MORMON MURMURINes.

Prescott Miner: John ". Young, son of the prophet, being one of the principal purchasers of the 120,- GOO acres of land near Flagstaff, it is reasonable to suppose a Nor mon colony will be planted there. It is also rumored that Brigham Young, Jr., is in Mexico looking up a location for the persecuted Utah Saints.
 Prescott Journal: Bishop F. A. Brown, convicted of polygamy in Salt Lake, in making his plea to the court, sad he was only obey ing the dictates of his conscience in the practice of which he stood convicted. It is just possible that Bishop Brown, not being familiar with phrenology, has mistaken his bump of amativeness for his con- science.
 Prescott Courier: Mormon lead CTS of Salt Lake City, are fooling themselves if they think the Amer ican government and people will permit them to keep on preaching treason against the laws of God and man. Their idea appears to be that they are the Lords chosen people and that he will smite their enemies; that, in fact, they would in case of trouble, be enabled to get away with the United States. Deluded mortals, they would not make a mouthful for our govern ment.
 Prescott Journal: "No rogue ere felt the halter draw with good opinion of the law" We have been forcibly reminded of the truth expressed by the above poet ical sentiment by the contortions, evolution, writhing and squirming of that ancient and mummy-lil.e relic of newspaper CD enterprise CPD the Orion Era, edited by that fossilized specimen of devotion to the practical working of polyga- nous concubinage, Bishop Milner, of the Mormon stake, at St. Johns in Apache county. The last issue of the Era is pregnant with proof of two facts: First, the hemp either has been applied to the breathing machine of the bishop or some of his friends. Second, that the poet who wrote the lines heading this item must have been inspired" and had the Orion Era in his vision.
