Considered from q physical, moral

ABOVE the average of Mormon polyg-

that a greater degree of peace and

is devOut to begin with, and from
the moment he decided to enter
into this extraordinary marital ex-
lstence he has determined to do his
duty to all who shared it with him.
D course, TO the characters of the
men who have entered into pOIyg-
amy may be traced the secret OF
their happiness or woe, even if their
act is viewed IS religious sacrifice.
q coarse, brutal man would, no
doubt, cause both wives and chill

reap the harvest of sorrow he bad

there are, the tale Of whose miseries

HIGH TONED PEDDLER A man has been
going through this county peddling at high
prices fruit trees and shrubs for Boston
nursery, so he claimed. The same man
went to Cook & Sons Vancouver Nursery
to buy up all their scrub and Gull fruit trees
at cheap rates, and with these he would I'M
doubtedly fill his orders for the fancy Bos-
ton trees. Nearly all the peddlers who claim
to take orders for eastern nurseries work
the same way, and many farmers delight in
being humbugged by them.

To THE PUBLIC We regret to announce
thus early that the Vancouver public school
will he discontinued for the present school
year on Friday, the 2Sth inst, for want of
funds. There is still small amount in the
hands OF the treasurer, which, with the APP
portionment to be made in July, would en-
able us to continue the school a month or
two longer. But this would not only re.
duce, just to that extent, the fund for the
next school year, but would leave the board
without any money to meet the expenses OF
the school from September to the time of
disbursement of the school tax in the fol.
lowing January. This course has been pur-
sued in some former years. and in this man.
ner We have got behind. We think it the
better way to close the schools this year a
little earlier than usual, for the purpose OF
getting corn, or as nearly SO as we can, and
keep SO in the future. On account of the
long vacation it is thought advisable to have
term of subscription schools. For this
purpose we have granted the use of the pub.
lie school building and such schools will be
commenced after brief vacation.
