I’m not going to enter into lin e or place ; but stitlicc it that our ship was a good one, and that wo were on a voyage with a righT heavy load or coolies. We were very lightly packed, I can tell you, and no mistake. Wei!, wc had the black- ics on deck preity much, and all we could to veniilale and purify them ; and as ycl vo had no disorder among them—all -vas going pielly well. “The skipper Was much engaged lie- low—lie was one ol the kind that be lieve in keeping tbvi steam up—high- pressure, you know. In fact, 1 had command ; the ‘oil man’ never inter fered. Doctor, l*ys arc the greatest nuisance and torment that you cau have, afloat or ashore—no mistake.— We liad two boys. They were little dwarfish chits, hut as cunuiog and tricky as young apes. It took us all our time to lock after those boy Sometimes they fought—sometimes they leagued in mischief: but if they were out of sight, you might he sure they were doing no good. Gcor; was the name of one, Harry that the other. Ti c whi le of the ship w; against them, ami they against the \vliolc ship. It was a game, and the little wretcho played well. Of course, they were Gnashed from time to time, but that sccrncd to act ouly as a stim ulant. “Well, one day the coolies got up a great affair—at least, it was a great affair to tlirm, poor creatures. They were to giw a sort of offering to tin ' god—or ?it icast one ot them. Th wanted to ho in his good books, y sec, and so they made him this gift.— I don't kne wall that was in the bundle, but I think there was rice, and 1 knm that there was money. The offorin; was lixcri in the truck of the main mast—the truck, you knotV. is the but ton affair at the very point of the mast. Well, it was fastened up du ring ih< day, ami the sigu was, that if the god came in the night and took away ti e bundle, lie was well pleased, ami nn ant to Mess their voyage. I was fa>tcued nil right, and they set ; watch if tlu-ir own to keep a tight ey to the Oumilc, so that they might se the god swoop down and carry it away. There was also a group of coolies at the shrouds to see. ihnt there was no unhallowed interference by the ship’s people. Well, evening slia'dcd into night, and a deuced dark night it was too— heavy masses of cloud scudding across a sombre sky : not bad weather, hut rather threatening, you know. I on watch, feeling rather anxious how the night might turn out. Our doctor, a native, catuc to my side.— He was a very intelligent fellow, I can tell you, and well educated. lie didn believe in the god coming down and taking away the bundle ; hut he wa.-u'i a fool to express his mind be fore the coolies. They are rather dan gerous cattle at times. You read now aiul again of their risiqg in mutiny, killing the ollicers ami crew, aye, even setting fire to the ship, and playing the deuce generally. Coolies arc uoi lo be trillcs with, especially when there is a great ciowd of them. Of course, they are ignorant and superstition*, and such arc always dangerous. Life with such people is at a discount, and no mistake. Well, the doctor and 1 were devising plans for ventilating the ship by kindling fires, etc., and so the watch passed. When eight bells struck at midnight, I turned in as soon as I was relieved. It seemed scarcely a minute before I heard hells strike again, aud 1 was forced to know that it was lour o’clock in* the morning, aud time for tnc to he on deck to take my watch.

A singular caseofauicide took place l Wyandotte street, - near Four teenth, on Thursday night It was an instance where no cause could be as signed for the terrible act other than pure downright ennui. A young lady, prepossessing, intelligent anti highly educated, surrounded by abclcvtd aud loving father, mother, brother and sister, and a good comfortable home, went quietly and systematically to work and took her own life, aud went from this world unhidden, uncalled. Miss Ella Nve, tlic deceased was the daughter of Mr. Nye, ftirmture dealer and manufacturer on Eleventh street, a g. ntIonian much respected in this city. She was aged apparently about twenty or twenty-one year* of age, was very fair; ami was a young lady of more than ordinary abilities. About tour o’clock on Thursday after noon, she left, her home, which is a neat frame cottage upon the hill southwest of Kuiun’s brewery, aud did not return for nearly one hour afterward. Ilcr family supposed she bail merely gone out tor a walk, paid little or no attention to her absence. Nothiug unusual was noticed about her demeanor, until about seven o’clock, when she called her‘father into her room and quietly informed him that she had taken poison. The following note, left by her, is all the clue lett to indicate the cause of her suicide: “ Darling Fa: I watt to tell you why I do this rash act. Because 1 am living such a useless life. Forgive me, precious pa. And, Darling Ned,' grow up and strive to be a comfort to darling mother,pa and sister.” She was evidently lalmring under a severe fit of canm, or “lilacs,” ns n<i other cause can he Qssignod for her conduct. On the arrivnl.of Dr. D. K. Dickerson, she stated to him that she had taken a tcaspoonful of arsenic.— The physician then informed her that she would die. <Sho said, in response to a question asked by Dr. Dickerson, that she would like to have her lit* fcOh, AA.V — ■ - have iny horse brought out, it you ^ WM. j doing anything paruklof ; bring hua I - ~ 0 - ! ai soon as you can, will yon?" . =* . , , orA And there's the poor women—poor! 1 lbsfal>lishe<!' 1->00- sonlo—it’s all we can do to taper Ym | down to tho situation. \ * “What did you fp’ll that water for,! ^ I 3 O Xfc T E Er hut that ini eruption might occur.

Ot Brigham's present family I am personally acquinted with nine teen of his wives. Before he was a Mormon he had a wife and family, hut of that lady I know nothing. Two of her daughters are in Utah. Ilis Mor mon family begins with Ins first legal wife, who is still living—Mrs. Mary Ann Angel Young. She is probably about his own age. hut is physically less preserved, and looks much older. .She is a most excellent aud amiable lady, and bears traces of having had her full share of earthly trouble*.— She is the mother ol three, prominent sons, Joseph A; Brigham. Jr.; John \\ f ., and two daughters—Alice Luna. Each ol the sons lias three wives. The first daughter third of four wives in a |K>lvgamic household. The other daughter if I the first wife of a young man, and bar “' lor a companion wife her latlier'f daughter by another mother. The eldest daughter, Alice, has also her half-sisu*r as an associate husband’s household. Ill* legal »ife. J Urighaiu i>: Ella Phillips was Hie li examined.

She appeared to lie veiy calm and ladylike.
