From n Sermon by Elder OrSou Hyde, March II.
During the late session Of the Legislature a very
polite note received by that body from Mr.. Van
Emman, agent of the American Bible Society, who
wished to have the members call at his depository and
examine his Bibles, quality and prices; and to adver
tise them in the various localities to which they
about to repair and also TO lay before them the object
of the society in sending the Bibles to Utah. The
Legislature thought proper TO appoint committee to
wait upon Mr.. v, examine his books &c; and being
n member of the House |, with Brother +. ID. Rich
ards appointed said Committee. In the discharge
Of our duties, | remarked to Mr.. Van Emman, who
by the by, received Us very gentlemanly that the
cfety which he had the honor to represent, doub
considered us degraded and almost beyond the reach Of
Bible truth He replied that they did not consider as to
degraded might think they did; but that It wa
the design of the society to put the word of God int
The hands Of every man in the world, Utah not ex
cepted. replied, that this was very good. But, how
ever charitable and benevolent the designs OF tina
society may be- far Utah is concerned, they have
cent the wrong book if they wish TO reclaim Us from
the belief in and practice OF Polygamy; for instead
If its retaining u.s. 1t confirms us IN our be-
lief and practice, and no where condemns II; and
hence, conscientious IN our manner oil me-
having the word of God which you bring US for our
standard Although faith and practice are such rs
we declare unto you, yet no people on earth look with
greater adherence and indignation upon yloatono OF
the principles that govern us than we DO No man OF
woman among us not of our faith, that behaves HIM
self and violates not our laws and regulations, has
any occasion fear molesaton. But if he or she do
violate them and will not desist cannot vouch for
his safety member of Church or not; neither can
Insure his house to stand.
We have had and still have among US, men who
write back to the States garng accounts of our char
acter and conduct and bitter complaints of treat
ment toward them; bnt it would be hard for them to
detail the awful treatment they pretend to represent
We do not often act without cause; and one, too,
which with them are willing TO meet ut the bar OF
God and answer TO our treatment. we nave been
numerically forced to to Utah, but we force no
one else TO come; vet if they do come, want them
to behave themselves aud attend to their own busi-
ness We do not consider an officer OF the GOverh-
ment to have any more right 10 commit wickedness
than any else; and If he does he merits severe
rebuke aud So for he not only destroys his
influence and power Ia do good, but brings dlshOnor
upon the power that sent him. would say 10 our
friends that have no hesitancy in recommending the
Bibles If Mr. Van Emman. They are, most unqueS-
onaby, well got up book, and afforded much
cheaper than they be usually bought in this place
You who want the Bible, would advise to ayah
yourselves Of this favorable opportunity.
