BLOOD ATONEMENT. —_--+—__—_ The Attempt to Murder the Herald’s Correspondent at Salt Lake. AN INFORMAL INQUIRY. An Undoubted Result ‘of the Creed of Assassination. THE FOUL-SPOKEN MORMON PRESS —e———— Wo find in the Salt Luke Zribune of the 2d of June the following account of what is called an ‘“informal’’ \nvestigation of the uttacks upon the HiKaLn’s cor- respondent, It ig a littie curious to soe that ine city Buthorities—Mormons—satisfy themselves with an “informal” inquiry. Their object appears tv have been © throw doubt on the statements of our correspond- ent; and the Mormon aewspapera—the Salt Luke Herald and News—make haste, we notice, to accuse him of druckenness, They made the common mistake of going into details, and asserted that Dr. Thompson had treated bim tor delirium tremens, whereupon Dr, Thompson replies ina pudlication in the Salt Lake Tribune with a fat contradiction, The 'ribune say A LYING CHARGE SuT AT REST. “De Thompson desires us to say that the statement made bythe Herald tha. ho treated Mr. Stilison tor deliridm tremens was unauthorized by him, When Called 9 treat Lim be found him laboring under ner- jon and treated him accordingly.” *” The following is the account of the “informal inves- Ugation” in the Salt Lake 7'ribune of Juno The Mormon newspupers havo been clamoring for an investigation into tho past crimes and practices of the Mormon Ghurch, and very opportunely the New York Hexapp bus sont a commissioner to Utuh to ex- ‘amine the record and roport what facts he discovers fearlessly and impartially. Mr. Jerome B. Stilison is the gentleman deputed to pertorm this disagreeable task, and the revelations made by. this jour- Qulisy (us our readers are already aware) have beon 80 damaging that the parties who were clamoring for an investigation bave already bad a surfeit of tt. Two attempts have been mado on the New York journalist's lite—the first by an avans- sin who fired upon him on Saturday night as he was @riving home from Camp Douglas, along Brigham Street, and the second in his own room in the Walker House, by the same man, it is supposed, who dealt ‘Bim @ violent blow on the breast with a knite, LIBELS OF THK MORMON PRESS. This bad a bad lvok, ag it revives the recollection of former days in Utah when obnoxious individuals were secretly put out of the way to prevent them doing further mischicl The Jerald, @ Priest bound, blood atoning sheet, instantly came to the rescuc,. and a villanous article, published the morning following the stabbing attorppt, pronounced it a put up job on the part ot the Nsw York HxkaLp reporter to injure the Mormons and Xeep up a false sensation. To prove the truth of this charge Mayor Little addressed a note to Mr. Stilison to request that gentleman to submit to a public ex- Amination by the City Attorney, ‘This proceeding struck Mr, Stillson as somewhat novel, and led him to Qvestion in his own mind whether bo was a vassal or a peer. First to have bis life twice attempted while in the proper performance of his duty, and then to have bis word questioned and his character assuiled. How- ever, ou the counsel of his frieuds he consented to ens dure the investigation, und about hall-past two o'clock he entered tho parlor of the Walker House, where fully one hundred persons were esaembled, A STKANGE PROCEEDING, Un motion of Colonel Jonus Mayor Little was ap- pointed chairman of the meeting and Mr, Byron arco, ot the Salt Lake Herald, and Mr. John ©, Young, of the Tribune, wero chosen secretaries, Mr, O, J. Hollister inquired of Mayor Liitio if he was acting us ex officio justice of the peace, in his official capacity, or merely as president of an informal citi+ zens’ meeting. ‘His Honor said he was presiding over an informal meeting. Ho had como with the city police to inves- tigate this alleged attempt to assasninate. John Nicholson, reporter of the News, moved the Oppointment of G. F. Gibbs, Brigham Young’s private yecretary, as stenographic reporter of the mecting, Mr. Stillson hereupon enterod the room accompa. nied by Mr. R. N. Baskin and some other friends, Being introduced to Mayor Little, ho was invited to take a seat, and Mr, C. W. Stayner administered the oath, Being requested by City Attorney Rawlins to make his statement, the witness said he regarded this aa an informal meeting ond the proceedings extra judicial, Ho was willing to make a statement, but he was not feeling well, aud did not want to be subjected to @ long ordeal, MR, STILLSON’S STATEMENT, Tho witness then @ detailed nurrative of the two attempts mado to assassinate him. The first one on Saturday night last, while returning trom Cawp Douglas, about eleven o'clock. Driving along Eust Temple (Brigham) strectin a carriage and pair, as he was approaching Brigham Youug’s residence, on passing a street (Pine) a man camo from behind a tree about fitty feet distant, and fired a shot trom a re- volver at him. ‘The horses wore going fast at the Ume and the shot missed its mark. Ho reined up as Bpecdily as porsible, turned the horses, which was the work of some little time, as he had to cross a street car track to the lower side of the road, and then drivo up ab ombankment. On returning to the street corner the agsassin was out of sight. Witness described bin asa large man; he could sce his features distinctly, as the full moon Was shining brightly. 9mR SECOND ATTEMPT. ‘The secund attempt was made in his own room tho day precoding (Thureday). He stated that whilo sit- “ting alone in his room correcting some manuscripts writton by bis amanuensis tho evening belore a knock cume to the door, Had heard no approuching foot- steps, Invited the visitor iz, and roso to receive him, The door opened aud @ stranger enterod Witness grasped the back of his chair with his leit hand, The ‘man held bis hat and a folded paper in his left hand, which he rested on tho knob of the door. Ho inquired ot witnoss if be was Mr. Stilison, Witness said that was bis name. “Correspondent of the New York Heratp?’’ no further queried. Witness nodded assent. “‘Lbave an affidavit here which 1 think you wil be in- terested in,”’ Ho heroupon advanced into the room to deliver it, Suddenly be struck wituess a violent blow in the left breast, saying at the time, ake that, you handsome son of a b—h!” Witness fell at tho blow betweon the table and his bed. Arose in a fow seconds, took a revolver irow his table drawer und rushed into the corridor in pursuit of bis agsaiiant, but tho man was out of sight THK ASNASSIN DESCHIDED, Ip answer to questions witness said his fuprossion was that he was struck withashort knife, His as- talant had the manners of « gentieman and was weil dressed. Had his right band concenied in bis breast. Was shot ut between ten and eleven o'clock. Keing asked to dosoribe the man, a description of the man was objected to by somo attorneys in the meeting. Witness suid ho woe willing to reply fully to any ques- tion that might be asked him. A lenginy devate en- sued, and the sense of the mecting was in favor of a description being given. Witness deseribed biw as a iarge, woll drosacd man, and, on his oponing the door, was Impressed with his modest, decent demeanor, Ho v NEW appeared in from five to eight minutes, aud he talked the matter over with them, The assassid lett the room directly after striking the blow; was quite badly struck; it knocked the wind outof him; does not know what direction the man took. TUB MORMON #LANDRKERS REBUKED, Hero the examination closed, and Mr, Stilison volun- teered a few remarks, Mayor Little objected to beur- ing them, but the witness persisted. He siid he had, at the request of His Honor, detatled two cowardly at- tempts upon bis Ile, He did not charge them upon the Mormons; he bad no desire to assail any class of people. Had worked diligently and conscientiously. Had gone to the southern purt of the Territory to hear the statement of tho President of the Church, and while travelling through the soutlements had talked to many people and closcly studied their condition, Ho bad sent the result of®& portion of his investiga- Mons to the journal he represented, and in his letters he had been constrained to say some things which have proved disagreeable to the mombers of tho Latter Day Church. He had no animus in this—had no desire or disposition to say anything tnimical to the people of Utah, And in his future writings he should be very carcful not to imitate the example set him by some of the uewspapors here. He referred more particularly toa very harsh, unjust and impolitic articte which had appeared in the Salt Lake Herald of that morning. It was not written tn tho interest of public morality or truth, Whether tho article had been dictated or whether it was the result | of the teachings of the Church ke would not attempt tosay. But, without regard to intimidation or assault, | ho shoula continue to perform his duty, and such mendacious and scurrilous attacks upon his personal charactor would not have any cflect in turning him from his labors, MINE HOST'S STATEMENT, Major G, 8. Erb, lessee of the Walker House, next took the stand andquito fully corroborated Mr. Stil- son’s statement, Witness visited bim five minutes atier the assault was made, found him lying on his bed and somewhat excited, He tuld the story then exactly as he has now told It on the witness stand. The witness was examined quite at length im regard to the fire cs- coupe. This was in close proximity to Mr. Stilison’s room, but the trap door on the second floor wus locked to prevent persons gaining clandestine accoss to the hotel fromthe yard, He, with three otbers, had ex- amined the yard two or threo hours alter the attempt was made, but tound no tracks on the ground. A great part of the afternoon was devotod to tho fire eseapo question; but, as there aro a dozen exits from the es- cupe, the quest did not roveal much ligit, Mr, Stilison showed witness his perforated clothing and his broast. He noticed a red spot ou the skin which seemed fresh'y done, Only a fow servants of the houso were on duty atthe time. Strangers going through the office are apt vo be noticed and called buck, here is auother en- trance through which many visitors pass, Mr. W. S, McCornick examined the yard with Mr. Erb, but found uo tracks, Mr. David Davidson said he hves in the Ninth ward, near the schoolhouse, and heard a gun shot on Sunday night toward midnight; thought it came from thedirec- tion of the City Hall, He mentioned the names of two others who also heard the report. (The witness thought no more of the incident until he heard Mr. Stilison’s case discussed, and was not sure whother he heard the roporton Saturday or Sunday night, but felt pretty gure it was Sunday night.) TRE DOCTOR'S CORROBORATION. Dr. Hamilton was called jn to examine Mr. Stillson’s injury. Found an abrasion of the skin just below the the spot was threo-fourths of an inch long and ball that width; the skin was tn o disturbed condition, whish bad beem caused by a blunt instrument through @ thin covering, such asasbirt The Doctor described the perforations im the clothing. The injury in tho breast was not un incised wound; it bore evidence of the violenco of the blow or of a glancing pressure, Witness belicved that the pressure of the buckle mignt have inflicted Just such a wound. IMPORTANT TESTIMONY. Throo sewing gitls wero next sworn, They wero sitting im the matn corridor on the third floor, and could see atl who approached Mr. Stilison’s room, Two ot them were quite positive that the bellboy, Mr. Erb and Murshal Nelson were the ouly persons who passed that way; the third ope,, Joanna Christenzen, saw a tall man, with-a vlack coat, go In the direction of tho room halfan hour before Mr. Erb came up staira, Dr. Winslow had examined Mr. Stillsou’s breast that Morning; the contused spot bad increased to halt a dollur in size aud there wag some discoloration, This witness fully corroborated Dr, Hamilton’s testimony. Here the taformal investigation closed. THR MORMON ANINUS. The following are the editorial remarks of the samo Journal on the subject :— Brigham’s Heraid showed {te Mountain Meadows teeth yesterday, and gloated over the attempted assus- sination of Mr. Stillson, Tho elders who run that rot- ton outfit believe in blood atonement. They condemn the victim and excuse the assassin. Those who read the Salt Lake Herald's tirade yester- marking that 1t badn’t a word {n condemnation of his would-bo assassin. The reason of this is plain. The of blood atonement, Mr, Stillson being obnoxious to the Mormon priesthood they gloated over the das- tardly attempt to assagsinato him. MISSISSIPPI AND MORMONDOM COMPARED— HELOD, THE CHILD SLAYER, EMULATET. [From the Loulsvilio Commercial) Mississippi 18 working industrivusly, on the samo plane with the Mormon Church, to produco a healthy state of political unification within her borders, and 80 far with very bappy results, ber democratic cii- zens already having a republican dead roll tar excecd- ing the Gentile dead roll of their Mormon breturen, Nay, the Mississippiang, in their zeal tor the estab- Hshment of political orthodoxy, imitate the example of that energetic ruler, King Herod, who was so doter- mined to repress all radical revolutionary movements in Judea that he had a Jarge number of chilurea putto death, This day of forgiveness, of reconciliation, graves of the young girl, Chisholm, und her litue brother, who were shot down in the presenco of their parents by the Mississippi supporters of Governor Stono and Governor Tilden, not for vengeance, butibat the breed of pestilent republicans might be destroyed and tho political salvation Mississippi be secured for all time, The dove coos softly from her perch in the boughs of the mugnolias of Mississippi; myriles and forget-me-nots lie thickly on the graves of the blue and tho gray, and tho millennium approaches, floshing the sky with tremulous shaits of auroral splendor, and the central figures of all this scene of tenderness and glory are Brigham Young and Govor- nor Stone, Noble pair of brothers! Colaborers in tho same great work of unification! Mississippi and Utah are tho exemplars, the pertect flower and ripened fruit of American civilisation, and the twin roses of millonulat expectancy, THE PASENT FACT OF MOLMON BLOODIHIRSII~ NESS. {From the Potersburg Indox.} The attompt of some of the Journalistic rivals of the Naw York Hexatp to sneer away tho inurderoas ate tewpt recently uiado va the life of its correspondent in Sait Lake City are in very bad taste and serve no purpose but that of delaying avd embarrassing the punishment of the assassios. The fact that the Mormon commanity, ander Brigham Young, is an organized body of fanatics prepared to commit any excess in the vame of rehgion, aud to practice any eruelty nnd re- vonge on the enemies of their system, rests on authority much more ancicnt than the testimony of Mr, Siillson, and fully as well worthy of crodit. THE DBLOODS-HANDED DANITES AND ‘THEIR wore asiouch bat, a black coat, a dark necktio and exposed a full shirt front, The lower part of his drese | witness could not deseribe, Had black hair and impe+ rial, but no whiskers or beard, Hesembied the man who fired at witness, but was differently «/ersod; bad no doubt be waa tho same man, Thinks bis ago was over forty. MIRACULOUS KSCAPR. ‘Witness then described the outure of the stab, It gat through his vest (he wns sitting in bis shirt sleeves), through two photographs on stil boarus. a wik- handkerchief was perforated in ball @ dozen places, the buckle of bis suspender was vent, and the suspender cut through, A slight scratch was niso in. fitctod upon the body. The lorcd of the blow was ex. pended upon the buckie; there was a mero abrasion of the skin—a bruise more than a cut, The perforation was on tho loft side, almost ver the heart.

[From the Petersburg Index. } The Danites, notwithstanding their boasted readi- hess to assagsinate the so-called Gentiles—tho oppo- nents of polyzamy and the rue of the suinis; notwith- standing the authenticated and numerous instances of murder and violenco by their bloody hands—appear to have enjoyed us sweet a security in tho Mormon bosom as if they were a benevolent association, whose spirit wus that of charity and whose devices were those of nlmsdeod, Natarally enoagh this vag uubroken im- Mupity bas titled the bigots of the luuer day dispensa- tion with the ignorant impression that they aro above the jaw, They thik they are u law unio thowseives, as indeed they have been permitted, under the too lax administiation of thy government, to become and re- im, They defy tho authority of tho United States ‘pols, aud talk ag glbly of arming and taking the eid left nipple; he complained of tendernoss and soreness; | day morning againat Mr. Stilison could not help re- | Herald is Brighum’s organ, dud is, therefore, in favor | of flower strewlpg, Of singing pretty songs about the | Diue and the gray; but not a flower is cast on tho fresh | YORK HERAL whenover the £ or Coggress {hreateng to en- force the peace among them ag it they wero tutbaued Turks haughtily responding to the monaced invasion of the Czar of Russia, THE WHINE OF THE CULPRITS, [From the Deseret News.) The “Mormon” people are not one bit moro dis- posed to uprising, insurrection or rebellion now than they wore last yoar, or five years ayo, or ten years 880, or tifteen years aga They have no more thought now of such things than they have had for all those Years and more. The seusation stories to the contrary are wholly and entirely fulse from beginning to end, There never was a people more desirous of peace shan the “Mormons” are at this time and all the time, If any people desire war it 18 those very people who raise up the excitement about such things, ‘The “Mor- mons” aro pre-eminently a people of peace, but thetr unscrupuious enemies are always taiking of war and trouble, and orp always trying to excite sucn things and bring them about. Such vicious characters will be pubnicly aad generally known in their true colors after a while, and them they will bo as generally de- spised and devested, t ANY MEANS OF EXTIRPAIING MORMONISM” ; LEGITIMATE. {From the Petersburg Index.) Why the saints a till permitted to carry so bigh and deflant a head passes our comprehension, We believe if any proposition could be advanced which would elicit univereal approval from all clasees of People in the United States, whatever their politics and tucir section, 1t would be one in favor of making tie Mormous behave themselves and show ao just regard for the lives and rights of tho so-called “Gentiles.” If the foul breed of adulterers and po- lygamists could bo wiped out entirely, civilization would be a great gainer; but since that may not be, they ought to be forced to abstain from the pastime of assassination to which they seem still addicted, It Young himself, the hoary reprobate, could be put on trial and made to answer for the long catalogue of crime with which bis careor is associated, tho nest of vipers would be effectually wiped out, for no mau will survive him with the same powers of willand the same genius of organization and authority, We cannot pre- tend to suy which would bo the best and surest way for the removal of the plagvo spot; but the civilized world will agree that some steps ought to be taken looking to an end which all decent people so ardently desire, Tne President himeelf would not be stooping beneath the high diguity of the position should he tn- D, FRIDAY, JUNE 8, 1877.—TRIPLE SHEET. ‘AMERICAN JOCKEY CLUB.

A platform had been erected op the portico, und at a quarter before nine Bernstein’s orchestra struck up a march, during which two students, in their academic gowns and mortarboard caps, ascended the platiorm, ‘These were Mr. W.
