resolution as dis0rganiEsp md leave us sole
propretors of the job, aud subject us to the
grave imputaton of having become the lie or
gan Of the re united national party But what
was our astonishment when we saw resolution
introduced to give the contract to the Union
only And how was our astonishment IN
creased when we observed that this resolution
was supported with oquacious zeal by wings
Was there, after all these overtures Tor Demo-
cratic re- union and harmony, coalition actually
formed between the Democratic Compromise or
gan and the Wings for the patronage OF the gov
ernment? Was this the reason why several men,
hers of the faithful-execution-o f-the-law Cabinet
had violated the law in Withholding from us the
Executive printing, and in giving it to the Union
with fewer subscribers! We asked the Re
puJlc about this coalition-it answered not,
And we confess that a shudder of distrust passed
over our naturally con6ding mind as to the sim
cerity OF all these warm professions of party
fraternity and returning love and affection.
Now, if our affectionate Compromise brethren
demand not only the nomination of President,
and the fnality of the Compromise, but the Cen
sus also, and in case we object, threaten to d.
vide it with the Wings, we are constrained to
conclude that, in such words as become the di
pomatic style of the Union, they are for cutting
the fat too thick We are afraid they fatter
themselves with the notion that with two Com
promise organs here, one Wing and one Demo-
cratic, to keep up perpetual believing against
traitors, dsunionists and others, they will sue
coed in finding few timid and trimming South
ern opponents of the Compromise, who will join
them with prospect of a few minor offices, and
thus make them strong enough to monopolize
the principal honors and jobs of this glorious
Union.
Now we think seriously that the whole project
of reunion is in danger. We think that the
Census Printing had better, and as the yankees
say, had ought to" be given to the Southern
Press and the Washington Union. We cannot
dispense with the latter. We shall make no
pledges or resolutions--we don't believe in
them any more. But we rather think we shall
never recant single word we have written in
the Southern Press. We rather think we will
never 60 for the fnality of the Compromise.
But if the Southern Democrats should con-
clude to 60 into the Baltimore convention and
they should there exert an influence that would
give us better candidate than the Wings. then
having some confidence from the act, giving us
share of the census, we should take the ques-
ton of supporting him into favorable consdera-
ton. But if the game of the Triumvirate of
ANTHONY, LEPIDUs and CESAR is attempted,
we shall prefer the decapitation of the Triumvi-
rate themselves, to that of our portion of the vic
tims-and shall keep our scymetar ip good or
der.

. rather a duality Of persons u
Godhead. God the father is an ,inf
finitely perfect man; Jesus Christ is
the Son of God by the Virgin Mary
and the Holy Spirit is the one mind
possessing and acting in the Father
and the Son. Passages are quoted
from their own works to show that
such are in reality their views.
First God himself, who sits en-
throncd in yonder heavens, is like q
man unto one of yourselves, that is the
great secret. If the. veil was sent to-
day, and the great God who holds this
world in its orbit, and upholds all
things by His power, if you were to
sec Him to-day, you would see Him
in all the person, imnge, aud very
form as man; for Adam was created
in the very fashion and image of God;
Adam received instruction, walked,
talked, and converscd with Him, rs
one man talks and colnmuncs with an
other"
There is q quotation eStaht from
the author of the ''Voice Of Warning"
to tho effect that 1--WE worship a God
who hath both body and parts; who
has eyes, mouth, and ears, and Vino
speaks when, anti to whom He pleases
who is just as good at mechanical
inventions Us at any other business"
But we are referred by their teachers
to the Apocalypse, where it is written
Of the Rcdeemer: "And hath made
us kings and priests unto God and his
Eather;" and to the apostle that said,
"there are gods many and lords many,"
to prove that the Father had his t;l-
Mer," and they talk boldly of the
grandfather, grcat-grandfather of God,
thus tracing back almost ad i,fnituns
to the "Ilead God, that called the
grand council together, when the worlds
came rolling into existence"
Our author adds 1.-The prophet has
not left on record, to my knowledge,
the manner in which the Head God or
iginatcd." And, hence, amongst the
Mormons, the mode of his origin is n
mere matter of opinion!
The Mormons believe that the
"hcad devil" as they term him, re-
taihs many of the noble qualities
which he possessed when an archangel;
that he is a 'pertcct gentleman" all
the mcEner temptations being resorted
to by the bascr sorts Of imps.
They entertain peculiar views on the
resurrection. believing that the same
body will be raised, but that it will
be without blood, which they consider
to be the mortal part of our nature.
This popularity in their faith is thus
Expressed by apostle Pratt, one of their
authorities in doctrinal matters.
"Jesus was the exact pattern Of our
resurrection. "And Jesus Christ came
forth triumphant from the mansions Of
the dead, possessing the same body
which had been born of woman,
which was cruciIicd; but no blood
flowed in his his veins; for blood was
the natural life in which were the
principles OF mortality; and man re-
stored to flesh and blood would he

that he retired to his home, and
though he never took any open part
against the schurch of new privileg'

toned against him as a defamer.
From 1888 to 1874, Mormonism
appears to have been in a state of
continuous prosperity at Nauvoo. 1t
was during this peaceful interim,
that the revelation, allowed to Jo.
seph, and the high priests Of the
Mormon hierarchy, as many wives as
they could support, was alleged to
have been received from Heaven. -
In vain the wife of Joseph, styled by
himself and followers, The Elect La.
dy threatened, by way Of retaliation,
to take another husband; the only
consolation she received was that o
prophet must obey the Lord he
would be obedient to the Heavenly
vision.'
The Mormons now boasted of hav.
ing 100000 persons in the faith,
throughout the States. In 1844,
Joseph sent forth his Views on Gov
crnment,' and was actually put forth
by the infatuated votaries of his reli.
gious imposture as one Of the candi-
dates for the Presidency! Now it
was that those who had treated them
80 hospitality, became incensed
against them. 1t was asserted, and
with truth, that no Gentle could Oh.

The property of the people Of Hi.
nois was stolen from them, and ira.
ces Of it were obtained at Nauvoo.
Men ofinauence and talent now des.

pealed to, and Joseph and Hyrsm,
his brother, together with DR.. Riscfhr.
ards and John Taylor, were lodged
in Carthage Jail.
The citizens Of Carthage now con.
spired together to attack the Jail, and
take justice into their own hands. -
Early on the morning Of the 9th of
June, 1914, they assaulted the door
of the room in which the prisoners
were incarcerated. Richards and
Taylor, lying on the floor, made n
stretch across the room, The feet of
one against the shoulders of the other,
and kept the door from fully opening.
Guns were thrust in and discharged,
and Joseph, with a revolver returned
two shots, hitting one man in the
elbow. A ball struck Hyrum, the
patriarch, and be fell, exclaiming, i
am killed!'-to which Joseph replied.
'Oh, brother Hyrpm!r The prophet
then threw up theswindow, and, in
the act of leaping through, was killed
by balls fired from the outside, say
ing, as he fell, % Lord, my Goa!''
The people in the hall forced into the
room and wounded Taylor; the other
escaped without hole in his robes
Experience has shown that Nor.
monism cannot exist in these States.
1t must conquer or die. The Nor.
