The vegctatlve powers OF life are strong, but
In few years how OIten the pAllId hue, the lack
lustre eye aud emaciated form, and the impOssI
bllIty Of application to mental effort, show their
hancEnl influence. II soon becomes evident TO
the observer that some depressing influence is
checking the development Of the body. Con
sumption Is talked Of, and perhaps the youth is
removed from school and sent into the country.
This Is one of the worst movements. Removed
from ordinary diversions of the ever.changing
sccnes of the city, the powers OF the body, too
much enfeebled 10 give zest to hcalthful and
rural exercise, thoughts are turned inwArdly upon
themselves.

For ways that are dark
Aud trlcks thl' are vain
Our Reform Chincc Is peculiar.

Mr.. JOHN II. CRANE of Washington, in IA
pamphlet on the Washington Ring, says that
when the Tammany Ring were endeavoring to
Introduce the water meter job in this city they
got a bill through the Washington Council, at
great expense, adopting the meter there, which
vetoed by Mayor EMERY. But Tammany
wanted a certified copy Of the bill to use as a
precedent in New York, and the Secretary of
the Common Council at the time, so Mr.. CRANE
says, forged M..,or EMERY's name, and delivered
an attested copy to the lobby agent to carry to
TWEED. The cautious lobby agent, to ascertain
II all was right, took the bin to Mayor EMERY,
VINO at once pronounce ed II a forgery and la Mr.
CRANE's presence seized the forged copy. This
forgcr is the managing editor OF paper of in-
significant circulation, which President GRANT
generally uses as his personal organ and for
other disreputable purposes. The managing
editor is well adapted for such paper, and the
paper is well adapted for the purposes Of such
an Administration.

1t is Better to Keep Within the Laws.

II is possible that President GRANT one
Of these days may learn that his method
of disrcgarding laws when they interfere
with the execution of his designs is one
calculated to lead him into grave dinicul-
ties. The ENHANCEMENT which has re-
suited from his illegal course in the Nor
mon prosecutions affords an example of
the results which may be expected from
usurping powers not authorized by law.
The crusade against BRIGHAM YoUNG and
his disciples originated with the Rev. Mr..
NEwMAE of Washington, the spiritual ad-
wiser of the President, and Senator HAIR
Ian. But the Rev. MI. NEWMAN, although
he may be a safe guide TO the President in
religious matters, and an earnest election
ecring agent for the pious Iowa senator is
not an authority in legal questions. But
| between the clergyman and the President
| the warfare was determined ON, and Judge
MEX EAN was selected to conduct the OPP
eratious.
As it would have been impossible to Sc
cure IA conviction of the offending Nor
mons according to law, Judge MCKEAN
| concluded TO waive fOrmalties and try
| the accused parties in Il Federal court for
| offences against the Territorial statutes.
The United States Prosecuting Attorney
declined to take part in these illegal pro-
ccediugs and resigned; whercupon Judge
MoKEAN, without any authority of law,
appointed Il man named BAsKEN rs his sue
| ccs.or. This spurious official thoreupon
| began the proceedings, which Mr. BATES,
who was aftcrward legally appointed,
summarily stopped, rs he deemed the
whole thing unlawful. The matter was
then referred to Washington, and the SUI
premc Court sustained the views of Mr.,
BATES. So after all these illegal and ar
btrary proceedings, which have cost n
| great amount of money which the Govern
ment will ultimately have to pay, BRIGHAM
| YOUNG and his followers come out trium-
phant and more defiant than ever ns might
The sun., 1872-05-30
Progress in Cuba.

Recent Spanish kilograms, although
vague and contradictory us usual, show
that the final triumph of the much-endur-
ing Cuban patriots is not far off. Count
VALMAsEDA ofiiciously telegraphs from
Santiago to the volunteers of Havana that
the Edgar Stuart was nj Kingston, Jamaica,
dischargng her cargo of arms and ammu-
milton intended for the patriots. A few
days later she sails with her cargo for
Cuba. Then VALMAsEDA issues proclama-
tion to the effect that the Villas district is
pacifled. In the same week comes the in
telligence that the Cuban Gen. VILLAMIL
has invaded that district, which Is devoid
of Spanish regulars, at the head of six hum
dred armed and disciplined men. OF the
death and subsequent denial of the death
of such Cuban chiefs us lGNAcGo AGRA
MONTE, VICENTE GARCIA, and score of
others, II is needless to speak. They and
their prominent colleagues are killed and
resurrected frequently and regularly.
Yesterday came despatch that the most
cruel and most mercenary of all the Span
ish butchers in Cuba, Gen. GONZALEZ BoET,
had discovered a conspiracy among the
Cuban prisoners in his hands. The Span
iards do not make, and never have made
prisoners. But rs the despatch states that
the discovered conspiracy extended from
Cascorro and Guamaro to Sabanicu, Las
Tunas, Manzanillo and other places, ii is
evident that BoET is about to inaugurate
another general massacre of innocent and
wealthy persons, similar to those in Jgua-
hi and ManZanillo, for which he was tried,
and was acquitted solely because his attor-
ney, III case of his clients condemnation,
threatened to inculpate the highest au-
thority in the land.
That the patriots should be able to spare
detachments TO harass Spanish gunboats
when entering the ports of the coast, as in
the case of the Cauto at Banes, is salts
factory proof Of their growing relative
and positive strength. The Edgar Stuart
was probably discharging her cargo in the
harbor of Banes, when the Cauto so RASH
ly put in her appearance.
Meanwhile, in Havana the price of gold
is daily advancing and sterling exchange,
although the sugar crop is only half ship
ped, has risen about one per cent per day
for the past week, until it stands to-day at
the unprecedented quotation Of q to 2S
per cent.
From Spain the Spaniards in Cuba can
expect no further assistance. In fact the
slave traders of the island are grievously
responsible for the chaos which at present
rules in the Peninsula.
Poor Don HAMILTON FISH. Even he
must see at last that honesty would have
been his best policy.
