On the stands vre noticed "President B. Young and President D. H. Wells, of the First Presidency; "Apostles Orson Hyde, Orson Pratt, John Taylor.Wilford Woodruff, Geo. A. Smith, E. C. C.RIoh,Lorenxo Snow, Erastus Snow, Franklin D. Richards, George Q. Cannon and Joseph F. Smith; John Ssalth, Patriarch; John Young, E. D. Woolley and Samuel W. Richards, thePreslden-c- y of the High Priests Quorum; George B. Wallace and Joseph W. Young, of the Presidency of this Stake of Zion; P. Bock wood, Joseph Young, AlbertVan Cott, of the Jacob Gates and John First Presidency ofV the Seventies; Ed- ward Hunter, L. Hardy and Jesse C. Little, the Presidency of the Btihop-ric- ; Bishops, presiding Elders and leading men from settlements the most remote and those at .nearer points of distance, Idaho, Utah and: . Arizona being represented." One notable point In connection with this Conference is, that It Ja the first Gen- eral Conference of the Church held in Utah at which there has been a full Quorum of the Twelve Apostles present. The nature of the duties and labors of the Twelve c&utcs one or more of their number to be nearly always absent In some parts of the earth, aiding to build up the Kingdom of God; but this October, through the recent arrival of Elder Franklin D. Richards, all anj in the are assembled at ConTerritory. and all ference. The comma nion and counseling of President Yonng, President Wells and the full Quorum of the Twelve, with their united wisdom.wide experience, and the spirit and inspiration which accompany them, will, beyond doubt, give birth to much most valuable instruction and counsel to the people, and the adoption of such meas ures, under the dictation of the Spirit of as will, be or incaiculablo benefit uod, to tho interests of the community. We record this meeting together p fall the Twelve at Conference, as most note..... ference of. the y . - vi,.., T-Bens- . j . i - . , . worthy.; j, The meeting was called to order by President B. Young, and the Tabernacle Choir sang the opening hymn:i :MThe breaks, &c" Elder George A. morning Smith offered up prayer: and the 20th Ward Choir, which occupied a position ou the left of the stand, sang the hymn, ,- "Father, how wide t thy glory shines, Ac," Elder Orson Hyde first addressed the Conference, reasoning at some length on the principles of temporal and spiritual solvation. As many followed the Savior for the loaves and fishes, so, many seek the home of the Saints for mere sordid and pecuniary motives, caring for nothing higher than the ac cumulation of this world's goods. But. the Saints have to work out their salvation, to build up the Kingdom of God, aud further the cause of human redemption. The feeling which many' have, that now Is a season of scarcity of bread, and from which they are led to shut up their boweU of compassion. Is not one that should be indulged in. We should succor the needy and do good to ail. The approach of the railroad toward completion, and the spirit which animates those engaged In its construction, are evidences of me manner in which ' - . Uod Is working for tho of His holy purposes. accomplishment When that road is completed it will be found to be a mighty instrument ih the hands of the Lord for farthering His work. The speaker exhorted the Saints to labor diligently to build up the Kingdom of God; and learn to become saviors before tbe Lord.' The Brigham City choir, under the leadership of U. L. Fishburne, which occupied a position to the right of the staud, sang the anthem, "I will lift- up mine eyes!',' Elder Or on Pratt then addressed the congregation. He noticed the reasons why we came here not because we wanted to but because wo were compelled to, and could not help ourselves. The spirit of opposition, which drove the SainU beyond the Rocky' Moun- tains and compelled them to seek a shelter iu the.tben almost unknown wilds of this mountainous country1, has operated against tho Church and its leaders, from the time the Prophet Jo- t. seph obtained the plates up to the The same spirit has evermanU fested its j opposition to the people of Uod, whenever He has had a priesthood and power upon the eJth and communicated His revelations to His people. The Saints have been called upon to Rather out from the nations of the earth, that they may be separated from every thing unrighteous and corrupt. We have toiled and la!ored here to make ourselves homes. We were compelled to labor by the force of clrcum stances and the exigencies of our situa- tion. No "other people have tolled as we have done, for no other people have been placed in such untoward circumstance? Who has done all that is to be seen In this Territory, in changing it from a- wilderness to a beautiful, well cultivated i and productive country? The old settlers have done it. They pioneered this region and gave to gova country which would have ernment been unsettled for another cenfor they perhaps made a base of supplies tury, for the exploring parties, prospectors raining camps, which have been fad tue birth of several aunoundlng States and TerrltorUs.

Talking through an evening at the top of the voice, is painful and fatiguing, and yet thevery noise made by the whole company is so great, that no one can be heard who epeaks low or ln a natural tone. Many throats are made sore and many beads are made to ache by this unnecessary noise, and persons subject to bronchitis are obliged to avoid It entirely. - . , Ia-al- l the voices European eociety, are kept lower than usual ln large parties, and a general hum prevails, in which is easily heard by those he addresses.' The loudness American's is very marked, and pro-of duces disgust and indignation when It breaks the stillness of galleries and other public places,picture where nothing but whispers are allowed. When aloua voiced heard from an American traveler; every one is startled, and looks about to see whence it comes, and the com menta on thH breach of "good manners are severe; " I once introduced some refined and i cultivated Americans very to a gentleman ln London, who could have done much for their amusement and procured their admission to private galleries of painting andmany but after sculpture; one experienco oj their vociferating, in a public exhibition, he would not again expose himself to the pain and the shame they then caused him. Ho wrote to mo to excuse himself for not having done more for my friends, by saying that their loud talking made them not in refined society, and not presentable bearable in public places. He. added that he had made a dinner party for them, ef Americans only, but he was afraid the police, would come in to see what the row was.

Jonn Taylor spoke of tne cna-iiuer racter of our Conferences.; and the ob jects for which we assembled .together in such a capacity. The subjects dwelt upon at such times are not confined to that which is usually called re ligious by , the sectarian world. ' but comprise everything that relates to xxxvb welfare. hsDnlness. prosperity and existence all of which, is embraced in our religion. The subject of trading. spoken of in the forenoon, would bear considerable investigation, it naa been a principle acted upon by all nations to adopt measures calculated to further the eon eral coou. our position issucn a one as many, nations have been placed in at some period or tneir existence. Nations make treaties of commerce, ap consuls and. take other steps point to protect their trade and com mercial - relations; Special advanare conferred tages upon various indus tries; protection is extended to Home manufactures and prombltlon la exer cised to a greater or less extent against the imported goods. ito one questions or no one to do thinks bring- thus; right n? charges against any people or na tion who try to further their ' own interests in such a manner. We are not a nation, but as a part 'of this Kepublic and in our Territorial condition we' hold political relations with the general government. We are somewhat different from other commu nities. Our religion has brought us together; our faith unites us; yet we have rights which we cannot neglect and be justified. Numerous and strong reasons were adduced by- Elder Tay lor why we should not- trade witn those who have tried and continue to try to injure us; and why wo should support ourselves, do our own trading, our own merchandising, and build up the Territory that Is our home. This Is done by political organizations and by religious societies all through' Christen dom, and we have an equal right with others to protect ourselves and our own " interests. ; Elder Taylor was speaking when bur ; report closed, r .. - nnrp. at? u J - , - -- CONFERENCE. - ' we; . pltasa and la Europe, and, as wcll-br- td peopls lonrr as- we do not there never toler&le even la the meet it, any Jaw nor lnfrice- uoon the social circles, it Is conxldered a maris of of others.
