THE POLYaAMY BILL recently introduced by
Senator Cragin contains clauses of such
sweeping nature that 1t must appear to the
Mormons generally, and especially to Dele
gate Hooper, as the last straw to break down
that pet practice of being too much welded.
Mr.. Cragiu says the Mormons must be married
by regularly appointed, authorized persons
that they must be content with one wife at q
time-a little too bad at this period that if the
person who solemnizes the marriage can be
proved to have acted in colusion with any
parties and joins pair in the holy bonds who
are disqualified by the law he shall be subject
to heavy fine, and stand convicted until it is
paid. and, finally, that if any elder determine
to set the provisions of this act at defiance
and continues to marry "early and often" he
shall have the pleasure Of witnessing the in
ternal operations Of the State Penitentiary,
and serve out any term of hard labor that q
judge, acting under the verdict Of jury, may
direct-between the periods of six and fifteen
months.

ABOUT THAT 'ERA OF GOOD FEELrNG."-
The Portland Press-republican-is fattering
itself that an ''era of good feeling" is approach
ing; that the auti-administration republicans
are not so loud or so active as they were
month ago; that Sumner and Carl Schurz are
in better temper; that even the Tribune
roared very gently over the Message; that the
fate of the Doolittles, Dixons, Chases, Adamses
and other malcontents and conspirators, who
are now laid upon the shelf, affords warn
Ing to ambitious men who would ruin if they
cannot rule great party. Our Portland con-
temporary may think that the 'era of good
feeling" 1t speaks of is not very far off in It's
own locality-about as far, say, as the Custom
House. Its early approach, however, is not
. quite 80 clear in these parts. Like the topper
vending his way homeward at night and
wanting just another ''nightcap," he tries to
corner a stray stamp in his vest pocket he
has very good time ''feeling" for 1t, but his
efforts to secure the prize are unfortunately
not crowned with success. However, it may
do no harm for the republicans to keep on
feeling for that "good time coming" even if
they do have to 'wat a little longer"

British and Spanish Diplomacy Arraycd
Against the United stntcs-The Hornet
versus the Alnbama-EneIaud Making Ont
a Case Against the Payment Of tho Ameri.
can CInims.
The HERALD correspondent in London has
received from the Spanish capital and for
warded us the following special despatch:-
LONDON, Dec. 10, 1871.
A Council Of Ministers was held in Madrid
last Wednesday, the 9th instant, at which all
the members of the Cabinet were present.
The latest state of Cuban affairs and the
alleged violation of neutrality by the United
States with regard to that island were the sub
jects of warm and lengthy discussions.
As the immediate result of the Cabinet
Council an attache Of the Ministry for Foreign
Affairs has left with dispatches to the Spanish
Minister at Washington.
THE ALABAMA CLAIMS.
These dispatches contain important in
structions respecting the attitude OF the
United States toward Spain in Cuba, and are
said to refer to the course of the American
COVE, nment as likely to affect the Alabama
claims in the Geneva Conference by furnish
ing precedents in favor Of the British govern
ment in the cases of the Hornet, the Florida
and the other privateers.
Several interviews have lately taken place
between Selor De Bias, the Spanish Minister
for Foreign Affairs, and the British Minister
at Madrid.

BRUTAL POLIoEMEN.-Is there immunity
allowed to policemen for cracking the skulls Of
wretched and unconscious drunken persons !?
To beat man in that helpless condition is cow
ardly and inhuman, and our Police Commits
sioners should see that such outrages are
no longer permitted. The recent shocking
case Of policemen dragging drunken man
down stone steps, his head bouncing and
bleeding at every step, and pushing the
poor. half-frozen, battered wretch, like a
slaughtered hog, into a frost-bound cell, is one
that demands rigid investigat ion by the Police
Commissioners, in order that summary punish
ment shall be inflicted upon the offender. The
public want no whitewashing verdict of Coro-
ner's jury in case like this.

FEMALE EDUCATION IN THE UNIVERSITY OF
EDNBURG. ladies have matric-
ulated in the University of Edinburg. These
ladies, for the most part, enter the University
for the purpose of studying medicine. The
professors who objected to the female students
last year, but who were overruled by the Uni
versity Council, must now quietly submit. 1t is
quite manifest that the Edinburg ladies mean
to take advantage of their opportunities. 1t is
healthful sign. We know no good reason why
ladies should pot fully participate in all Uni
versity privileges. If education is good for
man it ought not to be bad for woman. The
bluestocking is not necessarily the fruit Of
education.
