The ~AIornll0,.s.

The ship Columbia arrived at NewYo rk on
the lst instant, from Liverpool, with about
300 passengers, including 22l Mormons, under
the conduct Of Elder John Williams The
Evening Post, Of the 3D. says;
Elder Williams is a short-legged, small-sizcd
man, full Of energy, and evincing considerable
intelligence: He told our reporter this morn
ing that these were nearly all hisown converts,
and came mostly from Bristol, England. There
were twenty-three from Wales, a few from
Scotland, and some from London, Yorkshire,
Land other parts sof England. They were
thoroughly organized on s%hipboard, being 60
verned by Elder Williams, as president, as
sisted by a council, the members Of which.
were presidents Of districts. They had a very
rongh passage. On one occasion the bulwarks
Of the ship were washed away, and a couple OF
saints narrowly escaped being drowned but
the Lord merciinliy spared the /. chosen people,"
and not q death occurI on board.
They are all in good health and look re-
markably tidy. The number Of men is about
equal to that OF the women, but there is a
multitude of children Of all ages. The men
are not u~suallysstrong looking, but the women
aretwell made, anas". Ss.of them quite hand
some. $500 Il
This morning The y ..pan, ted by
Parsons John Taylor, George til and
Farley p Pratt, leading Morn present
lying in this city. After shaking hands all
around, and kissing some Of the little folks,
the visitors gathered the saints about them,
when Parson Taylor, q tall, gray-haired man,
made a speech, in which he congratulated
them on having escaped the perils Of the deep,
and gave them some counsel as to their future
conduct. He was sorry they had not arrived
in time to participate III the jubilee at his
house last evening. Some Of them, he said,
would go to st. Louis, some to Cincinnati,
and some would remain in this city. In the
spring they would be reunited, and all start on
their pilgrimage to the Promised Land. He
wanted they should gather around the 50 Presi-
dents Of Districts" and give in an account OF
their means, where they had friends, and where
they wanted to go, etc. If any were too poor
to aid themselves, they would be quartered for
the time in tho houses Of their brethren here,
and must find employment as soon as possible.
1T was desirable that all should make their
arrangements as soon as they could, and then
he would tell them what to do, and get them
away. S
The men .rcycrcntly uncovered their heads
during the address, and the two other parsons
fat and sleek, sat and smiled approval. The
whole group pressed enthusiastically around
their leaders, evidently regarding them as little
short Of angels. ss5

surer Of New Orleans, was tried last week, in
the Fourth District Court, on the charge of
embezzling large amounts of money while in

some six months ago, caused a tremendous
excitement in the city.

pieces Of artillery. Spencer hailed from her

session Of all the steamers, and the river, with
1000 men that the passengers would be all
taken through to Greytown in safety, provided
no resistance was made. The captain and
owners, one of whom was on board, deeming
that they had no right to leopard the lives of
the passengers, surrendered.
The Ogden, with Spencer and his soldiers,
then came alongside and took off the people
and baggage. Spencer gave orders that, in
case the least resistance y ,s attempted, the
soldiers should blow. up vessel and jump
overheard, and for this purpose had . slow
match attached to 3 quantity Of powder.
Passengers arrived safely at the harbor Of
San Juan del Norte. While in the middle Of
the harbor, q boat from a British mnn-ofwaf
came alongside and gave notice that no yio-
lence would be allowed in the harbor, and that
in case any outbreak occurred on the steamer,
she would be fired into. This was to prevent
her being retAken by Walkers men, several Of
whom were on board.
The agent Of Chas. Morgan & Sons was
on board, and had been arrested by SpeneIr,
who swore lie would send him to .San jose

alongside, for protection and permission to go

ExEcUrIoN.-One Of those brutal exhibi-
tions, relics Of barbarism, came off in New
Orleans last week. James Costlow, . native
Of New Brunswick, aged about p years, for
the murder OF policeman John Dunn, and
Patrick Kennedy, . native Of ireland, aged
about Is years, for the murder Of JAS. Cruise,
had been condemned to expiate their nlisdeeds
on the scaffold on Friday last. When the hour
arrived, however, it was discovered that Cost
low had anticipated the sentence'of the law,
and had committed suicide but Kennedy still
remained as : subject for the hangman to
to operate upon, and 80 the press and the pub
lie were not entirely swindled out Of their pre-
rogative. The latter was accordingly hanged,
but hanged privately, to the no small disgust Of
the multitude outside the prison walls, who had
assembled to see the Show And thus one
murder is Cancelled by another, aud the law is
Ill right again. If capital punishment would
prevent the commission of capital crime, there
might be something in it but as all history
has shown that this is not the case, we do
think that the sooner our statute books get
rid Of this cold-blooded strangling feature, the
sooner may our people claim kindred with
humanity, aud rejoice in the name Of Christians

WORMS! WORMS! WoRNs!-A great many

Instructions for the Ogden to come down,

hundred men on the Virgin and steamed for
Fort San Carlos, at the head of the river,
where there was q garrison Of about thirty
men. He landed his men half a mile below
the fort and out Of sight, and then made the
captain steam up and exchange the usual
signals.
Capt. Kruger, who commanded Fort San
Carlos, came on board with five men, when he
was invited on deck and told that il he made any
signal whatever to his men on shore, he would
be shot. He was compelled to sign an order
to his men to surrender, which they wonldhave
been obliged to do. as they were completely
surrounded by the three hundred men who had
been landed below. Thus, the river, with all
the steamers, was taken, except the steamer
San Carlos, which was at Virgin Bay, waiting
to bring the California passengers down, and
entirely ignorant of what had transpired.
