BrIghai Young no more--A Checkered
Career--Hils Early Lifo--Rostoring
Polygamy--Hhs Lattor Days.
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

world ; while Salt bake Oity,. widS

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. SL,
