THE BOOK OF MORMON.
Lectures at the JOsephite Chapel by
Member of the ReOrgan-
lied Mission.

ED. DEMOCRAT: As much as has been
said in the religious and political arena
as to the Divinity of the Book of Mormon
and the mission of Joseph Smith, we
crave little space in your paper. 1t is
believed by many that Joseph Smith and
the teachings of the Book of Mormon are
largely responsible for all the errors and
wrongs that have been committed
whether real or imaginary under the
gulse OF Mormonism. To disabuse the
minds OF some, if possible, we wish to be
heard in our own defense. We believe
every theory should be tested on its own
merits. 1t would be just as consistent to
charge the Lord Jesus and the New Tes-
lament teachings as being responsible
for all the wrongs that have
been committed in the name of
the Christian religion as to thus charge
the former. Some OF the most revolving
fortunes have been inflicted on supposed
heretics and those who opposed the So
called Christian religion, and to-day such
a charge would be considered by all OF
the Christian world as being unjust and
And So we believe in
regard to Joseph Smith and the Book of
Mormon. Claiming as we do to represent
the true faith, we shall begin a series of
lectures in the Josephite Chapel, on Sec
ond South street, next Monday night at
I 80, first reviewing the lectures of Rev.
VI. I. Lamb against the Book of Mormon. |
and then producing evidence in favor of |
the book. The lectures will continue
during the week, by Elder j. C. Clapp,
of Montana. All are cordially invited to
attend, and especially clergymen.
Respectfully, X. J. ANTHONY.

The Seminary Building.

Under date of Alexandria, April Oath,
the committee appointed by concurrent
resolution Of the General Assembly a spe-
cial commission to estimate the cost of re-
building the burned college building in
Rapides Parish belonging to the State
Seminary and Military Academy, to fur
nish for information the prices of building
material at said place, and such other in
formation as may be pertinent to the sub
Ject Of rebuilding said college edifce, and
further to report as to the value and con-
dition of the property belonging to the
State at that place, respectfully report as
follows:-
1. To rebuild the college building on the
plan and scale of the original edifice will
cost the sum of $68, 900. The estimate your
commissioners hrve made upon the state
ments and calculations of expert mechan-
les, one of whom was the chief workmen
employed in the construction Of the origi-
nal edifice, and includes every thing ne
cessary to render the building thoroughly
complete and ready for occupation.
z. Cost of Material.-First-cla class yellow
pine lumber delivered Oh the grounds will
cost $40 per thousand; bricks made on the
ground will cost 800 per thousand. In
addition to the facilities there can be had
an abundance of skilled and unskilled Ia
Dor at reasonable rates.
2. Your commissioners have made q
careful organization of the buildings now
standing on the property of the Seminary,
and while we found their condition Civ
ing evidence Of the long years of neglect
and ill-usage, they still are of considera-
bic value, and with moderate expendi-
ture for repairs could be made as valuable
as ever. These are four in number, two
wooden and two brick. The latter are
very substantial and commodious struc-
lures, and could easily be placed in first
class condition. To thoroughly repair all
the buildings now standing the sum Of
$1,000 will be required. The lands belong
to the seminary comprise about $50 acres,
large portion oil which is covered with a
growth of excellent pine. The lands,
with the buildings now standing thereon,
your commissioners believe and report to
be worth the sum Of $25, 600.
