With dull red splendor in his gaze The sun sank towards his nightlv rest, And clouds whose rims were all ablaze, Piled lnouitta'n-high with gloom the west. Without the sunset's golden Bush To crimson o'er the winter sky— To make the leafless tree-tops Mush, The fields in burning glory lie. To wander lonely wilds about. I!ach lowly hut from gloom to win— Making warm fir ■ glow without Where warn fires never glowed within. To wind a thread of silver light. Where -treams, locked in an icy hold. Lay whitely 'mid the lorest's blight. Their lips of music dumb and cold. Nature was desolately drear, And told, in waitings loud and deep, A tale of hopele-s wc and fear, As. wrapped in clouds, she sank to sleep. But when the gient Cyclops, Day, Shaking the dun locks from his brow, Opened his great dull lid of gray. The world was beautiful with snow. AT THL DDOR.

She stood within the portal, And I gazed upon her charms. And, oh! 1 longed that moni-nt To clasp her in my arms. She spoke about the moort and stars, How clear and bright they shone I said I thought tile crops would ftp, Unless we ha l some soon. Then I e Ig 'd a Tittle closer, Put my rnis nis—iT-a *> - "•"***' And gazed upon i hose rosy lips, I longed so much to taste. Said I, "my dearest Susy, I'il never rest contented— Ifl leave to-night without a ki-s, I'll surely grow demeuted." Then up she ttinted her rosy mouth, And everything was handy ; tiuiok from her lips I seized a kiss— Oil, Yankee Doodle Dandy ! Then off for home I started, T could no longer stay; With a light heart and breeches thin, I whistled ail the way. Hence learn this truth, ye ha-kful youth, j Who seek for wedded bliss, No lass will love until you move Her feelings with a kiss. i&KIMMb. __ j From the American Agriculturist.

It is a time of endurance, and almost the whole labor of the farmer is directed to make his family and the animals dependant ' upon him comfortable. There is little to attract i biui to tbe field or forest but the stern neces sities of the season. 1 e ( , there can be little doubt that a much larger pat t of the H inter is redeemed for useful labor now than fifty years ago.

In 182b there lived near the village of Pal- j ; myra, in New York, a family of small farmers ; iof the name of Smith. They were of had re ! pute iu the neighborhood, notorious for being , i continually in debt, and tieediess of tlmir bnsi ! ncss engagements The eldest son, Joseph, ; says one of bin friends, "could read without j difficulty, wrote u very imperfect hand, and ; had a \cry limited understanding of the ele : men fury rules of arithmetic."" Associated in J Mime degrae with Sidney Rigdon, who comes i : before us in the first piaee as a journeyman j printer, he was the founder of the new faith. | The early history of the conspiracy of these t j worthies is imperfectly known: but it is #vi • dent that Rigdon tuuat have been in Smith's confidence from the first. Rigdou, tudecd, probably bad tuore to do with the matter than ' even Smith; but it was the latter wuo was first nut conspicuously forward, and who managed to retain the preemtueuce. The account of tue pretended revelation, as given by Smith is I ias follows; He at ouco found himself labor- \ jug in a state of great darkue.vs and wretched- : : ucss of mind —was bewildered among the con flicting doctrines of the Chiistiaus, nod could j i find no comfort or rest for his soul. In litis j state, be resorted to earnest prayer, kneeling I ,in the woods and fields, aud after long perse- ; ; yepiince, was answetej by the appearauce of a i I bright jigM iu beav-'t. which gradually dc- ! ' scetjded until it enveloped the worshipper,! wbo found himself siaifliug face to face with ! two supernatural beings. Of these be inquired i which wa.s the true religion! The reply was, that all the existiug religions were erroneous, 1 but that the pure doctrine and crowning dis- I peusatiou of Christianity should at a futurepe- I ' riod bo miraculously revealed to himself.— j. i Several similar visitations ensued, and at IcDgtb | ( he was informad that the North American In- : ! dians were a remnant of Israel; that when i they first entered America they were a powet i fill and enlighteLod people; thai their priests ■ j and rulers kept the records of their history aud j dootrioes, but that, having fallen off from the I i tme worship, the body of the nation were supornaturally destroyed—not, however, until a priest aud prophet named Mormon, had, by heavenly direction, drawn up an abstract of their records and religious opinions. He was j told that this still oxisted, buried in the earth, j aud tbat.be was selected as the instrument for ! i its recovery and manifestation to all nations, j i The record, it was said, contained many propb- j | ccies a? to.lbeso latter days, and instructions ' for the gathering of tbr saiuts into a temporal J I aid spiritual kingdom, preparatory to the sec -1 coming of the .Messtali, which was at band. alter seyjjral very similar visions, tl*; spot in I' htoh tite'hook lay buried was disclosed.— iuuth we.TfTo it, and after digging, discovered i son of box, formed of upright aud horizontal j * *g-, withiu whieh lay a number of plates re eiubUng gold, and of ti;o thickness of common : iu. l'jjese were bounl together by a wire, i mJ were: enginvyd with Egyptian characters, ay tiie side of tkciu lay two transparent stones, talivd by the anci- nts "Uritu and Thumttiin," j set ui "the two rims of a bow." These stoues vers (iivitiiug crystal,, and the angels iulorui oi .Sunn, that by using them ho would be en iblel to decyph.ir t)te character on the plates. >\ hut ultimately became of the plates—if such j things existed ai ail--docs not appear. They Weresatd to have been seen and iiandled by j elcvai witnesses. With the exception of three ! pt-rsms, these witnesses were cither members iot Suith's family, or of a neighboring family }"f tlr name ot Whinner. The ,Smiths, ot coure, give auspicious testimony. The Wbit ! ujcrsl'Hve disappeared, and no one ktiovrsany thiui, ilout them. Auother witness, Uiivcr Cewwey, was after,varus an amanuensis t) Jo sepli; aud anoilter, Martin Harris, was long a eotLtyeuous-disciple. There is sum - confusiou, luiwirer. about this person Although he sigixhis name as a witness wlhi has seen aud handed the pja'.ts, he as.-ured Professor An thou irat he never ha 1 seen thorn, that "he was rat sufficiently pure of heart," and that Josejp-refused to show him the plates, but i iiui instead a transcript on paper of the enaraVers engraved on them. It is difficult to trae the early, advances of the imposture. Everything is vague and uncertaiu. vV'e have no itaes, and only the statements of the proph et ant his friends.

' Uu this statement being made, I)r. Ambon described the document suburittud to htm as baviug been a sort of pot pottrri of an ' cient mark- and ulpliabets. -It had eviJeutlv been prepared by some person who had before hitu a book con'-iiuiug various alpbabets; Gr< eje and Hebrew letters, crosses and jjuui ishes, Roman letters, inverted or placed side ways, were arranged in perpendicular columns, and the whole ended in a rude delineation of a circle, divided into various compartments, dock - ed with numerous strange marks, and evidently copied alter the Mexican Calendar given by Huaiboi'it, but copied in such away as not to betray the source whence it was derived." This account disposes ot the statement thit the |characters were Egyptian, while the vefv yuui : b!e of the signs of different nations, language*, and ages, proves that the imnoster Was defi cient both in tuet and knowledge. The scheme seems to have been, at all events, in petto wbeu Smith communicated with Harris but a satisfactory clue to the fabrication is jost in >ar ignorance of the time and the circurn- Cauoes under winch Smith and Rhrdori eame Ggetiier. It tupst have been suinequ*nt to j Gat treat that the "translation." by means of : the tiagic Uritu and Thuiumim, was , 'Phis work Smith is represented as havfog la -1 borer at steadily, by Oliver On wire v, uutil a volume was produced coatdiißug as mue! matter as the Old Testament, written in the Jihhsal style, and contaiuining, as Smith the Angel had informed him, a history of lib lost tribes in their pilgrimage to aud in America with copious doctriuui and prophetic cuuuie!rt.alies and revelations. The devotion of Harris to the impostor se ' ctred a fuud sufficient for defray ing the coat of J printing the pretended revelation, and the sect | big-ati slowly to luerea-e. The doctrines of ! Stiitli were not at first- very clearly defiued; i: ! isfiobable that neither be nor Rigdon bad de i te.nuined whet should be their precise charac ter; but like their early cotemporarv, the j pnphet Mathias, (the interesting history cf ' wlhse careor was published in New York sev- I end years ago by the late Colonel Stone.) they h&i no hesitation m deciding on one cardinal poot, that the revelations made to Smith at any ttijie should be received with unquestioning and implicit faith, and the earliest of these rev elations contemplated a liberal provision for all the*prophet's personal necessities. Thus, in i February, 1831, it was revealed to the disei ; plei that they should immediately build the : prophet a house; on another occasiqn it was enjained that, if they liad any regard for their owa souls, the sooner they provided him with i fool and taiuicnt, and everything he ueeded, j the better it would be for tbem; and in a third i revdatioo, Joseph was informed that "he was not to iabor for his living." All these revela tions were received, and though tho imposter seemed to intelligent men little better than a buffoon, his followers soon learned to regard him as almost deserving of adoration, ami he ; began to revel in whatever luxury and profli gacy was agreeable to his vulgar taste aud am bition. As iu the case of the scarcely more respectable pretender, Andrew Jackson Davis, it was asserted that his original want of cultL ! vatloo precluded the notion of his having by the exercise of any n.ilur.il or acquired facul ties produced his revelations. Everywhere his followers said, "The prophet is not learned in a huuiau sense: how could he have become ac quainted with the antiquarian learning here displayed, if it were not com municated to him?" But to mis question there was soon an answer equally explicit and satis factory. Tlid real author of the Rook of Mot - 1 UIOO was u Rev. SolomonSpiulding, who wrote it as a romance. Its entire history, and the means by which it came into the possession of Smith, are described iu the following state ment, by Mr. Spaulding's widow: "Since the Book of Mormon or Goldtn Bi ble (as it was originally called,) has excited ) much attention,'and is deemed by a certain new ! sect of equal authority with tb*? sacred Scrip tures, I think it a duty to the public to s'ste i what 1 know of us origin. * * 45 * jJol oiuou Spuuldiug to whom I was inarmi in ear-! ly life,, was agradtut# of Dirim-oim t ji-.egc-t':-l . was disiingUi-hed for a lively ijuati'imwicM, :• d great fonduess for history.

Nearly from the begm j ring the leaders of the sect seem to have eou i teoipbtted settling iu the thinly populated ro i gumtj of the western States,-where lands were ' to be purchased for low prices, and after .t j short residence at Kirkland, in Ohio, tbev de termined to found H New Jerusalem in Mis souri. The interests of the town were confi ded to suitable ojiicers, and Smith spent Lis time in travelling through the country and preaching, on til the real or pretended i tumor alifie* of the sect led to such discontents that iu 1839 they were forcibly and lawlessly ex { pel le i from the State. We ero inclined to be j iieve that they were not only treated with re i iuarkabL- severity, but that there was not any ■ reason whatever to justify an interference in their affairs, t From Missouri the saints proceede.l to Illi nois, and y>u tLe sixth of April, 1841. with im posing cere mootes, laid" at their new eitv of Nauvoo the corner-stone of the Temple, au im mense edifiee, without any architectural order or attraction, which in a few months was eeie hratdJ everywhere as not inferior in size ana magnificence to that built by Solomon in Jeru salem. Nauvoo is delightfully situated in the : midst of a fertile district, and w careful iuqui | home ola more industrious, frugal, and gene : raily moral society, thm occupied any other towu ii tue kitaU'. \\ hatcver charges were brought against Smith uml bis disciples, to jus | ify the outrages to which they were subjected, the history of their expulsion from Nauvoo is simply a series of illustrations of the fact that the ruffian population ol the neighboring coun try set on foot a vast scheme of robbery in or der to obtain the lands and - improvements of the Mormons without paying tor them. We have not room for a particular statement of the discontents and conspiracies which grew up in the city, nor for any details of the aggres sions from without. Ou tha 27th of June. 1844, Joseph and liiram Smith were murder ed, while under tiie especial protection of the authorities of the State. A writer iu the Christian Reflector newspaper, soon after, ob served of Joseph Smith: arious are the opinions concerning this singular personage, but whatever may be thought in rtfcreuce to his principles, objects, or moral character, alt agree that ho was ;a ■ most remarkable man. ••••*'. ■ Notwithstanding the low origin, poverty, and ; profligacy of these mountebanks, they have aug- I tneiitcd their uumbc.s till more than lOO.OtP 1 j persons are now nuuil-ercd among the follow er* of the Mormon i'rophet, and they r.over j wore increasing so rapidly as at the time of his | death. Burn iu the very lowest walks of itfe, reared in poverty, educated in vice, having no • claims to even common intelligence, coarse und vulgar in deportment, the Prophet Smith suc -1 succeeded iu establishing a religious creed, the j teucts of which have been taught throughout America; the I'iopket's vtttaes have been re hearsed iu Europe; the miuistors of Nauvoo have found a welcome in Asia; Africa has lo teued to the grave sayings of the *cer of Pal myra; the standard of the Latter Day £>aiuis has heeu reared pn the banks of the Niie;. and even the Holy land has been eutercd. b'v the cminissariea of this imposter.
