What person is there among US that
has not expressed their great amazment
at the ease, with which protested magi-
clans have performed the feats of their
chosen art. Wonder, Armament, and Gu
riosity, usually beget thought, study and
examination. Perseverance in the per-
suit of an object, is generally favored
with success. What appears 30 miracu-
lous, and wonderful in the magic art is
traceable, and attributable to the SIM
plest natural end physical causes. And
the moment the simple measures by
which any supposed wonderful feat is per.
formed, is ascertained that soon il is shorn
of its miraculous character, ard ceases
to be a matter of wonder. The only
thing remaining worthy Of oommenda,

Mormonism.

Perhaps it is not generally known that
it is a cardinal principal of belief ambhg
the mormons, that the female sex, the
entire race considered exceeds the male
in the ratio of about seven to one. 1t is
upon this theory that they found their
belief in the propriety of plurality of
wives. Recently, Brigham Young de-
livered in the tabernacle at Salt Lake, a
sermon, which, to his deluded followers
might seem unanswsrabl1 to carry with
it the sanction of the scriptures in favor
of polgamy. He based his harangue
upon the text, in substance, that the time
should come, when seven women should
cling to one man; that they would spin,
TO-, earn their own living, if he would
take away their disgrace by allowing
them to be called by his name. Young
argued from this, that the rsormons were
but carrying out the DEGREES of God,
whereas, the Government, by "unfriendly
legislation" was determined to prevent
the fulfllmept of this prophecy. He
thought God would win in the contest,
and all bormondom shouted amen! He
instapced the great excess of females in
Lowell, Mass, to prove his theory. Per-
hapa the allusion would have been as fair,
had he instanced the excess in female
seminary; but to the intensely ignorant
assembly before him, it was mathematic-
al proof. II occurs to us, that if the
true law Of nature as to our race could
be placed before this people, the main
pillar of their so called religious belief
would fall, and with it, the whole fabric
of pormondom. While the chief lead
ders are, perhaps without exception, I'M
principsalcd villains, and pursue these
attrocious doctrines for interest sake, and
the qualification of their bestial lusts, the
duped multitude are honest in their faith,
and cling to them as the pathways to
Heaven. Though poverty stricken, sur
rounded by naked, starving children,
they, religiously, contribute to Young
one tenth of their gross annual products.
Their interests are clearly adverse to their
religion. Gould the doctrines preached
by Young be demonstrated to them math.
ematically to be false, would they cling to
them against their INTEREST," We think not.
Statistics of the civilized world show this
doctrine is precisely opposed to the
facts. Instead of the female sex, the
male considerably preponderates at birth.
This preponderance throughout Europe
continues till, probably, about the age of
Is, when the ssxss are equal. In France
the excess of males over females under
FIVE years, is, by last census, "A, 103; the
excess over Eve, and under ten is 81 1859;
between tsn and fifteen, it is 5S,253.
The same, or very nearly the same ratio
Owyhee bullion. [volume] (Silver City, I.T. [Idaho]) 1866-1867, 1867-02-14

of excess of males over females is shown
by the census Of England, Scotland, Bel
GUM and any other European countries.
Between Is and 20, the female sex there
begins to preponsrate, Stfying an equal
at about the age of 49, This disparity
agaiost The male sex, is however slight,
and is ess,ly accounted for by losses from
frequent wars, camp life, to which all the
youth are exposed, and among other
causes, Immigration. In the United
States where tbs iusitdtiou makes its
home, the reverse of tue rule in Europe
maintains, ailer the age Of Is. Here the
male population exceeds the female, un-
der the age of70. After that age, wo-
men are in the majority, which shows
curious TACT, that women are of greater
longevity than men. After the age of
90, the proportion is in the ratio Of 8 to
2 throus bsut the civilized world. But
this discrepancy arises after the age of
marage has passed. And the excess Of
male over female population in the Unit
ed States is owing to two causes First,
the absence of wars, until the late war.
(1hese obse ya.iols are based upon the
census Of 1862 Second, to emigration
from Europe. In some of the Eastern
States the female sex dependencies. This
is owing 10 immig, alton of young men
TO the Western States, where, again, the
mile pc ,ulaiion is in excess. In the Pa
ciic states and territories, including Utah,
this excess of males is more than two to
one. From these facts we may deduce
these conclusions. That nature has accu-
ratel = equalized the losses accruing from
the more exposed sphere designed for
men, by law Of humanity that more
msles should be born than females. That |
this prepondelance ceases at the age |
Of marriage. And that the voice Of ma
ture is, therefore, that the sexes should
pair equally. The voice of nature is the
voice Of God.
We oncsfhad conversation with one
of tbs Elders,of the pofmons, and when
we told him, as matter Of absolute count,
the male sex was in excess of the female
up to the age of marriage, he expressed
great establishment. Ii is the intense
ignorance of this people, being gathered
from the ofscourings of Europe, that ena.
bles that designing man ofno ordinary ex-
ecutive ability,to perpetuate this gsngrene
on the body.politio. There is field for
missionaries here in our own midst which,
if true christianity were not too much ab-
sorbed in the heather abroad, and the in
evitabls African at home, would furnish
scope for ability and true piety, and be-
stow the rewards of success, as well as of
renown upon him who accomplished it.
Under the protection of the Govern
ment we hope the schoolmaster and
preacher will soon subjusate mormon
dom.

Is the Constitution Tenable.
A late telegram announces :

ment Committees in regard to the Presi-
dents speech, charging the responsible
ty Of the riot on Congress, and his exact
language when he said he would kick
out of Office those who would not sup
port his policy
Surprising the President did use the
exact language above, (Which we never
remember as having yefore seen charged)
is it matter for impeachment? The con-
stitution declares that "freedom of speech
and of the press shall forever be invic-
late" There is not man 10 the Unit
ed States who has not perfect, lawful
and constitutional right to repeat the
above language hundred times day,
and be guilty of no offence. Is it then
to be understood as the creed of the insane
negro worshiping Congressional majority,
that the President has less right to free
dom of speech that any other citizen of
the United States Besides, from Wash
linton down, the right of the President
to remove from Office those who did not
support "his policy" has been universal
ly practiced, and has never been ques.
toned till now. Is it then a matter of
impeachment that President johnson
declares he will exercise the same powers
as President, which have been exercised
BY all his predecessors And all this, is
proposed by party who went into pow
er proclaiming freedom of speech and of
the press, as their watchword But, who
no sooner obtained power than they sig
nalized their triumph, by destruction Of

oning those who differed with them 10

Some of the Louisiana Republi-

Some of the Louisiana Republi-
.cans now propose Gen. Longstreet
.,for Senator. We have no idea that
,the General would accept position
from that source. He says it was
not his intention to ally himself
with the Radicals bnt simply to OK
press his opinion of the situation
into which the South had been
practically brought by the war.
No doubt the General, us n soldier,
looks at this matter in o different
light from that recognized by many
politicians and there can be no
question that in writing his letter,
as in exposing his life on the battle
field, he was actuated by no selfish
motives, but by a sincere desire for
what he believed to be the interests
Of the South. Whoever else may
abrse him, we cannot; however we
may honestly differ with him in
opinion.-Gd'. NerS.

we have never been to Jefferson, but we
rather incline TO the opinion that it is too
far to the East and that Paris would be the

the place, we suggest that Col. Dc Morse, of
the Standard, or Mr.. Lowery, of the Marsh
