V. RQ8KWATr.it, Publisher Amotiu'.r absurd dispatch reaches ui by cabto from Madrid. Iln nutlior Intimates that President Cantcllitr contemplated n coup d edit in enso a majority of the Cortes (should vote him out of power. Wo npprebond Castcllnr is too much of a true He publican to attempt a forcible over throw or frco government. In nil probability thU sensational telegram will bo contradicted within tho nest twonty-four hours. Mr. Wm. OrtTOK, in bchall ol the Western Union telegraph monopoly, tells Postmaster General Creswcll what ho knows about tho history ol tho Pacific tolegrnph lino from Oma ha to San Francisco. Mr. Orton as erls that tho ? 100,000 subsidy paid by tho Government for tho encour agement of tho enterprise was nioro than counterbalanced in dollars and cents by tho tolegrams transmitted freo of cliargo by tin Government over that line. If Mr. Or ton was disponed to tell nil tho fact in connection with the Pacific tolegraph, ho would exhibit one of tho most stupendous frauds ever perpetrated upon a liberal gov ernment. Ho would tell tho PobI master General how tho charter of tlm concern was systematically vio lated in letter and in spirit, rfind how both the peoplo and tho Government wero subjected to a ecries of unmiti gated impositions. THE MILITIA BUSINESS. In times of peaco prepare for w.-r is evidently tho maxim that guides Governor Furnas in his recent warn like preparations. Whon tho Gov ernor appointed his first Adjutant General wo wero disposed to look upon tho exercise of this higher law function as a matter of mere con venience Tho privato secretary of Hit Excellency was a very proper person for such a position, inasmuch as his constant presence at the Stato capital enables him to attend to any requisition for arms or munitions of war in cases ot extraordinary emor gency. When apprised of the ap polntment of a second Adjutant Gen eral, at Schuyler, wo wero disponed to ridlctilo tho performance). Now, that wo aro assured that tho Governor hus gone into tho whole sale commission business, wo aro be ginning to look upon this sudden manufacturo of generals, colonels, aud majors, from n moro serious stand-point. According to the Bea trice Express, II. W. Parker, Esq., of that city, has rccrdyod a brigadior- gcnoral's commission, with tho title of Englnecr-insChief of tho Stato militia, and tho Omahu Republican informs us that Mr. E. T. Test, of this city, holds another brigadier's com mission as quartermaster-general, while Dr. Wilkinson, of Dakota City, has been dubbed a Burgeon-general. Now what docs all this mean ? Whcro docs tho Govornor derive his authority for issuing these commis sions? Why does ho Issue them at a tlmo of prolound posco ? llcfoio en tering upon any argument touching the legality of theso commissions wo must assume that tho Governor ol this Stato is to bo guided und con trolled in all his actions by tho con stitution and lawsof this State, which aro the foundation of all his powers and prerogatives. Tho Constitution of this Stato makes tho Governor tho Comin&uder-in-Chicf of tho military and naval forces of tho Stato. On tho other hand, tho constitution clothes tho Legislature with tho solo' power to organize tho militia and provido for tholr government. Sec tion 20, article Legislature, reads as follows: "The Legislative shall de termino what pcrsonsshall constitute tho militia of tho State, aud may provido for organizing and disciplin ing tho samo in such maimer n shall bo prescribed by law." In othor words, tho Legislature shall framo the laws for tho organization of mil itia, and tho Govornor shall oxecuto theso laws. Now, tho only provis ions mado by tho Lcgislr.tmo for tho organizitlon of militia, will bo found upon pages -170, 71 and 72, of tho erised statutes. That act is sub stantially as follows: Section 1 designates tho persons 11 ablotomlliliaduty. Section 2 declares that tho' Governor, as Commanders lu-Chiet of tho militia, may order ut tb Militia in ease of Imurrco- tion, iuvution or war. Section 3 au thoiizos tho Governor to order out militia by companies, or by counties, but Instructs him to bavo duo regard lo sparsely settled fronlior counties, whoso militia men shall not be called awuy from their own counties, except when de manded by imperative uccosilty. Section 4 authorize tho organization of Independent militia companies, whoso officers shall bo elected by the membors of such companies and com missioned by tho Governor. Section G authorizes tho Governor to nrm, equip and organizo the militia when in his judgment ho shall deem It necessary for tho protection of the citizens thereof. Section G authorizes the Governor to appoint and commission all militia officers whose election is not provido'd for. WhlU this provision might techni cally be construed as sufficient au thority for tho appointment of Aids- dcCamp, Quartermaster nnd Surgeon Generals, Engincera-in-Chief, IJriga dier and Mnjor Generals ad libitum. Wo boliovojthe spirit, if not the letter of tho law, contemplates no such ap pointments except in times of threat ened or actual invasion or insurrec tion. Does Governor Furnas pretend that such an emergency exists or is likely to occur during his present term of office? Why then-strotch the authority of tho law to such an extent? It may bo argued that thcro is no harm in all this warlike trumpery, but wo argtio that Nebraska is loss In want of all thcao fus and feather holiday officers than sho was at any timo during her history. Sho never did enjoy tho protection of an Engineer in Chiof, and still sho nourished. She novcr had n Surgeon-General t feel her pulso and inspect her tongue, but thank God sho still survives. Sho novcr did liavo a Quartormastcr Gen eral, but by the blessings of l'rovl denco sho still manages to provide her sons and daughters with abun dant and wholesome food and decent garmenti. Wo would say in all can dor to tho Governor that, in our humblo judgment, ho can gain de cidedly moro icspoct and confidence by acting as a patron of peaco than by exorcising questionable functions as a war Governor. AMONG THE MORMONS. What a Gentilo Knows About the Young Family. C.rrospondonco ol tho Dee. OaDBN, January 1, 1874. Editor Omaiia Disk: A few items from this outpost of Latter Day Saintdom may not bo un interesting to your readors. Thcro has been quite a stir hero lately, in n quiet way, concerning the expected legislation in Congress in regard to poligamy ; and although thoy aro like tho old man and his wi(o, who, going fo law in a certain case, used to talk it over at homo "o nights," and get the case every time; yet they secretly fear that they will como out as this samo man and wllo did in their case; they fear that tho law yers wont do as they (tho Mormons) desire. The arguments used by the Mormons when thoy aro conversing to tho .ithfulare very falacious to ono who don't bolievo in n divino rcvclutiou to Joseph Smith. One great argument thoy uso against any intorforenco of tho United States with their peculiar institutions is that poligamy existed before Utah belonged to tho United States. Perhaps this may bo true, but when they camo under tho U. S. laws that fact would not rcleaso them from obeying all laws thus on tho statute book until their repeal. They also forget that they, tho Mormons, went iuto Moxico and established n gov ernment, nnd foreign to that of the country thoy then lived in, and at varionco with it irt overy particular and acknowledging no alleicauco to it at all. In other words, thoy stole the land of another country aim then complain that they aro misused by the government that buys tho correct title from tho real owner of tho coun try thoy then livo in. A case of peculiar hardship under the workings of their polygamous practices has just become, in a meas ure, tho property of tho public, and it will not fail to interest your read ers, as showing what a, woman will bear from hor lovo to a so-called re ligion. Mr. John W. Young, son of President Drigham Young, Had two wives (?). Tho first had bomo him three children, tho second two chil dren. About this timo ho went east on n visit with several of tho prominent Mormons. Whilo tliero ho becarao acquainted with n cousin of tho second wifo from Elkton, 'Intl., aud mado himself so agrecablo that sho "left all and fol lowed him." This lady was then a married woman, though not living with her husband. (She lived with her husband only about a week whon, from some incompatibility of temper, sho took horeelf away). It is believed by thoso conversant with tho facts that this lady from tho first deter mined to follow out tho plan which has just been consummated. About a month after tho party reached Salt Lako this lady, now Mrs. John W. Young, (3rd) was divorced from her first husband and then married to Mr. Young, according to tho rites of tho Mormon church. Hero begins tho trouble. She refused to marry Mr. Y. unless ho would divorce tho other two wives, and he, infatuated with a now faco, did so, although as yot ho has not ceased to provido for thorn and their children; but a wo man who can accomplish so much can compass even this. What makes tho cape one of peculiar hardship is the fuel that tho wlfo who hus turned tho others out of doors, as it were, is an own cousin to tho second wife, their name being Canfield, Tho sec ond wlfu's nauio is Lucy aud tho third Lizzie. Supposing this, caso wore to come into court before an unbiased Jury, M9UMP lioW long wovld it bo before Mr. Ynunj would bo looking out from behind tho bars of a prison? and tho world at largo would say, "served him right." To mako tho matter more bi'tdlng, tho third wlfo, during n visit East not long since, bound her husbind to co through another cer emony according to tho laws of tho United States, showing clearly that her design was to cut ofTtho children of tho first two wives front any sharo in tho estato of their fathor In case of Ills death. This, tho true sido of tho picture, reduces tho pleasing romance which somo Eastern paper huvo been speeding over tho country concerning this case, lo something very liko tragedy, lor In tho true picturo are shown somo of tho worst traits of character that a woman can possess. Yet when was tho world any dlller ent? Even tho last wlfo of David played tho same gamo on her less favored companion, aud so gave her sou tho crown of Judah. Tho Mormons of to-day aro n peoplo of progress, as may bo shown in their numerous schools, &c. That they aro a body sepcrato nnd looking out ror their own intcrsis to mo exclus ion of others. Is n truth that cannot bo denied. Thoy havo somo good traits in this connection, though; they look after their poor, at least so far as to keep them from Buffering; but tho inevitable "tithing" comes into tho account, oven in tho poorest house. If u iM)or man cams 20 cents a day, two of that must qo to tho tithing offico. Prominent Mormons say that tho women aro tho strongest advocates of polygamy, even going so far as to urge upon tholr husbands to take other wives, aud thoso raised in tho east among religious peoplo are said lo bo tho most strenuous in this mat ter. Ono woman in particular, said to bo a very nice, puro lady, said: "If I had known boforo I left En gland, that tho Mormons mado so much of polygamy, I would never have joined them; but sinco I have learned their doctrines and principles, I would not 11 vo with n man who did not preacli it." This goes to show that there aro many sincere people among them. Doubtless, many of them aro filled with tho spirit of the religion whilo holding principles of faith entirely opposed to all revealed religion and tho practice of nearly tho whole civilized world. Ono great argument used by tho Mormons is that they marry numer ous wives to proventprostitution; but legalized prostitution is very little better thau any other. Tho Mor mons aro wio in ono partiuulir; thoy all, young and old, join in their amusements. Dancing is with them a favorite amusement, and the gray haired men and women seem to dolight in il as much as the children, What would Omaha belles and beaux think of opening ono of their "Social" or "Pleasant ilours" with a prayer to God to keep them from sin and bless tho dance to their physical and spiritual good. I think many would stay awny till after tho open ing p'rayor; but it is not so with theso people, who havo such a strange mixture of tho sublimy, and ridicus lous in all their belief. They require no proof of it wbh to livo a pure life as a condition of church member ship. If nny one expresses a wish to pas through tho ordeal they feel that thoy cannot rcfuso to revive him. Of course such a ono will bo cut oil from tho church unless they behave satisfactorily. I may givo you other items in futuro as thoy come to my knowledge. Yours Truly, Sigma. MATRIMONIALITIES. Mariago announcements appear as "attachment notices" in an Ohio pa per. Kcv. Dr. Tiffany celebrated his sil ver wedding at Washington on Fri day. " Tho sitting-room of nn Indianapo lis couplo is adorned with four di vorces handsomely framed. A happy couplo living at Adams, N. Y., liavo beon married over sov-cnty-four years. How to becomo practically ac quainted with "tho "Ilulo of Thrco" Livo with you wife, mother, and raother-in-lnw. A romantic runaway match was consupimalod by a marrlngo at S o'clock in the morning on S.ttuiday last in Burlington. Tho parties were from Illinois. Tho feto of St. Catharino was re cently obsorvod with much spirit in Franco. Tho saint is prayoa to by young girls who deslro to be speedily married. A Potrolia parson was marrying a couplo recently when a dog fight in terfered, and tho brido called out, "Drivo ahead; tho yaller pup has hint by tho fore-paw." A Mrs. Pleasant, of Fort Laramie, has sued a papor for saying that sho has murdered three husbands, when tho fact is sho hasn't murdered but two, tho third ono getting awny with n broken rib. An Ohio wifo demands a divorce upon tho specification thnt upon ono occasion her husband "put her to soak in tho rain water barrel. " Lieutenant W. II. Iteeder, of Mus catine, ot tho United States Navy, was married at Villcfninche, France, Hon tho 29th ultimo, to Miss Wells, daughter of Captain Wells, of tho United States sloop of war Shenan doah. The corcmony was performed on board tho Shenandoah. A questionable story, but told with grftvo circumstantiality, was pub lished in tho Cohoctou 'Jribune, as oc currlni' at Wullace, Steuben county, on tho Erioltuilroad. Tho substance of tho talo is that a-short timo sinco au oldorly female, sister of Elder Perrjr, of Wallaco, arrived in' that place, niul wltlilu a week or two en snared tho affections of a mourning widower, nnd a marrlngo ensued. After two weeks ot honoymoon tho now' wifu wanted money to visit hor old homo in Pennsylvania. Tho funds wore forthcoming, nnd tho gal lant husband accompanied her to the train. Just as tho cais wero about to start sho coolly informed him that sho had a husband nnd family in Pennsylvania, had been out on a littlo b'gamUt spree, but had determined to return to her legitimate llego; then bidding him an affectionate good-bye, she was pon whirling away to her family, in a quiot, country spot in Pennsylvania, whoro no rumor of this singular episode will probably over mob, Mmb "Yes, I am married: I hao had sixteen children, mill I know my business," was tho reply of a colored woman to n question at tho Peoria Pol I co Court tho othar morning. His Honor thought sho did. Statistics presented to theJFrench Academy show that tho marriages of blood relations form about two per cent, of all tho marriages in France, and that tho deaf aud dumb nil spring, nt birth of consanguineous marriage", are, in proportion to tho deaf and dumb born inordinary wed lock nt Lyons, full 25 per cent.; at least 25 prr cent, in Paris, and !I0 per cent, in Ilordeaux tho propor tions of deaf and dumb, by birth, in creasing with the dogreo of blood re lationslup. llie uata obtained snowed that, if tho danger of having a deaf and dumb child in ordinary mar riage, represented by fig in cm, is one, thero will bo 18 in marriages be tween first cousins. 37 in marrioges between uncles and nieces, and 70 in marriages between nephews and aunts. It appears, too, that tho most healthy parents, if related in blood, may havo deaf and dumb children; whilo deaf and dumb par ents, If not related, very raroly havo deaf and dumb children. RELIGIOUS. Duluth has a Catholic priest who used bo a missionary in Northern Alaska. Uellovillo, 111., has invited llov. Dr. Untumnud to try nnd convert it. Fourteen spiritual mediums aro holding circles nt Tcrro Haute, Iud. Church property in Now York is valued at 41U.0U0.00U. Tlio church buildings of various denominations number 358. A Suit lako paper says that tho last band of Mormon missionaries arrived at tbo Sandwich Islands on tho 20th ult. A petition, addressed to tho Con- ttitutional Convention of tho State, anl praying for the insertion in the organic law of n chiuso provining tor religious instruction in tlio common schols, is receiving signatures in Ohio. Mrs. Phojbo llannaford, of Now Haven, has accepted a call to the Universalist pulpit in Jersey City. Sho Is a reverend of a half-dozen years' standing and qui to popular in that denomination. Itev. W. II. Milburn, tho blind preacher, is visitimr lloston. He used to talk entertainingly about wuat a nana roan saw. llo sliould tell how n blind preacher feels.

Thcro is a mis take somewhere. EobeitC. Col Iyer has it from tho best authority that Abraham Lincoln had como to -doubt about tho very foundations of religion until reading tlio works of Thcodoro Parker and Dr. Channing. He confessed that these gavo him more light nnd satis faction thau ho over obtained fiom nil other sources, aud on them ho based whatever relii'iniia hollff ho had in the last years of hislilo.
