Mormon News.

Wc comloiisc tho following interesting items of tho doings and sayings of tho Salt Luke Saints, from the news columns o$ the Cleveland Herald. By some accident, our St. Louis papers which we presume Jibntainodtli^ iirst announcement, did not reach us. 4$

The great wall which is to surround the Mormon Great Salt Lake City is about five-sixths completed.

By a letter from a Missionary Mormon in tile Sandwich Islands, written to the Deseret News, it seems that on lie island of Honolulu, four hundred persons have been converted to Mormonism alike number on Ivamvai,and two hundred in iawoii in the space of two months. "Recently the Postmaster,«, Mr. Willard Biclxards died, and the clergyman officiating at his funeral made the following queer pvavcr. It sounds odd to us:— 'Bless the widows of thy servant Willard, who are (failed to part with a dear and beloved companion. Inspire them with the power of the Holy ^liost, and •wisdom to bear with puj,icnce'and resignation, the trials they are called to encounter, and io live in such a manner as to prepare them to enjoy his society in the possession of thrones, 'principalities and powers in the cclestial world.'

President Brigbam Young says, in reforencdro the statement, he had said that 'Old Zaehary Taylor was dead and in hell 'and he was glad of it,' that 'he never tlio't ''V it till he heard Brocchus say in the Old

Bowery' butstill ha& no doubt but that is the disposition made of the General, lie says that 'all the wicker! are turned into hell with those who forget God, but that lie did not suppose thatfTaylor could be classed with those who forgvt God, lor lie never knew anthing about him.

Young seems to have made up his mind that Tierce don't want to turn him out of his Governship, and couldn't if he wanted to. He says:

I have no fears whatever of I rankliii ^Pierce excusing me from office, and say that another man shall be the Governor oi this Territoiv.

We have not. a territorial government, and I am and will be the Governor, and no power can hinder it until the Lord Almighty savs 'Brighani you need not be Governor any longer,, and then I am willing to yield to another.

The President Young at the same moling nominated Beinheisel, the present delegate, and carried it, though it was Sunday, \iy a unanimous vote. He says in reter.«inee to that individual:

He (our delegate) thought all the cats and kittens were let out ot the bag, when vBro. Pratt, went back last Fall and published the revelation oonecrning the plurality of wives—it was thought there was no other cat to let out but allow me to tell you, elders of Israel and delegates to Congress, vou may expect an'eternity ot cats, that have net yet escape I irom the bag.—,

For if there is not one thing, there will always be another. We don't remember to have scon the following particulars of Fremont's suffering 1-eforc, though we have seen the general statement of the privations an I dangers he encountered and escape !. '•!. John C. Fremont, with nine white •nun and twelve Deleware Indians, arrived in Parowan in a state of starvation one of his men had fallen dead from his horse tliedav previous, and several more must inevitahlv have shared his fate had they not had siuvor that day. They reported th it thev had eaten 27 broken-down animals that when a horse or mule could not go further it was killed an I divided out, giving one-lnJf to the Delaware- and th.' other to Colonel and his TTVMI the hide was cut in pieces and cast lots for. Atter the bones had been made into son]), they were burned, and carried along by the men for luncheon. Tin entrails were shaken and then male into soup, together with the feet and eyes, thus using up the whole mule. They stated that t.li»v had travlc^d forty-five days living on this kind ot lair.

Where did it Come From

The Ohio papers are having their own fun, over the birth of a child in tlie State Penitentiary recently. The Enquirer says:

There is now confined in the Ohio Penitentiary an individual of tender age, ^ho never was sentenced by a court, never was before a legal body, never was guilty of a crime, is known to be innocent of all the offences which are punishable by human laws, and yet is restrained of liberty! To^ keep down indignation, probably, no name "is given in the Warden's report of the person thus kept in confinement, bat that \vill not avail—humanity at least, is about, to interfere, if Wardens, deputies and guards do not the poor creature, by legal testimony, can successfully plead the 'baiy act.'^

The Logan Co. Gazette says: 'There is a cloud upon its genealogy.— Its pedigree is not ascertained with the precision which is desirable." no is ITS PA"?' is one of those questions to which no satisfactory response has been made

There has already been

a good deal of conjecture and surmise. The hypothesis that the State of Ohio is the paternal.ancestor of the babe, is that most generally received but to this we beg leave to record our dissent, and at the same time ask indulgence while wc give our reason.— The rhetorical figure-sof personification has long assigned the State to the feminine gender. |fcLence wc speak of her greatness, and of the people of the State as her children. Therefore, the paternity assumed, is a physiological impossibility. The State of Oil if)' is upt and cannot be its/Pa. Ai'in/r •.must look elsewhere in search of his fatiler.'

IJOITKAEOKR.^—Colonel Vaughan says, that within tlie:J)ounds,of his Agency, where the American Fur Company are operating andhradillg with the Indians, the number of buffaloes killed .anually%5 not short of 400,000. Hotook much pains to procure the best information on the?,subject, and his estimate ..cannot be very incorrect. Not less than 100,0f)0 robes have been shipped within his Agency during the last year.— One hundred and fifty thousand of those animals arc destroyed, and thousands of hides are used by the Indians to make their lodges—largo numbers*of buffaloes are fro?en are starved to death in the snow banks, and many arc drowned by crossing the

jT.^"A most bcatiful and singular sight was presented on the lake yesterday afternoon about six o'clock. A dark cloud, which sailors would term 'a heavy bank',' seemed directly below the sun. On the lower margin of this cloud, from a locality about fifteen points cast of this city, to the furthest visible point of land westward, a blight streak appeared, apparently (he clear horizon beneath the cloud. Along the upper edge of this streak, or the lower'edge of thedoud as it appeared, the surface of the lake was rcilected. Three inverted vessels—a propeller and two .schooners—were visible ai one time. The point of land, with all its trees, was also inverted. To those who never saw such a phenomenon* before, it must have seemed utterly incomprehensible. To behold a full rigged vessel sailing with her masts downwards, and another vessel, in her natural position, sailing directly beneath her, is sufficient to seriously alarm a superstitious mind. Such phenomena are now too well understood to attract much astonishment but the gravest philosopher would travel many miles to feast his eyes with the novel sight.

a thinl time, within a period of eight years, that our curiosity has been gratified.— Clevlaml Leader.

From Mexico.

The news from Mexico is important. It i-! beginning to be thought, that after all Santa. Anna's bragging, and his reported victories over Alvarez., that the latter has out-generaled him, and drawn him along by feints from one defile to another, and at v-t got him completely tangled, and has slipped in behind him, cutting off his communication, nnd hemmed him in between Aeapuleo and the passage of 1V regit io and Co jiiillo. It is thought by some that he and his army have both be .MI destroyed.

In the meanwhile the^ Government is in abad/iv. Santa Anna left no substitute, and the -Ministers alone can do nothing.— The Treasury i-- empty, and there is nobody to borrow. An explosion is looked for every day. A correspondent of the N. O. Bee says, '.Do not be surprised if my next letter announce^ a revolution-in favor of •Juan Cabollot, the man of the times.'

A Curiosity.

At this office may be seen, for a few days a rare curiosity, in the shape of a cane, which was was used for many years by John

Neal, Esq., and which he stuck in the ground on his farm, three miles N. E. of Middleton, (now the property of Jacob Michael, Esq., about forty-live years ago— the cane commenced growing, and in a short time a thick coat of bark was formed around it, and having been carefully trimmed as it grew up and increased in dimension to the heighth of ninety feet—the tree, after Avithstanding the wintry blasts of for-ty-five years, yielded up its vitality, and was cut down by Mr. Michael a few weeks ago. In splitting up the first cut, the identical cane as first planted dropped from the centre of th log, just the same as it was when planted, 45 years ago.—Catoetin (Md.) Whig.

THE DKMOCUATICMEETING LAST Nn.itT.— John L. Robinson, in his speech last night, denounced the Temperance men as vnprin-, pled men. When he had finished his speech, Dr. Thompson arose and asked Robinson if he understood him to say that the Temperance men were unprincipled men. He declined answering the question a second time. Robinson replied very indignantly, when

hompson remarked* that

if he said the Tempic ui men were unprincipled he was a liar. ••.-..Robinson drew bis cane, and the Doctor made an effort to got one from a person standing ar by. The crowd, however, interfered, and the 'mus--.' was ended.—State Journal.

[CoMJtUNICATED.]

DIED—On the 10th inst., of Pneumonia, Mrs. MARGARET CRAWFORD, in the 74th year of her age.

She was born in Virginia, hut removed to this country with her husband, William Crawford, in 1829. She early made a profession of religion in the Presbyterian Church, and long attested its power to impart comfort and joy in this world of sorrow. Her religion was not one of mere feeling, but of evangelical faith, founded upon tho Redeemer of men, and her pious emotions were very uniform, seldom rising tocctaey or sinking to despondency. Her Christian walk was consistent with her profession, adorning the docrine of God her Saviour, and it now furnishes to her friends assurances of her happiness.

Her last illness was short, only 4 days, but it found her prepared. She told her pastor that she had no wish to live longer, and that if it was her Master's will she would esteem it a privilege to depart, to enjoy the rest that remaincth for the people of God.

She lived long enough to see all her children, and some of her grand children, make an audible profession of religion, and then in the house of her son-in-law, and in the p.'escnce of her brothers and children and other friends, she resigned her spirit into the hands of God who gave it. K.

CHERRY PECTORAL,

For the rapid Cure ot

COFGIIS, COLDS, HOARSENESS, BRONCHITIS,WII00PI1VG-C0UGII, CROUP, ASTHMA, AND

CONSUMPTION.

To Cure a Cold, with Headache and Soreness of the body, Take the Cherry Pectoral on going to bed, and wrap up warm, to sweat during the night.

FOK A COLD AND Coucn, take it morning, noon, and evening, according to directions on the bottle, and the difficulty will soon be removed. None will long suffer from this trouble when they find it can be so readily cured. Persons alllicted' with a seated cough, which breaks them of their rest at night-, will be sure of sound, unbroken sleep, and consequently refreshing rest. Great relief from suffering, and an ultimate cure, is afforded to thousands who are thus afflicted, by this valuable remedy.

From its agreeable effect in these cases, mav find themselves unwilling to forego its use when the neccsUy for it has ceased.

From two eminent physicians FAYKTTKVILLK, TI:\.V, April Kith, 1851. Sir:—Wc have given your Cherry Peotorol extensive trial in our practice, and find it to surpa* c\ cry other remedy we have for curing affections of the rcspiratorv organs.

DBS. DIEMER HAMPTON.

To SINGKRS AXII PCHLIC SCKAKIJIS this remedy is invaluable, as by its action on the throat and lungs, when taken in small quantities, it removes all hoarsness in a few hours, and wonderfully increases thepowerand llexibilUy of the voice-.

ASTHMA is generally much relieved, and often wholly cured by Cherry pectoral. But there are some cases so obstinate is to yield entirely to medicine. Cherry Pectanil will cure them., if they can be cured.

BIIONCIIITS, irritation of the throat apd upper portion of the lungs, may be cured by taking Cherry Pectoral in small and "frequent doses. 'The uncomfortable oppression is soon relieved liev. Dpct. LANSING, of BROOKLYN, NEW YOUK, states:— 'I have seen the Cherry Pectoral cure such cases of Asthma, and Bronchitis as leads me to believe it can rarely fail to cure those diseases.'

Foil Ciiot'P Give an emetic of antimony, to be followed by large and frequent, doses of the Cherry Pectoral, until it subdues the disease. If taken in season, it will not fail cure.

Wiiodrixu COUGH may be broken up and soon cured by the use of Cherry Pectoral. THE N'I- I.UK.V/.A is speedily removed by this remedy. Numerous instances have been noticed where whole families were protested from any serious consequences, while their neighbors, without the Cherry Pectoral, were suffering from the disease.

S.U.FM,Ohio, 11thJune 18.rJ.—Doct.J. C. Aver —I write to inform you of the truly remarkable effects of your Cherry Pectoral in this place, and in mv own family. One ot my daughters was completely cured in three days of dreadful Whooping Cough, by taking it." Dr. Means, one of our very best physicians freely states that he considers it the best remedy we have for pulmonary diseases, and thai he has cured more cases_of Croup with it than other medicine lie ever administered.

Gur clergyman of the Baptist Church says that during the run of Influenza here this season, he has seen cures from ymir medicine he could scarcly have believed .without seeing.

Yours respectfully, J. D. SINCLAIR, Deputy Postmaster. From the distinguished Professor of Chemistry and Materia ilcdica, Bowdoin College.—1 have found the Cheary Pectoral, as its ingredients show, powerful remedy for eokte, and coughs, and pulmonary diseases. PAHKER CLEVELAND, M. D.

Brunswick, Ale., Eeb. 5, liS.Vl. Dr. Valentine Mott, The widely celebrated Prolessor of Surgery in the Medical College, New York City, says.—'It gives me pleasure to certify the value and efficacy of 'Ayer's Cherry Pectoral,' which 1 consider peculiarly adopted tu cure diseases of the Threat and Lungs.'

Cures of severe diseases upon the Lungs have been effected by Cherry Pectoral in such extreme er.s 'sas warnint the belief that a remedy has at length ben foundtliatcr.il be depended on to cure the Cotghs, Colds and Consumption which carry from our midst thousands everVVear. It isdecd a a mcdieine to which the alllictcd can look with confidence tor relief, and they should not fail to avail
