The Argument About Polygamy-Pro and
Con.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
After watching closely the discussion between
Orson Pratt and DR.. Newman on the question
"Does the Bible Sanction Polygamy, or, more
properly Polygenyw we do not hesitate to
declare the whole proceeding a failure for both
sides, for the distinguished orators were unable
to produce passages strictly prohibiting or
allowing polygamy. Mr.. Newman tried
to induce his adversary to argue on the question
from social standing point, but in vain, as the
Mormon elder knew very well there was no chance
left for him on that battle field. Nature, justice,
morality and history condemn this institution with
equal severity. God, in creating the same num-
Der in both sexes, meant, evidently, that one man
was made for one woman If we sanction poly
gamy we have no cause not. to admit
polyandry, or, in other words, sanction
the social evil as legal institution. Polygamy
destroys beneficial effects of family life, the main
foundation of Christian civilization. Political
tyranny IL natural consequence of domestic
despotism established by the plurality Of wives.
History shows too plainly to contest that native
decadency has always been the destiny Of
polygamic nations. Excess In sexual pleasure
produces decline in physical as well intellectual
power. Turkey, In the state Of disorganization,
and her inhabitants, with their lazy indifference,
to anything and every thing, il living example Of

The Pulpit Sermons Of the Day.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:-
Churchgoing ia associated with my earliestr recol-
lection. But now, being in my sixty-ninth year,
and not being able to hear very distinctly, am
glad Of an opportunity to read report of the
different sermons delivered in New York city, pub
1ished in the NEW York HERALD, that may still
be able to watch the movements of old ship Zion,
although those reverend divines very forclbly
remind me Of Q company Of foxes running in q
new fallen snow crossing their track in every
direction and then lodging back into their holes
safe because no one will ever be able to track
them. But mind is unfolding, and by the light of
metaphysical science--this science is an ex-
ceedingy high mountain, where the devil is now
taking us-we can see all the kingdoms of the world
in moment of time by this light; we can see
them every time they cross their track, or, in
other words set down wrong figure. We are no
doctor of divinity, and if Divinity is sick it is be-
cause he is 30 badly treated by his doctors.

Mistaken Gallanfry of the Boston POST
master-Delay In the Distribution of
Misunderstanding Of Female Clerks.
From the New York Herald
Boston, September %, lH0.-The bust
ness men of Boston, and almost the whole
community as WE'LL are greatly and indig-
nantly exercised about the management Of
the PostOffice. Some months since Post
master Burt inaugurated the practical re-
cognition of the talent Of woman by placing
lady clerks at the ladies' windows, and no
complaints ensuing, he has, within few
days, displaced nearly the whole force of
male window clerks with female employees.
The result has been not only constant sue
cessiOn of blunders in the distribution of the
mails, but the assortment of letters and
papers lis delayed several hours, in some
cases, beyond the time formerly consumed
by the old and experienced male clerks
The mails from New York, heretofore usually
distributed within an hour after arrival.
are now rarely distributed the following
morning. There is talk of a public indigna
ton meeting on the part of the citizens. for
the purpose of properly representing their
grievances to the Postmaster General.

Three or four years ago he was in yery
delicate condition. A disease of the ankle
bones and other alarming symptoms APP
peared saw him almost daily at Biarritz
at this time, and when he was playing with
young Conneau on the terrace of the
chateau, it was easy to see how he lmped,
and when he went out into the town he
a WAYS rode in a carriage, even when the
Emperor and Empress were on foot. The
great physical fatigue and anxiety to which
the poor boy has Of late been subject have
