a Mormon woman on Polxgamy
PUBLIsHER AND PROPRIETOR,


Mormon woman writes to the Union
Vedette, the Gentle paper at Salt Lake city,
as follows. showing with what loathing the
victims of Mormon lust regard the "pecu-
liar institutionr
In our ward meetings our bishops and
teachers are urging the men to take more
women, and the young men to be more en-
ergetie In securing the best looking and
most intelligent girls. The following is a
part ofa discourse | listened to the other
evening: 'These long winter evenings are
n good time to visit the sisters and court
early and late; If you do not, the cursed
Gentiles and soldiers win get the best look
ing. In spite of the holiness ofo religion
and the revelations ofthe Lord through our
prophets, our most intelligent women and
girls rebel. They don't understand It, that
nothing good In itself can be enjoyed with
out sacrifice, and that God has given them
cross to bear; also, to the old and young
men say, be more attentiye to these wa
vering sisters take them ont sleigh-riding,
to the theatre, and be sure to invite them
To all our social parties; be wide awake, for
the devil is after your best looking women.
as he was In the garden of Eden; and they,
poor silly fools, shut their hearts to the
light shining out Of Zion, and are contin-
ually, in spite Of our teaching and the di-
rect commands of the prophets and God,
TuilllHB dlJcT JnC lOTDluuen 1TulL. Dub every
one that does will surely go to hell.r
Ifyou outsiders will notice you will sec
that all those women who have broke loose
from polygamy are having more attention
from the brethren than ever before; and
you have no conception to the jesuitcal
power of the church OF 'Isatter Day Saints"
(Which means Brigham, Heber q Coz in
the unwrltten life of this people. The
women of Mormonism IN theirinmost souls
shrink with horror from the degrading
revelation which prostitutes the fairest
and most aspiring of our sex TO satisfy the
beastly lusts of old, fat, grey-headcd saints"
tottering to their graves. With some these
saints and teachers are meek and quiet rs
lambs; with others they rail like madmen,
and threaten the vengeance of heaven,
always tempering their talk according to
the power they may have over the poor
deluded sister, who must have resolute
spirit to Withstand the willy agents of the
new revelation" and "cXaltation" of n set
of thick-neeked lecherous men, attempting
to drag woman from the high and holy
position she occupies in America as wife,
mother, sister and daughter, to that posi-

she is forced to accept il she consents to

AmalgamatiOn as Seen in the
Dance-HaIls of Boston.

The Boston Post, in describing the
dance-halls in that city, paints vivid pic
lures of vice. Here is his account of one
he entered. There were many others like
it, but we select this as specimen:
Passing into the dance-hall, we find quite
a company present 'tripping the light
fantastic toe" 10 the music of piano forte
with violin accompaniment. This hall Is
about sixty feet deep. and is fitted up with
considerable taste. The walls are hung
with pictures, real and fancy, and, to give
patriotic caste to the whole, the names of
all the Presidents, and the names of the
principal battles In which Massachusetts,
colorcd regiments have served, are printed
in gold ana relieve the sameness of the
dingy walls. But the scene here presented
by those participatingfn the "social dance"
Is not only novel, but disgusting. Young,
good looking white girls and negroes, black
as lamp-black, minglc and commingle in
the dance, and embrace each other with
seeming tenderness of spirit. The tall,
athletic specimen of the genuine African,
with great gustO and enthusiasm, whirls
the young white women In the may dance,
and, at the signal to promenade for drinks
escorts her to the bar and treats her to u
tumbler of spruce beer and some peanuts.
This scene is revolving In the extreme to
one accustomed to respectable society, but
1t Is practiced here, In this mixed company,
nearly every night in the year. Familiar
ity knows no restraints, All are on q level,
and we have here a perfect illustration OF
the theory of negro equality at the expense
of white woman's respect and virtue.
