Mr. Stockdale next addressed himself
to the spirit of sectionalism which per-
va1es the Republican ranks. He would
not stir up the memories Of the past,
over which the dark and turbulent Wa
ters OF oblivion should roll, were they
not brought up by the Republicans,
whose recuperatiye powers and energy
in some directions are the marvel Of the
Lord.
After expressing himself pretty fully
on this point Mr. Stockdale proceeded
to talk OF the part that the young men Of
the country are now taking IN public af-
fairs and matters Of state. He rejoiced
to see them coming to the front 1t vas
well, he said, that such was the case, for
these in years TO come must hold the
helm of State. He made pleasant refe-
renee to Mayor Ellyson's elevation

and bravery OF the women of Richmond

The Moridons Must Go.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-The annual
report of Governor West, of Utah, has
been made public. In the course of his
remarks on the Mormon question the
Governor says:
Nothing canjustify the despotism ofthe
Mormon political system to the people
who have known and appreciated the
blessings of free government. The unity
of Church and State is perfect and In.
dissoluble. 1t is based upon the conf
plete and absolute control of the priest
hood, welding supreme power, exer-
cised and yielded to as emanatipg
Immediately from God, in all things,
secular as we'll Las spiritual. The word of
the priesthood is, to the Mormon people
the command of God, not only in matters
of faith and morals, but in all civil, polit-
ical and commercial affairs. This priest.
hood not only rules the Church, but
governs the State.
The Governor says that he has no
religious controversy with the Mormon
people with polygamy left out Of the
question, but he declares that the local
civil government of the Mormons is as
theocratic as that of the ancient Hebrews.
Pending the settlement of the question
of admitting Utah into the Union the
Governor recon- mmends the appointment
by Congress of a committee With full
authority to make complete and thor
ough investigation of the civil as we'll as
religious conditions heretofore and now
prevailing in the Territory. Justice to
the whole country, the Governor says, as
we'll as to the Mormon and Non. Mormon
people, requires such investigation to be
made.

IS SPARTANBURG, Oct. GA singular
criminal prosecution was begun to day
before Trial Justice Carlisle. Last Fri.
day night Marion Stevens, white lad
aged Is, was married TO Carrie Boitre,
aged 13. They first went to Major A. B.
Woodruff, a trial justice, but he refused
to tie the knot. They next called on the
Rev. Simpson Drummond, who married
them. As soon as Berry Boitre, the
the father of the girl, found out what
was done he brought an indictment
against Stevens, and will perhaps include
one of his neighbora in the prosecution.
It is said that these children had no
courtship, but we're persuaded by acer-
tain man to marry in order that he might
get Stevens to work for him. His un-
derstanding was that he could not hire q
minor unless he was married.
BANGOR, NE, Oct. ga special to
the Commercial alsays Captain Tufts Of the
schooner E. a. Foster, of and for St.
Johns, N. B. from New York, October
16, put into Southwest Harbor October
26, and reports that on Wednesday, the
24th, she fell in with an unknown
schooner on Jefrey's bank, about 8 a.
n. At noon the wind was q gale, accom-
panied by snow and rain. The captain
of the Foster noticed that the strange
schooner was steering badly and was fall.
ing-astern. He watched for signals of
distress and was prepared to render assis-
tance. A little later, being then about
one and one. half miles in the rear, the
unknown schooner suddenly sank, and
Captain Tufts has no doubt that all on
board went down with her. The I'M.
known schooner was laden under deck,
carried q man topmast and had a new
foresail. She appeared to be of120 tons,
and of American build.

Keeping Cotton Back.

L u M
a leading Savannah cotton buyer in
formed a News reporter yesterday that he
has information that the Farmers Alli-
ance of Georgia and Alabama have taken
united action to withhold their cotton
from the market from November ! to
November 20, and for a double purpose
on account Of the high price of baggipg
as arbitrarily fixed by the Bagging
Trust, and because cotton is, in their
Judgment, selling at figures below what
it should command, and they argue that
by keeping back the cotton for twenty
days the price Of bagging will decline and
cotton will appreciate ia value.
The gentleman says that cotton has
been and is now kept from going forward
for the reasons which combined to bring
about the action Of the Farmers Alliance,
and that the falling off in the receipts of
cotton is due to the causes above men
toned. He says the fields are white and
the crop large, but that the quality is
inferior, showing discoloration, and that
while be could have bought 1000 bales
of strict middling at this time year ago,
it would be very difficult matter to buy
one third that amount from factors now.

A New Yellow Fever Theory.
