Capt. Stansbury's Corps Typographical Engi-
neers had closed his survey Of the country Of the
Great Salt Lake. The News contains letter
from Captain Stansbury, intended to contradict
reports which have reached the States, that the
object of his expedition had been forcibly opposed
by the inhabitants of the valley. He says nothing
can be farther from the truth. He was received
by the President and public authorities with the
greatest courtesy, and he will remember with graf
itude the many tokens of kindness received from
the citizens of he place. Every facility has been
studously afforded for the prosecution of our
duties; instruments of science frankly and gratuit
ousy loaned, and the able and faithful assistance
obtained, from their commencement here, Of gem
| tleman, well known fearless advocate OF your
| doctrines, and prominent and influential member
Of your community. | have deemed il not impro-
per to say thus mueh to counteract an erroneous
| impression against people already burthened wiki
too much undeserved Feproach."

general rupture; and may be that North
western frontier will be the theatre of many
bloody battle between the different tribes
