FROM BARBOUR COUNTY

Editors of the Register:
l have read with no small interest
your leader on "Our Fall Elections"
and am pleased to think that the day is
not far distant, when parties will be
formed upon principles looking to the
development of tlfe interests of our gal
liant little mountain State, and that po-
litical issues will no longer be made on
the misfortunes of those who went into
the rebellion. For some time past we
have heard nothing but "Rebel," "Reb.
ell" and to my mind both political par
ties have been at fault on this question.
No party should make enfranchisement
aparty hobby, as it question far above
party issue. Too long already have the
rebels of our State been made the scape.
goats for the sins of political partisans,
As it is quite evident that rebels were
not disfranchised for their participation
in the' rebellion, but for political and
party purposes and now that reason is
about to be enthroned again, let US do
all we can to effect that end.

The Trousers Question.

The Boston Post says: The mysteries
of unifurcate and bifnrcate clothing, as
adapted to reform ladies, are profoundly
discussed by DR.. Charming in the Rero
luton. The pantalette is stlgmatlzsd as
An abomination, and preference is given
to the dress of the Swiss peasantess,
which consists of ornamental stockings
and shoes-ratber a meagre costume.
but economical, as it allows ease OF
motion for walking, working, or dane
ing. The doctor handles his topic
boldly when he presumes to say
the contour of the leg should be pre-
served in dress, and will attract Miss
Olive Logan's sarcasm by his citation of
the conventional page of the theater as
tuenishing a worthy suggestion for a
new female costume, Including the
full, slashed silksn trousers above the
knee" and the tights, We suppose, OF
course, for the material used IN a
theatrical pages "trousers" is usually
scanty. For the upper part OF the
dress the Doctor recommends the Gre-
clan tunic and under vest as always
beautiful" and he proceeds TO argue
the matter of the. closure of the female
skirt, which really is so far trench
ing upon an extremely delicate matter
that we must let the Doctor go 1t alone
He concludes with a good word for the
Gabrielle" with the skirt just to the
knee, and head dress. (which Will IN
no event be bonnet" The Doctor Will,
of course, be made an honorary soresis
az once; he grapples with a topic that
has fearfully agitated the female mlsd T;
and, we trust, has solved the great PROD
lem of reform attire. Now, we hope
soon 10 see some ladies in pages trous'
ers and Grecian tunic before the severe
weather sets in, as in a few weeks the
atmosphere will hardly be propltlous'

A meteor, which ascended vertically
and descended over the same course,
was seen at Philadelphia and Washing
ton Tuesday evening. 1t was not os-
served at the Naval Observatory in
Washington, because none of the astron-
omers have yet returned from their ex-
peditions to observe the solar eclipse.
The coroner's investigation in the
case of the drowning of Ellen Culver,
who, it is alleged, committed suicide
near the Shaker Village, on the 5th of
June last, was resumed before Coron er
Allen and jury at Fields Hotel, in New
Lebanon, Tuesday. A number Of wit
nesses were examined, among them Ben-
jamin Gates, one of the trustees of the
Shaker Society. Nothing was ELECTED
tending to throw any light upon the
motive of the woman in committing
suicide. The inquest was adjourned
until yesterday morning.

Family.
A correspondent of the New York Tri.
buHe gives some OF the horrors Of Nor
IN onism: The number of Brigham's
living wives is eighteen, exclusive of
those who are merely sealed to him for
the next word. He has been credited
with mere than this, and it is now stated
that he has less, but lam informed on
the best authority that correct census
of his household would show eighteen
wives and forty-nine children. Among
the later are a bevy of as handsome
young girls as can be found anywhere.
These are, Of course, in demand, and
they are marrying off pretty fast. Some
times he gives more than one of them
to the same man, as, for instance, to the
Superintendent of the Western Union
Telegraph Office, who has two of Brig
hams daughters, and is doubly son-in-
law of the prophet. 1t is said that the
old gentleman has recently made it a
rulo that whoever marriGs the last
daughter of one of his wives shall take
the mother home also. This may ac-
count for the reduced estimate of his
wives which has lately been given. One
of the Mormon officials of Salt Lake
City has for one of his wives his step.
sister, the daughter of his own mother,
while the marriage of man to moth
er and daughter is by no means upcom-
mon. An old Dane living near Ogden
has for wives mother and her three
daughters. According to the Mormon
view, this is commendable, as it keeps
families topether
In the country districts it is said wo-
men are really bought and sold like
sheep. Two old fellows will make a
bargain by which each agrees to become
father-in-law and son.inlaw to the
other; or when there is only one daugh-
ter in the case yoke of cattle or some
other equivalent is given. This swap
ping is not confined to outlying settle
ments. A prominent Mormon in Salt
Lake-a man of intelligence and educa-
tion-told me that he only consented to
let one of his daughters beco me a sixth
wife at sixteen because he himself
wanted relative of the same age for
his fifth wife. He did not have slightest
shame in the confession, and seemed to
think it good joke.

Naming Race Horses.

The names bestowed upon race horses
are often remarkable for their ingenious
absnrdity. We learn from Belts I'VE
that there is now in England a trottIng
horse called By the sweet name Oh rig
Poisoner," the meaning of which, II 1t
has any, lies too deep for the grasp OF L., the
ordinary mind. The writer has very
distinct recollection of a race morse
called "Cruel OYSTERS name that can
only be accounted for on the hypotnes.S
that the nomenclator had been unlof,
tupate in bivalvular speculation, ana
SO made his horse q monitor agalns. gI

which was that Salt Fish" was good lot

perceives in it something beyond a
chronicle of small beer, destiny that

the Infinite. We hope to see fuller ex-
