things connected with the whole history Of our
Government. But the great majority Of the
Mormons were
sERFs n THE OLD WORLD,
md it is not very difficult to keep them as alaveB
in Utah. A majority Of the Saints have stolid
and unhappy look, like that, which we see in the
| lower classes Of animals; they are the mud-sllls
| of Europe. ANY condition in life would be bet
ter than their condition in the Old Country, aud
| 80 they came swaruliug to our shores, and, IN
| stead OF thanking us for an asylum and nome;
| must defy our laws, and help sustain as hateful
| d tyranny as any on earth. It is a humbug TO
cay TINT thoy help to develop the .no
the land which of right belongs to american
| settlers and law-abiding men.
