Oct. 23rd. News from home dated Sept. 6th, gives the death of George A. Smith, who was buried on the 5th. There are five numbers of the "Deseret News" to Sept. 1st. They give much of the Lee Trial, with comments of adverse papers full of spleen, etc. God will overrule. The Saints are being baptized in to the United Order and the Devil is mad and marshalling his forces. We must marshal ours and endure faithful to the end, and gain the reward of the faithful.
