A SAD Picture OF THE MoRMoNs.--

who have been "seaIed" as The spiritual

propagate and uphold this monsirous de-
fusion. Nearly all The leaders have from
three women each up TO Brigham loung's

Hundreds of these deceived, abused
women secretly attempt TO beg the PrIvil-
eye Of coming away with the troops and
trains passing from time 10 time through
or coming from Salt Lake city, but this
cannot be allowed. Nearly all would get
away if they could. Such pictures of
distress and despair as are presented by
many of these deceived and abused women
can be found no where else than in Utah.
Hundreds of them never heard nor dream

burst upon their amazed vision on their
arrival at Salt Lake. And such mixture
of profanity and bla'Phemy, nonsense,
impudent assumption and bufOonery, as
is contained in their sermons and other

Romance and the Pulpit.

The Richmond Dispatch says we noticed
the fact a day or two since that Presbyte-
rian minister resigned his charge in Phil
adelpha. because the rules of his church
would not allow him 10 marry lady, in
Virginia, who had been divorced. The
reverend gentleman alluded to came TO
Virginia, where the lady lives, TO claim
the boon for which he had resigned his
occupation and salary, but the lady, on
hearing Of his res gnation, declined mar
rlage, giving as her reason the desire not
to separate church and pastor.
The Baltimore Patriot says that the
parties 10 the affair are Rev. Mr.. MILLER,
formerly of Frederick, Nd, and son OF
the late Professor MILLER, of Princeton,
and Mrs. Mcdowell, formerly the wife
of Hon. FRANCES Thomas, Of Frederick
