' :. The "lead" runs north-east and south-west, ns is the case in the Rocky Mountains, borac ot the pit?, or "pros pect holes," we opened. The most prominent feature of which is, that there is a hard, blue rock bottom which is very heavy, and which, we think, contains sonic precious metal It is our opinioti, that this "lead" contains silver cr.-ome other valuable mtal, which has not yet been discov ered, as the diners, who have been in troduced into this section, hive always heen told to "hunt for gold," and thus in hunting ft r gold !o?t sight of the ither precious metals. We are of the pinion that the heaps of rock, which have generally been designated as In dian graves were ths-ewn up by per sons, who visited this cunrry ccntu nes ago. when it was a vast i nnrie, asj lmtd marks by which they couid retrace their steps to their headquarters or boats for in those days mathematics had. not been reduced to practical use, is they now srs. Such conclusions we never could have drawn, had tint a gentleman, who ha been engaged in the mining busi ness fur several years in the west, bug gestcd it. The miners, whoever they svere, op erated just as the miners of the present diy. We also think, that we can dis cover traces of a trench, which con veyed water into a sluice box, and judging from the suitability of the sit uation, and the pits, there is no dc-ubt. but that wc ar.e right in our conjec- Hures. liare trees have crown. up in ome of the pits and upon the mounds composed of the earth thrown up.

' Sweet Spirit, I can not let this opportunity pass, without communicating with her who oft at eventide, and in the stilly night has flitted across my mind to cheer and enliven my thoughts. Thanks be to St. Valentine for providing a d?y in which 'tis permitted me to pour forth my thoughts to one whose beaming eye, sweet smile and lovely face have won my heart, and kindled a flame of pare love upon its altar. Thoughts; of you, my gentle queen, are wont continually to steal across ray mind gentle, and refreshing as the dew drops, which silently nestle them selves amid the leaflets of the roses to reflect the rays of the morning sun in beauteous rainbow tints and to refresh he drooping flower queens. Each mes senger, a3 it ccmcvis welcomed with joy because it speaks of thee, my love ly Valentine. When I gaze upon the bright orbs, which in clusters and constellations of exceeding beauty as they troop their way across the vault of heaven ; each strange world more brightly shines, because it speaks of thee. Not Venus in all her zenith is more bright and beautiful to me than those lovely orbs whose bright beams have awakened in my heart sentiments of warm, deep, tender love ; and now sweet one, my lovely Queen, do these heart-felt sentiments touch no chord within your heart, causingit to vibrate a sweet response ? Wilt thou not send me some sweet messenger, telling me of your regard for me and thus give me a hope that you will one day trust your heart to my keeping. Sweet Spirit, hear me, and grant me this request. And now, fair one, good oye. May the star of peace ever guard yr-ux pathway though life, and crown thee with endless bliss.

Standing upon tl.'. broad steps thit lead to the Senate Chamber, I saw the eity enveloped in a gray cloud that rolled and swelled and bel lied up in wrath, and felt a deep sor row fcr the poor people who go to make up the population of this dreadful place. Entering the Capitol, I passed along the wide, beautiful corridor, and for a second glanced at the gorgeous lecep tion room of the Senate Chamber. It was alive with women, gayly attired chattingsome merrily, and others earnestly with the law-makers of the Senatorial Frg Bank. The gilded walls and frc?c ed ceiling, from which tumbled a'. multitude.-;' of naked babies and half-dressed females ; the tail and wide mirrors on every hand ; the soft carp e ? a and the fit ifn n i trg upho!.-tery. all seemed to nt and frame in the wo m?n who rattled out their small talk ro the dignified Senators. To one who ha knocked about this wrld a good d e a I, the ch - r c t or and pu rs u i t s of these women were unmistakable. Some were strangers, gnzing curiously at the leg'slative surrounding, but the major ity were the instruments of the rings and lobbies that shape and influence legislation so as to 11 their pockets with puhlic plunder. From the reception-room of the Sen ate, throngh the wide and narrow halls, and dark passages, through the rotunda to the hall V;F the house, one passes, or meets in groups or streams, the same material, garnished by crea tnres of the male gender, carrying in their countenances the same evidences of prostitution. - I noticed all the more closely, for I was on my way to the reporters gal lery to hear a debate upon the better way to arrest polygamy in Utah, and legislate for the better spread of mor als and Christianity. In the report ers' gallery sat the Devil. A quiet, well dressed gentleman fcnie jncXet was red ami his brecche were Mno, And a nice little hole where the tatf cani throngh." Ana ni3 oatanic iiajesty natt on nis countenance a smile of sardonic satis faction. He looked down through the softened light upon his children, talk ing and laughing, and tndving to and fro. They were the Saints of the Cave legislating for the Sinners of Utah". His Majesty laughed a quiet laugh, scarcely audible, as he watched the venerable Ben. Butler swing his pon derous belly over his slender legs, and Mephistophcles actually rubbed his delicately gloved hands in glee when Benjamin spoke of the great Republi can party being committed to this mor al more. 'The twin relics of barbar ism, slavery and polygamy, mast die together," cried Benjamin, i "Ah, yes," said the Devil, "and they die rich and Benjamin adminis ters upon their estates. I was with him in New Orleans, and his co-administrator was J. Wilson Shaffer, Quar termaster. Quartermastering was a good business during the war, and J. Wilson and old Ben. halved on the quarterings. It was rich unto Fatnes3. Now Benjamin, who has more influence over Ulysses than any other man in the country, has had J. Wilson appointed Governor of Utah, and has set on foot the great moral movement that fur ther profits may accrue. There 13 an other estate to administer upon, and the two are ready. What a delicious old fellow he is. When he comes to me at last I shall be tempted to unscrew my tail and hand it over to him." . His Majesty ceased that he might enjoy for a moment in silence the man of all men who approaches nearer the evil one in his mental, physical and moral nature. He looks like a devil. Over his eventful past one looks in vain for one good and one kind trord. cne cenerous emotion. ISat tor his clear, subtle intellect that keeps him in accord with his fellow men, all hV jmanity would rise up to destroy Deril 2aiCf ;fccre wi roucaea ea- 'wretched wi te keep, down jbark.aUej.

Hooper is a plain, uneducated honest man, believing in the faith ef his people, and very popular among he members of the Cave. I could not but feel sorry for him standing alone in the faco of the House and before the crowds in the galleries, vainly pleading for justice in behalf of a per secuted and abused community. What a pity, I thought, it was that the Mor mon's were not black, fn that case the same crowd that hung breathless upon the utterances of Senator Revels, would have gathered about the bloom ing Hooper and found truth, beauty and eloquence in all that he had to say.
