AFTER THE MURMoNs.-Presiden Gran
seems to be really III earnest III regard to Uta
affairs. Aftera Cabinet consultation recent,
he went to the Capitol and requested an inter
view with the Judiciary Committees OF bot
Houses. On assembling, it is said, he states
what he wanted, and that u majority Of bot
committees agreed to carry out his views b.
reporting bill for that purpose. The MERIT
bill was shortly afterwards introduced, and Il
said to embody Mr.. Grants views as to th'
proper method OF dealing with Mormonlsm, Il
Utah. It looks TO us as something new for Z
President to argue his views before Congress
,onal committees, in regard to legislation pro.
posed. 1t may be all right, but it partahes
somewhat OF the lobbying character business
in which the President. least Of ali others,
should ever engage. II the Mormons violate
the laws of Congress, let the courts visit upon
them the consequences; and it the laws are de-
fective in not providing adequately for bringing
criminals to justice, then Congress should
amend them promptly, without being urged and
entreated to do SO by the President in person.
As to the merits OF the Utah controversy, We
are not fully advised Like all questions, there
are doubtless two sides to it. and il would prob
ably be well enough to appoint Commission
to visi: that section and make a thorough aud
exhaustive examination into the condition oi
affairs in Utah, together with the causes lead
ing thereto, and report the facts and evidence
TO Congress, whereup0n proper legislation rem
edyng the evils complained of, could be adsls
eddy enacted by that body. Much evil may
flow from hasty legislation, based upon e parts
statements. telegraphic rumors, and sensation
articles from hired correspondents OF the press.
The true facts should be known before the
scapelis applied We don't see any particular I
urgency in the case The affairs of Utah are
no more complicated, nor have they assumed 3
mole serious aspect than has been the cond
ton of affairs there fer ten or fifteen wears past
The anxiety to suppress polygamy, immediate
ly, Seems to outweigh all other considerations
The knowledge that it is . crime against civil
lzatlon, seems 10 haze just come home 10 some
people, aud they can't brook moments delay
in Graduating the foul blot We believe in ,
doing away with poly -amy, and that at the
earliest possible period; but there is a right :
way and wrong way of doing almos, anythiug.
and We think there is both policy and wisdom

UTAH IN CoNGEEss.-The dispatches stat.
that it is doubtful whether the legislation de.
sired by President Grant, for Utah, can be had
at the present session Of Congress-that Nor.
mon money from Brigham Young's tthinp
fund will purchase influence enough to pre-.
vent Congressional action. We have do Doubt
but that if Brigham will "yield up literally
