MANCHESTER AND VICINITY.

Briefs. The regular monthly term Of
the CITY Court commenced yesterday. The
Judge embraced the occasion 10 get off q
parenthetical eXordium before the grand
jury. Nothing was done worthy of public
mention by the court or by the grand jury,
Dick Jones (colored) was tried before
Mayor Taylor yesterday for stealing five
pieces Of brass belonging to the Richmond
and Danvile Railroad Company, and sent
TO Jail for ninety days. The same party
was sent before the grand jury on the
charge of attempting to murder sam.
Roach, q depot Waterman. Being accosted
Sunday night by the Waterman while in
the act OF perpetrating a robbery he knock
ed down and nearly killed Roach, but was
shot in the arm and stopped in his sangui
nary career by somebody and finally cap
tured
Too much snow fell here for il to disall-
pear very rapidly, yet much Of that which
lately covered the ground has melted
Sleighing in the city limits Is laborious
proceeding, but is rather better in the
country. The Chesterfield roads are much
obstructed by the mud and slush consc-
quent on the snow.
The late fall of snow killed many rabbits
and cartridges by depriying them of food
or smothering them. Farmers say that
the snow has been beneficial to the wheat.
There is no appearance of a fresh or an
ice-Sorge in the falls of the James at pres
ent. The water is rather higher than
usual and filed with floating cakes Of ice,
but not in quantity from which danger
may be apprehended.

No report from the following schools I:
Pine-Street. Clay-Street, Manchester
Church, Sidney-Church, Leigh mission.
At the conclusion of the reading Of the
reports Rev. w. w. Landrum, pastor OF
the Second Baptist church, was invited to
address the Association. lie dwelt on the
consideration OF lie great importance, and
also the absolute recesslly, Of home train
ing--there laying the foundation upon
which TO build noble Christian character,
and he argued that the family circle was
the oldest institution in the world; that the
Sunday school was OF modern origin, and
while destined 10 be one OF the most pow
erful agencies connected with the Church
for the extension Of the cause Of Christ, it
could by no means take the place OF
thorough home training, aud was
simply happy and healthy auxiliary ;
but that at home-the place where the
,irst impressions are made, ofttimes the
sweetest and best, and which would out
weather the storm of life-was the proper
place to teach children to know and love
the truth-to be taught by the parents
themselves, not at the Sunday schools by
Sunday-school teachers.
Professor Harris suggested that the Sun
day schools needed more thorough or
ganization that the present is far from
being perfect. After the usual collection
had been taken, the Association was dis
missed with the benedictlon by Rev. X.
III. Pitt.

RICHMoND, VA, January ID, 1879.
Humanity sickens to witness the inhu-
man treatment of teams on our streets in
their icy condition. Teams with shoes as
smooth as the icy streets on which they are
compelled to go are whipped and often
beaten with the butt ends OF whip-stailS TO
pull loads. when it is almost impossible for
them 10 walk on the streets with no load
on them, by their drivers, who do not own
t,iem, and drive them as means of making
wages, and pound and cruelty beat them
as mechanic would an iron spike in
driving it into wood, feeling no more for
horse or mule than for the ieelingless spike
or nail. We have laws which positively
forbid such cr,leties to animals, and the
police could, if they would, stop these in
human scenes. GEORGE WATT.

A Disaster.

About IL O'Clock last night the loud
report of crashing -timbers startled
those who chanced to. be awake OF III
the vicinity of the Tribune building.
The ENTERPRISE was at once at the
scene Of tn e disaster and found the
structure lying in an indiscriminate
heap upon the ground, though, owing
to the darkness and high wind, little
could be determined as to the extent
of the damage. Of the heroic work.
during the summer, of the proprle-
tors, and their almost irreparable loss,

The NIOrll1OnS.

lU0 three members OF The u tIl
commission are now at Washington
preparing Il report. They do moi
give any particulars as to what they
will recommend, but in general way
they claim that while the Edmunds
act has not accomplished all that was
aimed at, it has accomplished some
thing, and is in fact the first piece OF
anti-polygamous legislation that has
done that. There are several points
in regard to which their experience
has led them to think that the law
may be made more efficient, and they
will recommend supplementary legis.
lation.
Judge Carleton says that while nc
statistics Oh the subject of plural mar.
riages can be obtained. the result OF
careful enquiry by himself, both in
Salt Lake City and in the farming re.
gions, satisfies him that po.
lygamy is decreasing, and
fOur.tifths of the male MormoDs, he
says, are not and never have been in
polygamy. About ZOO officials of all
kinds have been elected under the
supervision OF the commissioners, al d
while really all of them are Mormons
not one is or has been in polygamy
The homogeneous Mormons, however,
believe fully in polygamy. and he has
no very strong hopes that the mono.
gamous legislature recently elected
will enact any law hostile to plural
marriage.
The register of one settlement ap.
pointed by the commission told him
that the only anti-Mormo votes cast
at the last election were cast by HIM
self and his wife, while the Mormons
cast about 500; but while plural mar.
rage used to he very common in this
solidly Mormon community he was
confident that not Case Of the kind
had occurred for a year, and he at
tributed this to the fear OF the Ed
munds law. The Judge found no evil
dences of dlsloyalty to the government
except in SO far us the Mormons were
determined to obey what they said
was the voice of God rather than the
Of men. But they would
never resort to resistance. The Judge
did not believe that martial law would
avail. or that any good results would
follow from the employment of
troops.
