A DEMoRALIzED Cow,-Since Mrs.
'O'Leary's COW got her name in the pa
pers, the whole envious bovine family
are cutting up didoes to secure an equal
notoriety. the latest exploits are by a
COW belonging to Mrs, Lambert Of Bay
city, Mich. Exploring his back yard
on recent evening she put her head in
to barrel, which she couldn't get off,
and becoming very much frightened at
her condition, she blindly forced her way
into the wood-shed, thence into the Sitch-
en-, and thence into the dining-room of
the house, becoming all the while more
furious. From this room she made her
way into the parlor, throwing down and
trampling under foot everything that
came in her way. Mrs. Lambert arous.
ed her husband, who arose, but finding
he could do nothing, went for help. The
COW next rushed into the bedroom where
Mrs. Lambert, with little baby and one
child occupied bed, and another little
child Il crib in front of it. The enraged
animal mounted the bed, but help arriv-
ed, and not an instant too soon. The
window was raised from the outside, and
a neighbor attempted to enter. when the
barrel gave him blow which knocked
him back against the fence. The child
rem were at last secured and passed
through the window, and Mrs. Lam bert
soon followed. The door of the bedroom
was then closed and the COW left to her
self. She finally became soothed, and
walked out after demolishing all the nice
furniture in the lower part of the house.

MOhMON TROUBLES,
In Utah, there still remains remnant
of barbarism, repugnant to civilization,
to decency and the laws of the United
States. Territorial officers, however,
have beer found, who are willing to per.
form their duty in spirit of equity, and
with due sense of sustaining the males
ty of law. Neither polygamy, nor any
other violation of existing statutes, will
be permitted within the territory of the
United States. 1t is not with the relig-
ion of the selfstyled saints that we are
now dealing, but their practices. They
will be protected in the worship of God
according to the dictates of their con.
sciences, but they will not be permitted
to violate the laws under the cloak of
religion. 1t may be advisable for Con.
gress to consider what, in the executions
of laws against polygamy, is to be the
status in regard to plurality of wives and
their offspring. The propriety of Con-
gress, passing an enabling act, author
izing the territorial legislature of Utah
to legitimise all children born prior to a
time fixed in the act, might be justified
by its humanity to these innocent chill.

THE KU- KLUX.

The president makes plain statement
of the affairs relative to the Ku-Klux,
especially in South Carolina. Great
caution was exercised in making arrests,
and notwithstanding the large number
arrested, it is believed no innocent per.
son is now in custody. Nor has there
been any doubt as to the need of the
strong arm of the military to suppress:
this reasonable organization.
