The STRAWBERRY FEsTrvAL, given BY Tho

THE STRAWBERRY FEsTIvAL. given BY the
Young Mems Christian Association at Grimes
Hall Tuesday evening was very pleasant affair
| and well attended. Some three hundred ladies
| and gentlemen from the several churches, and
representing all classea, were present. Good
music was provided. In addition to instrumen-
tai music by Alberts Band, Mr.. Hawley's Choir
sung number of pieces in excellent style, and
NJ. Taylor gave several pieces upon the Piano
In style worthy Of the occasion. great
abundance Of berries and cream, cake lemon
ade, etc. was provided, which stood the attack
Of hungry visitors to late hour. The room
was much cooler than visitors expected to end
It, and the party was as pleasant and agreeable
% any that we have attended.
The Association, in its efforts to provide
young men with place of resort for their lei
sure hours, good society, and keep them from
bad company and from forming bad habits, de.
serves the countenance and support of every
GOOD citizen. Many young men fall into idle
aud dissolute habits, by looking for necessary
society among the vicious, because they have
not the entry into better society. This Assoca-
ton can, if properly managed, do great deal
Of good, and exercise decidedly bene6c al in
fuence upon the young men Of Burlington.

Decidedly, the aspect of the future is gloomy.
The Kansas affair has not united the South in
favor of the Administration. 1t has given new
life to the Americans it has excited deep in
dignation in the Democratic ranks in the South
on account of the prescription it has given rise
to it has not destroyed Wise, and it has divi-

ware. In North Carolina D. X. McRae, Eemo-
crat, is making stump canvass for Governor,
and is denouncng Lecompton in Tennessee T.
T. Stanton was warmly welcomed and praised
for MS hostility TO Lecompton, while in Louis
lana the btterest strife is brewing between rival
factions. In Missouri The two American men,

voted for Lecompton, are both in danger of be-

the State Department OF the Union, &c, is ex-

vention which is to be held in the State of Maine
on the last day of June. There is some oppo-
sition manifested in Maine. though Mr.. Buchan-
an has pretty well cared for the gentlemen who
have controlled the politics of that minority
State for years past. They ought to put things

Mr.. VANDEvEa's CoMpKTrroR.-The Demo-
cratic Congressional Convention in the Second
District Of Iowa vas held at Iowa City on the
2lst inst. Hon. VIM. E. Lefingwell Of Clinton
county, was nominated as their candidate, to
run in opposition TO Mr.. vandever, the Repub.
lican nominee. He is not considered 90 strong

sensed to the Convention, but is personally pop.

nature tits moreover given out that hs s op-
posed to the Lecompton policy of the Admins
tration, but on this point he will be closely
cross-questoned when he mounts the stu.ao.
The Republicans, however, look forward to
certain victory in the contest. With regard to
the qualifications Of the two candidates, the
Davenport Gazette remarks:
Mr.. Nandever is one Of the most talented
men In this District, and can make an excellent
speech. Besides, he possesses indefatigable in.
dustry, with moral character which will make
comparisons odious to his opponent. NJ. Lef-
ingwell will have his hands full if he stumps the
District with Mr. Vandever. that we promise
him. The Republicans will find that their can.

Washington, June 20, 1868.
Dispatches were received from Gen. Johns

Fort Bridger. Some of the latter we're dated

of the Territory, and had succeeded in satisfy

Bile without compromising them the Federal
authorities. All Brigham Young asked was
fair trial, but he objected to aJury from the
camp. Judge Eckles had thwarted Gov. Cum
ming seriously By his extra juricial intervention
and it was known that others were combined
with him for the same object.
The last dates present less promising aspect
OF affairs, and mainly from the proceedings
which Judge Eckles and the United States Mar
shal had sought to institute, in defiance Of the
Governors policy. 1t was believed that their
efforts were directed toward collision sas the
most efiectual means of subjugation. Brigham
Young had assured Gov Cumming that he was
willing to give himself up, If he could have
reasonable chance of justice. The latest letters
state that Gov. Cumming would go to Salt Lake
about the FIRST OF June, attended by the other
| civil officers. Mr.. Forney, the Indian Agent,
was to accompany him, and to open an office
| there or at Provo. He had succeeded in his ne.

reports favorable progress with others.
