WASHINGTON, June 2l.-Colouel Kane ar
rived here last night, bringing dispatches from
Governor Cumming, whom he left at Camp
Scott on the 49, of May. They were delivered
to the President of the United States. The
purport Of them has not officially transpired,
but il is sseertained that many accounts with
which the public mind has been preoceupied
are erroneous and calculated to deceive the
country in respect to Utah matters generally.
To this fact may be attributed the uncourteous
refusal of Kane 10 communicate with the press
II is understood that Kane denies the truth OF
the telegraphic announcement from Bonneville,
intimating that the army would move on the
arrival of the Peace Commissioners, when, N
fact, Governor Cumming has requested 1t to
remain where it is until orders shall bereceiVed
from Washington. Contrary 70 reports widely
circulated, Kane does not admit there has been
any such want Of harmony between Governor
Cumming and General Johnston as would
jeopardize the pablie interests. He speaks In
eulogistie terms Of the high state Of discipline
In which the latter maintained bis forces, and
OF the praiseworthY spirit manifested By the
army during the winter. The friends Of the
Administration are much pleased with the man.
