CRIrTENDEE SPEECH. Washington, April o.
In the Senate this morning, Mr. Crittenden made a
brilisnt speech sgainst Englishs Kansas bill, the
objections to which be exposed in a very forcible
manner. A Republican Senator was so much
charmed with the vigor and eloquence Of the Did
Ksutucan, that at the end Of the speech he called
out to a Senator near: 1--WE shall have to make
Crttenden President yet" Mr. COllamer followed
in powerful argument, and was succeeded by Mr.
Hunter, Of Virginia.

GOVERNOR DENVER.

Gov Denver of Kansas, arrived in this city on Tues
day last and is stopping at the Kirkwood House. He is
in good health and undoubtedly would weigh at least
''stone than he did when le undertook the man
agement of 'borer ruiianism and ''bceding Kansas.
1t has been stated in the papers that it his intention
to resign his office, but this, assured is without
any foundation whatever in truth So faithfully and
judcously has he administered the in that
distracted Territory that such step his part would
indeed be calamity. Instead Of making speeches,
he has used every in his power to break up the
awess bands which have disturbed the Of the Ter
rtoy and to promote the happiness prosperity of the
people

EXPEDITION,

We are advised that new schedule has been arranged
by the Ohio and Mississippi Railroad between Cincinnati
and ST. Louis, by which the time between the two cities
has been reduced to fourteen hours As the first fruits
of this increased speed, which went into effect the
18th inst, we received "Wednesday morning the
papers from ST. Louis of Monday morning previous
only forty-eght hours having been consumed on the
journey This certainly is extraordinary speed. The
New Orleans papers the receipt of papers and
letters from New York in four days and half, and
have several times noticed the arrival in this city Of pas
senges from New Orleans in eighty eigby-one hours
The mails however, continue to come by the slow line,
as papers still require six days time to make the journey
from New Orleans We hope that the mails will soon
begin to feel the impulse of increased speed from the
Southwest ind that they will be forwarded with the
same expedition as passengers already

sPEEcH on THE HOS. JOINS BrIL.

We sincerely congratulate our friends Of the Intel
hgeaeer that they have hually concluded the publ
cation of the speech Of Hon John Bell the retiring
senator from Tennessee. We have now forgotten
whether the publication commenced before the hon
orable senator left this city but be that as it may,
we have no doubt he will be greatly surprised TO
find it concluded before tho dog-days Nobody,
hereafter, will question the patience and persever-
of the Hteligenesr; for we regard it's work in
publishing the senator's speech at all, as conclusive
on this subject
Some one has said-a very lazy fellow, no doubt
that public library contained any authority
which could be available to him, as of all horrors the
very greatest was to be compelledto see thousand
matters of possible interest in order to get hold of
something really needed. John Bell made speech
he makes short speeches--and as, N his last
winters Kansas effort, he is reported to have shown
distinctly, in the first twentyfour hours of his talk
ing, which side he advocated, We did expect to be
able to comprehend what his purpose by the
speech which we have been receiving in regular in
stalments through the columns of our own political
contemporary. But we do not see exactly what the
senator was after. Perhaps he desired to make a
speech. He has been thought to have weakness
of that kind. alga
By the way, since the senatorsfrom Illinois SO
warmly applauded and endorsed the Crittenden
amendment, which Mr. N Sargent thought capital
platform for party, it has occurred to us that the
Latelhgenoey would be willing to let the country
know whether Mr.. Douglas was one of the initiated
in the circular movement to which we referred the
other day. The iuteHigsncer approves the Critten-
den amendment and is suspected of knowing the
exact whereabouts of Mr. N. Sargent. As the clouds
seem TO be passing Off it is than right that
We should have report about these matters We
by the papers that the republicans are disposed
to rdicule the Sargent affair; and the Tribune init
mates that they want coalition at all with tho
South. Now, if Mr.. Douglas 10 party to the new
programme, we certainly ought to know it. Give
us light Es

IMPORTANT FROM UTAH.

The official communications in relation to at
fairs in Utah, which we spread before our
readers this morning, are exceedingly important.
Arrangements between Governor Cumming and
his associates of the Peace Commission the
one part and the Mormons on the other give
assurance Of an entirely peaceful solution of the
Mormon problem. The conditions agreed upon in
the conference between Governor Cumming, the
peace commissioners, and tho Mormon leaders, are,
that the troops shall enter the city without oppos
ton the civil officers are to be allowed to perform
their duties without interruption; and uncondi-
tiona obedience to the laws the part of the resi-
dent population. On the other hand, all the past
offences of the Mormons are to be forgotten, as
stated in the Presidents proclamation and all
houses are to be closed against strangers, except
the ones occupied by the governor and his assist
ants.
These conditions indicate the points of extreme
sensitveness on the part of the Mormons. There
can be little doubt but that the people of the Terri
tory have been disposed regard the descent of the
army as signal for attacking their peculiar social
habits. Such, indeed, to considerable extent, was
the warning thrown out by the press many regard
ing the Utah expeditions deliberate movement
on the part of the government to root out polyg-
amy special crusade against habits which all
condemn, but which the federal government never
for moment thought of disturbing We have never
been Of those who believed that in the face of the
strong force despatched to the Salt Lake country,
the people there would persist in course of oppo-
stion to the federal authorities That such force
was necessary however is apparent to the least
Informed /; and the time had arrived when were
required either to surrender the country to the pos
session and control of the Mormon tribes or vndi
cate the authority of the constitution over it.
Independent Of the open rebellion of Young and
his sanity followers overruling necessity exist
ed, in our judgment, for despatchng powerful
military command to the interior of the continent,
which had already become important highway
for overland immigration to the Pacific coast. That
highway became utterly obstructed in Utah, and
was infested by savages in almost every part of it,
1t would be an instructive lesson to present to the
country the vast amount of plumber, robbery, and
murders which have been committed against our
people in crossing the plains to the West and South
west. These facts point out what course the gov
eminent ahould pursuo and thoro pooms TO be
little doubt but that great benefits will result to the
country by throwing into the interior force well
calculated to intimidate the savages and convince
them that the strong arm of the federal government
is ready to avenge their insults and outrages COM

THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND MR.. SENATOR
DOUGLAS.

We respectfully suggest to our judicial cotempo
rary the Integenr that if we failed to exercise all
proper patience and prejudged the position of the
senator from Illinois, its admontions might have had
more point had they been accompanied with some
little testimony showing that the Geographic report
of the senator's speech was essentially incorrect
We did certainly hope it was So but the speech itself
is now before us, which we transfer to our col
umns. We have no disposition, whatever, to con-
denim or treat unfairly Senator Douglas. His public
life exhibits long and ardent support of the demo-
cratic party, with the single exception of his OPP
position to the leading measure Of that party du-
ring the late session of Congress He had won
to himself in that service, to his individual for
tunes, powerful interest he was ambitious to
be our standard-bearer in the election which placed
Mr.. Buchanan in the presidential office. Yet, in
the prime of life and the vigor of manhood
beloved by many and respected by all, of command
ing intellect and position he had only to prove faith
full his former associates and true to the great par
ty that had elevated him to tho front rank of its emf
nent statesmen to call to his support the united de-
mocracy of the nation. 1t is not our business to
analyze the motives of the senator from Illinois.
We have too much respect for our free institutions
and for the sacred principle of individual liberty il
political and in social life, to call the senator to ac-
count for what he has said in his Chicago speech
He had right to adopt such chart he pleased to
guide his political conduct. He could support the
cause of the democratic party or oppose that
II il his business to decide what he will pur
sue We have no appeals to make to him.
We would not even remind him of his former polit
cal life or recur to those events in our history
which afford abundant testimony that the party
which he seems now ready to derange and OPP
pose has sought to bestow upon him its highest
honors, as he undoubtedly had commanded its
most generous confidence. But Mr.. Douglas
ia nevertheless responsible to that party for his
present conduct We regard him only in his re
lations to potics If he prefers to oppose the de-
mocracy, to oppose the republicans, to set up for
himself and attempt to out of the public new
organization, placing himself at its head, we shall
treat him enemy, and we shall freely express
the conviction that he has forfeited the confidence
of his former associates. Mr. Douglas will find it as
difficult, we apprebend, to raise up an effective
Douglas party as Joe Smith and Brigham Young
have in building into form special religious organ
izaton in opposition to the s,ttlei convictions of
