Mormonism Exposed.— This is a complete and revoltingly ludicrous disclosure of the humbug of the Golden Bible followers of Prophet Joe Smith. It is drawn up by Origen Bachelet at 162 Nassau street, and contains a perfect dissection of the Book of Mormon and evidences of its falsity. The vignette represents Joe at the time the Devil kicked him and his plates into the air.

The book will have a ready sale, as it is curious to see into what deplorable depths of absurdity and credulity the human mind may be driven by wicked imposters.—N. Y. Star
