Tin: Mormons The following informa
tion relative to tins singular people, is con-
tamed in an extract of a letter dated at Lex
ington, Missouri, June 18.
•• You may recollect that, some months
ago, the people of Jackson drove all the Mor-
nio'.s out of the county, on account, as they
alleged, of improper conduct, such as stir
ring up seditious feeling in the slaves and
Indians, stealing hogs, cattle, dee., and, worst
of all, threatening to take possession of the
whole of this upper country, either (according
to Smith’s revelation) by purchase or by
blood. Some of them had even predicted
that In lopcndence, the county of Jackson,
would flow with blood—the men should be
-lain, and the women become their slaves.
Jo addition to this, they arc of odious fame in
s . w'ful particulars. When driven from
Jackson, they took refill© in the adjoining
counties, principally iu Clay county, where
they remained in peace and inaction* Some
time in May, there was a great bustle among
them—selling off their patches of corn for
gm.s, bu\ iug gu;Jocks, powder and lead,
manufacturing pistols and swords, and collec
ting themselves into a body in Clay county,
from which place they threatened to cross
over and attack their old neighbors, to recov
er the new Jerusalem from tho infidels.
*• About tho same time, letters were writ
ten from tho State of Ohio, informing tho
people of Jackson of the party that were
starting from that place to join their brethren
i:i Missouri. At lirst we thought it all
hoax, not believing it possible that so many
knaves and fools could be mustered iu that
State ; nor could we believe it until they had
actually arrived. The arrival of such a body
of armed troops, whose object was to butch
er a portion of our citizens, aroused the
whole country against them.
••The Jackson people offered them twice
•die valuation of all their possession, which
was refused. They had collected in Clay
county, and built a number of boats, to cross
their forces over. Last Monday was, no
doubt, the time they intended to cross, and
would most probably have done so, had it not
been for the number who went from this
county to oppose them. Jackson county
could raised about 900 men, and 400 went
from Lafayette ; about 300 more would have
marched m a day or two, if they bad been
required. 1 know we had neither law nor
gospel on our side, but self preservation urg
ed us to pursue that course, for we knew
dint our County would bo the next to suffer
from their presence. If they had crossed the
i .ecr I very much question if one would have
!-t\-n left to tel! the Life. No ip tartars would
'tore lent given. We would hare hilled .nasi
•f them /.cjorc they got across the river.
“ Smith now tells them, (the Mormons,)
that it does not mutter about building the tem
ple yet—that they may wait 59 or a hundred
ye .rs longer. Meanwhile, they will locate
somewhere else. I am told there are a
g i a lly number about to leave live country ”

Tho above is among tlio earliest of our recorded
opinions on the subject of nullification. Our “ uni

‘existence But our friend of the Sentinel thinks it
strange, that we could under these circumstances,
have supported so late as October, 1833. an avowed
nuliiucr for tiie Legislature, &.e. For the purpose
of removing from iiis mind this difficulty,, wo would
refer him to our fust reply to his first “ Boh Short’s”
notice of ue,. in which we distinctly stated that so
long afi we had any hope of tho old Tioup party’s
discarding the doctrine as a party, we felt ourselves
bound in good faith to support it; and we did support
it, diseased members and all, so long as a hopo ro.
maiiled. But when-that party became extinct, it no
longer needed our aid; and the new oue (which pro.
fesses to occupy its place) affected as it is, net only
in its members, but rotten with the fulspmo disease
to the very core, never had and never will have tho
slightest claim, either Upon our support or indulgence.

The nullification, alias State Rights, alias Wig,

(the gambling leaders of tho coalition) would say,
put out its last trump,” in the desperate acid hope

Governor Troup’s formal acknowledgment of Iris
predilections in favor of their cause, is evidently the
last card iu the bands of tlio nullificrs upon wliioh
their hopes rest, as calculated to turn the fortunes of
the game now an sadly against them. The handlo
they are making of that wretched and mortifying
instance of the wcakneMof poor human nature, (Gov.
Troup’s letter to tho nullification committee of Ma

fortunes from impending ruin, is, however, better
calculated to excite the pity than the ridicule of their
opponents.. The utme of Geofigo M- -Troup they
fondly hope wjll do that-for their cause which prin
