Royal Mail Steamship Persia, Capt. Judkins,
on Cape Race, yesterday, and arrived here
this forenoon. The Persia left Liverpool
June II.
The Atlantic Telegraph feet took its final
! departure under sail, from Plymouth, on
thursday, the 10th inst. The weather is un-
derstood to have been favorable for the bust
ness of submerging the cable.
The fleet expected to meet mid-ocean on
the goth inst. and we shall probably hear of
the arrival of the Niagara at Trinity Bay on
or about the Goth inst.
The Liverpool Cotton Market was reported
dull Breadstuffs were without material
change.
The London Money Market was easy, and
consols closed at 50 rs 96, for accounts.
The MoRMoNs. Kane, to whom is
assigned the chief credit for the paciicauon
OF the Mormons, has arrived at Philadelphia.
1he reports show that Gov. Cumming has
managed with great prudence, frmness, and
sagaclty, and also show that had the chief
conduct OF affairs been in the hands of a SOL
der instead of civilian, aconuest would have
been inevitable. The st. Louis Republican
furnishes the following information that was

Salt Lake city in company with Col. Kane
" Gov. Cummings adventure had been the
general theme of conversation in the Valley
when Mr.. w. left. Evadng a predatory
band OF the Banacks and Sho-sho nees, by
taking off the road to the north, he succeeded
also IN keeping out of the way of the Nor
mon Vldettes and stragglers until close upon
one OF their principal outposts. The first
trapper discovered him by spring near Bear
River, and made off, but soon returned fol-
lowed by twenty-eight others, who. closing
fourteen before and fourteen behind, conduct
ed the Governor to one of their stations,
where were about one hundred other horse,
and Mormon brigadier. The brigadier re-
celved Gov. g. with great politeness, and in
formed him that no opposition would be of.
tered by his command to the Governors pro-
ceeding to Salt Lake City, but he would do
we'll to be provided with an escort.
Governor Cumming was escorted by one
party and another all the way to the Valley;
and with their assistance when the road was
bad or the snow troublesome he arrived in
good health, and expressed himself very lit
tie tatigued. The story in Salt Lake was
that some of the Governors escort had en-
deavored to dissuade him from proceeding by
Echo Canon, where a large body of troops
was stationed, about whose sentiments to.
wards the Governor there was reason to
doubt. Governor Cumming settled the mat
ter by saying that he wished to meet them for
that very reason. This pleased the Mormons
he was with and as it would appear the gar
rson at Echo also, to whom word was sent
that the Governor was coming, The scene
at the Canon must have been a remarkable
one. The Governor and his escort we're
brought to pretty roughly by the various
guards and pickets but as soon as the last
one was passed, the sky was on fire with bon
lives among the rocks where the soldiers had
been gathering piles of dry cedar during the
day. quite general fen de .joi, too, let him
hear sufficiently distinctly the echoes from
which the dehle takes its name. The re-
marks made by Governor Cumming, in reply
to an address by the Colonel commanding at
Echo, must have been looked for with inter
est by the Mormons in favor of the admission
They were delivered about ten O'Clock one
evening, and report of tenor was circulated
lated in Salt Lake City early the next even
ing. 1t was pretty Incorporating sort of
speech, but its effect on the popular mind
was decidedly favorable.
The old hands generally stood aloof from
Governor Cumming, (Mr. Worthen thought)
but he had made great Roadway with the
boys, who voted him quite the thing. In
speech which had excited much enthusiasm
he had promised them that he would return
from Camp Scott within a week, and would
bring Mrs. c., his heroic lady, with him. Mr.,
w. thinks the general feeling is now such
that he can do so without peril.
Much division prevailed among the Nor
mons regarding their policy under present
circumstances. Mr.. w. however, was SAN
guine as to the success of the peace party.
Brigham Young has come out openly in
their favor, and Mr. w. does not think any
man or men in the church can stand up
against him, and regards any unpopularty
on his part as but temporary. Young had
gone so far as to station guard in Salt Lake
City and several upper settlements, to pre-
vent their icing burned, which had been the
cause of some remark, particularly in the
southern settlements. But they complained
most bitterly Of his not allowing them to take
the supply trains this spring. and said that
he intended letting them all come in and
make Bridger impregnabe. WIS personal
opinion is, that no attack on United States
troops or trains is now intended by the Nor
mons. In case of war he does not think that
ten thousand men would be sufficient force
for our purposes.
Mr.. Worthen confirms the report of the
evacuation Of Salt Lake City, which com.
menced shortlo after Gov. Cumming arrived.
Except around the guard houses, the city is
almost solitude. The Mormons had some
what resented Governor Cummings issuing
proclamation inviting persons injured to APP
ply to him for redress. For nearly week,
they came in large numbers to his residence.
where he had their narratives written down
and when he returned to Camp Scott. he car
ried the whole of them off with him. No
doubt this praiseworthy step had cooled the
feelings of some of Gov. Cummings Mormon
adherents but Mr.. Worthen does not think
it will prove enough SO as to alter matters
materially.
