Show WASATCH. TI11 UMOJV AND GENTILE VIRTUE. O! Che Mormons are in court. The Iriet-attorney is determined to test : question whether polygamy can n ally exist in a Territory of the rC! tied States. Tho grand jury has :n impaneled with special relerence this cause, and several discontented or !cs of much married Mormons will !1 piy ior ino reuress oi meir peculiar ; cvancea. It certainly looks as jugh tlie "peculiar institution" of y, ah is doomed, and soon must yield L the ghost, however these particular ;cs may be decided. The Gentiles, C 0 arc now flocking to the Territory r large numbers, aro fast destroying f ) unity of public sentiment, and ? 1 soon have a controlling voice in Z affairs. Not that they are any P ,tcr than the Mormons, and un- abtedly many of them would be t d to own more wives than Brigham s; but then they are not so impolitic to engage for tho support of a ole harem. This is what much of j Gentile virtue amounts to. i,7-n Am |
