Yerger, the murderer of Col. Crane,
at Jackson, Miss, goes scot free. The
grand jury came into court a few days
ago without finding bill of indictment
against him, and asked to be discharged.
The Judge refused to discharge them,
which decision caused considerable ex-
element in Jackson. All the colored
men on the jury were in favor of find
ing an indictment.

President Grant has been violently
assailed by some republicans for having
characterized the Gratz Brown move
ment in Missouri, as an effort to disOr-
ganize the republican party. We do
not see how any intelligent republican
who desires to see the unity of the re-
publican party preserved intact, can
honestly differ with the President. This
result is certainly being accomplished
in Missouri, and how good republicans
can lend it any sympathy and encour-
agement we cannot understand.

The population of Leavenworth we
learn includes that of Fort Leavenw orth
also, which would reduce it about 1000.
The whole State has a population of
359, 349, against 107 1904 in 1860, a very
remarkable increase.
Leavenworth has no doubt fallen off
since the war, from five to ten thousand,
as from the vote polled in 1865 indi-
dated much larger population then
than now.
Lawrence has increased much, but the
largest increase has been in Atchison,
Fort Scott and Junction City, relative

to her present and prospective railroad
connections, Atchison to the same caus-

THE METROPOLITAN RAuRoAD.-We are
glad to note some further indications that Mr..
Garrett means cuisines" on this road from
Washington to the Point OF Rocks. On Tuesday
last, We are informed, fifteen sections Of the
road were awarded to responsible men, condi-
toned that the work on each sections hall be
finished in twelve months. These, with the
seven sections already under contr act, and the
ten finished, leave but ten to be put under con-
tract. The company's force will, he hear, do the
work upon two Of the ten sections not under
contract; the remaining eight are so light that
they can be done in six months time, and they
will be let out in the fall.
Engineer Randolph has made ranzemsnts
to pay for the right of way on the whole line.
and will begin making the payments on his re-
turn from the Ohio river, where he has gone for
q short time.
This Is encouraging news in regard to the
progress OF the work on the railroad of m Ain
Importance to Washington. The work on the
Baltimore and Potomac road seems ID be fair
ly in progress; and the ferment of charter
getting for railroads from Washington to Fred
ericksburg, Va, will, We trust, result in the
construction Of at least one of the two or three
lines talked about.
The indications are decidedly hopeful for a
year Of no little activity in the way of railroad
construction in the vicinity of Washington.

Brigham Young openly confesses that he does
not go to the Bible for polygamy, and that his
belief In the sacred Scriptures is very limited
In one OF his sermons, or addresses he said:
" You believe Adam was made of the dust Of
tins earth. This do not believe You can
write that information to the States IL Won
please-that1 have publicly declared that do
not oeheye that portion Of the Bible as the
Christian world do. 4 never did, and I never
want TO; because have come to UNDERSTANDING
ana oaDlshed from my mind all the baby stories
my mother taught me when / was a child"
From such unbelief as this springs the inces-
tuous practices Of the Latter-Day Saints. The
Mormon may marry every month in the year as
long as he lives, and, If he cannot feed and
clothe bis women, make them feed and clothe
themselves, and him in the bargain. And he NAV
and does marry mother and daughter, and
granddaughter, two or three sisters, his nieces
his hslf-sisters, anybody. Hepworth Dixon,
who is regarded as a Mormon apologist, says: 81
asked the President (Brigham) whether, with
his new lights on the virtue OF breeding in and
in, he saw any objections to the marriage OF
brother and sister. Speaking for himself, not
for the Church, he said he sap none at all. In
cest, in the sense in which we use the word
marriage within the prohibited degrees-is not
regarded as a crime in the Mormon Church"
