I dislike to speak about it--but it was in Utah that I made the great speech of my life.  I wish you could have heard it.  I have a fine education.  You may have noticed it.  I speak six different languages--London--Chatham--and Dover----Margate--Brighton--and Hastings.  My parents sold a cow--and sent me to college when I was quite young.  During the vacation I used to teach a school of whales--and there's where I learned to spout.--I don't expect applause for a little thing like that.  I wish you could have heard that speech--however.  If Cicero--he's dead now--he has gone from us--but if old Ciss* could have heard that effort it would have given him the rinderpest.  I'll tell you how it was.  There are stationed in Utah two regiments of U.S. troops--the 21st from California--and the 37th from Nevada.  The 20-onesters asked me to present a stand of colors to the 37-sters--and I did it in a speech so abounding in eloquence of a bold and brilliant character--and also some sweet talk--real pretty shopkeeping talk--that I worked the enthusiasm of those soldiers up to such a pitch--that they came very near shooting me on the spot. *(Here again no description can adequately inform the reader of the drollery which characterized the lecturer.  His reference to Cicero was made in the most lugubrious manner, as if he really deplored his death and valued him as a schoolfellow loved and lost.) Brigham Young's Harem.--These are the houses of Brigham Young.  The first on the right is the Lion House--so called because a crouching stone lion adorns the central front window.  The adjoining small building is Brigham Young's office--and where he receives his visitors.--The large house in the centre of the picture--which displays a huge bee-hive--is called the Bee House--the bee-hive is supposed to be symbolical of the industry of the Mormons.--Mrs. Brigham Young the first--now quite an old lady--lives here with her children.  None of the other wives of the prophet live here.  In the rear are the schoolhouses where Brigham Young's children are educated. Brigham Young has two hundred wives.  Just think of that!  Oblige me by thinking of that.  That is--he has eighty actual wives, and he is spiritually married to one hundred and twenty more.  These spiritual marriages--as the Mormons call them--are contracted with aged widows--who think it a great honor to be sealed--the Mormons call it being sealed--to the Prophet. So we may say he has two hundred wives.  He loves not wisely--but two hundred well.  He is dreadfully married.  He's the most married man I ever saw in my life. I saw his mother-in-law while I was there.  I can't exactly tell you how many there is of her--but it's a good deal.  It strikes me that one mother-in-law is about enough to have in a family--unless you're very fond of excitement.
