PETERSON & WEST, JOHN TAILOR, PELIVKRED the Tabernacle, Halt Lake Hunday Afternoon, Feb. City, REPORTED BY JOHN IRVlNK. I have been very much interested in the remarks made I y Brother Eraatus Snow, w bo has addressed us. These are precious principles which only the Saints know how to comprehend and appreciate. We are told "that the natural man perceiveth not the things of Godr neither car jie know them, for they are spiritually discerned," and therefore those outside of that influence and spirit which is communicated to the Halnt.il of the fMost High, through obedience to the uospei oitotne boa ot Uodi find it very difficult understand them. But We comprehend them, because God has given unto us His Spirit which takes of the things of God and shows tttem nnto us. I and a few others have been away from here for some time, visiting among our southern brethren; Brother Snow, who has Just spoken to yon, was one of the party.

Bat many of us, folks, have seen plenty of such proceedings, and have had many expeiicnces of this kind; they are nothing new to us at all. And did we ever expect them to get better? We have not so understood it. We are told in the Scriptures, and we have kept teaching it all the while, that "the wicked would grow worse and worse, deceiving and being deceived." That is doctrine which I have believed in for the last 50 years and I have had a good deal of testimony and practical confirmation on that point. We expect that these things will transpire.

It is not necessary that Congress and the Judiciary should set and violation of examples of Constitutionaltyranny law, and attack the fundamental principles of free government and the rights ot man; for there is plenty of that kind of spirit abroad ; yet men who profess to be the conservators of the peace and the maintainers of law join In these nefarious, unholy, tryannical and oppressive measures.

It is strictly insurprised? accordance with my faith; It is strictly in accordance with the Old Testament Scriptures; aud it is strictly in accordance with the Book of Mormon; it is strictly in accordance with the revelations given to as by Joseph Smith, and all these events that have been predicted will most assuredly transpire. But 1 suppose it is necessary that "judgment should first begin at the house of God," and if it does, "where will the wicked and the ungodly appear," when it comes upon them? We are told that the wicked shall slay the wicked. We need not tro ible ourselves about the affairs of the nations, the Lord will manipulate them in Ills own way. I feel full of sympathy for the nation in which we live, and for other nations, in consequence of the troubles with which they are beset and which are now threatening them; yet they do not seem to comprehend the position. I know a little of some of the things hat will transpire among them, and I feel sorry. Do you feel sorry for yourself? Not at all, hot at all. Do you feel sorry for your people? Notatall, not at all. The Lord God has revealed unto us great and eternal principles which reach beyond this earth Into the eternal heavens, and which have put us in the possession of light and truth and intelligence, and promises and blessings that the world are ignorant of and do not and cannot comprehend. I feel every day to bless the name of the God of Israel, and feel like shouting. "Hosanna! Hosauna!! Hosan-na!- !! to the God of Israel, Amen and Amen," who will rule among the nations of the earth, and manipulate things according to the counsel of Ills own will. These are my feelings in reto these matters. But then I feel gard Interested in the welfare of mv brethren and sisters, and when I see thui'r rights interfered with and trampled ruthlessly under foot, I feel that there is something at work that ought not to be,and yet that ts quite necesto teach us some of the principles sary of human nature, that we may be able between the good, the virtuous, the upright and the holy ;aad the impure, the foolish, the vindictive, the corrupt, the lascivious, and those who are trampling under foot the laws and ot eternal truth. tioi has principles revealed unto us certain principles pertaining to trie future which men may take objection to. He has revealed unto us certain principles pertaining to the perpetuity of man and of woman : pertaining to the sacred rights and obligations which existed from the begiuning; and lie has told us to obey these laws. The nation tells us, "If you do we will persecute you and proWhich shall we obey? scribe you." 1 would like to obey and place myself iu subjection to every law of man. then? Am I to disobey the law What of God? lias any man a right to control my conscience, or your conscience, or to tell me I shall believe this or believe the other, or reject this or reject the otner? No man has a right to do it. These principles are sacted, and the forefatheu of this nation felt so and so proclaimed It in the Constitution of the United States, and said "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof." Now. I believe they have violated that, and nave violated their oaths, those that have engaged in these things and passed that law, and those that are seeking to carry it out. Congress and the President of the United States and the Judiciary and all administrators of the law are as much bound by that instrument as I am aud as you are, and have sworn to maintain it inviolate. It is for them to settle these matters between themselves and their God. Tnat is my faith iu relation to this matter. Yet by their action they are interfering with my rights, my liberty aud my religion and with those sacred bind me to my God, to principles tuat iny family, to my wives and my children ; and siiall I be recreaut to alj these noble principles that ought to guide and govern men? No, Never! No, nevkkI NO, NEVER! I can endure more than 1 have done, aud all that God will enable me to endure, I can die for the truth i but I cannot as an honorable man disobey my God at their behest, forsake my wives and my children, and these holy and eternal obligatrample tions under foot that God has given me to keep.aud which reach into the eternities that are to, come. I won't do lt,80 Here the .speaker help me, , God. struck the book on the vigorously desk, and the large audience responded With a loud "Amen." The Constitution expressly says that no law shall be passed impairing the obligation of contracts. But we have entered luto covenants and contracts in our most sacred places, and that, too, la many Instances, before there was any law the same, and yet the atprohibiting made to give the tempt is now being Edmunds law an ex post facto application and to punish us for these contracts which were not criminal, even from the standpoint of our enemies, at the time they were lorined. f myself married my wives long before there was any law upon the subject, and many of you aid the same, by an ex post facto application ofyet laws since enacted the attempt is now made to punish us as criminals. I have never pro tea any law of these United States. and I presume that eome of you, whom our enemies now seek to 'criminate and drag into court as violators of law, can say the name,; Under the present system of things in this Territory harlotry and adultery are vindicated, sustained and unblushing Jy protected, and bonqr&ble and. virtuous wedlock Is 'trampled upon, condemned and punished. Well, what will you do X w'U obey every Constitutional law so far a jGod clvea me ability. What else will you do? I will meet these men as far as I can .without violating principle, and I have done it- - When this infamous Edmunds law was passed I saw that there were features in that which were contrary to law, violative of the Constitution, contrary to Justice and the rights and the freedom of men. But I aid to myself 1 will let that law take )ts aourset j will place myself inaceord-With- lt can. Did I do It? I did. I remember talking to Mr. Florrepont, who was Attorney Geqeral under President Grant's administration," He with bis sou called upon me. They difed with me, and perhaps I can explain my views on this subject our conrersatioa aa well byrneatiox as any, other way.

I desired to place myself in obedience or in as close conformity as law, and thought I practicable to thesee would wait and what the result would be ; and that if the nation can stand these thing I can or we can. These are my feelings. Men and nations and legislators often act foolishly and do things that are unwise, and it is uot proper that a nation should be condemned for the unwise actions of some tew men. Therefore I have sought to place myself in accord with that law. I said to my wives : "We are living in tils building together We were quite .comfortably situated, and we might so have continued, but I said to them that under the circumstances, it will be better for me or for you to leave this place; you can take your choice. They had their homes down here, which they now inhabit; were which quite comfortable. So I said to them, you can go there and I will "stay here, or you can stay at the Gardo House and I will go there or somewhere else; for I wish to conform to this Edmunds law as much as lean." 1 am always desirous to let everything have its perfect working. We talk sometimes about patience having its perfect work. If we have latvs against us I liketo to see them Eassed fair develop and see what opportunity the result will be. These were my feelings then and they are my feelings Well, do you think, then, that the people have been outraged? I most certainly do. Xhc usage has been in all legal trials among all civilized nations to presume that all men are innocent until proven guilty; but we now have test oaths introduced which is another violation of the Constitution aud by which an attempt is being made to hold ail men guilty until they prove themselves innocent. Again : there is a usage which has existed among the civilized nations, and in this nation also, that a man must be tried by a peers, selected from the jury of his vicinage, but the juries selected for toour courts are composed day of our bitter persecutors and our most relentless enemies, and in many instances selected from the lowest and most debased men who can be found or picked up from the gutters. We also have another class of courts improvised fori the occasion in the shape of "U. S. Commissioners' courts," are operated which and run after the order of the ancient notorious "Star Chamber". Such institutions provoke the contempt of all honorable men, and the parties offices place themassuming such selves in a position to be of their fellows. I might enumerate many other outrages, but time will not permit on this occasion. No man's liberties are sale under such administration. What will be the result? The result will be that those that sow the wind will Teap the whirlwind. When men begin to tear down the barriers and tamper with to-da- FEBRUARY 14, 1885. EVENING, y. dis-pis- ed the fundamental principles and institutions of our country they are playing a very dangerous game ana are severing the bonds whten hold society together, and the beginning of these is like the letting out of Irregularities water. The next step that lollowed the Edmunds Act was the introduction of a test oath. The legislation already provided was not good enough for some of our officials here and another portion of the Constitution must be broken to. introduce .a test oath without any authority. I think this was introduced by our Governor. Then comes another class of men called Commissioners, ratner a new idea In American Government. Yet it was thought necessary that extraordinary operations should be entered into in relation to the Mormons. Why? Be cause it is necessary that they should oe ocait witn .differently irom anybody else. Now. I have seen some of my breth ren shot to pieces in cold blood and under tne protection of the State Government, aud the promise of the Governor made to myself and l)r. John M. Bernhtsel, who la sometime ago dead. In Missouri a great deal of that thing was done. In Georsria lately, and in Tennessee acts of the same xlnd have been perpetrated. Now, I want to know if anybody can tell me here is a largo congregation, and many thousands of you acquainted with our history I want to know if any one of you can tell me of any individual that was ever punished according- to law for pea&- it out, li you Killing a Mormon. know it. I do not know of any such thing. Brother Snow says there is not an instance on record Well, I would rather be on the side of the Mormons in that case than on the side of those who are their persecutors and murderers, for they .have' got something to atone for yet which we have not under those circumstances. We have got through With our part of it. The other is not through with yet. There are eternal principles of justice and equity that exist fn the bosom of ana tie, in tils own time, yoa, Will manipulate these things to the counsel of His qwn according will j and with what measure men mete, as sure as God lives it will be measured to them again, pressed down and running take care of themselves as best they may. That is what 1 have told people while I have been la the south to take care of their liberties, to put their trust iu the living God, to obey every constitutional law, and to adhere to all correct principles. But when men tamper with your rights and with your liberties, when the cities are full of spies aud the lowest and meanest of men are set to watch and dog your footsteps; when little children are set in array against their fathers and mothers and women and children are badgered before courts and. made to submit, unand protested, to thewhen glbesof libertiueshuswives and corruptarcmen; bands pitted against each other and threatened with pains, penalties and imprisonment, if they .will not disclose that which among all decent people Is considered sacred, and which no man of delicacy, whose sensibilities had not been blunted by low associations, would ever ask; when such a condition of affairs exists, it is no longer a land of liberty and it is certainly no longer aland of equal rights, and we must take care of ourselves as best we may, and avoid being caught In any of their tt snares. I cannot think that this is aimed entirely at us ; from many circumstances that have transpired, I have been led to believe that whilst we are made the victims, these proceedings are introduced as a political ruse, for the purpose of embarrassing tne incoming administration. What would you do? Would you tight them? No. I would take care of myself as best I can, and 1 would advise my brethren to do the same. Would you resist law? No. As I said before, I can stand it if they can. It is for us to do what is right, to fear God, to observe His laws, and keep His commandments, and the Lord will manage all the rest. But no breaking of heads, no bloodshed, no rendering evil for evil. Let us try and cultivate the spirit of the Gospel, and adhere to the principles of truth. Let us honor our God, and be true to those eternal principles which God has given us to hold sacred. Keep them as sacredly as you would the apple of your eye. And while other men are seeking to we will the Constitution under foot, trample try to maintain It. We nave prophecies something like this somewhere: that the time would come when this nation would do as they are now doing that is, they would trample under foot the Constitution and institutions of the nation, and the Elders of this Church would rally around the standard and maintain those principles which were introduced for the freedom and protection of men. We expect to do that, and to maintain all correct principle. 1 will tell you what you will see by and by. You will see, trouble, trouble, trouble enough in tnese United States. And as I have said before I say y, I tell you In the name of God, Woe I to them that fight against Zion, for God will tight against them. But let us be on the side of human liberty and human rights and the of all correct principles andprotection laws and government, and maintain every principle that is upright and virtuous and honorable, and let the world take the balance if they want, we don't want it. We will cleave to the truth, God being our helper, aud try te introduce principles whereby the will of God will be And done on earth as it is In heaven. we will obey every institution of man for the Lord's sake so far as we can without violating our consciences and doing things that are wrong and improper. God bless you and leadjouln the paths of life, In the name of Jesus. cru-sad- to-da- CORRESPONDENCE. FOR THE OPPORTl' NITY COMMISSION. A CHANCE Very well, what would tou advise us to do?
