MORMON WAR.--The St. Louis Reporter Of the
30th ut says The Boreas, arrived yesterday, re-
ports that General Hardin had arrived in Hancock
county with number Of men, and that portion
Of the militia from Pike county had also arrived;
that Gen. Hardin had orders to march into Nauvoo,
if he thought proper to do so, with view to
restore peace. Backenstos, the sheriff of Hancock
county, doubted or denied the authenticity of the
proclamation issued by Governor Ford, and had
warned all armed men to keep out Of the county;
but this probably discovered in season to
prevent any difficulty in relation to the approach of
the troops ordered out by the governor.
Report also says, about fifty picked men had
been sent out by the anti-Mormons, to attack a
party of Mormons, who were said to be collecting
cattle near Warsaw, and it was supposed a fight
would come off on Saturday last between the
partes but this report is questionable The aspect
Of affairs is not quite SO bad it was few days
ago; and, if the proposition Of the Mormons to
leave the country has been finally rejected, it is
probable they will be permitted to remain, without
much more difficulty or danger.
