FIRST THINGS

The first announcement of his dis covery of the book of Mormon was made by Joseph Smith, the founder of the sect, elghty-five years ago: the book as written on gold plates In Egyptian characters. Opponents of Mormonism assert that the book was in reality written a century ago, Tn Spauiding, as a religious romance in limitation of the scripture style fhe work was little known, and it is all legged that when it fell into the hands as a new revelation The book of Mormon was first translated and pub lished in America in 1880, and in Eng land in 1sA, The first Mormon church was organized at Manchester: ~. r., in 1880. The allegations of critics as to the origin of their 'sa- ored rboox'' are bitterly denied by the numerous followers of the Prophet.
