FULL CORRoBoRATION.

During the course Of the controversy
between this paper and tho Deseret
News over the assassination Of Joseph
and Hyrum Smith, we at one time print
ed part of statement made by Cath
crime Smith, who was sister of the
two murdered men. We now have that
statement III fuller form, the add-
tional matter having been inaccessible
TO us upon the former occasion. AS
means Of more fully informing the pub
lie in this matter, VIC reproduce this
more complete statement, as follows:

upon this matter; and it is merely pre-

contended and proved by the best au-

THE INToLERANT SPIRIT.

We very often hear from the Deseret
News concerning the spirit of tolerance
that was exercised toward inhabitants
Of this valley when the Mormon lead
ers were in complete control here. Let
MS cite an example of it. We find it
in a sermon delivered by President
Brigham Young ut the time the south
east corner stone Of the Salt Lake tenn
pie was laid aud dedicated. 1t is in
the Journal Of Discourses, volume 2,
page 33, and reads as follows:
We do not want any winners about

cheerfully. and go through the labor OF
the whole building cheerfuly, start for
California. and the quicker the better.
