The process of seasons has again
enabled the husbandmen to garner
the fruit of successful toll. Industry
has been generally well rewarded
We are at peace with all nations
Tranquility, with few exceptions,
prevails mt home. Within the pasI
year we have in the main been free
from the ills which elsewhere affect,
ed our kind. If some of us have
had calamities there should have
been occasion for sympathy with
sufferers and resignation on theiI
part to the will Of the Most High,
and rejoicing to the many who have
been more favored.
1 therefore recommend that on
Thursday, the 3Oth day of November
next, the people meet at their re.
spcctive places of worship, there to
make the usual Acknowledgements to
Almighty God for the blessings He
has conferred upon them ; their mer-
ciful exemption from evils; invoke
His protection and kindness for their
less fortunate brethren whom in
His wisdom He deemed 1t best to

THE Courier continues to charge
the result If the late election In this
city as a systematic design of Harlan
leaders. We have stated heretofore
that such a charge wal entirely with.
out foundation, that on the other
hand the rank and file of the disaf.
fected. as a rule, were Allison or
anti Harlan men. We presume the
Courier expects to make capital for
Mr.. Allison, by footing Its horn
against the Harlan men of Cedar
Falls. 1t seems to be the tactics of
the Courier to misrepresent when 1t
thinks a point is to be made. It GER
tainly shows a death struggle for AL
lison, when his friends are found re-
sorting to such unfair means. We
hope the Courier is happy. When it
gets through charging will IL please

THE GAZETTE
CEDAR FALLS, NOV. 3, 1871.
A New Era In POlygamy.

Thomas Hawkins, the polygamist,
whom we announced last week as
convicted by the court by which he
was tried, has been sentenced by
Chief Justice McKean, to pay a
fine of $500, and be imprisoned at
hard labor for a term of three years.
The Judge in his sentence addressed
the prisoner as follows:
| am sorry for you, very sorry /;
you may not think so now, but |
shall try and make you think SO by
the mercy l shall show you. You
came from England to this country
with the wife Of your youth for
many years you were a Kind father
and a kind. husband, but at length,
however, the evil spirit of polygamy
tempted and possessed you, and then
happiness departed from your house,
hold. and now, by the complaint of
your faithful wife and the verdict of
a law-abiding jury, you stand at this
bar O convicted criminal. The law
gives me a large discretion in passing
sentence upon YOU. 1 might both
fine and imprison you, or / might
fine you only or imprison you. i
might imprison you 20 years and fine
you $1,000. I cannot imprison you
less than three years nor fine you
less than $500. II
/ must look to it that my judg-
ment give no aid and comfort to such
men; fmustlook to 1t that my judg.
ment be not so severe as to seem vim
'dicative, and not so light as to seem
TO trlfie with justice. This commu>
nifty ought to begin to learn that
God does not interfere TO rescue Grim
iDals from the consequence Of their
crimes, but on thu contrary he so
orders the affairs of His universe
that, soone or later, crime stands
face to face with justice, and just az
the matter.
The statute under which Hawkins
was convicted of adultery, was q
Mormon-made law. 1t was framed
by that people to punish adultery,
and was intended TO be framed in
such a way as to protect polygamy,
but the Gentle Judge aud jury have
assumed that o plurality of wives Is

an adulterous co-habitation, and
thereupon brought in a verdict of
guilty. What effect this verdict will
have upon the future course of the
Mormon leaders, is a question of
much interest. The Cincinnati Ga.
sette claims that a practice SO repug-
nant to the moral sense OF the Anglo
Saxon race, can not exist when It's
isolation by the wilderness has ceased
to be practical. P~olygamy has for
many years stood a disgrace to the
nation, and the Mormon leaders have
defied interference with their pecu.
liar religion. Let the law and justice
now assert themselves. t-r
