AFRICAN SLAVERY.
According to the theory of Mormonism, Divine
revelation has made no progress; and neither Christian
ity nor Mormonism, as ttey say denouncee habits or
Solomon. In dicourse delivered August 8, 1856, by
President j. H. Grant, published In THE Deseret Neu',
find tuch ioeas as the following:

circulated o.s ne ~ u bout them .uts to U

and he a.V between the history Of the law Of
Bondage AID Poly gamy are therefore B Die doctrines,
ano no revelation can be true that il inconsistent with
any portion thereof Vices crimes recorded in the
Bibe-se for instance the incest Of drunken Lot and
his daughters, the murder Of the Egyptian by Moses,
or the seduction of the wife Of Urish by David-woud
appear TO furnish precedents Of as much authority with
Mormon az virtues, az the example Of Joseph or OF
the good Samaritan.
Utsh. Perhaps there are not more than one hundred
negro slaves now in the Territory The law under
which they are held is as follows Territorial Laws of
Utah, P. l6l, chsP II sec. 3:

This patriarchal institution, when upheld by real
Mormon patriaichs, assumee new shape. II calls
things by softer name and instead OF sldres have
servants" So reluctant, too, are Mormon masters
TO punish their ants that II appears to have been

INDIAN SLAVERY.
But there is another type OF slavery to which
