My mind rt-verted to Ihe ckulkii.jr, filthy

-Yes, yes; I undersl'iud," shu the old

Vlce f. vhy, ihere ore not half-a-do2en
counsel of reptitntron superior to his in the
country. Yoir musn'i set up a woman's
notion n gainst a leading lawyer's opin
ion.
'Lei me tell Vow,' ftniwielcd ihe old la
dy, "that you t.ih'l easily have too much
respect lor a good 'woman notion, as you
can it nut hero s my storv:
About fifteen year ago there was a pub
lic pr tcession through the streets of this
city, for the inauguration of thfe new Gov
ernor. The how was uncommonly brill
iant; and I myself, with every remaining
person in ihe house, was outside upon the
from piazza. Wishing to wave tny hand-
kercniel along with the rest, I stepped int
the house for it, havi ig left it upon the so
fa, when to my astonishment, I beheld a
man in the from parlor, gathering he val
, uables from the mantle and table. 1 scream
ed - ut pretty sharply, as you may imagine:
and two or three women and Patrick, mv
sturdy Irishman, running in, we easily se
cureu trie, tniel in spite of his deperaie
struggles to escape. We lied hnn tip pret-
- . t . a a . a a . .
ty tini enu locKea mm up in an upper
room, wbiie i'ut run off for an officer. If
Uas a long time before he returned : and
while I was wailing, it occurred to me tha
1 had noticed a certain air of good breed
ing about the featu'es of the culprit, who
quite young; and that if he real.y were
tin unfortunate boy betTayeil Into a course
of crime by circumstances, I could perhaps
tio a better ifeed by hirn than to deliver him
over io ifte tlutches of ihe law and the in
rectious companionship of fr-lons.
Pat returned, with ihe officer; and see
ing ihe District Attorirey, a good friend-and
ttcquinntnmrr of mine, passing by at the
moment, I tjsked him in to get his opinion,
We went up stairs to our temporary jil
tnd found the prisotier quite safe, and much
fatigued with h PXr-rtions and with cry
in. ; for his li(,rnintiont seemed to have
been profound and biiter
We talked with him for quite a lng
lime. It a pj eared by his stor, ihat he was
the son or reiec:abl parents, and I hat he
had been well trained and educated ; thai,
however, being both proud and reserved,
and somewhat hasty wiihal, heJlad a few
months before had a difficulty with his fa
ther; who seems to have been a somewhat
harsh and rough man, and not to have ui
tlerstood his son's character, reproved him
with great severity, and even threatened
corporal punishment ; thai upon tha young
man's resenting ihis, his father had actual
ly mm nanus upon him, not precisely in
the way of chastisement, but in such wise

wa;', and after subaunog in tha ctt aotne-1
time by several precarious employments
nad at last become qijtte destitute anil ties
perate! that happening to be wandering a
long tie street on this day.it bud sud i-nlr
Occurred to him thai in the empty room? of
tbe booses he might safely steal enough to
support him for a time; and tnathis forlorn
situation and tbe chance of escape tempt
ing him together, he had ihstanly slipped
round the rear of the house, Jtnd had just
commenced operations jn the parlor when
I detected him.
Having beard this account, wa went
down stairs again to consult about it. The
legal functionary was inclined to think it a
cunningly devised,, pick pockers fable ; to
which opinion tha constable agreed ; but I
fell perfectly sure, myself, that it was true
from point to point, and I succeeded in
shaking a little theconfidence of the lawyer
But I was for freeing tbe youth, and forth
with sending hiui home, or at least putting
him in the way of earning an honest liv
mg ; but ultimately i compromised; but a
greed that if he .would plad guiliy t" the
indictment against him, judgment might be
announced and suspended, in order that be
might see clearly from what a penalty he
was escaping,
This was accordingly done ; the attorney
managing to expedite matters, and at the
same time to keep the transaction as private
as possible; and in a few days the young
fellow, having been kept in ihe jailor s fam
ily, and not amongst the actual criminals
was set. free, having been told that his sen
lencr would have be-n three years in the
State Prison for grand larceny
As it nad bee arranged, he now came
to my house ; where bis thankfulness to me
was touching and overpowering
'Well," said I, "now will yon go home
again T
uIever." he answered, "never. I could
not possibly do that. 1 should be oS ogam
at once "
And he spoke with so much determina
tion that I pressed tha point no further -
Iittieed, I had a little "woman's notion" o
tny own, which. I was ready to propose;
for I had foreseen thai my vounr friend
would strenuously object io a return to his
own home. He had told me that he had
been studyi g Tor college and was nearly
ready to go thither when he had left his
father's house.
But," said I, '-if t should help you fur
ther. might I be sure ihat you would never
be betrayed into any criminal ac ion ? . For
they are arsolutrly unnecessary. You
could always get subsistence, even if you
had to beg. And begging is better than
thieving.
He promised fa'thfully. I then infor :-
a a a a .a .a.
e.i nun inai 1 would bear his expenses tn
college and through it, and until he sho'iM
be able to soport himself; only let me be
assured thai he would not diccrace me :
and I spoke to him of his mother, in Whose
stead I was Irving to be to him.
It was with many tears, and with the
most affecting demonstrations of grutilude,
that he heard my intention. He was very
soon prepared to- enter, under the same
feigned name which he had assumed on
leaving home; did so; and which in my
opinion was one of the, truest proofs of his
purity or intention by incessant labor,
paid nearly all his own expenses whil- in
college, and afterwards, until his profession
was learned, and has since paid me the re
mainder; moved West, ar.d I as steadily
risen in his chosen pursuit ever since, will.
out one blot upon his name. He vet re
members me, as you will believe when I
show you the present he sent upon my
last birth day. It lies on the table ; there,
next you. - I read in it daily." f
It was the most magnificently bound
Bible 1 ever saw, and the best and clearest
printed.
'Look aUhe fly leaf." said my reverend
hostess, with tbe tear yet in her eye, which
the latter part of her narrative had caused
to gU'.ter there. I did so und read
ulo Mrs. S a-, next to God. my pre
server and benefactor 5 the inadequate cifi
of Henry C. Tarlton."
"It ,is possible!" I exclaimed : for the
idea had not occurred Id me.
ifr M -iaa .
-c-ven so," said ims. wun a smile.
Do you giva up for your disparagement of
women's notions 7 "
"Indeed 1 will," I answered warmly, "If
one in a hundred were as food ns thai. I
think I should be in favor of 'Women's
Rights,' even to the ultra technical extent of
having them for makers and administrators
of the law."
1 suspect ihey don't luck muck of their
due influence," he said slyly. "But in
deed, my young friend, the - story may be
worth remembering Your profession tends
in many ways to harden ihe heart and to
cause r'isiriisi Gf a). But strive not to lose
sighl oj any chance when reform and be-
nihcence may be substituted for oumah
ment; nor let any failure discourage you.
Be not wtary in well deitig."
I very soon departed, but I have never
forgotten t e noble old lady's story, nor, I
rus?, wnony failed to practice its lessons.
RESIGNATION OF A U. S JUDGE
The Hon. W. W. Druinmond. one of the
justices of the supreme conn of Utah Ter-
ntory, has Jorwarded his' resignation to
W ashington He thus sets fonh his reas
ons for resignin: :
In the first place. Brieham Younir. the
governor of Utah territory, is ihe acknowl
edge.! head of ihe "Church of Jes is Christ
or Latter-Day Saints," commonly called
.vionnona," an.i as such head the Mnn
ons look to hnn, and to Aim alone, for ihe
law by which they re io be governed :
herefiTe no law of Congre-i is bv them
considered binding in any manner
Secondly. I know that there is a secret
oath-bound organization a mono- all the
male members of ihe church, and to ac.
knowledge no law aa vb the law of the
'holy priesthood," which corrrrs to the peo
ple through Brigham Y- ung. direct from
God, he, Young, being this vtcesrerent of
God and prophetm successor of J oar oh
Smith, who was the founder of thia blind
and treasonable organization.
Thirdly. , I am fully aware that there is
tof men set apart by apecial order of
the church to Uke both tho Uvea and prop-
t rty of MTsina who in;iy question ilie au
thority of thfc church, (the m.mei of whom
1 will promptly make known at a future
timn.J
Fourthly. That the records, papers, &c
of rhe Supreme Court have 'been destroy
ed by order of the church, with the direct
knowledge and approbation of Gov. B.
Young, and tbe federal officers crossly in
sulted for presuming to raise a single ques
tion about the treasonable act.
Fifthly. That the federal officers of the
territory are constantly insulted, .harassed
and annoyed by the Mormons, and for those
insults there is no redress.
Sixthly. That the federal officers are
daily compelled to hear the form of the
American government traduced, the chief
executives of the nation, both living and
dead, slandered and abused from the mass
es, as wall as from all the leading mem
bers of lb' church, in the most vulgar,
loathsome and wicked manner that th
evil passions of man can possibly conceive.
TI1E EXPLOSION OF A BOILER IN A PRINT
ING OFFICE.
The Indianapolis (Ind ) Journal of Thurs
day last, furnishes the follow ng accout of
the late explosion in the press room of the
St-niine of that city, which was briefly no
ted by telegraph a few days ago :
About a quarter past ten o'clock last
mght the new boiler of the Sentinel office,
which had just been put up, and was be
ing tried for the first time exploded The
office was in process of removal from the'
old location to the Capital House, which
had ' een leased by the establishment, and
a portion of the presses had ben set in or
der, re,i dy for work, and most of the cases
had bee.i removed The boiler was placed
on tne west side of the open court or yard
of ihe house, and steam had been raised i.
it, for the first lime, to try it.
. The engineer and one or two others were
standing by at the moment ; several hands
were in the job and news rooms, and two
or three in the pi ess room. The explosion
lashed several of the men from the boiler
'oom into the press room, blew the boiler
bead anil a poiiion of th chimney thronnh
ihe intervening wi.ll, forced out the greater
part of ihe east wall of the wing, and let
the fliwr of the two upper stories down,

of ihe news room, was badly hurt, as was
a boy named t red. ivliidbarger; also; Frank
acnuyier, Jacob Lex. and a son of Mr.
Uoughfy, one of ihe proprietors. None of
these were dangerously hurt, we believe.
A public meeting was called to afford re
ief to the proprietors of the demolished of
fice. Tbe Joss is about 12 000.
Another account says:
The fire had been made under the
Doner a uttie over on nour, and no in
B- . t ,
dications were seen Ihat anv unusual
amount of steam, had been generated.
n consequence of some, difficulty in the
woiking of the pump, which was all the
work the engine was dome, Mr. Vin
ton and Mr. Grazier were about open
ing the steam-chest to see what the mat
ter was, as the pump was easily, work-

plosion occurred. The boiler, those say
who stem id have noticed most attcn-
ively, appeared to risfe from its bed. and
