THE MORMON DISTURBANCES

Last week we did not undertake to give the par
tculars attending the death of the Smiths at Car
thage, because Of the many conflicting statements
as to the manner by which it was effected. Hav-
ing now obtained the correct version of the story,
we inssrt the whole in substance although unable
to give full particulars.
On the morning Of the day on which the deed
was done, it was proposed to march to NauVoo, but
Gov. Ford knowing that nothing short OF the de-
struction of that city would satisfy portion OF the
troops, and that if they marched into the city

to disband the army, except three companies, two
Of which he placed guard over the Jail for the
protection Of prisoners, and with the others he
marched to Nauvoo. The Smiths had given them
selves up to the officers of justice, relying i'm
plicity upon the pledges of the Governor that they
should be protected from violence. The Governor
was not satisfied with giving his own pledge but
Obtained pledges from those whom he lett to guard
the prisoners. Sometime between the hours of
and P. M. of that very day, abost 200 persons
from the town of Warsaw and its vicinity, ap-
preached the jail in direction opposite 10 that in
which the troops were encamped; overcame the
guard and accomplished their bloody and treach-
erous purposes. Both the Smiths were killed in
their room, which was In. the jailor's apartment,
up stairs. Joe raised the window end exclaiming
"Oh my God" fell heavily to the ground. He was
Immediately despatched by the discharge of num-
Der Of bullets into his body. Taylor, the editor OF
the "Neighbor" was wounded by several balls shot
into his legs. Thus ends the history OF Joe Smith

DFThe locos are making a desperate
effort to get up hurra for Polk and Dali
las. But it is an uphill business. Texas
has burned out, and new system is now
adopted; reports are put in circulation
through the press and otherwise. of chan
ges from Clay to Polk. A reader of a
democratic paper would come to the con-
clusion that all the prominent wings in the
country are joining the locofocos. This is
not so. Since the nomination of Polk, one
hundred individuals have joined the wings
where one has the locos. 1t is system OF
downright lying adopted for the purpose Of
