INTERESTING NEWS FROM THE UTAH EN-
petition.

PEDITION.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-Dspatches have been
ceived by the War Department from Col. Johnson,
dated November 30th, confirming the previous
ports of the excessive suffering and great loss of
draught animals by snow storms cold and starva-
ton sufficient number of oXen although poor,
had been saved to supply part ration for six
days In the week, and there was bacon on hand for
one day per week for seven months, together with
a supply of -four and small rations.
The storm had dealt roughly with Col. Cooks
command. He had lost hlaf his horses, besides a
number of mules. Further advances toward Salt
Lake city cannot be made without a new supply
of such animals to procure which Capt. Marcy had
been dispatched to New Mexico to secure a supply
for use in early spring, when the army, with
volunteer force. 1000 strong, will resume march
rs soon as supplied with horses and mules and
gras on the montans sufficient for their support.
Two volunteer companies have mustered into
the service for nine months, and It is expected
that two more will join in few days
The troops have borne the danger and priva-
tons o f the march with patience and cheerful
ness. They are in fine health, although some are
suffering from frost bite.
Another letter from an officer of tho army says
the Mormons are afraid of mounted men. They
are great towards, like all assassins and robbers,
and he fears their leaders and those who have
no claim in the Valley will run away, requiring
their deluded followers to destroy their property
lest it may benefit the army.
