UTAH NEWS
WASHINGTON, June 20

Col. Kane has arrived here, bringing dis,
patches from Gov. Cummings whom he left
at Camp Scott, May 18Th. They were de-
livered to the President. Their purport has
not officially transpred but it is ascertained
that many of the accounts with which the
public mind has been preoccupied are erron-
Gus. To this fact may be attributed the u ncur-
eous refusal of Col Kane to communicate
with the President. 1t is understood that
Col Kane denies the truth of the telegraphic
announcement from Bonneville, intimating
that the army would move on the arrival OF
the Peace Commissioners Gov. Cumming
has ordered it to remain where it is until
orders shall be received from Washington.
Contrary to the reports widely circulated
Col, Kane does not admit that there has been
any such want of harmony between Gov.
Cummings and Gen. Johnston, as would
'jeopardize A" the public interest. He speaks
in high terms Of Gen. Johnston, and the
state of discipline in which the latter
maintained his forces, and Of the praise-wor-
thy spirit manifested by the army during the
winter,
There was great hope there as elsewhere
that the war was at an end a peace party
had been formed and was sufficiently strong
to arrest the march of the Mormon forces
against our forces last spring. 1t was the
impression in Utah that Brigham Young
who espoused the cause of the U. S. would in
this respect maintain his position. There
was at one time strong opposition before emf

TORONTO MARKET REPORT.

FRONT STREET, Corn MARKET SQUARE.
TORONTO, C. W, June 10, 1858.
We have had, since my last unusually heavy
rains, and the weather continues cold, and very
unsettled We hear of some of the crops in low
lands being submerged and fears are entertained,
here well as at the Wost of our coming harvest.
We think it, however, premature to form any pre-
dcton, as a fortnight of warm forcing weather
would disspate all fears and yield us crop equal
to fair average at least. The receipts at Albany
from the West have been very heavy, and show an
increase this year, over 1857, equal to 507, 096
barrels of -four, but receipts will fall off. Our
last advices from England advise continued de-
preston in the bread-stuf market.
FLOUR-Our stocks have been reduced, and the
state of our roads not admitting of replenishment
holders manifest more stiffness. There are heavy
from the East in market, but at low figures. What
-four comes in fresh from the mills meets ready
sale at quotations, and some favorite brands are
scarce.
WHEAT,-Supplics Of prime, for similar rea-
sons, have fallen off; and, consequently, such Of
prime quality as offered on market, are ca
gerly purchased up at an advanced figure To-day
the weather has been dry and toleraby warm, and
if of any duration, we may have good supplies in
market for the next month.

Just decision of the Postmaster General, that
people whose business is of such a nature
that they will not use their own not over re-

have the facilities of the post-otice The let
ters sent to bogus addresses are not delivered,

they are sent to the verdant people who have
entrusted their money to bogus lottery mana
gers, bogus gift enterprises, bogus doctors

plenishing his glass with sands that are "dia-
mond sparks" or gold dust, at least.
If an account Of all these rascally enter
prises could be written it would make one OF
