LBAvENwORTH CRY, Jun

LEAVENWORTH CRY, June A.
I proceed to give you the authentic information,
from Camp Scott, which was brought to Fort LesV-
enworth By the last mail.
An officer of high rank in Col Johnston's army,
writes to an officer al LeavenWorth, under date Of
the 9Th of May, stating that the MUrmons would
aocede 10 no terms which the United States author
tiles could accept. The former had virtually pro-
posed an utimatum, and evinced every disposition
TO adhere 10 it under all circumstances and to the
last extremity The men who had accompanied the
wagons which Gilbert met going South toward the
White Mountsins had returned, or we're returning.
In the opinion Of the officer, who writes and whose
position gives him every opportunity for obtaining
correct knowledge Of IL iacs from which the opinion
is derived, collision vas imminent.
Capt. Stewart, of Col. HOffman's escort, writes
from a point nearly one hundred miles beyond Fort
Laramie, on the 18th of May Hoffmans train had,
in fourteen days. from the 1st to the 18th Of May
advanced not more than 40 miles. They had en-
couutered severe and protFaoted snow storm, which
swelled the stream and rendered the country almost
inn ossible Large numbers of the animals persisted
They had no hopes Of being able to join Col John
ston before the 10th or 18th of June.
An officer about Col JOhnstOn's headquarters, who
writes on the 9th Of May, says that they were to
have struck their tentz on the 80tb, and march on
Salt Lake. The same authority ststes that they had
sssmal raLions" to last them until about the lst Of
July The meat ration had almost disappeared, but
herd of two orthree hundred fst oxen was expected
10 day or Two.
1t would appear that this expectation was not
fulfilled for Gov Powell, at later date, writing to
CAPTAIN McCoWn, commander Of Fort Kearny, says
that Johnston's men would be feeding on mule Goat
on tho 2Oh of May. Powell had not reached NE
Camp when he wrote thus, but he had learned prob
ABLY of the non-srrival Of the oxen.
This verbal message THAT Gov Cumming had been
driven out ofSat Lake City ssnt through the medium
of the carrier by Capt. MoCoWn, to Col Monroe and
Gen. Harvey, is think, entitled to eredibiity, fer
il socords with the several letters Of the 9Th aud 7h
of may from the Camp, although none Of them ex-
pFsssly VsEihss it,

FROM WASHINGTON.

WARRINGTON June s.-The Secretary Of the In
terror has asked Congress for an appropriation Of
$780, O0Oto ensbls him 70 take measures TO preserve
pesee in the northern superintency, which Is now
threatened with invasion by large bodies Of hostile
Ysuotona!se Sioux lis within the knowledge Of
the Dpsment thst great dissatisfaction has existed
for years among turbulent bands Of Sioux or DacO-
tab Indians Whoserange is along the Missouri river
aud who are now about manifesting an Inauguration
of hostilities on q scale Of alarming magnitude.
The regular troops have been Withdrawn from the
frontier settlements; they had been entirely unpro
testel and great alarm exists among the settlers,
Eho have appealed to the Dsparment for protection
The Secretary therefore earnestly sppesls TO Con
gresS 70 act promptly in this emergency.
The Secretary transmits letter from agent
Vaughan 10 which it is 81 ted that tbs Sioux ia
sbeirersnt and refractory condition. particularly
the Meneeogrees and Unchsfa bands. During the
mast year they have been robbing unfortunately
every white man passing through their country,
and in many cases threatening their lives. The
vitbdraysl Of the troops from Fort Pierre has
caused the Indians TO believe that the government is
afraid Of them and from their conduct and threats
Vaughan is satisfied that no agents life is safe in
distributing the annuity without suitable force to
protect him. The Secretary asks 100000 to re-
deem the promise made by General Harvey 10 nine
hands Of the Sioux in 1856. These bands are among
the widest and most dangerous within our limits.
Good faith and sound policy demand the fulhllment
Of these slipulstiors and it is said, that unless
measures are promptly taken, serious measures will
be likely to result
The President to-day communicated to the Senate
the correspondence between De 0sms, the Peruvisn
Minister and Secretary Glass; relative TO the foTolble
and violent seizure Of American vessels, the Geor-
gAna and Lizzie Thompson, while engaged In taking
in gusuo, under the charge Of being engaged
in contrabsnd trade, and the imprisonment Of the
persons on board. Our Government bias claimed
full satisfaction for both this sad the bosTdnE and
detention Of the DOreos 0. Yeston By Peruvian
steamer. De Osms enters into long argument IN
defence Of Peru, and expresses the hope that moth
ing will occur to interrupt the friendly relations e1
isting between the two countries. Secretary CAss,
in reply reminds De 0sms that the case presents
one of very grave confederation and ssys The treat
ment Of these vessels resembles pirSteRl entsr-
prise rAthersthan exercise Of legitimate power
He enoOses the opinion of Attorney GehoI oil Black
who maintains that the whole proceeding Of the
| Psruvan Government was contrary TO the Law Of
natons aud repugnGnt to the principles OF national
Justice; aud also transmits q copy OF his recent
letter 70 Lord Napier underscorlng the strongest
sentences concerning the position Of the United
States relative to search and seizures Of American
vessels b. those Of foreign powers.

The simple truth is that the leaders Of the Dem
Ocratio party have deg nerated into an organized
band Of plaoe-hunters and treasury plundssers.-
PGFi0t.
Is not our neighbor little afraid Of giving Of
fence to prominent members Of his own party in
speaking Of treasury plundere-s?" The recent
developments in this city furnish a very severe
commentary upon the honesty OF Know Nothing
Office holders and may serve to teach the people
how far that party oVn be trusted with the man
agsmeat Of the public money. The most serious
charge which has been made against any "leadsr
of the DemOorEio parity" is, hat a Democratic
Governor was so foolish ss 10 believe that a Know
Nothing holder could be honest. The burden
Of the complaint agains5 Gov. JOHNSON is thst Re
deposited bond with tLe Secretary Of State which
that oGioer had executed. The Know Nothing pa
pees think it extremely strange he should imagine
for 4 moment, that a maa whom their party had
elected to office could be trusted With public money
or public documents. We suppose ne will be held
responsible for MOsEYs rsscslity, and perhaps for
the villaiRios Of ths whole Know Nothing party.
