The Mormon Utr RACES with great fury
A letter, dated Richmond, Oct. "a, written
by Judge King, says that on tho previous
Sunday the Mormons marched to Daviess-
Joe Smith made known his views to the peo-
pie, and declared the time had come when
they would avenge their own wrongs, that
all WHO were not for them, and would not
take arms with them, should be considered
as against them, that their property should
be coniiscated, and their lives also for
fciteG.
With this declaration, and much else said
by Smith, he calculated to excite the people
present-the next day was selected to luect
and see who was for and who against them,
and under such severe pepaltes that there
were none, | learn who did not turn out-and
about 3 or 400 men with Smith at their head
marched to Daviess. This was on Tuesday
the next day was the snow storm, and Oh
Thursday they commenced their ravages
upon the citizens, driving them from their
homes and taking their property. Between
20 and 100 men went to Gallatin, pllagl ing
houses, and the store of MIR. Smelling, and
the Post office, and then burnt the houses
They carried off the spoils OIL horseback and
in wagons, and now have them, understand
in store house near their camp. Houses
have been robbed of their contents-beds,
clothing. furniture, &c. and all deposited, and
they term it "a consecration to the Lord."-
At this time there is not citizen in Daviess
except Morlnons. Many have been driven
without warning, others have been allowed
few hours to start. The stock of the citi-
zcns have been seized upon, killed up and
salted by hundreds; from 80 to 100 way
ons arc now employed hauling in the corn
from the surrounding country. They look
for force against them, and are consequent
ly preparing for u siegc--bulding block
houses, &c.
A force Of 1000 men has been ordered to
be raised to march TO the relief Of the suffer
ing Inhabitants. The Governor has given
orders to have the disturbances quellcd, even
if it require determination.
