Mrs Furcess took the patt asRigued to Mrs. Romney, and considering the short notice she received berjperforniance was very credliahla. On Monclay night there was a very thin house. The actors, however, performed their parts with great spirit, "Tho Toodles" was well played. Mr. Crowther and Mr. Thorne appeared to great advantage, and Mr. Margetts and Mrs. Bowring wore as funny as ever. The songs and dances elicited great applause, and "The Spectre "Bridegroom" tras well received. As great efforts were made to gratify he audiences though the house had been crowded. There will be a splendid bill On Thursday night Mr. D. McKeniie, the best actor in the Territory, will make his appearance. Everybody should e, ht. go and see him.

Shurtliff,, returned to, London, where 1 'expected o- - renmih one or two weeks, and visit the great City. But, I stopped there till Thursday, and got disgusted at the scenes that I witnessed, and took'the steamer that night at twelve o'clock from London Bridge for Boulogne, passed through Paris in the night, and arrived at Zurich and found Bro. Hebcr Young at tho railroad station waiting my arrival. I stopped thcrp with a brother till Christmas, when Bro. K. G. Maeser and myself, came to Berne where we held a meeting in the afternoon, and in the evening, the Saints all gathered together in the meeting-housbringing their picnic with them, and weihad a very good time, although I could not understand one word they said. On the 10th, of January, I started with another Elder for a tour iin the con ferences, and in fourteen days I made my first German sermou, and since that time I have never let'Jtn opportunity pass but have borne my testimony as faithfully as I could before, the world, according to tne knowledge I have ot the language, On the 3d of February, I received the news of my Father's death, which wus a ery haru stroke tor me, but 1 remembered his last words of counsel to me when I left home, they were for me to be faithful and perforin my mission like an Elder in Israel, to t my prayers to my uoil, ami lie would hear them can truly pay I ha done so, and with faith that I should receive comfort and I have been comforted till I wept for joy. This is the best part of my life. I take much pleusurcin visiting the Saints and in my studies. My president Bro. Grant has been very kind to me. I 'wish to do all in my power for the advancement of the Kingdom in this land, to be as fiilh- ful a member in this Church and King dom as my Father has been, and to keep all the covenants I hve made before high heaven, and perform every require ment I am called oa to perform with joy and gladness before my God. These are the faithful prayers of my henii. I am studying - every minute that my eyes will allow, both my own language and the German, and I pray I may be faithful and live as an Elder in Israel ought to live, and that when I return home and take my brat liven iy tho hand, Ieanlook thorn in the eye and feel that I have done my mission faithfully and truly. Praying for your health and tho i welfare of tjte, Kingdom of God, ; in lour jiromer lauu, Ciiaincy W. West, Am. Altenbcrg, No. 153, C. Berne Switzerland. . ' Kstdred. Elders Tho's S... Ricks, and Aaron D. Thatcher called to see us yesterday, having just returned from a missionary tour to the Enst. They both looked and felt extremely well, and rejoiced much to be back again among their frrends. They reported the feelings df the people where they had travelled to be of a mixed kind; some "being Mil of hatred against the 'Mormons," and others full of sympathy for them in the difficulties which certain parties are endeavoring to create between us and the Government. They had made many, friends on their trip, and found frequent opportunities of imparting information upon Utah and its affairs, which hid the effect of changing the sentiments of many persons considerably. A great number felt favorably disposed towards the "Mormons," and their principles, but had net the courage in' the face of public sentiment to acknowl- it openly; Elders Ricks yesterday for edge and Thatcher started their home In Logan; Cache County; where a Jsrge circle of relatives, friends and 'acquaintances will give them a hearty welcome home. arrived.

McGaw, Esq., of this cit from his nephew, b M. D, of experience and ter influence in Canada: Lynidoc"ii, Ont.f March 13, 1870. My dear Uncle: I am always so glad to hear from you that it seems I cannot wait to get a letter, and the papers you have so kindly furnished me have interested us all very much, though none is so pleased as myself. AVhcuever the ministers of the various churches here call upon us, the first thing they ask for is those "Mormon papers," and it is amusing to see how eagerly they devour the contents of lhera. Just now We are havfng cne of the worst snow storms we have had all winter and huge banks are, piled up around us so we have to shovel a ditch through it to get to the street. Quite an' excitement prevails regarding the 20 per cent, discount on American silver, ' .whiah comes in force on the 15th prox. It may 'be a help to you Yankees to .return to specie payments, isnd onie more enable you to handle the good, old fashioned dimes. Our Southern Railroad is at a stand and I am afraid we will iever have one unless Ontario does as Utah did with the branch frOtn "Ogden to Salt Lake.

Captain Palaver, of the ship Htlen Maria,., from New York for Antwerp, has 'arrived 'at Spithead in distress.

He believes the City of Boston must have been in the same . hurricane. The writer of a letter from Halifax says that the City of Boston was laden with heat when she left there 19 or 20 inches deeper than the insurance al lows. Ho says: She sailed from here on Friday and we had a fearful storm next day. If ehe encountered this there is no hope whatever of her turning up.
