ThelHigher Law

Many good men and women think 1t chris
tan duty to obey human Laws and! decisions
however unjust or opposed to the law OF love
the great law proclaimed fOrcibly by Jesus
aud all great reCormers who have ever benefit
ed man. To such ask, how would you have
felt it your duty to act had you been present in
the Kingdom of Judea at the time the supreme
law of the land required all male ehildren's
heads of the age of two years aud under to be
cut Off Would you have felt it your christian
duty to obey that higher and better law within
your own soul, placed there by the divine ar
chitect--or the human law Of the government
under which the inhabitants lived Or would
YOU have felt it your duty to move out OF the
country and lett the helpless children to be
murdered So much for obedience to the
laws.
Now for judicial decisions, How would
YOU have felt II your duty to proceed, had you
been present in the Supreme Court held by
PLATE in the Kingdom Of Judea at the time the
Court legally and regularly convicted, accold-
ing to law, Jesus OF Nazareth No lawyer OF
Court claims, but that the judgement and pro-
| ceeGings in that memorable case were regular
and of equal authority with any other Supreme
| Judicial Court held in that Kingdom.
| FlJudas acted on the side of the Government,
! and was unable to satisfy the higher law with

Before you follow in his footsteps, hope you
will consider well. l..

The Utah rebellion.

A Utah correspondent of the New York
Times gives very unlavorlble picture of the
state OF things in Mormondom, Mr. Buchanan's
marvellous paci6cation, and the efforts of the
so highly estimated Gov, Cumming to the con
trary notwithstanding. The writer above
named comes to the following important con
clusiOn
Il is now demonstrated beyond the POSSIBLE
ity of doubt OF contradiction that the MoTmons
are determined not 10 submit to Federal au.
thorty, or TO any law or government except
that Of the Church A u. 8. District Court
the only court Of record having criminal juris
Jietion which the organic act Of the Territory
has provided for, cannot hold a session unless
it ackuoW ledgea and submits to the superior
yaWer Of the Mormon priesthood, and acts only
ia obedience 10 their dictates.

The attempt of Mr.. Buchanan's Administra
ton t. crush out Mormonsm in Utah will but
add to the numbers and strength of that strange
people Mobs and prosecutions have built
them up from the most obscure beginnings, and
notwithstanding the presence of the army in
the Territory, the Latter Day Saints from the
Old World and the New are still hocking in to
the Promised Land. Recently large number
who wintered in New York stated for Salt Lake
City, and on the 18th inst, Liverpool ship
arrived at New York with 726 Monmons on
board. They came from England, Denmark,
Wales and other countries in Northern Europe.
Other companies are to follow.
What has become of the hosts of Mormons,
men aud women, THAI anti Mormon report said
would renounce allegiance to Brigham Young
and flee to the States so soon as the army ar
rived The truth is, Brigham is stronger with
his followers now than before the invasion o
Utah by Uncle Sam.

The IsLANDs.-We were favored to day with
a call from Mr.. Carpenter, of kelly's Island,
who is we'll known in connection with the grape
raising and wine making interests Of that locali-
ty From him we learn that the prospect OF
an excellent crop of grapes this year, on the
islands, is very promising. The growth of the
grape-raising and wine making business on the
island is remarkab G. A few years ago land
could be bought readily at Sl2 to S25 per acre,
which now is held at $3.50 to $500, owing to
the great success which has attended the cutl-
vation of native grapes and the production OF
wine. Indeed, the Islands of the Old World
famous for their wines, would seem to be in a
fair way To be eciipsei by the rising fame of
the 'inland" islands of the New, The Cataw-
ba and Isabella grape are both cultivated, the
former being the favorte for wine making.
Last year A acres were planted in vineyards,
and this year lO4 acres are being planted
This extraordinary growth of the business
is owing to the immense crops raised upon the
sland-the soil being remarkably well adapted
to the grape, and the climate of the most de.
sirabe character for the perfection of the fruit.
Another requisite to success which the wine
growers of Kelly's Island possess, is read
market for their productions The demand for
the grapes in their season is every year more
pressing, and as for the wine, it Is seized as
soon as fit for the market, and very liberal
prices are realized for it by the producers. A
majority of those engaging in the business are
Germans, from vine growing districts of the
Vaterand The demand for land is such that
all the other islands which have a soil suitable
for grape raising, must soon be occupied, and
Kelly's IsIaud will soon be very gar. en- Of
vineyards Indeed, we hear that on South Bass
Island, the point to which our excursion par
ties to Put in Bay steer, nine sales of land have
been made within six months, for vineyard
purposes, mostly to Germans.
From present indications, it would seem that
the islands in the western end of Lake Erie
are destined to be famous the world over, for
the excellence of their wines and the prOduc
tiveness and richness Of their Vineyards
