A squall, as sudden as it was tui rifle, struck our craft just a Captain Casha placed his foot on the deck, and

she was instantly capsized.

Our crew, amounting to tweuty-fuiir, were all on deck at the time—with the exception of two, who were drown

Doubts have been expressed at various times as to the complete success of the euterpri.se. A number of German professors, as well as travelers in the East, have positively asserted that it was a sham work. Great enterprises like this have always been more or less disparaged. Thc project of steam navigation on thc Atlantic was decried as impracticable, and its failure predicted. The Pacific Railway did not escape similar adimadversions.

You. in your ignorance, condemn the man because he is a polygamist. Ts polygamy wrong? No, it is not. Show me in your own Bible, yes, turn to the page if you can that contains one word I agaiust polygamy uttered by Christ ..•• and the prophets iu an age when every man was a polygamist. say you can not.
