THE Mormon Saints meet with little

THE Mormon Saints meet with little
difficulty in reconciling the divine origin
and sanction to their polygamous institu-
tions with the legal and other impedi-
ments that are found to encompass the
institution in Utah. Certainly, no man
who wants to lead an easy and comfort
able life will ever go into polygamy,"
says one of the elect. Whether on the
principal that too many cooks spoil the
broth or that too many wives in one
household spoil the Mormon's domestic
quiet is not stated. "If the Lord fail to
provide the way to carry out his will in
this particular, why, we can't carry it
out, that is all" adds this prophet
verify, a second Daniel And if the Lord
fail to enable Mormon elder to keep
hissixteen wives from pulling each others
hair and making things lively for the
patriarch himself, why then, what then
most pious and sanity Mormon? Mean

More Money Wanted for the Care of tho

WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-The secretary of the
Emigrant Aid society of the District of Column
bia received a letter from Gov. st. john pres-
dent of the Freedmen's Relief association of
Kansas, from which the following extracts are
taken: The tide of emigration continues to flow
northward in an almost unbroken stream and
unless checked by quarantine regulations es-
tablished along the Mississippi, there is no tell
ing just when it will stop. We find it very diff
fcult with the means at our command to re-
lieve the necessities Of the ref ugees, but are
doing the best we can and have thus far pre-
vented any actual suffering. It seems to me
the people of the North do not comprehend the
magnitude of the movement. Otherwise
they would certainly take greater interest in
the matter. So far, our association has ex-
pie. We have obtained employment for them,
and placed them in such situations that they
are now self-sustaining, but it has cost great
deal of money. We have received some sid
from abroad; in fact. from certain sections of
the country quite liberal donations have come.
The city of Cleveland, Ohio has given 81, 600,
but the great city of New York, SO far as 1
know, has not given that many cents. What is
needed is money. Our funds are nearly ex-
hausted, and whether we shall receive further
contributions. nothing but the future can de-
termine. OF one thing, however, you may rest
assured, young Kansas will not falter in her
duty towards this people, and only wish the
entire country would wake up to the magnitude
of the movement. Our association has expend-
ed, so far, for the relief of destitute refugees,
little over sc, 600.

DETROIT, Mich, Aug. l0.-Announcement
was made yesterday that Chas. F. Barron, late
general freight and passenger agent of the De-
troit & Bay City road, was a defaulter to large
amount. On Saturday he went to the superin.
tendent's Office, drew his pay and left the city.
Since that time he has not been seen, and his
wife becoming alarmed, left town on Tuesday
last in search Of him. The trouble with Barron
is undoubtedly mania for wheat speculation.
While employed on the Chicago & Northwkst-
ern he became financially involved by dabbling
in grain margins, being doubtless attracted to
the fascinating game by an extensive aoquaint-
ance with Chicago operators, In 1874 he was
appointed assistant general freight agent Of the
Michigan Central, with headquarters at this
city. It is said that the authorities Of the.
road knew of his troubles but on his promises
to refrain such dangerous pursuits gave him :

Notwithstanding the accuracy of the imi-

heat of from 545 deg. to $50 deg, Fahren-
heit to melt it. while the spurious sub

temperature. Moreover. while the real
article is only slightly attacked after a
very long time by ether and alcohol, the

with these liquids, and soen becomes soft
