1t is runored in shipping circles 10 New
York that the Sombrero Islands are about to
be sold to England for a very handsome sum.
The Islands consist Of guano deposits, from
which a good many cargoes have recently
been taken to Baltimore, England and New
York. The price is about SO per ton cheap
er than the Peruvian article, owing more to
the cheaper rate Of transportation, however,
than the original cost

The object of sending Commissioners to
Utah, is not generally understood The
President, from motives of humanity, believ
ed it to be his duty to make an effort to in
duce the Mormons to refrain from opposing
the authority of the United States, and to
give them an opportunity to retracs their
steps. 10 case they do, says the Washing
ton correspondent Of the New York Herald,
all bur the leaders. except, probably, Young
and Kimball, will be forgiven. 10 the mean
time, however, the most active preparations
are going on to push the military movement
forward, and as the Commissioners will reach
there before military operations can be com
menced, no time is lost by the efJxs to avert
blood-hed la case the Mormons refuse
the propositions, the war will be prosecuted
vigorously as last resort.

A discussion took place recently in the
English House of Commons, OF the reported
intention OF her Majesty's government to en-
list Kroomen on the coast of Africa for the
light infantry service in the Indian army
The scheme had, it appears, been pushed so
far that two officers in the Company's service
were on the point of being sent out for the
purpose, and it was only in consequence Of
its being found necessary first to effect az al
teration in the Mutiny act that their journey
WAS delayed. The arguments used in favor
of the measure are that these kroomen would
stand the climate better than Europeans,
aud would be free from The objections which
apply to the Sepoys, in regard 10 their pecu-
liar feelings Of caste. The objection taken to
til that 1t would have the effect indirectly of
encouraging the slave trade. Whatever may
be the fate Of the project, its serious consid-
GRAFTON shows how modified has become the
feeling 10 England on the subject of slavery.
