A Mormon Exodus.

IL Is currently reported, upon authority
Tor which we are not responsible, that
brigham Young has purchased two of the
Sanwicli Islands TO which he proposes to
remevh and take the disciples with him
II the report Is correct, IL is the most well
come news we have had since the close OF
The rebellion. The Mormon faith and gov
cinmcnt, occupyinga strange relation TO
religion and law, and highly offensive to
nearly every one IN the country, held such
position that they could not well be as
sailed by legal methods. and grew to such
an oficnsivencss that they could not well be
tolerated.
The saints were driven from Naivoo for
notorious Ollenscs, and in their retreat at
Deseret- while building city and thriving
~ their business have been dislOyal insG-
lent aud hostile 10 those enterprises which,
, II unmolcsted, would have done quite as
much to improve the territory ms Brip-
hams followers have done. Each succeed
Ing year must have created more diiIlrnl-
tics heLween the Mormons and the people
and Government, until 10 Is evident The
former would have been forced to emlgratc
again. II they now 90 beyond our bor-
ders, we shall be able to add to the collec-
ton for Thanksgiving an acknowledgment
for the destruction of our two most often
sivo national crimes at nearly the same mo-
ment---slaYery and polygamy.
The Sandwich Islands are thirteen I'm NUM-
Dcr having an aggregate area of about
O,DOO square miles. Six are mere islets, and
two of the remainder are of small size.
There Is sufficient spare room to sustain the
whole population Of Salt Lake without
trouble, and the climate and peculiar gov
crlment present many attractions 10 4 pe-
ripatctic theology of this sort. But when,
only year or two since, brigham sent n
deputatiOn 0f apostles 10 labor with the
isl9ndals. they were disgusted with the
huth of the book of Mormon, and got rid of
the apostles IN the most summary manner
possible, threatening Imprisonment aud
other punishment. IL seems, lf the current
statement Is true, that they We're not yio6r-
Gus Ia their rejection, and that the children
Of PoInare VIII be called on TO restrain tho
oi'cnses of some from the very race which
carried civilization 10 them.
Whatever effect this emigration NAV
have on the Sandwich Islands, IL will, when
accomplished. instantly give a new start TO
the healthy settlement Of Utah. 10 the ex-
plOration of its mines, the cultivation of
lts heldS and those numerous other pur-
suits which can be adyanlagoously fol-
lowed there. The railr0Ad enterprises Of
dat seetl1n will not sullcr, aud Il Is hard To
see What loss We shall have to deplore or
advantage the IIawalans can exult over.
Looking at the mere face Of the movement.
II Is one of tho most singular hegiras on
record, and probably the last which Joe
Smiths followers viii ever have the
strength 10 make-PhH. North American.
