The great triumph is not so ' much a triumph for the ministers as ib is for the power of public opinion and the machinery of the constitution. Looking back into the history of this question it is impossible not to be 'impressed with the fa H that England is, above all things, well gov erned. The scandal will-now be removed thht arose in a mistaken policy, upheld by the whole people and endured through the languor of pub lie opinion. Bnt the mind and eonsoience of the ' people were at length aroused, and the fabric instantly fell. The Post says that the great debate must in crease the people's estimation of the. House of Peers. Their judgment furnishes addi tional proof of the utility of the Upper House. The second reading is but a preliminary to* moulding the bill into a form better- to satisfy tho nation. Au analysis of the vote in the House of Lords l?Bt nuht shows that the' Archbishop of Dublin and fifteen BiBhops voted against tho second reading, the Bishop of St. David's in favor, and tho other prelates abstained from voting.

Anumber of Spanish war vessels aro cruising in the Bay of I>ipe. It ia stated the Havana volunteers were alarmed at tho announcement that tho new Captain General Do Rodas would bring with him 2000 tj 4000 troops, and the consulting commit too of the Spanish Junta prevailed upon Acting Captuin-Goneral Espi-' "nar to telegraph to Madrid that more troops wero not noeded in th 3 land, as they feared De Rodas would uso the troops against the volun teers. Reply having been received that no more troop j would bo sent, the volunteers teoamo quiet again, and expect to bo able to foroo Do RpdaB into tho adoption of their programme or drive him from power before reinforcements can reach him. ] THE JTEG MO IN GEORGIA. Abxanta, June 22?The Supremo Court of Georgia, to-day, decided that the code of Georgia, adopted by the new constitution, for ever prohibits the marriage relation between white persons and persons of African desoent, and declares such marriages to bo null and void. The opinion says that thi* section of the code is not repealed by, nor is it inconsis tent with that part of the constitution which declares that the social status of the citizens shall never bo the subject of legislation. That clause of the constitution absolutely denies to the Legislature the power to pass laws in fu ture regulating the social status or compelling the two races to unite in social intercourse. As the laws then in existence allowed churches, for instance, to determine for themselves who shou'cl occupy their seats and whore they should sit, and permitted railroads and steam boat companies and 'hotel keopers to classify anl assign places to those using their accom modations eocording to social values and gride as they might think proper, the consti tution puts it be void tho power of the Legis lature even to enact any law compelling them to make difficult classifications or to group to gether in bocial intercourse thoso who do not recognize each other as social equals. As the social relations of citizens are not the proper subjects of legislation, the constitution has wisely pub the matter at rest by denying to the Legislature the power to repeal or enaeb laws on that subject.

I Mr?pjJmm Young on i lie Polygamy Oyucttion ?He Bt?yni ne lian a Uo*c.n or KMteen Women, ?Perhnpe a Jfew Mere" ?He Qlvetn the Boenelora * Little Ad. Ice. At a meeting held recently in the Taberna cle at Salt Lake City, Brigham Tonng delivered himeelf to the following effect : I have thought a gr?ai' many times I would like to tth tho mutera a question upon another subjcot entirely?that subject they are always thinking about--namely; plurality wives. I have thought a thousand times I would ask the fe.nale portion of our community whether, if It were left to their opinion, they would re tain the practice of this principle in our midst, or whether they would have it obliterated. I want to tell them a little about it?namely, it is a principle that always has existed and that always will. r look at new york. An argument used by men and women against piurn?ily of wives is, inat there are about as many nun as there are women. Sup pose that to he so. Aokupwledge that propo sition to be true, and say thut there are no more women than men, and that every man should have a wire. What of it ? Men wdl not bo righteous, and women are left to deso lation and destruction. Bead the statistics of such matters in our Ena tern cities. In New York, for instance, Irom eleven to fourteen thousand young women, from sixteen to twen ty-ope yearB of age, perish annually in the gutters, on the sidewalks, on door-steps, or in tue hovels around. This is no worse than it is iu other places where prostitution prevai's. Many would like to prostitnte the women of Utah, but I pray they may never be able to do it. bo taras the mere number ol wives is con cerned, I do not care whether I have one, a dozen, or forty. HE THINKS HE HAS A DOZEN OR FIFTEEN WIVES. A great many ask me- how many wives I have, bnt to tell the honest truth 1 never thought enough nbout.it to stop and think. But 1 will get up the facts of the case and toil everybody so that they may atop asking me those questions. 1 suppose 1 have a dozen or ?tlcen that I am taking care oi; perhaps a low more, I do not know, and I car? nothing about it. 1 try to do good, and try to Bavo the peo ple and I say do-aot lot a lady come to de struction. It is grievous to mo to think that, right in this city, ttiero should bo'am neoessi tv <or ladies to marry wicked men, which they would not do it the ' Mormon" elders would do their duty. It Icoks as though our young men are indolent and slothful and do not under stand the principles of life. As an excuse, however, they will say, "My de?r friend and Brother Brigham, I cannot get married; why, it' 1 get me a wife she wau.ts a carriage to ride in, a In re.I girl to wait upon her, and a piano iu the parlor to thump upon wheu she pleases, and I cannot sustain it." I am sorry to say there is too much truth m this. Now, you youug wpmenj tell the young men you will work and help them to live; tell them so that they may marry you. SOMETHING wb0no somewhere. There aro a great many single men in our midBt who ougut to havo wives, and a great many young women who ought to have husbands. There is a radical wrong somewhere. Young man, go and get you a partner; get you a little house, then- plant out your Buade trees and fruit trees. Land is plenty here, you can Ret-it "without money and without price." You have the privilege now, if you are a citizen ot tn*> United states, of taking up one hundred and sixty acres, anu it will only cost you ten or flfceeu dollars. * Can -not you get a Imme? Yes, you can, right hero m-tho midst of the saints. Then go and do it, and' " .neglect the first commandment given I and Eve?to repleaish, subdue and ' ?artb WHAT SHALL BE DONE ? Now, Bieters, what shall we do ? Shall wo take more wires than one, or shall we not ? IC?j wo do not it will, not help the easo with tnose who do not take any; thoy will not get any be cause we have only one, and we should Eeo hundreds and thousand* of our females with no hQirte, nobody to protect them, nobody that they can call husband, and they would wander off. Shall we do this or not? If the mon will be righteous, all will be right. A CHALLENGE TO THE YANKEES. They havo said a great deal in Washington with regard to our having more wives thau one. 1 havo said in public, and havo written, that if they will cease their wickedness, and each one get a who nod be true to her and strictly virtuous, and theo will cause tbe nation to take the same course, we will submit, to then wishes aod will havo but one wi?o. Hero is a bargain?it you will hwa no more than ouo woman we will not. But the thing is here? tney want women, but no wives. Wo take many women, but wo make wives and mothers of them and they aro not cast off; and their Children havo tho pnvilese of bearing the names of their fathers instead of being cast off. 1 say God will clamu the man and the nation that will act so; GoJ will damn tho nation in which women, with no arm to shield and pro tect them, arc seduced and left to moum over their lost, fallen and degraded condition. GoJ bless you. Amen. A VOICE EEO M AFRICA. Advice to tbe Colored People of the South. Monrovia, Liberia, January 3,1880.?I luve lived now m this home of th? A Trie in nearly twenty years; but I h ive not forgotten the old Heenes in Virginia, nor tho kindness or many white friends in former days. I wish it was in my power to return for a time, that my voice might be hoard by my colored brethren of the Southern States. I a vi anxiius for their fate. As I sit here, on tho shores of this continent filled with a native black population, and look across the gr9at waters over your continent filled with white men, I cannot but bo fearful in regard to the future of tho few millions of people ol my own blood in the * Konth, now left to their own resources. I see a tide of white men pouring over those holds which bave heretofore fed them ; a tide coming from the overflowing pop ulation of the Northern Htate s and Europe, f remember bow that tide, when slow and feeble, swept off the native Indians; aod now, as it rushes in its might, what is to shield the trans planted African from its waves ? I can think of but, one hope for him. If. as a body, the colored people of the South shall identity themselves with tho white peo ple who now occupy and hold the soil, gain their affection and confidence, and become use ful members oi their communities, they may float above tbe torrent and still dwell in peace among tho a sociutions of the past; otherwise they must, in tho lapse of years, bu mined be neath it, or washed, like drift-wood, into tbe burning zone around the Bquator. And.yet tho occasional letters and paoera we reoeive here Irom tbe United Statos toll us that politi cal demagogues from the North, pedd.ing poli tics for their own profit, aro exciting our raoo to hostility towards tho wh tea. If they shall become tho dupes of euch emissaries their fate .is sealed. Tho scattered whito men on this con tinent of Africa might as well array themselves against the native tribes of black men, with tue. expectation of mooting anything but des truction iu tne pursuit ot suoh folly. I fco) some confidence that the naoro intelligent portion ot the people of color will not bo led astray by adventurers who will use them while they reap any personal profit from pretended friend ship, and dosort them when they please. But the mass have not had time to learn lessons, of political wisdom, and the prospect fills me with sadnoHs. If T c .ula but make them hear me, 1 would appeal to them to m nie common cause with the white people of t heir own laud, to take advice and counsel from such mon as have been known to them through iheir lives for their high character and honesty aod intel ligence, to seafe the welfare of the peoplo on whom they must depend through all time for. their own prosperity, tc do no act which shall give to tbe white population, just Cause for en mity, and thus identif>ing themselves with the ootnmumties in which they dwell, obtain for themselves the moat powerful of allies in tbe struggle against those forces which threaten their very existence. Say this much to them for me. S. W. W. ?The Archbishop of York, at a recent moot ing at 8h?moid, remiudeu the etergy of- the Church of England that they, had no business to mix tbeotaelTOs up with the disestablish ment diHOtissions.-. and that ' whatever may bo the issue of this contest they havo to deal only with the everlasting Church oi Christ. l OJi?lGN MISCMLLAJNr. ?An innovation in Paris ib dancing parties at three o'clock in the afternoon. ?Franco hna appointed a Consul to Mexico, which is the first step lowarda recognition of the Juarez government. ?Tbe application of electricity to organ key boards enables a cleigyman in England to draw the salary of the organist in addition to his own.

Prince Frederick, tho heir apparent to the Brown ot Denmark, is to marry the Princess Lo?isa, tho only child of the King of Sweden, and heiress presumptive to hia crown: The Prince is twenty-six rears of age and the Princess nearly eighteen. Upon the death ot tho reigninq mouarchs of the two kingdoms, tho crowns will probably bo united. Bat as the King of Denmark is only fifty one, and tho King of Sweden only forty-three, it may be a good many years befjrp tbie consum mation can be reached. ?A Mr. Malketb, Bays a French paper, who rocontly died m Bogland^ followed for thirty five years the profession of "fourteenth at table."by which he amassed a fortune of ?20,-' 000. It' Hooma that, irreproachably dressed, it was his wont to present himseif in clue time at the houses where there was a good table, and to inquire whether, thirteen persons being assembled, hia presence a as desired.

At Vienna, too, tho Mahometan Princo vas as warmly received as tho beat Catholic of them all. The new grand opera, opened at the close of last month, uo doubt afforded him pleasure in a moderato way, es pecially as the stage contains ample scope for tho most complicated bUlets. A desiro to se cure the neutralization of tho Isthmus of Suez Canal, is given as tho chief object of the Vice roy's jourueyings. If half the invitations to the opening are accepted, Egypt will contain more sovereigns at a time than a?iy other country has done in the present century. ?A cuiious exhibition in London iB a com pany of train3d acrobatic fleas. They draw lit tle vehicles and turn wheels, but they seem to do it under a uniform feeling of disturbance and apprehension, which is sufficient to occa sion the motions which produoo tho dosircd cttoct. The needed irritation id produced by a certain motiou of tho hand of tho proprietor of the fleas. They are accustomed to food of his hands?that is, to suck hia blood every morn ing, but they do not seem to be greatly im bued with confidence in him, and when ho puts hi? hand near them they go into ecalaciea of fright, which suffico to produce tho effects which the public admire. The fleas take a very short time to train, and they live nine months. Every night they are put to sleep in wool, unless one of them requires punishment, in which case he is tied to a post, and has to walk round it like a mill-horse. This tying is one of the greatest wonders of the exhibition. Tho fleas are all tied for the purposes of their worlc round the thin part of their bodies. They. are tied with fine, ha ire or lengths of spun glas?. They do not jump except when trouble some. Probably, like many humans, they have had all the jump taken out of them by the tardais of lifo. ?There will be an opposition party ip the new French Chambers which wiU number 10O, which will completely change the charactor of the Chamber.

The can didates of the opposition received in Paris in 1852, 83,101 votes; in 1857, 101.207 votos; in 1883. 149 400 votes. In 1853, no le3S than 5,300,000 votes were cast for official candidates throughout France, and only 1 800,000 votes ware given for opposition candidates; in 18C9, 4 000.000 votes were givon for official oaudi dates and 8,200 000 wore givon opposition can didates. The government majority which in 18G3 was half a million votes more than the whole number of votes cast In its favor in 1860, being 3 600,000, has fallen to only 800,000 votes; in other word3, 2,30d,000 voters who wore supporters have become opponents of the government. Tho rejection of Mi Eoiile Oli vier is indicative of the absence of political in telligence oh. tho part of ihoso people.

Remarkable Admlailonifroma Leading Party Organ. The Nation (Radical,) one of the most can did and thoughtful journals of the party in power, In its last issue, uses the following lan guage: It sesms not at all likely that we Bball witness something of the same kind during the coming fall. It is casting no extraordinary discredit on the Republican party to Bay that ever sinco 1865 it has beeu losing its bold on the popular tffeoiion. It had a very difficult woik to do in reconstruction, md one for which the ex perience of tho war had hardly tilted its leaders, and which, from its v> ry nature was sure to damage tho reputation of any party which un dertook it. It was enabled to carry it out suc cessfully solely owing to Andrew Johnson's folly and the. youth's obstinacy aud stu pidity. How fleep'y the leaders' felt the im portance of Johnson's folly to the party was well shown by the frantic effort?? made by them and bt the party papers to magnify his "crimes" and ? ..e gravity of the impeachment trial. In add: ;on to this, the party him had the spending f- r eight years of enormous sums of money, and '?as keen forced to collect aud disburse it without any adequate administra tive machinery. The consequence, and the in evitable consequence, has been not only that the party has has had to shoulder tho respon sibility of Treat abuses, but lias had to wituesp^. tho accession to its ranks of a prodigious num-j I ber of knaves and adventurers, and to boar tho burden of their 11 loynhy" and "soundness" while entirely unable to put a stop to their plundering aud peculating. Souro allowance, loo, io investigating the cause of tho decline of the party in popular estimation, must, of course, bo made for the weariness of any party which has been long in power which inevitably comes over tho public before many- years. Many people forget the misdeeds of the oppo sition, are constantly fretted by the faults of tho administration, and gradually worked them selves first into a belief that any change would be lor tho better, and then into a d?ter mination to have a change of sonic kind ut any cost. The party was. therefore, in a Bomcwhat srrry plight at the approach of the Presiden tial election; and if it bad made up its mind to. discard Grant, and Democrats had. n ado up their muids to take Chase there is, we believe, little doubt in tho minds of sareful observers that ir . oukl have gone to pieced. Hero the lolly of tho opposition, combined with the en ergotic action of tho sensible men at the Chica go Convention, postponed tho evil day. As it was, Grant may bo Baid to bavo achieved a re spectable victory only by tho peculiarities of tho eleotive mjchiuery. Had he boon depen dent on a direct popular vote, ho w vu!d have barely ot-caped defeat. The history of his ad ministration thus far has certainly not been of a character to give the party a new hold on the popular confidence. Indeed, its warmest friends have been forced almost from the first to act on the detonsivo?to devote thc-maolvcs, in lact, mainly to tho work of proving, not that it has established new claims to' popular grati tude, but. that it-has done nothing to earn popular dinti ust. It is not at all surprising, therefore} that the hack politicians, whoso presence in Us ranks and use of its machinery as their own ends havo brought so much discr?dit on it, BiMiild once more begin to fed anxious, and cast about for some means of rekindling the popular enthUi asm in its behalf, or procuring a renewal of .ta ljase of power. THE LILLIPUTIANS. A Notable Marriage in Connecticut? Commodore Sntt and Minnie Warren. The New Haven Palladium, of Friday, says : General Tom Thumb (Mr. Charles S. Strat ton> and wito arrived iu town by the 2:30 o clock, A. M. train of the Shore Line Road yesterday. Tbey took a carriage and pro ceeded io the residence of tho General's moth er, in West Haven, where they are to remain several days on a visit. Yesterday afternoon the little couple came up to the city and made several purchases, and about six o'clock re turned to West Haven in tho horse cars. Quite a crowd assembled at the corner of Church and and Chapel-streets, and looked with curiosity at tho woe m in and his wee wile. Commodore Nutt and Miss Minnie Warren are also at Mis. Stratton'a, and wc are happy to atate that Mies Minnie has become Mrs. Commodore Nutt. The Journal of the same date gives the fol lowing particulars : On Wednesday Mr. Lewis Dinger and Miss Ella P. Anthony wore united as man and wife in the Episcopal Church in Birmingham, the Rev. Dr. xuller officiating. Tho fair bride was attired in a tasty gray-coiored drcBS, with hat, gloves and bootbes to match. Among thoso present attho church, in full dress, wero Gcno ral Ihomas Thumb and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Rovftl N Bassett, Mr and Mrs. O. B. Gray, of New York, Misses Rassoit and Smith, of this city.

Bassett, where a very elegant spread of refreshments were served by ?lrs. Bassett. The affair was a most happy one, aiid we congratulate all parties on its comploto success in every particular. The Peace Jubilee?Closing Sc?nes,?A telegram lrom Boston, dated Juno 19, says: The closing performance of the National Peace Jubilee was given to-day by ir m 7000 to 9000 school children, attracting a large atd de lighted audience. Olo Cull performed a solo, Parepa Rosa ni.d Adel?de Phillips sarg a duet, and other pieces were given, all of which vtie encored. Tho closing pie20, "Tho Ono Hun dreth Psalm," was Bung by the cbildten, the audience joining. Several children, overcome by the heat and excitement, fainted during tho concei t, but they received immediate attention and sustained no serious injury. 1 he members of the orchestra presented Mr. Gilmoro with a gold watch aud cLniin. Another dispatch says: Tho dust in tbe neighborhood of the Colise um is six inches, deep, and ibout 04 o'clock a sudden gust of wind caused the vast throng of persons there asse 'bled to look as if they had just come out of a flour mill. Tho exclamations of the richly diessed ladies may better bo im agined than described. Borne of them were to be found neither in Lord Chesterfield's Code nor in tbe Bible I All sorts of tour wheeled vehicles are press ed into service as temporary stage coaches. Common wagons with settees placed in them, old express wagons with canvas cops, arid even ! butcher catty, go aboat with painted signs on tbeii sides. Ono of thone last was suddenly stopped by the pohco this afternoon as ono of the hind wheels was about to break. It had no sooner been brought loa standstill than orish went the wheol, and a shriek ascended in chorus from tbe ladies jnsido?not a ol.orns of jubiler?, this time, however, Fortuur.toly, no one was injured.
