According to Mormonisn, the people.
o fnthe Union.must look put for a castiga-
ton "about these days.r President
Grant, in speaking of the. shedding of
the blood of JOE, SMITH, and the conse-
quences to flow therefrom, says - -t'
It is no matter how much they deal
in compromise measuers, or how often
they try to adjust difficulties that thick
en- around them tits a, stern fact that
the people of the United States have
shed the blood ofthe Prophets, driven
out the Saints of God, rejected the Priest
hood, and set at nought the holy gospel;
and the result of rejecting the gospel has
been in every age, a visitation from the
Christening hand of the Almighty
which chastisement will be administered
in proportion to the magnitude aud
enormity of their crimes.
Consequently, l look for the Lord to
use his whip on the refractory son called
"Uncle SAM L expect to see him chasz
tised among the first of the nations. L
think Uncle Sam is one of the, Lords
boys that he will take the rod to first,
and make him dance uimbly to his own
tune of"Ohl Oh!r' for his transgressions,
for his high-mindedness, and loftiness-
for his evil, for rejecting the gospel and
causing the earth to drink the Blood of
the Saints;-for this, [ say, I expect he

1t appears that President Kimbali
was cursed with rich relations, and has
cause to remember them. IF any of
these relations are h~ereabouts, they can
see what is in store for them. He evident
ly thinks that unless the devil gets his
rich relations there is no use in having
any devil. Being purified by fire, as
President Kimball prophesies, is rather
a severe business. He says: -
You have often heard me speak about
my kindred. Many wish to return toll
the old countries to briHg out their kin-
dred, their sons, and their'odauehters,
their fathers and their mothers. WHY
would mot go back for mine ?, Because
they would abuse me, as they always
have. When 1 was poor, and penniless
