MOODY i sANkEY.

The crowds that go to hear Moody
and sankey at the Hippoaromc are
wonderful. There seems to be a good
many christians left in the city yet,
for the vast audiences ara still main
ly composed Of them.
The idea of the Evangelists is to
work for revival among the
Churches first, so that their numbers
will be prepared to help in the work
of reaching sinners. Those who
scott are those who STAY away, for it
is impossible to put ones self under
the influence OF the meetings and not
be affected. The quiet in which the
multi:udes drift into their seats. the
silence of prayer, the singing of thou
sands, hushed and full of feeling, felt
rather than heard, sometimes stir the
most unimpressible. Whether they
will accomplish any permanent good
is questionable-that they succeed in
producing an intense feeling for the
time there can be no doubt. Their
audiences increase in number every
meeting, and it could be KEEP. up for
ever. PIETRo.

It's leading Democratic paper

and the Democratic party as at
present represented in Congress is
the subject under consideration, and
this is the way it talks:
"They forget nothing. They learn
nothing. They talk and talk, while
the other party HES off with the
swag. Thus far, in spite of an over
whc!m;ng majority, they have allow
ed themselves to be beaten, over

has from successive Legislatures OF
tanned extensions of the time and
continuance of the contract. The
are before the present Legislature
asking for still further time. Blu
3O0,0 900 acres Of Iowa land is too
good thing to lie long in suOl
shape. A company has been organ
lied in Dubuque, known as the Iowa
Dakota & Black Hills Company
which proposes to coatract for tn
immediate completion Of the road Al
contemplated. They ask now that
the State resume the land, and give
it 10 them on the same condition il
was heretofore given to the McGreg-
or & Sioux City Road. The question
is, who shall have the 100000 acres
of land. As matter of course .
large number of persons have per-
sonal interest in this question, and
consequently = large lobby is in at
tendance. Probably fifty persons
have taken up their quarters here for
the winter who make it their business,
daily and hourly, in season and out
of season, to work for the cause of
the respective companies IS their
personal interests respectively die
tate. As the original purpose of the
United States in granting the land,
was that it should be used for rail-
road purposes, it can be used for
nothing else. The question therefore
is not whether the State will give it
to some railroad, but what company
will have the good fortune to secure
it.
The railroad tariff question is now
fairly before the Legislature. The
railroad committee have made two
one, the majority, reporting
in favor of the present law with few
amendments. The minor
ity report advocates the repeal Of the
whole law. Many petitions are being
daily received from all parts Of the
State relating to this subject. A
bill has been introduced in the Senate
substituting what is known as the
Minnesota law for the one now in
force. The matter does not yet be-
gin to assume shape, but every one
is advocating his own views in re-
gard to it. 1t is certainly an impor-
tant question and one which is sure
10 receive its full share Of attention
before adjournment.
Since it is conceded that the War
den of the additional penitentiary at
Anamosa will be elected by the Leg
stature, and not appointed as hereto
fore, the candidates have arrived and
the button holing is going on. 1t
appears that there are yet left parrots
ready to sacrifice themselves
IN order that the people may be ably
and diligently served.

THE GREAT FIRE,

Broadway, Tuesday night, show that
New York is as shammily built as

no wind, the fire department, the
best in the world, was promptly at
work, and the fire, when discovered,
had made but little Roadway, but yet
before it could be subdued, a whole
block was consumed.
The death of young Beers, Of the

A Pure Man and Without
RaprNach.

The attitude of Gov. Hayes, from
the day of his nomination, has com
mended him most warmly to the re.
spect and confidence of the whole
country. There has been a manly
simplicity in his bearing, and in the
words spoken by him when he was
apparently defeated-such manly
good sense, that, should it happily
prove that he is elected, his total
freedom from the arts and uncom-
mon anxiety of an old party politi
eian will be refreshing and eneoura-
ging to his fellow citizens. On the
other hand, should the gentleman
who has managed his own canvass
proved to have managed it success
fully, Gov. Hayes will pass from the
peculiar prominence which he has
teld since his nomination with the
sincere and grateful regard of the
great party and of the hosts of rep
sSa5entstive Americans who have so
earnestly supported him. He has
been a true representative OF the
old cause pure, honest, sagacious,
self respecting and self-restrained a
true type of the best American citi-
zen-an American gentleman with
out fear and without reproach.-

IoIH TIdlIOIsCU OHIUIIICIe
Women Voting in Utah.

The wife of ex-Secretary Black,
Mrs. Maxwell, Mrs. Ashman, Mrs.
Lloyd, Miss Genevieve HartweI,
and several other Gentle ladies took
an active part in their respective
precincts, and electioneered with the
polygamous wives of the saints.
They would argue the point in this
way: "Why, Mrs. -, I'm aston
ished! How can you for moment
think of voting for Cannon? He
has four wives, and, being a woman,
YOU know he cannot love them all as
he ought to. He is brute! Take
this ticket and vote for Baskin, q man
who does not believe in degrading
woman" The Gentle ladies turned
out in full force, voted like men, and
did all their talking afterwards. The
votes of several Mormon women
were challenged by Gentle men,
who did SO with extreme courtesy
and timidity. The women are per
fectly shocked, and seemed afraid of
swearing to their voting qualifica-
tions. Two of the wives of Bishop
Woolley were challenged, but they
swore stoutly enough to get their
votes in.

We have already indicated, in plain
words, the man fer the crisis-a man
of iron nerve, of determined will, OF
parliamentary knowledge--a man
who viii do his duty bravely and
unshrinkingIy, without fear of per.
sonal consequences or federal bayo-
nets. 1t has now become necessary
for The people to assert their imper-
led rights in a manner that cannot
be misunderstood, and the next Spea-
ker of the House will have an i'm
portant part to play in this great and
tremendous crisis. The time has
gone by for honeyed words and
temporizing deeds. The people are
terribly in earnest, and are firmly
resolved that there shall be no com
promise with corrupt conspirators-
no paltering, in any sense, with ma
lignant traitors.
The Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution, an
outspoken Confederate organ, is dis
gusted with the rawlings and rantings
of such Northern copperhead sheets.
1t says:
Whenever and wherever the slogan
of war is raised, let the emphatic
response of the entire South be,
Get thee behind me, Satan" Oar
people have already resorted to this
sort of ''arbitrament," and were so
terribly in earnest that they never
succumbed until nearly every family
mourned the loss Of o gallant son,
brother or father; a debt of two
billions of dollars had been repudia-
ted four millions slaves emanci-
pated; towns and cities laid waste,
and gaunt famine and want stared
every one in the face. We state de
liberately that the assertion that the
South is prepared by force of arms
to sedt Mr.. Tilden, or engage in an
other attempt at revolution, is Who'll
ly and absolutely false. The very
men most opposed to such folly are
the battle SCARED heroes of the lost
cause. They have felt the shock of
battle and realized the miseries of
war, and therefore shrink aghast at
a renewal of the dreadful spectacle.
No. Having taken anew the oath of
allegiance and plighted our faith to
conserve the public peace, we do not
intend to be seduced into rebellion
upon any National issue.
