that the speechtes were mainly composed of

No doubt the meeting alluded to was com

ably wore their working clothes, with hands
hardened - and complexions t mbrowned by
Ininest toil Such men, in the eyes of a New

would look like a -hard urowd But this
organ of Black Republizain4 must know,
that such men as those who hoiTilled his
gaze at Allentown are able to do their own
thinking and voting, and they are not to be
ridiculed or despised by the leaders of any
party with impunity.
It is strange how often that old adage : -
-What is bred in the hone won't come out
of the flesh"—is illustrated, Here wo find
an unintentional paragraph in the great or

that the same feeling is nout entertained for
the laboring men as• was held by the old
Federalists, from whom the Republican lead

B. Y.—We do.

B. Y.—No.

It. Y.—They would consider themselves
aggrieved if they were not invited hither
We hold to such a gathering together of
God's People WI the Bible foretells, and that
this is the place, and now is the tune ap

indicate Jerusalem (of Judea) ss the place
of such gathering.

pronounced on Ilaim shall hat• been re
moved from Ins desiteudants.
II (I.—Are any slaies now held in this
Territory T
Y —There are.
II U —Do your Territorial laws Uphold
Slavery
13 Y.—Thome laws are printed—you Can
read for yourself. If slaves ar a a brought
here by those who owned them tn the States,
e do not favor their escape from the service
of those owners

B Y -No, she will he a Free State
Slavery here would prove tisehtss and in

bor.
II G.—Let me now ho enlightened with
regard more especially to your Church policy
I understand that you require each int. Itliter
to pay over one tenth of sit that ho produces
or earns to the Church.
B Y.--That in a requirement of our faith.
There to no compubnor as to the payment
Each member acts in the premi set ACCOrdlng
to his pleasure, under the (Itclates of his
own conscience
11 G —What is done with the proceeds of
this tithing
H. Y Part of it is devoted to building
temples and other placer of worship : part
to helping the poor and needy converts on
their way to this country : and the largest
portion to the support of thy poor among the
Sands.
11. ti —ls none of it paid to Bishops and
other dignataries of the Church ?
B Y —Not one penny. No Bishop, no
Elder, no Deacon, or other church officer,
receives any compensation for his official
services. it Bishop is often required to ant
h•a hand in his own pocket and provae
therefrom for the pair of his charge, hut he
never receives anything for his services.
then, do your ministers live?
IL Y. By the lehor of their own Mtn is,
like the first Apostles. Every Bishop, every'
Elder may be seen dailyeli-work-in the field
or the shop, like liiieneighbors, every minis
ter of the Church has his pref~er calling by
which he earns thie-broadof his family ; he
who cannot or_wil! not do the Church's work
for nothing is not wanted in 'her service ;
even our lawyers (pointing to den. Ferguson
and another present, who are the regular
lawyers of the Church,) are paid nothing for
their services: I am the only person in the
Church who has not a regular calling apart
from the Church's service, and I never re
ceived one farthing from bet treasury ; If
obtain anything from the tithing house, I ant
charged with and pay for it, just as any one
elms ,would ; the clerks in the tithing store
are kidlike other clerks, but no on. Is ever
paid for aii) service pertaining to the Minis
try. We think a man who cannot make , his
living aside from the Ministry of Christ, is
unsuited to that office. I am called rich,
and consider myself worth $250,000; but
not a dollar of it was ever paid me by the
church or for itny service as a minister of the
Ererlasting (lapel.. Host nearly all I had
when we were broken up in the Missouri
and driven from that State ; I was nearly
stripped agent. when Joseph Smith wee
murdered and we were driven from Illinois :
but nothing was ever made up to me by the
Church, norby SO one. I believe I know
how to acquire propeety and how to take
care of It.
H.—Can you give me any rational ex
planation of the aversion and hatred with
whieh your people are goners* , regarded ,,
by those among whom they haVe lived and
with wbodi they have boon brought directly
in contact I -one
B. Y.—No other explanation than is af
forded by the crucifixion of Christ and the
kindred treatment of God's ministers, proph
ets and saints in all ages. .
G.--Iknow that n new steeds aldvays
decried and traduced--that it is hardly ever

her, that either of them were ever, generally

Christ, you willfbid that and his disci

11 C.--Wbat do you say of the so called
Danites, or Pestroying Angels, belonging to
your church I
B. Y.—What do you say I r know of no
such hand, no Sitidh persons nr organization.
I hear of them only In tho slanders of our
enemies.

tpfestion on which your doctrine .and prac
tices are avowedly at war with those of the
Christian world—that of iplorslity Of wives
