Tho work commenced muny years ni,'0, but
wns arrested in the year IP 57, nt tho time when
the Mormons exhibited a spirit of insubordina
tion towards the oilleersof the (ieneral Govern
ment, and (ieneral John-ton was scut with a
sufficient mllitury force to compel duo rcpeet to
the authorities of tho United States. All work
was then su-pended on the temple, and prepiln
tions were made by the Mnrmois to burn their
town and migrate, to sonic yet more remote plucc
of settlement.
These troubles, however, wero paelllcatcd, and
mutters resumed their wonted aspect. But tho
architect of the temple, for some reason, was elis
satisfied with the work done, and the entire mas
sive foundations were taken up and the stones re
laid. I am not stitllclciitly familiar with tho
technics of architecture to describe In professional
tirns the work, dine; but lliut wlii-h strikes
tvry oli.-cner 1 tho remarkable solidity of tho
Itone-woik. It appeals to be laid there to remain
a thoumnd years, furnishing un unyiuIdiiiK sup
port to the immense building that is to rest
upon it.
'J be foundation Is deep, the Btones large, well
elected, perfectly jointed with innumerable
arches, upright and reversed. 1 1 trust no archi
tect will criticize that expression. AS' hat I mean
tiy it is, that the arches, of immense strength, are
both right side up and bottom sido up. Isn't
that plain?) Tho tones comprising this foun
dation are hirge, square blocks of granite, brought
fifteen miles, and it is of similar stouu that the
entire structure is to be built. It covers a largo
(pacr, say 210 by UK) feet. 1 suw an outsido view
of the upper portion. Tho stylo of architecture
is scmewliat novel. The front view shows tlireo
towers, the centre more elevated I ban those at tho
ildo.
Tho rear end presents a viow of three towers
also, the sido walls being strer.gthercd with
Powerful abutments, covered with pinnacles,
he walls are lofty, and tiio entire air of tho
building, as represented in the view I saw, is
Imposing. There is no excess of ornumotit. All
la substantial, dignilied, nnd impressive. This
building Is not for the use of tho congregations of
tho people, but for the priestly ordinances of tho
Church. The pcopifgiu their ussciuuiugcs will
meet In another building in tho rear, of which 1
(ball speak.
The w ork on the temple building appears to bo
impended now. 1 suw no workmen, uud I was
Informed that no definite period could bo assigned
for its completion. Immediately in the rear of it
is the beginning of the tabernacle, a building
intended tor the gathering of tho people. It is
projected on a large scale, mid on a very peculiar
dcrign, in maikcd contrast with the temple,
design. It is to be an oval building egg-shaped.
1 Was told that tho interior would correspond
with the shape of an egg. At present fifty-two
massive abutments of solid musonry, ten feet by
four, show tho exterior lino of the structure.
From the top of these abutments the oval roof
Will spring. The lloor will bu oval downwards,
seated with rising scats, us un amphitheatre.
There will be no close-built side walls.
As it is intended for the vast congregations,
ventilation and light are looked to, and the build
ing will be ncurly all windows and doors. It
rovers a space of two hundred and tweuty-fivo
feet deep by ono hundred and seventy-live feet
wide, and is calculated to hold ten thousand peo
ple. Here the teachers and elders will enlighten
the people, and their united sungs will go up.
The cost of these buildings must be immense,
lint all is contributed by the members of the Mor
mon Church iu labor and money. Their Hy.tora
Of tithing is ade quate to the work. When I
asked, "What is the estimated cost of the temple
and tabernacle ?" I was (nlormei with a smilo,
"Wc do not calculate things in that way. When
it is decided to do uuythiug among us, It is done
without calculation of cost, each doing his part."
I am informed that 1'resideut Young himself
is the superintendent and actual architect of the
buildings. F.vcry stone in them be lias insixjeted
and measured with a tape lino, and assigned to
its place. 1 am also informed that it is the pur
pose of the President, with a view t facilitating
the purpose of the enterprise and to lighten tho
bcavy labor, to undertake the gigantic and costly
business of turning a neighboring river from it
coun-e, and carrying it waters over to the moun
tain quarry, whence the gigantic blocks are ob
tained, and thus inpplyiug a large canal he
Intends constructing (or the purpose of floating
the stonei up to the very door of the temple. The
work already done here, under bis direction,

energy of conception and strength of purpose
utticiaiit for all such daring work.

Frtn Linden Paper.
A warm day in spring In New York oft jn means
a hot day, snth as oppresses lni lon in August.
The air seems full of gold dut heated to the
boiling point, and a native Americtn takes to Ice
cream and brandy -smashes remedially.
I was on the "shilling side of rtroadway" (I do
not know lhe origin of this derogatory designa
tion) on one of those h"t morn ugs In pnng,
when Iho metropolitan disposition to lee cream
Impelled me to a con feci iouer's shop. Tho bick
parlor of a former aristocratic h iusc was the refreshment-room.
Its large windows looked eastward, nnd the
roem was Hooded with sunshine, such as never
Dli cm s a Londoner nor is blinded with ; tor there,
are two siil, s even t the subject of sunshine. In
the warm heart of the light there was a brilliant
tn f parrot, fastened by a silver chain to a
perch, w here fhe se.-tne l t.i rest from pure choice.
She was singing as 1 never heard a parrot Sing
with human naturalness and rol'tcking j iyons
m ss The song, an ancient favorite witii a certain
class In the land of its birth, had met favor with
all classes in tho land of its adoption :
1 O, It'l my ullht on a ihlny ni-M, Ar,"
She sung it ail, without once stopping or break
ing down.
The waiter, who wiped the small table whore I
had re.itrd ui.i self and handed me tho daily pap.'r
lastcntd in n machine, le t it should run away,
remarked, "Twenty yrer old, if she's a day !"
1 gave my order, and then listened to the song
until It was tinlsli' d. as a respectful aidlenee
should, not Interrupting to applaud. Then 1 said,
"llravo, i'olly !"
The parrot turned lirr head, nnd looking at mo
sharply, said rapidly, "What's your name i What
do you waul I'an you whlstio r"
"What's your namor" i replied 111 Yankee
fashion, answering ono mu?tiou, or throe, with
anoi her.
"l'rctty Toll, pretty Poll, poor Toll! VoIIy

Captain John Drown's bird, ship Milni. Iioii'Mit

Captain ltrown's a Whig, wcrs a clean shirt.''
This sent tho parrot's a-soeiations to sea, and
she proceeded to heave uuchor with a will, cli mix
ing merrily to sailor songs till an imaginary
storm mint on. Thou sho gave orders through
a spuming tiiimpet, proving tli.it she had been
forgotten nnd lett on ileek in a s ptall, and that
she bail not been so mil -li frightened as to inter
rupt the progress of her education. When the
storm was over, site took to the pump, nnd s mg

The parrot's usual sharp Imrkiug nnhnmanity
of video was not present in this specimen. Mio
snoke and sang like a music-loving negro of intel
ligence und F.uropean training. Her lirst lessons
doubtless had beeu from such a muster. Uapt.iiu
Iirowu's bird began a running lire of nasty words.
As the Yankees say, "it would not be proity" to
repeat this portion of tho bird's performance. Liko
u good artist, she did not n.luiv her audience to
tiro from the length of any part of her perform
ance. Sho came by sudden transition to the
rehearsal of political contests. She elected (Jene
rul Harrison to the rresidency of tho United
steles with great eclvt, singing:
llsvo ycu hear, I the great cuuioldlf jn,
Mellon. UtotloO,

Jt Is tl.e bull a rolilMK on,

The Knglish reader may need to be informed
that General Harrison, then candidate lor the
I'resideucy of the then United States, had once
upon a time fought with some Indians ut u place
called Tippecanoe.
A hero was wanted as caudidate for tho Presi
dency. Tho "Hero of Tippecanoe" was selected,
nud duly nicknamod ''Old Tip," nnd was sung
into oflice. "Tyler.too," became Yicc-Pretident,
because a President involves tho snuitur of a
Vlce-1'icsident. "Little Van, Van," who was "a
used-up man," was President Van Huron nt tho
time of this election, iu the fourth year of his
reign over this groat republic. Tho songs In this
campaign, which wcro all faithfully romembercd
by tho parrot, had a great family rcsemhlanco,
mid were not too reverent to be inconsistent with
universal sullrago und "tho sovereignty of tho
people." One of them, sung to tho tiino of O Su
sanna! alluded to the residence of Mr. Van l!u
ren, and tho product of his kitchen garden, in
the culture of which ho was supposed to have
t;reut i-ails-faction.

Johnny was President Van Huron's only son,
and a celebrated Democratic "stump orator." Tho
family residence was at Kinder hook.
Ti e next "presidcuti.il camp-dun" rehearsed
by the bud waa that in which Mr. Ilcnry Cay
failed to be elected, 'ihe refrain of ono of tho
songs was sung to the tumi of " Old D.m

Millions of men, north, south, east, and west,
had sung the tunic doggerel to the same negro
music, with the same fjo-t of torchlight proces
sions and tar-barrcl bouhres, that the parrot was
now singing in the soft sunshine of early spring,
in tho metropolis of Ihe great republic.
Captain llrown's bird wns a living history of
muih that had not found rec ird elsewhere. When
at last sho ceased to sing, I turned to tho table, to
frd a melted ice crenm and un iced sherry cob
bler awaiting my leisure. 1 paid proper atten
tion to the ligitiinutu fluid, uud was paying my
score, when a young girl, us pretty as young
American girls often arc, brushed past me, and
past her faded an 1 attenuate 1 mother, whos.it nt
tho receipt of cash, evidently going to school;
for she hud a book and a porcelain slato iu bur
hand.
The parrot cried out briskly, "Maggie, have yon
got yonr geography r" Mio replied, "Yes, I
have," and weut her way. The feminine cashlor
assured me that the parrot knew the meaning of
all she said, and of nil that was said to her. Tho
proprietress believed in her rational powers as
fully as the negroes lulicvo iu those of tho mon
key. "I only wish," said she, "that she would
not sny so many things that are not protty."
should the, age of tho parrot bo correctly esti
mated by na'urulists, this same bird may live to
celebrate a dozen more presidential elections ; or
pei haps the inauguration of an elective monarchy.

Our old friend Iladiali was the leading bari

festival there, and lie sung the part of "William

Academy of Music. It is said that "hu sang liko

The King of Italy hns awarded Ilossinl a deco

letter :
"I'htstrious Signor: The festival by which

for the first time, under the leign of Victor lliu

the populations of all parts of Italy have hastened
hither for olc object, frateruiziug, not only iu
spirit and intention, but by their presence in pay
ing homage to a sublime genius.
"His Majesty the King, who makes himself
the interpreter of every noble nBpira'ion of Italy,
has been desirous on this happy occasion to deco
rate you with the Orand Cordon of Saints Mau
rice and Ijuuj-us, inteuding thereby not only to
render honor to the man whom all F-urope
honors, but to pay a national debt, and to sig

for her great citizen.
"In acquitting myself of the agreeable missio a

fsoh mon said that "of making many books
there is no end" in those ancient days, when tho
very best a man ci nld do iu a llietlmo consisted
in seittrtiing over a few goatskins w.tb the
Hebrew alphabetic characters, britli:ig a id hor
rid in their appearance, the outcome of the early
ii'-mef literalurc. What would the jolly old
fellow say, could he peep forth from his sareo.
pliagus into one of tho publiihing houses of our
day in London, Paris, and Lelpsle, or even New
York, Ihiston, anil Philadelphia, whero hj ciulj
sec enough type (of which ho in his immense
w isdom knew nothing) used in one day to belt
the globe three times at the equator, or 7o,iKX)
miles. We think lie would einphasir.o his groat
decision of the wisdom of his day, as "vanity of
vanities, all Is vanity," and scornfully con ludo
that ho did not amount to much after ail.
Still, we would not bethought to unlcrvaluo
tho wi-ilum of the gieat Jew ish scholar und ru.er,
for hail he not done his duty lu his day by en
eoiiragi! g literature and art, we should have
lacked tome of the stimulants to our present
results. One age is so intei linked wiih those that
precede It, that care must bo had nlwavs to give
due credit to the geniuses that havo preceded us,
and none their work well, thus setting us a good
example, and laying the foundation lor the com
plete accomplishment of the work they may leave
unfinished.
In the ago of Solomon, when Hebrew litera
ture was reaching perfection, tho Oreeks wero
just emerging fiom bookless burbiirism, through
the genius of Homer, whose songs found no
editor with energy sullicicut to collect them
till four bund nil years utter tho death of the
poet. Hut in the last few centuries of ancient
Greek nationality, the whole circle of sciences
known or dreamed of .in that day was lit up
with the fires of genius that continue to dial
ler go the admiration of tho world, and will
engage the otfec ions of scholars to Into re
corded time. Siill. it was nil luhornudcrgro.it
disadvantages, for no printing press relieved
the weury hand of the copyist, nnd, conse
quently, tho multiplication of books was slow,
und the price asked for them was correspond
ingly high; indeed, these facts remained tho
same till the dawning of our own nge ; fi r in the
year l"7'J,woarc told, that a copy of tho Uihlo
could not bo purchased short of liitcen years'
wuges of a common lu'iorcr. Yet Pioiemy, King
of Fgvpt, gathered iu the library of Alexandria
TUO.W'O manuscripts, about one or two centuries
belorc Christ, which afterwards became fuel for
tho religiously crucd Arabs in their capture of
the city, nnd the los of which has never been
very severely felt, for not muny of said volumes
were worth saving, nnd copies of thoso that wcro,
were kept elsewhere; sowesutrer but little loss
by the barbarism of the Mohammedans.
With tho Introduction of the printing press, in
Mi l, books wero multiplied nud che ipencd to
6iii li nu extent that tho human mind is iu no
(lunger of ever lacking stillielent nutriment to
pieveut its riciding back to barbarism, or rusting
quiet without a supply of books as well as oilier
ucccss.ir.c8 of lite. I'niler the stimulus of this
grrut tleniai d for reading, colossal publishing
iicuscs uave spuing up, rivaling tor enterprise
and energy iu busine- s, und pe iuiiiaiy success, tho
merchants of any other culling; and books have
bien wrhten and prin'cd lu such niimb rs as
would astonish fbe old mathematicians. Indeed,
Fomc single individuals have produced mora
copies ol tin ir hooks in a short tune than could
havo been funnel In ull tho libraries of tho world
at any ono period antecedent to tho a;;o of
pi iiitinir.
Kir Walter Scott, as an example, produced
within the last forty years of his lite, near a
hundred dilhreut books, of which millions of
copies have been told, nud lhe iKiuau J for which
still continui s, though he has been iu his giuvo
thiity jeurs.
William Cobbctt, who died in lH.Ti, composed
til out ono hundred tliUcicnt books ; Daniel Deibs
about two hundred, of which owe, "llobinson
Crusoo"(the most enterluliiiiig lie ever writ en,
und which has been the means of sending more
boys to sea and to nn ocean grave than nil the
other books in tho world), has evune down to our
time. And we could give u long list of authors
eminent for tho number of their literary oh spring;
but lorbinr, for we wibb to speuk of a dillorout sot
of authors.
The men who, as writers, most challongo onr
admiration, are those who salt down u whole life
timo upon ono book, and thns secure un undo
uiable iinmortulity. buck was the gnat work of
Copernicus, occupying forty years ot his life, and
the proof-sheets of which lie read on his dying
couch, proving nnd explaining our present
adopted theory of tho solar system. Such was
Adum Clark's Commentary Uion the Scrip
tuies nwoik thut Used up forty years of bis
lilc, and which for its learning and candor
pleases everybody; and the same diligeace
and perseverance could be credited to many
J-.uropean writers. In this country wo have as
yet but one or two noted instances of a scholar's
devotirg his whole litu to tho study of ono
subject und its embodiment in virtually ono
book, nnd those single instances arc found in
Now England, and in tho department of lexi
cography. Noah Webster and Dr. Worcester
(the latter of whom is living), if wo mistake not,
devoted their whole lives mainly to tho study of
words, und both have brought out tho result of
their labors for tho benefit and acceptance of tho
public. And what muy euuso a Ibtle pride to us
Americans is, that while the Kuglish people
lacked a good full dictionary of their language
till about ono hundred years ago, wheu Dr.
Johnson published his by subscription, our Oov
eiLuiciit had hardly got formed, and ihe ashe of
Johnson wero h.irdly cold in the grave before
Noah Webster began bis immortal work of a
Dictionary of tho Fnglish language fur tho
American people, which in all features, excepttlio
spelling of a lew words, has been adopted by the
Lritish public, nnd incorporated into their stan
dard dictionary, thus Compelling the egotistic John
Hull to pay respect to the genius of his brother
Jonathan.
Wo believe that I)rs. Wcbitcr and Wore ester

to bo raised in proportion. In achurch in Alsace

The German papers publish a frightful story
about a man named Conrad, who murdered a
w idow while sho w as ou a religious pilgrimage in
L'ohcmiu:
"W hen charged with the perpetration of the
murder he at once confessed his guilt with the
utmost readiness aud indifference, and took tho
police to bis lodging, where be gave up to thorn
the clothes he bud stripped from the murdered
woman, with her umbrella, and live florins in
money. Ho was immediately taken beloro the
local magistrate, and iheu made the fullest confes
sion of his crime, relating its most horrifying de
tails with the greatest coolness. According to his
own account, he wished to marry a young womau
to whom ho was engaged, and intended to gain
his living for the future by the help of u barrel
organ, for which, however, tho llconso was
refused, as the police would not give him the cor
tificutu of good conduct requisite in such casos in
Austria. Hereupon his 'bride' deserted him and
married another, and liis thoughts were now only
bent on vengeance. In this stuto of miud he
went out towards Quiuuu at C o'clock on the
morning of the Nib, and resolved to murder the
first woman ho met, whoever sho might bo.
Chnnce btought tho uged widow Conrad across
bin path shortly after lie set out, and ho at once
compelled her to go with him into a lonely purt
of tho forest, wheie, after committing violence
on her, be took her life by throttling her with
his bunds. Shu died in three miuutes. lie next
stripped her to the skin, cut off votoub parts
of her bodv, us above particularized, and
curiied the fragments of humuu flesh, together
with ber clothes, the umbrella, aud live florins
with him to his lodging. The next day and this
is the most hideous part of his story he boiled
the human flesh with some potatoes, and con
sumed the whole of it, with the exception of the
fut, w hich he skimmed from his cannibal stew
aud poured into a bottle. Tho latter he put In
bis pocket, and then weut coolly to his work as
usual, which he pursued until bis arrest took
place, three days suboeiiueutly. The remains of
Ihe unfortunate woman were interred in the
churchyard of Komohen, a!raost all the inhabit
ants turning out to follow in the processiou. Uor
murderer t.s escorted to the prison of Kaabon,
whero he uow awaits his trial.
An Australian paper gives some particulars
about the feats of a patty of four bundred of the
Idiull tithe:
' Onr Informant states that on the occasion of
his visit they were celebrating the victory f the
day before by broiling the carcase of a defunct
Miall, who bad met with tho severe misfortune
of LtrvUig a native spear driven through bis heart.
The cannibals like their meat underdone. They
are dainty epicures. The deceased wreU-h was
distmbowellcel, in the first pla--c, and bis entrails
placed in a 'dilly hug," which was inimeeliatelf
shouldered by a native bag. A flro waa then
kindled, and tho body wnsthnwn thereon. After
fr a, ling lor a few minutes, a common descent
was made upon II a cannibal scramble, in fact.
The cutca-c wus se ve red into lifty parts, and in
its raw cotdiiion was devoured without the
slight! st aflcciation or sympath?, nausea, shame,
or indignation. The bone's were pieke-d very
clean, aud Ihe result wns a splendid skeleton."

Prince, I havo begged a few hay sends, which I
have in my bnnd'e, and am going to sow them
upon my poor husband's grave, and havo brought
a llttlo water with mo to make them spring."
"You have no occasion to elo that, as the grosi
will aoon grow upon it," replied tho clerk. "Ah,
Mr. Prince, that may be ; but do you not know
my hnsband, wlio lies now here, made me promise
him, on his dealli-bed, I would never mirry
again till the grass hail grown over his givc ?
