DEAR SIR: We have the honor to report that
we reached this city on the 9TH instant. We
lost no time in placing ourselves in communica-
ton with the chief men ofthe Mormon people.
After the fullest and lreest conference with
them, we are pleased 20 state that we have SET
tied the unfortunate difficulties existing between
the government Of the United States and pco-
pie of Utah. We are informed by the people
and chief men Of the Territory that they will
cheerfully yield obedience TO the constitution
and laws OF the United States. They cheerful
ly consent that the civil officers of the Terrific
nv shall enter upon the discharge Of their res
pectiye duties, They will make no resistance
to the army of the United States in its march TO
the valleys of Salt Lake or elsewhere. We have
their assurance that no resistance will be made
to the officers, civil or military, of the United
States. in the exercise of their various functions
in the Territory of Utah.
The people have abandoned all the settle
ments north of this, and all the families have
left the city, only about fifteen hundred persons
remaining here to take charge of the property,
and to burn it If the difficulties had not been
settled The people from this city and north of
it have gone south to Provo, fifty miles south
of this, and to points beyond.
We will visit Provo ard the settlements south
in a day or two, and see and confer with the
people, and INFORM them that the difficulties
have been settled, and thus induce them to their
homes We have written to Gen, Johnston by
the messenger that will bear this, informing
him of what had been done, and that he could
march his army to the valley whenever he dcsi.
red to do So We intend to remain and visit
the people and converse with them until Gen.
Johnston's army arrives. We think it impor-
tant that we remain until the army is located
in the valley. We have buta moment to write
as the express will start in few moments.
We will in few days forward detail reported.
We have the honor to be, very respectfully
your obedient servants.

0~TA correspondent Of the. Statesman, wri-
ting from Newark, gives the following interest
Ing item. In passing through Newark a few
nights since, we thought we never had seen a
finer sight than the burning Of those "heavy
jets Of gas:"- ....
The Great Western Coal and Oil Company
have put their large and complete establishment
in Newark, for the manufacture of Coal Oil,
INTO successful operation. A sufficient quantity
of gas is enveloped in the manufacture of the
oil to supply the town with gas and leave a
large surplus. This surplus is conducted in
pipes above the roofand consumed. Tha effect
of half dozen heavy jets of gas burning above
the roof after night, each consuming hundreds
Of feet ofgas per hour, is very fine. .... ...

0rFThe New York Times is known all over
the country as being one of the leading organs
Of the black republican party. In fact it is such
good black republican paper, that our county
Auditor went to work and raised large club
for it. Nobody would suppose that unless it
was ofthe genuine black republican stripe, that
he would be guilty of such an act as that
Well, this same New York Times IN late
number, in speaking ofthe black REPUBLICAN par
ty, says
The best proofof the ability ofa party to gov
ern the country, is found in the wisdom with
which is conducts its own affairs. We fear that
the public at large, reasoning upon this basis,
will not draw encouraging conclusions concern
ing the fitness of the Republicans for assuming
control OF the national government

The Sub-TreasuPy Law.

Our neighbor, in his last paper sets up one
ofhis biggest howls against the Sub-Treasury
lswpassed by the Legislature at its last session.
Well, reader, what do you suppose is Mr.. Hat
toms principal objection to this law? Simply
this: Itstops the Treasurer from loaning the
money Of the tax payers of the county to the
Gadiz bankrs at per cent per annum. Is not
that an awful objection? Just look at it. Un-
der this and other laws passed by the last Leg.
islatute the tax-payers need pay but one-half of
their taxes at time, instead Of all at once, as
heretofore. Heretofore there was always large
surplus in the county treasury, which the
treasurer conld either loan to bankers or some-
body else or use it in some other manner
Now that surplus will not be in the treasury
Bankers nor pets nor favorites will have the
opportunity Of getting rich by re loaning the
hard earned money Of the tax payers of the
county. That is the difference between the
present subtreasury law and the laws it re-
pealed. Neither does the law compel or ex
peet the people to pay their taxesin gold or sill
vsr; ;bnt It expects them when they elect Treas
ureFs TO elect men who are capable of attending
to business. 1t expects these Treasurers when
they. have a lot of money on any bank to go
and draw the specie for it, and circulate that
specie among the people. 1t expects the Treas
urer to earn bis fees That is what the Sub
Treasury law acontemplates and expects, and
nothing else. notwithstanding the howls that
Is setnp against this law Ofone thing our read,
ersmay rest assured will never be repealed.
1tSmay besalnended in some particulars, as it
no dsubtneeds TO be, but it will never bc re-
pdaIsda Those that now oppose u, in less than
five years VIII approve fit, and thank the leg
islature for passing such an excellent law. So
howl on, neighbor.

THE UTAH ARMY-NFWS FROM GEN
JOHNSTON.


HEADQUARTERS, DEPARTMENT OF UTAH
Camp on Bear River, U. T., June 10, 1853.
MAJOR: | have the honor to report that the
march Of the army of Utah commenced on the
18th instant. The advance, composed of the
2 dragons, mmanded by CO., Cooke the vol
unteer battalion, commanded by Lieut. Col.
Bee, and Phelps light battery, arrived here
on the 14th instant. The 9TH infantry, Col
Waite commanding, and Reno heavy battery,
on the 18th, accompanied by part OF the sup.
ply train. To-day the 10Th infantry comman-
ded by Col Alexander, and battalion, COM
posed OF l company of cavalry, l company of
mounted rifles 3 companies Of the Sd, compa-
nies of the 9th, and l company Of the 9TH in
fantry, commanded by Col. Loring, will arrive
with the remainder Of the supply train. Tie
river rises during the night, but can be fordcd in
the afternoon the crossing, therefore, OF the
Dragons, volunteers, and trains was not eiiec-
ted til Yesterday evening. An old bridge above
the ford was sufficiently repaired TO enable Capt.
Phelps to pass his pieces and caissons over by
hand. This evening Captain Reno'S battery
will be crossed in the same way. The 9th in.
fantry and trains will cross this evening, and
if there is time afterwards, the 10th infantry.
Col. Lorlng's battalion and trains will also cross
and the march will be resumed tomorrow in
the order directed by my order Of this date,
herewith The march to the valley will be
made in five days.
On the day ofmy arrival at this place, | re-
ceived a communication from the United States
commissioners, the Hon. l. W. Powell and Mai.
B McCulloch, of which the enclosed is a copy.
| have the honorto transmit copy ofa few re-
marks which it was thought should address
to the people to allay an unfounded appiehen-
sion prevailing among them.
Captain Newton, of the Engineer Corps, was
detached Yesterday with an Sccort of an officer
and thirty men and the most experienced guide
of tie mountains, James Bridger, to examine
thoroughly the country from this point to the
head OF Muddy creek, which flows into Bear
river. (See map) | believe the elevated table
land between this and the western end of Cache
valley can be ascended by easy gradations, and
that the opposite side can be descended into
Cache valley without difficulty, lra good road
should be found practicable, as expect, would
respectfully suggest that the commander Of the
forces here may he authorised to order its con
structon Immediately. The only communica-
ton between important districts should not long
be allowed to continue through long and diff
cult canons easily obstuctcd. The health Of
the troops continues excellent. .

The New York Tribune, of the 10Th inst, in
an article on this subject of the meeting of thc
iirstmortgase bOndholders Of this road, says
"a meeting OF the First Mortgage Bondhol
ders Of the Steubenvle and Indiana Railroad
was held to day in the office Of Cummings
Alexander q Greene. The First Mortgag,
! BOudholders agreed to Fund $4,000, belong
ing to two years interest on their bonds, amount
ing to Sl,500,OO0 receiving therefor new income
bonds bearing p cent interest over half pay
able in five years from the first of January rext
and the balance in ten years from the samC
date; the interest on them to be paid semi-an.
nually the same as the other bonds, provided
the remainder Of the floating debts of the Com
pany can be funded by similar bonds, payable
in ten years from the Ist ofJanuary next. The
Interest due on the First Mortgage Bonds cou.
pons up to the first Of January next is to be
paid in money on that day. The accFuing in.
terest on other floating debt up to that time will
also probably have to be paid then in money
This will clear the Company Of all debts up to
that date, except the Second Mortgage Bonds,
amounting to $5oo,00O, indorsed by the Penn
sylvania Central Railroad Company, which will
have TO wait until the First Mortgage claims
and the present floating debt Of S250,OO0 are
wiped out. A committee was appointed to CO.
operate with the Trustees, with powers to act
with them in ellecting this arrangement. 1t is
believed that il this plan is carried out the com
pany will be able to go on prosperously and
meet all its liabilities"

GREAT SALT LAKE CITY,

Utah Territory, June II, 1858.
DEAR SIR. We have the pleasure OF intor-
ming you that after full and free conference
with the chief men ofthe Territory, we are in
formed by them that they will yield obedience
to the constitution and laws of the United
States; that they will not resist the execution
OF the laws in the Territory Of Utah; that they
cheerfully consent that the civil officers Of the
Territory shall enter upon the discharge Of their
respective duties; and that they will make no
resistance to the army of the United States in
its march to the valley Of Salt Lake or else
where We have their assurance that no re-
sistance will be made to the officers, civil or
military, Of the United State in the exercise oi
their various functions in the Territory Of Utah.
The houses, fields and gardens Of the people
Of this Territory, particularly in and about Salt
Lake City, are very insecure. The animals oI
your army would cause great destruction oI
property il the greatest care should not be OBJ
served in the march and in the selecting o
camps. The people Of the Territory are some
what uneasy for fear the army, when it shall
reach the valley, would not properly respect
theii persons and property We have assured
them that neither their persons nor property
would be injured or molested by the army un-
der your command We would respectfully
suggest, in consequence of this feeling of unea-
siness, that you issue a proclamation to the peo-
pie Of Utah, stating that the army would not
trespass upon the rights or property of peceable
citizens during the sojourh in, or the march o.
your army through, the Territory. Such a
proclamation would allay the existing anxiety
and fear Of the people, and cause those who
have abandoned their homes to return to their
houses and farms.
We hTe made inquiry about grass, wood, &C.,
necessary for the subsistence and convenience
of your army. We have conversed with Mr..
Ficklin fully on this subject, and given him all
the information we have, which he will itnpart
to you. We respectfully suggest that you
march to the valley as soon as it is convenient
'or you to do SO.

your obedient servants.

we see a beautiful howl set up in some Of
the black republican paper against the present
Legislature because it did not appropriate 900
more than what it did towards the support OF
this institution And bccouse it did not do so,
the black republican trustees, who have con-
troll Of that institution, have determined to close
1t for two months, and send the poor unortu-
nate persons that are its inmates back to their
respective counties. Ever since this institution
was built it has cost entirely too much money
to keep it going A system of reckless extrav-
agance has marked its proceedings. Here is
what the last Legislature appropriated to the
three different Lunatc Asylums in this State.

Southern Ohio, 27,7O0,0O
Central Ohio. &c, 10000
Ought not the officers of this Northern Lu-
natc Asylum be ashamed Of themselves for
their reckless extravaganza? They have no
more patients (if as many than either of the
other asylams, and yet they must shut up for
the want Of money. We would say to Gov.
Chase-turn the whole batch Of them out Of
Office and appoint good men in their places, and
see If the institution cannot be managed more
economically than what it has been There is
no excuse whatever, for closing this institution,
and the sooner good honest men have charge oil
it. the better it will be for its inmates and for
the tax payers Of the State. In fact there is
and has been entirely too much extravaganza
in the management Of all of our State Insttu
tions. There are entirely too many big dinners
and parties given in them at the expense Of the
State, for the benefit Of either the inmates OF
the institutions, or the pockets ofthe tax pay
crs. Let there be general reform in this
matter, for it is needed
