Mr.. JAMES H. BLACKSTONE arrived at St.
Louis on the 18th inst, from Salt Lake
City July 21st. He reports that Salt Lake
City everything was quiet. The Mormans
were preparing to leave some coming into
Kansas Territory, and others going into
Sonora. Governor CuMMING was in the
city. BRIGHAM YouNG had left, stating,
as he left that he was going to Sonora. bnt
it was thoughs that he WAS still lurking
about the city, Many Indian bands were
rowing about the plains, and Mr. BLACK
STONE made some narrow escapes. The
Pawness made an attack upon one of MA
yoRE u RussELL's trains, taking all that
they could carry off with them and then
bidding the teamsters to drive on. The
Mormons that are returning are vying with
the Indians in begging from the trains and
troops. They are entirely destitute Of the
commonest necessities of life. bs7ess

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
The NaOrnaONs.

Advices from Salt Lake City to July
10th, represent that the Mormons are re-
turning to Salt Lake city as fast as the
means of transportation will enable them.
They are singularly deficient in wagons.
and the most of those who return look
poverty stricken in the last degree. Wo-
men are travelling barefootcd, and the men
are without garments. Everything wit
messed by the Genliles goes to confirm the
fact, that the accounts by the Mormons OF
their power and ability to contend with the
United States, were the most idle and
ridiculous boasts. meant to deter the Presi-
dent from sending on armed force into
that country. The present peace is said
to be falscious, the bitter feeling against
the Government remaining in all its force,
and showing itself in the refusal of ordi-
nary accommodations 20 the United States
offiears
The Mormons are about TO make bold ef-
fort to be admitted into the Union. When
that question comes up. there will be a
great deal to say Oh both sides of it.

of appointing delegates, to the Republican
Nominating County Convention. and to
select a candidate from German Township
to be presented to the Convention for
nomination for County Commissioners,
certify, that at that meeting Geo. Pomeroy
received 'wo-thirds and Moses Keyser one
third of all the ballots cast After the vote
was announced Mr. Pomeroy stated to
the meeting that he did not wish to be a
candidate before the Convention, and that
he would withdraw then il Mr.. Keyser
wonld consent to be a candidate, Mr.. Keyser
then stated that he was satisfied with the
choice the meeting had made, and he de-
clined the offer of Mr.. Pomeroy, and we
understood from his statement that he
would not be before the Convention for the
Office of Commissioner.
