true that surroundings, %J cast a powerful sway, but not alyays. In truth, the cases are rare, Our most useful and powerful men were leared in obscurity away from superior advantages, having probably a few borrowed books, which were studied after a hard day’s work of manual labor, by the aid of light from the burning of a pine knot or an old greasy lamp. Such were the advantages that Horace Greeley, Benjamin Franklin, Christopher Columbus, and many more broad-minded men enjoyed. They succeeded because they felt confident that their career in life depended on their own individual labors, and not upon chance, and so with all human beings. Youug men and young women -of the present age are hearda to complain at times and wish they had an opportunity to improve their minds, when at the same time the table is covered with useful books, papers, &c., treating on all sabjeets of iuipox_'tance, and not enly are they surrounded with books, but thousands of spare moments do they have to devote to the acquirement of useful knowledge.

‘The Fairs Measure Progress.

The following from the Wabash Plain Dealer is probably as true of all other counties where Fairs have been held, as of that county: ~ “There is an improvement in the manner and culture of our people ‘plainly perceptable at each of our succeeding county fairs. There is an'increasing per cent. of intelligent looking and good-mannered people, and .a still more rapidly decreasing per cent. of ill manners, ignorance, and disregard of social and moral restraints.— There is an ever increasing interest in the improvements the Agricultural Society is intended to promote, and a decreasing number of those couples who walk about swingingtheir clasped. hands while they feed themselves with gingerbread, regardless of expense.. There are many more in proportion who attend the Fair as a pleasant, intellectual reunion, than formerly, and many less who find their enjoyment in riding around in the swings, to the music of the accordeon. All attend with the evident intention to be amused, to have a good-time, and to be happy, but there is as marked an improvement to be noticed in the means and .sources of enjoyment as there is in those which tend to commercial utility. In a word, the improvement in our stock, our grain and seeds, in our farm implements, is not more apparent than the social and intellectual improvement which our schools, churches, agricultural fairs and : other valuable institutions have, given us. No other meetings are held in the county, of so much duration, where each person is free to act so nearly as she or he may please, and hence no placé where any change in the habits and manners of the people is so apparent. It is, therefore, a pleasure to be able to note so palpable an improvement as each year so unmistakably brings with it.” -

- It is reported on reliable authority that in several of 'the large cities of Ohio the communists have organized themselves into'a secret society with all the customary paraphernalia of such ' institutions, including passwords, grips, signs, dark-lanterns, ete. They say. that they do not want an immediate divide, but they will arrange things so that in a few years there will be no *“inequality.” This organization is, in its present incipient state, perfectly harmless, but some nmeans should be adopted to check such an astonishing folly. Secret organizations of.this class are of no benefit, and are often dangerous, especial}y when under the control of ignorant and-aspiring men who have the determination to use them for polisical purposes. It is gratifying to know that a portion of what is called the workingmen’s party have denounced this communigtic element. No man with any sense or any self-respeet would be guilty of joining these plotters against law and the peace of society.—lndianapolis Journal. - ‘

NEW YORK pupers announce the recent shipment to England of a large quantity of American oysters, and it is thought that an extensive trade of this kind will eventually grow up.— The oysters are opened at Norfolk and packed in patent refrigerators: constructed for the purpose. It will take a long time to popularize American oysfers in England.. The English oyster is entirely “different from the American, having a strong coppery or metallic flavor, very disugreeable to Americans and very much liked by Englishmen, who consider American oysters flat ‘and tasteless. As the English are proverbially obstinate in their tastes 1t will probably be a good while before they will learn to eab American oysters, unless indeed they are furnished 8o cheap as to make i an object on the sgrc of economy, which 18 not likely t#*be the case.

_ Death of Brigham Young., Brigham Young was attacked with cholera morbus a week ago last Thursday evening, said to be the result of making a hearty dinner of green corn and peaches. The attack was regarded as serious, but on Friday his physician pronounced him convalescent. He had a relapse on Saturday afternoon, accompanied by distended bowels and severe pain. The symptoms yielded to the use of morphine, but on Sunday a condition of semi-stupor set in, which continued throughout the day and night. On Monday there was no change for the better. -On Tuesday it became difficult to arouse him, but he retained his consciousness andrecognized those about him, but experienced great difficulty in breathing, and artificial respiration was resorted to for about nine hours. His condition from this time until his death admitted of no doubt as to the result. His last words, uttered on Tuesday night, were, *“I feel better.” He was able to say very little to the members of his family as they came to bid him’ farewell on Sunday night. He then said: “It will make no difference whether I live or die. lam resigned.” The immediate cause of death, which ensued at 4 o’clock on Monday, was inflamation of the bowels, complicated with a disease of the prostrate giand. The estate of Brigham Young is estimated at from $6,000,000 to $7,000,~ 000, but it would be difficult to place any approximate value upon:it, as it is very widely scattered. He owns large tracts of real estate in many of the settlements, and mills, buildings, live stock, and a great variety of improvements. A clause in the will directs that Brigham shall be buried in a rosewood coffin three inches wider than his body, so that if he had a disposition to turn over he might do so; that he be laid on a cotton mattrass; that his'body be borne to the grave on | a bier, and be huried in a stone vaulf, a stome be placed over the top. He requests that none of the male members of the family should wear crape or emblems of mourning, and that the females' should not purchase mourning dresses, though they might wear such if they had them. Brigham Young was born at Whitingham, Vt., 1n June, 1801. He joined the Mormons in 1832, at Kirtland, 0., and soon became prominent among them. He was oneof the twelve apostles sent out in 1835 to ﬁ:ake proselytes. . In June, 1844, on the death of Joseph Smith, he became president and prophet. Illinois regarding them with disfavor, Young and a large majority of the Mormons abandoned Nauvoc in 1846, and arrived in Utah and founded Salt Lake City in July, 1847. Emigration rapidly increased their numbers, and’ in 1849 they organized a State called Deseret. Congress refused it admission to the union, and orgar%zed the territory of Utah, of which Young in 1850 was appointed Governor. The laws of the United States. were however defied by the Mormons, and Young ruled over them with abselute. authority. . In 1857 President Buchanan appointed Alfred Cumming Governor of Utah, and sent an army of 2,500 men to compel submission to rightful authority. Cumming proclaimed in November, 1857, that the Mormons were in rebellion; Jbut in 1858 a compromise was effected. The estimated number of “saints” in 1866 in Salt Lake City was 20,000; in Utah, 150,000. . : '

. Young’s actual wives have numbered about 12; while probably forty others.have been ‘“sealed” to him. A correspondent lately described himas a man without anything holy or devout in his address,/ manner, or appearance. On the contrary, we are told that his bull-neck and rotund figure gave him an exceedingly animal appearance, while his furtive, cunning eye and restive, uneasy manner impressed the stranger unfavorably. His father was a small farmer, and Brigham enjoyed vety few educational advantages.— ‘When a boy he learned the trade of & painter and glazier.. He early developed religious proclivities, and joined theßaptist church,occasionally preaching the tenets of that denomination, as he understood them, in his journeyings ‘while working at his trade. Brigham Young was a man possessing 1n an eminent degree the qualities of leadership, and it cannot be denied that his people as a whole were, in the matter of temporal comforts, well cared for. He was, however, a hard master, selfish, unscrupulous,and unquestionably a murderer. The recent investigations in Utah, made under the direction of the New York Herald, have revealed the fact that Young was beyond a doubt directly responsible for theatrocious Mountain Meadow massacre of mothers, maidens and babes, the only atonement for which thus far has beenthe exectition of John D. Liee. ° o :

It has been long known that it was Brigham’s desire to place his sonßrigham in his chair,dut the attempt has. always been arrested by the apostle ring, of which John Taylor and Emerson Pratt are the leading spirits. Latterly John W. Young has been creditéd with aspirations for leadership, but. the leading Mormons scout the idea. of any of the Young family occupying the first position in the church. It is likely that a descendant of Mr. Joseph ‘ Smith will make a struggle for the throne, and with a not improbable chance of gaining it. |

- Tag New York T%mes of the 10th discusses the loosening of party ties and organization in the presence of the ‘great economic questions which are forcing themselves upon the attention of the public. Upon finance, the tariff laws, ete., that paper declares neither the republican or democratic party has fixed ideas as a national party, and the Z'imes thinks new alliances will have to be sought upon the new gquestions, particularly upon the question of the public credit, It says: : 2 . “It is imftpossible to shake off the impression that the ordinary party lines cannot be drawn in the struggle for the maintenance of public credit and for the overthrow of the pretensions put forward by the advocates of silver as an unlimited legal tender, If we are to have sound finance, resumption in 1879, and an honest fulfillment of the nation’s obligations to its creditors, the worn-out shibbolets of party must be discarded, and the good men of both parties brought together to repel the attacks of the common enemy.” =
