since when no speck of rebellion has been
known within the vast limits of that loyaI
State The rebellion in Utah, which
occurred during the reign of the Old Pub
lie Functionary, is too recent to be for
gotten The cause is no doubt fresh in
the memory of every maiden lady in the
loyal States. The republican instincts of
our people would not tolerate mnopoly

General Albert Sidney Johnston was sent
TO Utah with instructions to conouer the
conjugal spirit of Brigham.
The Mormon war ended gloriously 10
our arms, The cause was removed
Harens are now unknown among the lat
ter day saints, and Brigham, like some
lone bird without a mate, - refuses TO be
comtorted." In Europe, protraeted and
sanguinary civil wars have often resulted
from the differences of opinions in regard
to the true mode of constituting the Bible,
and especially concerning the operations
of the Holy Ghost They have failed
10 abolish the one or deny the other; the
result is that few countries in Europe
maintain the quiet which usually '.pre-

1t should not be overlooked that our
people were very ignorant or they would
never have been deceived by the treason
able enemies, North and South, of our
noble President.
Il was falsely charged that lie and his
party friends did not desire to suppress
the rebellion without first subverting the
rights OF the States; freeing all the slaves
and clevating them 10 political equality
with the whites Our people, being OF
course very ignorant, believed all these
false, scandalous, and malicious state
mentS; and among the resolutions you
will adopt at your meeting, there should
be one thanking his excellency, our most
approved President, for the effectual
means he has adopted to give strength
and moral power to the Union men and
women of the South. while nj the same
time he has shown how wickc,lly false
and Ebelous were the allegations of South
ern traitors and Northern Copperheads
that he intended to use the army and navy
10 abolish slavery. The Union men uf
the South will ever gratefully cherish the
name and memory ot, one who, by scTu-
pulous regard for his official and other
pledges, and his manly adherence to the
Chicago platform, has indicated the
truth of all the pledges which from time
TO time are made on his behalf; and the
traitors and Copperheads who thus falsely
charged our great and good President
with designing TO SubVert the institutions
of the Southern States, must Ecnceforth
bile their faces in shame.

with wild acclamation, mingled with "A
few ''bully halleluial,s.'' a resolution
severely denunciatory of those who criti-
cIsc our military operations, or show i'm
patience 1T the tardy movements of our
armies In South Carolina and Nirginia.
Such criticism gives the rebels aid and
comfort" and. though it may not be
felony without benefit OF clergy, is, never
theless, what MIR. Polk stigmarizes as
81 moral treason" a crime which our noble
President and other Wings of that day
were compelled TO dry up during the
war with Mexico.
