lhe Pntsburg papers give rather an amusing
accountof the return 10 that city OF one of Joe
Smiths Naupoo saints. Among the first con-
verts to the Mormon faith, in Piitsburg, it seems
was a baker by the name OF Arney. He left
his "bread-trough' and went to Nauvoo, with
others who had been converted in The neigh
borIlcod under the preaching otone Elder Page.
Arrived at the "holy city," he was honored
with a sight of the temple and an audience Of
the prophet. This to an ordinary man would
have been considered all sufficient compensa-
ton for a pilgrimage OF five hundred miles
but not so thought the baker--he was well
enough satisfied with what he had seen, and
wanted to see more. Inquistiveness often leads
people into difficulties; and Joe soon discovered
that his baker convert was "more cake than
dough-" and pretty solid loaf at that, so he de-
termined to reduce his size to the standard of his
other stuff for fear the baker would work too
tar into the mysteries of his sect. Joe had re-
course TO revelation /; the baker looked on and
wondered. Another revelation and prophe-
cy followed and the baker thought he discover
ed ''mlschief in the heap" and so expressed
himself, and irruption in the camp was the
consequence and the baker sacked" them. and
returned to Pittsburg, perfectly satisfied that he
had been most wretchedly duped by the i'm
posture.
