool aud the ports on the shores of the Baltic and Biack Sea. The merchant, when he gives his order, wants to know the price, and if nis order is filled he wants to know the snip and her day of sailing. When he is master of his situation and ready te sell the cargo afloat to the first customer coming into his counting room, this facilitates basi ness. The United States want telegraph factlities, and the people are ready and willing for a tariff that will secure to them those facilities, and that on terms of reciprocity between the cable companies and those using them, Sureiy Vongress does not deem it the part of wisdom to throw obstacles in the Way of ocean cables and the commerce of the Uvited States, by depriving those important interests of the privilege of avatiing themseives of the advantages presented by consolidation, thus largely reducing Ueir working expenses, by which means they are enabled to reduce their charges to tie public. Tue railroads are leasing and consolidating in order to redyce expenses. The Western Union Telegraph have le and consolidated with other companies until they have absorbed almost tie eutire tele. graph interest in the country, and as the work of Consolidation bas gone on ihe iariif to the public has been reduced, and the lines brought into a condition of perfection unequalled in any part of the werld.
