uscript Prom Curious Eyes Some
Queer Mormon Theories
Interesting Documents.
The demise of David Whltmcr at
Richmond , Mo. , on the 25th of January
last , says the Now York Times , brings
Up many memories of-tho Mormon bible
which took its origin , or n. part of it , at
"Gold Bible Hillin the town oi , Man
chester , four miles from Palmyra , on
the road to Canandaigua. Mr. Whit-
mor was ono of "Tho Three Witnesses"
who swore by everything that was holy
that they saw an angel of God comedown
down with the golden book , which
Joboph Smith interpreted. Subscquntly
nil of these three men renounced Mor-
monlsm and declared their testimony
false.
The Smith family came hero from
Vermont , which state at that time
about 1815 was very much stirred re
garding the mysteries of the divining
rod. The elder Joseph Smith did odd
jobs all about the neighborhood. The
younger Joseph Smith ( who was after
ward the founder of the Mormons ) gave
his assistance occasionally. Ono day.
in September , 1819 , Joe's father and
brothers were engaged in dJgginga well
for Mr. Clark Ghaso , and Joe was
lounging about the work with some of
Mr. Clark's children when the stone
which resembled the child's foot , was
thrown out of the well. The Chase
children claimed the curiosity , as it was
considered , but Joe seized and retained
it , subsequently claiming that by Its use
ho was enabled to discover the where
abouts of stolen property , locate the
place where treasure was buried and
such like impostures until the. alleged
finding of the magic spectacles with the
golden hook the spectacles thencefor
ward taking the place of the stone.
This small stone was the famous "peck
stone" with which young Joseph Smith
claimed miraculous powers. In a kneel
ing posture , with a bandage on his oycs ,
so luminous was the sight without it ,
with the stone in a largo white stove
pipe hat , ho saw things unutterably
wonderful. Ho could reveal , full too
well , the place where stolen property or
wandering flocks could bo found. Cas
kets of gold stored away by the Span
iards or Captain Kidd , coffers of gems ,
oriental treasures , the "wealth of Ormus
and of Ind"gleamed beneath the ground
in adiacent Holds and woodlands. Dig-
, glng became the order of the night and
sloop that of the day. Fathers and
brotnors , decoyed neighbors , and all
who could bo hired by cider or strong
drink were organized into a digging
phalanx. They sallied forth in the
darkness. Solemn ceremonies prefaced
the work. Not a sod was disturbed by
the spades , till Joe's mystic wand , the
witch hazel , guided by the sacred stone ,
, pointed out the golden so nowhoro. Entire -
tire silence was ono condition of success.
When hours had passed and the answer
ing thud on the priceless chest was
about to strike the ear , some ono in a
rapture of expectance always broke the
spell by speaking , the riches were spir
ited away to another quarter , and the
digging must bo resumed another night.
This air of mystery prepared the way
for greater protections on the part of
Smith. Only a mile from the dwelling
house of the Smith family was the farm
of Alonzo Sanders , which included
what is to-day known as the Gold Bible
Hill. To Joe Smith it was known as
"tho Hill Cumorah , " whore the Angel
Moroni announced to him the presence
of the "Golden Plates , " giving an ac
count of the fate which attended the
early inhabitants of America. With
thebo plates would bo found the only
means by which they could bo road , the
wonderful spectacles known as the
M "Urim and Thummim. " Joe was not
averse to such a revelation , for his hazel
rod and his "peek stono" had already
failed him. There had been various
religious awakenings in the neighbor
hood , and when the various sects begin
to quarrel over the converts Joe arose
and announced that his mission was ta
restore the true priefathopd. Ho ap
pointed a number of meetings , but no
ono seemed inclined to follow him as
the loader of the now religion. In Sep
tember , 18215 , an angel appeared to him ,
forgave his many lapses from grace , and
announced the golden plates.
These plates , however , were not found
for several years. In the meantime Joe
Smith had been absent at Susquohunnn
and other places to work upon the re
ligious aide of his assertions.
The tlmo having come to secure the
treasure , Smith returned to Palmyra
and commenced to dig for the golden
plates. The late William Van Camp ,
of Lyons , told the writer that as a boj
at the time ho heard that ono night the
epades struck a strong box. Tlnmdoi
and lightning followed. The box sank
deeper , and Smith explained the loss bj
the lack of faith on the part of the dig
gers. At last the plates were secured
on the night of September 22 , 1820 , the
prophet relating that ho had boon hit
bard by the chief devil , who wished U
have the plates remain concealed. O :
the three witnesses named above Mar
tin Harris came back to this vicinity
and died hero ; Oliver Cowdory moved
. to Missouri with the Mormons and was
expelled , and Duvld Whitmor aban
doned them to their fate.
Time would fail us to give many o
the details of the alleged translation o
the plates in the small farmhouse in
Susquohanua. No ono about hero hue
any faith in the book , Clark Cliaso over
, refusing to make a box in which tlu
' plates might bo transported to Susque
hanna , his prospective pay being in tlu
of the book. So Smith hid then
i a bag of beans and took them ovei
to Susquehanna on horseback. Tin
translation from the plates was a mattoi
of several weeks , Martin Harris , o
Palmyra , furnished the money for the
work. When It was done Joe Smith one
the three witnesses brought the tranla
tion here. At thattimo from Soptom
bor. 1829 , to March , 1830 Mr. Van
Camp ( quoted above ) and Major Johr
II. Gilbert , were working in the olllci
of the Wayne Sentinel , E. 13. Grandin
proprietor. During these months "The
Book of Mormons" was in process o
printing. The otllco was in the thirc
story of a building now known aa tlu
"Exchange How , " in the prlncipa
street of Palmyra. The foreman was
Mr. 'Pomeroy" Tucker , who aftorwuri
published a work on Mormonism. Mujoi
Gilbert was a compositor and also i
dancing-ma&tor. His duties in the lat
ter calling took him. away from hit
"cuso"60 froqently that Van Camp "dis
trlbuted" in order to give him a chance
to Work the next day. The "copy" was
on ruled paper an expensive thing it
these days and the lottery were EI
closely crowded that words like "and1
or "tho" were divided at the end of tlu
Hue. The copy was in Co\vJury's hand
writing , but it was produced from <
tightly-buttoned coat , every morning bj
nyrum" Smith. Ono day's supply only
was givcit at n time , and this was taken
away at night.
There was no mark of punctuation in
the copy a sore trial to both Tucker
and Gilbert in "reading nroof. " At
such times Cowdoryoccasionally "hold
the copy. " In the abeenco of Cowdery
the proofreader often resorted to the or
thodox bible to verify eomo foggy pas
sage. The "matter5 was "paged" so
that thirty-two pages could bo printed
Hoi's "Smith" six-
at a time on ono of
column hand presses. After the sheets
had been run through once and properly
dried , they wcro reversed and printed
on the other side. The bookbinder than
folded them by hand and severed them
with an ivory paper cutter. The result
was that tho'2,500 largo sheets made
5,00 .smtxll sheet witn sixteen pages
printed an each sldo.
It seems to bo very well eottlcd , both
from direct and circumstantial evidence ,
that the alleged translation was
adaptedif not moro closely copied , from
a book entitled ' 'TheManuscript Funo , "
which had been written by a roving
minister named Solomon Spauldingand
which ho had tried in vain to have pub
lished. This manuscript was in a print
ing office nt Pittsburg for several
months , and was readily accessible to
Sidney Rigdon , who was engaged in the
translation and in the subsequent spread
of Mormonism , Rigdon afterward be
came an apostate , and died in Friend
ship , Allegany county , a few years ago.
The original manuscript of Spaulding's '
work was lost for many years ; but in
1880 it was discovered in the Sandwich
Islands , and it is now in the library of
Hieam college , in Ohio.
But what became of the original
manuscript of the Mormon bibloV This
is where David Whitmor becomes of
interest. There were , years ago , ru
mors that ho had these pages in his
possession , and the writer sent to him a
plain inquiry , which brought back this
answer :
RICHMOND , Mo. , Doc. 27,1&79.
Dear Sir : In reply to your inquiry can say
that I tun ono of the witnesses referred team
am yet alive.
I have in my possession the original manu
scripts referred to , and they are in a perfect
state of preservation , and I know of what I
speak. Yours truly , etc. ,
DAVID WitiTMEit.
Some months later the following came
from a member of the family :
David Whittncr requests mo to say to you
that it is not wisdom In him to grant your re
quest at this tlmo to have a page of the
original manuscript photographed , cto.
If granted , ho would be called upon by
others , perhaps in the same way , and it
might lead to much annoyance , if nothing
more.
They are in his possession in a good state
of preservation , and have been seen by many
of our citizens , including lawyers , doctors ,
professors of learning , editors , and preachers
of various denominations. Ho regards his
as a sacred trust , and wo feel curious to
know the impart of your article , as well as
the character of the illustration , if any is in
tended. Of course , ho could not comply
under any circumstances without knowing
what would accompany the insertion of the
photograph.
It is known that Mr. Whitmor was
dared by the Mormons to produce the
manuscript ; also that ho was threatened
if ho did not produce it. To neither of
these hostile actions did ho over pay
the slightest heed. It is the universal
opinion that only part of the manuscript
over found its way into print as part of
the Mormon Biblo. Therefore the ex
posure of the whole manuscript to thn
world is an event that is looked forward
to with the greatest interest by all those
who have made the Mormons and their
doings n matter of study and investiga
tion. There may bo much in the pages
now about to see the light which will
explain some of the early record of the
Mormons by furnishing the links thai
are missing , and by reconciling testi
mony that is conflicting. The result ol
the exposure , therefore , cannot but be
beneficial all round.

The Negro In Southern Fn'ctorlcs.
Boston Journal : It has been a ques
tion frequently present in the minds of
many as to what is the future of the
negro population in the industrial econ
omy of the southern states. Is it to be
conflncd to.agricultural pursuits and tc
these occupations requiring little
mental energy or mechanical aptitude !
To presume that such is to bo the case
at once presupposes that the negro is incapable -
capable of a higher order of intollv
genco , which would not bo it safe as
sumption , with the limited opportunitioi
ho has had during the comparatively
short period that marks the great trans
formation in his condition from servl
tudo to freedom. The effects of hii
former state of bondage still linger ii :
his surroundings , which alone arc
enough to humiliate his social circum
stance to a lower caste than that belonging
longing to the white man. But thii
caste demarcation will probably always
exist , till the intellect of the negro as
sorts itself equal to that of the white
man , which is beyond the probability o
things.
The negro labor question is becoming
or will soon become a very momontoui
ono for the south to solvo. It cannot b <
supposed that the agricultural or ovoi
menial vocations are wholly to nbsorl
the negro labor in the south. Tlu
query , then , is immediately directed t <
what profitable use can bo made of thii
class of people in the mechanical ocwii
pations that are so rapidly engaging tlu
capital and attention of the south ? Certainly
tainly something will have to bo doni
to resolve this into a practicability
suitable to future circumstances , ' -'he
negro is not going to emigrate from tlu
warm climate that is ho congenial to hi
nature , or to a laud for which ho has n <
fondness in the way of tradition or fan
cy. Ho is a fixture in the social statu
of the south , and as such he must b <
taken care of , if he docs not take care o
himself. There ho is , and whether o :
not ho is a desirable competitor witl
, the whltoman , he is destined to worl
'his way into the factory in tome capac
ity or other , and rather than that lu
should go in badly equipped , his cum
bilitios should bo studied and intclll
gently directed to a future usefulness
The southern textile mills will , in time
bo moro or less dependent on negrc
help , however earnestly this conditior
may bo fought against. The native
white population that now seek the fac
tory will find their occupation uncon
genial by the side of the negro opera'
live , and other pursuits will bo taker
up. This has been the case in a not un
like manner in the factory history o
Now England , of the native born bcin {
supplanted by the foreign born , socin
degrcdntion infiuincing the change it
either CUBO , though in Now Englanc
there Imvo not been the strong elements
ments of caste and color to content
with.
If the negro population of the soutli

white and black competition in whicl
the labor of the latter ahull suviilun
that of the former in the ordniari
duties of mill work. But statistics seen
o domonBtrnto it to be a fact tlmt the
negro population is fncrcnsinf with n
rnpidjstridoa as the white population.
In the dccndeff-om 1870 to 1880 the whlto
wpulatlori of the United Stnfos , Includ-
ng forelffn"born , increased 20 per Cent ,
while the colored or blnck population
ull native born increased over 84 per
cent. The increase in the latter in-
etanco was a natural one , and was with
out foreign accessions , and confined
chiefly to the Bouthorn states. The
lorcenlngo of increase was a little over
11 per cent in the colored population
KJtwocn 18CO and 1870 , but the disturb-
ng political causes of that period can
easily account for this slight augmenta
tion. Tlioro is no evidence To show
othonvlBO than tlmt the relative growth
of the colored population is as great
now as it was from 1870 to 1880 , and
such being the case it is within the
natural course of events for the negro
[ assert a position in the factory oper
ations of the south which is now re
gained by the native whlto , who in turn
will sock other fields of labor whore the
color is not in question.
Every person is interested in their
own affairs , and if this moots the eye of
any ono who is suffering from the effects
af a torpid liver , wo will admit that ho
is interested in getting well. Got a
bottle of Prickly Ash Bitters , use it as
directed , and you will always bo glad
you read this item.
Germans In France ami
Chicago Ncwsl I should think it
would fill the Parisians with a sense of
respect for Gorman administrative
genius to see their finest hotels under
Gorman management. The Continental
is the hotel palace of the city. It is the
scone of the best social events , military
fetes and banquets.- Its German man
ager is a man whoso like ono docs not
meet every day another Sam Turner
with a dozen tongues. Given 600 guests
in the house ho never slips a name or
forgets a face. When trade in language
is dull ho amuses himself by running
over the schedules of his floor diagrams
in all the accents from Turkish to Chi
nook. This is training. Once a Ger-
mnn gets hold of anything ho never lets
go. The borvico rooms on the several
floors are run by Gorman waiters. Peer
into one of them at any hour of the day
or night , and there sit two or three
young men in full dress gravely teach
ing ono another foreign idioms or ac-
ccnts , or studiously poring over a gram
mar not German. Search around
among the servants for French natives ,
and the few found are carrying vessels ,
mopping floors and making beds
women This is equally true of most of
the leading hotels , whore any language
suvo French is spoken , and oven in the
strictly French hotels the porter and
interpreters are usually German.
The Frenchman , content to regard
his own as the only language worth
speaking , is less cosmopolitan than the
German. The penalty of his egotism
is pain to every ono but himself. There
is something moro than mere drift in
the spreading out of the German
family. They have discovered the po
tency of 'their cheese-paring superior
ity. Away from their own country they
they are not found grubbing or beg
ging. A tax-devouring despotism has
taught them frugality , until every
where abroad , among the loose and
generous nations , they have become
quiet money savers. In not many gen
erations to como they will have per
meated every prosperous people in the
world. It is rather comical to hear the
high howl Englishmen raise over their
peaceful invasion of London. There
are moro than fifty thousand Germans
in London , living cheaply and hoard
ing their shillings. They dig no sewers
and break no stones , either. Hotels ,
restaurants and counting houses are
their havens.
This reminds mo that the celebrated
"American bar" of Paris , in the Chat
ham , if conducted by a crowd of young
Germans who never got further west
than England. They are a success , for
if there is ono thing a Gorman can do
better than another it is to keep bar.
