Mormon wivos cannot enter lan.l, respecting Mormon emigration to
niB"ars t' he sound nn.l iit-r. Tho I this country, was moiled on the 10th
nrgitmattt i- that these women re
ally represent their husband., and
that it they are permitted io take
up land it will bo possiple for any
Mormon to nitrry himself into the
position of a land monopolist. In
fact this case reutiu ls one of that
wit who, at the time when it was
an English hotel custom to charge
guwts the price of a new c mdlc for
every pint of wine they ordered, io,
sisteu on having the candles brought
and 1'glitcd, and so by degrees
drank himself in!o a general illumi
nation. Jmt go tho Mormon men
would be remptL'd to increase their
niruts by the simple proco-a of tak
ing more wivi 8, and thus a mini
mum value of a Mormon marriages
would corn's to be precisely
ICO acres of land. Evidently the
Government could n ot submit to
sueh a sy.-t-.-ni as this. It would
be placing a premium oa pdygauty,
and disrriminatig injuriously against
those who had ouly one wife. It re
mains to be seen whether the refusal
to allow plural wives to enlarge
their husband's boundaries will
have any effect in discouraging po
lygamy, but it is not improbable
that it may.
Foreign Election Tricks-
Even in imperial Austria, it
seems, tliy are up to electioneering
tricka which rival the drollest that
are practiced in tli c freest and eas
iest paits of our own land. In
Galici-i, the two leading parties
are Polish and Rutheuian. At the
recent election, efforts were made
by both sides to secure the success
of their candidates a nd the two ho
tels on the market placa of JJrzezan
were filled with electors who had
come in from the country to record
their votes. The Kulhcniar.s
mostly priests of the United Greek
Church, who occupied one of these
hotels determined to steal a wireh
on their Opponent, by going to the
place where the election was to be
held, at sunrise in order to win
votes for their side. Accordingly
at five o'ciock on the morning of the
polling day, thry called the waiter
to brush their clothes "and boots
The waiter came and took away the
garments, bnt, although the priests
wait-d neatly aa hour he did not
bring them back. They rang and
shouted, but in vain; all the people
of the hotel seemed to be asleep.
At la"5t the priests began to suspect
that a trick vas being pi tyed upon
them. It soon became evident than
they must cii her allow theclectiot
to be completed without taking part
in it or go barefooted and without
thtir nether garments to the voting
place. They took the latfer course
but here too their adversaries were
too much for them. Scarcely had
they came out of the hotel when a
Polish policemin come up and
threatened to put them in prison
for improper conduct, if they did
not return to their rooms at once
There was nothing for it but to go
back and thV Poles won the election
of August, and did not in many in
stances reach its destination until the
latter part of the month. All of nnr
representatives have acknowledged
the rcreipt of it, but informs the de
partment that that nt this season of
IhHyear the Ministers of Foreign Af
fair arc absent from their posts, on
their Summer vacations, and for that
they have not bean able to communi
cate the contents of the letter as di-
fectrd in the-order of the department

Salvador, the Indian who mur
dered Paul Rieger, in Marin county.
California, was executed for that
ei ime in San Rafael, last Thu: sday,
Salvador has only killed five men,
and he talked about bis soul and bis
salvation and that sort of business
just as murderers usually do when
they stand with, the noose around
their necks. It is doubtful if such a
wretch had a soul, and if be had
whether it was worth paving, but
we arc told that his confession was
made to a Christian gentleman who.
had interested himself in the salva
tion of bia, Salvador,s soul. The
Christian gentleman must have bad
a great deal of spare time on his
bands. There ought to be a place in
Heaven set apart for murderers, who
all go to Heaven, as there is no en
couragement for decent people to try
to ram their way to celestial glory
when they are compelled to keep
company there with all the murder
ers and scoundrels who repent and
find graco at the last moment. The

Meantime the French drain of gold

This determination having obtained
credence in Paris, it is being antici

In a letter to Mr. Ellis, dated
March 6th, 1849, Macanlay writes
"ilow they settle the matter I care
not, as tho Duke says, one twopenny
damn" (see Life II 25", cd. 1878
In a note on the expression Mr. Trove-
Ivan says: "It was the Duke of Wei
lington who invented this oath, so
disproportioned to the greatness of its
oulhor." But perhaps the labt word
should r.ot be spelled with an n.
there not in India a small coin called
a dam, worth about three farthings
In quotation I have met vrltk from
code of Gentoo laws a good; wife is
one who will not expend a fingl
dam witjout her husband's consent.
The Duke's czpression may possibly
not be an oath, but simply an asser,
tion of unconcern expressed in mon

This subject has been written upon
by writers in almost every town, call
ing upon the residents to improve
their homes, by the planting of trees
and shrubbery. Ia our city, where
all the means are at hand for per.
forming such workv and; whose cost
would be but a trifle compared with
the profits gained, there is but a poor
showing. As we pass along, every
house looks deserted and bare. Some
few places have a few trees, and a
small showing of shrubbery but of a
sickly appearance. There fa no
doubt, but what nil kinds of semi
tropical plants, will grow in this val
ley and it only needs a little care to
have them in as great abundance as
hose of other locations. Every
dwelling house in our town should
hava fine garden of flowers and or
namented trees would be attractive
and pleasant and the town would be
the gainer ia the end.
