THE MORMONS AND MASONIC SYMBOLS

The correspondent of the New York Herald, at the Salt Lake City , writes that :-A co-operative store has been started, and the sign of "Holiness of the Lord' is placed over it, with a painted symbolical All-seeing eye, to notice whether the saints go to the new store of Jesus Christ with all their pharmaceutical prescrip-tions." Polygamy is a sin of gross turpitude which destroys marriage and degrades women. Let the Freemasons on the other side of the Atlantic rise en masse, and crush this attempt at an unwarranted interference with their symbols, and put in force the already enacted condemnation of a contemptible race.

CHALMERS I. PATON.
