The Gazeltc ol a Iater date contains some
ndditional facts', that may prove of somc in
lerest :
Thc Confcrence which was held iu this
city last month, was convcncd by a call
(V-m Sydncy Rigdon. I( was numcrously
allendcd, and rcsultcd in the cstnblithment
nl a branch of Mnrmons enlirelv distinct
from that at Nauvoo, and undcr a dilferent
name. That is called lhc "Uhnrch ot tlie
Laller Day Saint-." this is denominated
"theChurch ofChrist." Thoy bolh, how
cver, ackndwledge thc "Book of Mormon"
and thc "Book of Covenants" as lhc word of
God, and as of equal authorily wilh thc Bi
blc The principal difTerence belwecn ihcm
is, ihat lhc Pittsburgh Mormons, to their
credit bc itspoken, repudiate and adjurcthc
"spiritual wife syslem," lhc dogn.a thal "it
is sQmetimcs lawful lo Iic," and assert thc
duty of obedience to thc laws ofthe land.
Thc government ofthe two sccts is very
similar. The principal Icgislative body is
called the ''G,uorum of Seventy-lhrce." This
nuorum is composed of thosc who have bcen
ordained "prophels, pricsts and kings unto
... ' t. r..u :.ur:..
God." This quorum is now full, in the Pitls-
burgh branch, and sixty-lwo were prcscnt
at the lalc Conferance.
Thc Iiighest execulivc oflicer is called the
"First President." Sidney Sigdon cnjoys
this office, and thc manner in which hcal
tnined it, is so curious that we cannot but
copy thc account of it from the"Messenger,"
ofthe 15th of April. Afier the new Church
had bcen organized. and lhc "Quorum ol
Scvcrty-threc" was full and had rcceived the
chargc ofthe jnstitulor, President Rigdon,
who had bcen" ordained bythc prophetjoe
Smilh himself.
Thc account procceds :
"Thc President ihen said ihc quorum is
now full was organized agreeably to the
paltern of heaven, and he had now so far
done what God had commandcd him, he
thereforc surrendcred the control ar.d man
acment ofthe kingdom of God inlo their

Whercupon Elder Joscph M. Colo arosc
and nominaled him as first President of this
kingdom and Church, and to stand as proph-
e(, seer,revelator ana iransiaior, io uus
church and kingdomof Christ ofthe last
days, which was seconded. The vote was
pulby W. E. McLellin, one oflhe Sccreta-
ries. and was carried bv an unanimous vote,
cvery mcniberofthe quorum stai.ding on his
feet. Itwas then put to the whole church,
and was carried in thc affirmativc, without a
disscnlingvoice.
The new "First President" was tlicn con-
secrated by cach member of ihe Q,uorum
coming forward and taking him by the hand,
and makingasolemn pledgc lo "s'jindby
him nnd h!a famil v in all riffhtcousness before
God until Ihe time of the end," and until
they shall "mect llie son oi uou, onAioum
Olivet, and the cnilh is redeemed." Thc
Messtngcr says the ccne was of a most ini-

in all candor, they arc decidcdly cood. Al

our profession, I should think a Iivingmight
be madc at many of these "county seats,"' as
therc are plenty ofnnimals to bcsWmirtjand
Mihvaukic isagood markct for ''skins and
peltries."
As to the numbcr of lawyers in Mihvaukic,
their name is "Iegion." Something over
10 slick out their shinglcs. and wait with all
ll.e tihilosophv oflzak Walton foranibble.
They arc for thc most part young men of
sanguinc icmperui.ieiu, vvii.i iumtipauu.i

West, and which seem Iiighest in lliosc who
Iravclled thc greatcst distancc to get therc,
and thosc who comc last.
Thc population of this Toivn is about
7000, madcupof nativesof evcry dcscription,

aright smart chancc for a school tcachcr

You wish to know, also, which polilical
party is in thc ascendancy. In reply I would
say, politics in Mihvaukic arcmightyuecer
tain' and if you should concludc to comc here
to rcside, you will find it expedient not to
bring a singlc polilic with you, and then
don't get yoursclf too dceply commitlcd on a
shortacquaintance,or you may have to craw
fish in order to kcep in the ranksof thcstrong
cst party. This operation is attended with
ashght degree ofmorlification to thc indi

Asio the other matters of information you

gentlcmen appear to ron lo seed inthiscli

bound to cxplain than to account for thc
witness ofthe milk ofthe cocoa-nut.
I have thus endeavorcd togive youa fair
statement in answer toyour queslions and if
the inducemenls for emigralionarcnot such
as you expected, blame not me who have
wntten reritie sans paur. I have not given
you all this information to deler you from

which we are uow reaping. No, sir, if therc

and to convince you ofthis, I fiereby tendcr

The Postmaster at Mil waukie is daily cn
cumbered wilh leltersofinquiry for situations
for uon-produccrs, but most frequcntly with
thosc ofthe profession. He has finally con
cluaed to cstablish a burcau for this branch
of business solely, and give the charge and
profits of it to briefless lawyers.
We shall depcnd upon a recommenda
