gtiBrjslating Emigration.
A writer in tbj Jla California, after noting the
prosperity of tb) Mormons, alludes to the effective
means employed by them for securing emigration.
He says :
About tho tiflo tho first great rush was made
for the gold miJos of California, (1849), the Mor
mons had succeeded in planting a permanent set
tlement in the kout of the American Desert-the
centre of the tontinent. Fi YO years afterwards,
California had* population of not less than 350,
000; a vote of lf.OO . The Utah settlements did not
grow so fast,&ut they grow, and did not stop
growing as rs have done. Our population
now, eighteen* jears after the beginning of tho
gold excitement, is not over 450,000. our vote not
100,000. We Sa''6 gained in the Asiatic element of
population, b lost in the European since 1855.
In 1850 the If ih settlements were estimated at
8000 souls; noa they are estimated at 130,000, all
of the European races. Bait Lake City has a popu
lation of 20,009. and there are other places of six
to eight thousand. The settlements nave spread
in every dir rtion. They touch Idaho on the
north, KebraaJi and Colorado on the east, Arizona
on the southend Nevada on the west Yet they
are desert Ia* lu compared with the very poorest
settlements . this State; and yet it cannot be
said that the-'people are poor. In fact they are,
from di accountB, rather prosperous in the main,
and in mm y instances they are rich. Land ana
labor are carefully economized, and frugality
is tho ordefof the day in social and poetical
affairs. ThflJ_ ave fiesta and herds on ten thou
sand hills. /They have manufactures, and are
creating ma as rapidly as they can accumulate
capital to baild them. In spite of the frowns of
Nature, ol drought years, and cricket years, of
tithes, and m that, it is the observation of travel
lers who hare visited the Utah settlements, that
they are uriahing and prosperous. But the
greatest wonder connected with them is their per
fect s VB teni of increase by immigration. They
have theil preachers everywhere in Northern Eu
rope, all over England, Scotland, Scandinavia, the
free cities and small States of Germany, and every
preacher it au emigration agent-first to make
converts, and then to forward them to Utah,
where thiess is a s VP tem, part social, part religious,
and part political, to procure them bread; land
and labor.
The wonderful success of Utah is not, in oar
opinion, tithe as much due to the power of
fanaticism ever the human mind, as to tue elabo
rate system of the Mormon leaders in finding out
and collecting the laboring poor of Europe, and
settling tbam in their country.
The Southern States, which are now so desirous
of securing emigrante, would do well to emulate
this example.
l ase Ball-The Tenth Role.
The Pre dent of the National Convention has no.
tined the Secret aries of Clubs that hereafter the
loth rd dust be observed ss actually adopted,
and not as mistakenly heretofore, printed. For
the convenience of ball-players we reproduce the
rule, which is now in force:
,SEC. If. If a batsman strike a ball on which
one ball ha i been called, no player can make a base,
! on suojU a strike, nor can any play aoslo * .taso
"lflrWHsBrtiifistW li iillflsj^fBda iwo balls have
been caliea nor if he strikes a ball on which three
balls baja teen called can more than one base be
made byjfch player occupying bases; in the lat
ter event li o batsman shall" also be entitled to one
base. If Lo striies a ball on which a baulk has
boen calli. Sections 8 and 9 of the rule shall ap
Jy. In ither case, the ball shall be considered
lead authot in play until settled in the bands of
the pitcWr; in neither case shall it be considered
a BtrikeSJuid if a bateman wilfully a frikes at a ball
I out of ifa ir reach of the bat, for the purpose of
}strikinjjat, it shall not be considered a strike,
The Anti-slavery Standard gives the public the
benefi of its programme for Congress. First,
tho Fesident must be "deposed from office" in
order o dear the way. Next,. we must have, not
an e Sana to ry act, but a "new law of reconstruc
tion with more ample guarantees for our clients,
thjor rmcr Bia ven, and for all loyalists." The no
tic, "which exists," says the Standard, "by the
ons and timely aid of the blacks," must give
a Federal guarantee of their future equality
the whites-in other words, the Constitution
; be amended so as to give them permanently
'ght.of suffrage. In the thit d place, we must ;
'.'confiscation of the large landed estates of |
;ed in ibo rebellion, and free homo
yTbrmer slaves." "Add to this," says
fjournal, "Mr, Sumner's measure for edu

do for a beginning. Afterward, we

DEMOLITION OP THE LUXEXBUBO FOBTTJICATIOKS.
-Tho Prussians are very busy at Luxemburg
toking up all the guns and artillery stores in the
fVtress, the quantity of which is so great that it
til requiro a couple of months to get through the
{irk. There are a great many ancient guns among
e military lumber, some of which are valuable as
rioeities, but as nothing ebie. The Luxemburg
r' i lament bitterly the loss of tho garrison, which
not very unnatural, as it has been calculated
kat the Prussian* spent one hundred and ninety
iousand pounds a year among the townspeople,
i some little compensation, the King Grand Duke
ls offered to make the town a present of the
lildings previously employed for military pur
pses.as also of the ground gained by the destruc

ibd without the assent of the Chamber, the latter
id to meet on the 20th inst, to confirm the act.
?:ARTIFICIAL DIAMONDS.-Although all the known
surees of diamonds in the world are running low,
atoniahing quantities continue to be supplied to
(ii trade in Europe, and, aa these are unmistaka
0/ genuine, dealers are greatly exercised to know
sere they come from. While Borne are of the
oinion that certain parties have discovered, and
j bop Beeret, certain immensely productive mines
the East, others are quite as confident that
amo lucky chemist produces them by artificial
.jans, and has thus far kept this great discovery

J man named Kceppig, or Keppach, of Breslau,

A Musical Compliment.
The languor consequent on mental application,
and the drowsiness caused by burning the mid
night lamp, was suddenly dissipated last evening,
and our senses regaled by a symphony of sweet
sounds that made us throw pens and papers to the
devil, and resign ourselves to the pleasure of the
moment. Fortunately, our labors were nearly |
closed, and, inspired by the music, we Boon com
pleted the allotted task and were in full trim for a
fight or a frolic, when the strains of "Dixie" came
floating on the air. The welcome melody waa
caused by Mitchell's Brass Band, and the execu
tion was suoh as to warm our hearts; and our
imaginations, released from their literary bonds,
soared into ethereal regions, and we continued to
build musical air oastles long after the Bound had
been mellowed by distance. These courtesies
are the bright oases-the green spots in an edi
tor's life-and Mitchell's Band have our wannest
thanks for the pleasure they have afforded us.
THE CHOPS.-Further reports reach us of tho
damages done by the recent rains. The Wilming
ton Journal states that in the county of Brunswick
the devastation is fearful. The rice plantations
have suffered seriously, part of the crop having
boen washed entirely away. The plantation of Col.
Thomas C. McBhenny presents a most lamentable
aspect, a crevasse having appeared through the
solid earth leading from the mill pond to the river
about seventeen feet deep and seventy-one feet
wide. The immonse volume of water washing
through this opening pursues its course to the
river, sweeping everything before it, and causing
the greatest havoc. The upper bridge over Town
Creek, on the road leading from the city of Wil
mington to Smithville, is impassable, while the
water has reached the planks of the lower bridge, a
fact hitherto unrecorded.
1 ho plantations of Col. Jno. D. Taylor and Mr.
Wm. Watteis have also suffered seriously. The
rice fields of Mr. Armand D. Young and Mr. Sam'l
B. Potter, between the northeast and northwest
branches of the Cape Fear, just above Wilmington,
are several feet deep in water. Mr. Y.'s house is
situated a mile from the river, but so great is the
freshet, that no difficulty was found in proceeding
to tho city with a boat containing five men. Fur
ther damage is apprehended from the immonse
freshet which in a few days will be sweeping down
the river from Fayetteville. It is reported, also,
that the water mills in that entire section have
been seriously injured, the greater part of the dams
having been washed away, and in Borne cases wholly
destroyed. Indeed, the damage done to the plant
ing interest throughout North Carolina is fearful
to contemplate. The cotton crop is said to be
almost annihilated, while the corn is materially
affected.
The Philadelphia Inquirer recommends a pro
position of a Maryland friend of that journal
that the farmers of the Northern and Western
States form an association and invite their farmer
friends of the South to visit them and examine the
workings of the system which they have adopted
for the cultivation of the soil. The Inquirer
thinks this would have a happy effect in the inter
change of agricultural views and information
which it would produce, and in the removal of
social estrangements between the sections, and
the restoration of old friendly relations. The sug
gestion is a good one, and would probably do more
to promote reconstruction than most of t he devices
.ofthe pohticjan*-~ -""V- -~-.^-*r&r m
NEW SOUTHEEN WHEAT AND FLOUB.-A consign
ment has been received (the first of the season,
from South Carolina, per steamer Champion), of ]
fifty bushels prime wheat and five bags flour, from
the well-flnown firm of Messrs. Stenhouse tb Co.,
Charleston, S. C., and shipped to Messrs, Sten
house & Macaulay of this city. The quality of
both flour and wheat is vary superior. This con
signment is the immediato forerunner of others
now nearly ready, which will bo upon quite an ex
tensive scale.-New York Journal of Commerce,

The Pittsburgh Commercial announces that a
celebration of the Fourth of July on a grand scale
will take place in that city. The editor says : What
with balloon ascensions, races in balloons, weddings
in balloons, skating tournament, baby show, foot
races, sack races, and a list of amusements too nu
merous to recapitulate, the daylight amusements
cannot fail to be attractive. The display of fire
works in the evening will be on a scale of magnifi
cence never before attempted in this city.
