CONCLUDED AT LAsT.-The Commit
tee of Plymouth Church have concluded
their labors at last and We are glad OF it.
Their report exo1erates Mr.. Beecher and
we are glad Of that, also. We have re-
Trained, so far as possible, from an ex-
preston Of opinion upon the merits of
this case while the evidence was being
presented to the committee, for the judg-
ment based upon the &c parte testimony
of to-day might be reversed by the evil
dence Of tomorrow. With many jour
mails the case was prejudged from the be-
ginning. Forgetful Of the legal maxim
by which the accused is held innocent un-
til proven guilty, they have assumed the
accusation to be true and given judg-
ment accordingly. The opportunity by
which a man of Mr.. Beecher's eloquence
and erudition and high standing in the
Christian Church could be pulled down
below the common level Of humanity,
was too good to be lost. Even now, it is
not to be expected that these cavilers will
be satisfied. Their judgment has been
given, and no evidence could be adduced
to cause reversal. But the people are
the judges here as we'll as the committee.
All the testimony and proceedings have
been spread before them through the COL
nmns Of the daily press, and though a
few may carp and sneer, and call the
verdict Of the committee whitewash-
ing affair."" the general Judgment will
pronounce it just.

"STIRPICULTURE" was new word to
us. We saw where a Mormon Bishop
felicitated the church upon the success of
the disciples in the practice of this sci
ence; so we went to Webster's Una
bridged to find out what it meant. We
returned no wiser than we went. But as
the good Bishop declared that the pur-
suit Of stirpiculture" had increased the
population Of Utah by an addition of ten
thousand infants during the past year, we
guessed his meaning. The science has
attained some perfection in this county,
as will be seen by looking under the
proper head.

"THE ALDINE. Every issue of the
Atdine is surprise to all who see it, since
it shows positive growth in art, beauty
and literature from month to month, as
gratifying as it is wonderful. In this
connection it is proper to state that the
rumor which has obtained some credence
that the Atdtne was in embarrassed cir
cumstances, had no foundation whatever.
AS commercial undertaking it has been
from the start remarkable success, and
to-day this, the recognized art journal of
America, is more prosperous than ever
before.

TEMPERANCE people will find matter of
interest in the letters Mayor Medill of
Chicago is now writing from Europe.
Among other things, he says, there are
two hundred millions of people in Eu-
rope outside Of Russia and Great Britain,
who drink nothing stronger than wine
or beer, and in all this vast population
there is less drunkenness than in the city
of Chicago, which contains less than one
fve-hundredths of this population. -
He thinks the tax on ardent spirits should
be greatly increased and that upon wines
and malt liquors diminished. In this
country the Temperance people include
wine, beer, and even cider in the list of
prohibited beverages, and in so doing it
becomes question if the cause of tenn
perance is not more injured than bene-
fted.

THE Mormon ideas Of matrimony are
very convenient. For instance, there is
Brigham, now sued for divorce by Mrs.
Ann Eliza Brigham, No. II. He sets up
in answer he had wife living, and No.
II had husband living at the time the
" spiritual" ceremony was performed be-
tween No. II and himself; therefore,
they are not and could not be legally
married. Ann Eliza claims, however, to
have been divorced from her first hus-
band at the time, and if she fails in this
suit will probably go after the Prophet
for bigamy.

ENFORCING THE LAW,

For moro than four years we have had
law upon the pages Of our statu.e-books
designed, at the time of its passage, TO
check the importation hither of Chinese
females. 1t was passed in the assured
knowledge of the fact that few, if any, of
the Chinese women brought to this coun-
try are the wives of Cinnamon living
here, or designed as such that fully
nineteen-twentieths of these females who
are brought to our shores are young girls,
purchased in China and imported here,
possessed of n full knowledge of the life
they are expected to lead This law has
thus far been a dead letter, and the at
tempt now being made to enforce it with
reference to batch of twenty-five girls
brought over in the steamer Japan, on
her last voyage, will be watched with deep
interest. The trial before Judge Morri
son resulted in the women being remand
ed back to the steamer, and their landing
forbidden. The Supreme Court was at
once appealed TO, the women being
brought before that body upon writ of
habedS corpus, and upon the decision of
that tribunal will the value of the law
depend.
1t would seem that any people should
have the right to prevent the incoming Of
a class whose presence is not desirable,
by reason Of its being destructive to the
public morals. The law could not be
made to absolutely prohibit the immigra-
ton Of Chinese, either male or female,
and it remains to be seen in how far it
will be effective to regulate that immi-
grafton. Ii the law stands the test and
is not declared unconstitutional, then the
great difficulty will be to prove the char
acter and purpose Of this class of women.
Placed upon the witness stand they have
no hesitation in swearing to anything
their owners have told them to before GO
ing into court. In the present case each
woman swore she had husband here
whom she had come to join, but by some
oversight none of these husbands were
present and recognizable. Every man
in the court room knew these women were
swearing falsely, but how could the fact
be made apparent to the court ? Chinese
testimony is proverbially worthless, es-
pecially in all cases where their self-in-
terest clashes with the public good. The
women do not seem to know, or care,
that it is in their power to escape the ig-
nominious life before them, or, if they
do SO great is their dread of the power
which controls this branch Of Chinese
" commerce." that they do not dare to
avail themselves of the chance. The
standard Of Chinese morality is, however,
at very low Egure.
1t is to be hoped that the power which
the law vests in the Commissioner of I'm
migration will be sustained by the court
Of last resort. If it be, it will be a great
step toward getting rid of the system of
Chinese slavery by which this State is
cursed. We have abolished our own
system Of slavery at fearful cost, and it
is high time we took effective steps to put
a stop to abuses of the same nature among
any other people seeking our shores.

A voLuSTARY CoNFEssIoN.--Eot-
withstanding a man named Charles Le-
Wy voutariy surrenders himself to the
Sheriff of Bloomington, Illinois, and con-
fessed that he was the murderer Of the
old man Nathan, in New York city, few
persons believed him. For two years
the detectives have exerted all their in
genuity to trace the murderers, and now,
when the fact of Levy's confession and
detention is telegraphed to them, they
decline to go to Bloomington for him,
returning as reply that " if he is the
man of veracity he pretends to be, he
will pay his own expenses to New York :"
This would seem to imply that the New
York Police Department puts no faith
in the credibility Of Levys confession.
the detectives have theory of their own,
which they have been trying to work
out, but with poor success, and the vol
untary surrender and confession to this
crime by man who had not even been
suspected, is something of reflection
upon their official sagacity. And yet he
narrates the particulars relating to the
murder with circumstantiality Of de-
tail that renders it at least possible that
he is guilty. He eliminates a second par
ty; but processes not to know the mans
name. 1t was this confederate that in
duced him to commit the crime, and af-
terward robbed the Nathan safe, divid-
ing the spoil with Levy, whose share
amounted to $500. The prisoner ex-
plains his motive in making this confess
sion to be the agony of mind he has en-
dured arising from the consciousness of
his guilt-an agony that was impossible
for him longer to endure. These are the
alleged facts of this strange case, as we
gather them from the Eastern press. No
account that we have yet seen makes
any intimation that Levy is insane. He
tells his story in ght-forward, ra-
tional manner, and the officers of the
law will, of course, be compelled to take
some action to establish its truth or falls
ity.-Sdn francisco Call.

UPON a ranch in Nevada, on the Car
son river, there is herd of twenty-six
camels, all but two of which were bred
and raised in Nevada. Some years ago
nine or ten were imported into that State,
but of these only two lived to become ac-
climated, and from this pair have been
raised the twenty-four. They are used
in packing salt to the mills on the river
from the marshes lying in the desert,
some sixty miles eastward.
