MORMON POLYGAMY-HOW 1T AROSE.

1t has been said that Mormon Polygamy has
been engrafted on Mormonism recently. 1t is true
polygamy is not one of the original institutions OF
Mormonism. 1t did not originate at Kirkland; but.
it was originated 10y Joseph Smith at Nauvoo, four.
teen wears $50. The Deseret News has published
the journal of Joe Smitb-in that the Mormon
impostor says, that on Wednesday the 18th day OF
July, 1913, in presence Of his brother. Hiram l.
Dayton, he received n revelation, clothed mostly in
scripture language, announcing the doctrine Of seal
ing wives and concubines; but confines it to the
priesthood. This vile piece Of profanity and i'm
piety declares that the spirit seals such persons
and when sealed it is all right. The object Of this
revelation was to add concubines to the family
with his wife Emma, and to get over her scruples
and in order to make it appear Just, it is also re
vealed that the vito and children must not be de
prived of the property. Accordingly, on the SAINT
day, Joseph made deeds of lots to Emma and hei
children and thus polygamy began among thC
Mormons. The ground of justification was pre-
cisely the same with which some Doctors Of Divin
ity have justified Slavery. The revelation to Jut
Smith, quotes Abraham and the Patriarchs al
holding cOncubines, and it was accounted 10 him fG
righteousness! In order that some Divines whc
defend Slavery may know what excellent compani
they have got into. we quote the following para
graph of the revelation made to Joe Smith:
Abraham received concubines, and they bare
him children, and it was accounted to him fo
righteousness, because they we're given unto him
and he abode in the law MS Isaac also, and Jacul
did none other Things than that which they wer,
commanded and because they did none othe
things than that which they were commanded,
thoy have entered INTO their exaltation, according
to the promises, and sit upon thrones; and are no
angels, but are gods.

SAMUEL JoHNsoN's sTUeGLE IN LIFE

Macaulay, in his recent biographical essay on
the Life of Samuel Johnson" and at that ne.
Rod when the struggle was severe and his re-
ward scanty, says:
The misery of that struggle needed no aggra.
walton, but was aggravated by the sufferings of an
unsound mind. Before the young man left the
university, his hereditary malady had brokenEforth
in a singularly cruel form. lie had become an
incurable hypocondriac. lie said long after. that
he had been mad all his life, or at least not per.
fectly sane; and in truth ,eccentricities less strang 20
than his have often been thought grounds stuff.
cient for absolving lelons, and for setting aside
wills. His grimnces, his gestures, his mutteripps
some times diverted and sometimes terrified people
who did not know him. AT dinner table he
would in q fit of absence, stoop down and witch
off a lady's shoe. lie would amaze q drawing
room by suddenly calculating a clause of the
Lords Prayer. He would conceive an unintelli.
gible aversion to n particular alley. and perform n
great circuit rather than pass the hateful place. He
would set heart on touching every post in the street
through which he walked. If by any chance he
missed a post he would 60 back a hundred yards
and repair the omission.
Under the influence of this disease, his senses
became m~orbidly torpid, and his Imagination NOR
bidly active. AT one time he would stand norinp
on tho town-clock, without being able to tell ths
hour. AT another he wonld distinctly hear his
mother, who was many miles off, calling him by
name. But this was not the worst. A deem mel.
~ancholly took possession Of him, and gave a dark
tinge to all his views of human nature, and of
human destiny. Such wretchecness MS he endured

themselves. But he was under no temptation 10

M0RM0NISM OUT OF UTAH.

In New York city the number of p~rofcssed be.
levers in the'Buok of Mormon is alarmingly large.
but 1t cannot be the purpose of the sect to build
up a largo congregation of worshipers anywhere
except in their own Territory. The churches
among the "Gentiles can only b. designed for re-
cruiting stations, the neophytes being hurried off
to Salt Lake, where they will not be amcnable to
the civil law. The weekly paper published in this
City every Saturday, as the organ of The Saints,
gives a good many interesting detnils of the move
ments of the MOrmons in the Eastern States.
There was held in East Brooklyn, last week. q
meeting of the Presidents of branches Of the New
York Conference, Mt which there were repre-
sentatives and reports from twelve different towns
in this State, Massachusetts aud New Jersey The
reports all speak very encouragingly of the excel.
lent spirit which prevails at all the different
branches" Among the rest Of the Elders wh9
gave an account of their labors Mt this Conference
was Elder McCune, who had recently returned
from Burmah, where be had been preaching Nor
monism among Indian idolators. President John
Taylor was presented with a testimonial asa high
appreciation of his lab0rs in the EIstern States, D
several Saints were admitted priests, q new local
editor was appointed for the weekly paper, money
was appropriated to defray the expenses of certain
brethren who are to be sent out with the Spring
Emigration to Ulah, and a new President was
elected for the New York Conference in place oil
President Taylor, who goes out to join Brigham
Young in Salt Lake City. The late President de
livered a plain address to the priests and elders, in
which he set before them the results Of his laLors
and directed them how to proceed hereafter. o.
course there must be a good many things which
the Society will not put in type. which are neces
sary to be known to fully comprehend the design,
and operations of these people. Like all Other
sects, societies and organizations, the Mormon,
are oc ,~asionally hampered and restricted by thu
lack of money, and brother Taylor delivered
SONS impressive injunclions as to the imporsauc,
of prompt rcmittances.

THE SONG OF THE LITTLE BUILDERS
BY wM. GLAND BOURNE.

Little Builders! build awayl
Little Buildersl build today
Build q temple pure and bright,
Build it up in deeds of light;
Lay the corner strong and deep,
Where the heart the truth shall keep;
Lay it with a builders care,
For the temple resteth there.
If you want an horored name,
If you want n spotless fame,
Let your words be kind and pure,
And your temple shall endure;
Wisdom standetb as the door
Come and see her priceless store;
Virtue gently guides your feet,
Where the good and holy meet.
Set the pillars firm and strong,
Raise them with the workers song;
Toll is prayer, and toll is praise,
Keep this worship all your days;
Let your life be loving deeds,
Go and help when sorrow pleads;
lie. the tear of pity fall,
When you hear the mourner call.
Little Builders! build away!
There is work for you to-day;
Deeds Of mercy and Of truth,
Making bright the hours of youth;
Work, and pray, and joyous sing,
Ever fast to virtue cling,
And a temple so sublime
Shall %outlast the years Of time.
