It is hard times lor the poor, especially in San Francisco, and euicidts are common. Mrs. Hewlings lectured twice in Santa Barbara on "Life among the Mormons," and disappointed her au Jiences by speakiug in their favor. She gave them a brief outline of the origin aLd growth of Mormonism, the small handful from which had sprung this wonderful people, whose principles and institutions had become first a and then an international question. m national, Facts such as she portrayed, coming from one who was not herself a Latter-daSaint, elicited much surprise, and many came to converts with her and make inquiries, which gave her a good opportunity to speak in behalf of a people many of whom she is intimately acquainted with, and for whom she entertains the highest esteem. Mrs. Hewliogs is on her way East, and only called enroute to eay good bye to the dear ones here. She has resided in this city for seven years. Associations. Saturday afternoon' Mt Pres. A.
