think it our duty--to lay before the readers Of
the Courier, an extract from letter written to
his friend aud ancient associate in arms, Gen
eral PLAUGllE, from which it will be per
ceiyed that he is as much animated BY love Of
country as he was thirty years ago. when he
expelled the British invader from the soil Of

We are happy and proud to hear the senti-
| ments Of the General on the subject of the
Presidential election. and his predictions Of the
result. No man in the Union has fuller OF
more accurate information on that subject; and
none is capable of drawing more correct CON
cusion from facts But here is the extract:
HERMITAGE, June IA, 1874.
'My Dear General-Texas, in possession
Of England OF under her influence, and where
would be the safety of our frontier from Indian
depreciation, and Of the South and West from
q servile war? Great Britain would organize
an army on the west bank OF the Sabine, then
declare war, and in six days, with light troops,
seize Baton Rogue. Having turned all our
having command of the ocean, it would cause
loss to us of ffty~thousand lives, and millions
Of money to regain it. u.
Texas is the key to our safety FROM British
invasion. | say accept her hand while she
holds it out to US, and shut the door against all
future danger, regardless of consequences. H..
''No one could regret more than did, the
position in which my friend, Mr.. Van Buren,,
placed himself by his letter on the annexation
of Texas. Had he come out for immediate
annexation, he would have received the rnan-
imous vote of the Convention as a candidate
for the Presidency, and would have been cleo
ted by the South and West by acclamation-
Although regret losing Mr.. Van Buren, and
the cause, yet, rejoice that the Convention
have made choice Of those worthy Democrats,
Polk and DALLAS. They are the strongest
and best selection that could have been made;
true in all their political principles; open in
their opinions; frank and firm in their desires
tor the immediate annexation of Texas, around
whom every Democrat, every true American
and patriot can and will rally, and none, TRUST,
with more alacrity than the BRAVE LOUISIANA
ANS, whose firesides are not safe until Texas
is annexed to our Union.
Then let Polk, Dallas and Texas be the
watchword and countersign-and Clay and his
friend Frelnghuysen, the friend also Of aboli-
tionism, for which lie spurns at Texas, will be
overwhelmed by the unanimous voice of the
South.
1.-The resolution for the annexation Of Tex
as received the united votes Of the Conven-
ton, and have no doubt but that they will
receive the united voice of all Louisianans, as
their safety and happiness depend upon it.
''The nominations have received hearty
response throughout the Union. think Polk
and Dallas will get 20 States, if not %, out of
the 26. Let Texas be the watchword and
victory is certain

FRIDAY MORNING, 8 o'clock.
DEATH OF THE PROPHET-JOE AND
HIRAM SMITH ARE DEAD.
The steamboat Boreas, Just in from
Warsaw, brings shocking intelligence
from the scene Of the Mormon war;
The, following slip, from the office OF
the Warsaw Signal, explains the dread
full tragedy:
"Joe and Hiram Smith are dead
shot this afternoon. An attack from
the Mormons is expected every hour
Will not the surrounding counties rush
instantly to our rescue? M
Warsaw, June 81, 1844.''
Itseems that tic circumstances at
tending the killing of the Mormon
prophet and his brother Hiram are as
follows; On yesterday Governor Ford
left Carthage With about 100 soldiers
fer the purpose Of taking possession of
the 6 Nauvoo legion" and their arms.
They arrived at Nauvoo about noon,
and called for the assembling Of the
legion.
About 1900 men with arms imme-
diatel y responded to its call. These
troops were put under command OF
Col. Singleton, of Brown county, who
accompanied Gov. Ford to Nanvoo.
The governor finding all quiet, left
Nauvoo about 5 O'Clock, p. M, with a
company of so men, for the purpose
| of encamping about seven miles from
the city.
At about the same time that Govor-
nor Ford left Nauvoo, the prophet and
his brother were killed at Carthage, I'M
der the following circumstances, as near
as we can ascertain them, j.
Joe and Hiram were both confined
in the debtors room of the Carthage
Jail, awaiting their trial on charge of
treason. The jail was strongly guar
ded by soldiers and anti .Mormons,
who had been placed there by the GOV
crnor.
A Mormon attempted to rush by the
guard for the purpose of forcing his
way, into the jail. He was opposed
by the guard, and fred a pistol at one
ofthe guard, giving him Slight wound.
A general confusion ensued in the
crowd around the Jail Joe and his
M5rmou fellow prisoners i seems had

no farther noise or motion till the next
day at II o'clock, when he repeats the
same loud and startling crow, tapping
his wings and raising his head.

Wiues and ,Sisters-A deal of mischief and
misery is not unfrequently occasioned in talni-
lies by the interference of relatives between
the man and wife, and in many instances the
unhappness 0. "a married couples existence is
owing to the Weakness of the wife, and the
malgnity or mistaken kindness of her friends.
A woman should look upon her husband as
her only friend, and in all cases wherein he
differs with any branch of her family, she
should assume it as fact that he Is In the
right, and govern herself accordingly. When
ever any one whispers tale to her derogatory
to her husband, she should look upon the tale
bearer as the enemy Of their happiness in the
first place, and in the second place as des-
plcable and impairment person, as all the tale
bearers are. In short, as Miss Pardoe says IN
the subIoined extract, when woman marrles
she should give up her heart, feelings, tancles
and opinions, to her husband, and never allow
a sisters influence to be superior to his. For
the joy, tranquility and comfort of her exls-
tence is dependent upon her husband; and if
they cannot live in amity together, they will
look IN vain for comfort and Responsibility IN
any Of the other relations of life.
There is degree of intimacy and commun-
ION OF thought End feeling existing between Sis
ters that cannot remain unbroken after marriage.
Pure and beautiful as is the tie of sisterhood,
1t Is not right that it should continue in all its
strlctness and eXclusiveness after marriage. The
husband has still stronger claims upon his wife,
and 1t Is impossible this can exist unnjured if
the tie of sistefhood is retained in all its former
