Tho pcoplo iu their assemblages will meet in another building iu the rear, uf which I shall speak. Tho work on tho temple building ap pears to be sutpunded now, I saw no vorkmcn, aud I was informed that no do finite period could bo assigned for its com pletion. Immediately in the rear of it is the beginning of tho tabernacle, a building intended for tho gathering o7 tho people. It is projected on a largo coalo, and is magnificent, and on a very peouliar desigu, in marked contrast with the templo de sign. It is to bo an oval building egg thaped.

It" covers a spaoe of two hundred and twenty fivo deip by ono hundred and soventy-fivo fcot wide, and is calculated to hold ten thousand pooplc. iloru tho teachers and elders will enlighten tho people and their united songs will go up. The cost of these buildings must bo immense But all is contributed by the members of the Mor inon church iu labor and money. Their system of tithings is adequate to work When I asked, ''What is tho estimated cost of,tho tctnplo and tabcrnaelo !" I was informed with a atnilo, "Wo do not calcu late things in that way.

I am informed that President Young hiunelf is tho superintendent -ond aotual irchitect cf tho buildings.

Trom tho Savannah Republican, Nov. 3, We would bo among tho last to cnoour ago a false hope, or to lull our people in to tho lethargy that naturally results from a aonso of scourity. Wo have never main tained that thcro was no hope of peace ex cept through the sueccss of our arms With tho tido against us, there is no, par ty among out enemies, tut even the uiot confirmed of "copperheads'' or "slavery propagandists," as tho reasonable men .it the North arc termed in derision, that think for a moment of acckding to any terms of adjustment that wo could accept ivith honor. Victory is our sheet anchor, and the only dependence. Our legions triumphant and our flag floating proudly in tho faco of a conquered foe, will bo the only true harbingers of peace. Tho North will never let us go so long as there is a hope left of restoring a Union that has made them prosperous, rich and insolent. All men at tho North, not thoroughly demented, must now sco the utter hope lessness of the struggle to Mibdu? us back into an unwilling union with them. For nearly four years havo they btrived with all their vast powers aud unlimited resour ces to make us recant tho declaration that wo aro of right, and intend to be a free, separate and iudopcudent people, aud to day fiuda us successfully resisting all their attacks, aud stronger by far than we were at tho begiuning.

We have no doubt of the re-election of Lnooln, und bclievo such a result to tho contest would bo best for us. Again firm ly seated iu)powcr, ho would havo no mo tive to purtuo a content that has grown hopeless, and at tho same time luiuous to his Government and people.

A Thrilling Story. As early as 003, Erriok Uaudo, an Icelandic ohiof, fitten out an expedition of twenty fivo galleys at Sontoll, and having manned thorn with sufficient orews of col- oniets, set forth lrom Iceland to what ap peared to bo a inoro congenial climate. They sailed upou tho ocean fifteen days, and saw no land. The next day brought with it atorm,and many a gallant ves id sunk in tho deep. Mountains of ioo covered tho wa'er as far as tho oyo oould reach, and but few gilloys escaped des truction. The morning of tho 17th was clear and eloudUss; tho sea was calm, and far away to tha northward could bo seon thu glare of iou fields reflected on tho sky. Tho remains of the .'battered fleet gathered together to pursue their voyage, ;but the galley of lirrick llando was not there. Tho crew of the galley whieh was driv en further down thau tho rest reported that as tho morning broke, tho large fields of ioo that covered tho ocean wero driven by the current past them, and that they beheld tho galloy of Erriok llandc born by resistless force and speed of the wind before a tremendous field of ice ; her erew had lost all coutrol over her, and thoy Were tossing their arms in wild agony. Scarcely a moment had elapsed cro it was walled in by a hundred ico hills, and tho whole mass moved forward and was soon bejond the horizon. That tho galloy of the narrator esoaped was wonderful ; it lemaiucd however, uncontradicted and tho vessel of Krrick Haudc was uevcr moro seen. Haifa century after that, a Danish col onel was established on tho western coast 01 -reClllana. 1UC CrCW Ot 1110 VCSSOl wbich cauM tl,u cohnUta thither, in their excursions into the interior, crossed a range of hills that stretched to 'the north ward ; thoy had approached uoarcr to the pole than any prooeding adventures. Up on looking down from the summit of the hills they beheld a vast and interminable field of ice, undulating iu various places, and formed into a thousand grotesque shape3. They saw, not far from tho shore, a fig ure of an ioed vessel, with glittering icic les instead of mastsjarri-iing from it. Curi osited prompted them to approach, and thov behold a dismal sight. Figures of men in every attitude of woo were upon the deck, but tbey were icy things then ; one firu-o alone stood ercol and with fold ed arms, kand against the mast. A hatchet was procured and the ico split away, and tho features of a chieftain dis- o1osi''i1i Pallid aud deathly and froo from uocay, This was doubtloss tho vessel, and tl at the figure and form of Erriok llandc. 13c numbed with cold iu an agony of dispair has orew had fallen arouud him. Tho spray of tho ocean and the fogs had fro zen as it lighted upon thorn, and covered each figure with an icy robe, whioh the bhort lived glance of a Grocnland sun had not time to remove. The Danes gazed upon the spectacle with trembling eyes. They knew not but the scene might bo their fate, too. Thoy knelt down upon the deck andinuttered a prayer iu their nr.tiv'! tongue for ihe souls of tho frozen crew, thou hurriedly left the place, for night was githcriug aiouud.

Just aftor wo wero married, and all was nioc and cosy, she got mo into tho habit of doing all the churning. Sho finished breakfast rather beforo me ono morning, aod slipping away from tho table, iho filled tha churn with cream, and set it down whero I oouldn't holp seeing what was wanted. So I took hold readily enough and churned till the butter oamo. Sho didn't thank mo, but looked so nice and sweet about it that I felt well paid. Well, when nextohurning day carao a long, sho did the same thing, and I follow ed suit,and fetohed tho butter. Again and again it was dono just so, and I was reg ularly sot for it every time. Not a word said, you know, of ooursa. Well, by and by this began to bo rather irksomo ; I wanted hor just to ask me, but sho nev er did, and I wouldn't say anything about it to sftvo my life Soon wo went. At last I made a resolve that I would not chum aonther time until sho asked me. Churning day oamo, and when my broak fast .ho always cot nioc breakfasts when that was swallowed, there stood tho ohurn. I got-up, andstanding for a fow minutes just to give her a chance, I put on my hat and walkod out of doors. I stopped in the yard to givo hor timo to call ino, but never a word said she, and so with a palpitating hart I moved od. I went down town, and my foot was as rostlcas as Noah's dove. I felt as if I had dons a wrong. I did not feci exaotly how but thcro was au indcscriblo sensation of guilt resting on mo ull the forenoon. It seemed as if dinner timo would nover oomc, and as for going homo ono minute beforo dinner, I would as soon havo cut my oars off. So I went fretting and mop ing around town till dinner-hour oame. Homo I went, feeling very much as a crim inal mupt when tho jury is out having in their hands his destiny Life or death. I couldn't make up my mind exactly how she, would meet me, but somo kind of storm I expected. Will you belLovo it she vcn greeted mo with a smile never had a better dinner for mo than on that day; but there stood tho ohurn just where I left it. Not a word was said ; I felt confound odly cut, and every mouthful of that din ner felt as if it would choke me. She didn't pay any regard to it, however, but went on juH exactly as if nothing had happened. Uefore dinner was over, 1 had again resolved, and shoving back my chair, I marched to tho churn and went at it, just iu the old way. Splash, dip, rat tle I kept it up. As if iii spite, tho but tor was never so long iu coming, I sup posed tho cream standing so long had got warm, and so I redoubled my efforts. Obstinate matter, the afternoon wore away whilo was churning. I pausod at last from real exhaustion, when sho epoko for the first time. "Come, Tom my dear, you havo rattled that butter-milk long enough it is for fun you are doiug it I" I knew how it was in a flash. Sho had brought tho butler in the forenoon -and had left tho butter-milk in for me to exor cise with ! I never sot up for myself in household matters after that.
