FROM UTAH.

The last mail which has reached this city
from Salt lake brings no news OF moment.
Nothing starti had sranspired recently.
The Valley Tan discusses poligamy at great
length. That paper says:
The leaders of the Mormons, and those
among the body of the sects, who are capa-
bic of thought on the subject, rely upon the
doctrine of Popular Sovereignty for immu
nifty and safety, in the practice and perpet-
uation of this disgusting and degrading vice.
Entren, he'd behind this popular doctrine,
Trey hope to resist alike the power of the
Federal Government to suppress the "pecu-
liar institution of Utah !; and the general
sense of the nation which would at once ban
ish it, with all who practice it from the land.
1t becomes, therefore, matter OF first mag
uitude and consequence 10 ascertain Wheth-
er the doctrine of popular or local sove
rcignty confers upon people OF ter
ritory, the right thus to set ut detauce the
enlightened and general sense of the great
body Of the people IN all sections of the
country, upon a question which must not
only r.tiect disgrace and dishonor upon the
entire nation abroad, but which in its conse-
quences must form the fertile source Of
trouble and discord at home. 1t is very ey-
ident that the Introduction and establish
ment of poligamy in the territory cannot be
sustained or defended on the same ground
that the introduction and establishment of
slavery is, admitting even for the sake of
argument that slavery is an evil: for slavery
exlstad in every state in the Union but one,
to the formation anG adoption of the consti
| tuition. 1t was at the time an existing and
very nearly universal institution throughou,
the country. The constitution was framed
recognizing its existence, and protecting the
| rights which grew up under It ; if wrong
therefore, slavery was q mutual and genera
wrong, which the States forming the Unior
agreed to license and uphold in each other
as long as each separate State entering int
the Federal Government saw fit to continue
it. Not so with poligamy. 1t did not theI
exist in any part Of the country, and tht
! trainers Of the constitution probably as lit
tie thought that it would ever become
custom of the country, as they did that can
nibalism would. They consequently mad
no provision for what did not exist, an,
what they could not anticipate would ers
exist in the country.
In speaking of matrimony 10 Salt Lax
City the Tan says:
We saw, week or two ago, walkin
down Main street from the direction of th
"President's Of6ce," u man accompanied b
four ladies. An air of slight perturbatio
in the party mingled with evident expire.
sions Of satisfaction and happiness, led ,
} to enquire who they werep Some one pie,
ent Informed US that they were party th'
had been up to President Young's Office
be married and that the four ladies had jn
) been united in indissoluble bonds to the mn
3 accompanying them. That, we suppos
, might be termed marriage in gross. "zs

The slavery question being about the on
