Our telegraphic advices from Mor- mondow confir former reports touching Brigham Young’s cntical condition, and his probable early | demise. Under the caption of Tom | Fiteh's prophecy, the Salt Lake | Tribune of the 17th makes the fol- lowing statement about Brigham's mental and physical decrepitude : *During his recent visit to this city, Tom Fitch called to see his for- mer client, Brigham Young; and before leaving for Nevada, related | to many acqualntances his last im- pressions of the situation at the Lion House. Mr. Fiteh asserts that the Prophet has entered that mental condition saxd to be located between | idiocy and second childhood, and pledges his honor on the promise that within thirty days the head of the Church will have passed beyond the confines of mortality. Tom was disappointed in finding his old ben- efactor leaning over the battlements of life, cheerless, gloomy and full of remorse, with no will to lead, uo falth in God or man, but staring vaecantly out toward the mountains of wittle Cottonwood ; oceasionolly drivelling incoherent | sentences, such as, ¢ there the Gen- | tiles are digging up my eternal | riches;” adding, after a pause, “T used to send men to hell across lots for this, and ‘PIl do it agam.” So are the last days of the greedy, ava- | ricious impostor described by one | who used to be his almouer of | “wagon greese” in paimier times, | and Tom Fiteh says the Kingdom | of God is rapidly going to the | gevil.” name and class.

Tt is generally high above the river, and forms a gradual slope from the table lands to the river on both sides. There is more timber on the river here than above, espe- cially at the mouth of Turkey Creek. About four miles farther down the stream is the newly laid ot town of Caldwell. As yet there is only a depot, grain warehouse, one resi- dence and one store. W. N. Rogers, the social proprietor of the latter, attends to the postoffice, and is also railroad agent. Mr. Rogers being one of the early settlers, had thechoice of land when he came to the county; his farm is adjacent to the town site,near which he has two brothers, one of whom has on his farm as good a mill site as can be found on the stream. The stream has a good Tock bot- tom, and is very close to the rail- road. The owner proposes to do- nate to any one who will builda good mill there, the mill site, with five acres of ground. This stream of water hes a supply of water suffi- clent for six run of burrs the year round, and is but six miles from Beatrice, and eight from De Witt. Everything Sppesrs tobe lively here and business is good. Very little wheat s now brought to market, as the prices are too low. I obsarve many noted changes in business firms, and much public and private improvement since my last visit here. Several good bulldings have been erected. Messrs. Griggs, Webb & Lacell, are about completing their new stone block, on the corner of Court and Fifth streets. The first story is to be occupied by their bank, N. K. Griggs’ office and store rooms. When completed it will be by far the best and most desirable building in the city. Messrs. Hinkley & Jackson have ghout completed their new urick building, near the corner of Fifth and Court streets, to be og- cupled with their drug store. W. P. Hess has recently built a good, substantlal frame building, on the coraer of Third and Court streets, which he occupies asa hotel, and one of the most central located in the eity, Mr. Hess, the gentle- manly proprietor, is a good man- ager, keeping everything in its place and ' furnishing first-olass fare at second-class rates. He has a good translent custom and his house usu- ally s quite full, The mew iron bridge 1s being | pushed forward as rapidly as possi- ble. Itisto be at the foot of Court street, a short distance above the | mitl dam. The span will be near two hundred feet long. It will be completed in November. When finished it will add much to the ap- pearance of the city, and will bea great convenience to the citizens on the west side. The hotels are all well patronized and appear to be prosperous. There are four—the Pacific, Emory, Hess and Grange Home. There are three livery stables. Mr. Eli Oross, formerly from Crete, has the largest in the town, with good stock and good rigs. Charley Emory, one of the early settlers, also has a good stable, but not quite so large. Messrs. Eugene Mack and John Dunbarr keep a liveryat the Grange House. The town is steadily improving, and substantial buildings are con- stantly being erected. The church- es are numerous and well attended. The schools are highly creditable to the city, and largely attended. Bearice has one of the best stone jails In the country. Itnow hasfive inmates, two from Saline county, and one from Jefferson county. Pruett, the murderer of R, 0. Whit- aker, in_Jefferson gounty, was brought here for safe keeping, to remain until the May term of court, when he will be taken back to Jef- ferson county. Heis a very young looking man, appears rather awk- ward and seems discontented He says there were three others con- nected with the murder, but as yet has given no names. The senti- ment s very bitter towardsthe mur- derer here, no sympathy whatever being manifested in his favor. Cir- cumstantial evidence points so di- rect to his action that it appears as though his doom was sealed for at least a term of years. Our old time friend “Pap, as every one calls him, still presides at the postoffice. He has a kind word for all and a Joke for the humorous, keeps a good supply of books and stationery, and is the noted newspa- - | per man. He supplies any papers and magazines that are wanted. In brief I gan speak a good word for this young city and its prosperi- ty. On'my first visit here, in 1867, it was a mere town on paper, with a vast unoccupied space in its vicini- ty, excepting here and there an_oc- casional dug out or log cabin: Now elegant mansjons and comfortable dwellings, with good county build- ings and numerous other improve- ments, evinge its recent prosperity and wonderful progress, (Correspondence of the BEE.)

[Omaha Correspondence of the North Platte T Enterprise.| Once more Omaha voted on a proposition to have water works, and once more has decided not to have them. The vote was nearly the required two-thirds in favor. The vote stood agalust water works, 1,027; for water works, 1,680, lack- ing but 120 of the n major- ity. By many of our citizens this result is deemed unfortunate, and so it is. Strong Influences were brought to bear against this vote by some of our leading capi- talists who have no respect, no thoughts for the future of Omaha, but rather for the immediate pre- sent, while their almighty dollars are accumulating from high rents and low wages. Theirefforts have roven successiul, and we will drop ok into ourslow progression. The BeE has made an able discussion of this question, and had the other pa- pers been equally liberal in their news, Omaha would to-day be re- Joleing in the near prospect of water- works—that which in every city possessing them 1s the greatest stim- ulus to all inaustries. whether they belong to our Soclety or not. 1his organization Hoops are still in fashion in Du- bugue, A eooper there recently bar- relled up his scolding wite, and then Burs out 1 teros, and promised oul ree, and pro; to Tofortm. g | jury of twelve cross-eyed men, and PUNGENTISTIC. 3 1 If thine enemy offend thee, pub- | lish & card.

A soldier writing to the New York Herald desires to know the whereabouts of his uncle. Several pawnbrokers have replied to the ad- vertisement. Siuce the theory was propounded that wearing ear-rings produces deafness, married men in various sections of the country are cou ering the expediency of having their ears bored. A New Hampshire liquor dealer has posted up in his shop, “Children under 10 years of age will not be al- lowed to get drunk on these premi ses unless accompanied by therr pa- rents.” A Yankee editor throws up the sponge with the remark that “it don’t pay torun a paper in a town where business men read almanacs and pick their teeth with the tail of a herring.” Mobile bas an organized associa- tion of young gentlemen called, “Cow-bello-gians ” For amuse- ment they ring bells in front of pri- vate residences until the serenaders are asked in for refreshments. The young lady of Milwaukee whose father collected $500 of a den- tlst for kissing her, stole the money from her parent and used it all upin bribing the tooth-jerker to iss her some more. _ The order obliging the New York policemen to wear their uniforms at all times, rather perplexes the blue coats. Oneof’em puton aswallow- tail coat to go to his daughter’s wed- ding, the other night, and was dis- missed from the force. We never stand by when a wo- man enters a hardware store, shuts her teeth together, and inquires the price of “them ’erp iron hanaled rolling-pins,” without feeling there is rest beyond the grave for her hus- band, An exclted railway man who shoats into the cars the name of the station, and who hears a great deal of complaint because the names are called indistinetly, wants to know it the public expects tenors at $40 a month, Old John Robinson, the circus man, wants to go to Congress, but his friends are trying to preventhim from taking the downward step which must surely destroy all the reputation he now possesses.

She has but to marry a man with a bar- rel of whisky and a hogshead of su- gar to have a mint-julep fifteen or fwenty times a day for the rest of her hife, About this time the young man unpacks his winter overcoat,spreads it out on the bed before him, gathers up, one by one, the little rolls of cot- ton that irregularly dot its surface, and, holding it close to the light, comes to_the conclusion that cam- phor is a delusion and tobacco itself a'snare. A correspondent warts to know how to break a cow that is afraid of 8 woman. Wehaven’t thoughtsuf- ficlently on_the subject to give him an answer, but in New Jersey, when a cow is afraid of & woman, she quiets the animal by simply hiding her back bair under the milk pail. The Detrolt Free Presssays: “An Ohlo woman worked at odd times for nine years to plece a bed quilt containing ever 5o many pieces, and then her husband seized it to blank- et his mule, and said it saved him paylng out six shillings for an army blanket.” A mere hint at what aught to be done with that rascally husband would freeze your young blood wilh horror. “Well, doctor,” said a_chap just from the dentist’s chair, “how much do youax for the Job? Guy! butyou did it quick, though!” My terms,” replied the dentist, “are one dollar.”” “A dollar for a half minit's work! one dollar—thunder! Why, a doc- tor down tlour plage drawed & tooth for me two years ago, and it took him two hours. He dragged me all around theroom, and lost his grip half a dozen times. I never seed such hard work. And he only charged me twenty-five cents.
