Brigham Young and Col. SteptOe.

Brigham Young is liable to become dan
gerous enemy to the future peace of the Unit
ed States. Yet his cunning seems equal to
his audaeity and prohigacy, and the manner
which he has begun to undermine the influence
Of Col. Steptoe, in order to continue to WELD
the power Of which he is legally dispossessed,
is scarcely such as to bring him within the
reach OF Justice. Col. Steptoe has not yet ac-
cepted the office of Governor of Utah, and no
pretext yet exists for calumny and attack
against himself, personally, therefore Brigham
Young processes for the new appointee. indi-
vidually, conditional esteem and attachment.
The army of Col. Steptoe, however, by which
alone he could be sustained in Office among the
Mohammedans Of Utah, is the force hitherto
under his command as an officer in the United
States army, and the efforts of Young are
therefore directed to rendering the soldiers and
junior officers, at Salt Lake City, as odious as
possible In the eyes of his fellow citizens. He
says of them, Eve have some OF the most cor
rupt, damnable, mean curses here that ever
disgraced the earth y and his iDcendiary Ian
guage is apparently intended to arouse armed
hostility against uen, If necessary to accom-.
plish his ends. This is indicated by his own
express declaration. He says -" For man
to come here snd infringe upon my individual
rights and privileges, and upon those of. my
brethren, will never meet with my sanction,
and I will scourge such q one until he leaves.
am after him. aNlIoa .7?rs9 g ra.sa
According to some accounts, considerable
disaAection exists among the eNnnnons them
selves, on account of Young's arrogance and
tyranny but it is more probable that he ex-
erts an influence as High, Priest, which is az
yet unshAken, and that his miserably deluded
followers are prepared to follow to any lengths
his desperate suggestions We trust that our
Governments at " ashington is fully prepared
for all emergencies that may arise at Salt Laie
City, and that the authority bestowed upon
Governor Steptoe win be backed by sufficient
force y msintain #, at every Hazard g. Nev-

The Duties OF a Mayor.

DEAR S1R:-l am IN receipt Of your flvOr OF
the Both ult. 1t asks my views of the duty of
amayor-o of city WIN reference fUthe enforce:
ment Of laws regulating or prohibiting the sale
of Intoxicating drinks, and stating that " the
committee Of the State Temperance Society of
Massachusetts arcE exceedingly ,xious to To
coiye an answer from you.p1 L } Z i
In reply / have the honor to that the
duty of mayor. with reference 10 the execu-
tiop Of A6v law depends upon the, lsw itself-
There are laws, the enforcement Of which rests
entirely with other ofdhctienaries, and with
which municipal officers have nothing to do !;
therefore, Of the duties of mayors in the execu-
ton of your prohibitory law in the cities of
Massachusetts, cannot speak, never having
read that law,and without knowledge as to the
magsterial prerogatives of their Office in your
State.
BY singular oversight, the Legislature of
New York has passed a prohibitory (which
imposes no duty upon the Mayor Of this city
whatever. That officer is not only not named
in the act, but its execution depends entirely
upon other officers who are designated therein.
Had our Legislature passed law for the
suppression Of intemperance, and it became my
duty as Mayor of this city to enforce its pro-
visions, the effort would have been made by
me- at all hazards, and with determined use
of the whole power OF my Office. An exeeu-
tive officer has nothing to do but to administer
the laws as fat as their enforcement devolves
upon him, taking care, however, to receive the
advice of the law officers of his Office, as to his
powers and duties, and especially is legal adj
vice necessary with reference to the execution
Of laws like the Maine law, which directs the
seizure and destruction of property, other
wise serious personal liability would be assum
ed, sufficient to ruin the wealthiest man in the
community. Were l to attempt the execution
of our prohibitory law, and seize and destroy
liquors, after having received the official assn.
RANGES of the legal advisers Of my Office, that
such seizure and interference wOul,. be illegal
l would subject myself to personal liability, in
asmuch as the execution of the law did not de
vOlve upon my Office at all, and should he as
Stunning responsibility not justified by any
public consideration whatever.
For my views as to the duties of executive
off ers generally. and which would govern my
conduct if Mayor of one of your cities for the
enforcement Of any law-and all laws under
the qualifications alluded to herein--I refer you
to communication made by me to the people
Of this city, on the 10th ult., a copy of which
is enclosed. am very truly yours,
