The census returns of Utah show
what is specifically at least an un-
expected result. Notwithstanding
the polygamy practiced there, which
allows any male Mormon several
wives, there are more males than fe.
males in the territory. More than
o.thirds of the Inhabitants are
natives of the United States. There
has been an increase Of nearly seventy
per cent. in the population of the
Territory since 1870, when the sexes
were nearly equally divided. The
females have increased at the rate of
sixty per cent. and the males at the
rate of about seventy per cent. This
is probably the result OF opening up
mines of precious metals. which first
attracted an almost exclusively male
population.

iG And Mary said, My soul doth magnify
the Lord,
Al And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my
Saviour.
IS For he hath regarded the low estate o.
his handmaiden for, behold, from hence
forth all generations shall call me blessed.
49 For he that is mighty hath done to me
great things and holy is his name.
80 And his mercy is on them that fear him
from generation to generation.
81 lie hath showed strength with his arm
he hath scattered the proud in the imagina-
tiOn of their h, arts.
% He hath put down the mighty from their
seats, and exalted them of low degree.
53 He hath filled che hungry with good
things and the rich he hath sent empty
away.
81 He hath holpen his servant Israel, in
remembrance of his mercy;
% As he spake to our fathers, to Abraham;
and to his seed forever.
