Summer Jaunt.
Is our climate, bo Inappropriately styled tem
perate, it takes some experience and judgment
to learn how to lire. After being frozen in
winter, and drowned in spring, we are sud
denly parobed with blistering beat More we
have had even a premonitory hint of warmth
to urge lis to get a "summer suit." June
holla us, July broils us, and August sets us
fcy to simmer, till at length, with the glorious
Autumn, comes golden days, when life Is a
delight and all nature luxuriates in fulness
of joy.
To the overtaxed denizen of the city it be
comes a question of health and future useful
ness, where and how he oan find shelter from
the heat and relaxation from labor. The sud
den transition to an almost tropical tempera
ture makes the pavement, like the furnace
Beven times heated, and body and brain both
crave safety in flight.
Most people live in such a hurry, taking so
little thought for the morrow, that when the
moment of suffocation comes they fly to the
nearest popular resort as the place most
readily accessible. Those who have striven to
escape from their own tediousness all winter
need the excitement of the popular gathering
plaoe in summer, and large numbers seek
there the gaiety and fashion denied to them
elsewhere. To such the "hop" at the springs
or the sea-Bide offers an irresistible attraction,
but there is another lesser multitude, the
members of which are not afraid of solitude,
and to whom quiet is a boon, who would most
willingly escape from the tumultuous crowd
and seek repose in communion with nature.
The revivifying powers of ocean are as im
measurable as its waves, and there can bs no
more potent life-giver than its breezes. In
wandering by the deer sea its musio breathes
poetry to the most prosaio, and the ever
varying monotony of the marohing waves
carries refreshment to the over-wearied brain.
Along our shore are multitudes of quiet spots,
where the wanderer can gather refreshment,
physical, mental aud spiritual, ani, unmo
lested by the throng, learn the wonders of
the deep, and these happy nooks of refuge oaa
he found at the expense of a little inquiry aud
forethought.
There is even a fashionable way of Laing
adventurous, and a prescribed method for
going a gypsying. But the lover of nature
need not jeek her afar in the forests of Maine
or on the hills of New Hampshire; she oan be
found as wildly glorious nearer at home, and
our own forests have many wild and pic
turesque nooks unknown to tourists, who
offer themselves up as willing victims to the
mosquitoes of the Adirondacks.
Within the boundaries of Pennsylvania
there is bo much wildcess and beauty on lofty
mountain-top and in deep-hidden gorge, by
icy spring heads and clear rivulets, that Bed
ford, Cresson, and the Water Gap are but
types of the wondrous variety of the glorious
Keystone State. The lovely shores of the Sus
quehanna and Juniata, the wilder beauty of
the country traversed by the waters of the
Delaware, the Monongahela, and the Alleghany
offer an ample variety of landscape to the lover
of the picturesque. The hills rise iu beauty
around Bethlehem, and in glory around Maucu
Chunk, while in the long range of mountain
counties there are deep defiles and grand emi
nences hardly known beyond the limits of the
distriota they adorn. There are forests to be
explored, which are yet unknown except to
the woodsman, and caves whose existenoe is
as yet hardly more than conjeotural, while
the lovely mountain brooklets are peopled
With multitudes of trout and what skilled
tourist has a better taste for the piotaresque
than the trout 1
The enforced leisure of summer, or a few
glorious autumn days snatched as the best of
all holidays, cannot be better bestowed than in
exploring these nntraversed wildernesses, and
lovely sequestered nooks which lie beyond the
ordinary route of travel, and have heretofore
escaped the tourists, who persist In the eearoh
the unknown along the old systematized
.rack by which the fashionable traveller has
Bought it for years.
A Singular illustration of the peculiar posi
tion of politioal affairs in Franoe la given by
the fact that a proclamation strongly denounc
ing the Emperor, which ia pabliohed as a
proof of the existence of a revolutionary or
ganisation ia supposed to be an invention of
the police agents, devised to alarm the public
The proclamation gives a brief but pointed
expression to the leading ideas of the oppo
nents of the Imperial polioy in the French
Chambers, but it concludes with the advioe
that the whole people should unite iu a coup
d'etat to overthrow the Emperor, and it is
headed with the old emblems of the French
Republic liberty, equality, and fraternity.
If this be In reality, a police trick, it is evi
dently the object of its authors to cast oppro
brium npon the men who are endeavoring in a
legitimate and constitutional way to oritloUe
the policy of Louis Napoleon, and to expose
his blunders, by identifying them with the
Bed Revolutionists, whom the business world
fearB and abhors. The logic of the device la
"you must aeoept the Emperor with all hit
faults and follies, or chaos will come again,
and robbery, riot, and red-handed murder
reign supreme."
Is Mormonlgm Likely to Survive?
Somb people are prone to look with astonish
ment at the rise and progress of Morinonism;
with the full light of the nineteenth oentary,
they ask, Can it be possible that itoh a reli
gion oan attract votaries from all classes f
And, alas, history too well teaohea us that it is
not only the Ignorant ol asses who are attracted
by new doctrines and new teachers. That a
man like Joe Smith should be the founder of a
large and apparently growing sect ought to
surprise no one who remembers that Joanna
Southoote attracted by her impostures some of
the most intellectual of the people of London,
and history is full of examples of a like kind.
Intellectual people are attraoted by Spiritual
ism. No Intelligence is proof against super
stition. Lord Bacon believed in astrology,
and plenty of great men believed both in
astrology and witchcraft. No two seots oan be
more opposite in their views than Mormouism
and Shakerism the one allows marriage to an
unprecedented extent, while the other does not
approve of marriage at all; yet it is a curious
fact that both seots are composed of indus
trious, thrifty, and careful agriculturists aud
pains-taking housekeepers. The founder of
the Shakera was a poor old English woinau
named Ann Lee, now called Mother Ann.
Coexisting with these seots ia another call
ing themselves Ferfeotionists. The chief seat
of their societies is at Oneida Creek, in New
York State. It seems to be somewhat imita
tive of some of the French Communistic
organizations. It resembles Mormouism some
what, that instead of a man having many
wives, the societistio nature of the system
enables them entirely to dispense with mar
riage. A community of goods, they say, im
plies a community of wives. Brother Noyes,
who appears to be the Brigham Young of the
party, maintains that it is a blunder to say
either that a man can only love once in hia
life, or that he can only love one object at a
time; hence, in the so-called Bille family,
living at Oneida Creek, the central domestic
fact of the household is the oomplex marriage
of its members to each other and to all. It
is in no measure ot ridioule that we venture
thus to speak of what m'ght be termed the
eccentrio sects of this country; it is chiefly of
Mormonism and its vitality that we at pre
sent have to de. Occupying a territory of
their own selection, apparently pros
perous after having undergone many
persecutions, it presents a strange prob
lem as to whether it will continue to flourish,
or whether it will not rapidly sink into disso
lution. Compared with Shakerism, it appeara
at great disadvantage. Whatever may be
thought of Shakerism, no charge of immorality
was ever brought against it. Many persons'
ideas may revolt at their opposition to mar
riage, but of the purity of their lives no doubt
has ever beeu raised. Of the oilier aoot w
spoke of it in yet too new, and its numbers are
too few, to cause much speculation as to whe
ther it is destined for a short life or not; but
Mormonism is a large community, and has
attraoted attention in other countries than our
own, and it obtaina accessions from foreign
countries continually. Now, will the advance
of the Pacific Railroad through their territory,
thus making it nearer to the population of the
States, strengthen Mormonism or weaken it f
This would depend, in a great measure, on the
successor to Brigham Young. Mohamedan.
ism, as ia well known, continued
to flourish even more suooessfully
after Mohamed'a death than during his
lifetime. It is true that Brigham Young is not
the original founder of Mormonism; but there
is every reason for believing that he possesses
more personal influenoe than Joe Smith did.
To compare Young with Mahomet would
indeed be absurd; but the comparison as to
the duration of their personal influences might
be made. And here we say is the problem:
Would the sompletion of the Pacific Railroad,
by infusing a large praotical old-fashioned
brought-up people Into the midst of Mormon
ism strengthen that organization or weaken
it ? It would seem that Mormonism could not
be strengthened by the aooession of suoh a
population as must necessarily flow to their
settlement, in addition to which there is to be
taken into consideration the vast immigration
from Europe, principally Germans at least
the Germans most generally settle out West.
With such institutions the Germans have very
little affinity. A sturdy, intelligent raoe, no
new-fangled notions are likely to lead them
astray from the paths of their fore
fathers. These oircumstanoea must be
taken Into account when reflecting on the pro
bable continuance of the Mormon institution.
It therefore seems as if it must be weakened
by coming in contact with the people we have
just spoken of. Another cause for their de
cline might happen in the t allure of a new
leader, in the event of Brigham Young's death,
to possess the personal influenoe which this
man undoubtedly possesses. Should a feeble
leader arise in his plaoe the chances would
seem to be that their decline might be as muoh
hastened by this cause as by the influx of a
population from the States, not to speak of
the emigrants from foreign countries. Or it
might be, as has happened to organizations
which in some few particulars only it re
sembles, that, like St. Simonianism or Fou
rieriam, it may be doomed to a short existenoe
from the inherent weakueaa of its hold on
mankind.
A iilbobam forwarded from Chicago yester
day, announces that "the First Exposition of
the Woollen Gooda Manufacturers of tan
Northwest," has been opened in that city, and
that "samples of goods are on exhibition from
all the Western States." The rapid rise and
progress of manufactures in the West is one of
the notable events of this era. Although the
Aggregate amount of their products still falls
far below the products of the Atlantio States,
a very important commencement has beeu
made, and ample proof has been given that
the necessity of diversifying Industry is dearly
reooguked, and that the people are no longer
willing to oenfine their attention exolnMvely
te agrionltnre and oontmeroe. The Western
cities are rapidly beoomlng great manufaotur
irjg centres, aad In some of the rural districts
an immense number of woollen manufactories
have been established. The returns of the
tixt census will afford evidenoe of a much
more rapid progress of mannfaotarea in th
West than was ever exhibited in any period of
tea years in the Atlantio States.
Tbb Fbbb-Tbadb Lbaoch has put up fUming
posters at several prominent places in Phila
delphia announcing in deoeptive phrases its
profeesed principles. It would have been
more candid "if, instead of these vagae gene
ralities, it had plainly declared its objects and.
purposes, and clearly explained that "it holds"
that the United States should swell the long
list of viotims of the commercial polioy of
Great Britain tbat American manufactures
should be destroyed and the wages of Ameri
can workmen reduced to the standard of
English pauper labor that the fruits of the
time, money, and ingenious labor employed
to diversify our industry should be destroyed,
and the industrial population of this country
be again confined to farmers, merchants,
miners, aud transporters and tbat the ambi
tion of Great Britain to become "the work
shop of the world" should be gratified, not
withstanding the great loss suoh a suicidal
suriender of our numerous natural advan
tages would entail upon this country, and the
enormous profits the British manufacturers
would derive from thirty-five millions of
American indnstrial vassals.
The Democratic Party ia committed alike
by its platform and the declaration of its can
didate for Vice President to overthrow the
newly organized Governments in the South,
and thus to subject the nation to the perils
and annoyances of another reconstruction of
the Rebel States. They scarcely attempt to
conceal that the chief object they hare in
view, in this revolutionary proceeding, is to
restore the politioal power of the South to the
men who precipitated the Rebellion, prolonged
the war, subjected the nation to untold mise
ries, and who now, unmindful of their defeat
and regardless of the sufferings they have
already caused, announoe their desire and
determination to rule or ruin the Amerioan
people and to inaugurate a new civil conflict if
the Government they vainly tried to over
throw is not administered in their interest.
Well may Wade Hampton boast that he still
preserves a Confederate flag, and that he ia
prepared to hoist it in triumph as soon a3
South Carolina is reconstructed according to
Democratic ideasl
A Contrast. The Hon. James Thomas
Elliott, of Owmdeu, Arkansas, in a letter acced
ing to a request for permission to use his nme
as a candidate for the Republican nomination
for Congress in the Arkansas seoood Diatriot,
says:"! am a truly aDd thoroughly recon
structed Rebel. I say tbls In no canllug or
boosting spirit. I detest a bypoorite and de
spine I be man wbo, like tbe valn-glorlous
Pharisee ol old, makes an ostentatious parade
of assumed humility wnen bis beart is full of
pride and deceit. When I say tbat I am a re
constructed Rebel, I do not say It in that spirit
which suggests extraordinary virtue or claims
extraordinary considerations; nor, on tbe
otber band, do I say It in tbat spirit of undue
humility which suggests a craven and ooward
heart. But I sy It In that open, frank and
maDly spirit of one wbo has tbe honesty to
confess tbat be bas done wrong, and tbe
courage to say tbat he is sorry for IU I unhesi
tatingly and unreservedly aocept the Republi
can platform as adopted at Chiongo, and will
sink or swim with It; and believe tbat tbe prin
ciples therein enuuclated contain tbe great
fundamental Idea of restoring tbe Union upon
a fair, stable and lasting basis. I believe tbe
Republican party bas proved true and faithful
to Its promises and policy, and will finally suo
c ed In establishing tbat policy." What a con
trast to this manly oourse Is presented by the
traitorous effusions of John Forsyth, of tbe
Mobile Register, In which paper he Bays tbat
fbould Congress lmpeaoh and attempt to re
move tbe President In September, be "ought to
refuse to give up the reins, aud if tbe radical
faction elects to use force, let them shoulder
the responsibility and the consequences." It Is
clear, Forsyth further declares, tbat the friends
aud defenders of the Constitution, by wbtoh it
means the Houtbern Rebels and tbe Northern
opponents of the war Raphael Semmei and C.
L ValiandlKbam, for example nve foroorue
and gives buck enough, and should now bait
and take anoiher step to the rear,
Hopes of "The Lost Catjsk." " General
Hampton bas altered In no way; not one honest
man south of Mason and Dixon's line, is
ashamed of the musket be bore or tbe sword be
drew In defense of tbe Confederate flag. The
man who says that he Is ashamed of It, lies."
These are tbe words of the Charleston Mercury.
And again It says: "We believe tbat we loughl
lor our rights, Uilven on byfanalloal radicals.
We believe so still. If there ia to be peace, tbe
North must aocept this fact. We meet on a
parity of good-wlli, or we meet not at all. We
ask no more than we give, and we give no more
than we ask. If It Is tbe expectation of tbe
men of tbe North that Ueueral Hampton, or
men of tbe boutb, aro to go there or elsewhere
with bated breath, swallow our deedH. reoaut
our principles, aud fawu at tbe feel of Northern
men, they mistake both blua and us. We meet
us lrlenus, or else as enemies."
FKOM A SOU TUB UN (STANDPOINT. Among
tbe Woutheru Journals which are anxious to
enlighten the negro, Is tbe New Orleans Pica
yune. It tells him tbat It would be muoh belter
for him to be in fad a Rebel, If It were true that
voting tbe Democratic ticket made him so
th'.n to be a traitor to bis family, o bis race, to
bis Slate, to bis country, and to himself, by
continuing bis slavery to a league and a party
"which design to put h Im and his in far worse
condition, aud to deprive him even more of
the rights of manhood, than did the old system
ot blaveiy itself."
'Gentleman Gkohqk." Mi. George II. Pen.
dletou, who did not gel the nomination for the
Presidency, lately made a speech at Lafayette,
Indiana, wherein be denounces tbe Republican
as "bell hounds," Hitherto Mr. Pendleton ha.
enjoyed tbe reputation of being something of a
gentleman; but this little iucldent shows him
to be quite as mucli a in aster of uugeuleel slang
a ia brick Poineroy hluielf.
Lobd Napibk, of Magdala, said In one of his
recent speeches In London tbat the "way to
defeat an Aslatlo enemy la by going straight to
their beads on every occasion." Tbe hero of
I be Abyssinian war not only enunciated the
true theory of AsUllo warfare, but hi method

necessarily adulterated, are the dearest, and that
gt.od pure Soaps, although apparently dearer, are tbe
cheapest. They have reason to know that their teach,

ligent housekeepers, and believing tbe time bas come
when a really buperlor Soap will be appreciated, they
now put in tbe market an anloie wbtob tbey are con
fident Is tbe best Family Washing Soap ever offered
to tbe people ol tbls or any otber community.

Tbe superiority of tbe materials used, and the che
mical combination of thetn, Is ot sucb a scientific
nature that tbe Merino Soap Is perfectly neutral and
mild, and cannot Injure the texture ot tbe most dell
