"DIDsT ever feel, my love" "said he
The twain meath starbeams strolling-
"a thrill no tongue can e'er express,
And yet It's vain controlling,
A something that o'erwhelms the soul
And quite o'ercomes the senses,
A ceaseless throb that through each vein
Its influences dispenses?
Can'st tell what it is, my own?
Then fondly looked he at her;
"In course you goose" she tartly said
"Its corns that's what's the matter"

The Cleveland Herald stated that
there are only twenty-nine United States SOL
diers in Georgia. Whereupon the Atlanta
Constitution in q retort courteous, informs ii
that there are nearly that number in one reg-
mental brass band alone which il now in op-
ration in that State. But what have brass
bands to do with it? 1t is not a question of
brass bands at the polls, is it? We thought it
was bayonets. If you will clearly convince US
that it is a part of the Radical plot to intimi-
date lawful voters by stationing brass bands at
the polls we will take back every word we
have said and join the Confederacy.

strangers in the village, she threw the
account books on the floor in the office,
tore-ap some papers, scratched her face

to the alarm she said that two men had
overpowered her and'taken the money.
The strangers were arrested, and she
pretended to identity them as the rob-
bers; but her story did not bear close
scrutiny, and at last she confessed.

says she has had no domestic peace for,

Sprague has also told his story, which,
however, does not differ from the ac-
counts already published namely, that
his wife and Conkling are, and have
been, too. intimate; that Conkling, not
content with destroying his peace of
mind in Washington, came. to Rhode
Island on the same errand; that he
(Sprague) was driven to madness and
ordered him out, threatening to shoot
him if he refused. Sprague also told
Conkling to go armed hereafter, be,

he would shoot him on sight.

The Administration is devoting con-
siderable attention to the Mormon ques-
ton at present. A law passed by Con.
gress in 1862, to prohibit polygamy in
the Territories of the United States,
has remained a dead letter on the
statute books until few months ago,
when Reynolds was tried under its pro-
visions and convicted. The case was
appealed to the Supreme Court upon.
the ground that the Act under which
Reynolds was convicted was unconsti-
tutional That court affirmed the de-
cision of the lower court, and declared
the Act of 1862 constitutional. 1t was
then supposed that the Federal authori-
ties in Utah would be instructed by the
Administration to enforce. the law.
Many believed that polygamous Nor
mons, who are living in open violation
of the law, would be arrested and
prosecuted, hut. their surmises were in
correct. The Mormons have been per-
mitted to carry cut the peculiar tenets,
of their doctrine as heretofore, and
polygamous marriages have beenas fire.
quent as ever at the Endowment House
in Salt Lake City. All that the Adj
minstration. has done to suppress
pclygamy since the highest judicial au-
thority in the land pronounced the
anti -polygamy law constitutional, has
been to send circular letters to foreign
governments requesting them to pre-
vent the emigration of Mormon con-
verts: to the United States. The New
York Sun, commenting on this circular,
says Evarts made. a. blunder, as the,
laws of different countries regulate
their passenger traffic, and the respon-
sibility of common carriers is clearly
defined When these laws and regula-.
tions are. executed in good faith the
duty OF the Government ends. eff, ;"
says. the. Sun. "a form of religious be-
lief is once made a test, where is the
line to be drawn?" Mormons in general
appearance are not different from other
persons, and, if they did not choose to
avow themselves of that peculiar faith,
It would be hardly possible to separate
them from persons of other denomi-
nations.
That the Sun. is right and that Egarts.
Is wrong there is scarce doubt. Nor
mons do not practice polygamy outside.
Of Utah, and it is not likely that the
Governments of the countries from
Tshich they emigrate,. would prevent
chem from leaving because they pro-
fessed TO be members of the Church of
Latter Day Saints. The Administra-.
tion if it desires to suppress polygamy
N Utah, and prevent the violation of an
Actof Congress, must deal with the
Mormons directly. Let them be made
TO understand that the law will be en-
forced. and that every person, who..
from this date forward, practices polyg-
amy, will be prosecuted, and the Nor
mons will very soon learn to respect the
authorities and obey the laws. This eff
fort to suppress polygamy in the United
States, by getting foreign countries to
prevent persons who ara not guilty of
the offense from emigrating from thosa
countries, is unworthy Government,
which is strong enough, if disposed, to
enforce its own laws in its own terri,
tory.
