HASH-STEAD , LONDON , May 12 , 1881. To the Editor of Tim Il " : In your issue ot April If ill last I find n oport of nn interview with myself , while on route from Utali in charge of our mis sionary party , by your gentlemanly reporter - porter while crossing the Omaha bridge , and as there occurred some misunder standing of my remarks which , however - over , is easily accounted for from the in terruptions that occurred during our trip across the bridge. In the first place , I wish to Bay that it is from the working- classes that wo make our converts princi pally ; but where the great dilloronco arises in the report is in the fact that your reporter naked how our people re garded bigamy instead of polygamy. If the worda bigamy nnd bigamist were sub- atitutod in that section of your report where they occur , then it would bo n correct rendition of our views. Lot mo give the correct rendition of that part of the intorviow. " r. Jones was asked for his views on bigamy. Ho said that the Mormons and Mormon religion were just ns much opposed to bigamy as any other people or church , but they do not look upon a man ai a bigamist because ho has two or moro wives. It ia deceit , " said Mr. Jones , "that makes bigamy. If a man has two or moro wives , and doea not communicate the fact to his first wife , then ho becomes n bigamist , and is subject - joct to punishment under our laws ; but if a man has two or a dozen wivta , and the fact is well known to hia first , nnd , in Fact , all his wives , then ho is not n bigamist. " Your paper has boon partic ularly liberal heretofore in its views ro- yarding our principles , and lias boon re garded aa a fair nnd intelligent journal by our people ; therefore , wishing you to maintain that character before thorn and the general public , I will continue to give further explanations of our views on the all absorbing topic " the marriage question of Utah. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints , have been taught by direct revelation from the Almighty , nnd com manded to practice plural marriage , which they incorporated aa a tonotof their Faith and practice nt the time of its recep tion , and it BO continued nnd romaina to : ho present timo.Vo , as n people , hold ; ho criino of bigamy to bo ono of the moat damning crimes ; in the commission there of a man already married , with deceit , entraps - traps a female into a contract of marriage unknown to the legal wife , which is the ruin ofthopoacoof both females concerned nnd the wreck of nil domestic happi ness and that confidence which makes the family circle with its endearing tics the most bloascd and happy condition of man , while our plural system on the other hand ia conducted upon n well-known condition of the facts by all parties concerned , the first wife consenting to the espousal of the second , nnd all parties acknowledg ing the obligation as equally binding. As for referring you to the bible for the consistency and proofs of our views on this matter , I will wave such referen ces. But the question may bo aakod , does this plural condition result in the happi ness of the women entering into such contracts ? ! answer yes. AVhilo.itrequires the exorcise of fjroat Bolf-sacriflco on the part of the ladies concerned , especial ly on the part of the first wife , I have the certain knowledge , Mr. Editor , in my residence- the Mormon community for twenty-eight years past , that there are certain ties that grow in the hearts of the fomaln praoticors of thii law , that bind thorn together in bands greater than the love of Bistprs. I have boon nt the bedside - side of their sick and dying children , nnd soon the solicitude or both wives extend ed to the dying child in a manner that it would bo hard to toll which was really the mother of the child. Now as to the husbands of such wives being the lust-fa villains they are sometimes reported to bo through the press : It is all nonsense to suppose that the endearing ties of the family circle could exist or bo maintained by other means than that of an honorable course on the part of the husbaad , nnd wliilo , Mr. Editor , within your circle o acquaiutoncoa , you may know of mono ganio marriages which have proved disna trous and miserable failures , I will owi that all men who enter thia plural re lation are not endowed with the roquislt > ewer of Belf-control to bo successful Wo claim that the Qosnol wo practice with its teachings is the ponacca fo nany of the evils that ailllct humanity to day , and which are alarming the minds o ; hose who think deeply upon the com nunistic and lufidolio ideas that are grow ing in the land , with such rapidity. Th social evil that exists ia gradually bu Buroly increasing beyond the limit"if' i < man legislation to control , A" tor wo claim in our principle t > > i ' marriage is couched the correction ui tiiul great ovil. Respectfully , ALUEUT JONEP. The Hallway at Berlin. For the last ton years Berlin has boon in pcscBsion of a ciacular railway similar in character to that which runs round Paris , and nerving to connect the princi pal stations on the main linoa which run into Berlin as well M to facilitate subur ban trafllo. This network of railway has recently boon completed by the opening of a transversal line from west to east , which runs through the dcart of the city and places it in direct communication with all the main lines. The Stadtbahm ( city railway , ) ns it is called , starU from Ohailottonburg to the woat , where it formes a junction with the circular rail way , and with the Hamburg , Hanover , and Cologne lines , and has stations at the Zoological Gardens and the Friodrioh- fltrassu , cloeo to the Unter don Linden avenue and the stock exchange. It then traverses the populous district of Berlin and forms a junction to the ex- troino cast of Berlin with the circular rail tray and the Brotlau and Konigaborg lints The Stadtbahm , which is about OJ miles long is carried nearly all the way upon arches , and there are four line of rail , two being reserved for the local traflio and two for trains from thu main linos. The construction of this railway baa iiocofsitatod the demolition of ninny Umlubncus dwellings , and for some distance - tanco the line is parallel with the ancient j forlibcatious of the city. At another I point a M'adujt has boon built in the bed 'Iof the Spree , thus avoiding the ex-pro- iriation of many warehouses , which Imvo > ccn loft with moans of access to the river. As Berlin pretty much on the level , the gradonls are not very stoop , nnd only 43 > er cent of the line is on the curve. ? here nro nitio stations in all , four of which ( Qharlottonburg , FriodrichstrnnsD , Alexander-Pinto , nnd Schleaischor-Bslin- 0 ! ) nto for the main line aa well an the ocal trains , wliilo the five others ( Zoo- Gardens Bellevue Lohrtcr-Bahn- ogical , , - - ioir , Stock-exchange , nnd Jannowitz- ruclio ) nro for local t radio only , the nnin line trains not stopping nt them , 'ho stations nro largo nnd wall nrrangnd , nd the number of pasaongors on week ays _ has averaged so far about 22,000 , hilo on Sundays there ns many as 90- , 00. Upon the local line there are trains very ton minutes between 5 n. n. nnd midnight , with 51 oxtia rnlns on Sunday , their uniform speed iK twenty-seven miles an hour. They o not stop nt all stations , from Chariot- onburg _ on the west to Breslau Konigs- erg slotion on the east , nnd from that oint eomo of them run into the suburbs f Berlin , nnd others over the circular nil way. Thoao trains hnro only second nd third-clnrs carriages , the latter being o comfprfablo that they are always full. ho main line trains do not runof course , t fixed intervals , but f. wins for Ham- urg , Cologne , Vrankfo , .u i the west tart from the eastern ntntion , while lioso for the north nnd east nil start from ho western stalion , BO that all stations ass through the city , stopping at the our principal stations. No goods trains ro running nt present upon the Stadt- iahmhut , n largo covered market is about ) about to bo built near the Alexander- 'latz station , and then this railway will o of immense vnluo for the provisioning f Berlin. The totnl cost of the line was :2GOO,000 : , or 100,000 per mile.

The ring ia bought by the groom , and may bo the choice of his fancy , albeit a > lain band ia the traditional symbol , 'ho marking is n matter of taste , and may include the initala or Christian name , nd the data in full.

The groom is expected to send a carriage for the officiating clergyman , and make positive arrangement about the ceremony , which , in thcso liberal days , must bo modified , amended , or recon structed to suit the religious taste of the couplp. Application may bo mada n writing , or through the best man , but if the prospective husband applies in per son the gentleman of the cloth will "help a lame dog over the style , " as Dundreary would say. Marriage fees vary according to the parse and inclination of the groom but it is an established canon of matro inonial usage that when the Bishop dona his lawn aloovos and foreshortened Mother or Ilubbard for tbo national benediction 8100 ia aa amnll a chock as ho can bo ex pected to accept , and proportionally smaller amounts mint bo given to the aa sisting clergymen.

Ever since , when a oy , I road IJorndon's description or the .mozon , I have longed to ooo the Missis- ppi , nnd although it has taken the bet- or part of n lifetime to realize the ambi- ion , the attainment of it is ; iono the ess gratifying , and I can say ns Seward aid , when ho saw Kansas , "a long lorishcd desire of my heart is at last atiaficd. " HTBAMHOATINd ON THE MISSISSIPPI. may bo in its decadence , but there nro nilllons of wealth still profitably invost- d , and river men are hopeful of a return f the flush times of old. Un the upper river , from Ht. Louis to t. Paul , there nro two regular lines of inaHongor packets , the Diamond Joe and iVhito Collar line , the latter being the accessor of the old Kookuk Line Packet ompany. _ Thcso boats are comfortable , ho sidowhoolor of the Collar line cspo- ially , being commodious nnd handsome. L'hoy all sot good tablna , make reasonable line , nnd in the excursion season are argoly patronized by tourists. On the lower river , from St. Louia to 'Tow ' Orleans , there is ono through line if boats , largo , elegant in their appoint ments , and very popular vith the travel- ' : ig public ; this ia the Anchor lino. Their oats are almost vrithout an exception amcd for the towns en the nyor. Thus hov have the City of St. Louis , Grand ' 'ower , Arkansas City , City of Piovi- ienco. City of Vicksburg , City of Baton tougo , nnd City of Now Orleana. An- ithor boat ia being built for this line , to 10 called the City ot Bayou Sern. The ompany wanted to name a boat City of Natchez , but Capt. Leathers , who owna ho Natchez , the successor of the bent of iat name that made the famous race ith the R. E. Lee , 1873 , protested that o had n copyright on that name and they csisted. In addition to the boats on this line , lero are n number of independent bocts lying between St. Louis nnd Now Or- cans. From Memphis down there are ithor packets and from Greenville and "icksburg there nro still others , nil largo no , side wheel boats with good passen- or nccomodations. The finest boat on the river is the "J. I. AVhito" in the Groonvilio trade. She s larger than the boats of any other line , ind I believe larger than any over built or the river , but of this I am not posi vo. She has beaten the time of the ice nnd can run arc nnd anything that ver came to Now Orleans. Speaking of the Lee reminds mo of THAT FAMOUS KACE lie made with the Natchez. The bet na for $20,000 , the race from Now Or- cans to St. Louis. Neither boat took 'reight or passengers , and the Leo took ft' her cabin doors und cut away the out- r guards of her boiler deck , to offer ns ttlo resistance as possible to the vrind. 'ho Lee got of ! by a few minutes nnd was , n hour ahead at Natchez. At Lake rovidonco the " 1'argoud" brought her a oad of pine knots nnd the Natchez never taw her afterwards until the race was done , the Lee beating her into St. Louis lomo six hours , if I lomombor correctly , ho time being about thrco days. Af- : orwurds the Leo was taken to Louis- illo and pulled to pieces. The now R. 3. Lee was built about a year ago. The Id Natchez has been dismantled and is used ns a warf boat at Yicksburg , the low Natchez is in the Now Orleans anc reonvillo trade. STEAMBOATS AKI !

The only way for them to got there is to skirt around the uulf and circumnavigate the state of Florida , a very risky voyage for a light draught , loosely built river steam er. Vicksburg ia in trouble with her har bor. The Miuissippt haa cut across th Ox Bow bond and ahortenod its channo about ton miles , leaving the city on n dead eddv nt high water , and a dry sane bank at low water. At present bent drawing eight feet can como up to th wharfboat , but at low water they lain t o miles below town where the oh Natchez is doing duty as a wharfboat. It haa boon proposed to cut a cana five iniloa long and TOllK T1IE YAZOO. into the old Mississippi channel in fron of Vicksburg , thus shortening the cours of that river fifteen or twenty miles , am giving it sufficient fall to scour out n dee ; and permanent harbor for the city , I understand that Capt. Eads object to this on thn theory that this incroasec fall in the Yazoo will pull all the wate out of that river and necessitate irriga tion. Kids seems to bo afraid that some body ia going to "corner" the water o the Mississippi and create n water panic If ho would only only try hia water eeon omy on the upper river , and let aomi practical man liko'Cowdon squander som of the water of the lower river , probabl the sugar planters would rise up and cal them boih blessed , JIT LAKE I'HOVIIIINCE where Grant cut the levee to open a water way round Vioksburg , the embank incut haa been restored better than over put every citizen of the village can giv its war history and toll how many inon wore employed to dig the ditch , how they worked and how long they worked An old fig tree that waa spared stil stands on the bank , and I gathered twig full of young fruit as a souvenir Ono of the soldiers that died was buriec near Jho lake under an old ash troo.
