TRooPs FOR UTAH.-Orders have been re-
ceived at the New York station to hurry up
the recruiting business, and forward men as
fast as possible for the Utah service. A de-
tachment will probably be sent from New
York in tie course of the next fortnight; first
to Jefferson Barracks, there to be drilled and
got into fighting order, and will thence be NOV
ed to Leavenworth, where they will be added
to the various regiments which require filling
up. The regiments specially detached by
Lieutenant General Scott, with the approba-
ton of the War Department, to reinforce the
army of Utah are the first regiment of caval-
ry, sixth and seventh regiments of infantry,
the fourth regiments of artillery, and light
companies A and NJ of the second artillery.
The additional force will number over 2,70O
men, which, with the (about) 1000 already in
the Territory, will make up an army large
enough to bring the rebellious fanatics to
terms. General Scott's orders direct that
Forts Smith, Washita, Arbuckle, and Belknap
shall be abandoned for the present, and that
all the troops comprising the garrisoDs, except
ing the ordinance sergeants, shall at the earli-
est possible day proceed to Jefferson Barracks
The necessary preparations for the campaign
will be pushed forward with great vigor, and
the movement into Utah will probably be made
early in the spring.

What brigham II nOxVs about War.

The California papers by the last arrival
have reports of some of Brigham Young's
speeches. His idea of war is slightly curious
He said to a congregation of his people:
As the Lord God lives, we will destroy our
enemies by millions, if they send them here to
destroy u.s. and not man of US be hurt. That
is the method / intend to pursue. Do you
want to know what is going to be done with
the enemies now on our borders2 If they come
here | will tell you what will be done. AS
soon as they start to come into our settlement,
let sleepe depart from their eyes and slumber
from their eyelids, until they sleep in death,
for they have been warned and forewarued
that we will not tamely submit TO being de-
stroyed. Men shall be seereted here and there
and shall waste away our enemies, in the
name of IsresPs God.
Col. Anderson complains of our mode of
warfare. They have two more field bat
teries of artillery with them, and they want
us to form lire of battle in an open plain,
and give them fair chance to shoot Us. | did
not tell the Colonel whatI thought, but if he
had spark of sense he must be fool to think
that we will ever do any such thing. / am
going to observe the old maxim:
HE that 6ght and run away,
Lives TO fight another day."
Should our enemies venture upon violent
measures design 10 90 manage affairs that
none of our boys will be killed.

News from the Plains.

The Leavenworth City Ledger of the 9Th
inst. says that three young men. Henry Baker,
James Smith and Alexander Francis, arrived
there on Thursday afternoon, the 7th, direct
from Fort Bridger. They came the whole
distance, twelve hundred miles, on foot, and
accomplished their journey in forty-ive days.
They report that the day they left, six Nor
mons came into camp and reported that the
MOrmons were in state of civil war, Brig
ham Young and about one-half desiring to
march against the troops; the other half be-
ing in favor of the troops coming into Salt
Lake and establishing military government
there, and overthrowing the powers that be.
These gentlemen left Leavenworth last July,
with the train Of Henry Charles. On their
return they were caught in snow storm, and
came through with molestation. 1t was GER
tainly an undertaking at this season of the
wear.

DISCOVERY IN THE MANurAcrrRE OF LEATHER
Tho Ohio Farmer mentions an important discove-
ry i'll the manufacture Of leather by which TIE
process Of tanning is performed in as many days
as it formerly took months. Leather it is known
is formed by the union of yeiatin, of which tho
skin is chiefly composed, and dnnin n substance
found in the bark Of the oak, hemlock and birch,
nnd in few shrubs like the sumac &c. For tan
nng purposes immense breadths of forests have
already been destroyed, and the supply Of tannin
steadily decreases, while tho demand for leather
increases. Many mineral and vegetable substances
have been tried.as substitutes but without sue
cess. and tanners ars now obliged to import hem
lock from great distance and at constantly in
creasing cost. 1t has recently been discovered.
says the Farmer, that we have growing sponta-
neously and in great abundance all over the coun-
try. in every State and Territory in the Union.
and we believe all over Europe too. hitherto al
most worthless and very troublesome plant, but
which contains an abundance of tannin." Weare
not informed what the plant is but the discoverer,
Mr.. johnson. is said to have ascertained it's pro-
pcrties after many years of careful study and ex-
pertinent. By the new process he tans a calf skin
in two and half days. whicn formerly required
from six to twelve months. The invention has
been secured to the discoverer by etterspatent of
the United States, and measure are taking to se-
the same in Europe.
