Sermon Against e'oljgumy.
There was a large attendance of outsiders
at the Conference of the Latter Day Saints
in Kirtland, Ob'ro, yesterday, the attraction
being the sermou by President Joseph Smith
against the doctrine of polygamy. Mr.
Smith began his sermon by the emphatic
declaration : "I have no belief in this philos?
ophy of polygamy. I am identified with the
people, many of whom have gone over with
the extremists and cast their lot with the
advocates of plural marriages. I desire to
stale publicly that I am not of their num?
ber. I need make no personal onslaught on
those who accept the polygamous clause iu
the Mormon religion, nor shall I. Weought
to take it for granted that God knew what
He was about when He created the world.
When tho earth was ready for mau, God
placed Adam aud Eve in the garden of
Eden. If he had intended two wives for
Adam, he would have given them to hint.
When Adam aud Eve were joined together
they were immortal, and the marriaga was
celestial. Now there came a time when it
was necessary to begin populating the earth
over again. Men and women bad sinned,
and God wished to crush wickedness out of
the world. If he had made a mistake at the
creation in giving Adam but one wife there
was a grand opportunity to reverse the order
of things and give Noah two wives. Did God
do so'/ No. He commanded Noah to take
one wife, and his servants one wife. Do not
you, my brethren, believe that God is wise
enough to have improved that opportunity
to rectify any error in judgment in parctli
ing out to man but one helpmate? But liod
bad another opportunity to correct the mis
take, if one bad been made. When ho led
Levi and his wife cut of the land of Judea,
it God had desired to reverse His judgment
iu giving Noah but a single wife, he cculd
have put himself right. But he did not do
it. I take these three great events as proof
j positive, unanswerable and overwhelming,
that God intended man to have but one
I wife." The speaker wont ou to say that tho
( Latter Day Saints stood committed to the
I doctrine of single marriages. Further proof
of the error of polygamy, he said, was found
in the twenty-third and twenty-fourth verses
of the second chapter of Genesis.
There was afterward a public marriage.
Sister Mary Goodin, of Pittsburg, being
joined to Brother John W. Lake, of Canada
There was also a public baptism.
Canada Knights ok Labor.?The fol?
lowing circular letter, bearing on the
knights of labor question, was read in the
different Roman Catholic churches of Que?
bec yesterday :
Archbishop of Quebec, 5th of April, 1887:
in September, 1884, tho Holy See, consult?
ed by me on tho society of the knighta of
labor, condemed it under pain of grievous
siu, and charged the bishops to deter their
diocesans therefrom, as I did in my circular
letter?No. 131?of the 2d of February, 1S85.
After representations mado by their lord?
ships, the bishops of the United States, the
Holy ^ee has suspended, until further ordersr
the effect of that sentence. In consequence,
I authorize confessors of the diocese to ab?
solve knights of labor on the following con?
ditions, which it is your bounden duty to ex?
plain to them, and to make them observe :
First?That they confess and sincerely re?
pent the grievous siu which they committed
by not observing the decree of September,
1S84.
Second?That they be ready to aban?
don this society so soon as the Holy See
shall ordain it.
Third?That they sincerely and explicitly
promise absolutely to avoid all that may
either favor Masonic and other condemned
societies, or violate the laws either of jus?
tice, charity or of the State.
Fourth?That they abstain from every
promise and from every oath by which they
would bind themselves either to obey blind?
ly all the orders of the directors of the socie?
ty, or keep absolute secrecy, even towards
tho lawful authorities. (See "Discipline" p.
217.) In behalf of these penitents only, and
by virtue of an indult, I prolong the time of
the paschal communion until the Feast of
the Ascension, inclusively.
Please accept, sir, the assurance of my
sincere attachment.
t E. A. Card. Taechereau,
Archbishop of Quebec.
Another Attempt on the Like ok the
Czar.?The Vienna correspondent of the
London Morning Post says a report is cur?
rent to the effect that another attempt to
murder the Czar was made on the Marskoy
road, in St. Petersburg. last Wednesday,
?uxi that a studeutaod woman wero arrested
wj;i were carrying bombs uuder their plaids.
A dto?*t?n frora St. Petersburg to the Lon
don Vaili ? ?Ve "'???? says : "Themost alarming
reports respiting th? Czar have been in
circulation here. One rumor was to the
effect that a mine h*d been discovered un?
der the imperial palace at Gatschina, but it
is learned on the best authority that this
report ia untrue ; also that no arrests have
been made at Gatschina, as was reported.
Oa Wednesday evening, however, when the
Czar was driving to the Gatschina station
a man aud woman were seized at the
comer of Nevski Prospect and the Great
Morskaia ten mioutes before the Czar's car?
riage passed. Another person tried to pre?
sent a petition as tho Czar passed, but was
arrested before he could reach the carriage.
It ba* not yet bsen ascertained positively
whether or not the persons arrested bad any j
cr'.minul intentions. The Czar was in per- j
feot health and excellent spirits." I
Earthquake Shocks.?Two shocks of
earthquake occurred at Burlington, Vt.,
yesterday afternoon, the first rather light,
at abaut 2:30, and the second ten minutes
later. The second shock wa3 very heavy,
resembling the concussson from a large gun
followed by a jar of fifteen seconds' dura?
tion. Doors ami windows rattled, and those
living in the third story of blocks eay the
buildings seern to sway to and fro. People
ran into the streets in a panic, and many
supposed that a terrific explosion had oc?
curred Dear by.
