We are sorry to see the marked disre-
spect lately exhibited by the Emperor Of
Utah to his royal brother at Washington.
His Majesty, Brigham the First, is said
to have lately denounced "the Gcntiles"
in his dominions in unmeasured terms,
and declared that Sin nine months
Utah would be as free of Gentiles as the
Presidents (Abraham FirsD message is
of reference to Utah."
1t was certainly all objectionable dis
courtesy to omit in that document all al
fusion to Utah. The two p overs have
been hitherto on the most friendly
terms. The domestic institutions of
Utah have been regarded in tolerant,
not to say admiring spirit, by the same
people who have visited the domestic
Institutions of the South with fire and
sword. Even at a time when Utah, a
mere territory, openly unfurled the fias
of rebellion, the United States sent peace
commissioners with its army--an act Of
grace which it never extended to the
wicked rebellion in the Southern States.
Bishop Talbot who recently travelled
through Utah, states, in his report, that
he was not permitted to preach there,
and that no house would be rented for
the purpose of preaching by any Christ
ian minister. Polygamy Aourished
luxuriantly. The Bishop mentions in
stances where several sisters were the
wives of one man. In one case, . another
and two daughters enjoyed that honor.
Under these circumstances, the Mormons
have no reason to complain Of the United
States people, who have no hide bound
notions in religion or morals, and are
more tolerant to unbelievers AND polyga-
mists than to men Of their own faith
who have only one wife, but many bales
of cotton.
Possibly Mr.. Lincoln meant no offence
in failing to give expression IN MS last
message to the national sentiment OF re-
spect and esteem for Utah. He is too
much occupied in putting to the sword
his fellow,Christians Of the South to
bestow tho proper civilities upon that
;apey;am ipperio near tho Salt Lake,
where coDcubinage has become > part q.
tho organic law, and no slaves ~ pr.

the disaster inflicted by the terrible cy-
clone in India. A Calcutts letter to tho
London Zines, just received, says:.
g / see that the news Of twelve thou
.eapd persons having been lost in the cy-
Clone was received with incssdaulitg in
Epgland. The estimate was wide Of the
truth, but only because it vastly under
rated the calamity. As every one who
knows this country will readily conceive,
there is no possibility Of ascertaining
precisely the loss Of life, because hum
dreds might be swept away and leave no
trace behind. But we are not without
data for arriving at conclusion, and it
has now been calculated that there can.
not be fewer than sixty thousand persona
drowned or otherwise killed by that
fearful storm. In the island Of Saugor
alone, before the cyclone, there we're
eight thousand two hundred persons.-
Thore are now about one thousand two
hundred; nor have any left it to 60
elsewhere. Seven thousand were carr
ried clean away by the storm waya-
All up the river the population has
been swept. off, if not in the same
proportion, yet in very large num-
bers. AS we all anticipated, disease
is raging everywhere-cholera, fever
and smallpox. The epidemic fever,
which have mentioned in previous let
! ters this year, is depopulating whole dis
tricts. A magistrate told me the other
day that he had been riding through .
village in which there was hardly
grown-up person left. They had died
without hope of assistance, withoutmedi-
cine, without food-for the crops are
rottins on the ground in many places
| where the salt water rushed in, The
Bengalcse arc in . dcplorable plight, and
the zemmdars increase the general mi~
sery by turning the ryets out Of their
huts because they are behindhand with
their rents. There is money enough
here to give relief-such relief as can bo
got for money. But human means seem
quite poverless to stop the awful di-
seases that arc walking through the land,
carrying thousands before them. The
native feels himself i'll, wraps himself in
his blanket, says it is fate, and 80 Pc
rishes. In this enormous population
let it be remembered that here in
Bengal alone we have at least forty-fve
million of people-the few Europeans
can only do good here and there, and yet
| it is solely by Europeans that good is
being done. The rich native will not
help his countrymen. God gave him hls
money, and God intended him to keep
it. That is pretty much his mode Of
l Al Al
him, and then in abject terror he offers
English doctors . fee of five hundred
rupees to come and visit him. In re>
cent case of that sort the man-who
was worth about four millions sterling
had refused to give pice to the poor
after the cyclone When death was 1T
his throat he altered his mind, and pro-
missed large bepefactions il he recovered.
He was not spared to add falsehood to
his cruel service"

with the blessing Of Heaven, we shall
have Peace and Independence, but this is
the reliance" the courage and forti-
tude Of the army, sustained by the pa
triotism and frmness Of the people"
No one doubts the courage and forti-
tude Of those men who, for four long
years, have been confronting danger,
death and every human privaticn. Gene
raj Bee may rely upon them while one
Of their honest hearts continues to beat.
Will not 1.-THE people" show equal
patriotism and firmness with their
defenders? Will they desert the meh
who have so long stood between them
and ruin like wall Of FIRE? Lin
coin has appeared in person on the
scene to.show the most timed and igno-
bic that there is no way of earthly SAL
vation left open to them but through the
gate of War. 50 g.
No exhortations are now needed to-
loyalty and courage. But we may be
permitted to remind every citizen that
he has a duty to perform not less impor-
taut than that Of bearing arms. If he
is not required to shoulder his musket,
he is under solemn obligations to give
his whole moral weight and such mate
rial aid as he can render to the cause of
the country. If he is not required to
fight, he can at least encourage, by his
hopeful and lofty bearing, those who DO;
he can refrain from croaking and long
face he can speak words of cheer and
hope, and resolution. The soldiers will
do their duty if the people will do theirs.
The requirements of that Patriotism Of the
People upon which General Lee relies
demand that croaking should cease, that
speculation should come to an end, that
there should be no more discord between
those who are embarked in a common
vessel and have a common destiny,
that Congress should place at General
Lees disposal the means he requires
If this is done, the day is not distant
when brighter sky will dawn upon the
long night through which We have strug,
gled, and the Sun Of Peace and Inde-
dence emerge at last from the horizon
General Lee only says, what the military
organ of the United States has conceded,
that the moralstrenyM of the Confcde-
racy is Gibraltar of security. Faith,
Hope and Charity, the great graces o.
Christianity, arc as essential to our ma
tional as to our spiritual salvation.

A True Picture.

We shall not recover in this country, fol
twenty-five years, says the New York Jour.
nal Of Commerce, from the evils brought upon
US in the interests of despotsm by the Stan.
tons, the Holts, and their radical allies, The
very sense of freedom has been bluuted in
the popular mind, and the nation has forgot
ten what was once the brthright of an Amer
lean citizen. Free speech, free discussion, 10
which once rested our liberties, have been
wrested from our people so long by the over
bearing insolence of Office holders and their
supporters, that they are scarcely priced as
they once were The Tribune says that Sec.
retary Stanton seems incapable of compre.
bending that this country has, or should have,
any other law than his arbitrary will No
one doubts the truth Of this assertion yet
what effect does it produce on the public
mind There was day when the very fact
that such an assertion could be made at all,
with even the suspicion OF its possible truth,
would have aroused every city and village in
the land. Public meetings would have been
held at every cross roads. The indignant
heart of America would have sent the blood
to cheeks of very boys in the streets, and a
voice of free nation would have been heard
asserting TO the world the power of its free
dom. Now, you listen-you admit--and you
sit down quietly and wonder how long it will
last. ..... .-.r.t .tr
