Timet. . , The new Hone bill to d uilulah the Terri tory of Utah is the roost vigorous attempt yet made to solve the Mormon problem. As Mr. Waubbnme eald, it is a bill to "disnietnbe Utah." It slashes into the Territory on all Bides a huge Bllce here for Colorado, a elice for Nevada, a slice yonder for Montana, and a slice for Wyoming. It is, in fact, a general onslaught upon the territorial expauae of Utah; atd whatever contiguous FUte or Ter ritory may ask to "cat iue a cantlo off" from JJrlgham Young's doinalua shall have H Straightway done. An n. niece of domestic legislation, therefore, lhi bill of the Comuiittue on Territories ia of lbe highest importance. It will not of itself eolve the Mormon problem, but it will march towards the e olutlou; and keen as is the throat It gives to Mormoridoui in general, it p e joea deeper yet the perfional pride and ambitions hope of Brigham Young. , Far more than a fauatic, far more than the head of a new religious sect, or even of aa nniver alChuroli.WMm Young is now R3 he baa for eigbt-aud thirty years aimed to be, the bead of a State. He is, and is proud to feel himself, less the leader of a seot than of a people. He calls himself not preacher or pro phet, but President. We never shall rightly understand Mormonism, still leas understand the character of ISrighaia Yourjg, till we ap preciate to the full his claim and his aspiration to the re'de of empire-founder. In that lies the secret of his Bturdy devotion to building up Utah, making the very wilderness to "bloa Bom like the rose." His hydra-headed proselyting machinery; hia missions all over the world in Great ISritain, Sweden, Russia, Denmark, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, in the Sandwich Islands, In Australia, at the Cape of Good Ilope, in the Jiast Indies, in New Zealand itself; his Euro pean system of conferences" and "districts of conferences," and "branches" and "dis tricts of branches," working as accurately as any direct political government; his home organization of "quorums of the seventies," and quorums of the elders, the priests, the teachers, and the deacons; hia well-traine.i and closely-governed "commonwealth" in Utah. all of these tend to one end, namely, the perfecting of a grander State of the future, ruled by him or hia successor. And hence, one of the Mormon elders has publicly declared that "nowhere can the Mormon movement ba o well understood as in its foreign missions. In working out the problems of these, you have the sum of the whole. It ia out of them that the Utah community has grown; for, even after its members emigrate thither, they are but so many organisms of missions hrought together into geographical unity; nothing has changed but territory." And he adds: "Ihey are all one great common wealth, though scattered throughout the whole earth, and Brigham is as much their temporal and spiritual ruler in foreign mis sions aa he is at home." What is it, then, that Mr. Ashley's bill does for Brigham Young's projects ? It seizes on the lands, whither he had designed sooner or later to transport millions of hia followers for settlement. In his imagination, he haa seen Utah a compact, thickly-settled State, amply able to demand admission, if he likes, to the American Union. He has come to regard its hills and valleys as his own, or those of "the Church." He Las already brought ten3 of thousands of settlers to Utah; but with one expression of will he could add probably a quarter of a million to its population within a year, having both the "spiritual authority" to collect his Church throughout the world, and the ready money to bring them thither. Upon these very lands which he has de signed to be tenanted , or owned in future by hia own Church, Congress ia now preparing to make inroads. Mr. Ashley's bill, it ia true, does not interfere with the settled portions of Utah; but its main object, as declared by that gentleman, is to so give away its unsettled ter ritory "that there would not remain enough in Utah to make a State." lie even announced that "he originally drew up the bill to blot out Utah," bat yielded to the committee, who thought "the Mormons should not be dis turbed where they are." Polygamy is thus treated like the doomed wild beast not, in deed, attacked in his lair, bat surrounded with a fatal oirole of lire. That Brigham Young has foreseen the pos sible necessity of civiiiK up one day his pre tenalnnn to ruling hia 'common wealth," his "empire." as an independent political uoay, u clear. That he has Inwardly Bolved the ques tion Boon to be forced upon him by resolving to make Utah a State of the Union, if possible, may be surmised; for no one knows better than he that It is that or ruin for him and hia life-long work. lie must either mount on the wave of Western progress, or be swamped in It. Nor should we be surprised to learn that, if it came to the worst, he would give up the distinctive features of Mormondom, including polygamy Itself, rather than lose all his power. But this new demonstration must alarm him. It is not only a crusade against Mormondom, for that he might have endured, but a direot thrust at his State-founding schemes. The dream of many of his people (perhaps it has been hia own) is that IVigham Youug will one day be President of a domain as broad as the continent. What will they, what will he, now think, to find the chief part of Utah par celled away to other Territories, and the rem nant that ia left "not even enough to make a State ?" The f runty of Uraut. from the N. Y. Worht. The 7 tmes indecently quotes aud comments npou an alleged "conversation" with General Grant about the impeachment of President Johnson. We beg leave to inform the 'Jimcs, "by authority," that ' no human being has shared any conversion" with General Grant on thia subjeot, or on any other subject of a publio and important uuiiaoter. It should be understood by this time that General Grant oonflnes his "conversation" exclusively to horeea, whinh are not "humau beings," though Mr. Bergh would have us treat tuem as Buch, and to aides-de-camp, whose profes sional duty it is to Lave no opinions and totuk for none, to speak when they are spoken to, and oome when they are bid. In this way General Grant hopes to keep his nid oleax of political complications, and to preserve hia equilibrium as successfully .a i. inAou who never heard more than m.. nf the nuestion for fear of muddlinc Litnaelf. His method of intellectual disci pline for the Presidency is happily illustrated 111 ft "llttla fit At V ' loner current la Boston concerning an old gentleman, Wiggins we will call him, who for many years filled the respon- ible bat nnexoitinir tuition of cleik of a Massachusetts conn.

In the early part of Mr. Lincoln's adminis tration one of the humorous journals of New York published what is called an "account of a Cabinet meeting." "There has been a great discussion in the Cabinet," it said, "upon the question of the nomination of a Postmaster lor a frontier town of Maine. There are two claimants, Smith and Jones. Smith demands the office because he furnished lanterns for the 'Wide-Awakes' during the canvass. Jones brings testimony to show that he contributed the oil for the lanterns. The delicate ques tion involved has given President Lincoln much anxiety, and, after several stormy meet ings of the Cabinet, he ia still unable to decide whether the office should be given to the pro prietor of the lanterns or the contribntorof the oil." This satire gives an idea of the trou bles that surrounded Mr. Lincoln when he came into office. He never was free from them, indeed. Much of the care and oppres sion and weariness that came over him were caused by his yielding to the clamorous en treaties of ollice beggars who filled his parlors, and crowded his lobbies, and obtained an easy surrender of his precious time. Mr. Jenckes, in his speech at the University building, on Saturday evening, cited another illustration. After sketching the character of the civil service under the early Presidents $f the United States, he dwelt upon the change made by President Jackson, and quoted from one of the General's biographers these sen tences: ' Some of tho consequences of this change are the following: Formerly the Gov ernment was served by the t liteot the country. It ia now served to a considerable extent by ita refuse. How has this reversal taken place in the system ? Because men of intelligence, virtue, and ability desire to establish their business on a basis of permanency. Th fact that a man holda office" thia was in 1S39 "under the Government, implies that he i3 one of three characters, namely: au adven turer, an incompetent person, or a scoun drel." We hesitate to apply a criticism so sweeping to the men now in pub lio service, but one fact ia evident. The Government of the United States ia served by a lower class 01 men than those employed iu any other country, or in any branch of private tubinese. in nearly an the departments there are young men from college, or from good home Influences, who have oharaotor and industry. But they soon lly from ollioe. They find little inducement to remain. They can only hold their positions by neglecting their business and giving time to politics. They see promotion awarded to noisy, eager, incom petent men, who have no merit but partisan devotion to this senator or that uepresenta tlve. No futnre remains but to rust away and be forgotten in an obscure bureau, with a small salary, and children coming to them, and the responsibilities of life crowding upon their thoulders, without any corresponding advancement. If there were any system by which these young men could be kept in the publio service and gradually promoted; if they oould feel that their labors would be rewarded by the Government as the labors of their fellows are rewarded by private employers, then good men would be indaoed to remain in the national employment, and a feeliDg of espnt de corps would surround its departments, which is now limited to the army and the navy. In the army the young lieutenant, or even the worthy soldier, feels that no nnsurinountable obstacle to hia ad vancement exists, provided he is worthy of advancement, lime and service will probably bring to him honors as great as those which rest upon the brows of hia commanding offi cers. The consequence is, that as a class the officers of the army and the navy are superior; while, on the other hand, the men who fill our civil service are in many cases adven turers, frequently of doubtful character and in limited instances worthy and competent. We had hoped that the Civil Tenure-of-office bill would have been bo amended as to save the principle whioh gives publio employment to those who are worthy. The repeal of the bill by the House we regret. We pay no at tention to the speculations of journals like the Herald and the Timet, that its repeal was a triumph of "conservatism" over "radi calism," and that it wus demanded by General Grant. We believe the House to be governed by higher considerations, and we should lose mnch of our ccblidence in General Grant if we believed that he would expect any Con gress to hastily change a well-considered policy. Those who advise our new President most wisely are the tun who say to him that, if ho would take bonds for the success of his administration, he will counsel the passage of a measure which will elevate the public service. The passage of Mr. Jenckes bill will, we are sure, do much towards that result. Of the details of his bill we have nothing to say. It may be wine to create a board, making the Viue-Pesident the head of it, or itniay be wise to ignore the Vice-Presidency and appoint au independent Board of Commissioners. What should be done, how ever, is to purify the civil employments. We tee the result of inefficient service in the im perfect collection of taxes, the constantly re curring frauds upon the revenue, the loss of millions to the Treasury, the conversion of gn'Rt places like the Custom House Into political hospitals tor decayed politicians, and the general sentiment in the minds of the people that to be employed ia the collection of the revenue is to be engaged in a discreditable occupation. In tact, au honorable man can not seriously contemplute entering publio office without regret. We are, therefore, for the passage of Mr. Jenckes' bill, or tor a bill embodying its prin cipal idt as. We trust the House will consi der this nit asure broadly, promptly, and in trepidly, and that it will be deterred by no considerations but those of publio welfare. General Grant's administration will be a suo cess if the men who serve him are worthy. He oan only find worthy men by makiug it au object for them to serve the Government. He can best do that by inducing Congress to ele vate the standard of publio employment, or, failing iu Congress, to take upon himself that responsibility. If there ia a hotter plan than that of Mr. Jen kea' let it be IrUd. But none better lies jet been soggebted. The Mew Leader la Congrens. . Frrnn lha N. T. Herat. General Kilpatrluk last fall, In the Service of (Uh1 oliqae, went down n tsi ana into tht JoDsrecpion&l distriot of Mtssaohasettg ,.ui.uJ'''"r'" Geoiral Batler. Bat the kafpht of Jersey signally failed, and the next thing we bear Is that Batler in Congresi han au horsed Kilpatrluk. Thia derelopg in ButUr one of the strong points of General Jauksou. With the first opportunity he settled his out standing accounts. Secondly, of all the ene mies of Andy Johnson, the merciless impeacher Butler was considered the most implacable till latt New Year's day, when he went up to the White House and smoked the pips of peace with Johnson and drank the to.nt of Uip Van Winkle: "Hire's to you aud your family, and may yon all live long and pros per." Here, in the courteous gallantry of Butler, is another strong point of charautor, challenging the admiration of the South Carolina chivalry. General Qaattlebaoi has preached it, but Butler has practised it. "Let ns have peace" is the motto of Geu iral Graut; and of all the mottoes of the days of chivalry there is none to surpass theae four little words In simplicity and graudeur. It was supposed, however, that after the bottling up of Butler by Grant there conld be no peace between these men. Bat a horse fancier, who knew the strong and the weak points of Graut and Butler aa he knows the point of ahorse, found no difficulty in uncorking the bottle and in effecting a reooncHiation. Bohold the re sult 1 Butler, the stone whloh the radical builders rejected, accepted by Grant, has be come the head of the corner. Thus, to chauge the figure, Butler, aa by common consent in Congress, steps into the high-quartered shoes of "Old Thad" and lays down the law to the Republican party. On the Tennre-of-Office repeal forty-seven bewildered radicals fly oil at a tangent; bat they are out iu the col I. The promised land, flowing with milk and honey, lies in the other direction. On Batler's grand financial theory Congress, Wall street and Chatham street are all bewildered; but Rome was not built in a day. Andy Johnson holds, they say, that the publio mind In two years will grow up to his simple and effective policy of taking the interest of the national debt to pay oil the principal. And why, then, fhonld not publio opinion expand to the flexible system of Butler? Make paper the basis of values and gul i will soon come down. This ij better than the plan of the editor of the radical orgau of resuming specie pay ments without the specie, though the flexible pajer FyMem may puzzle the "bloated bond holders." At all events, aapuming that this financial system of Butler will take some time to ripen, we may say that as a man of great political ideas hnd of great tact and energy iu iightiug them, he will Bt ill hold his ground in the com ing Congress. In the Charleston Convention of lt-GO be voted fifty-seven times for Jell. Davi, And kept up the fiht on that line till the lienucratin party was broken to pieces. But what then ? He cut loose from the whole concern, and at Baltimore, as the Union gene ral in command, to the disgust of Davis, very soon settled the right of way to Washington. Next at Newport News, on the Jatne3, he first opened the yes of President Lincoln and Secretary Seward 1 1 the grand idea that negro slaves captured or fugitives from the enemy were "contiabandi." Before that, very ab surdly, Fiich property ha 1 been returned in obedience to the Fugitive Slave law. We had been shooting white men and delivering up their negroes according to the Constitution. Batler introduced the laws of war. But it was in his military-civil government of New Orleans that he most distinguished himself. Here his skill as a lawyer and politician, and his resolute and energetic character as a dic tator, proved him to be the very man to bring law and order out of chaos, and to make the laziest, filthiest, and most pestilential, the busiest, cleanliest, and healthiest city of the South. We say nothing of Big Bethel, Bermuda Hundreds, and Port Fisher. They were not in General Butler's line. But the force of charac ter and the peculiar qualities displayed by him in the civil affairs of Baltimore and New Cleans during the war are the very qualities required in the leader of the House of Kepre seutatives. Hence we think that Butler is the man to take the place of Stevens. We think, too, that having assumed the position, ne is the man to hold it; but we dare say that amone the wranrlincr factions he will have something like his New Orleans experience over again from and after the 4th of March. The Injured Husband in Illinois. From the N. Y. World. The Cole case is bearing fruit, and to-day we chreniole the crop in Illinois. Exhilarated by the reflection that a jury of New York had taken refuge in a monstrous and evident ab surdity from finding the verdict to whioh the law and the facts plainly pointed them, and that the Illinoisan juror was as likely to be a donkey as his congener of New York, the model spouse in this oase first became a spy to assure himself of his wife's infidelity, and then an assassin to revenge it. Of course, he will be put through a mock trial, and at its close will be released with acclamation -and congratulation, whioh will lead byBtandera to thick him and induce him to think himself a hero insteai of a murderer. There never was a case less palliated than in the light so far shed upon it thia one ap pears to be. Prom of old it seems the man had reason to distrust hia wile; but her old ollenses had proonred eo easy a condonation as certainly might have led her next victim for it la absurd to speak of such a person as herself the "victim" to stand in no great awe of the reawakening of an injured "honor" which had been once lulled so readily aud had slept so long. But alter the second or the third or the fourth, whichever it may have been, of her temporary connections had con tinued until it bt cauie a publio scandal, not his "honor" but Lis shume stirred him up, not to repudiate her and so rid himself of what ever disgrace her uoLduut had fastened upon him, but nobly to set a trap for her lover to fall Into. With his eye at the peep-hole which he had previously prepared, this high minded being stood and shivered until he saw the prey ensnared, and then, ' in a state," as the jury will probably put it, "of sudden frtnzy amounting to a complete overthrow of reason, " drew the revolver which he had put into his pot ket in patient aud hopeful antici pation ot bis sudden end ungovernable frenzy, and shot the man dead. And this ambush and buUheiy i t what passes in jury boxea for the fmit of feeling, which, if not iusauity, Is heroism, but which, in view of the statute as it stands, is probably iusauity an insanity for which the subjeot is not liable to be put in an asjlum or otherwise restrained of his liberty, but for which he ia to receive the tear ful enlcgiums of counsel and the sympathetic plaudits of what there is a truthful sarcasm ia calling a jury of Lis peers. It ia high time that all thia twaddld should stop. Either the breach of tho seventh com mandment la properly a capital offense, or it Is not. If It be bo indeed, let it be mala so by statute. But if it be not, then let a man who kills Lis fellow for it be treated as a murdurr. Ltt it not be understood that, in a country which claims civilization, the code U so de a ra fective in any point that its omUMoa mast b lepalred bj the unlawful eaorifloe of iiatuia lives. We have htA quite enongh o( the canonization of rascals tor the must rascally tot of their lives. Mililarv and civil offloea. a futini eoolal recognition, aud the headship of political parties are not the lit rewards of as fcAHtdDAtiun. One of the tnont nntrirnn ftiir nf nil these cases Is the fact of wbloh those conver sant with the ciruuntBtaucei of thein are almost always cog uizant that the men who choose these ninrderous means to right them selves lor a real or for a lauded wrong are thn very men whom that wrong really wounds the leait. The moral maxims which a woman puts Into practice abroad are generally those whl:'h she has leamed at home. A disregard of duty on the pert of one party to the nup tial coutract leads quitu naiurally to a disre gard of the duty, which at bo' torn is but re ciprocal, on the part of the other. And yet, as was proved in the case of the most noto rious of these marital malefactors, it is quite safe for the most unfaithful of husbauds to take the fiercest vengeance for the infidelity of the most grossly outragod of wives. It was with the odor of the myrrh wherewith the "strange woman" of Scripture perfumes her abudo still cleaving to him that the "dis honored" Lucbaud in that instauoa murdered a man whose character, besides his ovrn, was snowy Innocence. If jurors will forget, as Bailey and Sickles forgot, every feature of the case they are sworn "well and truly to try" save that they are husbands, it at least be hooves them to remember that other men ari husbands too.
