But is any man still unconvinced of the justness of these strictures relative to the two last cases, let the astounding fact go forth, that _Orin Porter Rockwell_, whom Boggs swore was the principal in his assassination, and accessory to which Mr. Smith was arrested, _has returned home, "clear of that sin_." In fact, there was not a witness to get up an indictment against him. The Messrs. Averys, who were unlawfully transported out of this State, have returned to their families in peace; and there seems to be no ground for contention, no cause for jealousy, and no excuse for a surmise that any man, woman or child will suffer the least inconvenience from General Smith, the charter of Nauvoo, the city of Nauvoo, or even any of her citizens. There is nothing for a bone of contention! Even those ordinances which appear to excite the feeling of some people have recently been _repealed_; so that if the "intelligent" inhabitants of Hancock County want peace, want to abide by the governor's advice, want to have a character abroad grow out of their character at home, and really mean to follow the Savior's golden rule, "_To do unto others as they would wish others to do unto them_," they will be still _now_, and let their own works praise them in the gates of justice and in the eyes of the surrounding world. Wise men ought to have understanding enough to conquer men with kindness. "A soft answer turns away wrath," says the wise man; and it will be greatly to the credit of the Latter-day Saints to show the love of God, by now kindly treating those who may have, in an unconscious moment, done them wrong; for truly said Jesus, "_Pray for thine enemies_." Humanity towards all, reason and refinement to enforce virtue, and good for evil are so eminently designed to cure more disorders of society than an appeal to "arms," or even _argument_ untempered with _friendship_ and the "one thing needful," that no vision for the future, guideboard for the distant, or expositor for the present, need trouble any one with what he ought to do. His own good, his family's good, his neighbor's good, his country's good, and all good seem to whisper to every person--the governor has told you what to do--_now do it_. The Constitution expects every man to do his duty; and when he fails the law urges him; or, should he do too much, the same master rebukes him.
