After remaining about two weeks in the territory,
I took peerage front Burlington in a boat Ruben with
lead from the rich mineral region in the northern
part of the territory. The river was very high, the
wind blew a perfect gale, and the boat being laden
with lead, rendered it very dangerous travelling.
After proceeding down the river about thirty miles,
we landed at Nauvoo where we were compelled to
remain from early in the morning until night; this
gave us an opportunity to visit Joseph Smith, and
examine his establishment. Nauvoo is situated in
Illinois, on the cast shore of the Missiasippi, and oc
cupies a large bend of the river, which sweeps around
from the north-east to the south-east, forming one of
• the most beautiful sites for a town on the Mississip

• size of the city, but suppose from the houses scatter

1 I started in company with brother Gaston, of the
I"t. straws an increase in favor el. the I Ohio Conference, from the upper landing about 8
000—considerable more than one-half 1
o'clock, A. H., to see the prophet (or rather the litt
le amount re,eived for the same period
!poster.) We had to travel about two miles through
the city before we came to Joe's residence. We
were immediately admitted into the audience room
by the master of ceremonies, and found his majesty
engaged in conversation with the gentlemen who
had preceded us from the boat. The reader must
bear in mind that at Nauvoo, Mr. Smith is prophet,
Ipriest and king, and will therefore pardon its if we
use lemon when speaking of him applicable to the
character he claims. Ho was dressed in military
costume, black morocco boots reaching to the knee,
laced up at the side and tasseled off with silk, large
gold spurs, white pantaloons, a splendid gold brooch,
i a military coat, with two splendid gold epaulettes, a
military cap with three largo black ostrich feathers,
en elegant sword, and a large diamond ring on his
finger. In conversation with strangers he is vet ,
affable, full of fun and frolic, and jovial as " - - " e is
except when talking on rel igr i gNing himself merry
' quit° dogmatical.., !Pik° had landed some time be-
W hcfteiirquested the privilege of lecturingupon
guwenology and mesmerism. Joe said it was all a
humbug got up to gull the people and get their mo
ney—he had had his head felt ono hundred times,
and by some of the best phrenologists in the coun
try. The phrenologist would come and place his
hand upon the back of his head and say, "you have
a large organ of amativeness, "you love the seamen."
"And so I do, " said Joe, " I acknowledge I love '
the women, and where is the matt that don't," rais
ing at the same time a great laugh in which we all
joined heartily. I thought of Bennet's account of
Joe's amours, and I suppose the rest of the company
thought of it too, especially when they saw the num
ber of handsome girls and women there were about
his establishment. While Joe was conversing, an
officer of high rank (I supposed by his uniform,)
entered the room. It was perfectly astonishing to
ace tire servility with which he approached his mas
ter. lie came in, bowing low as he entered, his
cap in his right hand, and the despatches or papers
in Iris left, and stood at my left hand, leaning a little
forward, his head inclined to the right, with his fixed
intently upon his majesty, who was standing about
eight feet in front. Without deigning to notice him,
his majesty kept the officer standing in that position
a long time, on purpose as I supposed to let us see
the perfect subserviency of the people. At length
he gave him a nod when he stepped forward and
delivered the papers.
Mr. Smith presently changed the conversation to
that of a religions character. He said that there had
been no Christianity since the days of Constantine
until the Latter Day Saints. The church of Rome
l and of the Protestant sects had become corrupt, from
the crown of the head to the sole of the foot—yes,
corrupt to the very extremity of the tee nail, (suit
ing the onion to the word, and kicking out his foot
violently at the same time.) The Methodist Church
was not only corrupt as the rest, but they believed in
blasphemous contradiction and absurdities. Their
discipline reads, " God is a being without body or
parts, " and what sort of a God is that, gentlemen l
It is a perfect nonsense,—" without body or parte,"
—who corn understand or tell any thing about such
a God ;it is not the God of the Bible. And a little
farther we read, "Jesus Christ is the Son of God,
and Jesus Christ was crucified upon the cross; " and
here is the Methodist God without body or parts
crucified upon the cross! This he said with quite l i
an air, and raised a laugh among the company at our
expense. The company, as supposed, were not suf
ficiently acquainted with theology to understand
these things, and there being an apparent absurdity
in the way he had presented the subject, I thought
a reply necessary, turd had, in addstion, to turn the
laugh on Joe if possible. I accordingly rese and
said: "As Mr. Smith has called the doctrines of the
church, to which I had the honor of belonging, in
question, I would be glad to reply if I could have the
privilege of replying without interruption." "You
shall have the privilege, sir, " he repeated in a pomp
ous manner, and sat down. I replied in substance
as follows :
" Mr. Smith said correctly when Ile stated, we
believed in a God without body or parts, and such
is the God of the Bible. Ile is represented as being
a Spirit, a pure spiritual essence, John 4 : 34, " High
as the Heaven turd deeper than hell," Job 11, 8.
'Behold the heaven of heavens cannot contain
thee. " 1 Kings 8, 27. " Whither shall Igo from

The following . account of an interview with Jue
Smith, contithiinz some curious particulars, well
worth reading. We tike it from a communication
concerning lowa and the west in the Pittsburg
Christian Advocate.
A'attvco--. 7 0e Smith the Vvrmmn—
c.
"Do not I fill heaven and earth said, the Lord."
Jet. 23: 23. a Ile filleth all in all." Eph. 1: 23.
Such gentlemen, is the account the Dime g ives us
of Cod. But Mr. Smith would have you believe
that God has a body and parts ; and if a body he
must be located. De would have you believe he is
a great man, and the Bible says he is as high as the
llcavenl, and deeper than hell ! A great man, reach
ing from heaven to hell ; a tall than that, I think
gentlemen (and then the company raised the laugh
upon Joe.) Again the Blide says he fills heaven
and earth. If that be the case and he is a greatbody,
hiimust necessarily crowd off of the earth every body
else, and there is no room for Mr. Smith and mc.
And then the company raised the laugh on poor Joe
again, which appeared to irritate him considerably.
. .
I further stated that the Bible taught us, that
Jesus Christ possessed two distinct natures, the God
head and the manhood, and quoted Hebrews 2 : 14,
18. Forasmuch as the children are partakers of
flesh and blood, he also himself likewise, took part
of the same "—.. for verily he took not on him the
nature of angels, but he took on him the seed of Abra
ham, " &c. Here some being, or character, is rep
resented as taking on himself something else ; and
what is that? The Deity takes the humanity; the
God-head associates with itself the human nature;
not sinful nature as some tell us, but human nature.
And that human nature was subject to suffering ;
he was hungry, thirsty, was weary, slept, was sub
ject to pain, Ws soul was" exceeding sorrow fill, even
unto death," &c. Now we believe that it was the
human body that was crucified ; not the divinity ; it
was that which he took on himself that was crucified,
not the Divine nature which took the human, as is
plainly shown in Hebrews, 2: 14. Forasmuch
then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood,
he also himself likewise took part of the sonic, that
through death he might destroy him that had the
power of death. " The company can clearly see from
• this explanation of the subject that Mr. Smith has
done us injustice, that the doctrine we believe ac
cording to the Scriptures, and neither contradictory
nor absurd."
He arose when I had finished, and replied with
great warmth. He said I had misconstrued the
Scriptures, that the Bible said God had eyes, hawk
feet, &c., and what are we to understaegleat deal
he has no hands and feet? linonotthinkworth
more to the same p uri ,—...rs with. As soon us he
while to Ito', ,ett the room, to all appearance eon
lis t ..y vexed. The next I saw was of his majes
ty he was in the yard is front of his house. Look
ing
up the street I saw a company of cavalry in full
uniform, coming down, preceded by a fine brass
band, tuning their instruments to notes of sweetest
melody. An officer of high rank led up a splendid
black home elegantly equipped holster, pistols, &c.
&c.; the horse appeared to be rather mettlesome at
fast, the officer at length succeed in bringing him
up to the block, mid placing his master's feet in the
stirrups, his majesty rode out into the street. Some
of the company then led tip the horses for Joe'l
women, four in number and assisted them to mount;
his women paraded on his left.
The general then next in command mounted, and
his women, three in number, mounted their steeds.
Then another officer and his three women. They
all marched up and formed in the roar of his majes
ty and his harem; the gentlemen on the right, and
the females on the left. In the meantime the caval
ry arrived, bearing three stand of colors, and para
ded in file on the side of the street. His majesty
and suite then marched forward past the troops, who
saluted him in handsome style with swords, colors
and music. As soon as he was past the cavalry,
they wheeled by platoons and formed in his rear.—
They all then marched out to the parade about three
miles distant to review the troops. This NV, the
last I saw of Joe.
Some of the company went out to the parade and
reported that as near as they could judge there were
about 5000 men under arms.
No doubt many of the readers of the Advocate
will marvel at this account. I marvel at it myself.
I am perfectly astonished that men and women can
be found in this enlightened land that believe all
this pageantry, all this show of military glory, is in
any way connected with the religion of the mcci:
and lowly Jesus! How unlike the religion of Him
1 who declared his " kingdom is not of this world."
How unlike the proceedings of those holy men who
said " the weapons of our warfare are not carnal."
To see Joseph Smith, with his sword and pistols,
with his military hat and three ostrich feathers, like
a Mahornedan pacha with three tails, pretending to
be a prophet of the Lord, a preacher of righteous
ness, believed in by thousands, is one of the won
ders of the age. But why should we wonder at this,
when we see a large portion of Europe, bowing
down before crucifixes, counting beads, adorning
saints, angels and images. Alas ! poor human
nature.
In my text, I intend to give an account of Smith's
pretended Egyptian mummies and ancient records
written on blank paper, which I was permitted to
see by paying 20 cents, and to hear interpreted by
Smith's mother the prophetess. The Nattvoo tem
ple is unlike any thing else on earth.
