RRR eee SUNDAY AT SALT LAKE CITY. Where the lofty, sterile crags of the Wahsatch, garlanded with perpetual snow, look down on the wide alkali plain of the Great Salt Lake; in almost the centre of the vast interior wilderness of America; where a civilized people have lived only within a few years, and in an immense structure, covered by one of the broadest domed roofs existing, we yesterday afternoon heard a powerful organ peal forth, to an audience of thou- sands, the notes of the glorious hymn, sung by a large choir, “On the moun- tain top appearing, lo, the sacred herald stands.” Afte. this hymn we heard President Brigham Young deliver a remarkable address. The place, the newness and completeness of the edifice; of the city in which it stands; and more than all, the peculiar infiuences that have brought them to their existing condition; rendered the scene one of the marvels of our times. The Organ con- tains a choir organ and a heavy sub- bass, with wooden pipes 32 feet high. The bellows are worked by hand. There are three banks of keys. number of stops is yet incomplete. The case is, in general outline, designed after that in Music Hall, Boston, and painted in imitation of oak and walnut. The instrument, in all its parts, is the product of Mormon skill. The Taber- nacle containing it has seats, we are told, tor 13,000 persons, and 18 certainly a remarkabie edifice. ee DISTINGUISHED GUESTS. Yesterday, by invitation of Mr. A, B. Pullman the following gentlemen dined on board our train. President Brigham Young, Daniel H Wells and George A. Smith ; also Apos- tles John Taylor, Orson Pratt, Sen., Wil- fred Woodruff, George Q. Cannon and Brigham Young, Jr.; also Blshop J. C. Little. It gave our party great pleasure to meet them and be presented, and they appeared to enjoy their visit. pen —Brigham Young informed our party that he had now 16 wives and 49 living children only, and that he was sixty- nine years old, and had only attended school eleven days when a boy. SS —This morning we met, at Monument Point, thé California excursion train, containing 300 school teachers, bound for the Atlantic States to spend their summer vacation. de. 4 ones —To-day many of our party have seen Chinese laborers for the first time. nr Nn tn —The late Mr. Morse and the barber haue been restored to us. The OUR SABBATH SERVICE. One of the nobler and more delightful | incidents of our great ride, occurred last evening in the “ Palmyra,’ where an au- dience, limited only by the capacity of the car, attended evening service, com- mencing with the hymn, “Thus fer the Lord hath led me on,” sung in congre- gational style, to an accompaniment on the organ by Mrs. Kinsley. Rev. E. G. Porter, of Lexington, followed by read- ing the 139th Psalm,and Dr. R. C. Water- ston, of Boston, offered a remarkably impressive prayer, abounding in elo- quent and appropriate refiections on the wonders and mercies shown us during our eventful journey. Mr. Porter then gave a brief discourse of similar tenor, The services closed with the beautiful hymn “Nearer my God to Thee,” and the doxology, “Praise God from whom all blessings flow.” After the benediction, “Coronation,” and other good old psalm tunes, were sung. The true New England spirit that found expression at the summlt of the Rocky mountains, in the choral “ Amer- ica,” and the Hundredth psalm, was well manifested in these familiar strains, while the train was departing from the city of the plain. a —The large package of lithographic maps, with time tables of the Central Pacific R. R., kindly forwarded from Sacramento by John Corning, Asst. Gen’l Supt. of the road, expressly for our party, were most acceptable to our pas- sengers. Mr. Corning is on his way to meet us,and we hope to see him soon after breakfast, TELEGRAPHIC. [From U.S. Senator from Massachusetts] WASHINGTON, D. C., May 29, CHAS. WOLCOTT BROOKS: Cyrus W.
