CONGRESSIONAL. <> In THE SEWATE ner oF Mr. Hale called up the bill to repeal the first section of joint recolution ot February 21, 183!, for the transfer of persons from the military to the naval service; which was passed. The Senate then proceeded to the considera- tion of the joint resolution amending the Uon- “tir Saulsbury proposed length: dment T. Sanisbu: igthy amendments asa snbetinute.eecuring the liberty of the press. and free speech, and re-establishing the pringi. ples Shara Missouri compromise; which were Tejected. r. Sumner withdrew his amendménts, here- totore offered asa substitute, as he did not desire the committee’s amendment in its passage. ‘The amendments, as reported from the Com- mittee on the Judic: &s a substitute for the original bill of Mr. Henderson, were then adopted by a vote of 38 one to 6 nays, The following is the joint resolution as passed: Jomnt RESOLUTION proposing, Amendments to the Constitution of the United States, and sub- mitting to the Legislatures of the several States a proposition to amend the Constitution ot the United States. Be it resolved by the Senate and House of Repre- sentatives in Congress assembled, (two thirds of both Houses concurring,) That the following article be proposed to the Legislatures of the several States as an amendment to the Consti- tation of the United Statez, which, when ratitied by three fourths of said Legislatares, shall be yalid, to all intenta and purposes, as a part of the said Constitution, namely: ARTICLE XII1.—Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punish- ment fcr crime, whereot the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their Jurisdiction. Sec. 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation. In THE House— The Senate bill extending the time for Siates to accept grants ot lands for agricultural and mechanic colleges was passed, with an amend- ment extending the provisions of the bill to the State of West Virginia. The House went into a Commitiee of the Whole on the State of the Union on the Presi. dents annual message, when Messrs. Long, Garfield and others addressed the House. ——_—_+ 202 , AMONG THE MORMONS. The following extracts are made from 8 nar rative in the last mumber of the Atlintic Monthly: Sometimes we passed a fence which guarded three houses instead ot one. Abundant pro- geny played at their do rs, or rolled in their yard, watched by several unkempt, bedraggied Toothers owning & commen husband; aad we could easily understand how neither of these should feel muctr interest in the looks of a demesne held sy them ia such unhappy part- nership, The humblest New England cottage has its climbing flowers at the door post, or its egardeu bed in front; but how quickly wouid these wither if the neat, brisk house-mistrass owned her husband in common with Mrs. Dea- con Pratt next door! The first Mormon household I ever visited belonged to a@ son of the famous Heber Kimball, Brigham Young’s most devoted follower, and next before we entered Salt Lake, situaied at the bottom to him in tke Presidency. It was the last stage station but one of a green valley in Parley’s Canon (named after the celebrated Elder, Parley Pratt;) and as it looked like the residence of 2 well-to-do farmer, I went in and asked tor a bow! of break and milk—the great- est possible luxury after a life ot bacon and salt-spring water, such as we had been leading in the mountains. A fine looking, motherly woman, with a face of full character, gray- haired, and about sixty years old, rose promp - ly to graot my request, and while the horses ‘were changing, I had ample time to make the i it SeUPER Ie’ oh.

Green as I was tosaintly manners, I sup- posed that one of theze two youn mothers had Tun in trom aneighbor’s to compare tabies with the mistress of the house, after our Eastern fashion, universal with the owners of juvenile phenomena. When the old lady came back with the bread and milk, and both of the young cirls addressed her as “mother,” I was emboldened to tell her that her daughters had a pretty pair of children. hey are pretty,” said the old jady, demure- ly ut they are the children of my son;” then, as i| resolved to duck a Geatile heid and heels into Mormon realities at once, she added: “Those young ladies are the wives of my son, who is now gone ona mission to Liverpool— young Mr. Kimball, the son of Heber Kimball; and ] am Heber Kimball s wife.” A CONVERSATION WITH HEBER. One day in the opera house at Salt Lake, when the carpenters were laying the floor for the Fourth of July Eve ball, Heber and I got talking of the pot pouriof nationalities assem- bied in Utah. Heber waxed unctlonsly be- nevolent, and expressed his affection tor each succeeding 1ace as fast as mentioned. «I love the Danes dearly! I've got a Da- nish wife” Then turning toa rough-looking carpenter, hammering near him—* You know Christiny—eh, Brother Spudge ?” Ob, yes! I know her very well!” A moment after. ‘he Irish are dear peo- pie. My Imeh wife is among the best I’ve got.” Again—* I love the Germans! Gota Dutch wife 100! Know Katrine, Brother Spudge! Remember she couldn't scarcely talk a word o English when she come—eh, Brother Spndge!” Brother Spudge remembered—and Brother Heber continued to trot out the members of his marital stud for dicecussion oftheir poiuts with his more humble fellow-polygamist of the hammer; but when I happened to touch upon~ the earliest Mrs. Heber, whom I naturally though he would by this time regard as torgot- ten fossil in the lower Silurian strata of his connubial life, and referred to the interview I had enjoyed with her on the afternoon before entering ihe city, his whole manner changed to a proper husbandly dignity, and, without seeking corroboration from the carpenter, he repliedly gravely— Y me “Yes! that is my first wife, and the beat woman God ever made!” On the Fourth of July, Mr. Ludiow and his two Gentile friends attended the grand ball of the Saints. Afier describing the appearance of the streets, as the Saints flocked from the entire region roundabont to the holiday attractions of the city, Mr. Ludiow says :— A well-to-do Mormon ai the head of his wives and children, all of whom are probably eating candy as they march throngh the m tro- politan streets in soiid column, looks to the uninitiated like tbe principal of a female semi- nary weak in its deportment, taking out his charge for an airing. Last Fourth of July, it may be remembered, fell on a Saturday. - In their ambition to repro- duce ancient Judaism (and this ambition is the key to their whole puzzle) the Mormons are Sabbatarians of a strictness which would de- light Lord Shaftesbury. According, in order that their festivities might not encroach on the early hours of the Sabbath, they had the ball on the Fourth of July Eve, instead of th» night of the Fourth. I could not rvaliz3 the risk of such an encroachment when I read the follow- ing sentence priuted on my billet of invita ion - “ Dancing to commence at4p.m.”~ Bierstadt, myself, and three gentlemen of our parry, were the ouly Gentiles whom I fouad invited by President Young to meet in the neighborhood of three thousand saints Under these cireumatances I felt like the three thou. sand homeopathic dilution of monogamy.

You'll ali Be out here before done: x —— Riajoa’s gone forever. only makes matters worse. When your - try has become & desoiation, we, the ealuts, whom you castout, will forget all your sina against us and give you a home.” Heber Kimball informed the critic how the orthodox pumber of wives was to be obtained for these new converts. “ Why,” seid the old man, twinkling his little black eyes like a godly Silenus, and nursing one of his fat legs with a lickerish smile, “jsn't the Lord Atmighty providin’ for His beloved beritage jist as fast as He anyways kin? This war's & goin on till the biggest part o’ you male Gentiles hez killed each other off, then the little handful that’s left and comes a fleein’ t’ our asylum ’li bring all the women o’ the nation along with ‘em so we shall hey women enough to give every oneon ‘em them all they want, and bey a large balance left over to distribute round among God’s saints that hez been here from the beginuin’ o* the tribulation.” The sweet taste which this disabol: retlec- tion seemed to leave in Heber Kimball's mouth, made me long to kno. k him down worre than I had ever felt regarding either saint or sinner. But it is costly to emite an apostle of the Lord in Salt Lake City; and I merely retaliated by telling him I wished I could hear him say that in @ lecture room full of Sanitary Oommission ladies scraping lint for their husbands, sweet, hearts and brothers in the Union army. I didn't know whether saints made good lint, but L thought I knew one who'd scraped a little. Of the general of aspect of “the Ball” Mr. Ludlow writes: : Alter spending an hour in a circuit and sur- ey of the room as minute as was compatinle wun decency, I arrived at the following re- sults: There was very little ostentation in dress at the ball, but there was also very little taste in dressing. Patrician broadcloth and silk were the rare exceptions genera] \y ill. made and il!l- ‘worn, but they cordially associated with the great mass of plebian weed and calico. Few iadies wore jewelry or feathers. There were some pretty gitlssewimming aboutin matetul whip-syliabub of puffed tarietan. Where saincly gentiemen came with several wives, the oldest generally was the most elaborately dressed, and acted much like an Exstern chaperon toward her young sisters. (Wives of the same man habitually besister each oiher in Utah, Auother triumph of grace!) Among the men J saw some very strong aid capable faces; but the majority had not muco character in their looks,—indeed differed little in thas regard from any average crowd of meu anywhere. Among*the women, to my sur- prise, I found no really degraded face:, though many solid ones- only one deeply deiected. (this belonged to the wife of a hitherto meno- gamic husband, who had left her alone in the adress circle, while he was dancing with a cbubby young Mormoness, likely to be added to the family in a month or iwe) but many in aeeive ones; And though I saw muiticades of idly, good-tempered countensneces, and a score which would have been call. retty anywhere, 1 was obliged to confess, after a most impartial and anxious search, that I hid not met a single woman who looked high toned, first class, eapable of poetic enthusiasin or heroic self devotion; not a single woman whom an artist would @ream of and sk to sit for a study; not one to whom a finely constitu- ted intellectual man conld come for compan- sonsBip in his pursnits or sympatny in his yearnings.. Because I knew inat this verdiet would be received at the East with a+ Jusias you might have expected ! I cast aside every thing like prejudice, and forget that 1 was in Utah, as I treaded the great throng. THE TALK OF THE SAINTS. Men, every where, unfortunately, tend lidle toward the error of bashfulness in their cla’ among each other, but the mostof us at the East would feel that we were insulting the Jowest member of the demi mondz, if we uttered before her a single sentence of the talk which forms the habitual staple of ail Heber Kim- bali’s public sermons to the wives and daugn- ters who throng the Sunday Tabernacle. edither took & viyid interest in Bierstadt’s ‘own eternal welfare. He quite laid himself out for our conversion, coming to sit with us at breakfast in our Mormon hotel, dressed in a black swallow tail, buff vest, and a stupendous turncate cone of Leghorn, which made him look like an Italian mounts_ bank physician of the seventeenth cemtary. I have heard men who would misquote Scrip- ture for their own ends, and kalong while without saying anything: but he so far sur- passed in these particulars the loftiest effor within my former experience, that I coul think of no comparison for him but Jack Bun- sey taken to exhorting. e?
