Orangemen and their Parade.
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

Pope's jubilee was celebrated .in

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

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

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.
