i of l't!'mil,!! rj on Population.
'li e ellect upt n population is decidedly
delete :o:.s. The propl et Joseph had over
lorlv wives at Nauvoo, ami the rest of the
p'iesthnod had various numbers, cones-p.-rirng
to their standing and inclination :
em! ti'Ttily all the children of these polyga-ir-ta.s
marriages- died at that place; indeed
it is n'.lee-ed bv V irinons that ncit one was
t ik. n Ui I t .li. Mrigham Young has thir
ty children, of horn eight arc l.y his first
mid second I.iwfi.l w ives ; the remaining
f.v'-n'y -two r-.ro bv lus .''' iliials. He has
at,. tut' fi'ty wives, some of whom were
widens of Joseph Smith, and are probably
past tho lime of having children; but sup
po , ing him 'o have tliitly w h are capable
of having issue which is behW the true
n unl.cr; the twenty-two children would
he less than one child to a concubine.
If each of these degraded females could
hn;e Ircn the honored wife of one hus
band, the aggregate number ofchildrcn,
according to the usual number of fi ur in
a family, would be one hundred and
iwcirty,' show ing a loss in population of
ninety. eight.
The children arc subject lo a frightful
;lc"ree of sicknesj and mortality. This
is The combined result of tho gross sensual
ity of parents, and want of care towards
llicir offspring. As a general rule, the
saintly pretenders take ns litlle care of their
wives" as of their children, and of both, less
linn a careful firmer in the States would
of his cattle ; and nowhere out or the 'Five
Points' in New York City can a more
filthy, miserable, neglected looking, and
disorderly rabble of children be found limn
in ihe streets of Great Salt Lake City.
The Governor ngnin, whose attention to
his multifarious family we are bound to
sjppojo greater thun the average, nflhrds
a fair illustration. He was twice lawfully
r.a. i ieJ, und has eight legitimate children,
who arc all living. He has had a large
number ofchildrcn by his concubines no
one knows how many it ia only known
that there nrc only twen'y-lwo surviving.

most ordinary observer, which tells ihe
story, if there were no other evidence on
the bubjeet. In most cases it is producing
premature old ago, and some have already
sunk into an early grave under an intol

the moment he makes up his mind to
bring one or more concubines into ihe
family, becomes always neglectful, and
in most cases abusive to his wife.'

iu the gloomiest pait of the road, he saw
a white figure emerge from a clump of

seized upon ihe brain of the unhappy youth
ai that moment.
The guests at the clergyman's house
heard terrific screams. Dreading some
Inge termination of the farce, they rush
