The Whig of Saturday has an article upon the
increase of Mormonism, in the course OF which
reference is made to the able article in the last Edn
burgh Review. The Wing, after referring to the
facta, as to this increase and quoting the Review
to the cause. viz the discomfort Especially in
England) among the poor against the rich-the
pepinings OF labor against captal-suggests that
when the question of admitting Utah as State
arises there will be difficulty on the subject OF
polygamy. The Whig thinks it ought then to be
abolished. 49,. M s.7s.a =

vote for the Nebraska bill it has In the Northern
Democrats who did, The Administration had com
mitted itself to the bill and its pride made it ambi-
tious to carry it, +" failure would haye been death.
says the Wing, "to Executive infnence." There
FORE it continues, the fears of Executive ven.
geance, the hope of Executive reward, were en-
ployed and caused many reluctantly to vote
for the bill which they this day curse from the bot
tom OF their hearts. The Wings were free to fol-
low their own inclinations and views In one
case, therefore, says the Wing, we have deceit
fnl serve support Of the bill in the other, Open
frank opposition-thafs ALL In this connection, II
quotes the Albany Atlas-whch says that the Nor
thern Democrats gave larger vote against the bh
than The Northern Whgs: the former giving 46, the
latter Al against it. 4.s - &
