1t is notorious to all here that large numbers Of
the Mormon women are IN n state of great want
and destitution, and that their husbands do not

Nearly every Mormon woman about our camp has

Brigham Young and his cOnfederates know full
well that his system cannot continue 10 thrive or 10

like free or general intercourse between his peo-
pie and the Amy would tend directly and power
fully toward the overthrow Of the most oblec-

have been kept as far away from the masses OF the
Mormon population ms practicable, and the inter
course between the army and the population OF the
Territory has been Of the most limited character.
In no other portion of the Union would il BE- con-
sidered ground of grievance OF complaint TO have
troops stationed in or near town or city.
Gen. Burr. formerly suryeyor-General Of this
Territory, has submitted u motion to the District
Court, which VIII come up al the present term to
have Hosea Stout, Adjutant- General Ferguson, and
g. {. Little prominent Mormon lawyers, dis
missed from the Bar. The grounds of the motion
are that, some two years ago, the individuals
named sought TO have Gen. Burr discharged on
false charges preferred against him by ihem-they
knowing at the time that such charge. were false
and for furthermore, attempting ~ effect their
purpose by intimidating the Court with mob vio-
lence.
