the climate at Chicago must be milder

MORMON DIFFICULTIES.
A WashingtOn letter writer says

A Washington letter writer says;
The appointments for Utah are at last completed
1t is, however reported here very confidently that
Col Jack c. Hays, the celebrated Texas Ranger and
Indian fighter, will not accept the Surveyor Gen.
eralship of the Territory. The appointment of D.
F. Eckles of Indiana, Chief Justice of the United
States Court for Utah, is announced this evening"
Gov. Cumming is to return here or his instructions
will be forwarded to him at st. Louis in few DAYS
when everything will be prepared for inauguratiDg
the new administration in Utah. as the military ar
rangements have already been made, with view to
actual service. There is no doubt but that the Ad-
minisration is fully resolved to reduce the Mormons
to obedience, if force should become necessary;
however the difficulties in this quarter can probably
only receive final settlement in some such policy
as recommended by Judge Douglas in his late speech
al Sprinfed-that is, the repeal of the Territorial
act and the subsection of the inhabitants Of Utah to
the laws which regulate the unorganized territory
of the government, or possibly annexation to some
one or other of the nearest States already proyi
ded for in the act under which this Territory was
first organized. The fact is, that these Mormon
difficulties have already been temporized with so
long, and the treason of these people encouraged by
the failure of punishment, that moderate measures
now can no longer be entertained and il is useless
to invoke the power of the courts or even to expect
from the arm of the military, anything more than
temporary redress.

Every few even of Mr.. Marcy's most intimate

proved fatal to him. Yet for thirty years he had
suffered occasionally from what he called stitch in
his side and during the last two years of his official
life he was severa times suddenly taken i'll in his
office with an affection which appeared TO alarm
him considerably during the few minutes while it
lasted. At such periods he would turn pale and
complain of nausea but as soon as they were over
he would forget all about them and become out.
wardly as cheerful as ever. He however, was evil
IDENTIFY imposed by the recurrence of these attacks
with the fragility of his hold life, and on the
Sunday before his death, when apparently enjoying
perfect health and ndulgingin pleasant anticipatons
of his European tour, he observed to a friend who
spoke to him of his Presidential prospects in 1860
+" Do not speak of that subject shall not live to
see the election Of another President" These fore
bodings his remembered TO have uttered once before
during the last few months OF his Secrearyship but
the gentleman who heard them, not knowing the
grounds Of Mr.. Marcy impessiOn still augured
pleasant continuance Of his days

least year before the end of his term in the State
Department even If President Pierce were re-elect-
ed, to retire from public life"
