Tae Mountain Meadows Mas sicro- Fifteen years ago. to-wit: iu tlie spring of 18.i7, a train of cmmifrrnnts from Ark:.ti cs lon and far Califjrnia, well provided with all the appliances for comfort on their long journey, ami for successful colonisation nt tip* end of it. They trawled in safety as far as the ‘•Mountain Meadows,” two hundred and filly miles south of Utah, and there nothing but the bones of the unfortunate party ever gave any intimation of their sad fate. The murder ha« been charged upon the Mormon loaders, and by them upon the Indians. No evidence lias existed to fix it upon anybody, until the 4th day of the current month of September, when I’hillip K. Smith, a qnonlnm Mormon llishop. made oath befotc the Clerk of the District Court of the seventh District of Ne vada, that the*e 120 men and women were massacred by the order of the Mormon authorities of Utah. The atlldavit gives minute p.rtic tdars of the bloody transaction. Af ter the unhappy emigrant* had left Cedar City four days, orders came ‘•from headquarters'’for a muster 01 the Mormon legions, and instructions were given them to pursue tiie train an 1 kill all the party except the small children, who were to In* saved and turned over to the Mormon peo ple. In accordance with these directions the troops pursued the train and over took it at Iron Creek. Here the un happy emigrants defended themselves with great t a lor for four days; but on the fifth a tlag of truce was sent them, with assurances of protection if they would surretider. Upon these assurance* they delivered op their arms, and were then all shot down, except seventeen little children, who w,-rc carried back and placed among the Mormons. As might be expected such a reve lation as this, under all the formali ties which can give force to an affida vit, and bearing inherent evidence of its own truth, excites a profound sen sation of horror all over the country. The testimony is that the party of immigrants had given no offence to the Mot mons. They were “devoted to destruction," in Mormon phraseol ogy, either to carry out a general policy of preventing such expeditions by tenor, or to retaliate upon the Gentiles {or injurious treatment received by the Mormons from the people of the Western States before the occupation of Utah. It it Wrcnj to Sing or Dance ? The following is an extract from a act mon by Ilev Henry Ward Reedi er : ••Sonic persons, when they join the church, think that they must put all the glee and music out of their lives. Dou't you da it! If is a love song ripples up to the surface of your heart, sing it! Don’t let it die! My second mother, for I remember no other, was my idea of womau gentleness, propriety and elegaiiee- She was not, however, demonstra tive. She used, before her marri age to be quite a belle, and was often known to trip the light fan tastic. “One eveuiug as my father played a tune on the violin, my mother arose aud in the most graceful manner pos sible to cohectve, commenced to dance around the room. 1 didn’t know what to make of it. I was speccUteuß with consternation and de light. My father looked on in sur prise. Never in the course of my whole life had I seen sueh going on attempted in my father’s house. It was delicious, and I got ales on then which has lasted me ever since. 1 think to this day that if mv mother had danced oftener and said the cate chism a little less, it would have been better lor all of it*. If you have a talent for music, cultivate it; what ever gifts God has given you make th * hi > t of them, whether of voice, foot or eye. In this way men will be made better.'’ ••That is the elepant. sonny ?” said a matron at the show. “It is, though '! Does he know that lie is an elephant 7” “Yes, my son ; and lie knows which of the other animals are eleplianls, too,” Each State is entitle Ito ans many clectois for President and Vice-Presi dent as it has Senators and Represen tatives in Congress. This remark was made by a young lady at Bt. Louis: “It is wisely or dained that the same wind that sweeps our dresses aside also fills the eve* of naughty young men with dust.’* A- a, remedy ;or Bronchial Affections and I'hnmic db-c-tse* of tlie Lungs, oothinz r-ver Lcfnrv discovered equals Dr. Pierre's Golden Medical Discovery.

Indigestion is the primary cause of most of the disease* of the discharging organs, ami one of its most common icsuhs is con stipation.

It lends activity and vigor to tlie inert and enervated stomach, relieves tlie alimentary canal of its Oh s'ructions, ami gives tone to tlie mem 'im:te which lines it, gently stimulates the liver, braces tlie nerves, and cheers the ani mal spirits.
