“ that course which will give the least encouragement to the peculiar institutions of Utah,
or that will tend to-add vitality to what are
termed abominations by all civilized mankind eave the Mormons alone. Public sentiment threatens politicians and statesmen in
this matter, and this public sentiment co-operating with the natural prejudices of the
members of Congress themselves, will be
apt to cause their minds to be well exercised
on the Mormon question before they come to
& final vote.
In view of the disorders of the country, if
it should be thought polygamy and Mormoniam are ta the Gourse of extinction, and that
the erection of Utah into a State will hast n
their decay, or udd nothing to their lease of
existence, we do not suppose that Congress

It is, perhaps, proper to-say that these artieles have been brought out-by some remarks
of ours made in reply to certain strictures
in the Pacific on a late looture of Professor
Whitney, State Geologist. 14 is possitile we
may find occasion to dissent froth the views
of “ D. GW," before his series of articles
are efided. Meanwhile we commend to the
attention of the readers of the TRanscrieT
the articles wpon the “ Antiquity of the Hu«

' wiuch food for thought, and, therefore, will
prove an intellectual benefit.

Having possession of the lines of railroad
for somo distance South, Beauregard is able
to transport his treops suddenly so as to fall
upon Buell or Burnside, and possibly gain a
victory. By destroying the track behind him
McClellan will not be able to follow until he
has done his worst with the forces of Burnside or Buell,
Should Beauregard succeed in an attempt
on Burnside he will get command of the railtoad to South Carolina, and might be able to
dislodge Gen. Sherman from Port Royal.
The Independent argues that no fight need
be apprehended at Richmond. ‘fhe mild

SCANDAL IN THE PRUSsIAN CouRT.—The
unfortunate relations existing between the
Prince Royal of Prussia and his young wife,
Queen Victoria’s eldest daughter, are wel}
known. The Berlin correspondent of a German paper, published in New. York, tells the
following anecdote. Some time since the
Princess went into her husband’s apartment.
He happening to be absent, her female curideity prompted her to look into some drawore of his desk. and she there discovered a
beautiful diamond bracelet. Not doubting
that it was intended for her as a surprise for
the Wall to be given’ iv a few days, she said
nothing about it. The night of the ball ar.
rived but no bracelet was presented to her.
But, alas, “ phancy. her pheeliugs” when in
the ball room she saw the identical bracelet
encircling the wrist of « beautiful Italian
Countess! A’ scene was the consequence,
Princess wanted to go back to her Ma; indiffereat husbaud ‘said she might go, but
couldn't take the youngones. Ma was written-te; husband was reprimanded and the
affair was finely patched up.

ABDICATION OF QuEEN VicroRia.—The
Sheffield Daily Telegraph has the following
from its London correspondent:—" A painful
rumor is in circulation to the effect that the.
Queen has been so much afferted by the death
ofiher husband, that she has expressed the
wish to abdicate as soon as the Pringo of
Wales reaches his majority, which will be in
November next. I bope the rumor will not
be confirmed, buf I assure you that it is
quite prevalent here, and it is but too much
strengthened by the retirement in which Her
Majesty livee—-a retirement se complete that
her children even are not allowed to disturb
it, ove of them at a time only being admitted
in her apartments."

Tn-concluding this paper let me remark,
that this author is no friend to the Darwin
theory, or the belict “that animals were successively created in the order of their rela.
