From the Corinne utah, Reporter July 24.I

From the Corinne (Utah) Reporter. July 24l
few days ago we mentioned the fact that Will
liam Alexander ana David Hyrum, the younger sons
OF Joseph Smith, the Mormon prophet, were on tner
reorganized or aDtLpolygamy church. singular
interest attaches to the name OF David Hyrum. A
few months before JOsephs death stated that "the
man was not born who was to leau this people; but
OF Emma smith should be born son who would sue
coed in the presidency after season OF
named from hts 1ather's direction David tyrum,
born ut the Mansion House, NauvOo, on the 18th OF
the succeeding November. This prophecy Is secretly
dear to thousands Of MOrmOnS VINO are weary OF the
faith In Joseph smith. A few days ag0 the young
men reached Salt Lake CITY, and soon called upon
Brigham Young and announced their intention to
organize their church at once, asking permission
TO defend their faith IN the Tabernacle, proposing to
argue with the Brighamites from the original
Mormon books. We have but scane reports OF the
interview, but II Is said TO have been very warm.
Brigham was very angry At their presumption. and
denied them the use Of the Tabernacle, sending
word ut the same time to the bishops to shut them
one point OF the conversation, denied that their
father ever pactised poly gamy, citing their mothers
testimony, 10 which Brigham retOrted that their
mother twas q liar and had been proved a thief,n
the lady thus spoken Of IL the Eiecta Cyitr, or
"Elect Lady OF God" IN Mormon theology, who was
the glory Of their early history Like rope Pagan OF
the Plgrim's Progress, Brigham doubtless Rnaws mis-
nails In vain rage that he cannot, as IN former times
let loose the vengeance Of his Nauvoo Legion upon
MIS- power were now equal TO his feelings We should
