KA t'GURST10R OF A CDBB OP P9 We are satisfied that the Mormon qsestion must beoome,- sooner or lafterL' one of the inost important p ssibl y t M most Important that the; ti deal with. It is simply impossible tlat Mormonism : can - be ignored ' nJ ach loDger. It .will not agree to ignored, because it is aggresBive, at willed ' and wicked. " President aifiehl, in his inaugural, took ground. tb at jo stifles the confident expects-, that, he will tackle the. mon- tk)D rous aiigma and blight. He gave hi "th.it it was his determination to ert the power of the Government ir its suppression. i It is not denied that the difficulties he way of ; its suppression ' are pfeculisr and - formidable. . - Probably up living statesman is equal to the sk of furnishing the right solution. Whilst it is admitted, on all sides bat the great evil ought to be extir pined, and many . suggestions, have ueen made, after all the difficulties appear to remain ana trie solution d&sojved. j - We have before pointed. to some of the proposed remedies and the 1 imouiUes environing them. Il ls held . oneraily by tboes who have investi- fated the matter that there - can be :o cure as long as the present jury vstem exists in Utah. As Mormons - , ..... tompose always a majority of juries ha of causes in which Mormons are soncerned is but little better, if any, han a farce.. It is proposed, in view f this fact, to wipe ont Utah from he map and let it be absorbed in ad- J oioing Territories or States. In this way it would be possible for cases to. be tried at Salt Lake City to be re- raoved to other places and the. pecu- iar complexion of juries could be hanged. This , is one of; the sug gested remedies. r-,:-; s i- i There is to be another plan pro posed. .. . It is. believed when the next Congress is organized that a bill wil be introduced to. change the form of governments ' "he purpose, is Tto get rid of. , Governor and Judges and to place' the entire government.' of the Territory in the hlmds of a Commis sion to be composed of seven persons to be named by the Pr? sidentl There eould be many objections ; urged to. this plan. tlt j8nbyel, untried, con trary to usage, and subversive of the ancient order of things. Governing States and Territories by assort of Star Chamber would - not .be, agreea ble to the free people 'of America,' it strikes us. :Then .again.: it gives the: President additional, power, a thing3 not to be desiderated just tat this time, if ever. r The bill to be pro posed contemplates further disfran chising all polygamists, men and wo men also, as the latter are allowed to vote'inUtab:i3,ii csy:-3b23-.s t-r hrAl .

But Lord" Beacons- field's death would not only deprive the Tory party o; iu inost ; f signal eadership and be 'almost certain to prevent . its return to power within any reasonable time, but it would re move from British politics the', most aggressive, dashing and reckless of eaders. In this particular England woald be benefited. ; .: But whilst the leader of one" party is sick, perhaps fatally, the 'great eader of the other party is reported as breaking down rapidly under the cares of office., ; Now jn 7 his aeventy- first year Mr. Gladstone is doing the work;' of two industrious ' and able men. His recent lau nas also provea hurtful to his constitution.. I If we may trust -London ? correspondeots there can be no doubt that the great Liberal .Premier ; is ageing rapidly and growing weak very fast: tinder the very severe task that is laid upon him. y He was averse to taking office again, and it would have been much better for him if he had remained in retirement cultivating literature and his farm. His death would prove a very eeriom blow j to his party; but, great as he is, it is not without other very j ' able leaders, and possibly it ' would . not be as disastrous to the cause of progress and reform as would the death of his j great rival , prove disastrous to the hopes of the Tory Vartyf ' - When Beaconsfield and Gladstone pass away tne two most remarfcaoie Englishmen of the last fifty years will have gone - to their final audit. England is never without men bf high culture and superior abilities. She has now many able men, but none so marked as leaders as these roj! , venerable statesmen. , John Bright, in some respects, a greater orator than either or the two , we have named, is in .rather infirm health, and is himself an old man. .. But after all, however useful or illustrious or potential a man may be in his day and generation, and how ever necessary he may be deemed for the welfare and glory of his country, his place is : somehow quickly supplied,- and as Joe Jefferson says whilst .personating Rip Van Winkle, in tones of wonderful pathos, "are we so' soon forgotten." It is true that the impress of men of colossal minds is not removed speedily, and in case of great creative genius ' the influence and power continue all down the ages shaping men's thoughts and even moulding their- destiniesv But - with most men of ability their influence is limited and transitory and : their memories soon pass away. Mr. Glad stone is. not of 'this number, we feel assured. .7 Mis . writings will keep his' memory green for a oentury, whilst isgreat reform measures will eter nize his nname among, the greatest, purest and ' wisest of British . states- men. We trust that the great Libe-. ral leader : will - live i many years to come, and that wheTTTiis work is ended the God of ; nations will raise up some other pure, able, consecrated leader to carry on the immense work of reform begun1 and so much ad vanced bv William E.

Memoir ;df. a Confederate (Rebel) . .Generai- and in a Noern Tiistorical monthly; A note to the I ' T3 TVv ri -Tr- r-rp ldj2d:icSv:iiL Memoir stated that it had been subv mitted to Gen. Mahoneand "approved by him," and that it " was "corrected by the General's friend, CoL S.

Gen Bradley and CoL Robert E A nortion ! of the corresnondence was pubUshed.1 however, embraced only the first letter of Gen; Early and the last letter of Geri. Mahone, . with a : short ; oonclhdmg letter by Cfehi Early. Gen; Early first demanded if it was true, as stated in the note, that the Memoir had been first "submitted" to Gen. Mahone and "approved by" him"before its publioatioo,and wheth er the language ' attributed to" , him, Gen. - Mahone, "therein," was r his?
