Brlgbaui Preparlne for War. By telegraph to N Y. Herald. Salt ,iAKe, May 4. The indignant feeling aroused throughout the United States by the testimony at John D. Lee s trial, re lative to the Mountain Meadow mas sacre, has led the Latter Dav Saints to apprehend the arrest of Brigham Young and other heads of the Church who are aceused of sanctioning the commission of that horrible crime. The Saints have determined to resist any movement against Brigham Young by the Federal authority, and to this end they are secretly arming and drilling throughout the Territory of Utah. Orders have been private ly issued by the military commanders of the famous Nauvoo Legion requir ing that dilapidated organization to be in readiness for active service on the 21st of the present month. Preparations for hostilities are par ticularly active among the Southern settlements, to which four boxes of breech loading rifles were shipped last week from the co-operative store in Salt Lake City, Night meetings and drills of squads of Mormons are going on in Salt Lake City itself, and it is reported some of these proceedings are conducted with in an inclosure, in the immediate vi cinity of the Lion House, where Brig ham Young resides. Brigham Young has boldly assert ed within the last few days that the Mormons, who have been driven so often and so far, will be driven no longer. It remains to be seen how far General Emory, Governor of Utah, will suffer these seditious pre parations to go. Prosperity and Peace. Washington, May 7.

Several gentlemen of that city are now here as cand.i dates for the position. They say that such a change is in the line of pacta- cation. One of them has seen the President in his own behalf as a can didate, but he makes no report of a favorable consideration of his case. A Great Preacher Paaelne Away. New York, May 7.

N Mound lain Concord Register. There is no money in the country; teoples pockets arc dry and dusty VVe will learn wisdom after awhile; but, much we fear, it will not be un til we have been starved into it. Farmers, plant something that you can eat, and plenty of it. Plant corn and potatoes, sow wheat and oats next fall, the fuss may last two or three years in Europe. Get on hand a supply of provisions and let cotton get a little scarce, and then you will begin to learn something about pros perity. One thing is certain, it is a iosing business to pay five dollarn a sack for wheat, a dollar a Vmshel for -corn, twenty cents for bacon, and raise and sell cotton for nine cents a jjound. THE VOL.

The oolored Methodist camp meeting at Piney Bluff, a few miles up the Cape Fear, commences to morrow. A large attendance is expected. Winds mostly from the North west to southwest, clear or partly cloudy weather, stationary or rising temperature and rising barometer, are the indications for this section to-day.

Judging from the chilliness of the atmos phere late in the afternoon, and the threat ening appearance of the clouds, there must have been rain and hail both not very far from here. Fraudulent Recommendations. We again caution housekeepers to be careful that they are not imposed upon by false certificates of character from ser vants out of employment. Our attention has been called to the fact that a family in this city recently found it necessary to get rid of a servant for inattention to duty, and subsequently the woman called upon the lady of the house for a recommendation wuiclfwas refused. The ex-servant then got one of her friends to write a recom mendation and forge the lady's name to it, armed with which she west out to seek employment; but it happened that the cer lificate was so badly written and the spell ing so outragcoua and ridiculous that sus picions as to its genuineness were at once aroused, and a note was written to the lady by one of the parties upon whom the ser vant had tried to impose the forged paper, calling her attention to the matter. The lady informed her husband of the circum staance, who immediately hunted up the woman and succeeded in getting posses sion of the fraudulent recommendation, which reads as follows : ' 1 Wilmington, N. C, April 28, 1877. "E B have bin liveing with mee 1 year and 6 months, and is of a good as iar as is cook and scour, wash and iron and do any little thing that comes." This had no signature, but another cer tificate was written on the same piece of paper, to which the name was appended, as follows : Wilmington, N. C, April the 27, '77. iu nas Din nveing with mee l yiear and 6 months and is of a good caractor as far as i can see can cook as good as can bee cooned memorial matters. We are requested to state that the school room of Misses Burr and James, in the rear of St. James' Church, on Market street, will be the headquarters of the Ladies' Memorial Association to-morrow.

UUtVCB, UiU., YVLIIUU ji 111 UC UlSpUStJU Ul IU their friends at reasonable prices. They advise every one to call and get the worth of their money. A Tribute to the Lost Pilots. Memorial services were held in the M. E. Church at Smithville, on Sunday evening last, in memory of the lost pilots. The church was full to overflowing and great interest was manifested by the people in the able and appropriate sermon of the pas tor, Rev. J. W. Randall. The members of the Lodge of Good Templars turned out in full force. Strawberry Festival. The ladies of the Front Street M. E. Church propose having a strawberry festi val at Meginney's Hall on Friday evening next. We hope the affair may prove as great a success financially as it is certain to be in other respects.

We had intended giving this morning a synopsis of, or some extracts from, the ad mirable paper on the "Insectivorous Plants of the Wilmington Region," read before the Historical and Scientific Society by Dr Ihos. F. Wood Monday evening. We find, however, on examination of the man uscript copy, tnai neither a synopsis nor extracts would do the author justice. We regret that we cannot give the paper in ex tenso, as we feel sure that it would be read with great pleasure and profit by a large circle of our readers. It is unquestionably one of the most valuable contributions made to the records of the Historical and Scientific Society. Uniform of the Whiting Rifles.

The cloth is of gray, trimmed with black and with gold facings, the coat being of the double breasted pattern and cut in the style of a dress coat, with epaulettes of white, the whole make up being decidedly neat, styl ish and handsome.

Henry, for merly of the steamer Caswell, and intended to supply the place of that boat on the line between this city and Ban Herman's Bridge, on the Northeastern Cape Fear, made her trial trip on Monday afternoon. There were about twenty-five persons on board, and the boat behaved very handsomely, the machinery working as smoothly as could be expected. The ColviUe, named in honor of the senior proprietor of the mill, is a very neat and staunch little craft, evidently well adapted in every way to the purposes for which she is to be used.
