A Tale of Horror.
One of the dread mysteries of Mormondom
'Which the United_F"tates Judges in Utah are
endeavoring to- unravel, greatly to the con
sternation of the " Saints," is the horrible
massacre, at Mountain Meadows, of one bun
dred emigrants, on their way from Arkansas
to California. At the time we were told that
the unfortunate victims fell under the weap
ons of the Canosh band of Para,vant Indians ;
but various subsequent developments have
established the conviction that these were
merely tools in the bands of the Mormons
themselves. An eye witness of the transac
tion has been found at last, and from an offi
cial source at Salt Lake, a statement of his
account of the affair has been sent to the
San Francisco Bulletin. He says the massa
cre was designed and carried into execution
for mere purposes of plunder, to get posses
sion of the thirty wagons and seven or eight
hundred head of cattle belonging to the emi
grants. The witness says :
" While I was residing at Cedar city, I was
called upon by Messrs. Isaac Hight, John D.
Lee and John Highee—all three, Mormon
military officers—to go a few miles out south
of the city, which I did. There I found 30
or 40 others, selected from different settle
ments. We were addressed by the above offi
cers, who told us that they had sent out Ca
naan the Paravant Chief, with his warriors,
to destroy the Arkansas company, and that
if he had not done it, we must; and that if
any of them refused, or betrayed them to the
Americans, they would take good care of him
hereafter. Here we were all ordered on the
quick march to the Mountain Meadows, where
we found the emigrants, with their wagons
formed into two circles, with their families
in the midst, trying to defend themselves
against the merciless and blood thirsty sav
ages, who lay around in ambush, killina• them
as opportunity presented. Hight and Lee
formed their men into two companies, and
made a precipitant rush at the poor defence
less victims. The men inside of the circle
rose up, but instantly fell dead or mortally
wounded, under the fire of the wretches who
so cruelly sought their lives. Nothing :e
-rmined to be done, except to kill the fright
ened females, and their innocent children
clasped in their arms. Others clung with
desperation, to their bleeding, dying hus
bands, pleading in vain for mercy at the
hands of the Christians,' who controlled the
now more savage Indian assailants. John
D. Lee, now sent to the Indian Chief and
his men in ambush, to come out and finish
the survivors, directing him to spare only
the little children who could not talk. The
savages came instantly, with knires
and speedily finished the bloody work. The
scene beggars description. The demoniac
yells of the savage monsters, mingled with
the shrieks and prayers of helpless mothers
and daughters,while the deathblows were deal
ing with unflinching hands, and scalps were
torn from head's which bloomed with beauty
and innocence but a few hours before. Now
the work of butchering ended. The mur
derers threw the dead into two heaps, cover
ed them slightly with earth, and left them
to feed the wolves and birds of prey,' and
returned home with their bloody booty of
cattle and wagons, and a great quantity of
goods, etc."
The narrator of the above facts also fur
nishes the following statement of crimes with
in his knowledge. He says :
" G. D. Potter, William Parrish and Beet
son Parrish were all murdered on the road
to Springville, in the month of March, 1857.
All that is requisite to bring the murderers
to justice, is a thorough investigation by the
United States Courts. Henry Forbes came
into Springville last winter, from California,
and put up with J. Terry, one of our bishop's
policemen. A short time after he was mis
sing, and has never returned. His horse,
saddle and revolver were sold by Terry, and
put to his own use."
The Coming Crops
if we can believe reports from all sections
of the Union, the prediction may be made
with safety, that the crop of the present year
will be fully thirty per cent. over that of 1858.
This is most encouraging, not only to the far
mer, but to all branches of industry, a full
crop sets the wheels of business going, and
infuses life and movement into all the indus
trial pursuits of life. Not only will the yield
by the acre be unusually large, but the num
ber of acres planted is much greater than in
any year for the last quarter of a century.—
In the old States this is the case to a great
extent, but it is particularly noticeable in the
comparatively young, States of the West, while
from the fresh, virgin soil of the Territories,
wheat, corn, and other cereals, will be sent
into market in measureless profusion.
One effect of the large yield will be to wipe
off old scores between the farmers of the
West and, the merchants and manufacturers
of the Eastern and Atlantic States. The de
mand for breadstuffs in Europe will make
them sought after in all the shipping ports,
and upon these sales will be based a new line
of trade in such articles as are needed in the
different localities. When wheat, corn and
flour is of ready sale then the farmers can
buy, and the merchants will require heavy
stocks. The signs of the times indicate a
sure return of prosperity to every part of our
'country, and all should unite in accelerating
the speed of the movement. The holders of
produce must act wisely and send it forward
at the earliest possible moment. By doing
this, we will reach the foreign markets at an
early day, and also prevent the whole matter
being prostituted to scheming, speculating
purposes. More than this, the sooner the
produce is sold, and the proceeds received
either in money or goods, the sooner the tide
of prosperity will turn back upon the produ
cing classes, and benefit all concerned in the
different branches of industry.—Pennsylva
nian.
AN OLD MAN IN LOVE.—In Albany, an
old gentleman worth some half a million of
dollars, fell desperately in love with his ser
vant girl. He proposed and was accepted,
but the old gentleman's children learning how
matters stood, threatened him with a berth
in the Lunatic Asylum. lie became alarm
ed at this, and finally told the girl "it couldn't
be did." Young lady hears the announce
ment, and then talks of "cold pizen" and
blasted hopes. She consults a lawyer and
threatens to make Rome howl. Her lawyer
brings suit for breach of promise, and to get
out of the scrape, the old gentleman pays
$2,500.
Late accounts from Mexico state that
there was a movement at the capital in favor
of Santa Anna's return, with a view to har
monize the Afexican interests, awl Settle the
difficulties at present existing.

TED FAMILY SEWING MACHINES.
New Styles—Prices from $5O to $125. Extra
Charge of $5 for Hemmers.
495 Broadway, New York.
730 Chestnut street, Philadelphia.
These Machines sew from two spools, as purchased from
the store, requiring no re-winding of thread; they hem,
yell, Gather, and Stitch in a superior style, finishing each
seam by their own operation, without recourse to the
hand-needle, as is required by other machines. They will
do better and cheaper sewing than a seamstress can, even
if she works for one cent an hour, and are, unquestionably,
the best Machines in the market for family sewing, on ac
count of their simplicity, durability, ease of management,
and adaptation to all varieties of family sewing—executing
either heavy or fine work with equal facility, and without
special. adjustment.
As evidence cf the unquestioned superiority of their
Machines, the GROCER of: BAKER SEWING MACHINE COUPANY
beg leave to respectfully refer to the the following
TESTIMONIALS
"Having had one of Grover & Baker's Machines in my
family for nearly a year and a-half, I take pleasure in
commending it as every way reliable for the purpose for
which it is designed—Family Sewing."—Mrs. Joshua
Leavitt, 'wife of Rev. Dr. Leavitt, Editor of N. Y. Lulepcn
dent.
"I confess myself delighted with your Sewing Machine,
which has been in my family for many months. It has
always been ready for duty, requiring no adjustment, and
is easily adapted to every variety of family sewing, by
simply changing the spools of thread."—Mrs. Elizabeth
Strickland, 'wife of Rev. Dr. Strickland, Editor of N. Y.
Christian Advocate.
"After trying several different good machines, I pre
ferred yours, on account of its simplicity, and the perfect
ease with which it is managed, as well as the strength and
durability of the seam. After long experience, I feel com
petent to speak in this manner, and to confidently recom
mend it for every variety of family sewing."—Mrs. E.
B. Spooner, wife of the Rditor of Brooklyn Star.
" I have used a GUOVEIt & BAKER Sewing Machine for
two years, and have found it adapted to all kinds of fam
ily sewing, from Cambric to Broadcloth: Garments have
been worn out without the giving way of a stitch. The
Machine is easily kept in order, and easily used."—Mrs.
A. D. Whipple, wife of Rev. Geo, Whipple, New York.
"Your Sewing Machine has been in use in my family
the past two years, and the ladies request me to give you
their testimonials to its perfect adaptedness, as well as la
bor-saving qualities in the performance of family and
household sewing."—Robert Boorman, New York.
"For several months we have used Grover & Baker's
Sewing Machine, and have come to the conclusion that ev
ery lady who desires her sewing beautifully and quickly
done, would be most fortunate in possessing one of these
reliable and indefatigable 'iron needle-women,' whose com
bined qualities of beauty, strength and simplicity, are in
valuable."—J. W. Morris, daughter of Gen. Ceo. P. Morris,
Editor of the Home Journal.
Extract of a letter from Tilos. R. LEAVITT, - Esq., an
American gentleman, now resident in Sydney, New South
Wales, dated January 12, 1853:
"I had a tent made in Melbourne, in 1853, in which
there were over three thousand yards of sewing done with
one of Grover & Baker's Machines, and a single seam of that
has outstood all the double seams sewed by sailors with a
needle and twine."
"If Homer could be called up from his murky hades, he
would sing the advent of Grover & Baker as a more be
nignant miracle of art than was ever Vulcan's smithy.
Ile would denounce midnight shirt•snaking as 'the direful
spring of woes unnumbered.'"—Prof. North.
"I take pleasure in saying. that the Grover & Baker
'Sewing Machines have more than sustained my expecta
tion. After trying and returning others, I have three of
them in operation in my different places, and, after four
years' trial, have no fault to find."—J. H. Hammond, Sen
ator of South Carolina.
"My wife has had one of Grover & Baker's 'Family Sew
ing Machines for some time, and I am satisfied it is one of
the best labor-saving machines that has been invented. I
take much pleasure in recommending it to the public."—
J. G. Harm, Governor of Tennessee.
"It is a beautiful thing, and puts everybody into an ex
citement of good humor. Were I a Catholic, I should in
sist upon Saints Grover and Baker having an eternal holi
day in commemoration of their good deeds for humanity."
—Cassius M. Clay.
"I think it by far the best patent in use. This Machine
can be adapted from the finest cambric to the heaviestcas
simere. It sews stronger, faster, and more beautifully
than one can imagine. If mine could not be replaced,
money could not buy it. "—Hrs. J. G.Brown,Nashville, Tenn.
"It is speedy, very neat, and durable in its work; is ea
sily understood and kept in repair. I earnestly recom
mend this Machine to all my acquaintances and others."—
Mrs..M. A. Forrest, Memphis, Tenn.
" We find this Machine to work to our satisfaction, and
with pleasure recommend it to the public, as we believe the
Grover & Baker to be the best Sewing Machine in use."—
Deary Brothers, Allisonia, Tenn.
"If used exclusively for family purposes, with ordinary
care, I will wager they will last one 'three score years and
ten,' and never get out of tix."—John Erskine, Nashville,
Tenn.
"1 have had your Machine for several weeks, and am
perfectly satisfied that the work it does is the best and most
beautiful that ever was made."—Maggie .itimison, _Mesh
rale, Tenn.
"I use my Machine upon coats, dressmaking, and fine
linen stitching. and the work is admirable—far better than
the best hand-sewing, or any other machine I have ever
seen."—Lucy B. Thompson, Nashville, Tenn.
" I find the work the strongest and most beautiful I have
over seen, made either by hand or machine, and regard the
Grover t Baker Machine as ono of the greatest blessings to
our sex."—Mrs. Taylor, Nashville, Tenn.
"I have one of Grover & Baker's Sewing Machines in
use in my family, and find it invaluable. I can confidently
recommend it to all persons in want of a machine."—G. T.
Thompson, Nashville, Tenn.
"I take pleasure in certifying to the utility of the Gro
ver & Baker Sewing Machines. I have used one on almost
every description of work for months, and find it much
stronger and better in every respect than work done by
hand."—Mrs. D. IV: Wheeler. Nashville, Tom.
"I would be unwilling to dispose of my Grover & Baker
3 , fachine for a large amount, could I not replace it again at
pleasure."—.Mrs. IZ G. Scovel, Nashville, Tcnn.
"Our two machines, purchased from you, do the work
of twenty young ladies. We with pleasure recommend
the Grover & Baker Sewing Machine to be the best in use."
—N. Stillman ef; Go., Memphis, Tenn.

I think the stitch and work far superior to that of any
Sewing Machine I ever saw. On fine work. I think the
Machine would be hard to beat."—J. li Davie, Memphis,
