Following is the conclusion Of Trum
bulls speech, delivered at the meeting
OF the Liberal Republicans, on Friday
evening last, at Cooper's Institute, New
York city:
Trumbull referred in strong terms TO
the New York Custom house frauds,
the Robeson Investigation, the Hurl-
burd case and other alleged corrup-
lions, and went on to say there should
be IA reform in u e system by
which taxation shall be reduced and so
arranged as To bear equally. as far as
possible on all branches OF industry,
without increasing taxation OF II
branch for the benefit of another, and
the pu~rIflcatIon of the civil service and
the administration of the Government,
by which Plunderers shall be driven
from power and position and the Ad-
m~lnstration placed in the hands of
honest men. l had hoped all these re-
forms could be accomplished through
the lnStrufnentaiity of those now in
control ofthe Government but expert
'ence hi the past session in Congress
and the present session satisfies me
that these reforms cannot be accom-
pil>hed through the agency of the rui-
ing spirits POW controlling them. The
remedy must csn,e from the people.
You cannot obtain it through the poll
tlcianS. There is a feeling, | am glad
To believe, in the country that will
arouse its honest sentiment and lea
10 the correction of these abuses. He
then referred to the Cincinnati Conven-
tom, fully indorsing it and predicting
the success of tle mnVonent
He was followed by Schurz IN an
elaborate speech, and the meeting dis
persed, after a few remarks by Greeley.

THE MORMON SITUATION.

The Mormon problem must be solved
soon. 1t was declared by Sir Oracle,
that the institution would fade away
like snow before the midday sun after
road was laid. Just three years have
elapsed since that clasping Of hands at
~Pronontory Point on the butting OF
the two locomotives, one from the At
lantic and the other from the Pacific
side of the continent. And yet the
Mormon imbroglio continues. 1t
would have been ended long ago., had
not the Administration been cursed
with a set of as incompetent officials as
Fitch, whom even his Radical friends
in this State rejected, has gone on TO
Washington, to six up things as he
vauntingly proclaimed prior to his
departure from great Salt Lake City.
As the slang phrase goes, he is I'm ca
boots with the polyGamists. And
virtually lie and his minions are at
war to-day with the United States
Government. For be it known that
make their offspring in early child
hood swear eternal fealty 10 the Nor
mon faith, and deadly hostility to the
Government of the United States. The
MornOns are knocking at the doors of
Congress for admission, because they
know, that as a State, they will have
guaranteed rights and privileges now
debarred TO them. They will make
Brigham Governor. They will have
their own juries, and control their
mines. They will have not only a
voice, but a~vote in Congress. They
wdl rule the Gentle with rod of iron.
No anti Mormon will live in Utah in
safety, if they come into the Union
under the Constitution which they
themselves have framed. The Utah
t. the Committee on Territories, has
been printed. 1t declares hat such
terms, if any, as may be prescribed by
Congress as a condition for the admis
sion of the State of Deseret into the
Union, shall be subject to ratification
by a majority of the people. This
Constitution guarantees free exercise
and enjoyment of religious profession
and worship, but liberty of conscience
secured is not to be so construed as to
excuse acts of RIGHTEOUSNESS or other
crime, or justify practices not consist
ent with The peace or safety of the
State. Meanwhile the Mnrmons in
Utah are jubilant over the prospect OF
their immediate admission into the
Union, although in our humble opin-
ion, they haven't the slightest show
just now.

cess and prosperity OF this school are very
favorable. Pref Bavsmann, the principal
has leased the Chamberlain property, cor.
ner oil Illinois and Beaver Streets, and also
the old Presbyterian Church adjoining
The latter is now being fitted up as 3 school
hall. Tho well known and accomplished
teachers, Professors Clsrcx and WingAie,
and the Misses Robinson, will be retained
in their respective departments. Prof
HAvemann has also secured the services OF
Miss NJ. ]. Hagen, q graduate Of Willard s
Seminary, Troy, N. y, who has had large
experience as . teacher of higher mathe-
mAtios, composition, Latin, etc. The ser
vices Of Professors in vocalizatlon and gym
nAstics will be procured at once. The fall
term opens Sept. 18th, and it is hoped and
expected will be largely attended.
There can be no doubt As to the utility
and efficiency of this school which has
sprung up in our midst. Here the pupil
can obtain thorough classical and prAcli-
Gal education q, comparatively small cost.
We trust that the people will see to it that
this truly lAudAble enterprise is not allowed
to lAnguiih for want of patronage, bus will
extend their hearty aid and encouragement
to it from the start.

County Fair is likely to prove failure. Al
late hour yesterday afternoon FIVE COWS
and small number of other stock entries
had been made. The art hall, agricultural

were rather spare, though they may fill up,
The managers will be likely to find that
they have made big blunder in raising the
price Of admission from Is to so cents. The
people in the country do not take to the
change kindly and the present indications are
decidedly unfavOrNbls to the success of the

Is peouliasly adapted to every disease of the
lungs and liver which is produced by our ever
varying climate.
There is, perhaps, no disease with which our
country 10 affecte d, which sweeps of annually
SO many victims as that fell destroyer of the
human race Consumption. Day after day
year after year, the insatists monster hnrries
to the cold and silent portals of the tomb fresh
added victims to its conquest. No walk of life
is sacred from it's blighting influence. No age
is exempt from its death dealing shafts. The
| old, the middle aged, and the young, all alike,
are food for this common enemy of mankind
The white haired patriarch whose life of tenn
perancs has rendered his system impervious tc
the attacks of other ills, and whose good deeds
prepared him for the enjoyment Of life's calm
evening, finds consumption faItening its fangi
upon his vitals, aud tearing him from world
ever bright to minds which look cOmplacentiy
on days we'll spent.
Consumption, in Its confirmed and incipisn
stages, coughs, asthma, Group, and liver com
plant, form by far the most fatal class Of df
eases known to our land. Yet even those ma.
be cured by means of the simple YET pewerfu
re edies that are scattered wherever these NAL
aides prevail.
