AMI easy modcof getting rid Of all theircan-
didates, by killing them with faint praise.
The Enquirer is calling upon Mcssrs. Stin-
SON and Gavitt to define their positions
This should have been done ifthere wereany
doubts upon tho subject before the gentle
men were nominated. They did not conceal
theirviews, nor ever hcsitatcd to avow them.
But the truth is, the convention knew their
position; and they were nominated because
a majority of the members tacitly agreed
with them in sentiment; and because no
candidates with different views could be
elected. The Lccomptonite Office holders
pretend 10 'have been Sold;' while in fact
they knew the bias of their candidates a
well before the convention as they do now;
they would gladly have selected other men,
but they were without strength To sustain
any ono, and had no power TO prescribe con-
ditions. The resolutions, so Objectionable to
some independent Democnts, were drawn
up by an anti-Lecompton committee, who,
for a purpose, gave them II stronger Infusion
OF BHchananisn than was designed. The
candidates sustain the same construction OF
the resolutions, that their authors placed
upon them when they were drafted. Ac-
cordng To the doctrines Of the faithful eau
crsite, the selections of a convention arc In
fdlibly right; to oppose them. is treason tC

brigham Youngss wives, as seen by a
iSeufTle.


The Utah correspondent OF the New FORK Tim@
furnishes the following description Of the spiritual
wives Of Brigham Young;
"Bripham is a man of some taste, and his sPiritu-
ais arc generally fine looking women, some OF tnen
indeed, quite pretty, aud all Of them, 50 far as l
could Judge, intelligent. l suppose saw IN the
shanty quarters some thirty women, but whether
thev we're all of them wives Of the Prophet, or whether
these constituted his entire household, Of course
am not informed The general impression here
seems to be that he has nearly or quite MY wives
Ne only claims to have forty children living, having
ad AZ altogether. This, doubtless, is the hightst
6gure he can claim, as the "SaInts consider large
number of children a subject Of pride and boast
These wives are all their oWH servants, ana the
u,Ir ses of their own children To see them sitting
under the overbangiDg Of the shanties just a.
du.Ec with their numerous children hanging around
them all crying, chstterng or teasing At once, was
certainly suggestive of founding hospital
~ was curious to know whether these women
were happy in the strange life they led and glance
at their faces impressed me with The conviction that
theirs was the happiness Of stold Gstlessness, an
existence in which all the higher and hOlier sent>
ents of refinement and affection had been sacrificed
unon the altar Of fanatieism. They seemed 70 be
virtuous-ailling, perhaps. and igned-butneVer-
theess unhappy victims Of self Inflicted torures, oy
which they hoped to merit saintlyreward. Toa feW
of them. perhaps these remarks would not appiy.
some Of the younger females appeared thoughtless
or reckless but the elder, who were eduoated In
circles where woman was queen rather than yassal
slaye wore their chains evidently with inward mur-
muring."
