eral days past that his papcrsncluding your vaIu-
able shoct-aro missing, hut ''aro aboard Of train
have no time to look them up" and, consequently,
the boy is made TO suffer the loss and the HERALD
readers obliged to ride often hall hour before tho
agent on the train puts in an appearance, and
then to be still further annoyed by being told that tho
agent "cant spare any HERALps." Now, Mr. Editor,
| am unable to state whether IL Is by design
lessncss that the package Tor Westheld Is often
among the missing, but from certain rumors In CIR
cuation that the train agents feel not altogether
friendly to the local news agents, the annoyed con-
muters, railroad officials and all parties concerned
may draw their own conclusions. Hoping that the
facts OF this bit OF annoyance beng brought to the at
tention OF tho public may produce speedy remedy,

[From Tho Providence Journal

The government Of the United States, through tho
courts endeavorpg to bring to justice the Mormons
implicated in the massacre of twenty years ago, for
participation IN which Bishop Ice has recently been
judcially shot, Morally speaking, there is not tho
slightest doubt that Brigham Young was an accessory
before the iact that there were Survivors who
were active in the massacre, who are known and
against whom might DO brought up loyal proof.
Young is aboring stavc on proceedings in the hope
that Congress will interfere In his behalf or At any
rate refuse grant Appropriation to aid the prose
cuton. Whatever may be thought OF any aggressive
dealings with tho Mormons Mormons by the federal
government, thore cannot be two opinions about the
duty to punish those who were concerned in the ter
rbc murdors OF the emigrants All that can be done
in this direction have doubt will be done by
Congress, and before its meeting tho nttmaton that
Young by the expenditure Of money In lobbying, can
eTectuaily dsarm justice, IS one which We shall not

actual facts.
THE WILL OF THE LORD AND TIE WILL OF
THE UNITED STATES
(From tho Sacramento Union.)
The evidences OF u Mormon uprising arc accumulat-
ing. Brigham Young hns been aud will continue to
be held responsible for all the bloodshed In tho Terri
tory and hierarchy would at this day survive
another Mountain Meadows massacre. OF all persons,
II would seem he is the Interested in preventing
violence. Tho latest phase Of the situation, as re-
ported from Salt Lake. Is to the effect that Brigham
intends to gather COO Indians IN Thistle Valley. ITO
do the will Of the Lord" 10 this end Mormon SET
tiers in valley have been notified to Leave which
would seem 20 indicate that they not willing the
Indians should do tho will OF the Lord upon them
This may afford a cew 10 what Brigham means by the
twill OF the Lord but II is already understood that
in this modern judea, as IN tho ancient, the worst
atrocities-those OF which devils should have been
nshamed-are ascrbcd 10 tho Lord 1t is not clear,
however, where Brigham is to gather his IL. 600 In
dams FROM and II Is still less clear how they can 10
tho Will of the Lord on any extended scale in de-
populated valley Tor 1t is evident that the advent OF
the Indians and tho hcgira of the Mormons will be
sufficient warning to tho Gentiles Some things, how
ever, very Gear. Among them may be noted tho
fact that II 10 any other number Of Indians are
gathered in any valley Of Utah, and make any hostile
demonstrations, the United States troops Will do the
will OF the government upon them summary.
4 SERIOUS PRoBLEM--How CAN IT BE SOLVED?
From tho Atlanta constitutional
What is the why out of tho entanglemcntY We can
refuse admit Utah State. But such arbitrary
measure would not solve the problem. We could d.
vide Territory the adjoining States and Ter
ritorics-Nevada taking slice, Colorado another and
the Territories OF Idaho Montana and Arizona absorb
ing the balance This Is perhaps feasible solution. 1t
would, however, provoke war; either a iheoutset or
when the States and Territories undertook to stamp
out the Institution within their respective borders.
Another remedy Is time II is still believed that tho COM
pleton or tho Pacific road will enable the people Of
Utah to work reformation from within. This plan
would be constitutional and bloodoss, but would II be
eTectual? Will the Gontes increase faster than tho
Mormons? Will the power Of the one gain on that OF
the other? Doubtful The truth Is, VIC have serious
question our handsome that is pressing to the
iront-one that possibly embraces religious war Of
no small dimensions. And tho government will be
compelled to exercise q considerable degree Of vgi-
lance until this question: which has beenin allegiance
twenty-five years. Is finally stricken from tho cal
endar.

place of blind credulity. Mather ga Y the

Those who will take the trouble to closely

colored witnesses, and the malignant
prompter is always at hand to coach them
jost as Paris and Mather coached their
witnesses in the days when sensible men
yielded themselves to the delusion of witch
craft. Tbs depty governor and the five
magistrate of Massachusetts were not weak
minded fools. They were is capable as the
commissioners sent down by President
Grant to inquire into the Louisiana cleo
ton. But like the com missioners they were
eager to make out CAGE, so they greedily
swallowed everything presented to them
by those who, like Cotton Mather and Par
ris, specially charged themselves with
working up the evidence, and they have
in the same way asked their fellow citizens
to believe as they do.
The vagaries of the inflaned Imagination
of the negro, and the stupidity repeated
falsehoods which are put into his mouth by
designing persons of more intelligence, do
well enough just now to partially heal the
hurt to conscience which acquiescence in
the Louisiana fraud produces, but when they
have played their part in this travesty on

which record them will be valuable only as
proof of the recurrence of another epidemic |
