Sensational Sermon by Apostle John

New YoRK, Dec. 5-A Salt Lake special
reports the Deseret News, the official organ
of the Mormon Church, as saying that
Apostle John Taylor during the Mormon
Conference at Provo. near Lake Utah. last
Sunday evening, touched upon the polti-
cal rights of the people in their connection
with the government of the Nation.
"The laws should he obeyed and its off,
GERS respected yet there was principle in
connection with our social life, one of the
greatest principles advanced by the Lord
for the good of the human family with
which one of the laws of the land was at
variance. We know that the Lord has
transmitted laws of plural marriages
through his holy priesthood l know it,
and all the DEGREES and edicts Of the world
can not change my mind"
He contrasted the course Of certain
King when Daniel was cast into q den of
lions. and that of President Hayes when
asked to pardon one of our brethren; "bnt
then that King was heather, and the lat
ter Christian. This action regarding our
religious belief has been decided by the
Courts, and the laws of God are at variance
with them. Which shall we obey?'
Here the speaker called upon the congre-
CATION to manifest by raising their right
hand if they were in favor of obeying the
laws of God in this respect, which was
unanimously responded to by the congre.
CATION.
From this expression of this Apostle
President of the Church, and he certainly
wishes the world to believe him, he un.
questionably makes fight. THIS contro.
versy now is simply reduced to the point,
which shall prevail. the laws of the United
States or the alleged revelations Of God tC

VAIL FOR WALTERS.
BALTIMORE, Dec. 5.-Ths is the day fixed
for the execution of Medford Walters at
Elkton. Waters is colored man. and was
convicted Of the murder of Jenkins Whaley
He was sentenced October 18th.
BALTIMORE, Dec. s. Noon. Walters
was hanged on the Alms-house grounds,
three and one-half miles from Elkton, at
II :35 a. m. The prisoner slept soundlv be-
tween and a. NJ. and partook of break
fast of beefsteak, eggs and water, refusing
to touch coffee. He then smoked cigar
and appeared cheerful until Henry Williams
and another preacher arrived.
During prayers he was visibly affected
and tears rolled from his eyes. At 0;30 he
put on new suit of clothes, given him BY
the Sheriff, and went to bid the other pris-
oners good-by, leaving each cell with the
exclamation, "Thank God" The parting
with Bessie Hawkins, a female prisoner, to
whom he had given what was left of his
breakfast, was affecting. He had formed
an affection for the woman in Jail, and with
tears in his eyes begged her to lead better
life, saying that he had religion and was
going to God. .s.....
At precisely 10 o'clock the procession
formed outside the Jail, with asquad Of the
Groome Guards forming in front. A wag-
on came next containing the condemned
man, Sheriff Boulder, his two deputies and
Rev. Henry Williams, colored. A detach-
ment Of the guards brought up the rear Of
the cortege. Which was followed to the
scene of execution by a large concourse OF
people, white and colored, on foot and in
vehicles
Walters bore himself with considerable
firmness and stoical composure, and for the
most part kept his head bent while listening
to the prayers and announcement of his
spiritual adviser. After the body had beer
cut down.. it was taken in charge by an un-
dertaker, placed in q plain coffin, and buried
near the scene of the execution.
A few days ago when the prisoner was
asked by the minister if lie was prepared to
die, he said "Yes, if they let me kill that
niger woman that testified against me !
will be prepared" He afterwards repent
ed, however, and appeared to die in the be-
lief of salvation.
