cause when it is cessary for you y

have the cash, spend it at home.
9Th. Spend your money at home. 1t

He Got q Bite.

A short time since discovery
was made in Paris, France. sug-
gesting q tragedy more horrible in its
details than any of those imagined by
Edgar Poe. Il is we'll known that on
the banks of the Seine there are always
to be seen large number Of people,
for the most part vsgrants. who earn Il
livelihoo 4 by he oking the sickly sp ci
mems of half sutfocated fish that are
found at the point where the drains Of
Paris flow into the LIVER One 81 these
unfortunate anglers fishing at st. Oren
the other day felt ali unusual weight
encumbcring his line He took steps to
pull out Of the water what he expected
would prove a valuable find. when to
his sur prise, he discovered it to be the
trunk of young woman, the hands Of
of which were tightly tied together
with cord. The body presented marks
of having been cut open with q hatchet
iorr,fsd at the unwelcome sight. the
poor man ran for the commissary Of the
district, who Immediately telegraphed
for NJ. Jacobs, chief Of the police. The
latter had the river draggl I, with the
result Of finding the legs and other
parts Of the corpse. These. as WAS the
case Of the trunk, were found wrapped
in pet,coat of printed cotton. As
soon as they were collected q III iical
examination WAS made Of the remains.
and they proved to be those Of female
of about twenty. eight years Of age,
who evidently belonged to the working
class. From :heir appearance they could
not have been in the water above two
or three days Crowds have gone to the
morgus. where the murdered woman is
placed in view. No trace has yet been
discovered either of identity or Of the
perpetrator Of the crime

Of the last term for some reason took no ac-

THE SPIRIT OF THE SOUTHERN
press

We commend to our readers the thought
full periisal of the extracts from the South
ern newspapers which we republish in an
other column. These extracts were made
from the exchanges received in u single day,
and consequently afford fair indication OF
the current OF public sentiment in the
South. We do not find in them any trea-
sOnable expressions, or any spirit of hos
tility to the National Government. Indeed,
10 far us our observation extends, there has
been a steady improvement in the tone OF
the Southern press ever since Mr.. HAYES
took his seat If he perscveres in his noble
and wise policy there is every reason to be-
lieve that the close of his administration
will witness the complete restoration OF
peace and goodwill between the two sec
tions of the country.
The press Of the county can greatly aid in
this good work by moderation, and es-
pecially by avoiding captious spirit OF
fault finding with the political views en-
tainined in opposite sections of the coun'
try. II has been too much the practice
hitherto to seek for faults and mistakes
and then cxaggerate them for political
effect. The results of such policy have
been only evil, 1t has arrayed solid
North against solid South, with all the
evil consequences which the president fare
well address of WASHINGTON warned tn,
nation would be the result Of sectional
parties. 1t is time to end this sectionalism
What we now need is, not Mr.. BLAINE's
united North against united South, but {
united nation, going forward in harmony
and unity in course which will pr0mOt,
the common glory, happiness and prosperity
of every part of the Republic from Main,
to Texas and from Florida to Oregon.

THE SUPPRESSION or MORMONLSM

There are many indications that the Nor
mon question will soon assume greater i'm
portance than il has had since the days
when the outraged people Of Illinois drove
them forth from that State The Republican
platform twenty years ago denounced slavery
and pOlygnmy as twin relics of barbarism.
While the former has been swept away by
fire and the sword, the latter still remains
strongly cntrcnched IN the Salt Lake valley,
and * now Omnously threatening to defy
the national power. The crimes of which
Mormonism has been guilty during the last
quarter OF century are of themselves sufli-
| ricnt to Justify the Government in adopting
| the most stringent measures to intlict con-
dign punishment upon the perpetrators OF
those niquitics. Nor ought the Govern
nient to rest satisfied with Furnishing those
criminals, including BRIGHAM IOUNG, the
chief OF them. but il ought to adopt efficient
measures for entirely abolishmg that mon
strouN and iniquitOus system of sanctiiied
lust known iS Mormonism.
The completely of YOUNG in the murder
of the cmipTants at Mountain Meadows is
conclusively established 1t would bring
dishonor up0n the national name to permit
him to escape the punishment he so richly
deserves This subject is one which tn,
people feel very deeply about, and they
would rejoice to see the whole power of Tho
Government cXcrtcd to bring the criminals
TO Justice, and to sweep the barbarous insti
tuition of pOlNgamy out of existence. Th'
importance OF this subject being well under
stood by the Administration, and the pOpu
lar will having been so clearly and emphati
cully expressed in favor OF vigorous action
such decisive measures will inquest iOnahll
soon he adopted as will fully satisfy tn,
! public expectations.
! There is, of conrse, need Of great caution
| in dealing with this affair to 50 manage i
Us not to make martyrs out Of GOrSG OI
any of his apostles, As il involves u re-
ligous element, every thing like persecution
