TEItBE HAUTE

Tuesday Morning, V&r. rd»

THE Sun has ceased to "shine for all." DANA erases the Indianapolis Journal from his exchange JisL, Cruel DANA! Ljiihappy Journal.

ttt

-iv A CORBESPONDENT desires information V/as to the meaning of the word "ecumenical." It means general, or universal, ap'plving to the habitable world. An ecumenical council is a council in which the whole world is supposed to be represented.

TIIE PRESIDEXT, in conversation with a prominent member of Congress, recently •Vremarked that he thought he had a most excellent Cabinet. He found them all men of good judgment, who attended to their official duties to his utmost satisfaction, facts which the public would soon find out.

IIE (Sheriff Stewart,) has allowed no criminal* to escape from his custody by unpardonable negligence.—Journal.

But he has voluntarily permitted criminals to go at large, and one, at least, while thin at large, organized a band of thieves and with that band committed fresh cr mes. IIow is that for "unpardonable negligence"?

INDIAN

TROUBLES are no onger the

peculiar affliction of our Government.— The New Dominion, with its many cro3se and tribulations, lias now aroused the ire of the red man. The half-breeds of Winnipeg, and the Chippew:u of Leret lake, are opposed to their colony being absorbed by the Confederation, and they. will use force to prevent the undesirable consummation. As an earnest of what they mean to do, they opposed the progress :0f the new Governor of their territory, appointed by the Canadians. A parley was held, and the rcpresenta ive of the

Dominion talked the aborigines into peaceful measures. He said nothing about the desirability of annexing Winnipeg to the Dominion. If the Canadians must have this country, they will have to prepare to furniuh it with Indians agents, peace commissioners, and all the other paraphernalia that civilization employs .. against barbarism.

"FANNY FERN" calls the attention of the editor of tke New York Times to an article written by her in which she complains of the "flippancy" which characterizes the editorials of the New-York papers on the "Woman Question." She does not think that the writers show "respect for, or appreciation of, true womanhood." Perhaps not—but example is more powerful than precept. Let us see how "FANNY FERN" herself elsewhere discusses this same "Woman Question," in a little dissertation on "shaving:" "There is no man who would not rather be shaved by a woman than to liave a great lumbering man pawing about his jugular vein, and poking him in the ribs to get up when another man's turn came. I don't say how his wife might like it, but I am very sure he would and to hia wife, why, she'could shave some other man, couldn't she?"

Is that the method of treating the subject which "FANNY FERN" wishes the public journals to adopt?

THE Tribune is of the opinion that perhaps it would not be amiss in President GRANT to send instructions to the military officer commanding in Utah, and to the civil functionaries in that Territory, to have especial care that the laws wbich guarantee protection of life and person to all peaceable citizens are firmly upheld ^and unflinchingly enforced at this time,

A revolt of leading Mormons has been begun against the power of BUIGIIAM YOUNG, which has heretofore been supreme, and which has never scrupled to enforce its purposes at all hazards against all offenders. Until recently, no man in Utah dared to set himself up against the Mormon despot, and if any one attempted such a thing he was speedily delivered over to the Danitcs or Destroying Angels. This sort of business must come to an end, and there could be no better time than the present for showing to all the people of the Territory that it has come to an end. It is especially important, in view of such facts as have recently been published that the.c should be no further misunderstanding on this point.

HENRY WARD BEECIIER has delivered „a lecture on "Preaching" to a crowd of divinity students in New York, and we agree with a Boston cotcmporary that if they do not profit by his practical teachings then are they dullards of the lowest order.

Preaching is a trade just a* much as watch making or horse shoeing, and a man. must learn it. A preacher must learn to walk before he can run, and must reproduce in himself, in small degrees,the divine nature. Ministers must learn all about each member of their congregation and sort tliem out. Some believe in Divine sovereignty, "and they preach in gross, leaving it for God to retail it in his providence.

Mr. BEECHER says to the preacher, "Pick out your men in your congregation and then aim right between the eyes and if you do not hit them, blame nobody but yourself." The trouble with a great many ministers is, they let the history of a years' sermons belike a string of sausages hanging in the shop. Two sausages there, two there, two there, and they take them up from the bottom, and every one is made precisely of the same meat all through. What the people want in sermons is a juicy steak, and now and then a roast, or a fry of tripe as one kind of meat in a sermon is just a? even, unpalatable to the human mind as a steady diet of liver to the human stomach.

THK eighth semi-annual report of J. W. AI.VOUD, superintendent of schools among refugees and freedmcn, for the six months ending July 1, 18(59, contains a great deal of matter .of interest. The educational returns furnish evidence of decided progress. The report says that difficulties, indeed, still continue, arising from prejudice, indifference, and want of means, more especially during the last year, from political disturbances .throughout the whole country, and also from agitation of the various unsettled Southern questions on the subject of rcCM- Truction. But these difficulties have been in hejmain surmounted, organized opposition appears to have mainly ceased, and favor towards schools for all is in most of the States publicly professed. The sentiments of former masters as to education are bv no means elevated to the standard of the public school system at the North. General taxation for this purpose is questioned. Paying for educating other people's children for the public welfare is not well understood. Quite inferior schools are thought sufficient for the collored race. But with universal suffrage conceded, surely the frcedmen's vote should lie intelligent. As- the colored man is to become a part of society, lie. must have substantially its privileges. Taxation for schools implies the unquestioned right to have schools. An effort lie last year, almost unanimous,^has been made to organize and endow high and training schools for Hie preparation of teachers. jfThis effort h&s been eminently successful, ft* -Ma

rtudente *"t Ike Bo8ton I?m®» declares there in not a single gentleman among ttieirf* for fchief amusement is to taunt* peer at the twenty-fire young lartijf EnSfai the Woman's MedicalCollege wh6 attend the clinical lectures at thr®Pennsyhania Hospital.

Mormons as Agriculturists. fThe Deseret Agricultural and Manufacturing Society held a Territorial Fair in Salt Lake City on the 4& and 5th of October last. Among the list, of premiums paid we notice the following: For the best fenced and cultivated farm not less than 20 acres, a silver medal best 10 acre* of cotton, $10 best half acre of madder, $10 best half acre of indigo, §10 best fenced and cultivated garden, $10 for the best one dozen of apples, peaches, pears, quinces and apricots, $2 each and for the be3fc half gallon of blackberries, plums, currants, gooseberries, &c., §2 each best collection of grapes, $5 best figs, $5 best pint of olive oil, .$5 best collection of medical herbs, $5. All to be grown in Utah.—• Among the premiums for stock, were: for best blooded sheep, $75 and $50 best native sheep, $25 and $10 best blooed cat tie, $50 and $20 best native cattle, $25 and $10 bast horse, (roadster), $75 best d.aft horse, $75 best native horse, $25 and so on, but no premiums at all for trotters or racers. They also gave a premium of $100 for the best five tons of native iron, and $100 for the ben ton of native copper. For" manufactures, a gold medal was given for the best collection of woolen and other cloths, made in Utah and $5 each for a long list of Utah-made articles, making it $20 for the best 12 yards of silk.

Doubtless there are many things of which the Mormon* are ignorant and some things which thev will be compel ed to learn by dear experience, but we think the reader will ag*ee with us tha with all their bad qualities, they know how to develop a country. It would be a happy thing if liRiGii v:.i co.ild be in duced to accept a "new ievela ion," adverse to polygamy, and persuade his people to conform to the requirements of our civilization. Their persevering industry would make them valuable citizens if they would abaxdon the surviving member of the "tyrin relics of barbarism."

SIR KOBERT GKOSVENOR, an ancestor of the recently deceased Marquis of Westminster, got a notoriety in the scandalous chronicles of the reign of George III., by bringing a suit for divorce against his wife, Lady Henrietta Grosvenor, on the charge of crim. con. with the Duke of Cumberland, brother of George III. The Suit came to trial, and the testimony in full was printed at great length, includ ing the love letters of the amorous pair, which were the subjects of a good deal of laughter, not merely from the rhodomontade which runs through such productions, but for the bad spelling and bad grammerof both parties. The proof was very clear and precise indeed, the lady made written confession of guilt. She had been betrayed by |her confidant, a Counters D,Onhoff, who sent anonymous notes to the husband, telling him how to track the lovers to their meeting place, and gave him their letters. But Lady Grosvenor, on her part, procured such a number of proofs of her lord's dissoluteness and infidelities, and of his ill-treatment of her, that he withdrew the suit, and they con tinued to live together.

THE poor working-girls in cities afford one of the greatest subjects of philanthropic science. They toil and spin, and arc arrayed, some of them, shabbily if one of their number earns $4 75 per week, she pays, perhaps, $4 25 for her board and in short these work-a-day fairies have the hardest share of the worst of all battles to women, that with poverty and shame. To strive patiently against slim wages, mean lodging, bad examples, and all the while with a woman's instincts and sensibilities keenly alive, requires qualities which scarcely belong to men and perhaps the shrewdest observers of the case would be inclined to hint that, without certain humble comforts of religion, and womanly affections surmounting daily impurities of circumstance, our working-classes on the woman's side would have as little hope as they sometimes have wages.

THE Jewish reform convention in Philadelphia discussed the marital question. It was finally decided to permit an exchange of rings in the marriage cermonv that the marriage formula shall read: "Be wedded to me, as husband, respectively as wife, according to the law of God that the priestly marriage laws, "which presuppose the higher sanctity of the Aaronites, have lost, since the destruction of the the Temple and the extinction of the sacrificial worship, all validity, and are no longer to be respected," and that "divorce is, on Mosaical and rabbinical grounds, only a civil act, and never was a religious function: it therefore must be recognized solelv as an act emanting from a judicial authority of the State. The socalled 'ritual gat (Jewish letter of divorce( is therefore in all cases declared ineffectual."

OF BOUTWELL, a Washington correspondent of the New York Herald say: "The head of the country is an enthusiastic billiadist. To him the cue and balls are are perfect delight. After a busy day spent in close attention to the business of the dry of his deportment, the elegant Governor, who, by the way, is growing in his manner very like unto Charles Sumner, repairs to a select billiard saloon on Pennsylvania avenue, and there spends two or three hours making his caroms.— Boutwell is not a professor of the scientific game, but he is a very player and improves space. He has a cue of his own, whiclic brings with him to the billiard saloon and carries home with him when he finishes playing. George S. may be seen issuing from the saloon sometimes as late as midnight.

IN SCOTLAND, within the past few years, the consumption of spirituous "liquors has decreased about one-third.— Within the same period—that is, since 1S53—there has been a corresponding increase in pauperism and crime. Here is a fact, abundantly vouched for by official returns, which "flies directly in the face of all the ordinarily accepted beliefs concerning the intimate connection between whisky and want, beer and beastliness, porter and poverty. The canny Scots drink less than they did sixteen years ago, but they are more vicious and have more poverty among them than when they drank more. Facts are more valuable than theories and how is this fact to be explained?

IS now some time since the Hungarian nobles proclaimed their readiness to die for their King, Maria Theresa, and the example then given has not been very "taking," but lately a Prussian regiment of dragoons presented a sword to their Colonel, the Crown Princess (nee Victoria of England), in consequence of her .Royal Iligness "being present at the head of her regiment at the late maneuvers at Stargard." The saber was inscribed with the words: "The dragoons of the Princess Raval to their Colonel."— Perhaps this fact will show that women can fight in battle at all events, it may be commended to the lady of the Revolution and of the Woman's

of Lisbon.

Voice

JOHN 11 PRESTON, of South Carolina, delivered a bitter pecession lecture at Richmond, Virginia, filled with abuse of the Yankees and the (Government. He was invited to speak by the committee of the Agricultural Fair, which was in all respects so successful that it is a pity the venomous old Cavalier was allowed to explode. The Richmond papers seem to be verv much ashamed of his exhibition.

"KLEPTOMANIA" is really to become fashionable, we see no reason why the law should not take cogpizance of it at once and establish penalties for offenders of this kind. There are many cases where the nicest discrimination is necessary in order to draw the line of distinction between ordinary theft and aristocratic "kleptomania."

The dating feais of a yoang"girl known

M'lle Zagrino,

who

is only about

teen years of age,

the

four

have

for some time ex

cited the wonder and admiration of the habitues of the Varieties theatre. Mounted upon a bar hanging twenty-five feet aboye

floor, this beautiful childjwould

balance herself, with arms outstretched and a smile upon her face, and then swinging

long oscillations, stand

upon one

foot, looking more like a creature of the jur than a being of the earth. So danerous did her performances appear, hat many persons predicted that she kould fall and break her neck.

Last night Mile Zagrino was going through her usual trapeze performances, and had come to that part wheia shestanca on one foot, with the bar in rapid motion, when she lost her balance. She attempted to grasp the bar with her hands, but missed it, and fell headlong upon the floor inside of the orchestra railing, striking on her right hand and breaking her wrist. A deep gash was also cut in her forehead, ana her shoulder was severely bruised. A cry of horror arose from the audience as the girl fell, and men started up in the wildest excitement. Every .cheek turned as pale as ashes, and men and women became as tremulous as though stricken with palsy. On striking the floor near the bass viol, the gi~l lay still, and it was supposed that she was dead. Her father, who had been watching the performance from the stage, at oace came forward, and leaping into the orchestra, lifted up the lifeless form of his daughter and placed her upon the stage. She was then carried behind the scenes and three physicians were sent for.

In a few minutes the girl revived, and was able to speak. She said that she felt no pain except in her wrist, and begged the doctors not to disturb her. No other bones were broken except at the wrist,

The first physician who arrived was Dr E. D. Hell man, who examined her injuries and found them to consist—so far as he was then able to ascertain—of a severe contusion, two inches in length, across the forehead, and a fracture of both arms near the wrist. It is believed that no fatal re suit is likely to transpire, but this can not of course, be certainly determined unti to-day. We hope—although the hope is a vain one—that this accident will produce some sort of a legal prohibition of all such trapeze performances in the fu ture. They ought to be banished from every civilized community.

SHOT WHILE HUNTING.

A Wounded Boy Crawls Around in the Woods Seventeen Hours—He is Finally Discovered by a Faithful

Dog.

On Saturday morning last a lad named Louis Priester, son of John Priester, one of the pioneers of Jefferson county, who lives about three miles west of Kimmswick Station, on the Iron Mountain Eailroad, obtained permission to go out hunting for squirrels. Accompanied by his dog, he started for the woods. Not returning at nightfall, as was expected, his parents felt a little uneasiness, but consoled themselves with the thought that he had probably taken ^lodgings with some of the neighbors. The morning came, but the boy was still missing, and learning that he had not been seen anywhere a vigorous search was commenced, and the forest traversed by scouting parties in every direction.

All efforts were in vain until Saturday afternoon, when a brother of the lost boy, happening to pass by a dense thicket, the dog rushed out, howling in the most piteous manner, as if to attract attention. He was followed into the brush, where lay his wounded and helpless master, 'who had been there seventeen hours, and who was thus saved from death by lingering starvation through the intelligence of this faithful animal. The wound caused by the accidental discharge of the gun is of the most frightful character, and the sufferer when found was entirely unconscious. Yet in this state he had crawled about fifty yards from where the accident cur.d, and \he bushes arourd were prcs5 traied by his struggles. It is supposed that he was sitting on the log where the gun was found lying, with the but of the weapon resting on the ground, when, making a movement, the trigger caught, causing the discharge.

The muzzle, it is supposed, was very near his face, as the whole charge, shot, powder and wads passed through without any being left in the wound. The parts outside the wound were not even powderburned. The boy was conveyed to the house of a neighbor, and medical attendance lrom Kimmswick was procured. After treating the injury, the patient regained consciousness, and was taken on a spring wagon to the house of his parents There are some hopes of his recovery.— St. Louis Republican, Nov. 12.

CORA PEARL, the Parisian queen of courtesans, is beingdaily written up by unprincipled correspondents, who as yet have not reached the deepest depth of their degradation. If—instead of picturing this harlot, clad in the elegance of fashion, and living in the splendor of wealth obtained by bartering her person to sensuous things in 'the shape of man—these descriptive writers would find a nobler subject to influence the young ladies of the present day—giddy enough already—it would redound greatly more to their credit. We have had enough of this "procuress" business by correspondents of lively imaginations.

LAST Thursday week a clergyman of Bristol, Rhode Izland, received a letter inviting him to "fill a vacant pulpit" at Providcnce. Instead of finding a vacant pulpit he was put into an empty room, a pistol was presented at his head, and his pockets were rifled. He also had to draw a check for $1,500. There is a touch of primitive simplicity about the conduct of the worthy clergyman. He walked into the net of the fowler with his eyes shut. In this sharp age clergymen must often be in peril if they make journeys into far places at the solicitation of perfect strangers, and without asking a question.

PARIS, III.,

May 8,1869.

From my knowledge of "Barr's Pectoral Elixir," and observing its uniform good effects upon the many customer!, to whom I have recommended it since its first introduction to the public, I feel warranted in saying that I consider it EQUAL, if not SUPERIOR, to any of the popular Lung remedies before the public.
