The MORMON WAR-The news from Utah
which has reached us by the recent California
mail is OF character sufficiently threatening
The Mormons are preparing tor desperate aud
bloody resistance to the United States troops
The manufacture of arms and ammunition Is go
ING on With an activity and upon scale that
show fixed purpose in these misguided people
to hold out as long as possible against the tede
raj authority. The details Of the barharity, OBJ
scenity and iendishness which have thus tar re-
suited from the Incorporate appeals OF the Proph
ct, are so disgusting THAI we torbear to dwell up
on them. 1t would Indeed appear that Brigham
Young is ambitious of equalling. the atrocue,
of Nena Sahib, and that the SAINTS are tar more
bestial aud vindietive than the Sepols.
Meanwhile, we cannot but entertain very Sc
rious apprehensiuns for the safety ut the small
command which has been pushed forward To
maintain Il severe encounter with the frost upon
the Plains They are already surrounded 10y
snow drifts and beginning To experience the loss
of the tra;us which were Intercepted by Mormon
robbers some weeks ago.
