Aaormonism Exposed.

Mr. Jarmans illustrated lecture on Mormon
ism last evening at City Hall, was given to
large and evidently appreciative audience.
The lecturer detailed the iniquities and
enormities of this blot upon our civilization,
creed contrasted with which Mohammedan-
ism, Buddhism and similar religions have
some claim to the respect of the world, embod-
ying as they generally do pure code of NOR
ais, while the religion of Young and Joseph
Smith labors to demoralize and degrade. His
comments upon the futile legislation OF Con-
gress sn the past, and the slight hope that the
law no W attempted to be enacted willialso prove
other than imperative, are emphasized by the
fillibustering in the House against the recently
introduced polygamy bill. The lecturer allud-
ed to the indecent and basphemous cere-
monies peculiar to the "House Of Endow-
ment," and exhibited specimens Of the para
phernalia worn by the converts. The stereop-
ticon illustrations gave great satisfaction, and
consisted of views en- route from England to
Salt Lake City, of public buildings, and the
impressive natural scenery of the Territory.
Though the lecturer INDUCED in many pleas
antry, he was, nevertheless, terribly in earn
est, and spared no effort to show the danger of
delay in dealing summarily with this mon
ster that seeks to fix itself firmly in the bowels
of the republic.
