ttafiely U IU. Th lt arrival from I'litli brings very Interring Intelligence of (be working of polygamy in iba social condition of tli Mormons. The progress of that religious plirenny, which hai poured in thousands of devotees into that Territory, it likely to roocivo a chrck from the contagion breed Ing wiibin iteclf, and which seemi to be ruing to the surface, threatening t tubver lion of their lyitem, tumbling to pieces the god of their wioked and iniana idula try. The unnatural condition! imposed by polygamy are lending lo an outbreak in their social relation, which will sooner or later be consummated by an open revolt, and, it ii to bo hoped, will determine fur ever tLe existence of lliii monstrous evil. The women who have been made lite dupe of this gross imposture are beginning In rcalizo their degraded and unnatural con dition, and are making themselves heard iu their cries fur relief. That they are powerless now to obtain any deliverance from llieir bondage is per btips loo true ; but their condition will un questionably deter others of their sex frum entering thoie "cities of the plains," which are destined to be scattered and broken up by the Increasing travel between the At lantic and Pacific, and more especially by tho construction of a Railroad that will bring with it an infusion of uncontami- natod genuine American sentiment. The tyranny exercised over the miods of the Mormon devotee, seems to be even grca'er than lhat of the Prophul over the Turks. Brigham Young, their Trophrt and Priest, in his lost discourse delivered at Suit, Lake, in September, reveals :he oenditiun oflheir women, while he lectures them like so many animals given for the delectation of the salnly followers ef Mnrmonism. The following extrncts from his address peed no commentary : "It has been said that women aro tied down and abused; that they are misused, and have not the liberty thoy ought to have ; Hint many ot ttiem are wsuinp through a perfect tloud of tears, because n the conduct of somo uivu, together with their own lolly. '1 wish my own women to understand that what I am gainr to ny is for idem as well as others, and I want thn who are here to lull their sutlers, yes, nil the women of this community, and then write it back to the States, and do as you tilcaie with it. I am going lo give you from thii time le Ida Gill or October next Tor relied ion, that 1 you inuy determine wLetlier you with to stay with your husband or not, and then 1 ant going to set every woman at liberty, una sny to them, 'now, go your way,' my women with the rest, 'go your way.' And my wives have got lo do one of two things: either round up their shoulders to endure the iiflliclions of this world and live their religion, or they may have, for I will not have them nbnut me. I will go into Leaven alone, rather than to hiivo scratch ing and fighting around me. will tot all at liberty. 'VVImi, first wife too f Yn, 1 will liberate you nil. "Now recollect that I wo works from to morrow I am going to sot you at liberty. Tho first wife will sny, 'It i hurd, Tor 1 have lived with my husband twenty year, or thirty, and have raised a family of chil dren for him, and it in a great triul lo me for him lo have more women.' Then I say it is liino tli ut you gave him up to other women who will bear children. If my wife had borne me all the children thai she ever would bear, the. celestial law would leach mo to lako young women that would have children. Do you understand thin I havo told you, itiuny times, that ihern are multitude of pure and holy spirits wailing to lake tabernaclei. Now, what is our duty f To prepare, tubfininclei for litem f To lake a course that will not lend l drive those spirits into tho fumilira of tho wicked, where ihey will bo trained in wicktiduess, debauchery, and every species of criino J It is tho duty of every righiemis man and every woman lo prepare, talerime.lc fur all the spirits they can. Hence, if my women leave, I will go and search up otltors, who will abide thu celestial law, find let all I now have go where they please; though I will send Ilia gospel to them. "This is the reason why the doctrine ol plurality of wives was revealed, that tho noblo spirits which aro wailing for lubernu cles infill bo brought forth. "Sisters, 1 urn uot joking; I do not throw out my proposition to banter your feelings, to seo whether you will leave your husbands, nil or any of you. lint I (lo kuow there) is no cessation to the eva luating winnings of many of tho women of this Territory ; I inn satisfied lhat this is the case. And if the women will turn from the commandment of God, and con tinue to despise the order of licavan, I will pray thai tho curse of tho Almighty may beoloso lo ihoir hei-N, and that it may be following them all tho day Ion;;, And those that enter into it and are faithful, 1 will promise I hem that they shall bo queens ia heaven, and rulers lo all eternity. "Hut the women come and ssv. 'Really, Brother John, and brother Villium, I thought you were going to make a heaven for nie,' and they get into trouble because a heaven is not made for ihern by the men, even though agency is upon women as well as upon men. True, there it a curs a upon the woman lhat is not upon the man, namely, that 'her whole auVtionsslinll be toward her husband,' and what is the next I 'lie shall rule over you.' 'But how is it now Your desire ia .to your husband, hut you strive i0 rule over him, whereas the man should rule over you." The Mormons will apply to our next Congress for admission into ilio Union. They are already virtually at war with our Government; Col. Steptoe, the rightful Governor of the Territory, found it impos sible lo exercise any power there, without sufficient aiililary force to resist the sa tire church, its priests and followers, who have declared that they will have n earth ly power rule over them, sav. uf their own appointment. It can hardly be supposed lhat our government will ejiUrUiu far a moment their application, coupled with constitution that sauctlons and upholds po lygimy. And tho question arises, what steps the Government will U justified in taking to establish a government in the Territory which has remained without the semblance of Federal authority sines ibo removal of Gov. Drigham Young. From present appearance! it would seem thai lime will work t cur of the obnoxious fea tures of their system. If such continue to be the Indications, their voluntary out lawry may well be made an obligatory condition, leaving to the future, with its progressive tendencies in intercourse, pop ulation, and continental changes, the work of eradicating the evil under which thii deluded people are no suffering. Cali fornia Chronicle. 03 Prentice, of the Louisville Journal, acknowledges i complimentary notice in an exchunge iu the following stylo: "We scarcely know, dear sir, Low lo thank you sufficiently We wish you were the sun of the IVsidcnl ofihe United States, and we were your fuiher.1 Two Opinions A Idler from Cnlcut. la speaking of the law which has lately received tho assent of the Governor Gen eral for authorizing widows to re-morry, says that so fur as he can learn the law is popular. Three Brahmin families within his knowledgo wero about to give their widowed daughters in marriage. The writer asked an old priest what he thought of the law. The priest looking around lo see tuat no ono was listening, said, "IT I P"ak from my soul, it is a wood law: If I speak with my mouth, it is an infamous piece of lyrncny." The same letter says .1 . .

A father and mother lived with Iheir two children, upon s desolate itlund in the midst of a great ocean, and where they were caal in shipwreck. Roots and herbs sufficed them for food they slaked thirst at a spring, and a cavern f the reck furnished them with a dwelling. Terri ble atorms and lightning frequently visited that des olate island. The children bad lost all remembrance of the manner in which they came to the island, and knew nothing about the main land. Bread, fruit, milk, and all oilier good things, were now almost forgotten. Oiieduy tiers Undid on Ibe island a little ves sel manned by four negroes. The parents were de lighted, and hoped lhat now, at last, deliverance hud come fur them. But tho boat was too small lo convey them all at once across to the main land, and tho fuiher undertook lo bo the first who should venture on the voyage. 1 The molhi-r and ehildreu wept when Ihey saw him descend into the little fragile bark, and when the black men eouveyed him away. But he said "Weep not j yonder Is a better land, and you will soon follow me. ' When thu little vessel returned for the mother the two children wept Mill more bitterly. But sha too said "Weep uot ; we shall mcetug.iiu iu tho better land. In process of time the boat returned lo fetch away tho children. They were very much afraid of ihs black men, and trembled at the eight uf the billowy sea, across which ihey wen lo be eouvey ed. W iih fear and trembling they approached the land. But what joy waa theirs when they beheld their parenta standing on Ihs shore, who extended to them their hands, and led them into the rhudo of the lofty polio trees, and sealed them upon the green grusa, und refreshed them with milk and hou- ey and delicious fruits. "Ob, how foolish was our terror," said the children j "wo ought not to have been afraid, but rejoiced wheu the dark men came to convey us to Ihs belter land." "Dear ohildreu," said Ihs father, "our voyage from that desolate ialaud to ihia glorious country lias a Higher sigullicaiico for us. There lies he loi e us all a far longer journey to a fur more beautiful laud. Tho whole earth upon which wo. dwell resembles an isluud ; this glorious laud is also for us an im:ige, slihoiigh sn insufficient one, of heaven. The voyuge hither across the deep is death. The little boat reminds us of the ootfiu in which we shall one day bo conveyed away by black men. But when this hour conies, when we, I, your mother, or yourselves must leave Ihis world, fear not ; for good people, who love Cod, and who wish to do his will, death ia merely the voyage lo the better land." Death brings no lerrore to a Christian soul, To whom tho heavenly life has been thu goal; lie is conducted by God's f.ilhsr-hsud, Across Ute deep, uuto s belter land. The DlessliWs of lUUlnk.
