Bigamy. -- Wm. T. Cummings was brought before the Mayor on Saturday for committing bigamy in this city, in marrying Josephine Donella, having previously intermarried in Washington, D. C., with Sarah E. Holsworth. He was remanded for further trial.-- Laws, as well as people, "are various," because in Utah such an act would have recommended the prisoner to Brigham Young as an enterprising young man. Here enterprise of the sort is regarded in the light of an infraction of law, and the victim of ardor and susceptibility is at one fell swoop deprived of his privileges and made to suffer those pains and penalties which usually afflict the penitentially inclined.
