An impression prevnil, with many people that

great Rislinp of that Clturoh) was lent tn Eug

Government, at the breaking out ot the rebel
lion, to fairly represent tho great issue it
tithe, in Clio roll circles, we now have the uu
qualified statements of Bishop Kip, uf Califor
nia, In defense of the war, which are copied
from an addresi delivered by him in Germany,
Juno 1st, 1865, being the day nf fuititig and
prayer appointed by Prusident Johnson, aud
published in pamphlet form' by prominent
Aineiioaii resident in that ooentry :
lit'bcllion against the justly constituted au
thority nf tha land ii u mncli a violation of re
ligious duty as it i a crime against the civil
law. It is a disregard nf this principle nf reli
gion which haa fur year past delnged our
country with blood made often " a man foes
they of his own household," and spread sorrow
through every friendly circle. In our fancied
soennty wo were suddenly alarlled by the out
break lira convulsion uulnoked lor ami unex
pecteil excited by mi oppression, and which
(truck a blow at the Veryxisteuoe of flu) Gov
ernment. As wo now Inok buck upon the con
test, its history is liko the "roll of tho hooli"
seen in the vision by the prophet Kzekiel,
" written within ami without with liniieiitiitiiui
and mourning and woe."
Hut ret everything iu the retrospect is not
sorrowful. Not utiiuingled with light have been
tho dink socnes through which we have parsed.
There hiive been visible blessings united with
the judgments we have experienced. There
are worse pvils, brethren, than war even than
civil war. National degeneracy is worse, where
a people sink lower and lower each year, and
high-toned honor is forgotten, and every noble
impulse is Inst In the strife of money-getting.
And so it was tun in noli wilh us. Many year
of peace and prosperity hud materialized the
minds of our people, and they were grow ing
mure and more ' of the earth, earthy." They
were caring only for the physical thing ol life,
for getting gain, mid adding house tn house
and field In field."
Then this storm burst upon u aud awakened
our people to new ami unaccustomed impulses.
Il developed the dormant pniriutism of the
mnsM'S. Self-detiiul nnd self-sacrifice for
country's suite became living things, and they
who devoted In this cause those nearest anil
dourest to them, nml saw them go down, one
by one, upon the battle-field, wero taken out nf
their own narrow interests, and learned that
the love of country is n vital principle, ami pa
triotism something more than a mere name.
And they who ' perilled their their lives unto
death in the high places of the field " were
actuated by higher impulse than those nrisiug
from " the greed of gold." Tho whole tone cf
tho nation hns .thus been elevated and enno
bled by the fiery trial through which it passed.
The solemn snurifico ofti-rcd ou the nltnr or pa
triot duly brought down it blearing, and what
wns sown in tear upon the battle field will one
day be reaped in )oy in the harvest of loftier
principle than of old. The blow that fell upon
us realized what I ho superstition of the ancient
ascribed to lightning consecrating what it
southed. ,
Wo cannot, therefore, ask in despondency,
as we look at the thousands who died on the
battle-field, Wherefore is this wasln !" Wi

Hut beyond this mere elevation of national
character, there are tangible and evident hen-
lit resulting from tin Icanul strife. It swept

an aiiiiliug peace lor the future. It urcaietl

Injustice is 10 frequently done to President
Johnanu by those who oppose hie policy of re
organization, that many people nave no correct
notion of the ease a it stand in the President's
own mind. The following statement, in a let
ler to the Cnlnmhn (Ohio) fu7e Journal, said
In be SPtni-effioiul, presents the President's
uienry oieariy s
The true key to the President'! proolama.
tinn is, that he hold the doctrine that the so
called Act nf Slate leoeasion are null and
void, and all nets done in pursiinnoe thereof,
and hence that all office held under rebel au
thority can bo declared vaoant by the military
authority of the President of the United State,
on the squelching; of the rebellion. Further,
thnt the Suite Constitution and laws In force
at the date of the pretended secession, having
been held In nlieynnce during the war, remain
in full force and effect, a they originally itood
before they were changed aud subjected to
recognize rebel authority. Therefore, hi proc
lamation recite, " That, whereas, the fourth
section nf the fonrth article of tho Constitution
of the United State declare that the United
State shall gnnrnntee to every State in the
Union a republican form nf government,"
therefore, he, 0 President nf the United Stales,
proceed to put in motion the mnohinery that
may enable the legal, loyal vijters of the State
tn set lu operation agniu the civil government,
referring hack to flu ditto of Iho so culled or
dinance nf secession tn uncertain who are the
legal voter of the State. However, by his
authority as Commander in-Chief nf the army,
ho prevents the rebel legal voters from exercis
ing the right of suffrage, hy requiring the test
oath set lorih in tho amnesty proclamation of
Muy Ui), 1865. lly this action ho enfranchises
nn one, but, by virtue nf hit pardoning power,
prescribes die condition on which a legal, loyal
voter uf the State may exercise hit pre-existing
right of mirrnge, by acknowledging tho Gov
ernment of tin. United States, without which
onth he I no voter uuder the Constitution and
laws.
President Johnson believe that neither him-
tell nor Congress ha any constitutional right
to create a voter ; hut that power the people of
tho several. states ooinpnsuig tho p eueral Unien
have rightfully exercised from the origin of the
overuuietit to tlio present tune. It hr no
tenns follows, as some nrgne, ihat if the State
urn as they were, unit helium, that the nlliuers
hum I'resiilcut Johnson ha displaced are the
glllinute Mate Lioreriiiiient, tliut acknowl
Iged the rebel authority, and resisted the par
amount authority nf Hie Constitution nl the
United states nv armed rebellion: which for-
its the right of these officer to hold office,
but not the right of the legal loyal voter of
the State tn choose other nlhcers who may bring
their slate again into ' proper practical " rela
tions tii the Government of tho Union. In the
beginning nf the war this principle was fully
recognized by every department nf the Gov
ernment, in rclcrcnoo to Virginia, when Pier
pont wns elected Governor by tho legal loyal
voters, end Carlisle and Willey admitted as
United State Senators, long before West Vir-
uia repuniled Ironi the balance of the State.
President Johnson, in hi proclamation, haa
not wiped nut any Slnto Constitution or lawa
that the United Slate ever recognized he ha
merely ejected tho rebel usurpers from ollice,
ncknonlediiig nothing that did not exist pre
vious to the so-cnlled secession. Taking np

FOIYGAMI AND BBIfiHAM lOUSfi. "
In a late letter, dated at Salt Lake and pub
lithed in the Chioago Tribune, Governor BroM
write a follow!
A to the fact we have been able to gather,
our conviction in regard to the demoralizing
effect of polygamy are, if possible, more de
cided than ever before. The men who prac
tice it have been edooated by on father and
one mother, and therefore the full result of
the system will not appear nntil long ifter th
present generation nl adult are dead, should
it continue to be tolerated by the Government
nnd the people of the nation. The want of
propar parental instruction that mutt exlet
where polygamy i praotioed, and the utter
degradation of woman, incidental and inepr
ahlo from the system, will a surely In the end
fall upon Anglo-Saxon polygamista a they do
opon the Oriental or any other heathen nalie.
A at the South slavery war, praotioed by the
praotioed hy the wealthy and tbe influential, o ,
thi peculiar vice I indulged in mainly by th
leading and wealthy men among the Mormon,
some say one-fourth, om think more and Mm .
lea, while tlie majority, and some of tbe lead
er a well, have but one wife each. While
the men whn have two or more wive pretend
to be thoroughly convinced that tbey are doing
righjwe are atsored that there t not an iiet
ligeut Mormon woman in the Territory, who.
when her real sentiments can be known, ap
prove nf polygamy. Whatever opinion w
may form uf the men, all who know anything
of the misery (hey suffer must pity the Mormon
women.. To ns they appear dejeoled and many
of them lienrt-hroken ; aud a time rail on,
the essential evil of the system must beoome
more apparent and revolting. Tn degrade th
woman from being the oompanion and tha
ornwn of her hut bund. Io a life tf mere serf
dom, ministering to the lu-ts of men, and
merely giving birth to other human animal, ia
the inofitable tendency and sura result of po
lygamy an unclean, abominable thiug. which
must not and cannot he permanently tolerated
in this civilized, Christain republic. Theaeaotr
thi determination it uuderttood hy those who
practice it the better t for, like all .fettering
snret, the longer it is endured the more diffloolt
of removal and the more dangerous it beoome.
Our conversation with Brighaiu Young and hit
leading men lead u to believe that they begin
tn onderitand their position, nnd in parting all
of n expreaaed the hope that, at they olaimed
polygamy waa permitted, and in mine ct
onminanded, by a new revelation, their high
priest iiiigui nave anniurr, peremptorily lornia
ding (ho system. Thi would certainly be ft
fieaooful and most happy wny to. remove th
ust foul blot upon the national character. Let
the revelation lie speedily made, and Brlgbaro
Yenng will complete one of the moat rventful
and the most wonderful peraonal hittorloi made
during the preient generation.
