The Orangemen are a secret politiwal society of the British Enipire, vortposed exclusively of Protestants, ‘and its professed object is to protect and support the reigning sovereign of Great Britain, the union of Great Britain and ireland, and the succession to the throne in the present royal family, so long as it remains Protestant. They have Grand Lodges, District Lodges, and Subordinate ‘Lodges. The association was found‘ed in the North of Ireland in 1795, gatensibly to counteract. the .infiuJenee-of the Roman Catholic association, ealled the Defenders or Ribbonmen. The two opposite Orders soon became involved in open quarrel, frequently resulting in riots which the law. was powerless, to prevent. The processions of Orangemen’ dre prohibited by law in England and Ireland, but not in British America. ~ In 1861,in British America there were ‘1, 200 lodges numbering 150,000 members. It will bs remembered that much exditement existed in Canada, in 1860, in regard to the efforts of the Orangemen to have the Prince of ‘Wales recognize them, and pass under their arches, banners, etc, This ~“ts the Grder about which so much excitement exists in New York. The 12th of July was the anniversary of ‘the battle of Boyne. The Boyne is @ river dividing the counties of Louth end Meath, in Ireland. The occasion was the battle by the Prince of Orange, William III, against’ his father-in-law James II, and decided the fate of the last named sovereign to tetaining the English: crown, as he was defeated and compelled to flee’ to France. The engagement may be considered: purely a religious one. The army of James, composed of the Catholics ~of Ireland; ‘with some Frenchlegions, ‘consisted_ of ‘about 30,000 stien; while William's army ‘numbered 36,000, and was composed of the Protestant Irish, English regi‘ments, a Hugenot battalion, and Some jgoops,from the United Proyinces. In the. army of James about 1,500 were killed, while. William lost about one-third of that number.— Orange processions in Ireland are prohibited by the Party Processions Act, as the commemorations of the battle of the Boyne, and the raising of the siege of Derry were always attended with riotous proceedings. Preparations being made in New York for this.célebration, their opponents, the Papists, determined to at‘tadk them. The same was done in’ Jersey city. The Superintendent of Policein New York. prohibited the parade, but Governor Hoffman re-voked his order, and told the Orangemen they would be protected at every hazard. Troops were called out.to support the police, and United States regulars were placed at the disposal of, the State authorities. This is . right. Every Order and Society has the rightto parade in the United States, and they should be protected by law in iat sight, being only’hetd Pons’ jules eas eal Pope's jubilee was celebrated .in atter two nights and one day’ stravel, I reached Ogden, then changed cars for Salt Lake, 45 miles distant, and after two hours’ ride through a beautiful farming country, I arrived at . _. my place of destination. I took 4 toom at the Salt “Lake” House, kept ‘. by Messrs, Tilden & Lawrence, on . . East Temple street. Sunday being my first ‘dry in fhe ". Mormon eity, and there being servi. . cos in Brigham’s Tabernacle, I availed myself of the privilege of hearing a discourse from. Brigham Y¥ oung. -. To speak plain, and give him a compliment, I must say, without any _. is @ fine, noble-tooking eld devil_.as you are liable to meet; His Taber nacle excels anything that the eye can behold for a place of worship. The mammoth organ, issecond to none in the world, also the ‘Taternadlé itself, which will seat over fifteen thousand people with ease and comfert. I cannot compare the outside shape of the edifice to anything but that of the picture of a bee-hive, Wwith'dodrs and windows on each side. It is enclosed with a stone wall laid in-mortar about 12 or 15 feet high. The enclosure consists of ten acres of ground. .As for the town itself, it is_laid off better than any on this coast. Its streets are. one hundred and twenty feet wide, including sidewalks,whieh are twenty feet wide. Instead of the filthy sewers that are in all other cities, you will find on esch side of the street a neatly eut-ditch with an oval bottom paved with cobble stones and running from ten to thirty inches of pure, cold water the year round. The streets are ornamented with shade trees of various kinds, such as, the locust and poplar. Yards are also adorned with flowers and shrubbery, and orchatds: ‘are-filled with all kinds of fruit. ~ Monday morning came,and Hound myself enroute for the mines in Bing‘ham Canyon, situated about 25 miles southeast of Salt Lake. ~ I arrived there at 12 o’clock at ndon tind stépped at the Bingham House. . I will’ now give your readers: a short description of the style of buildings in this place.: The first that the weary traveler beholds is a log cabin, where the Recorder of the West Mountain Mining District ‘resides; next is a smelting furnace, owned by a New ¥ork mining ‘company; then another log cabin; then for a change one made of brush;-then one of cloth; then for another change one built of lumber; for another change you can find one built in a cave of a rock; this one is used for a barber shop. . Some-spread their-biankets “on the ground and use the canopy of heaven for a shelter. As for my cabin, it is made of logs, but logs being very scarce wére laid a longway apart, so as to serve the use ef, windows,which are scarce also. We have twe hotels here, very comfortable ones, too; three stores, oné. buteher shop, vegetable market, one brewery, and several whisky mills, (two bits.a drink, ) one saw mill and two shoe shops. The cost of living here’is thé same as in California, taking everything into consideration. We have no coin, it is all greenbacks, The: mines are thought to be inexhaustible, but the same thing is lacking here that is in most mining camps, and that is capital to develop them. There is one advantage here, which is this: A poor man may strike a good lead near the surface, take out his ore, sack it, and sell it at his dump for what it is worth. Some are availing themselves of this opportunity. We have here two smelting furnaces. At present there ie but very little ore taken out, compared.to what there should be. The following is an assayed value of ore from ‘several’ 6f the mines.here: Buel & Co., $40 per protected. ton, on an average; West Jordan; $80 to $250; Watson's, $30 to $375; . Blue Jacket, a copper mine, from 40 to 80. per cent; Junction, $30; No . Zou Don’t, $60. These mincs are . not any of. them down over 125 feet, . _-: We} . have assays here that go up into the . thousands, but that is from selected . percamrcesrcbacdecmell tiost ‘of'them from 20 to 60. ania debt as soon as-practicable. An imDemocrat, which business men and all ‘reflecting mien will appreciate. They aremost. of national prosperity. Wothing in our public affairs canbe of more} vital moment than the successful management of the débt. Failure here would attack the Gonimon thrift, derange busitiess and be disastrously . ©4 from one end of the land to the other. It would destroy ourefedit abroad, expose us to weakness and the indignities of foreign nations, .and cripple ‘us it any war. ‘True, this redaction cantiot take ‘place without taxation. But ‘while the public indebtedness has been reduced some. five hundred millions, expenditares and tdxes have been enormously reduced—the latter, fifty-six millions by the last Congress alone—and the ‘national promise to pay -has been raised in value from sixty-nine to nimety-onie cents on the dollar, Since March 4th, 1869, the national debt has been reduced at. the rate of «ten: millions a month. There are those who complain that taxes are not-reduced. fast enough, though the work of reduction will doubtless progress vigorously at the next Congressional ‘session. Such. should remember.that. for-e.nation, as for an individual, the policy of self preservation is to get.out of mense debt is a humiliating bond we get rid of it as speedily as practicable’ without ‘too long ‘and severe taxation. This is. being admirably done, and is the best proof and pledge of present and future prosperity. ><-] Coxfrinictory SraTemEnts.—The Record says: The Democratic. editors ought to hold a Convention for the purpose of agreeing upot a line, ef-poliey,; for at present they conflict with each otherinan amazing manner. Thus, the Stockton Republican flatly denies that Haight made any compromise on subsidies during the last Legislature, while the Zvaminer, which is the Governer’s special organ, and speaks with authority, as emphatically asserts that he did make.acompromise, and seeks to excuse his course by a detailed explanation o alilint dite An Expianation Wawnren.—The Chronicle states that Mandeville, who was appointed by the Governor Commissioner of Immigration, vice Dunn, removed @ yearago, and who resigied in favor of Snell, because he found he could not legally hold -the -position, has been. re-appointed, “Snell having resigned. The bar to. Mandeville’s tenure was that he had bean & member of the Legislature that created the office. That bar cannot be removed, and, therefore, the public would like to know on what'grounid he contrives to hold the appointment now, which he ¢ould not ‘hold a year ago. publicans whose names are not’ already on the Great Register of the county, should lose no time in placeing them there. “The name of each voter must first go upon the Register, and then be placed on the poll list of the precinct in which he votes: Tt the last moment, as many enn inalined to do.
