Sa A REMEDY FoR MogMonisu.—The Repud- fican party at its birth threatened to those twin relics of barbariem, “slavery and polygamy.” By the sword, at a cost of thou- sands of lives and millions of dollars, siavery is gore,—but polygamy remains. Now a Temedy is proposed by a Texas Republican, and here itis from Flake's Balletin “OT course the immoral practice of the Mormcn Bluebeards are a grea: ecandal tojour civilizs.tien,; but so is the debauchery of all ou large c tes and towne.

A death ocenrred in Brooklyn jJast week from the use, accidental or other- wise, of the same subst: Many of the greens used by the pamter are composea of prepfrations of copper or arsenic, and are exe tremely poisonous. Some other celors are aleo equally dangerous, and the same objection that exists {to the careless and unrestricted sale of poisons in a drug store, will apply to the sale of these dangerous paints. Th: a of Health should take these matters up, and imstitute proper regulations for the public Safety. Those paints that may be used to de- Stroy life should be sold only om the order of some responsible persen. At present any child can get possession of these deadly poisons, and make such use of them as it leases. 1t would be well for parents and others to remember that many paints, es- pecially the greens, are among the most dan- gerous and fatal of poisons.—N.
