Az was expected the Select Committee reported back to

The majority have allowed debate upon II for a week, du.

as well agree upon rents for the forthcoming year in &C

ing. Neither Senator's Hopkins or Dickinson, BY whose
motions II has been twice postponed, raised any further
objections. SO the legally constituted Commissioners VIII
please send up the information without unnecessary
delay.
The debate Of last week was renewed. Messrss piskin-
son and Brooks occupied most OF the time In reciting
political "reminiscences ~ each understood them. Both
are well posted. The split between. the silvers and
wooleys occupied q large share In the discussion. II
even went az far back ~ the time when Thurlos Weed
determined TO defeat Gen. Taylor Tor the Presidency,

accused Of having prepared resolutions which were TO

at her residence, in Broadway. As yet NO clue to
the villain has been obtained, nd the affair rem aims
Q profound mystery.
The cotton market yesterday was without further
change Of moment in prices. The sales embraced
about 700 q 500 bsles The stock was again becom-
ing reduced, and that on sale, especially Of New Or.
leans and Texas mid iling, was light. Flour was
without change Of moment, while sales were mode

ern white wheat sold at 80 IS, and Michigan at 81
10 Corn was quiet, and sales light at 81 q 81 Oh.
for yellow Jersey and Northern. Southern and
Western was held above the views Of buyers. Pro-
visions were without marked change in prices.
Considerable sales of valuable real estate were
made yesterday at very full, and in some cases 1t
extravsgant prices, considering the late hue and
cry about the hard times ard scarcity Of money.
Ex-Governor Bigler, Of Pennsylvania, has been
elected President Of the Erie and Sunbury Railroad
in place OF Hon. James Cooper.
Within the past three weeks upwards OF five
thousand three hundred and fifty bales Of cotton,
valued at more than q quarter Of q million Of dol
Tors, have been destroyed by fire at the South.
The twelfth anti.slavery lecture Of the season was
delivered last evening in the Tabernacle, by the
Rev. Samuel j. May, OF Syracuse. The audience
was small. The burden Of the reverend gen.leman's

some definite course Of action, it became neces-
sary to gain further time. Both these objects
have been accomplished by the results Of the
recent conferences. Months will now be con-
sumed in ~fruitless discussion on points respect
ing which the parties can never hope to agree,
whilst. in the meantime, Russian intrigues will
be completing their work of disunion in the

the elements Of a counter coalition. Such is
our Interpretation of the Cars acceptance of

Sooner or later the conflict must come. We
must put them down or they must put us down.
This may seem ridiculous at present when a
company Of infantry could on q pinch set De-
seret to rights. But there are over two millions
of Mormons in the world, all Of whom have be-
come Mormons within the past ten or fifteen
years; any one can calculate at this rate ofpro-
gress how many there will be in the year 1875.
Who knows, too, that the contest may notcome
at a time when the slavery question is distract
ing the Union, and every mans hand turned
against his n~eighbor? And when it does come,
who will fight the best, think you, men who are
fighting for their church, their faith, their
homes, their rights, their social existence, or
men who are fighting for the maintenance Of
an abstract law, and the unfolding Of iHtoler-
ance? 'Tis q subject for grave and anxious

Dut tneIe 10 u strihing analogy petWeen
their religion and that Of Mahomet. Tie latter
cam at a period when men were distracted
by discussions on subordinate points of theolo-
gy and built his system the simple formula
'sThere is no God but God and Mahomet Is his
prophet" Every one understood this at o
glance. The Mormons, as will been by the SER
mon published elsewhere, aim at q similar sim.
plicity. Mahomet appealed to the passions Of
the people, turned their vicious propensities
to his own advantage by legalizing polygamy
and setting the example himself. So did Joe
Smith; and who shall say that the passions are
less powerful to-day than they were twelve
centuries ago, in the deserts Of America than
In those Of Arabiaf
There are many people, we know, who win
smile at historical parallels Of this character,
perhaps think them singular, but bestow on
them no lasting attention. This may be error.
The time is at hand when we shall be bound,
yes, be bound, In spite Of ourselves to dispose
Of the Mormons. How is TO be done? Shall
we re- establish the intolerant laws of other
ages, and abolish liberty Of conscience? The
spirit Of the present time is opposed to any
thing Of the kind. But shall we ~coalesce with
the Mormons, give them the right hand OF friend
ship, and sic down beside them as brothers
Impossible. II John Smith the Mormon has
elk wives, we cannot send John Brown the
Christian TO jail for having two. There must
either be no Mormons among MS; or We must
all be Normons. There IL no way out Of the
