Lake oupefiOr, WHO passed the WnOIe OF that
fearful night with the hostile chiefs in unremt-
ted efforts to dssuade them from their blood
thirsty resolution From an exceedingly inter-
esting daily journal of that remarkable canoe
expedition along the hunting grounds of nntame-
able savages, kept by Mr. Trowbrdge, we copy
| an entry made on the morning after the expect
ed attack. In speaking of the friendly inter-
terence of Mrs. johnson the diary says:
'This influence and the courage that never
knew fear on the part of our chief has saved
probably hundreds of lives, and given us peacea-
BILE entrance to a country whose territory skirts
an inland sea co-eXtensive with the Baltic, and
which must before long be added by cession to
the millions upon millions of acres already COM
posing Uncle Sans farm"
We should have before mentioned that on
the following afternoon council was held. the
Gmcmde homoradT made, and the treaty signed.
BRIGHAM You've ExcrTED.-At latest ac-
counts Brigham Young was awfully excited
He had been making a speech, and told in very
pathetic terms how, according to his nstruc=
tions, the principal tMormons opened their
houses to the United States troops who were
quartereti among them last wintcr-and how
these troops made love by wholesale to the
Mormon women-and how deplorab ble success
full they were. Brigham Young says:
Past experience has taught the brethren that
in future it will probably be the best policy to
let soldicry quarter by themselves, and l am
perfectly willing
If persons come here and behave like gentle
men they shall enjoy their rights, and We will
enjoy ours or fight to the death. AZ to again
suffering the wickedness and misrnle of foul
spirits that come into oun midst, and are trea-
ted by lis as gentlemen, l will not.
l do not know what l shall say next winter
if such men make their appearance here as
were some last winter. ] know what l think
| shall say if they play the same game again.
Let the women be ever so bad so help nle God,
we will slay them
What especially maddened Brigham the
iaet that quite number of the Mormon girls
concluded to follow the bold soldier boys on
their march to California, prcferring the land
of gold and the soldiers company to the harems
OF the Salt Lake Palestine. Brigham says:
The men who coaxcd them (the .rirls) away
did not intend to take them to California. If
any offer to do the same thing again i'll these
mountains, Judgment shall be laid to the line
and righteousness to the plummct; - aud they
shall say that Brigham does not lie.
In the course of speech on the l 18th of July,
Brigham throws down the gauntlet to the Gen
tiles in the following style
We want none of their money and if they
are not disposed to send it here, care nothing
about their moneys coming, and this proves to
me and should to yon, that do not about
a mans getting one dime appropriated to this
Territory. But we will send Delegate who
will do no hurt and if it not that the hue
and cry of treason against the General Gov
ernment' would be made. we would not send a
Delegate at all or were it not hat they would
say. Now You have proof sufficient that the
Normons mean to secede from the Union, as
they have sent no Delegate;' and thus hatch
NJ pretext for commencing fresh hostiltics
against u.s.
Though may not be Governor here, my
power will not he diminished. No man they
can send here will have much influence with
this community, unless he is the of their
choice. Let them send who they will, and it
does not diminish my influence particle
As said, the first time l spoke this stand,
my governorsl,ip, and every other ship under
my control, aided and derive direct advan-
tages from my position in the priesthood

RoMsNcE IN R>AL LIFE-A STRANGE SCENE
We were witness yesterday morning to u scene
not very common in this part of the world.
whole family consisting of seven persons,
father, mother, and five little ones, rather poor
ly dressed, stopped at the pump corner of Main
and Third, to get drink. They had come
afoot all the way from North Carolina, some
seven hundred miles, and were Oh their way to

not. Some of our charitable citizens
gathered around, and in few moments collec-
ted and gave them $40 in money and some
shoes. Who shall say what hardships they |
have passed through their long journey?
Tho shall tell the weariness of those little feet |
when night came on-how heavy their bright i
eyes grew-or how soundIy they slept till early |
dawn? The mother carried on her head bun

der heavy bundle on his head, doubtless chan
ged with one of his companions; little toddlng
girl of three or four years, with her red bare
feet, moved glibly along, as brave as the
bravest. Louisville is doubtless the first great
city they ever saw, and the ten thousand OBJ

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
A Texan GopDEss D1ASA.-Within 4 few
niles of the city of Austin, there lives lady
whose accomplishments for the ball drawing
room. If equaled, are not surpassed by any i'll
the State. This lady has, in the last eight
months, killed three bears, two of enormous
size, several deer, and considerable small game /
She has, moreover, in her possession, beaut
ful and powerful stallion of the Mustang breed
which she caught with the 'lasso" on the prai-
ries and "broke it' herself. She will follow |
the mountain ''muIe eared0 rabbits over
places which have caused the heart of many an
old hunter to quail. She has frequently been /
known, when following wounded deer, to
