Brigham Young died at Salt Lake, Utah Territory, on the-29th of Au gust, after an illness of soveral days. Thus has passed away one of the most 001clratoelaractors of the nineteenth contury. His long career was checkored and remarka ble. Whether laboring undor tho inspiration of fanaticism, or whether coolly and persistontly laintaiining what he know to be a gigantic fraud, he succeedod in accomplishing won derful foats. 1o was born in Whitingham1, Vormont, Juno 1t, 1801, and was, in his early life, a zealous Baptist., being something of a preacher. He joined the Mor nons .in 1832, and soon rose to bo one of the twelve apostles, having been sent ix 1835 to spread the doctrine, then taught by Joseph Smith, among the Eastern States. So successful was he in this, and so popular did he become, that after the tragic death of Smith, in 1844, ho becamo president. It was under his leadership that in 1846 the Mormons made their almost 1n prtcedontod pilgrinvge to Salt Lake. Here Young has so managed the temporal affiirs of both the government and himself ats to render both prosperotu and flour ishing. He was probably inunenso ly wealthy, and by slicer force of will and influenco introduced the feature of polygamy into the Mor mon church in 1852. By the sae iron will, tireless vigilance and never failing astuteness, he suc ecb&ully conducted the affatirs of his unusually constructed comniuni ty, made converts, kept his people contented, and successfully resisted collisions, with no interference from the Unitod States. So long as Brigham Young and his colony were segregated from the rest of mankind, he was the sole arbiter of the lives and fortunes of all who dwelt in that fertile basin along the River Jordan which flows into the American Doad Sea. His ble-ssing was the touchstone of success; his anitiena was certain death in this world, with the promise of everlasting torture in the next. The "Danites" who were sworn to do tho bidding of their prophet, were inded the "angels of doixth," to all unfortunates that fell beneath that prophet's ban. The confes sions of Bishop Lo, who was executed a few months since for the Wholesale massacre of em migrants in Mountain Meadows many years ago, almost positively fastened upon Brighamn Young the crime of instigating and planning that hor iid deed. The completion of the grand trans Continental 'Pacilio Ilailroad was a stunning blowv to Brigham IYoung an I the Mormons. Skirting around the northern shore of the Great Salt Lake, and connected with Salt Lake City by a branch it quickly p)oured into the midst of the latter day saints a host of gentile immigrants who wvorshippod only the almighty dollar and despised Brigham, and who have maintained a constant war'farle against the Mormon church, It is impossible for a community so unique in its character, and observ ing practices abhorred by the rest of the enlightened world, to flourish when brought into ojoso contact with a superior civilizattion and Bi-igham Young was wise enough to see that his course gna that.of his people waro well-nigh run. This may have hastened his end, though natural causes are sufficient to snap the thread of life that has beeni spun out over three quarters of a century. What will bec6mne of the Mormon church eventually, is apparent to all; but It may be that ' under-Brigliam Yo-ngi son, who wvill doubtless succed him, the comnmunity will: oxist for somo yoeds longer, It is jt remakable faot that, despite thie1r religion, the Mov'rmonp are amowngl the most orderly people in ~e world ; while Salt bake Oity,. widS its streams of Wte,epasa. ropgtesyery stret, ,s'a terrg1m~ o 'die..Tht city will' temnai a upon his decaying flesh. In many respects Brigham Young was a wonderful man, but Heaven onily knowti what dark and canker ig secrots lie buried in the pulso less heart of the mightiest of the "Latter-Day Saints." The Tomb of the Butlers. ,1111ing Our sojourn on Saluda we vinited the old Butler graveyard at Butlor Church. ' This church-a square, lipainted [)ino building stands on ia rod hill in Huiet town shlip, between Little Saluda and Big Creek-twonty-thrco or twenty-four miles from Edigoheld Court Uouse ill the midst of a very protty coun try. Thoe church staids upon the preciso spot where stood the dwell~ lg of old Major-Gon. William 11t1ler, aind wats doated to the Methodist church by his son ,Judge Andrew Pickiens Butler. 1-ore the iutlers were born. So.al hundred yardis from the church, in a denso aind beautifil clumip of codars and pines, lies the Butler graveyard. It is surrounded by a low rail fence, upon the outside of which 'is a ditch. The tombs are all of the old fashioned, oblong, flat style, a1bout two feet in height. The brick worlk of most of them is en tiroly lildden by marble, there being marble slabi not only on the topi but also on the sides and ends. Here lio the bones of Major-Gon. William Butler and his -wife, Blehethland Foot, and of most of their children. Side by side lie tho distinguished brothers, Judge An drew Pielens Butler and Gov. Piorco lascit Butler. While by the side of her father lies Mrs. Emmala Thompson, the only daughter of the family. Tlhe fatlir of our towns man, Gen. M. C. Butler, if we 1in, take not, is buried in Greenvillo. Of course many others of the older aud younger Butlers lie buried. lucro, but want of space forbidi us to enter iito further details. And, among these tombs are those also of Zacharial Smith Brooks aid his wife, Elizabeth, the parento of the jaik Col. Whitliold Brooks, and the grand paronts of Preton S. Brooks, Capt. James C. Brooks and Capt, J. Hanipdon Brooks. Most of the tombs are in quite good order; but that of Gov. Pierce M. Butler, the leader of the Palmetto Regiment, is rapidly falling to the ground. Of the six children of Gov. Pierce M. Butler, only one survives-Piokens Butler, of Louisiana. His widow, his two daughters, Mrs. Bacon and Mrs. Porrin, and his two handsome and gallant sons, Loud(on and Edward ("Ebbio") lio in our village cometory, while young Pierce sleeps bosido the waters of Red River. Edgejeld Advertiser. HUMAN SA MIF.E RvIVED.--We are arodibly informed, though with, out details, that on Sunday last throo infant negro children were killed at the negro camp meeting at Steelo Hill in uppor Lancaster, by being stamped and rolled pon by shouting t women. Strange to say, too, these tragic proceedings took place not under the arbor where tho main croiwd was gathered, but off' a little wvayin tents, no two deaths occurring in the same tent either. Those circumstances throw around this extraordinary occur ronce a horrible suspicion of murder under the guise of religion. As far as we havo particulars it appears that a number of women wvere carried from the arbor to tents in ai very excited state, and that after being placed in the tents where the chil dren were these tragic scenes were enacted. Later information states that two of these children wvere killed almost instantly, while the thir~ one is dlive, but with its back broken and many other bodily injuries, and is expected to die. This p lace, Steele Hill, wvas the scene of some ugly ri>ting during a camp meeting there one year ago, and we think it is now imio for some logal proeedings to be instituted against some body.-Lancaster Lodger', Aug.
