MORMON ExODUs REPoRTED.-The
Philadelphia Worth american says:
lit is currently reported, upon
authority for which we are not re-
sponsible, that Brigham Young has
purchased two of the Sandwich
Islands, to which he proposes to re-
move and take the disciples with
him. If the report is correct, it is
the most welcome news since the
close of the rebellion. The Mormon
faith and government, occupying a
strange relation to religion and law,
and highly offensive TO nearly every
one in the country, held such po-
sition that they could not well be
sssailed by legal methods, and grew
to such an offensiveness that they
could not well be tolerated. The
saints were driven from Nauvoo for
notorious offences, and in their re-
treat at Deseret, while building q
city and thriving in their business,
have been disloyal, insolent and hos
tile to those enterprises which, If un-
molested. would have done as much
to improve the territory as Brigh'
ANS followers have done. Each
succeeding year must have created
more difficulties between the Nor
mons and the people and Govern
ment, until it is evident, the former
would have been forced to emigratt
again. Ifthey 60 now beyond oul
borders, we shall be able to add tc
the collect for thanksgiving an ack
nowledgment for the destruction o.
our two most offensive nationa
crimes at nearly the same moment

Many of our planters, IL not the greater
portion, allured by ihe high prices Of cot
ton, are aboat 10 give their chief attention.
70 the culture Of this staple, ignoring. TO a
considerable degree, or wholly, the produc-
ton of cereals. We cannot but deem this
course unwise. 1t will not do, in the ex-
perimental era in which we find ourselves,
to count too confidently upon certain
yield Of cotton. Many conditions c0nspire

many conspire 10 insure disastrous failure.

as well 10 prepare against any evil
contingency, rather than take a garn-
bler's hazard Of fortuitous results. 4 We
are strongly Of the opinion that while dne
portion Of each planters land should be
given 10 cotton, an equally judicious appor-
tionment should be set aside for corn. If but
we gravely apprehend partial famine in
1867. Many depend upon the west for corn
in exchange for their cotton, but should the
cotton be short, how shall they be enabled
to purchase breadstufis? Spectators control
the corn as well as other markets, and we
need not hope for succor from them any fur
ther than our ability TO pay. Miserable in
deed wiz be our estaseif such be the case,
and the very wretchedness of this condition
will be aggravated by the reflection that we
will have none to blame but our grasping
selves. Fervently do We pray that such a
consummation will never come, but its very
possibility should make us wise in time for
preparation. We are in a 'bad streak Of
luck, and famine may be in the calendar Of
our future trials, If we do not heed. We
call upon our worthy planters to ponder this
suggestion and act npon II, Il 1t be deserving
