,osoriety throughout the world on account OF
-, romantic disposition and singular conduct,
,uiyed Yesterday morning upon the Humboldt
..,omnanied by her agent, Mr.. Edward Willis,
.d.eyeral servants. She left Paris to meet the
u,mboldt, and travelled by way of Calais and
no,sr to London, where she remained two days
,.,,teIeaye of her friends. She states that many
b,d things had been said of her by the American
,,ess vet she is not the woman she has been re-
presented to be if she were, her admirers she
t.reves would be still more numerous. She
t,s been very lively during the whole passage,
ND she does not appear to be very favorable to
Yossutb whom she thinks is an austere and dis
tant man.
Lola is not a masculine woman, but rather
slim in her structure, she has face OF great
beauty, and pair of black Spanish eyes, which
fash fire when she is speaking, and make her,
with the sparkling wit of her conversation,
meat iaysrite in company. She has black hair,
which curls in ringlets by the sides of the face,
and her nose is of a pure Grecian cast, while
her cheek bones are high, and give Moorish
appearance to her face.
She expresses herself fearful that she will not
be properly considered in New-York, but hopes
that discriminating public will Judge of her
after having seen her, and not before

Letter from Mr.. Bernhisel.
UNITED STATES HOTEL,
WASHINGTON, Monday, Dec. ], 1851.

WARRINGTON, MONDAY, Dec. j, lcOl
To ne Editor OF The InftlligenceT.
Upon my arrival in this city am met by
statements in circulation injurious to the character
ofmy constituents, and OF Gov. Young, OF Utah Ter
niory and after a general inquiry, which nave
taken the Liberty TO extend to the President, ind
them without other authority than letter which ap-
peaxed in your columns, stated TO be from =" A Ju-
dical Officer and dated Great Salt Lake City, Sept
20, 1851
The statements of this letter are essentially ncor
rect Its accusations are mainly based upon asper
Mons alleged TO have been cast upon the memory Of
the late President Taylor by the Governor, on the
occasion Of the celebration OF the anniversary OF the
Ath of July. At that celebration your (supposedl
letteT-wfiter was not present-n0t having arrived
Till some time after the organization of the Terri
tory. But was present, and am able to inform you,
upon my own responsibility, that The Governors re-
marks upon that occasion included no structures
whatever upon General Taylor's character or public
eevices nor I'm fact, any alusion TO him at all that
lean remember. The celebration was made the OPP
poYtunity, as il always has been by the patrloNc
people Of Great Salt Lake City, for repeatedly re-
newed expressions Of their enthusiastic attachment
TO their beloved country. -
When left Utah. nineteen days after the date oi
the letter TO which YOU gave publication, peace ana
quiet prevailed everywhere, and unbroken harmony
and good feeling between the officers oil the Govern
ment and the people o. ne ,trr'sopy ro}otans
which they cultivate toward each other had indeed
as vet, left the courts without an entry ior their
dockets but Governor Young had cheerfuliy acce-
ded to the request OF the JUDGES anu oeoIe.aIt
TO aix his name TO petition to Congress, OF which
am the bearer. praying for an augmentation OF the
salaries OF the Territorial officers on account OF the
expense of living under our California prices
Under these circumstances, and IN view OF the
fact that no communications have been received
nom Salt Lake since these charges were made, or
can be expected for some time 70 come, ask that
you will be good enough TO request a suspension OF
public opinion upon the charges TO which you have
given circulation, until further and more authentic
Intelligence is received nom Utah Territory.
have the honor TO be your obedcnt servant,
JOHN NJ. BERNmsEL, Delegate from Utah.

The Mormops.

Having published several days ago the
substance of Judge Brocchus statement in reference
to the Mormon difficulties, which agrees in the main
with the statement in The 81. Joseph Gazette, en-.
oorsed and adopted by the retiring Chief Justice
and Secretary of state, we content ourselves with
taking from that document the following startling
piece OF Tews:
The plurality wife system is in fun vogue here.
Governor Young is said to have as many as 30 wives
Ne drove along the streets. few days since, with
Of them in a long cauiage-l4 OF them having
each, infant at her bosom. II is said that Heber
{. kimball, Of the Trune Council, and the Sec
ono person in the 'rin,rs has almost am equal mum
sers. Each man Can have as many wives as he can
maintain, that Is, after the women have been pick.
% and culled by the head men. The Judges and
secretary of State have had the honor OF beng m
fcduced by His Excellency, the Governor, t. sew
WN OF his wives and also by Heber {. himosu 10
