appeared in this organ of Latter-Day Saints.
Brigham and Heber Kimball seem to be the
principal annunciators of Mormon opinion, but
George A. Smith, John Taylor and Orson
Hyde occasionally get of something more rich
in roughness than the ruling elders themselves.
The latest reports advise us that Il separation
from the States is duly advised, and resistance

borders of the territory. On this subject Bro
Heber says:
Will we have mama? Yes. The United
States have 100 wagons loaded with about two
tons to each wagon with all kinds of things
and then 1000 head of cattle, and there is said
to be 9, 500 troops, with this add that and the
other, that is I'll right. Suppose the troops
don't get there, but all these goods and cattle

that would clothc up the boys and girls and

Bro. Hebcr farther says that Joe Smith will
yet be believed in as God, that the troops were
sent there only to raise e rookery, and that nc
one but Priest of the Church can ever rule
over Utah. John Taylor exhorts them tostand
by the Constitution of the U. States. We clip
few extracts from their ranting to show the
blending of fanaticjsm and treason which
marks their counsels.

THE WOMEN TO LENDA HAND.
Let me say to all of you--learn to be true
and faithful and instead of laying out you,
means for fine bonncts and fine shoes, and fol
coffee and tea, my advice to you is, if you car
get five or ten dollars go and buy good blank
ct, gun or a sword. And We want you, ladies
to provide yourselves with weapons and with
all that is necessary, and be ready to defend
you selves, for you won't always have your
husbands to defend you'll. c. RimbaH.

The pay is to come when one shall chase a
thousand and two put ten thousand to flight
When thtt day comes the Lord will make the
enemies of his people flee as if there were thou
sands afte' them, when there is only one, and
that is the way that God will deal with our
enemies. The day of God ALI lightly is at
hand, when he will show forth his power, and
when he will deliver his people from all their
enenies.-Heber c. KimbaH.
THE 7 ME- HAS ARRIVED.
Now, when will the Lords time come to vex
the nations, &c? 1t is not for me to say; yet
it would be Il time very opportune when the ma
ton shall begin to dictate to an organize State
or Territory, in matters Of their own internal
policy and municipal regulations When we
were in distress and trouble, the nation rad no
power 10 help US but when we attempt to help
ourselves and to rid our community of living
and corrupt men, then the nation can send her
armies against us. Well, be it so. 1t is all
right, and will hasten the downfall of the
mighty image of Nebuchadnszzer, and the
rover that falls upon "th;s stone,, will be bro
ken, aud the stone re elected by the builders will
become the head of the corner.--Orson Hyde
sM TH's OPINION OF THE UTAH ExrFD TIoN.
They will send men here who are ignorant
of the circumstances that surround US, men W he
are totally ignorant of the irrigation of the
land by mountain streams, they will permi,
them to isterfere with the rights of the people
of this Territory. with fifteen hundred or two
thousand bayonets to back them up. Under
these circumstances, as big coward as l am,
! would say what pleased, and for one thing
would say that every man that has anything
do with such filthy, unconstitutional affair
was damned scoundrel. There is not man
from the President of the United States. to the
editors Of their sanctor ms, clear down to the
low bred letter writers in this Territory but
would rob the copre:s from dead nigger's eyes
if they had a good opportunity. If had the
commend Of thunder and lightning I would
never let one of the damued scoundres get
here alive.
