Death of Brlshaui Voong. tSjecial tu the Charleston Journal of Com merce. Salt Lake Citt, Aug. 27. . Bngham Young died in this city at 4 o'clock this afternoon. - The Leader Prophet and lluler of the Mormons was born at VVhilling hai Vermont, June 1, 1801. He was the son of a plain farmer, but MUIJUIH.ll - Mi Uf U I -""Lll IU LI bun a plausible address early in address early life.! He at first connected himself with ; the Baptist Church, and preached in that Connection, though lie was never regularly ordained. In 1S-31 he joined the Mormons, then at Kertland, Ohio, and under the lead ership of Joseph Smith. His shrewd? ness and (energy soon gave him influ enco.witli "thera, and in 1835 he wa8 chosen one of the Twelve Apostles. Soon after this he was elected Presi dent, and was sent out to make con verts. When Smith was killed Yonng was made-leader, and it was, under his guidance and leadership that in 1846 the Saints started for Salt Lake, the Promised Land. In July, 1847, he made a settlement at the present site of Salt Lake City, and from this time forth Young be came the very head and centre of Mormonism. In 1849 the colonists organized themselves into a State,' and applied for admission into the Union under the title of the State of Deseret J This was refused, but the Territory of Utah was organized and Brigham was appointed Governor. He held this position from 1850 to 1854. At this time, from the very considerable immigration and their isolated position, Young felt strong enough to defy the government, in ifi7 a Governor, who was not a Hormon, was appointed. His life was threatened, .and a large body of Federal troops were sent to u tan oy President Buchanan, to enforce his authority. A compromise followed, and the Mormons conbnea tneir nos tilitieslto assassinations. - Polygamy was openly proclaimed in 1852. and the l'ropnet sei, me ei ample tio his followers by sealing him self to Uany wives. In 1874, Ann Eliza, His seventeenth wife, petitioned to thfi United States uourt lor a ui vorcc. and nehding the suit the Court decided;that Young should pay f 3,000 for counsel fees and make her an al lowance of $900 a month. The reve lation of; the Mountain Meadows mas nrp. of-which You0g:was evidently the instigator, are still fresh in the minds of the American people.

Why the delay r Col. Bakerville, of Texas, , who, with Qen.

L. L. Polk; of Raleigh, Commissioner of Agriculture of the State. The Torchlight is after the Granville reporter for the Commissioner of Agriculture for misrepresenting the condi tion of farming in that great county. It says: "The small grain crop was large and excellent, and the tobacco area larger and the crop more promising than the oldest inhabitant remembers ever to have seen it, and as to the corn crop, Granville county bids fair to make more corn this year than she has done any two years in the last twenty, and though . hogs are somewhat scarce all we have will be well fattened and more than an average quantity of pork realized." . v ; I :L More fine Granville tobacco was sold recently. Mr. S. D. Callis sold in Richmond,' Va., getting $52, $35 50, 35 50. Tobacco is very low. But then read this from the lorchlighU "We are reliably in formed that Mr. Fielding" Knott sold two two-horse loads of tobacco, in Henderson last week, from which , he realized seven hundred dollars. Mr. Knott has a fine crop growing, and will probably do better in the future. His neighbor, Mr. B. D. Howard, sold the tobacco from four acres or ground year before last for $1,200." We have known tuai Deaien oiien. jo. j;. xieaier, living fourmiles from Oxford, sold the crop that crew for three successive years on ten . -. t. . ..t j acres for $4,000. But $700 will do for a load of loose tobacco.

The circumstances connected with Jke arrest of the parties are briefly as follows: On Wednesday evening last a colored man (since recognized as Jackson) called at a business house on South Water street and offered some jewelry for sale, fixing: his price at $3. The articles were worth much more than that, and the proprietor of the establishment, suspecting something wrong, made some excuse about not having the amount just at hand, but offered to pay him 75 cents then and the remaining $2.25 the next morning. This proposition was ac ceded to and the fellow took, his 75 cents and went off; Yesterday morning another I colored man (since recognized as Curlev I PorterV stopped : at' the establishment al. ! ---- -- wuM.wu by the man since ascertained to be Jackson to call and get "that little balance." The gentleman told him that i Ee couldn't give him. tbe money, as there was no means of knowing that he was authorized to receive it; besides which' it looked a little "suspi cious for his friend to send somebody else for the money instead of coming and get ting it himself. In the meantime the police authorities had been notified - add , it was hoped that an officer would arrive while this parleying was going on, but such was not the case, and Porter soon took his departure. Slioitly afterwards a police man came along and the gentleman referred to stepped across the. .street to confer with him on the subject, and at the same mo ment, as it was afterwards ascertained, the two men (Jackson -and Porter) 'were seen approaching at some d stance;-when'they discovered lhe gentleman in conversation with the officer, took tbe alarm, darted into an alley and disappeared. H i; Soon after the above . transpired fin offi cer was put on the track of the two roeq, but especially' i John' Jackson. ', He traced the' latter in the direction' bf Taddy'a Hot low, and from1 thence 'over the railroad, finally coming across him at lhe corner oif Fourth and BrunswickatreeU, . when hp was quickly nabbed. Jackson at first stoutly denied but subsequently confessed that hfe was the individual who offered lhe jewelry for sale, stating; however, that be received tne articles irom uurley farter. ' lie was taken to the establishment where he offered the jewelry for sale, and on the way. while passing a store on Market street,. Jackson pointed out a man in .the store' whom .he aid -was his friend Pnrt Pime whereup- ra M:jeaiTiaoai jw3Mo arrested, and thlwo.W4 aahseontlj uken- io guardlltouse'aad locked uj . :j The jewelry in question has beea iden ti4 fled by Mr. Bell as a portion of that stolen from his residence. ! Mayor'a Court. , J Quite a number of cases appeared before Acting Mayor Flanner yesterday morning; James E. Walker and Wm. Williams; two colored, boys, were- arraigned on the charge of; fighting in the market house on , Wednesday afternoon. -Neither of the Vyoung - bloods" were severely in jured in the conflict, and the Mayor or dered the case against Walker to be dis-; missed, and that Williams be held until means can be provided to send him to his home. He has been at work at Rock Quar ry, and belongs, we hear, in Fayetteville. Edward Broadhurst, Ben Person and-Di-aua Broadhurst, all colored, were next ar raigned; the first for assault and battery on the person of his wife, and the two latter for creating a disturbance. - The Broad hursts live in the Camp Lamb neighbor hood, having their residence on the first floor, while another family occupy the up stairs. Yesterday morning, about half past 4 o'clock, according to the evidence, the family up : stairs heard a tre mendous row .going on ; below, ' and thought at first that the house was on fire. On descending the stairs, however, they found Broadhurst in the act of chastising his wife; and it came out that Broadhurst, wbo had been out all-night, returned home that morning and found well, there was no use in inquiring "whose been here since I'se been gone," as Ben Person was dis covered in the room. ,Then the row com menced, in. the midst of which a Certain Person .disappeared very .hurriedly 5 and Diana was left to weather the storm as best she could. About 5 o'clock Officers Nelson and the two Davises appeared on the scene and the parties were arrested. ' The cases against Broadhurst and his wife were dis missed, and the Person alluded to was senr tenced to ten days' confinement in a cell on bread and water. j The next case called was that of Frank Cash, colored,' who had been arrested by Officer T. j.
