V The MoriitAiis have, although per- haps reluctantly. always- been migra­ tory, having removed their community successively from New York to Jttis-, souri, from Missouri to Illinois, and then from Illinois to Utah, reaching Great Salt Lake in the Autumn of1848. T»*e rumors*which have been prevalent siuce the agitation against polygamy among the Latter Day Saints, during TiciMdi'Sit liases' adisiksistintion,,' that ihr Mormons eoulcmnlattt tho ah«n- doumeut of Utah, possess a certain pmbabllity'from the,historic record of previous migration^. 'I'liey have hith­ erto shown a determination to forsake their homes rather than yield the foul social system which tiiev shield under ihe cover of their religion, and it is ible that they will leave the conn- gether, when it becomes unmis­ takable that the'government will not permit the practice of polygamy any­ where upon the soil of the United States. The truth of the report that an agent of the Mormons is now pros- pectit-g in Mexico, for a new site for the salty saints of Utah is not improb­ able. aiid it may lie that Mr. Kiddle will yet depict, the sentiments of the ghost of Brighani Young when tl\at worthy beholds the flight of the peo-, pie whom he has himself led from the prosecution which would restrict a Saint's right of marriage to taking one wile. The sentiment of the nation on the Mormon question is: Give up po­ lygamy or leavfe the country! As to whether the Mormons emigrate to Mexico we are indiflerent. But that they should be afforded the chance to go, which the eradication of polygamy will give, we support President ilayes in declaring. * T. ,.v ' '.4 v ' •V\4 §tS'« x -- •ST The N. W. R. R.

" iii ?Tew York, last week, the re of butter were 21,123 packages; exports were 5,800 packages. The very Jow prices of the past few seasons were partly accounted for by the- largo addi­ tion of grain fed winter western maka, and lieuce resulted the theory thatHhe retention of the entire sffumer dairies for winter supplies was no longer re­ quired, and that it was necessary that dairy butter in the old dairy districts Should be sold and got out of the way fresh from the churn in order that live­ ly desirable winter market* might re­ sult. This theory this winter, was nearly reduced 1o practice, and the markets are the better for it. There are very few entire New York State dairies of early tyitter on hand. The supply is almost altogether of fresh made stock,and yet there is no butter famine. From one point in southern Minnesota there comes to this markel about six car loads of fresli grain fed butter every week, and from others in I owa and Illinois approximate amount from each, so that a? one may say without auy of tiie old fashioned sum­ mer ufade dairy stock and with all the lower grades swept clean out the market, tliere U still enough fresii made western and fresh made eastern stock to keep the market going. The cost is fairly at it as well as the west There are more or less creameries now in Connecticut making butter all win­ ter. a few in western Massachusetts, and in New York state there is a grow ing tendency among private dairymen as well as in creameries to increase both the quantity and quality of the winter makes. The market, therefore Is working montly on this fresh made stock, at say 36@37<®38c. for choicest creamery, no matter where from, and ?5@30. for good to choice privite dairy packed, and 22@24c. for stand­ ard brands of western factory juiced Senatbl* Worrta from a Jadge. Judge Pinckney, of the Criminal Court of Baltimore, delivered . "i very strong and sensible charge to a* Grand .fury a few days ago. In the course of his remarks he said: *Mt is not unfVequent that H trial mis­ carries because of some flaw In the in­ dictment, or a variance^ as It is called. * v. . Q In tile evidence,.which cannot be cured by ail amendment. For this state of the law an exauso existed formerly iii wh«*ii there were mora than 200 capital otlenses, in the natural de­ sire of Judges and lawyers that as many persons as possible, whether Ifl- nocent or guilty, should escape the out* ragcous cruelty of a verdict of guilt?,* which might consign to the g:illo\yi perjmps a mother who .had stdlen A penny's worth of bread tb satisfy th<e hunger of a starving child, But- all this is now changed, and, instead of the fear of the innocent being convict­ ed, the scandal of the law Is that so many of the guilty escape punishment. The state's Attorney, then, should be allowed by law to amepd his indict­ ment :(t the trial (except, perhaps, in capital offenses), according to the proof in the cause, whenever an amend­ ment would not prejudice the' defend­ ant iii his defense on the merits.

It U lib thing new for John Bright to make a great spcecli. but the one he delivered at Rochdale, on the occa­ sion of the reception of his friend, Thomas Bailey Potter, was not only one of his best efforts but marked, and will help to make a new epoch in the relations between our people and our English cousins. It was one of tliose masterly productions of a great mind working out a great theme, which con­ stitutes An event in itself and begets an event. His sweeping review of tlie vastness Of <*ur territory and of its products and of the Inevitable growth of the United States by Immigration, is not only of great importance in itself, but is made to point a tremennus moral and warning when he sa\'s that much Of our growth from this source "arises from the foolishness of European people and European governments; all needless expenditure, all unnecessary oud grinding taxation, every harsh and neediest law, foreign policy which is foolish or wicked, and. costly l^ws which bind up the land and cause the great bulk of the population to be ab­ solutely divorced from It." In other words it Is the same old story of flight from the burden imposed by 'tyrannical governments. And there Is no protest so effectual as flight either for our Southern negroes or f<»r the laborers of Great Britain or of the Enropean continent. All of which is phtin enough Io n* over hfre, but fft - iie«Mts a tfohn Bright to make boVlt ruler® and ruled.abroad,listen to- 1ln» word* of wisdom. AND i S A L E R A T .
