n Mormon Place of Refuge.

1t is stated the Mormons, among their other prepare
tons, have not forgotten to look out Canaan Of
fuge, in the United States should disagree too
verey with their pariarcha institutions. The" Saints
have it appears an excellent open road from their south
western valleys to settlement of their on the con-
fines of Lower California This colony consists of be
tween and two thousand picked setters-brave pr
dent, Industrious and well instructed not to give offence
to their christian neighbOrs. The colony keeps up
steady communication with Salt Lake. six hundred miles
distant and it is scarcely to be doubted that they have
planted other stations in the pleasant and fertile valleys
scattered along this route The inference is obvious
from the systematic arrangement, which opens the way
to Sonora and Lower California, that the Mormons have
contemplated the possibility of retreat beyond the
United States jurisdiction. They affiliate with the In,
dams, strong enough to hold both Sonora and Lower
California against Mexico, and nothing but large vol
unecr force and the establishment of Gordon Of military
settlements can reduce the Mormons to submission.

DECLINE RELIGION IN New ENGLAND.-It ap-
pears from the published satisfies of the New England
Congregational Churches that the number of church
members is of late years annually decreasing Thus in
Connecticut the whole number of church members which
in l849 forty two thousand aud seventy had sunk
in 1857 to thirty-seven thousand nine hundred and
twentynne while the baptisms Of children reported in
these eight years average less than three to each church
in the State. Similar results are noticed in the other
New England churches The fact may partially be &C
counted for by the removal of the young to the
West; but in judgment it is owing in a far greater
degree to the pursued and the spirit manifested
by these churches The pulpit have been degraded to
political rostrums, and the ministers have been busy in
pronouncng anathemas upon party and its adherants
instead of preaching the gospel of love and exempns
the charity that suereth long, and thinketh no evil
When the churches experience religion may expect
that their number will increase and that plenty will he
something more than name-Bufat0 Courier.

ST. Louis, Dec 1.-THE special session of the Kan
sas Legislature was organized on the 8th Secretary
Stanton as acting Governor says in his message In
consequence of recent events find myself compelled by
of duty to call You together that you may adopt
by promp legislation to avert caamties winch
now threaten the public peace" He recommends the
passage of act directing that the election be held u-
der different officers the day and at the same
place provided for by the proclamation of the President
of the constitutional convention authorizing the people
to vote for the constitution in either form presented by
the convention and also against the constitution in
both FORMS He also recommends the passage of law
making fraudulent returns of the votes felony, with
suitable punishment.
There is intense excitement in the Territory and it is
probable that the parties opposed to the Lecompton
convention will not permit the election to be held.
Gen. Lane with 300 men, had encamped neal lie
compton, and making threats to drive the Calhoun
members of the convention out of the Territory but nc

Club, held at noon yesterday, at 35l Broadway P"Pl
read giving an account of the success which ma
thus far attended the sinking of Artesan Wells IN the
great African Desert of Sahara The first well was

Tamerma, by detachment of the Foreign Legion
conducted by Engineer w. Jus. Water was obta n
in June at the rate of 600 hogsheads per hour inc
with great soletuny, they consecrated it by the nam
of " The Well of Peace" Another bore in IamaqIH'
gave 100 quarts per minute The temperature OF wv
water in both was about IS deg Fahrenheit. ln

F1RE--On Thursday last, about two o'clock fire
broke out i'll the Union Hotel occupied by Maj. Thorn
Howerton, which destroyed the entire building. The
fire commenced in one of the upper front rooms, and
not discovered until it burnt out of the roof and into the
piazza in such force to defy all attempts to subdue it.
The furniture removed from all the rooms the
first floor, and saved; but very little of that in the
chambers. By great exertions the fire prevented
from extending beyond the building in which it orgina-
ted through for little while the corner above and the
hotel kitchen, and smoke house in imminent danger
The hotel belonged to Long, Webb Co., and was nsur-
cd for $4,000 portion of the furniture belonging to
