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.

The externals of this octavo are very
attractive. The binding is in green and

the new black outline arabesques and
fleurs de lis. If what is between the
covers is as pleasing to the other senses
as the binding and its ornamentation are
to the eve, it is a very charming book.

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. "We extract as follows
from the description:

shooting could tell which man urea tne
first shot. Fuget is said to have come
down the alley leading from Chinatown,
when he was met by White, who was
passing along the sidewalk. Instantly

White fell first, and striking on the edge
of the sidewalk, rolled into a gutter

When the firing ceased only groans were
to be heard, the citizens rapidly collected
and soon a great crowd was on the
bloody battle field. 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.

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.
