Children of the Same Mormon Fa-
ther Not Acquainted with Each
other.
There are many astonishing and few
admirable features about the religion of
our Latter Day neighbors; but, without
stopping to discuss them all. it answers
the purpose of this article to mention a
circumstance which came under cur no
tice few days ago. 1t is a sample Of
many such cases in Salt Lake City and
throughout the Territory. In CONVEX
sation had with liberal minded young
Mormon the writer ask him if SO and so
of the same name were his brothers?
Stopping moment as if to study puz-
zle the'gentleman then spoke Of several Of
| his brothers and sisters, rymarking at
sthe close that these were all he acquaint-
ed with. But are there more of your fam
lily whom you do not knowP we inquired;
whereupon the party proceeded to explain
that hls father, one OF the foremost OF
the priesthood, has many woman and al
SO great number OF children; that under
the polygamous system boys and girls Of
the same paternity grow up TO manhood
| without ever meeting each other. They
| are, therefore. not even ordinary friends.
but as much strangers to one another rs
| though born of different ..racees and in
different States. Surely theis phase Of

| though it may afford q solution to Brig
| ham Youngs doctrine that man may
| rightfully marry his own sister, as has
been done in Utah. Bringing children
up in ignorance OF their consanguinity
might help to carry out the idea.-Salt

NEW YORK Politics. 1t begins to
be understood among the New York
Democracy that Governor Tilden does
not mean to be figure-head but has
clear ideas OF the requirements of his
position. that he means to have a dis

to enforce 1t. In regard to the United
States Senator to succeed Mr.. Fenton,
It is said that Gov. Tilden and John

The Jersey City Presbytery yesterday
published its verdict in the case of Rev.
John 8. Glendenning. 1t acquits him of
the graver charges, but finds that he was
guilty Of "unministerial and unchristian
conduct in making Miss Pomeroy pres
ents, visiting her so frequently and at un-
seasonable hours, and living on such in
timate terms with her as to occasion pub

"the disturbing Influences incident to

Thus the New Orleans Custom House,

The second swindle is in the mum Der of

The Crusade.-Thel ladies continue their
meetings and their labors, and though the re-
suit may not have met their expectations, vet
they feel that they are doing e good work and
the success they have met with encourages TO
continuance. Several parties who have been
selling have expressed an intention not to re-
new their licenses, and others have expressed
an intention of getting ont of the business as
soon as practicable.
The nightly meetings are crowded, and are
marked by much enthusiasm and good feeling
Occasionally, however, q man animated bv
more zeal than discretion, or more spirit than
judgment, takes advantage Of their meetines
and talks in spirit Of vindictiveness which
does the cause they profess to have at heart
more harm than good. The presiding officer
should promptly call them to order, no matter
who they are OR where they are from. II this
work is to be carried forward in q spirit of love
and good will, intemperanee of speech will re-
tard it. To arraign saloon keepers as all that
is vile,-as worse than horse thieves and uur-
derers, as was done by speaker from Michi-
gan, the other night, in his mistaken zeal. is
not calculated to win them from the business
or induce a conviction that regard for them
has any part in the movement. And this. too.
after one of those very men had spoken. ad-
mitted the business was an evil one,and mani
tested desire to quit it. We are glad to note
that he was politely rebuked by one of the Ia
dies, who said they had found many of the sa-
loon keepers large-hearted, generous men, who
were convinced the business was bad one.
and would be glad to quit it if they could get
rid Of their stock without sacrifice. Thowing
cudgels at an individual in whose welfare YOU
profess to be interested, is not an excellent
way Of demonstrating your good feeling
Treat man as christian, if you would in-
spire him with respect for and a desire to ac-
quire christian character. But if you pro
pose to ego for" the saloon keeper by the aid
of the civil law, then prove him what you can,
aud when you prove him guilty punish to the
laws full extent. As the two methods do not
operate through the same channel, allow the
more potent one to prevail "a soft answer
turneth away wrath, but grievous words pro-
mote anger"

LlVER AND BLOOD DISEASES


4 healthy liver secretes each dav about two

TIE National Fire Underwriters
have adopted the following resolu.
tion. 1t Is similar to other resolu-
tions Of other bodies. "Resolved,
That the members of this Board, rep
resentiDg more than s75,OOO,OOO of
insurance capital of the country,
without respect to party, desire to ex-
press our satisfaction with the action
Of the President of the United States
in vetoing the Imitation Bill" the
so-called bill, which, in the opinion
of this Board, puts in peril not only
the welfare Of the capital we repre-
sent, but threatens ruin and disaster
TO the great commercial and indus
trial interest of the country at large"
When il Is considered that one of
the reasons given by the President
for vetoing the bill was that it would
operate more as q contraction than
an imitation" measure, the consist
ency of such resolutions is not so
apparent. These organizations pro
fess to favor contraction, and must
have had a different view Of the
matter from that taken by the Pres
ident.

Presidents veto message. 1t may b
sound doctrine, but We fail to per

effect Of the veto the Chicago In

The effect upon prices of the veto
Of the Senate currency bill was ;m
mediate. Stocks declined heavily
in New York on Thursday, and in
Chicago prices of grain and provis-
ions suffered q large depreciation.
The shrinksge of the stock in store
here in 8 single day was not less than
100000, and of course the loss On
the whole stock Of the West is enor-
nous. The money Of the Eastern
capitalists viii buy more corn, wheat,
cats, pork, and provisions to-day than
it would bay yesterday. A dollar
is worth more to-day than it was
yesterday, and by consequence every
commodity in the market is worth
less.

e. Hubbard & Co., Wholesale Dealers
in Leather, Fin dings, Hides, Pelts,
Oils &c, &c.


In our visitations TO wholesale or iobbing
firms in Toledo, We last week received an in
PRODUCTION to the above important frm, car
rying on business at 66 Summit street and l9
Water street. This business was originally
established some twenty years ago, and has
ever been characterized among the rural dis
tricts, for many counties around, as the head
quarters in its line for the support OF local
trade. The WnreTooms are four stC4ies high,
2ozl0 feet each, and in conjunction with them,
situate on the corner Of Erie and Lafayette
streets, is prosperous tsnnory disposing Of
from 5000 to 5000 hides per year. Mr. E
Hubbard, who appears to be the most active,
or at least, prominent member Of the firm, is
gentleman of considerable experience, con-
versant, and apparently 10 possession Of every
qualification calculated to enhance the inter
ssts Of the house. We were, by him, escorted
over the extensive premises, and were in no
modified degree surprised TO observe ita di-
versity aud magnitude. We observed very
large quantity Of French and German manu-
featured feathers, home-anished calf, kip and
harness feathers, and magnificent line Of
Buffalo strong or sole leather. All the skins
give unmistaksble evidence of having been
selected with exceptional care to secure smooth
and plump hides, and the splendid finish i'm
parted to the several grades Of material is
such as it would be impossible to find surpass-
ed. In reference to findings they have every
thing the trade can devise, and carry q stock
of unusual magnitude. They havo the best
kind of facilities for shipping with prompti-
tude, By water or rail, and the fact of their
business approaching 5000, 900 annually is am
pie evidence of their widespread connections.
chinclude northern Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,
Michigan, &c. To those throughout our dis
trict who may have business in their line, We
can give the assurance that the past reputa-
ton enjoyed by this firm for fair dealing,
advantage in market prices and quality Of
viii invariably be associated with
their future trade, and no pains will be spared
by them to eclipse in any way the ogertures
to the trade by Eastern houses, eT-
On though possessing ever so favorable oppor-
tunities for legitimate competition.

SPECIAL NOTICES.
It is Not Generally Known

Ihat the shortest possible route between the East
and Great West is through St. Louis, over the st
Louis, Kansas City and Northern Short Line.
This road has gained surprising importance by
reason Of immense expenditures in the last two
years, Of over two million dollars, besides earnings,
in Improvements Of roadway, in relaying their
line with best quality of new steel and iron rails,
on broad new ties, and by substituting for ordinary
cars, new reclining chair coaches elegantly carpeted
and fitted, with dressing rooms with toilet conyen-
fences for ladies' gentlemen and families travelling
with children, tgt0Ht any extra charge. This line
runs six fast Express trains between the Missis-
sippi and the Missouri Rivers, two more than any
other road, and connects with all the great Land
Grant Roads in the West, and has adopted all mod
ern appliances for comfort, speed and safeguards
against accidents, including night and day watch
men, who inspect the road before and after the
passage of each train to see that everything is in
order. We recommend those contemplating trip
