In the intervals OF excitement and inquiry re
garding the Riots at Philadelphia, the question Is
eagerly asked on all hands, What will bee ONE OF
Mormonsm now Joe Smith is dead-probably
butchered in cold blood, while a secure prisoner,
and without power even ii he had the WILL to
offer proyocation for violence: but MormonlSm
has not died with hun. Gross and monstrous as
are the delusions and perhaps abomlnatonS prac-
teed in the name of that faith, vet II Is vital,
living thing. Men and women, made OF the same
sort of flesh aud blood, and actuated by similar
sensations and passions, us Protestants, Catho.
lies, Mahomedans or whatsoever creed or worship
the sun shines upon, do actually beliere in this
Mormonism-a.e content to live and die by it
to Weld upwordly wealth, domestic ties, and the
strong bonds Of love of Native. land, for It; and
thus feeling and thus believing, to their dimmed
and distorted spiritual vision Joe Smith is as
much the Martyr.H Hero us any whose shadow has
eve fallen upon the world. The blood OF Joe
Smith, spilled by murderous hands, w'li be Ike
the tabled dragons teeth Sown broad cast, that
eve where sprang up armed men

either from History or their own instincts, the
grsst lesson to bide then iime and taat the cut
thrc enthusiasm which thought 10 extcrminate
aC and Creed, will be wretchedly deceived
1t ay be-it is indeed very iikely-,hat in a
formal declared war the Mormons will at las, get
the worst of it and be destroyed; but what 6
series of horrors does rot this conclusion presup
pose
