Brigllam on Poiygam Y.

The following portion of BRIGHAM
YoUNG's address at the semi-annual Con-
rerencc lately held at salt Lake City, is
taken from his own organ, the Deseret
Ne,os, and is fair sample of the arguments
used by the Mormons in defense of their
peculiar idea:
The last time was in the city of Lowell,
there were fourteen thousand more females
| than males in that one city. This is many
years ago. They live and die in n single
state and are forgotten. Have they filled
| the measure of their creation, and accom-
| plished the designs of heaven i'm bringing
them upon the earth? No. they have not
| Two thousand good, God fearing men

seven wives apiece, IL is written in the
Bible. 'and in that day, seven women shall
| lay hold of one man, saying we will eAt our
own bread, and wear our own apparel {;
| only let us be called by thy name, to take
away our reproacb.n The Government of
the United States do not intend that the
prophecy shall be fulfilled and the Lord AL
mighty means that it shall. Do you not
think that the Lord will conquer? think
he will and we are helping him. 1t is taC
decree of the Almighty that in the last
DAYS seven women shall take hold of one
man, &c, to be counseled and advised by
him, being willing to spin their own wool,
make theirowu clothing, and do everything
they can to earn their own living, if they
can only bear his name to take away
their reproach. What is this order for?
is for the resurrection; it is not for th
world. | would not go across this bowerl
for polygamy, ifit only pertained to thi
world. IL is for the resurrection, and th
: spirit of the Lord has come upon the peo-
pie, and upon the ladies especially. TO pre-
pare the way for the fulfllment his word
: The female sex have been deceived so long
. and been trodden under foot by man g
, long, that n spirit has come upon them, ant
they want n place. and a name, and head
for the man is the head ot the woman, t

eT The Hartford Times truthfully says,
that. at the close Of the war there was an
opportunity to make friends of the South
era people. They readily assented to the
abolition OF slavery, making the whole
country tree. They were ready to swear
allegiance to the Constitution ofthe United
States, and to abide by it in good faith.
Had they been treated in a friendly spirit,
and as Americans, willing to perpetuate the
Union, we should have had friendship
that would have been Il guarantee" in
deed. But we can have no guarantee OF
Union aud of Republican institutions, by
measures which violate the first principles
Of both We cannot have that guarantee
through despotism, by which portion o
the States rule the other portion with {
rigid hand, allowing the governed to have
no voice in the Government.

Poor People and Poor Money.

In sermon on the disadvantages Of be-
ing poor. preached by HENRY WARD
BEECHER last week occurred the follow
ing:
In all the troubles and mischiefs that
arise from false weights and spurious cur
rency, it is usually the poor that suffer
most. Here is "A spurious quarter of dol
lar. The merchant, in whose hands it
chances TO be, thoughtlesslY of course,
(for merchants are always honestly passes
it to the trader; and he, seeing that IL does
not look quite right, but noU thinking it
worth while to scrutinize 10 too closely,
passes It to the grocer; and he. glancing mt
it. aud moi lining the looks of it exactly.
but not wishing 10 be particular, aud
saying, IL took il, and must get rid OF it,
passes it. to the market man; and he say
ing 1T might as well be kept travelling
passed it as he is journeying to the conduc-
tor; and he, knowing that it is not good,
but dislilling TO say any thing to the man,
says TO himself II will keepit and give it
to somebody else and passes it to the sew
ing woman. She Is poor, and person that
is poor Is always watched; ald when she
offers H. it is discovered TO be spurious, and
is refused sad she looks at it, and says,
"It is nearly my whole days wages but it
Is counterfeit, and of course | must not
pass IT." and she burns it up, and so is the
only honest one among them all. Bad bills,
spurious currency, almost always settle on
| the poor at last.

THE UNsoLvED PROBLEM.

sWill the Blacks work ~ was question anxlousy,
obviously debated in 1865 it is debated no longer
It has been proved that the Blacks 'rut work. pro
vided they can be reasonably assured oil lar payment
There are moderately Idle and vicious negroes, Of
course just as there are idlcrs and reprobaes OF all
races: but there are this day larger per centage OF
the Blacks than Of any other race inhabitng this
country who are earning an honest living by down
right manual labor. Those who won't work viii die
out-persh miseraby from of the face Of the earth,
be they Of what race or color they may; but the vast
majority Of the Blacks will work and live, pro-
vidod the badly reconstructed Rebe..s ana their
COfperhead allies will refrain from wantonlg killing
them. So much experience has proved. But ""ill
the Southern Whitss work." That is a more difficult
problem. AS class, work is not In their line. They
were not trained to it, and they do MT like it, They
believe work good thing for niggers, but bad for
Whites, especially in the sunny South" This day,
twohrds Of all the rations dealt out by the Freed
mems Bureau are consumed by needy Whites-most
of them the widows and orphans of Rebel soldiers.
These are on he brink of starvation, no doubts but if
their surviving brothers and uncles would only work,
they would not long be dependent on the Bureau.
And it is high time that they ceased to be.
TIE Lynckbwg Tirginian fOrcbly says:
There are vast numbers OF young IN the South living
in ideness which we regret very much to see The saws
contemporary toeahc when they possessed Ortuue;
magnitude. We know that in many these Young men
would be glad 10 get work-of certain kind They would
practice law medicine engage In mercantile pursuits or
manage farm, get Up and deliver lecture; but finding
opening in these occupations they lying on their oars
and doing nothing The young OF the South must come
down 10 manual aborthey must come to the conclusion
that honest work With the hands is better than no WORK ct
all"
If the Southern journals generally would talk
like The Pirgini0n the Union would soon be recon-
structed without the aid of the Randall Convention
The best way 10 reconcile all remaining differences is
to have every set to work The industrious, frugal
thrifty masses never ncite needless rcbcllions; the
dle shiftless dissolute raScals who gather around
courthouses and OF crossroad groggeres the boys
who make oil the trouble If the South could but
her Whites to work as generally as her Blacks
arc now working, she would very soon find the Gov
eminent good enough for her, would secure all her
rights" and be entirely contented and prosperous.

Mr. Randolphs letter to The TRIBUNE, in regard TO
his late interview with the President is straghtior
ward md we are glad to know that his effort to es-
tablish colored schools in Louisiana is 50 well en-
couraged--at the North But how it at the South.
Mr. Randolph Is is not notorious that the schools
for freedmen are only safe when defended by United
States bayonetss We know the importance of Educa-
tion but no colored man should stoop to admit that
is :" the only hope Of his race-not even though q
President asserts it. Nor has any influential and IN
tegent colored right to plead bis nOn-interest
in politics reason for not insisting upon suffrage
for his fellows Above all things let the colOred man
not temporze The best way, the only way to insure
education to the freedman is to insure them their
equalities before Tie law.

Justice Bradys decision is the first important in
stance in which any judicial aid has been given to the
measures Of the Board of Health for the protection OF
the people. We recognize gratefully the feet that this
one Judge. ont Of number who have rendered judg-
ments against the health of the city, has been wise
and honest enough TO declare that not only 10 the
Health Board right in its particular acts against
making public nuisances matter of enterprise, but
that tho extraordinary powers granted to it are con-
stutonal and necessary TIE value of this just and
outright decision plain, and the opinion itself IS
symptom Of returning health, or at least CON-
mendable sanitary effort on the part Of the city
judges. Justice McCunn half agrees with Justice
Brady, and before long hope judges viii have
su one opinion Of legal construction when the public
safety Is endangered. One question remains, which
we leave to our city judges. Ii it is possible to de-
eide that the extraordinary Powers conferred the
Board of Health are constitutional. how happened it
that the more ordinary Excise law was declared nm,

The report of the Reconstruction COMMITTEE which
has been before the public for months, is strongly
sustained by the publication of the evidence on which
it was based. We print to-day an abstract oil the
testimony obtained by the Committee carefully col
lated for The TRIBUNE from the original evidence in
Washington 1t deserves to be studied for the facts
thus proved justification Of the great measures OF
Congress. BY the confession Of leading southerners
alone-excluding the emphatic declarations Of such
men as Gems. Thomas, Sheridan, Terry, 'axton, and
Grierson-it is demonstrated that nothing but mill
tary power keeps the smouldering embersof rebellion
from bursting into new fame. But this I'D evidence
that the Southern Rebels have not accepted their de-
feat as final is being rapidly made obschte by new
outrages and outbreaks. The condition the South
now is far worse than when the Committee prepared
