cheeks and ruddy lips are blanch-

pulse that bounded with repletion,
carrying vigor to the whole sys-

vivacity, health and strength, is
delicate to the touch. The feeble
heart cannot propel the thin scan

her while yet in her teens? Com
panions and friends gather around
with words cheer and consolation
and depart with .moistened eyes

Brigham Young denounces
those saints who do not pay
their tithes as "poor, miserable
cusses not fit for any society,"" He
is equally;plain in tellin them that
implicit obedience is expected on
their part, saying: "We want to
crontrol your time and labor so
that we may be able to redeem Zion
when the time shall come" His
weapons are decidedly carnal, for
he asserts, "Give me money
enough and I can buy all the
United States. i can buy all the
preachers in the United States.
Give them their bread and butter
and they will preach any doctrine.
He admits, however, that there
may be- few honorable exceptions
but on the whole concludes that if
the saints want to possess the land
they can do so by pouring their
tithes into TIE treasury. Brigham
is,73 years ofage, but he gives no
signs Of liking money or power
less than when in his prime On
Gazette.

AMENDED BANKRUPTCY PRACTICE.

In the case of Jacob Hynes, an alleged bank
rupt, which reported in THE TRIBUNE few weeks
ago. creditors who set forth their aggregate debts

bankruptcy. The petition also alleged that those credi
tors constituted than onefourth in number and
one.thrd In amount. Hynes then filed written state
ment verified by OATH declaring that the creditors did
not constitute onefourth in number and one
third in amount, and Judge Batchford OF the
United States District Court ruled that that
statement raised issue which must be settled before
the question Of the alleged bankruptcy OF Hynes could
be gone into. Section of the act OF June 22 1874 In
amendment OF section 80 of the act OF March O. 1864,
does require that such statement should be veri
fed by the oath OF the alleged debtor and the question
arose whether the absence OF such requirement the
Court could compel the DEBTOR 10 deny, by "a written
statement signed by him under oath, the allegations in
Judge Blatchiord held at the time, and as
matter OF common sense" that the Court could
force the debtor to do The Judge gave
Yesterday written decision upon that point, in which
he adheres his former and verbal decision and
absence OF any rule or form prescribed by the
Supreme Court indicating either that there Is to be

decided that the debtors list setting forth the number OF
