lty. Here canals will occupy the place of streets, and light, fairy-like pleasure boats will Isupercede horses. Here, instead of Wall street, we have Rialto; here will be seen and heard sonoras and sonortes in their gandoas, singing love songs ill the starlight; and here Will be the most pleasing combination of health, convenience and beauty in any city upon which the son ever shone.--N Mouuguense.

 Brigham Young on Whining Wo-
 men.
 Arrangement of Disappointed Wiyes---- Emancipation Of the Haya.n.
 It is frequently happening that women say they are unhappy. Men will say, My wife, though most excellent woman has not seen a happy day since 1 took my SC cond wifc;' "no not happy day for year' says one; and another has seen not happy day for five years. It is said that women are tied down and abused: that they are misused and have not the liberty they ought to have that many of them are wading through perfect flood of tears, because of the conduct of some men, together with their own folly.
 wish my own women to understand that what am going to say is for them as well as others, and want those who are here to tell their sisters, yes, all the women of this com munity, and then write it back to the States, and do as you please with it. l am going to give you from this to the 9th day of October next for reflection, that you may determine whether you wish to stay with your husbands or not, and then am going to set every woman at liberty and say to them, " Now. % your way my women with the rest" 20 your way. And my wives have got to do one oftWo things; either round mp th4.r shoulders to endure the atfiictlons of this world and live for their reli- g;on, or they may leave for will not have them about me. l will go into heaven alone rather than have scratching and fighting around me. l will set all at liberty. "What, first wife, too!' Yes, l will liberate you all
 know what my women will say; they will say: Iou can have as many women as you please, Brigham" But I want to go some where and do something to get rrd of the whi- ners; do not want them to receive a part of the truth and spurn the rest out of doors.
 l wish my momen, and brother kimballs, and brother Grants to leave, and every woman in this territory, else say in their hearts that they will embrace the Gospel-the whole ofI it. Tell the Genties that 1 will free every woman in this territory at our next conference.
 " Hdl, tHc AiSt N4lC, too 1eo, iueFc Slal not one be held in bondage; all shall be set free. And then let the father be the head of the family, the master of his own households; and let them treat them as an angel would treat them; and let the wives and children say Amen to what he says, and be subject to h.s dictates, instead of their dctatins the man Instead of their trying to govern him.
 No doubt some are thiuking, "I wish bro- rI,or, of the chillreu.'' I will tell you what my feelings are; l will let my wives take my chii- dren, and l have property enough to support them, and can educate them, aud then give them good fortune, and can take fresh start.
 do not desire to keep particle of my pro- perty, except enough to protect me from state of nulity. And I would say, wives, you are welcome to my children, only do not teach them miquity, for if you do l will send an el- der, or come myself to teach them the gospel You teach them life and salvation, or will send elders to instruct them.
 Let every man thus treat his wives, keep ing ralment euough to q )the his body, au sav to your wives, take all that 1 have aud be set aU liberty; but if you stay with me you shall comply with the law of GoI, aid that, too, without any murmurin5 and whM,a5- You must fulfill the the law of God in every respect, and round up your shoulders to walk uP to the inark without any gruAting.
 Now recollect, that two weeks from to.mor- row am going to set you at liberty. But the first wife will say, "It is hard, for I have lived with my husband twenty years, or thirty, and have raised q family of children for him, and It Is great trial to me for him to have more women;" then l say that 1t is time that you gave hln up to other women who will bear children. If my wife had borne me all the children that she ever would bear, the celes- taL law would teach me to take young women that would have children.
 Do you understand this? I have told you many times that there are multitudes of pure aud holy spirits waiting 10 take the taberD.- lees. Now what is our dnty? To prepare ta- bernacles for them; to take course that will not tend to drive those spirits into the families ot the wicked where they will be trained in wickedness, debauchery, and every species of crime. ltis the duty of every righteous man and every woman to procure taberuacies for all the. spirits they can. Hence, if my women leave will % and search up others who will abide by the celestial law, and let all that 1 now have go where they please, though will send the gospel to them.
 This is the reason why the doctrine of plur- ality of wives was revealed. that the noble spirits which are waiting for tabernac!es might be brought forth.
 If the men of the world were anywhere near right, there might not be the necessi- ty which there now is. But they are wholly given up to idolatry, and to all manner of wickedness.
 Do l think that my children will be damned? No, l do not, for am going to fight the devil until l save them all; I have got my sword ready, and it is a two edged one. I have not fear about that, for l would almost be asham- ed of my body if it would beget child that would not abide the law of God, though I may have some unruly children.
 am going to ask you good many things, and to begin with will ask what is your prayer? Do you not ask for the righ eous to de crease, while the unriyhtcous shall decrease. and dwndlc awayi Yes that is the prayer of every person that prays aS all. The M.1ho- dsts pray for it, the Baptists pray for j;, and the Church nf England and all the Reform CTS, the Shaking QuaSers 10. excepted And if the women belonging u this church will turn Shaking Quakers, l think their sorrows will soon be at an end
 Sisters, l am not joking do not throw out my proposition to banter your feelings. to see whether you will leave your husbands, all or any of you. But do know that there is no cessation to the everlasting winnings of many of the women of this territory; l am satisfied | that this is the case. And if the women will | turn from the commandments of God, and con- | tinue to dspise the orders of heaven, I will pray that the curse of the Almighty be close to their heels, and that 1t may follow them all the day long. And those that enter into it, and are faithful will promise them that they | shall be queens in heaven, and rulers to all eternity
 "But," says one, "I want to have my pari- disc now" And says another, "I lid think l should be in paradise if 1 WAS sealed to Broth CT Brigham, and 1 thought 1 should be happy when l became his wife, or Dr. Heber's. I loved you so much that thought was going
