In which all Advertisements appear for ONE OHABGB

IT is no longer tbe Russian war. now tbe Turkish war.

It is

THE number of distinguished invalids is quite large this week.

A LARGE and interebting family is left to mourn the loss of Brigbam Young.

THE camp meeting at Martha's Vineyard is a "respectable saturnalia" says tbe Congregationalism

LOOKIXO GLASS is tbe name ot Chief Joseph's right hand man. He is probably a person of serious reflection.

IT would be more sensible for the government to construct a transcontinental canal than for it to attempt tbe management of the railroads.

THE condition of Senator Morton has been daily improving this week, and those attending him are xsonfident of a speedy and permanent recovery.

No great sensations seem to be stirring just at present, and base ball news seems to crowd tbe Russian war bulletins in tbe columns of tbe dailies.

NOT another tie goes down, not another new rail will be laid, not another new stockholder entrapped, if tbe government takes charge of the railroads.

The Russian bunfcr shouldered his llitle gun and thought be would take a hunt and shoot tbe Turkish deer But the game proved an ugly buck, and the hunter had to run froip Jfj horna. Qive the Bucharest.

THE Eighth Regiment Ohio National Guards and the Sixth Pennsylvania regiment have disbanded. The latter was tbe one whose soldiers did the fatal shooting at Pittsburg. This does not look tUucb like swelling tbe army.

FARMERS have been fondly hoping that their big crops would flow over toward tbe scene of the war. They may dismiss their bright expectations. The Turks are killing off the population of Southern Europe, so that there will be nobody left to eat victuals.

THE death roll of this week includes Brigbam Young, Ben DeBar, the actor, E. L. Stanton, son of the late Secretary of War, Admiral Semmes, of Mobile, Ex-Gov. Wilson Shannon, of Kansas, and John L. Miner, of Cincinnati, formerly Supreme Court Judge.

BIJND TOM is taking lessons in New York from Prof. Somebodyski. Thus tbe natural poetic fire and musical in spiration of the boy will be spoiled. The untutored grandeur of the "Battle of Manasaeb" will give place to some more cultivated piece. Blind Tom will be spoiled as a self-taught pianist, and yet can not be made an adept as a trained musician. ______________

BEWARE of this weather which seemB so boautiful and harmless. It carries sickness in its breath. The oool air of the nights and mornings Ik particularly dangerous. It is saturated with malaria, and in its wake follow ague, typhus and kindred evils. Woollen clothing by day and plenty of covering by night, with some kind of moderate tonic for persons of delicate constitution, may save you a long and dangerous illness. Be particularly careful about the little ones. Keep their feet warm and dry and keep them from too inuob exposure to tbe chilly atmosphere.

An Indianapolis man who has gone to Mississippi recently with a view of making that State his residence, writes tbe News a letter in which he says that he has found tbe people extremely sociable and that they don't Mem to care whether those who go there from the North are republicans, democrats or what so that they be good citiiena and willing to labor for the development of tbe country. He says further that there is more good land in the State than all the unemployed men in Indiana can cultivate and that the large land owners are anxious to have people come and settle among them. This teems to be Impartial testimony and goee far to confirm the wisdom of tbe President's southern pOliCy. ^mm—mmmg.

HERS IS encouragement for neopbytic poets: R. H. Stoddard began life at fifteen in a lawyer's offioe at a salary of leas than a dollar a week then he went into journalism next, into a tailor's •hop following that, as bookkeeper In a bankrupt brush and bellows factory then he tried blaoksmithing for which he had no genius, after which be learned the trade of iron moulding. All this he wrote poetry which was uniformly refused by the publishers and purified by the flamea. Finally his poetry brought him ten dollars which be promptly expended ic tbe purchase of an aeoordeou for hla sweetheart. Then he issued a small volume of his poems of which one copy found a purchaser! Henry waa evidently a poet from the outset and is now recognised as one.

DEATH OF THE MORMON DICTA, TOIL On Wednesday afternoon about four o'clock Brigham Young died, at tbe age of 76.

This man of iron will and wonderful power for organisation and discipline was born in Vermont in the year 1801. Notwithstanding his age he retained his mental and physical powers until very recently in all their original vigor. It is thought the trial and execution of Lee, together with tbe published charges in regard to tbe Mountain Meadows massacre, had much to do with his deoline, ss ho waa known to have been greatly excited over the matter.

Young's connection with the Mormon church began in 1832, at Kirtland, Ohio. He steadily advanced his popularity and influeuoe, so that on the death of Joseph Smith, which occurred in 1844, be was chosen President and Prophet. The Mormons in Illinois and Iowa had be come so obnoxious that they were great ly persecuted by the inhabitants, on aocount of tkeir constant thefts. They of course found excuse for their stealings through pretended religious belief. Tbe persecution having become so fierce that it was evident something must be done. Young brought his executive abilities into play, in tbe shape of tbe great march to the west,—a journey full of misery and untold tribulations to the Mormons, but of final success. This emigration from Nauvoo occurred in 1840, before tbe gold fever, before tbe general Influx of people into the far west, before such a thing aa a trans-continentalrailway ever was thought of, and while it was sup posed that in their far off encampment in the beautiful valley of the great Salt Lake the new arrivals would forever be out of the way of the "world's people."

In 1849 Young organized the State of Deseret, and applied for admission to the government. But Congress refused, and organized the territory of Utah. Young was appointed Territorial Governor by President Fillmore in 1850. He held tbe position eight years, and was then displaced forcibly in favor of Albert Cumming, appointed by Buchanan. Since that bis rule has been spiritual. At different times he has attempted to secure the admission of Utah as a State.

The number of the "saints" has grown largely by emigration. It Is thought true estimate would, place the present population of tbe territory at 100,000. Some think the death of Brigham Young may precipitate a conflict between the Mormons and the government, there being enough of them to cause a good deal of trouble on any attempt to forcibly abolish polygamy.

THE FAMINE IN INDIA. We have been talking a great deal about tbe hard times and the consequent suffering induced thereby in this country but when we turn our eyes tow ards some other countries it is evident that our own is a land flowing with milk and honey in comparison. In southern India a famine of terrible and almost unprecedented severity is raging. The territory involved is about seven times that of England and contain! a population of 20,000,000 souls. Already, it is said, a half million deaths from starvation have ocourred and it is estimated that 4,000,000 will perish in spite of all that can be done to save them. Two million people are now dependent on daily relief and the number constantly increasing, .-to

It is hard for ui to concelve how Such a state of affairs can exist. When, however, we learn that nine tenths of the people of that country have no property at all and are wholly dependent on the crops for subsistence, that the crops are scanty even in the best seasons and when the drouth comes they are an utter failure—we can begin to see how such wholesale starvation is- possible. Then, too, we must remember that the country is destitute of navigable rivers and railroads and proviaions have to be transported for long distanoes in ox-carts, so that efforts at relief are necessarily slow and to a great extent inefficient.

The suffering of such a plague-strick-en region is inconceivable, and yet Btrange to say, while millions of human beings are absolutely dying of starvation on one side of the globe the people on the other side scarce take note of it. When we contemplate such stupendous distress as follows in the wake of a famine tbe little squeeze through which we have been passing loses many of its exaggerated terrors.

THE INDUSTRY OF THE FUTURE. It is not unlikely that the recent war against the railroads, the series of unlucky occurrences which have operated againat them in the last few years, and the talk in regard to putting them under governmental authority, will have the effect to atimulate manufactures in the west. There are no longer inducements toward investing capital in railroad stock. The days of large dividends and sudden rises in value are past. The feet that there are only three railoada in Indiana which pay any dividends Is alone sufficient to discourage enterprise in that direction. Therefore It would eeem but natural that the capital which would otherwise go toward the construction of new lines should be diverted into some other channel. Which one should that be? That of manufacturing, of oooiseu Small capital is more effective when applied in this way. railroad ean not be started and poshed to snooess without its toll fuoUof expenditures. good

soany

tixnea roads have been

•tatted on a small basia with the expectation of "working up." But In every th«y languish, lie idle, the objects of ridicule and a lesson upon the folly of beginning without seeing the way through. But manufacture can be started on a ratall scale and "workup,"

aiding to push Itself. The largeat man factoring concerna In existence have grown from small beginnings.

It seems strange that commerce should get so fer ahead of mauufaotures here in the west. There are some big openings for industry on this side of tbe Alleghenies. Thus as an instance, cotton In tbe bale la still shipped past us to tbe eaat and north eaat and then brought back to us in tbe form of olotbs. Yet in every direction are all the materiala needed for every variety of manufactures, snob aa ooal, water power, iron, bog and bom iny. All that is lacking is capital and enterprise. _______

GERMAN statisticians put the present population of the world at 1,425,000,000. The most thickly populated country ia Belgium which supports 460 people to the square mile. China baa the largeat population, being 425,000,000, tbe Britiah empire comes next with 285,000,000, and Russia, next with 85,000,000. The five largeat dtlea in their order are Londou, Paris, New York, Berlin and Vienna.

GENERAL LEW WALLACE has views in regard to fighting the Indians. He thinks government troops and trains of artillery must necessarily prove inefficient. His plan is to train men specially for frontier service, teaching them to learu to live and fight like the redskins and pressing Indian ponies into the service in place of horses. It it* something on tbe Howgate plan of Polar exploration and seems to have good sense and reason in it.

SOME crusty old fellows object to woman's suffrage on the ground that woman is not mentally constituted for the interest in and knowledge of political affairs which it is necessary she should acquire before being allowed the privilege of voting. Such must acknowledge that at least one woman knows as much about politics as anybody. That is Gail Hamilton. She has furnished the key note for editorials and editorial notes in the papers all over the eountry in the past three months. To erown her triumphs she is charged with political intrigue. This is always a necessary accompaniment to the career of every great man, and so likewise of every great woman. Whether or not it be true, she has shown that gbe is fully able to engage in wire pulling and political diplomacy. Yet every ignorant old crony who blf prejudice for his motives, every dusty tramp, every low down renegade can vote, but Gail Hamilton mnst stay at home on election day and "keep within her sphere!" _________

AN old tradesman advances the following views on advertising: "The first utility of frequent and regular advertising consists in this: There is at all times a large olass of person?, both in country and town, who have no fixed place for the purchase of certain necessary articles, and are ready to be swayed and drawn towards any particular place which is earnestly brought under their notice. Indifferent to all, they yield without hesitation to the firat who asks. Then, in the country, a considerable number of persons who wish a supply of tbe article advertised and do not know of any particular place where it is to be got, being thus furnished with the address of a person who can supply them, naturally open a communication with that address which leads to much ulterior business. People In the coun try are also liable to be favorably impressed by the frequent sight of a name in the newspapers. The advertising party acquires distinction in their eyes, and thus they are led, in making a choice, to prefer him. But by far tho most important effect of advertising is one of an indirect nature. It conveys the idea that the advertiser is anxious for business, and such a person is always supposed to be industrious, active and civil one who keeps tbe beet of articles, at the cheapest rate, does everything in the neatest, and most tradesmanlike manner, and in general uses every expedient to gratify and attract customers. People like to purchase under these circumstances."

SECOND VACATION LETTER FROM REV. S. S. MARTYN.

THE OLD WAUKESHA AND THE NEW.

WAUKESHA, Aug. 21st, 1877.

To the Editor of The Mail: While etber charms draw others here, yet more attractive than they all—at least to your correspondent—are the old associations which cluster around the plaoe. Twenty-five years ago he lived here as a boy, attended tbe Congregational church where bia father preached, romped the hilla with other boys, and drank at the very spring which ia now tbe oelebrated Betbesda whose cures have traveled round tbe world, but which then waa a little, unpretentious, unknown bubbling fount upon the grounds belonging to one of his fetber's parishioners. Times have indeed changed during-these twenty five years. Boys have become men. The fathers have slowly but surely dropped from the ranks. The town Itself baa trebled— from fifteen hundred then having grown to nearly five thousand now. The old church itself hss been moved away and turned Into a dwelling bouse, and In its stead anew church stands erected on a new alto. Tbe old familiar feoes of other days come back only now and then, and the boy that sped away a quarter of a century ago back to nis eastern home, returns now for the first time since only to find bow soon the places that once knew ua know us no more. Yet the hills are still tbe same Just as high and beautiful aa then. The same little lasy stream flows on Its way

•!, a delightful relic

of tbe past. There also is the old stone acbool bonae on tbe hill just as it used to be, where tbe teacher bad a habit of making tbe boys when unruly sit with tbe girls ss a punishment! There was one boy oertalnly, who proved quite often a trial In tnla respect and as he looked In upon tbe empty benches a few days ago —tbe same old benches with the same old niches in them—he eould well remember what frequent vislta be had to make among the fair faces whose wry names now are lost among the Aiding echoes of the past! And then tbe dear old home on tbe hillside with Ita terraced dopes in front and rear, and the meadow stretching down to the road! But old home, thy lines were feirerthen tbau now. Thou too, haat become deoripit and wrinkled and tbe boy of those dsys, standing and gazing at thee, found no longer tbe hearty weloomeofold. Outgrown thy remembrance also, be stood there a stranger, with the doors that once opened to hia touch, olosed against him. It was no longer home. Change had been busy even there. Or wa? it a fancy merely, that the old walla might perhaps be whispering to themselves the secrets of those other dsys, or looked with more tender earnestness upon the stranger before them than they cared to show? Perhaps so but it is not the old home.—and let us go. Tbe busy world with its cares ssraits us. Dreams of tbe past become sad with the old dismantled homestead in view.|aDreams of the present deoeive us enough. Back again to the day's toils! They are the true friends in tbe end, for they make no professions—they simply use ns, and then hurry us on to the close where old and new are all the same, past and present blend into one, and dreams no longer weave for us their fairy shapes only to leave us undone and sad. Farewell old town with thy memories of other days if thou hast changed, so bss tbe boy who has been dreaming all these years of thy old-time face. Thou still art fair, and many yet shall learn to know and love thee, and knowing not tbe past, praise thee for what thou art in the present, and thy healing waters for tbe generous cheer they yield. He shall reverence thee for what thou wert—the charm of his boyhood's days, when with the strange longings of tne future stirring within, he looked up to the fair skies above thee, and caught tbe bright beams of hope that led him on. The dream has indeed been ruddy dispelled and tby charms are no longer the charms of old. but for this no tname is thine. As if thou couldst remain tbe same with all else changed! Let not him at least upbraid the for though the dream which thought to find thee the same may go, the sweet songs of those early days echoed among thy vales and hills, yet in his ears, a refrain linger. no time can dull nor disa] destroy. The turmoils may harass, the hopes of the morrow deoeive yet still that refrain remains unchanged: still it lives the same sweet strain of old, and for that gilt alone, old town, were there nothing else, he vet would love thee.

llsappointments of the present

MR. SNOOKSrs DEES. To hive a swarm when in an accessible plaoe is a very simple and easy operation, when one knows how to do it.

That was what Mr. Snooksy had jtlst been reading in tbe "apiarist's column" of an agricultural paper, and it just happened that it was tbe very day on which his be6s swarmed. Mr. Snooksy bad but one hive, ani was anxious to double his capital in that direction. The air was filled with whizzing black specks, reminding Mr. Snooky's father of tbe time when the bullets sizzed at Monterey.

Tho first thing to be done, according to ancient tradition, was to assemble the entire neighborhood and make a deafening clatter with old pans, cow bells, dinner horns and the younger son's drum.

The bees having alighted in a brown, humming, squirming mass, on the lower twig of a convenient peach tree, Mr. Snooksy proceeded to business. He dispatched one boy on horse back to the nearest dry goods store to bny ten yards of green vail. Another was sent for bottles of camphor and sweet oil. The hired man was started off to procure some sulphur and tobaoco. Three tables were moved out of the house, set together and covered with two bed sheets.

Having all ready, Mr. Snooksy put upon his head a huge sombrero hat, having first plated it with old tin so that the bees could not sting through it. Hv got into an overcoat and three pairs of pa Jts The latter were stuffed into a pair of heavy cowhide boots. He attached tbe vail all around the bat and buttoned the coat over it, with a atick between his teeth to prevent the vail from settling down upon bis nose and thus giving tbe bees access to that organ. He wore two pairs of buckskin gloves, and wrapped an undershirt around each wrist. Then, with a bottle of camphor in one pocket and a flask of sweet oil In tbe other, to used as a soothing liniment in case the stings of the bees should penetrate all this armor, he sallied out to hive the cre'turs.

Firat he got a pile of boards to support the limb of the tree on which the bees were roosting, and belayed the other end to a large aunflower stalk. The new hive in which it was his object to domicile tbe young swarm hsd been placed upon tbe tables.

With a new and sharp set saw, Mr. Snooksy proceeded to sever tbe limb from tbe tree, with slow, careful strokes. Then holding it out gently, he laid it upon the tables near the new hive. After that be went into the house, intending to bring out the musquito netting with which his nightly conch waa canopied, and stretch it over tbe hive. To get it loose from tbe bed took some time'

When he came out of tbe house again, great waa hia astonishment to find that the beee had all gone into the hive, without having once attacked anybody or •aid word or so modi as offerred to sting or rebel.

Ola Sol Buster happened along about that time, and seeing the redoubtable knight In his formidable cuirass, be had to alt on a nail keg and laugh half an hour before he could talk, and tbensung out "You blamed old chicken you, why dont you come over and see me hive bees! Ail you have to do la to saw off the limb and lay it down by the hive. There aint nary bee going to stingy ou on leas you meddle with him. Tliey alius crawl In jest as quiet aa sick kittens.** And then old Sol went off again into another roar.

Shows and Show Folks.

THE COMING ENTERTAINMENTS.

For next week, on Wednesday evening, we are to have the original Georgia Minstrels, remodled, enlarged and improved, constituting the bet of tbe oolored minstrel troupes now traveling. Says tbe Atchison Patriot:

As usual, the Original Georgia Min strela drew a crowded bouse last night. Tbe troupe has played here before, and patrons of amusement know just what kind of an entertainment they give. The minute tbe curtain was raised tbe audience commenced to laugh at the ludicrous antics and conduct of big mouthed Johnny Wilson aided by his fellow end men Green, Delaney and Ruck, whose capers and foolishness were laughable in the extreme. Tbe programme was carried out to the very letter, and the interest of the audience did not lag in the least. There is not tbe usual sameness about the entertainments of this troupe as in the case of others. They are in charge of an excellent director, Neal Moore, who changes their programme with ever tour, and admirably arranges it so that it will give a variety of entertainmeut thereby keeping the audience attentive and interested all the time. The Original Georgias, negroes and ex-slaves though they are, are undoubtedlv the best minstrel troupe that travels'. Their white imitators cannot produce that genuine negro original ity which belongs only to the nature of a negro.

On yesterday negotiations were closed with Mr. Abbey for two representations of "Baby," a drama of the "Forbidden Fruit" style, now having an immense run in Now York. It will be here on the 5th and 6th of November. Among other features are the following booked for tbe Opora House
