The Matrimonial Creed.

Whosoever will be married. before
all things 1t Is necessary that he hold
the conJugal faith and the coniugal faith
Is this: That there we're two rational be-
ings created, both equal, and yet one su-
perior to the other, and the inferior shall
bear rule over the superior, which faith,
except every one keep whole and unde-
filed, without doubt, he shall be scolded
| at everlastingly.
The man Is superior to the woman and
the woman Is Inferior to the man; vet
both are equal, and the woman shall gov
ern the man.
The woman is commanded to obey the
man, and the man ought to obey the
woman.
And yet there are not two obedients-
but one obedient.
For there is one dominion nominal OF
the husband, and another dominion real
of the wife,
And yet there are not two dominions.
but one dominion.
For, like as we are compelled by the
CHRISTIAN verify to acknowledge that
wives must submit themselves to their
husbands and be subject to them in all
things.
So are we forbidden by the coniugal
faith to say that they should be at all in
duenced by their wills or pay regard to
theirco mmands.
The man was not created for the wo-
man, but the woman for the man.
Yet the man shall be the slave OF the
woman and the woman the tyrant of the
man.
SO that in all things, as aforesaid, the
subsection of the superior to the inferior
is to be believed.
He, therefore, that will be married
must thus think of the woman and the
man.
furthermore, Is necessary 10 submits
slve matrlmony that he also believe
rightly the lnfallibillty of the wife,
For the right faith Is that we believe
and confess that the wife is fallble and
infallible.
Perfectly fallible and perfectly infalli-
BILE; of an erring soul and uuerrinp mind
subsisting; fallible, as touching her hu-
man nature; and infallible, as touching
her female sex.
Who, although she be fallible and in
falllble, yet she is not two, but one wo-
man; who submitted to lawful marriage
to acquire unlawful dominion, and prom
lsed religlousiy to obey, that she might
rule with uncontrolled sway.
This is the conjugal faith, which, ex-
cept man believe faithfully, he cannot
be married.
FoRTY-FoUR PER CENT. GoLD.-One of
our leading citizens suggested, yesterday,
that all ANONYMOUSLY the press of Ne
vada, and especially of Virginia City,
has been doing very much to depreciate
silver and bring about the decline on
bullion, and that this has been done BY |
not, IN each mention mode of bullion |
shipments, giving the proportion of gold |
and silver in the production. There |
may be some truth in the point made, |
from the fact that Nevada is called the |
Silver State, and the Comstock a silver |
lode. Still, the assertion has been again |
and again made by the Enterprise, that |
the bullion Of the Comstock carried from |
forty-three to fortyseven per cent, or
nearly one-half gold. The average of
the whole lode is within a very small |
traction OF forty-five per cent. This |
lapse on the part of the press has grown |
naturally out of the situation, for only |
two or three years since there was a |
premium on the silver over the |
gold. This was at one time |
the source of considerable rev.
enue to the mines. During the
fiscal year of 1873, the Chollar- Potosi
produced about $4,000, 900 in bullion,
and the books Of that company show a
revenue of $4,000 from the premium on
the excess OF silver over gold which this
bullion contained. Had the books of
other mining companies, which were at
that time bullion producing, been exam
ined, they would doubtless have shown a
like income from the same source. But
now that the discount on silver bullion
Is so great, we cannot but regard the sug-
gestlon of our friend as seasonable, and
shall endeavor hereafter to have heavy
shipments of bullion from the Comstock
accompanied by such statistics as shall
indicate to the world what we all very
well know, that at least nine-twentieths
of the production OF gold. When this
fact comes to be realized by the world
at large, and that the millions OF the
Comstock are not all silver, perhaps the
great fear of being overwhelmed by its
treasures may subside and her indus
tries appear after all worth cherishing.-
