Correspondence of lho N. Y. nvcnlng Post.
OatiEN, May 3, 1871.
When wo arrived nt this place, d.iy
boforo yesterday, a singular plow of
good fortuno befell us. Mr. Hooper, tho
Utah dolcgato In Congress, camo uown
with us. When tlio train got lu wo
found that IJrlgham Young, many of
his elders nnd chief officers, and their
wives and lUtighlers, had como up from
Salt Lake City, to welcome. Mr. Hooper,
nnd accompany him Home. They, with
their band and singers, filled two cars,
and by lho Intervention of Mr. Hooper
another car, containing tho party of
General Frunchot, of tho Central Pacific
Railroad, was taken on ns part or this
train, lly General Franchot's klnduesi
my own llttlo parly was takon along ;
and wo had hardly started, on tho special
train, when Mr. Hoopcraskod us all Into
Mr. Young's car, and wo wcro presently
Introduced to what somebody wiled
"all tho nobility" of Salt Like.
I bcllovi) tho ladles of our party never
thought to find themselvei In such
strango quarters. After somo general
greetings wo wcro seated la tlio two
cars for our ride of thirty-nine miles to
Salt Lake City; nnd being properly In
troduced, folia naturally Into con vena
tion as though wo had boon In Now
York. Hrlgham Young President
Young ho Is formally called when you
aro presented, hut Hrother Hrlgham his
people often call him took n soat bo
sldo ono of tho ladles of our party, with
two others In front of him, nnd con
versed affably all tho way down. Mrs.
Young fell to my lot a hanilsomo nnd
clover person, well mado up In every
way. Mrs. Young I moan another
Mrs. Young, also handsome nud clever
was seated beside another gentleman.
I bolicvo six or soven of Mr. Young's
wives wcro distributed through tho cars
and qulto a number of his children.
I will say that wo pawed a very picas-
ant two hours; and that, for ray own
part, Is all I can say. Of courso wo un
derstood that wo might havo remained
in Salt Lake City six months and not
havo soon n3 much of tho saints nnd
their families as wo saw hero on tho
train. Of courso wo wcro dying with
curiosity to ask endless questions aud
draw out our strango traveling com
panions. But of courso being ladies and
gentlemen wo conducted ourselves as
such ; and as they outho other sldo
wcro not unnaturally guarded, I havo
very llttlo to toll after all.
Hrlgham Young is a tall, stout, full
faced, robust man, who looks morn Hko
a hearty beer-eating IJiglish suulro
than anything elso until you come to
look into his palo blue, keen eyes. Then
ho looked to mo llko a man extremely
on his guard, and a man capablo of
showing his teeth. Ho woro black, with
a silk hat, and carried loosoly about his
neck thoday bolng a llttlo cobI--a some
what conspicuous roso-colored scarf.
This color was worn also by one of his
wives.
Mr. Young talked very freely with
tho ladies near whom ho sat, explain
ing to them tho methods of irrigating
tho land, the extent of his preaching
tours, and tho value of Sati Lako in tho
future. Mrs. Young Mrs. Amelia
Young, I suppose sho might bo called
explained to ma in llko manner many
objects of Interest along tho road. Onco
only sho touched upon polygamy and
then in tho most casual manner. Seeing
-ouio Indians, I asked if tho saints had
made anything of thoso pooplo, she ro
plied that tho girls, If taken early anil
trained, mako excellent nnd faithful
servants. "Mr. Youug," said, she, "has
had o io in his housa for many years,
sho is a very good woman, and would
not return to her pooplo." I procecdod
to nks somo further particulars about
li' tho beautiful and tho good nro not
always united, wo can only say that
they ought to bo so, fur they belong to
each other as' thu blossom and thu fruit.
A woman udvertlses lu the Nashvlll
papers fur her children, saying that sho
lias had twenty-soven, and knows tho
whereabouts of only threo of them.
Punch says; "What In women Iscallo
curiosity, In a man Is Braiullloguontly
muKiiiueii into tno spirit or Inquiry
tlio Indian woman, to which Mrs.
Young replied, with not tho least em
barrassment, " I can't toll you ; sho is
not my servant; sho lives with another
of Mr. Young's wives" sister Eliza 1
think sho said "who is not hero today."
To ono of our ladles a daughter of Mr.
bung related that her father had flfty-
vo children ; that ho was a very good
and.lndulgont father ; that ho could not
cry won moot them all together at
every meal, and thereforo took break
fast with ono half of them, and then
1th tho other half.
Ono Mrs. Young related to bomu of
our ladies that Mr. Young tnkos no
dinner, but only two meals per day.
llo breakfasts at tho Beehlvo house,
nd takes toil ut tho Lion house. Thoso
nro his two principal houses. Sho added
that all his wives do not livo in these
houses, somo having houses of their
own ; and Mr. Young goes occasionally
to tako n meal with one or tho other of
tlieso.
A Miss Young added that her father
U fond of dancing, and an excellent
dancer (ho is only seventy years of age,
you know); and that balls aro glvon In
tho theatre and elsowliero, occasionally,
whero ho dances with great liveliness.
I heard this, ton, fromothcrs; ho seemed-
to mo heavy and slow-motioned for a
dancer, but ho U an extremely well
preservod man, with' tho Uorid com
plexion of a person who lives much out
of doors.
"Wo had lust passed through Echo and
Webber Canyons, and tho Dovll's Onto

est and rudest seenery-.llko a long op lu ni

Lako City, all this was changed, and wu

nattiro distant mountain peaks, their
snowy tops seen across the broad ex-
pause of tho lako; tho beautiful Iloelc
Island in tho lake, and altogether every
thing lovely and Inviting whero before
It was grand and forbidding.
At threo or four hamlets abovo tho
