Interviewing Drigham Young. A World correspondent being in Utah, interviewed the Mormon chief. ' He sayi : Brig ham heated himself, and after a few preliminary remarks about ^ the weather, which he likened to that in nj Now York city, I asked him how long ? ago he founded the Salt Lake settle- * ment. to " It was in 1846," said be, " that we ce left Nauvoo in the State of Illinois." tl) " A pretty long journey between here tri and there I It " Yes, a pretty long journey. But * we made it to escapo from persecution, fo We made our owu roads across Iowa, to every foot of tlie way. When wo got to Ck the Missouri river the Uui ed States di/ called upon us for a battalion of live q hundred men to assist in the war with Qf Mexico. We gave them, but they wore a considerable Joss to us." da " Did you know auything of thiB country when you started ?" " Well, yos. We had heard a good deal about it through the renorts of Colonel Fremont, the explorer, of whom at I suppose you know. Fremont, when br he passed through here going west, die- u{ covered the northernmost extremity of h( Salt lake. When he returned eastward ti( he found the Utah lake (which is really separated from Salt lake by only forty miles) and mistook it for the lower extremity of Salt lake. JBut as the water 80 of Utah lake was fresh, Fremont re- vc corded that he had found a lake salt at a one end and fresh at the other?a most unprecedented and unaccountable phe- cli nomenon." F< A lady now addressed the prophet, gr saying : "I suppose you adopted this di as your homo because it was so delight- at fulheref" a Anything but that," sai l Brieham. F( " You would marvel if I should tell you b the true reason why wo came here. It K was because the country war. bo poor ' that we thought wo might stay in it for- a ever unmolested." m He proceeded to srive an interesting aooount of the route they took across li the plains and through the mountains, u and of the appearance of the region on W| their arrival. I remarked that the railroads had since greatly disturbed their ? isolation. " Ob,"said Brigham, rather haughtily, " we don't peroeive that the railroad has lh had much effect here. The proportion 04 of onr people as compared with others 111 in Utah is mnch greater than it was in fifteen or twenty years ago. This city vc has thirty thousand inhabitants. Of re these one-eighth aro not of our number, th Perhaps, though, there may bo more sii than that proportion of outsiders, siuce cfa this is the very contor of the mining interest" Fl " Did you not live in New York State or at one time, Mr. Young ?" I inquired. tv| 41 Yes," auswered the prophet. "Why . do you ask?" 44 Bdjause I have heard my father peak of you?speak of knowing you in Cayuga county, New York." 411 44 Yes," I was there," said the prophet, aD musingly. "I married into a family b5 there. Bat it is so long ago "?he slow- or ly continued?" so very long ago that I W have forgotten almost all about them." No wonder he had forgotten that first t? wife and her kin. His multitudinous ar later spouses had long usurped whatever K place she may have had in his household . and his wornout heart. ol House Files in Yirginia City. The Enterprise says: Provious to at the oh&nge of weather which wo expe-ri- co enoed, the swarms of honse flies which at oongregated in certain portions of our re oity, and especially the lower portions, yc were enormous. In fact, the like has H never been seen in this vicinity. Even fo some of the hoisting works of the mines rQ around the city were literally covered . with them so as to present a blackened r appearance. In some looalitios fly pai>er ar and the various preparations of fly n< poison killed them in incredible qnauu- tr ties. One honse showed a nail keg filled Jl with their dead bodies. But, however ?y troublesome these little pests are, their D presence is a harbinger of health. They are generally found to leave or are lying tjj dead at the approach of any prevailing opiuemic. tj? It has been maintained by many writers of distinction that these insects, ' especially in out-of-the-way places, where no prepared food is found, sub- tb sist npon a sort of ethereal infusoria of "a so minute an organization as to be in- ** visible except by the aid of the most de powerful miscroscopes. Theso floating th atoms of life the flies gather up on their no . wings while playing about, then rub Qi them off with their feet and feed upon d? them, and this is their occupation, as ]u frequently seen, after having alighted bi and when rubbing off their wings with ^ their feet. The same powers which en- WQ able these flies to run up and down a . pane of glass or to crawl, back down, upon the ceiling, enable them also to re- ' tain this kind of food upon the feet till transferred to their proboscides and pb consumed. th Two Hnndred Bushels of Crickets. tai In Bull Bun valley, Nevada, the bn crickets have played sad havoc with the 7? growing crops. The ngly pests attacked au one wheat field of thirty acres, and in dr< an hour destroyed the whole crop, eat- Oa log the stalks off close to the ground, frc and then marched on to other oon- Yn quests. Millions of crickets that have u? been killed strew the ground for miles eai around, while vast numbers have imparted a most disagreeable flavor to ^ the water, rendering it nnflt for drink- m. novel means of cleaning ont crickets ' is the sewing together of three gnnnj sacks, lea ring small holes in the bottom ** one for the egress of water, This large di< seek is attached to the end of a sluice box, plaoed so that the water will run Lc into ii. The people then assemble} gi: armed with bells and bonghs, and with eif a great noise drive the crickets into the stream, which swiftly oarrries them no down through the slnioe box into the ^ bag, and there they are speedily ? drowned. At Painter's ranch a few 4 days ago there was a grand " drive," 00 - destroying abont 225 bushels of cricket*. 00 Bu Fakm.?The Norristown Herald Sara: When we see a man coming ont of ** a bear saloon, with the protuberance on ^ his faoe resembling an overripe tomato, ,01 we are forcible reminded of the spirited H< words of the late Hon.

United States of Venezuela. The island of Margarita and the east joast of Venezuela wore discovered by Columbus in 1498, and the whole coast ay Ojeda and Vespucci, in 1499. On entering Lake Maracaylo they found an [ndian village constructed on piles over ;he water, aud heuoe called it Venezuela [little Venice). This name was eventually extended to the whole country. L'he first settlement was made at Cumuia, in 1520, which is consequently one >f the oldest cities in the new world. When Napoleon, in 1808, made his brother king of Spain, Venezuela was >ne of the first Spanish colonies to de;lare for the ancient dynasty; bnt in L810 a revolutionary uprising took place n Caracca?, and on July 5, 1811, Venezuela proclaimed its independence. In L812 it returned to the sway of Spain. In 1813 it again revolted, nnder Bolivar, ind after struggling with varying success, the republic of Colombia was 'ormed in 1819, embracing New Granala, Venezuela and Eouador. A congress vas formed in 1821, and a constitution idopted.

The I wenty-one States of the republic have 1 tach their own legislature and executive, ' heir own judicial officers and the power o levy local taxes. The main purpose >f the union is that of common defense. t?he Federal Senate and House of Rrpieentatives are both composed of members deputed by the same bodies in the udividual States. The president, viceresident and congress of the States re elected by the States; the president ias no veto power. There has been an lmost continuous struggle between the Jnionists and Federalists ainoe 1847, the Jnionists desiring a strong, central ;overnment, and the Federalists the ;reatest possible independence of the everal States. . Save the Pieces. One of the wealthiest of English velet manufacturers, Mr. Listar, worked is way to suooess by years of patient ibor in search of a way to utilize silk ags. He begun by buying up all such raste at less than one cent a pound, and ip to the year 1864 he had expended tie immense sum of over fti ftftn in ruitl&ss efforts to find a prooecs. Noth- i ag daunted, however, he continued hie xperi meets, and within the pact ten ears has discovered a method of convert* ' ig suoh refuse into velvet of the finest uality. He carries on this industry in i j u gland, employing some four thousand workmen, and hundreds of travel- | rs are also employed whose sole busi- ( ices is to buy up silk waste in all parte < 1 the globe. The factory is said to j lave oost nearly $8,000,000. l A Business Jdka.?Some of the busi- J ess firms in oar tain towns in Pennsyl- x ania have adopted a credit check, like | treet railway tickets.

All for Drink. Some evidence given in n caso tried at the Leeds assises, when a man named King was sentenoed to eighteen years' ponal servitude for felonionsly wouuding his wife, excittd, not unnnturally, the indignation of Mr. Jastioe Denmna, before whom the trial took plaoe. King was enraged with bis wife for making a sign to the landlord of a "public house, which he had entered in order to get drink, not to give him any, as he was then intoxicated, and beat her about the head, fuce and nock so brutally with a stick as they w. re walking home that Bhe became insensible. The master of a union workhouse in the neighborhood, who was called as a witness, deposed that he was on the road on the evening when the assault took plaoe. Ho saw the prisoner and his wife, and her face was covered with blood. She was saying "Don't kill me, love;" but the prisoner. Duttinir his flst in hnr fa. a said he "would give her more when he | got her home." The witness was asked by the prisoner's oounsei why he did not interfere. " Why," replied the witness, "should I interfere?" The judge < indignantly told him to stand down and 1 "be ashamed of himself," and asked: i "What is it to come to, if Englishmen ] behave in suoh a way ?" The witness i did not offer any opinion on this point. ] i On the California Coast. 1 Whaling on the California coast is carried on to considerable extent by companies of Portuguese stationed at ] various points south of San Francisco. ' When a whale is sighted from the lookout, the men instantly drop everything else and hasten to their boats. This is < about the only time a Portuguese whaler i is ever known to quicken his movements. The boats soon get under weigh, j and they pursue the whalo until it is overhauled, one end of the rope is fas- ! tened to the harpoon and the other end , to the boat. The whale is then mode *' fast and cannot escape. The whale is I then killed by firing bombs into it till 1 dead. The bombs used are about eight inches in length, an 1 one in diameter. \ After the whale is killed the three boats < make fast to it and tow it into the shore; . it is then hauled as far up on the bank 1 as possible. The blubber is then cut off in pieces about two feet long, one foot wide, and as thick as the blubber may chance to i be. Sometimes it will be four inches, ( and occasionally eight inches. The blubber is then hauled up the bank by the aid of liorso power, when it is again (Tut up, this time in very small pieces, and then allowed to partially dec.iy. , Tho oil is then fried out, barreled up, , and shipped to San Francisco. < Pimples on the face, rough skin, chapped bantia, xaltrbeum and all ontaucoue aiteclioce carod, tae ekin made soft and i .m/vMh .1 ?

There is a little item in the history of obacoo thnt will be freeh to a good nany old smokers and chewers amongst he tribe of gardeners : Tobacco was >rongbt to England in 1560. Jean S7ioot, the French ambassador in Porugal, recejv d it from Fleming, who ?me from Florida, and it wan he who >ffercd the first example to Catherine de lledicis. The qneen took a fancy to obacoo, the oourt followed her example, md the plant, which had been formerly sailed Niootina. from the name of Nicot, was made Her be de la JRcine, and hesame celebrated as a panacea. The taste for tobacoo became so general that kings were alarmed at it. James I., king of England, in 1619, launched a phamphlet icainetthe nse of tobacco. Pope Urban VIII., in 1621, fulminated a special bull igainst it, and in all the churches the beadles were authorized to take possession of the tobacco boxes which tbey Tound in the hands of the faithful.
