Governor Young was very polite to all the Of
ficers Of the army, inviting them to partake Of
his hospitality at Salt Lake City, and to spend
the winter there.
But all accounts concur in saying that the
MOrmons will leave Utah Territory in the spring,
and it is said that COL Johnston is firmly of this
belief that he asks no increase of the numerical
force Of the army under his command, although
supplies will, Of course, have to be sent to him.
Only one officer, Lieut. Smith, I'd Dragons,
was sick, all the others, as also the officers Of
the territory, were in excellent health.
Altogether the news presents the condition Of
the army engaged in the expedition in an unex-
pectedly favorable condition. They may go into
Great Salt Lake City even before endorsements
can reach them from the frontier, but it is part
Ofprudence to send them. and the Government
should do it.
