I He rises to welcome Judge Mackey,. and extends also a cordial greeting to y ihr correspondent. He is n lino specimen of manhood?not a giant, hut of medium sixe, iron gray hair and whiskers', and wears a genial, kindly expression on his handsom o. face. It. is not at all wonderful that a man of such physirpie, and wit h his acknowledged qualities lor leadership, should he a favorite leader. 1 had not gone with fell design of subject ing the Governor to a set and formal interview in which tho reader would be tit a loss to decide whether "our commissioner'' or the Governor was doing (he talking. Our con versa* lion was,easy unit informal, ilegili ning' with the. natural resources of tho .State, the Governor took pleas ure in pointing from bis window the location of the falls of tho river, mai king the dividing sine bctwoou the "h?w country" and the upper country, which was frco from the objection able lent tire of swamps. Judge Mat key managed to introduce the political question by saying that I, a* the representative of' . ti Kepublicaii nctvspapcr of tho Xorlh, was anxious, to khoW the lluih in regard to a re ported division of the Democrats of Sctiih Carolina caused by the Hamp ton policy. The Governor was not unwilling to talk on the .subject. ; Ju-. deed, lie answered without hesitation*, saying;: "Yos, there is a division; bin," lie added with a twinkle, "J be lieve the opposition includes at.pro sent onl)* one man, ami he is a gentle man of fconmw hat eccentric political qualities;'' ? "Tho fact is," lie continued, "1 had so littlo to do iu (he way of further ing or mapping out my 'ptiliffy,' if Stich a term may be used, that there has hardly been a fair opportunity to test the question of its popularity." liqUAI, POLITICAL UKIJIT8. "Have you done any official act, eilbcliirg tire colored popple in their | political right?'' I asked. , ;? . ''Yes/I, was ' the answer* "Thoiq have been t wo or throe special elec tions, and as the law makes it my duty to appoint the Commissioners of Elections, I have, in making thefe appointments, been careful to give the colored num a lair representation. That will * bo my iulc in making all appoiu tin outs for elections, for I ,do not intend to deprive either race of its political, rights.' On ycslcr.Jay T, recommended to the House a resolu tion providing for the establishnxont of two State universities, one for the while and one (or the colored people, both to he equally endowed and sus tained by the State. 1 bavo studied this matter carefully, and I see no better way lhau the one proposed. Aside from the natural objections to educate the races together, I havo it from the best authority, frpni men who have had experience in the edu cation'of both colored and white, that ibe best results .in mental growth can - . not be-obtained by tying them down to the same course of study. lam jglau to say that my plan was gladly accented by jj the colored inen thmn scTves in the House, and the resolu tion was adopted without opposition." "Have you made any recommeuda tiou in regard to.the publicschool fund?" " ".The Legislature, .has actedfon tha^./ subject) providing for a levy of 3300,-. (lOO. That will be justly divided be tween the colored and tho white Schools." li(.?\v' Tili" (Ol.uKKIi IJJRpi.'M? AitE I.OOKj <1 T<> 11 AM i" l'< )N. The Goyerrioir having touched up ? . ?. : k 5 ... 1 on lijs policy of equal political rights for both races, seemed anxious to pur sue ilii subject further. "Here, n nv," tiaid lie, "is a Ictller I was reading, when ji)ucaine in, from Hon. Carlos Democrat; This is a specimen of the I intCrest the coloretl people take in tho I lampion policy. The letter enclosed a < em sponilenoe between Tracy and a number . of prominent colored men 'of that place. The colored men, it seemed, had addressed a letter to Tracy, asking him what would be the olfeet upon them of the new order of things. - Tracy had replied, and his object in sending the correspondence 'to me is t? ask whether his reply re | ceived my endorsement. I have not. I read it all carefully over, but, so far as it goes,it is all right, and covets in)' vie\vs exactly, as expressed in the last canvass,' and as repealed in my public iiIterances siuCe% 1 see he states the proposition which is the ground work of my policy?t he equal ity before the law of both races?what 'is law for otic must be law for both." The Governor passed to mo the re ply of Tracy, and I observed that the writer took occasion to say, with em phasis', that the philosophy of the situation in South Carolina, to any ?one who .-Indies it, is that the broad est banner of the Kcpublican jarly was llowii by the Democratic party when tho lader acquiesced in the-* civil ami political equality of all men . "Here' is another letter," .-aid the Governor, "which T received from a colored man, who does not give his location. You may read it. "These letters are among many thai 1 am rcceiving,jhnn they indicate thai tho colored people have con fidence in ni.y pledges. The Colored "members ol tho House ami Senate frequently consult me in regard to in a tiers pertaining to their duties." TK ItATMKNT OF ?OI.??KI) < A I.I.I'IIS, ' How is it, Governor, about your, receiving these colored members ? I see it stated that you deny them ad millance, while you freely admit the white members." "There is no truth in il. #J have hut one plan of receiving visitors.

Kt'liJL IlEStfiN ' II ATI I EU THAN r.F. DRTVKNi I nm'fthdronghly satisfied that the position I wave taken is the true one.

Th ?>.? we're not all present, for it would hii impossible for the Prophet to assent; bio his entire family at one time. Hiram Clausen, iVrigham's doiibje son-in-law, was present with two wives, several children, and photographs of the rest, which made up the. number to twenty-seven. Daniel II. Wells, with one or two of his .six wives, and Mayor Little, a nephew of the Pro phot, were also present. The form of introduction used by the Prophet was very simple. We were conducted all around the room, and before each wife he would say : "My wife Amelia/' or Mary, or Cornelia, as the case might be. I suppose wo said, "Happy to meet you, Mrs. Young," at least a dozen limes. It got to be very monotonous, and when we began, to be presented to tho Prophet's children and grand children j wo became so badly mixed as to which \vns which and who was who, that wo postponed all memory, ami conti tided our salutations like a parrot. Prighani Young's wives havo geh?rt ally a good oldmolhor-ih-Isrncl look. His first wile, whom he manic .I in the Stalls in his early youth, is a very venerable old lady. ?Sho lives ali by herself in a beautiful house, and is highly rospooled by nil of tho younger wives and their children. She is tlid mother of John \Y'-. aii'd Prigliam Young, Jr. All of his<;wiYcs aro re markable for good*Fohs07though thov arc all old fashioned and dross very plainly. The Prophet says Ann l5U/.a was the only weak?headed wile ho ever had. "T married Ann' Eliza,'' ho said, "to please her parents and keep her from coing ro ruin. Put slio played false to mo, wont oil'with strange men. kept me in constant hot .water 'with my other wives, and I was glad when she ran away, from mo, as slip did j from her fust husband. Ann Eliza wouldn't work. Sim was always light j headed ami frivolous." 1 find that till Mormon women arc accustomed to work; for no Morinau i family ever keeps any servants. When the work becomes too heavy in a Mornmn family for one wife, another wife is added. Each ot Lho Prophet's wives, we found, occupied separate apartments in the Lion House, or small houses by themselves outside. The metis of all,tho fami lies in the Lion House are taken in the same large room. In eases where a Mormon marries sisters, which is a very frequent occurrence, the sisters generally live together. It is thus with -two of Hiram Clausen's wives, daughters of Briglni.m Young. Mr. Clausen's third wife has a house by herself; BVighnm's Young's wife Amelia also has a separate house by herself, and exercise- a great influ ence over the Prophet. She is the favorite of the 1'rophcl's younger wives. It is considered a very fortunate thing among Salt La*;e.young,ladies when two sisters can marry the same husband. It> prevents any je'aloitsy, and such families, secui to move on very happily."'"Li order to get at the '?true inwardness" of the Mormon family relationship wo questioned several of the Prophet's small child ren. "Is that little girl over there your sister.?" I asked of one of the Pro phet's little boys. "So, slie'a my hall'sister,' ho re plied. "Is 'not her mother your mother?"'* I'continued. "2\To, her mother is my aunt." "Then you only have one mother?" '?That's all. All the rest are aunts." And Still at the hotel, when we ask ed a little Mormon boy bow many mothers he had, bo replied : "pour, sir.1' "What ! four mothers and only one' ] fatlier?" ??? . ' Yes, >ii; but next week I shall I, have flye/'sailj the lilflc follow, with ?Uli Ii if of pride. This little hay, I thought,'beats the orthodox . i^ew; Engl?nders. They Lk.mat. of J.btn'r forotiit hoisi, hnr. hero is h boy who boasts of Iiis lour mother.*/ We found that the younger daught ers oft e Prophet are opposed <o the l douhh*-wife system. One beautiful daughter of the Prophet recently mar ried Mr. Harris, the haudsatuo man ager of the Mormon theatre. We heard her play one night, and she showed as much talent as any of our risjug aetresse-. Mrs. Harris, when .-he married, stipulated that her bus band should never take a second wife. Another younger sister?a beautiful golden haired blonde, as sweei, and ladylike as any young ladies you will sec walking up Fifth avenue?told us that .-ho would die before she wo.ild iriarry a mm wh > would divide bis love with a second wile. So, as the Mormons become cultivated, I find the pfejudice against polygamy increases; Cultivation and refinement will eventually kill poly gamy. The furniture of the I.ion House is such us any well-to do limner in cen tral New York would have?simple j ingruiii carpets and red back chairs; j l)urilig our visit the l'rophel occupied his time in talking in a random, Seini I . . ; philosophical manner to tho grown ' people, ii'iid .shaking baud-; in a patri arch ml manner with the 'children. "Let's see, what is your name ?" he would say, taking hold of a 'grand child's hand. "My.naino is Xa!hani;:l,sir."< '?Oh. this is daughter Mary's little li<iy,s isn't it '?" UlQ Prophet would say, looking at Mr. Clausen.' It seems that Urigham cannot remember his grandchildren, lie says hednii't"try to any more. While we were talking a brother in the church called and said : "?Brother Brighnin, 1 railed to get your carriage for my sun's funeral." "Your son by Helen ?" askoJ the Prophet, feelingly. ' Vis, Helen's boy; 27 ytars old. He died last night." "Oh. yes; take the carriage, Brother ?lohn ! lie was a good boy?paid his tithing regularly, and took good care of his mother. Can 1 do anything else ?" They told me afterwards that bo was tho Bishop of the Thirteenth Ward who called, and from them \ learned thiit every ward in the city id organized into a bishopric, with a school attached lor the children. In every ward there is also a branch of the great co-operative store, where all the faithful trade. After spending two hours with Drigham'S wives and children, wo re turned to tho hotel] In the evening we met a very pretty Mormon young lady. Sim was engaged to be married to a young Mormon gentleman.. "Is your sweetheart going take more than one wife?" was asked. "No. Brother John has promised that 1 Khali be his only wife. Oh! 1 couldn't divide any man's love with another woman:" " But. he can lakp another wife bo sides you if bo wauls to," we suggest ed. "Yes-, ho cfin?I know he can" she .said, despondingly. Then she said, as if a blight idea bad struck her: "lint 1 will bo first wife." Things have.coniclo.a preLty pass when tho funny man has to compound this' sort of thing: "A thundering good sweetheart is the girl who clings to her Boanerges him to stay." A train of cars in Florida passed a man on horseback the other day and all the passengers cheered till Ihcy found that the horse was lied to the fence. Just Iis paterfamilias was congratu lating himself on the cud of'thc cost ly Winter campaign, the price of paregoric is doubled by the war, and the green fruit season just coming on. The first bather of tho scasou made an unfavorable report of the tempera ture of the water. Ho didn't stay long enough for a thorough and exhaus tive account. Blondes cannot wear the fashion able shades of yellow, and only bru nettes tiro visiblo uowadays. Tho J>loiides . have presumably all dyed 1 on-. ~ ' - The reason that the spectacular and ballet season closes before tho circus season commences is obvious. The per formers in the ballet resume their na tural labors of living skeletons iu tho circus. "I'm afraid it is mixed goods," said tho lapy to tho clerk. "Oh, no, mad am impossible," replied the polite gentleman, "all our camel's hair shawls arc made of pure silk direct from the wor ni." She is heart broken siuca she re ceived the following: "You needn't snoot me up lo yuro house no moro sunda nights a gurl wat leaves gum a sttckiu on the parlor chairs for a fel ler to sot on aint no gurl for mo. Jim." - .iinct? ... ? Nothing will so reconcile American In dies to tiio rigors of Winter so com pletely ns the announcement that one hundred of them who broke through tho ice have been married since No vom her to the gentlemen who rescuol them. Tl e i'Ja'taristcill Couricrmul GascUc arc at it again; Says the Courier witlx scathing indignation : "There aro six teen hundred drinking saloons within, a stone's t brow oi this olliec." Re plies the Gaulle : "Wo suspected as much." "We arc called upon," says tho counfry editor, in a recent issue, "to mourn lbs loss of the best and most trust worthy assistants wo ever knew," and thou his subscribers know that ho has lost his scissors and his pasto pol has boon emptied by roaches. A Chinese proverb says that when men meet they listen to each other, when women meet they look at each otficr. That's what tho Mongolian sort of girl does, but thepure Cauca sians who moot and talk about other women and girls. '?Evening dress," says Disraeli, "is a stylo of costume sanctioned by so ciety for enabling ladies to display their natural beauties with a profu sion wort hy of a Greek statue." Dizzy is noted lor seeing a groat deal that escapes tho attention of ordinary vworlals.
