Col. Hoffman and command were snow

The most advanced trains of Russell, Major
and Waddles were met near the South Platte.
The trains were gathering along finely until

Salt Lake City, May 9Th, which represents
everything as being quiet in the Valley. Gov.
Cummings was in the city at that date. The
people had given up all idea of fighting, and

Later From Utah.
WASHINGTON, June IL.
Letters from Fort Bridger, state that the
army had sufficient provisions to last until
the middle of May or 1st of June, before
which time additional supplies would be re-
ceived.
The Senate Committee of Conference was
appointed on the four appropriation bills to
amendments of which the House had disa-
greed.
| The Indiana election case were considered.
| Official information has been received from
| Gov. Cummings of his arrival at Salt Lake
city and favorable reception there. Brigham
Young formally delivered to him all authori-
ty, and counselled the people to obedience.
| There was not the slightest demonstration of
hostility. Brigham and the prominent
Mormons were to have left Salt Lake on
| Tuesday last. The various Mormon settle
ments were broken up, and the inhabitants
were moving South for or in the direction of
Sonora. The scene is represented to have
been most distressing and mournful, as the
mer, women and children, poorly clad, and
lily provided for, uncomplainingly took their
departure from the Territory.
A message was read in the House to day
from the President, enclosinga copy of dis
patch from Gov. Cummings, dated May Cd,
and received at the State Department yester
day. From this, the President says, there is
reason to believe that our difficulties with
| Utah have terminated, and that the laws are
restored. He congratulates Congress on the
auspicious event, expressed his opinion that
there will be no occasion to make the appro-
priation for the three Regiments of Volun-
teers recently authorized for quelling the dis
turbances in Utah, and for the protection of
tie Emigrant trains supplies, and says that
Texas can be defended by the regular troops
now within her limits.
The President is more gratified, because
the events in Utah will afford some relief to
the Treasury, and not require a loan and ad-
ditional taxation of the people.
The dispatch states that some of the Nor
mons are yet in arms and speaks of the mis-
chief they are capable of rendering as guer-
illas. The way for the emigrants for the Pa
cifc, was open. Gov. Cummings would leave
for the South on Sd of May. lie says that
he will restrain all the proceedings of the
military for the present, until be shall receive
additional news from the President.
A sudden outbreak between Senators
Gwin and Wilson this evening, caused pro-
found astonishment. Mr.. Wilson was speak
ing of the way Government was plundered in
California. Mr.. Gwin intilnatcd that Mr.
Wilson talked like demagogue. Mr.. Will
son replied that he would rather be dema-
gogue than thief, meaning to apply the term
thief to the plunderers of the Government
in California. Mr.. Gwin asked for an eXplana
ton. Mr.. Wilson said he had none to give,
upon which Mr.. Gwin said he was calum-
niator, liar and coward. There the colloquy
