Show Miss Cleveland's Part of the Message. Can anybody who has studied Miss Cleveland's essays enough" to become familiar with her habits of thought and expression, doubt that the glowing periods on the miseries of polygamy which we have quoted from the President's message mes-sage to Congress were written by her? If Miss Cleveland did, as appears to be the case, furnish her brother with the most intense and energetic passage in his discussion dis-cussion of the Mormon problem, the fact is certainly verv interesting. It is, perhaps, the first time in the history of the United States that a woman ' has contributed so important a part of so important a state paper. The incident is equally creditable to the President and to Miss Cleveland ; and we need make no apology for violating, violat-ing, for this once, the tacit convention which treats the annual messages as if they were the production of a single pen, and necessarily the work of the President himself throughout.
