INDIANS AND MORMONs.

The citizens of Corinne, Utah, ac-
'cording 10 the Record. are not afraid of
a Mormon uprising, sbet they de'dread
the Indians, who are camped in their
vicinity. The Indians are under the
control of "a bad man. q Mormon
Bishop named Hill, and they wonld
not hesitate to do bis bidding shonld
he direct them to plunder and burn the
town. Therefore. while the Gentiles
of other parts of Utah ask the Govern
mehtsito SEND troops to project them
from the Mormons, the Gentiles of
Corinne ask only protection from In
dams controlled and directed by Nor
mons. There may be good grounds
for asking protection from the Indians
whom the Mormons might incite to
commit atrocities. which they would
not dare do themselves, but that there
eau be any serious apprehensions of a
Mormon uprising against the Gentiles
in Utah seems preposterous. Brigham
Young and his apostles gre too intelli-
gent to counsel their ignorant follow
'ers to pursue course which would end
in their anDihilatiou.
