Trk President's Mfcs.4AUK.-- On Tuesday, Deo. 3rd, the President' Message was delivered by hiai to the Senate and House of Riireiseii-Uve- s. It contained about 13.000 words, which at the uaual rate of telegraphing would take about nine hours to transmit e.crossthe wire. Ttiecrclinary business of the line interrupted Its transmission tor several hours; but the last worda reavhed this wty about 8 o'clock on ea- - structloa to the Saints, on a variety ofsunjecl tia vl u g a bearln g u pou their pre-- n t and future wellHicand happiness.

The question of women's rights is an exciting one in the east at tho present tune. But, leaving the dis-cussion of this fruitful theme to others who delight in theories, it is our policy to deal with the subject practically. Care should be taken to throw around woman every safeguard that will shield her purity and preserve her from con-tamination. ..No people cau ever attain unto any pitch of greatness who neglect the cultivation and education of their women." We have excellent facilities for education placed within our reach. If we improve them as we should, we will soon have women who will prove worthy of their fathers, brothers and husbands in the great work which lies before us, and become tho mothers of a race of heroes. EMrL0YMENTSFOU FK MALES. Eleven of the offices of the Deseret Telegraph Line are now supplied with female operators. In several other og ladies are being instructed in the art of telegraphy; and, before long, we presume, that nearly every office on the Line will be furnished with female operators. If they steadily apply thems-elves to their duties, we know of no-thing to prevent their becoming effi-cient telegraphists. In repairing tte Line and other out-doo- r labors connect-ed irithtbe Telegraph, of courue men can be employed; but for all office work, it seems to us, that females will answer aa well as males. There are so many demands for man's labor in this country, with every pros-pect of the demand increasing, that the education of woman, with the view to fit her for the lighter employments which men now follow, is a move in the right direction. There are many branches of business which she can prof-itably follow for which she has a pe-culiar aptitude. As surgeons, especially among their own sex, females have found profitable aud satisfactory em-ployment. There is no reason why some of our young ladies should not be Instructed in Burgery. Every mo-ther can appreciate how grateful the att-endance of one of her own sex would be In an Lour when skill is required, la preference to one of the opposite sex. Ladies cau also be trained to bo good book-keeper- s, dry goods clerks, type setters, &c, 4o. We are in a better position than most communities to Introduce female help into the va-rious branches of employment; for most people, in coming. here, have to turn their attention to some other busi-ness than that to which they have been trained. There is not that jealousy nere which exists in many other places, and jrhich leads to the formation of Trades and other societies to protect workmen in their rlo-hf- - Up to the present, there has been no carcity of labor here.

Bishops' Mef.tiso. There was a vrry Inter-esting Bishops' meeting at the City Hall last night, which was attended by iTesldentB Young and D. II. Wells, B. Youn?,Junr.t Bishop Hunter and his Counselors I-- W.Hardy and J. C. Little, with representatives from all the wards in the eity aud trorn Brighton Ward. Various mailers were the subject of remark hy Bishop Hunter, who urged ttie payment of the 1. K. Fund debts. President Young Invited the Bishops and their Counselors tw attend the Tneoloylcal class to be commenced next Monday evening att he City Hall. 'hesulect of the poor In this city waa taken up aud considered; and President Young mov-ed that henceforth the Bishops take rare of the poor iu their several wards Instead of their be-ing aupplted from ttio General Tlihlng btore aa at present. The motion elicited remarks from a number of the brethren, all of whom expressed their ap-preciation of its wisdom; and much Interest waa manifested In the condition of the poor, while a liberality was given expression to which waa reditable to the hea ls and hearts of the speak- ers. Bishop F D. Woolley queried from what source the funds to sustain the poor were to Le derived, whet her from Tubing or donation. President Young said that at the monthly fast day, In thedays of Joseph, tho Prophet, t tie breth len donated of tbrlr substance to help the poor; and that If the same were faithfully dune now there would be more than tnoimli to sup-ply tho wants of the pMr In our midst. Those who thus exercise their liberality are propor-ttihoenatrteultyh ofblweshsiecdh woafs Ihe Ixrd a principle, rceogniKt d by all pres- ent. He also recommended that it mi liable building in eucu ward be used for I lie. MHir, Hint several persons may reside lotetlu r, w bieh he nrne. 'or the sake of economy, and for other rca:tons. The President's reb. Arks and smtgestlona tnt the hearty concurrence of the bretnreii present; aud those who spoke expressed themselves warmly as to the good results which w ould arie from their practical application. It was decid-ed that the counsel and 8uui(estiens given with regard to the poor should be acted upon imme-diately. FROM MOSDAY'S DAILY. ..Sabbath Meltings. Elder J. C. Little re-ferred to his early connection with the Church and the testimonies which he received, when called to accompany the Pioneers.that President Brlgham Young waa the man chosen by the Lord to preside over the Church. He also rela-ted Instances, which occurred In these valleys, of his having been sent to perform certain la-tle- s, and havlngpreiul.ses luaOo to hlm-whlc-he could not believe at tho time would be ful-filled; yet they were verified to the very letter, proving thatthe infplration of the Lerd dicta-le- d them, and giving an assurance that evidence of the divine authority w hich directs through the Priesthood will Xuilow obedience to Its re-quEirledmerents. George Q.Cannon tpoke of tho move-ment now being made in lavor of education, and urged the Importance of the .Saints being pre-pared for the great events that are rapldiy ap-proaching, Vy acquiring and storing up all the netul knowledge which they can obtain. He also urged upon mothers the great Importance of the responsibilities placed upon them In tralnlngthu young minds commuted to their care. Afternoon. rreldent B. Young lustrnctevl the congrega-tion on various principles, and pointed out the best course to be adopted with regard to caring for our poor. They are very lew in number, but tthheeiyr have to lie provided lor; and in drawing support lroiu the General 'Jithlng Store much time is lost which might be usefully em-ployed and turned to productive advantaae. Hn recommended IheBishops to look alter thepoer in their various wards, to find a suitable place in each ward where they can reside and be comfortable, to find employment for the slstera at knitting, sewing, crocheting, lace-makin- g, and similar kinds of work which tbey can dt; andtofind something for the brethren to do, who are not able to go out and rut and saw wood, or do any heavy labor, at bottoming chairs, making door mats of tings, weaving wil-low baskets, aud such kinds of employment. He relerred to the origin of fast days in the Churcli, and their objects, one of which was to have tli food ot every kind that was saved by fasting donated lor the nsa of the poor; aud showed that if the Hour, merit, fruit, xc. saved by one day's fasting oi tiie w hole community in a month, were placed iu the hands of ttu Bish-ops for the poor, there would be more than enough to supply the wants of every person iu the Territory, whose necessities would give them la claim upon the liberality of their richer breth-ren and sisters. He also recommended that Female Relief So-cieties be immediately lor med in tho various wards, to look alter the poor and minister to their wants. His concluding rrmaiks were on the snhject of eilncHi ion. the value ot which he impressed upon theoongregation. Thf.atricai To-nig- ht 'The Hunchback" will be played, with Mr. and Miss Couldockln the roles of Master Walter and Julia. We hope to see the house crowded, for the drama is a most interesting one, and there is no question as to the excellent manner in which tliee fine roles will lie enacted. The cast embraces t be n times of Miss Adams, Messrs. Llnd say, Gra-ham, lmulmraud others. In the tarce of "Uuwl'd Out" Mr. Margetts nusiaius the part or Vearner, the hypocritical sconndrel who gets "bowl'd out." It is a very laughable piece. Miss Nunu slogs a favorite ballad between the play aud farce. Will Cojimk.nck. The classes In the Council House will cotamence Monday morning. Pro-fessor Caldcr Informed ns this afternoon Hint he has already received the names of sixty pu-pils. We hope the number will soon be suff-icient to All the building, and compel an addi-tion being made to It, knowing bow important their advantages are, and the great good thut result from tbeirorganlzatlon.

Last night Mr. Couldock ap-peared as Sbylock. and Miss Couldock as Portia, In "The Merchant of Venice," supported by a good cast of characters. The comedy waa put on the boards In good style, and was played throughout with much care and appreciation of its beauties by the ladles and gentlemen en-gaged. Mr. Couldock's Shylock was very differ-ent to any representation of the character we have had here before. "His; was the Jew that Sbakespear drew," not the emhodiinen of an ac-tor's fanciful creation. Miss Couldock's Portia was a highly artlstlo performance. Her deliv-ery of the lines commencing "The quality of mercy is not strained" was very fine; and the manner in which she broughtout the points of the character elicited much applause. Miss Colebrook as Jessica; Miss Alexanders Kerlssa, Mr. McKenzieas Auloulo, aud Mr. Lindsay as BiiHsanlo, were very good; Indeed all the char-acters were well enacted. "A Kiss in the Bark" waa the tarce, and created no little mirth in its performance. evening Sheridan ICnowles' beau-tiful play of "The Hunchback" will be perform-ed, with Mr. Couldock as Master Walter, Miss Couldock as Juli:i, and Miss Adams, who lias recovered from her late sickness, us llelen. The other characteis are in c(Ml hands. "Bowl'd Out ' is the farce; and one which suould make everybody laugh. We notice that the groat play of Henry IV Is underlined, and expect a great hist rloulc. trat lu Mr. Couldock's Impersonation o! Falstair, the fat knltfht. Wo have now a word of advice to ofler tosorne of the members of our regular company. In en-acting a character you are supposed by tho very nature ot the tlrama to be utterly oblivious of the fact that you are before an audience. It is therefore in the worst possible taste to evince a knowledge of their presence, by looking at or playing to them. The speaking to, singing to, or by other means letting tho audience see that you crave alter their applause, while represent-ing a character on the stage, is iu violation ol every rule of dramatio art, aud lu tho highest degree reprehensible. It should be shunned by every actor and actress, and frowned down by every Intelligent iterson in the audience. Mr. and Miss Couldock are living exemplars of cor-rectness in this respect; and our own company, with transient professionals who have played here, cntiW pattern alter tbem to much advan-tage. We do hope the practice be hence-forth shunned by every ouo who may tern i td to be guilty of it. Died. Yesterday evening, Bro. George Wash-ington Mousley died after a Lrlef Ulnes. Friends are invited to attend the funeral ohse-qnie- a. at tho residence of his family, in the loth Ward, at noon. Beaveii. By br.
