Punky.

Mr.. Lefhngwell, the candidate Of the
Democracy OF the End district for Congress,
seems to be grent deal more mulish in his
superstition to Lecompton than he was ex-
pected to be. He was at Dubuque the other
day, when Jones and some Of the intimates
u the Administration took him aside and
sndsavored either to remove his objections
to Lecompton or to persuade HIM to let the
topic alone during the canvass. But LEI
hngwell was cleargrit. HE cursed Lecomp-
ton, English bill and all, aud in language
more emphatic than elegant, declared that
call hill could not force him to endorse
Lecompton." The interview was unsatis-
factory oil around. Jones was pale with
rage and disappointment, and the candidate
left for home, sour and sore.
NoTE.-The Lecompton question is not
"settled" in that district.

Wisconsin contemporaries are just now dis

The FARnINGToH BRiD0E REPAiREp.--W e
are glad to learn that the Pennington Bridge
has been repaired and is now in use. Our
readers will remember that it was broken
down last September by drove Of cattle
being improperly crowded on to it. Two
spans were broken and the bridge has not
been in use since then, much to the inconye
nienos Of the public. The bridge is nov
owned by II. NJ. Swazey & Son, who hav,
had il repaired in the most substantial man
ner. The irst crossing was made last Thurs
day. The Importance Of this bridge to GU

SCENE AT A GRAvE.-At the interment of
the body OF Mayor Wayne, at Savannah, last
week, the following pretty incident occurred,
and is related by the News:
In the procession Immediately following
the hearse, the colored people marched to
the number of about three hundred. After
entering the cemetery they ranged them
selves on one side Of the route chosen for
the procession and sung one Of the most
beautiful and appropriate hymns to one Of the
sweetest tunes we have ever had the pleasure
OF listening to. 1t was a grateful tribute to
their departed friend, offered in most grace
full and touching manner.

The Camp Scott correspondence Of the N
Y. Tribune tells the following story Of Nor
mon crime:
Another OF those black hearted, fendish
and atrocious deeds which cry aloud to Heav-
en- for vengeance upon the perpetrators, has,
from the publicity which has been given to
it among the Mormon people, reached u.s.
The fourth wife of man living in the vicin-
ity OF Salt Lake City, whose name for the
present | shall SUPPRESS young, amiable
and refined woman, beloved by all who knew
her, somewhat superior to the common mass,
from the influence Of early education-be-
came impatient and heart sickened at the alb
ject state Of misery so rapidly gnawing the
very cords of her soul, and determined il
possible to make an effort to reach the camp
of the army. Her husband got some hint OF
It, He Immediately mounted his horse, rode
to Brigham's Office, and asked of Brother
Brigham what he should do with her. Brig
ham told him to cut her throat, and thus save
her from eternal damnation. The brute went
home, and told the poor woman to prepare
to die. She, seeing the earnestness of his
manner, fell at his feet, begging, praying,
and mploring him for mercy but, while she
was thus kneelng before him, be took her by
the hair, and cut her throat from ear to ear
This example was afterwards held up to the
Mormon women in ward meetings as warn
ing to them.

Marriages OF Consanguinfty.

Marriages OF ConsanKuinfty.
adjourned recently at Washington City, a
very able report was submitted by DIR. S. NJ.
Bemis Of Kentucky, upon the influence Of
marriages OF ccnsanguinity upon offspring
DR.. b. says:
that over ten per cent. Of the deaf and
dumb, and over FIVE per cent. of the blind,
and nearly fifteen per cent. Of the idotic in
our State institutions for subjects Of these
effects, are the offspring Of kindred parents.
Aside from the facts which have gained
by corresponding with gentlemen who have
given close attention to these points, Gu
rious but perfectly legitimate process Of
computation confirms me in the opinion that
these estimates are very nearly correct
Five classes in the schedule prepared give
1877 marriages Of cousins, GAG OF which have
given issue to deaf and dumb, blind, idiotic,
or insane children. Admitting the same ra-
ito to prevail, the Ohio report, which con-
tains Isl marriages of cousins, followed by
deaf and dumb, blind, idioticy or insane OF
spring, would indicate the existence of 1872
other marriages of cousins in the same pop
ulation, not followed by such defects. The
counties which furnish these Isl marriages., ,
as above, are supposed to comprise in their
limits 1872 unreported marriages, making a
total of 4S3, contained in 1850 population
of ,52S,23s If the same ratio be supposed
to exist throughout the Union, there would
be found TO the twenty millions of white in
habitants, six thousand three hundred and
twenty one marriages Of cousins, giving
birth to 5000 deaf and dumb, blind, idiotic
and insane children, distributed as follows !;
Deaf and dumb, l,ll6.
Blind, Gas
ldiotic, 1854
Insane, 299
Then, If the figures of the last United
States census still applied to our population,
there would Now be found in the Union,
9,l36 deaf and dumb, OF whom ,ll6, or
l2,s per cent, are children Of cousins.
1878 blind, of whom 74s, or os-l per
cent, are children of cousins.
l4,257 idiotic, Of whom ,S44, or 80 per
cent, are children Of cousins.
l4,972 insane, of whom 800, or Ole per
cent, are children of cousins.
