The President, in an oiiicSl communication to

Considering the Termination arrived at, it vo2'd
puzz- alybcdy TO Gutss iof what object tls eXpe-
oiiion Was u.certaken. Ii the Government had no
other object n view IN marcirg an amy into the
Mormon country, except merely to enable Cum
ming to supcrsede Brigham Young as Governor, Il
must be ccLft SEED tbs! they have paid pretty dcary
for their whistle. The sane thing, it is evident

Had III cent Col. KaLe on tits business, ia
s,etd Of Col. Johnston and bis sfmy, they might
have sa,td at The east cslcuatiOn ten millions Of do
lars. Such ,s'irg of tie time tie expedition was
undertaken might perhaps have been thought TOO
tIilrg to demand a second thought, bat IN the
present condition Of the Treasury ten millions OF
dollars 10 hand would be quite convenient aud ac-
ceptshe. Ten millions have gone however, ard
the only feeling Of the President seems no@ to be
gratitude ard satisfaction that ten milGoos more
ale not to 60 the same way
But, although the MOrmons have received Gov.
Cumming with all due hOIors and with abundant
professions of respect and obedience, they Still re-
main as unrecor ciled - ever to the IDEA Of Gen
tile army 10 be guartered among them. Saould
that policy be persisted in, they still threaten as
they have done from the beginning, to burn DOM
their hCutes, to move Of with their cattle, proyis-
ior and household goods, ard to eiye behind tbem
OILY desert, without either shelter supplies for
the troops. Tie idea of regular military resistance
appears TO have been abandoned, and probably the
means Cf the NoImoDs il this respect have been
greatly exaggerated, bOtL b. themselves aud Others
but some Of them we're still in arms ard a serious
impression appears to have been made upon the Gov
ernor as TO what they night do in the way Of euer-
Iills warfare. AS il to gie proof Of !he sincerity
of This determination, Governor Cunning states
that aIec part Of the population of the Sale Lake
district are already Oh The move. Their destl-
nation is sOuth but where particularly even they
Themselves do not seem to bnow. Ii Is stated that
Young, Kiuiball and others of the Influential lead
cIs have Abandoned THAR bouscs to ioin thee ciG-
grants This abandonment We are, however, it,
clincj to suspect IS oDIy provisional. Rather thaa
submit to their hcocIacy overturned or greatly
e. asEeered by the quertering Of warlke army IL
their valley, treir past history shove tlgm npi III.
capable Of tie destruction AID the IN grafton which
they threaten. But TIE calculation OF the Nor
Nuns is piUter'y ~ PREVENT ~ tbs threatened
abandonment III OF the country tddSstruction Of their
imprCs en,clts, the further advance nj the army,
and, after the Withdrawal Of the troops to return
again to Salt Lake AID is vicinity 1t ia, however,
not iInprob bile that tie Mormon leaders may ia-
tend to fx their ecclesiastical Headquarters at some
point Of the Territory removed from the tra' elrd
route 10 AID llo,a California AID @herc they would
be less cypostd than at Sal; Lake City TO Gentle
collision or ovC ssight.
Whatever may thus far have been done

Young as prophet He told them that the troops
would not enter he valley ile last Autumo, AMI
iley did net He tod them they wou d have time
tho Spfpg 20 soa aud gather their wheat, ard this
prophecy also has been fulfilled. He has further
proplesisd that the troops will not enter the valley
at sl aEd ss to this, too, it seems not unlikely that
he may tuin ont true pgophet. AT all events, 1t
appears that Gov. Cumming, i'll the exercise of
that authority over the troops vested in hin as
Governor has rc-cchCed, as i; were, the orders of
Brigham Young Of last Autumn, aud has prohibited
their lu.ther advance TIL &c shall be able 70
uuuicate with the President
So far indeed from tending in any way TO abate
tie fanatcism of tie MoTmons, We very much fear
that he late uttack upon them, especially IL they
GONE Oh as unscahed rs they lew nave every proc
pcct q doing, GiI IIhdue that fanatcism to 4
still higher degree. 1t also must tend TO inAime
that sentiment OF hostility to the people aud Gus
eminent Of the United Statcs the existence oi
which amor the Ii is not st all 10 DC wondered st,
and which MAJ ) et result in very troublesome con-
Sequences.
