The Missouri Delegation Not q Unit.

A few days ago Mr.. Zcllicsffer, of Ten.
nessee, introduced into the House of Rep.
resentaves at Washington a resolution in,
structing the Committee on the Judiciary tc
inquire into the expedieney of reporting a
bill TO regulate and restrain the immigration
or importation into the United States of for.
eign criminals and paupers.
The resolution was adopted, by a large
majority. The Missouri Delegation were
equally divided--AsDE,sox, CRAIe and
WOopsoS voting for it; and Clark, Blair
and Phelps against it.
In view Of the well known fact, that some
Of the European governments systematically
send their crinals and paupers to this coun.
try, we marvel that three Of the represent
aiiyes from democratic Missouri should vote
against resolution Of instructions TO a com.
mittse to inquire into the erpedlsney of re-
porting bill TO stop the sending of paupers
and criminals here, to bring trouble and
expense upon our people.
Blair, Phelps and Clark want the Euro.
pean jails, -penitentiaries, and poor-houses
emptied upon American soil. They are a
beautiful trio.

Important Crisis"

The National" papers are assuring dc
public that this is an important crisis" md
that great care and watchfulness is necesa-
ry TO save the country. This is their usual
song, that precedcs an election; but tbs
time, there is some truth in it, The natin.
al treasury is empty-and we are engaged
in war-and the great national democratic
party has control of every branch of he
government. They are not looking to he
interests Of the country, but quarrelng
about plunder-offices-an sectional gRs-
lions, to the disgrace and detriment md
danger Of the Union. 1t is an "imporant
crisis"--one that should call cut the en-
servative masses, and drive from powsrhs
national Plundsrers.

WHAT They HAVE TO ExPEcr.-Th,
special Washington correspondent Of til.
Pennsylvania says OF Senator Douglas and
his friends:
Mr.. Douglas having abandoned the Dem.
ocratic party, and thrown himself entirely
into the arms of Republicanism and fanati-
eism, it is becoming a duly for the friends
of The tine-honored organization Of Demoera.
GU TO treat him as IFS enemy; and those who
have followed his lead will discover before
long that they have sold their political faith
and honesty for less than "mess of pot
tage." The country is already aware tina,
the President has ousted the postmaster al
Chicago, who forgot that he owed certain
duties 10 the party which was rewarding
him, and gave his influence to tbs enemies
of the national Administration.
President Buchanan is determined 10 re-
ward those vho are faithful, andthe country
may rely upon it that political traitors and
renegades will receive no eountenencs or
favor.
Here we have the shameful fact IN black
and white. Nothing could more forcibly
show the decentralization Of the Democratic
leaders than such open and brazen svowals
Of corruption.

Majors & Russel's Utah Supplies

A late St. Joseph paper states that Mr.
Majors oil the firm of Majors & Russel,
passed through that city, and informed the
citizens that he has selected Nebraska City
N. T., as the point from which he has de.
termined 10 start his train for the transporta-
lion of government freight to Utah.
He says that his firm will start from that
point from eight hundred to one thousand
wagons. They will require from six TO
eight thousand yoke Of oxen, and will engage
the services Of about twelve hundred men,
for which they will pay twenty-five dollars
per month, out and back.
The price which he proposes to give for
oxen is seventy-fve dollsrs per yoke
They will require the stock to be delivered
at Nebraska City, Of the lime of which due
notice will be given through agents or the
press. 1t is probable that Messrs. Majors
& Russell will ask sixty, ninety, and one
hundred AMI twenty days on their purchases
Of stock.
The trains will commence moving at the
earliest practicable moment, certainly not
later than the LIST Of April.

The army was resting quietly in camp
and though eager for brush with the
Mormons, are determined to remain mac
tive until supplies Of troops and provision,
reach them from Fort Laramie and the
states, which were expected, at furthest, in
May.
The health Of the army continues very
good, but four deaths have occurred since
the soldiers have encamped, and two Of
these having resulted from accident.
They have had ne mails from the east for
months, and all reading matter in camp has
been devoured over and over again. The
Mormons are busy constructing fortified.
tons and all manner of defences, and seem
determined TO resist TO the bloody end.
The provision trains commenced moving
from Fort Lcavenworth on the 10Th, and
