SoUTH. The Fayetteville Arkansian says:
This Mountebank preacher who has at
'raeted much attention during the past few
years, Is pandrIing to the depraved taste , f
Nor'h 'hern fanatics, by matchmaking. slavery
and shareholders, and eulogizing "Old
Brown" for filthy lucre, this hypocrite pros-
titutes his soul and even out Phillips, Phil
lips. The following from the State Rights
Eagle is worthy of a careful perusal:
"John Brown is immortal in the memories
Of the good in England, and in my heart he
lives."-C. II, Spargeon.
That may be true, for he certainly lives in
He'll sorne~here. and if there be any such
kingdom on earth, Spurgeon's heart is the
capitol. He who could give utterance the
following sentiment is fit to grace the posi-
ton which the condemned soul of John
Brown now occupies, and the infamous body
ot the unmitigated and bloody ruffan. whose
hypoeritcally evangelical reputation for elo.
quence gives him name in the world, should
meet with the same fate of the murderer and
traitor who "lives in his heart" He says:
Il do from my inmost soul detest slavery
anywhere and every ywhere, and although |
commune at the Lords table with men of all
creeds, yet with STAKEHOLDER have no fell
lowship of any sort or kind. Whenever one
has called upon me, have considered it my
duty to express my detesiation of his wicked
ness, and would as soon think of receiving a
murderer into my church or into any sort of
friendship, as man-stealer."
Thousands of our people, our southern peo-
pie, buy and read the sermons of this ram
pant time-server, this slip-shod imposter in
the church OF God, whose vile instincts should

whose habitation should be with the ma

reason To suppose,) the movement is one of
an extended and alarming nature, indeed-a
movement, in fact, emanating among tho

cehtrhted bodies of warriors for anv lengtb

has passed over the entire country of Ore
gon. the Snake and Humboldt rivers and
the Central route to the States-in fact was
last year special Government agent TO tho
Pannack, ohOshone and Pah-Ute tribes along
the emigrant road-io say that, if two ,bono
sand Indians are thus in the field, they must
have come from Oregon; or be Concentrated
from the Pannacks, the Shoshones and tbp
Pah Utes. The western Shoshones and tho
Pannacks were hostile last year. and killed
many emigrants. They NAV have come over
and Joined the Pah Utes, armed and inc;ted
by Mormon emissaries. This wouId no
count for the reported presence of white
men among them. They are class of Indi.
ans usually subsisting on roots, fish and rem
Tiles, and unless furnished with Morm6r
zee, ana hUur' cannot remain long together.
:, lhe Shoshones and the rich Cayuses and
Nezperces of Oregon are at. war. There is
therefore, little probability of Oregon Indi
ans being present. The Oregon Indians are
enabled to support a long war by subsisting
on Their herds of cattle, and driving the

JOE SMITH, JR.--Itis known that on the
9th Of April convention Of Joe Smith Nor.
mons was held at Amboy. Illinois, at which
'uii but bitter enough speeches were made
against Brigham Young. Joe Smith, who
mas now become rival of Brigham, is re-
ported to have refused to unchurch the lat
ter until his (Brighams) followers have time
ior repentance. Joe is thus spoken of by the
Cincinnati Gazette:
His dress upon this occasion was that of a
poor farmer, (hy the way. believe he is also
lawyer) His face would bespeak him
soft :" his eyes are gentle, his head rises to
peak on the top. his hair is black and long,
and he wears mustache nearly the same
color, but in mighty bad disorder. The first
impression on seeing him is that soap, water
and small tooth comb would materially af
feet his general appearance, to their exceed
ing great improvement Ia the doctrine and
practice of the Mormons he is evidently un-
learned. He had. as he often said cast the
thing from him, and when installed he did
not even possess Book of Mormon or a com
pilatiOn of the Doctrine and Covenants
Whatever he does will mainly be dictated by
master spirits, who, since the dispersion. have
held together and been gradually adding to
the remnant of the dispersed believers.
