&he parson gaili) Appeal CAESOS CITY: Tuesday. Sptrmbrr O, 1S73. TUE PROPHET DECLARES HI5I- SIXF AND DEXOIXIES TKE FAITDLUSS- Erigliam Young is no tlangliill fowl, say nhut we may of him. He is not rf the sort of stuff to recant Lis long Lelil teachings, nor yet of the blind kinJ who cannot see the inevitable. lie knows that the old fabric of Mormondom, as he bronght it wrapped in the keeping of his own iron resolution from Xauvoo, from Council Bluffs and, more than all, from the lips of the canonized Smith, has reached and passed its culmina tion, and that the worse features, at least, of the Religion of Zion are fast becoming obnoxious even amongst the faithful: but still he bears up his standard and proclaims himself its unshrinking champion to the last. If they by whom he has sumunded his priestly person, and by whom he has bravely exempli fied his faith, hare a mind to desert him in his old age they may; but tbey go away clothed with his anath ema as with & garment and must know themselves as shut out from the true faith for ever and for aye. There is a Riehe'ien-like attitude in this standing at bay which glorifies the false prophet as with the sheen of romance and tho halo of dramatic light. Conrage may be misplaced, raay bo " worthy of a better cause ; " but it is courage nevertheless ; and all but the base and cowardly ac knowledge and admire it, wherever and whenever displayed. This fol lowing extract from one of Young's late sermons displays the misshapen heroism of the man and exhibits what his fairest and most capable critics admit, namely, the unaffected, and real, though, as we believe, fan tastical and absurd, honesty of his professions of religious faith: "I wish my women to understand that what I am going to say is for them as well as for others, anil I want them to tell their sisters: yes, all the women in the community. I am going to give tou from this time to the tlth of October next for reflection, that you may deter mine whether yoa wish to stay with tour husbands or not, and then I am going to set every woman at liberty, and ay to them noWgo your way. And my wives have got to do one of two things, ithcr round up their shoulders to en dure the afflictions of the world, and live their religion that is, polygamy or they must leave; for I wUl not have them about me. I will go into heaven alone, rather than to have scratching and fighting about me. I will set all at liberty. What, first wife, too? Yes. I liberate you alL I want to get rid of the whiners. I do not want them to receive part of the truth and spurn the rest out of doors. Let every man thus treat his wives; keeping raiment enough to cover his body, and say to your wives take all that I have and be set at liberty; but if tou stay with me you shall comply with the law of God in every respect, and that, too, without any murmuring or whining. You must fulfil the law of God in every respect, and round np your shoulders to walk up to the mark without grunting." Last Wedsssday seems to have been somewhat extra occasion in Pioche. It looks as if the dismal few who pretend to the habit cf sobriety were suddenly sucked into the maelstorm of a big universal drunk, a Forty-nine renaissance, an orgie of the all-night sort. It was the winding up of this unlimited debauch which was emphasised by the shooting of John Manning by Officer McKee. As has been already telegraphed, Manning died of his wound in a few minutes. He and a party of his friends had been run ning all night. The report of the officer leaves the impression that the deceased was a quarrelsome partisan of the lately killed Morgan Court ney. He accused McKee of being one of the clique who were respon sible for Courtney's death. McKee chums that Manning was in the act of drawing bis pistol when he shot him. It was. then, a mixture of bad blood and ft corresponding character of whiskey that made Manning seek this fatal quarrel. A lesser event of the general spree was the mauling of one Lew Gates. His fellow carousers borrowed his pistol to look at and then whaled Lira most to death. Other and still less important items from this CulJ d.y under General Barleycorn arc reported by the Record. They sound like the fainter shonts and distant expiring yells cf a circumbendibus snch as the blessed old davs on the other side of the mountains used to afford. The Jiscord deplores those too frequent sprees and their accumulating man killings, ana sorrowfully admits that "for desperate and bloody deeds of lawlessness Tioche stands without a rival, to-day, on the Pacific Coast, and, perhaps, in the civilized world." 0C YEAR OLD. To-day, one year ago, the " New " Aitkai. was born into the world of journalism. Circumstances have, since that date, justified a return to the old name, short and simple. It may be re garded as not unreasonable to hope that the coming twelve month may prove no less mutually pleasant to readers and Editor alike than that which has passed. XEW BOOKS.

The death G&ATP1.B at Truckee is fully described in an article in Sunday's Enterprise. Fuget, a Frenchman, was one of the fighters, and w hite an Ameri can, the other.

The bleeding and groaning men were carried to where they could be cared for. Fuget, however, needed but little care, as he was in a dy ing condition when taken up, and lived less than ten minutes. The shot which proved fatal struck him in the left groin, severing a large artery. He bled fright fully, and, as we have said, lived but a few minutes. He is supposed to have received several other wounds, how many our informant did not learn, as no critical examination of the body was made during his stay in the town. The wounds of White were three in number and of such a nature that they must prove fatal. He was alive when our in formant left tne town, but is probably dead ere this. One shot passing through bis body, from side to side, just above the hips; another entered his right breast and ranging back lodged against his spine; the third struck him in the lower part of the abdomen, passing through the bladder. White has since died. Ed. ArpftAi- ; A Thx Sctbo Tuiofii. is now in a dis tance of 4.320 feet, and is progressing at the rate of 93 feet per week. Mas urEDEEED at Waixapai. The Pioche Record of September 3rd gets the following information from a private let ter from R. II. Upton to his brother J oseph : "Day befere yesterday Jacob Dolan Iculed a man named Il;rt. anu tne ioi lowitit; dav was acauitted on the grotiud that he acted in sc-lf-dcfenca. The. trouble is supposed to have originated about a prostitute with whom ootn men were intimate. The parties had been drinking together over night, and on the morning cf the homicide, tht-y met in Dolan s saloon, alter interchanging a tew words H-.rt called Jake a lvia son of a b h. Dolan told him he must take that back, when Hart pulled a small four- shooter and shot at him, Dolan re turned the fire, and Hart shot acam, none of the shots taking effect. All this time the parties were not eighteen inches apart. Dolan now placed his six shooter against the belly of Hart, just above the navel, and fired, the ball passing com pletely through his body and coming out to the left of the backbone. On receiv ing the shot Hart started as if to go out, but on reaching the door turned and shot once more at Dolan, but, as before, with out effect. The Elkokiass are petitioning for the application to their small city of the Town Government Act. It is succep tible of being a beneficent measure as is daily exemplified here.
