THE HISTORY OF THE NOR
MONS,

tits stated in London paper, that
number of Missionaries from the Nor
mons went over to England lately and
shat they are preaching their doctrines
with some considerable success. An En-
glish paper gives the following history Of
this remarkable sect, whichwill be read at
the present time, with much interest.
In the village Of Palmyra, in the wes-
tern part of the State of New York, an
idiot, said to have been dumb from his
birth, suddenly gave out, a few years ago,
that Zone night" he had visit from an
angel, who told him to arise from his bed
and follow him. He dldso; and was con.
Quoted by his visitor to remote and re-
tired spot, where lay a large flat stone,
having ring in the middle of it. This
stone was about five feet long, three broad
and eight or nine inches thick. On arri
wing at the place in question, the angel
commanded the idiot, whose name was
Joe Smith, to take up the stone by the
ring. Smith, as well he might, hesitated
to comply with such an order, when his
companion tod him to take it up boldly,
for, if he only had faith" God would
instantly give him strength 10 perform the
herculean task. Having,prayed inwardIy
for some minutes, Joe took off his coat
and was making preparations for the per
Torrance but the angel repfoyed hln
for his want of faith, made him re?iacs
his coat upon his shoulders, and that ever
off the stone weighed ten thousand tons
divine assistance, through saving taltf
would enable hn 10 lift it. joe becam
massive in the hands of the angel grasPe +
the ring, and found, to his astonshtnen
that the stone weighed as nothing n 81
hands! On removing it, the IDIOT diS
covered that it had served as GOVERN
to a box, or chest Of the same materla
under which were deposited 8 twelve 60
den plates or tables, engrayen all oyeI
with the mystical characters. Upon Us
upper plate lay a pair, of spectacles I
made Of tfreeSioae (save the mark which
the angel commanded Smith to place q
