tor between the Mormons Of Utah and Gov,
Cumming, is. In one quarter, we have seen
it stated thaS>he is Mormon, and that this
accounts for his selection by the President
as Peace Commissioners. But this is all
wrong he never was Mormon. He is a
young man the son Of the late Judge Kane,
of Philadelphia, and brother of Dr. Kane,
the Arctic Explorer He held the Office Of
Clerk of the District Court until the death
of his father--an event which has taken
place since Col, Kane left for Utah A few
years since, Col. Kane was in this section of
the country, and passed some months Of his
time in the Mormon settlements of Iowa.
He became a favorite with them, and the
town of Kaneville, marked out and inhabited
BY them, was named after him. The Presi-
dent, having a knowledge, probably, of
these facts, deputed him to 60 to Utah, to let
the people know what they must expect if
they persisted in their rebellious course.
His presence seems to have checked them in
their mad career, and it is probable that the
we'll disposed and law-abiding portion of
them will submit to the authorities now sent
there to carry on the Government; the Dan
ties, and those who have been indicted for
treason, will find it convenient to search out
a new home before the new Government is
fairly organized.-St. Louis Republican.
