Polygamy in Utah.
In England the law frowns up
the marriage of a man to the sis
-of .a deceased wife, but iia this co
try common usage sanctions a m
marriage to the. sister of a..livi
wife, and the temporal and spirit
rulers of the; people .not : only ass
at the solemnization of these in
riages, but set the example in th
own practice. Two of Brigh
Young's wivcis are sisters, and D.
Wells, the present Mayor of S
Lake City, hits two pair' pf ist
among his plural wives. Both
these examples, however•, are thio

It may be asked by our readers
whether polygamy, especially in its
more shocking forme, is not gradu-
ally giving way before the advance
of Christianity and ciVilization. To
this I reply, thst in Salt Lake, and
at other points where the Gentiles
are sufficiently numerous to make
their influence felt, women who have
been unwillingly held in the bonds
of plural marriage are taking advan-
tage of the present state of affaias
to make good their escape , and many
of the young people who, in their
hearts, have always loathed the
system, but who have not dared
hitherto to express their sentiments,
are now speaking their minds freely
--the girls declaring that they
would rather die than. become the
plural wives of the old men whem
they would have been forced to
marry if the power of the priesthood
had continued unbroken. The wo-
men, however, have lived so long
under a reign of terror that it is diffi-
cult for them to realize the possibility
of disobeying- their masters now,

Thomas' Edectric Oil,
WORTH TEN Tr.:ES ITS WEIGHT IN GOLD. DO YOU
KNOW ANYTHIN'O Or IT ? NoT,:ri IS
There aro but few preparations( of medicine
which have withstood the hupartial judgment of
the people for any great length of tirne. One of
these is THOMAS' ELECTRIC OIL, purely a prepar-
ation of eix of some of the best oils that are blown,
each one possessing virtubs of its oam. Scientific
physicians know that medicines may be formed of
severql ingredients in certain fixed proportions of
greater pewer, end producing effects which could
never result from the use of any one of them, or in
different canabinations. Thus in the preparation
of this oil a, chemical change takes place, forming
a compound. which could not by any possibility be
made froin any other combination or proportions
of the same ingredients, or any other ingredients,
and entirely different from. anything ever before
made, one which producee the most astonishing re-
sults, and having a wider range of application
. than any medieine ever before discovered. It con-
tains no alcohol or other volatile liquids, conse-
quently loses nothing by evaporation. Wherever
applied you get the benefit ef every drop ; whereas
-with other preparations nearly all the alcohol is
lost 4n that way, and yen get only the small quan-
tity of oils which they man contain.
