"Never did," said J, laying down roy pen "let's hear lt." "They're curious creatures, widows is," said he in a meditative tone, "and the more voa study about 'ea the more you don't Know about 'em. What waa thia thing I've read about in Egypt, or some other country, that nobody could un riddle !" "The Sphinx, probably," I replied. "Well," be continued, "that waa a widow as sure aa you ever bad a granny. Everything else lu the carib has been found out bot them, and they're at much a mystery to-day aa the length of the North Pole. You may read the history of the world from Genesta to Revelations, and you'il find that widows has been at tho bottom or top of five quarters of all the devilment that's been cut up. Was you ever in love with one?" "Lots of them," said I. "You're a great gander-that's what you are." said be. "A man that loves one ana gets over it won't never get b*i by another, if he's got as much sense a? a ground bog. I don't consider I've got any sense at all, but I'm a little grain too smart to let another of them get all the tramps on me. The widow Horry that I was a speaking of, ta a little the hand somest woman! reckon that ever looked a man into fits, and 1 ought to be a Judge, for I've seen lots of pretty women In my dav. 8be was about twenty-five years old when I went np there to work, just in the bloom of her beauty and ns full of deviltry as a three year old male colt. There waa a ball over at Jenkins', and of course I went, for I always go where there's any fun going on, and generally act the fool before I get away, of course. The widow was there, drated aa fine as Solomon's lilies, ana flying around ns frisky as a yoong lamb in a rye patch. I got introduced to ber and asked her to danes with wc, end when phs Bashed her eyes at me and said 'yes,' I jumped up like I had set down on a griddle. You may talk about sensation, bat when she took hold of my band and I sorter squeezed it, I felt a sensation ns big as a load of wood, and it kept running np and down roy back like a squirrel with a hawk after him. I'm very lond of dan cing; but I'll bo banged if I know whether I enjoyed it that night J/ not. for every time she took bold or wy hana fd commence feeling carlon* behind my sirs and op and down my back again, und then I wouldn't know whether I was on earth or la a balloon, or on s comet, or anything about It It was undoubted ly a case of love at first sight, and a pow erful bad case at that. For a wonder I got through the frolic without making myself conspicuous or cutting up any extras, as I'm in tho habit of doing when I go into public. I'd set my pegs to go home nita the widow after the ball, bat just as I was fixing roy month to ask har, up steps a big, long, leather faced doctor, named Mab ry, and walked hot right off, before thy eyes. That riled me a little, but I kept my tongue still, inwardly swearing to break bis bon? tbs very first opportunity thai pirron icu itself, a saw there was no uso io saving anything, so I went heme and went to bed, and all the rest of the night I was dreaming about rainbows, angeis, butterflies, fiddles, widows and doctos*, mixed up worse than a Dutchmans dinner.

We had the pleasure on Saturday ol meeting Clark Mills, tho celebrated American sculptor, who arrived from St, Augustine, florida, where he has been the past month in the interests of the Smithsonian Institute. The object ol bis mission to St. Augustine was to ob tain casts of the Indian chiefs confined as prisoners of the government in the fort at that place. This work bas been completed by him, and he brought with hlr? jy.rfect casts of the sixty-four Indian chiefs at present confined there. Wc learn that these casts are taken by an entirely new process of his own inven tion, and which ho hos patented. Thc Indiana were remarkably superstitiou?, and showed a reluctance to submit to thc operation until "Long Wolf," a noted chief, who bad been several times tc Washington and had conversed with thc "Great White Father," and is, conse quently, somewhat more civilized, wai i induced to have his classic features cast The operation is thu? described: Ar elastic cap is first drawn tightly over tb? head, completely covering the hair, bul leaving the forehead entirely expoted On this le poured piaster of Psris, wbicl quickly barden? and thus gives the exsc snape rf the skull. The now orenaratioi is Chou laid upon the face 'with a ?of brush, the nostrils being left free. Ii three minutes this preparation hardens ssd ia very easily and rapidly removed and a Jae limite likeness of the Rcrsoi is obtained. This cast shows all thi wrinkles, pimples, eyelashes and eye jrows clearly and distinctly, and not i hair on the foco is removed. When tb cast of "Long Wolf was taken ton o the other chiefs were admitted to see tb operation, in order that they might b convinced no L-m was intended them They were exceedingly curious, sui watched the process who great inter?s) When the cast had been secured he ex posed it to them and their astonUhcnca was great. They looked at the cast, the at the countenance of "Long Wolf, Spain ead again, and seemed quito ox tod, and finally laughed as heartily s an Indian eau laugh, and seemed mue amused. He inquired of the interprete what ?mused them so. and wes infoi ?$ that they were laughing at tho "W^il lud?an,'7 the coat of "Long Wolfs" fea tores belog perfectly white. After this there ws? no trouble in tal lng tba casts of all the sixty-four chie representing tho four different tribe These oasts are intended for the Ethni logical Department of the Smitbnonla Institute, it being the intention of tl nunagers of that institution to obta! the casta of representatives of every nu in the world. A number have airead been obtained, among them casts of ts Esquimaux, a man and a woman, whic were take? by bim soma time sine The casts of tue Indiana are all neat Gieked and boxed, and brought along 1 m, together with a number of otb curiosities, the principal of which is large sword-fish, measuring eighteen fe in fe acth and two and a half fee'? acre the middle. This fish wa? caught l etvtto persons fishing for turtles near ? Augustine, and was purchased by Lier. Frats, of the United States Army, charge of the fort at that place, end 1 him presented to the Smithsonian Inti tote. This mammoth fish was akinn and prepared for the museum by an o Frenchman at Si. Augustine. He b ?bm secured a singular species of fi knowe a? the "wharf rev' a monet elem cracker, which resembles somewh a devil fish, and a flying fish, which li ter ia cut up in alcohol, the others bel stuffed. We were also Informed that while was in St, Augustine several of the I dian chiefs received letters from tb wives, Which were forwarded by the ol eera of the posse is the West. He c scribes these letters as very peculiar, a succeeded, after much difficulty, in i string one from "Waite Horse/' ant copy si another.

Two Millions far Seventeen Wlvee sud Forty-Four Children-Kio Directions for his Funeral. Brigham Young's will was read ou Monds/ in the presence of ell bis wives and children and a few friends. Brig ham Young, Jr., Geo. O. Cannon and Albeit CarrTnton are named as bis exec utors. The estate is largely real estate, and is probably worth $2,000,000. The will was msde four years ago, and bis youngest child, torn of Mary Van Colt, was then three years old. Brigham Young was the lather of fifty-six chil dren, and left seventeen wive*, sixteen sons and twenty-eight daughter*. The wi?l aims to make an equitable division of the property among all tho wive? and children, with no preference to any. Most of them have already bad some thing deeded to them. On this a valua tion was set, and it is to be charged to the recipients as part of their share, though not necessarily at the valuation he put on it. That is to be equitably adjusted whan the estate is divided, upon the youngest child coming of age. Meantime tue income is to go to the various mothers according to the number of their children, and the/ can withhold it if the children behave bedly. All are provided foi* as far as their present needs are concerned. His first wife and Ame lia are given a life interest in the Amelia Palace-a large, modern, new. fine bouse, but be is known to bave changed his mind ?be Jt that, chiefly because they de clined it for reasons best known to them selves, although nothing io or out cf the will bas ss yet come to Tight showing it, and they are not otherwise provided for, except by their share of the income. The prophet held many interests in trust for toe church and for individuals. His executors are directed to turn them over properly. The church is forbidden by law to hold more than $60,000 worth of ?roperty ; and so it was largely held by righam Young in trust. His friends will not entertain the notion that he ever abused that trust. There b no in ventory of the property on the estate, and it is widely scattered. With the country prosperous and full of money, it would be worth twice the above valua tion. Recently Brigham Young endowed an academy with lands at Provo nnd anoth er at Logan-the latter with 12,000 acres. He hnd determined to endow one at 8?lt Lnke, but did not live long onongb to do so. Brigham Young's directions for bis funeral, written four years ago, were as follows: "I, Brigham Young, wish my funeral services to be conducted in tho following manner : When I breathe my last, I wish my friends to pur. my body in as elean and wholesome a state as can convenient ly be done, and preserve the same for one, two, three or' four dsys, cr as long as my body can be preserved in good condition. "I want my coffin made of plain one and-a-quarter red-wood boards, not scrimped io length, but two inches long er then I would measure, and from two to three inches wider than is commonly made for a person of my breadth and sire, and deep enough to place me on a little comfortable cotton bed, with a good suitable pillow in size and quality. My body dressed in my Temple clothing, and laid nicely into my coffin, and tho coffin to have the anoesrance that if I wanted to turu a little to the right or left X should hare plenty of room to do so ; the lid can be made crowning. "At my interment I wish ail my family present that can be conveniently, and the male members to wear no crape on their hats or coats ; the families tn nut no blsck bonne? or dresses nor black veils, but if they have them they are at liberty to wear them. "And services may be permitted, as singing r.nd a pro/or offered, and if any of my friends wish to say a few words they sro desired to do so. "And when they close their services, to take my remains on a bier and repair to the little burying ground which 1 have reserved on my lot east of the White House on the hill. Os the southeast corner of this lot I have a vault built of mason work large enough to receive my coffin, and that they may place in a box, if they chooae, the same aa the coffin red food-?bes place rocks over the vault sufficiently large to cover it, that the earth ma/ be placed over it-as fine dry earth as can oe had-to cover it until the wails of the little cemetery are bid, which will leave me in the southeast corner. "This vault ought to be roofed over with some kind of temporary roof. There let my earthly tabernacle rest iu peaee and commit and have a good sleep until tho morning ol'the first resurrection -no crying world mourning with any one. "I have done my work faithfully and io good faith. I wish this to be read at the funeral, provided,that if I should die any where in the mountains I desire the above directions respecting my p'aee of burial should be observed. But If I should live to get back to the church in Jackson county, Mo., I wish to be buried "BBIOHAH Youno, "President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Dav Sainte. "Salt Lake, Utah Territory, Nov. 9,1873." - The extraordinary intelligence has been received in England of the disap pearance of two Slands-tho Barker islands-and the'i inhabitants. Capt.
