One OF the most remarkable con.
spiracics on record recently came to
griGf in New York. An old merchant,
John Gill, after his wifn's iaah], about
ten years ago, gradually fell into the
power of two English servant girls,
the Woodhall. sisters. He was
Of feeble mind, and these women so
warped his servilc judgment that he
came to sely oaithein for everything
and refused to recognize his own chill.
dren., He gave away houses and lots
TO them, and finally they became so
arrogant that they dictated when and
where he should receive visits from his
children and, grandchildren. Finally
the evil became so unbearable to his
chiltlrcn that they appealed to the
Courts. 1t was shown that when one
ofsthe, sisters arrrycd. iai TINS. country
and was brought to the house of Mr..
Gill her only luggage consisted of a
chemisc and pair of stockings. She
had obtained from the old gentleman
$55,0O0 in Government bonds, besides
resi- estate, valued at 100000. On the
trial it was shown that The old man
was IN his dotage aud none of the riSss
made to the two iadventuresses are
valid The ease illustrates the
danger of allowing servants to usurp
the place belonging to members of the
family. Had the daughters in this
household been trained to take charge
OF it, the ascendency. of the adventur-
esses would have been checked at the
outset and much good coin would have
been saved.

Inasmuch as the question of imml-
grafton Is becoming vital one in the
y Eastern States, would it not be well to
review it as a whole. and not solely in
regard to Irish paupcrs. There are
numerous arrivals every year from
abroad Of persons who, under a strict
construction of the laws regulating for.
eign immigration, would be forbidden
to land. They do land, however, and
drift off to swell the ranks of the thrift.
less and criminal classes. This should
not be allowed; because, not only do
they lower the moral and social tone
but they lower the politicaltone a. well.
In q few years, the male immigrant
j, whateyerhis character may be, becomes
a voter, and acquires voice in the
h gpyernment ofthe country. When our
spslhtcal aystemconfers this important
right on aliens, 1t follows that the ut.
!, most care. should be taken to admit to
;. residence and citizenship only those,
who are worthy. In this, category arc
Mormon immigrants, who, although
for the most part are young and vigor-
. Gus people are very ignorant, and come
40 the country to- Join political and
!. religious organization OPP osed in prin-
cipal to the Constitution and laws of
the United STATUS. Whatever may be
seconomic merits, therefore. Mormon
immigration is by no means desirable.
