On Sunday last, considerable excitement
was created in town, by a report that there
had been an extensive ARRAY in Nauvoo, in
which one Of our citizens, Mr.. J. L. Brad.
ley, was said to be badly injured. The
report during the day assumed number Of
forms, and the particulars were not known
until evening, when we among others re.
ceived the following BY the hand of one Of
our citizens. It is not our purpose to in
crease the prejudice against the Mormons
already existing. We therefore forbear
to comment upon the affair, further than
to say, that if they wish to have an oppor-
tunity to leave in the spring, they must
take different course. The people Of
Iowa and Illinois will not long submit to
such things.

We have good reason to hope, that the
ends Of justice may now be accomplished,
in the arrest and punishment Of these men.
Seven men have been arrested, and are
now in prison;-viz: the two brothers
Long, the two Readings, father and son,
Birch, Young and Baxter. Three Of these,
the Longs and Baxter, have been tried and
convicted, and sentenced to be hung on the
18th inst. The trial Of the others was
postponed until week from Monday next,
when they will be put upon their trial
An indictment has been found against Fox,
who made his escape from Johnson. He
had not been retaken at the last accounts
The people in the neighborhood Of Rock
Island, are very much excited upon the
subject, and have manifested a full deter
mination to bring the offenders to Justice.
It is said, that strong suspicious are enter
tanned, that Thomas johnson, who had Fox
in custody, connived at his escape. The
reason Of these suspicious are said to b.,
that Fox was strongly, doably, ironed, and
thatwithout culpabfe neglect or cennivancs
on the part Of Johnson, he could not have
escaped. It is also reported that Fox was
the treasurer Of the band, and had with.
him large amount Of money, which it is
supposed, had some influence upon John
son. These are rather grave charges, and
may perhaps do injustice to Mr.. johnson,
but 1--WE simply give them as they exist,
without comment: At any rate, il is most
unfortunate that Fox escaped. He is said
10 be D great villain, and leader in the
band Of .desperadees tina; infest the coun-
try. Ills certainly the duty Of every good
citizen, to endeavor to bring such men to
justice, and the failure in this instance,
may have given rise to the very severe
imputaiions which have been cast upon
johnson.

If our mother country does not do some.
thing for US, and that soon too, this country
Is lost to her forever. The Hudson Bay
Company have new picketed Fort Vancou-
yer. built two new bastions, mounted eight
additional cannon, and their Annual Yes
sci has just come in under convoy of man
of-war, and they have set their e,nissaries
to work, telling the people that the United
States has cast them of, and that it now
only remains for US to declare ourselves
free and independently order, at no very
distant day, to become her rival. The re-
suit is easy enough to be seen. British
influence backed directly BY the Hudson
Bay Company, and indirectly; thro' them,
by the crown Of Great Britain, will cost
the United States millions, and in the end,
England, by an honorable treaty, will own
the Territory. So much for our national
imbecility.
But l, for one, hope for the best, and
cannot help thinking that if our Govern
ment has not already taken the necessary
steps to extend to us her Jurisdiction, that
she will soon do so, and maintain the same
with strong arm, ''asking nothing but that
which is right, and submitting to nothing
which is wrong" The English, through
the Hudson Bay Company, are determined
70 control this country, cost what it will
result in what it may. But the instant that
our country unflrls on the banks of the
Columbia, to an Oregonian breeze, that
glorious pledge of freedom, the stars and
the stripes. that instant will every heart
and strong hand rally around it, and in tri-
umph It "shall wave, Ger the land Of the
free. and the home of the brave.' The re-
marks which have made relative to the
Hudson Bay Company are strictly conf
dental; for, should they ever reach the
public through the medium Of the press,
0uc'' my signature, the next emigration
would bring it to this country, and / should
become an object Of persecution; for the
Company would pour out the walls Of its

In reply to the above, we have only to
say, that we have said nothing about Mr..
Johnson that we can take back. That he
cannot deny that the report Of which We
spoke was in circulation, nor can he deny
that strong suspicious are entertained and
expressed, that there was collision be-
tween him and the prisoner. We do not
intend, nor have we intended, TO do Mr..
Johnson injustice; in fact we offered for
lam, in the article Of which he complains,
the only apology the circumstances seemed
to present. II he is disposed to seek re-
dress, We would advise him to go to Rock
Island, the scene Of the exxtemeht against
him, and face those persons who are pub
licly expressing their belief in his culpable
neglect or COLLISION; and by proving the
Esth Of his own statement Of the circum-
stances, to put all suspicious to rest. We
have not, nor do we how express an opin-
ion as to his guilt or innocence. We mere
~ gave tne report as II was IN circulation
here, that strong suspicious were enter
tanned against him. We would remark
here. that tits a part Of orr basiness as a
public Journalist, to warn the public a.
gainst bad men; and though we would not
include Mr.. Thomas B. johnson among
the number, we considered it our privilege
and our duty, to notice the circumstances
under which he was placed. It will be
seen too that Mr.. johnson mistakes the
obvious meaning Of our article. He saws
that there are charges made, when il is
evident that no charge is made. We should
not have given the matter so much atten-
ton, but that We Ind received information
through several channels, that he was rail-
ing about it; and from the evident fact that
he has misconstrued our article, it was
reasonable to conclude that he would give
it coloring not warranted by the facts.
! In order that our readers may under
stand more fully the object Of the above
letter, we republish the article of which
he complains.
