LATER FROM THE UTAH ARMY Governoy
Cumming decei0ed by the Moymons.-'rhe New
York Times, Washington correspondent saws
Gen. Scott is in the receipt of dispatches from
Gen. Johnston, dated camp Scott, and five
days later than those from Gov. Cumming.
Gen. JohstOn arrives at conclusions directly
opposite to those of Gov. Cumming, touching
the intentions of the Mormons, who, he
says, are now arriving and fortifying at every
point. The administration is now fearful that
Gov. Cumming has been deceived. Private
accounts from Salt Lake represent him as al
most prisoner, and the Mormon leaders are
exercising full sway over the minds of the
people.
(Hera5G correspond ence.) Gen. SCOTS dis
patches from Utah state that the Mormons
have deceived Gov. Cumming that there is
no disposition to make peace, and that after
they had removed their women and children,
the Mormons returned to Salt Lake CITY,
strengthening their posts. and assumed a
threatning attitude. This intelligence is con-
sidcred by the Department as perfectly relia-
Bile. Capt Marcy was within six days march
of Camp Scott. The forces under General
Johnston were under short allowance, and
they were eating their candles, and every
other oily substance they had, being unwilling
to kill their cattle.

set up by the Buchanan democrats for SUPER
intendent of public strucdon-heaven save

time when the democrats and know nothings
were trying to patch up union against Hon.
Frank P. Blair and the emancipationists, and
somebody was indiscreet enough to advise him
to make a speech, whereof we give speci-
men or two:
"He saw his good friends, the know moth
ings, were organizing. If they carry on
their organization and we carry on ours, as
sure as there is God in heaven, the black

The ADMINISTRATION FIRE UPON SENATOR
DoUGLAs.-Further accounts of the admins
tration Democratic State Convention in Hi
nois represent a division of sentiment on the
question of making war upon Douglas
Those disposed to ''crush OUT the little giant,
even at the cost of giving up the State to the
Republicans, triumphed. They were led by
the newly appointed Office holders of the ad-
minstrston, who undoubtedly represented
its wishes, and probably obeyed its special
instructions. The nominations, the resolu-
tons, and the speeches of the active men5in
the convention, all indicated a settled purpose
to Widen, instead OF healing, the breach and
to leave no alternatives for Mr.. Douglas but
unconditional submission or an open con-
test as well with the administration and its
followers, as with the Republicans. The
convention had representatives from but
small proportion Of the counties of the State,
and portion of these split off when they dis
covered the purposes that controlled it. Lieb,
the new general mail agent for the State, an
ex'Morman, an ex-Republican, and, accord
ing TO public documents, formerly d leader of
the DANTE organization in Kanzas swears that
the Douglas regular ticket shall be beaten at
all hazards, and every postmaster removed
who does not support the administration or
Republican et.-SpriaQfeM Republican.

INYENTIoNs.-A new form of locomotive
has been tried with considerable success in
England. The cylinders and working parts
OF the machine are placed above the boiler,
instead OF underneath, as is usual, and the
boiler is in consequence lowered thus giving
more stability to the engine, and bringing its
center of gravity more directly to the line of
attraction. The removal of mechanism from
under the boiler, leaves a space available for
the construction of a tank, which surrounds
1t IN such manner as to maintain against the
boiler sheet of feed water, which is there
heated by the radiating heat preparatory to
its being ted in. The cylinders are encircled
by jackets, and are placed in the smoke box,
The steam, in its passage from the boilers to
the cylinders, is led into these Jackets, where
it is super heated and it is expected that the
consumption of fuel will be diminished one
half by the use of this invention.
The Emperor Napoleon has recently pur-
chased OF an Englishman the right to new
gun OF peculiar force and described as of re-
markable power The piece was manufac-
tured with great secresy at Paris, the emperor
paying the workmen double wages to remain
constantly In the foundry until it was COM
pleted, so that the secret could by no posi-
hlllty escape. The thickest and strongest
specimen OF stone defence amongst all those
used at Nicennes for essaying the power of

A varnish maker in Paris is said to have
made an invention that excites some alarm.
He refuses to sell it to the Emperor. He is a
sturdy Republican and dares to say 'it is a
means of defense and not Of attack it cannot
be of the same use to government as it may

uous charge of aoAole squadron Of horses.

following:
Some TWO nights since death occurred in
certain portion of our parish, which was

tleman living unhappily with his wife some
few months ago committed suicide. This so
affected her that she often OF a morning de-
clared the ghost Of the deceased had haunted
her during the night. Finally one day she
affirmed the devil had appeared to her, and,
after upbraiding her, stated that hereafter
when she would attempt to eat or drink her
food and water would choke her And strange
TO say, whenever she took any nourishment
OF drank anything she was invariably choked.
This continued for twenty seven DAYS. when
she died of pure starvation. These facts we

GREAT FLOOD IN THE Mississippi CARO-
destroyed By Crease !-Despatches from
Carlo, ILL.,, state that on Saturday afternoon,
a creyasse opened on the Mississippi side OF
the town, through which the water poured at
a fearful rate, filling up the whole space be-
tween the Levees, and it is now running over
the embsnkment on the open side about a
thousand feet.
The Illinois Central R. r, is washed away
on the South Wing. A part of the new no.
tel fell in on Sunday, and the balance is ex-
pected to fail during the night. Nearly all
the houses are tumbling down, drifting away
or sinking. Scarcely building in the city
is expected to Withstand the flood. The
water is two and half feet deep IN the Sc
cond story of the Taylor House, aud Is still
rising rapidly. Mound City is also in danger
of being overflown. The water at this point
still continues to rise and all upper streams
are pouring out foods.

RAINS AND FLooDs-The damage in the
vicinity OF Wheeling, Va, by the heavy rains
at the close OF last week, was very heavy. On
Friday, the streets of Wheeling were COM
pletely flooded with water, so that it was diff
tcult to cross them. The great Western mail
was brought back to the city, owing to dam
age TO railroads. No train left for the West.
and none arrived. -Four trains OF cars were
detained near Steubenville, in consequences of
the sweeping off of a railroad bridge. Travel
on the Cleveland and Pittsburg Railroad, was
also interrupted. Great damage had been in
hicted upon fences and crops by an overflow
OF McMahon's creek. Large trees were washed
out by the roots, and hurled violently away
by the current The bottoms were ali mum
dated. A rise in Wheeling Creek, above Tr-
adelphia. swept away the Hempfed Railroad
Fridge at that place, piers, and all. The
country around was completely inundated,
and the angry flood carried everything before
licences out-houses drift and wood went
rolling down the stream to frightful extent.
Bridges we're also swept away, and travel in
terrupted in other directions
The rain Of Friday and Saturday caused a
lreshet in the Schuylkill, and on Sunday
there was six and half feet of water pour
ing over the dam at Fairmount, aud timber,
COWS, and hogs were swept down the stream.
All the wharyes at Philadelphia, below Fair
mount, were submerged during the day, aud
large quantities of boards were carried away
by the torrent Boats plying between Fair.

continue their trips.
The Lockport IN. W Courier of Friday,
says that all the water courses in that region
are overlooked, low lands are inundated, crops
are left implanted and those that are planted
are rotting. Unless there should be change
of which there was little prospect-the worst
consequences will ensue TO the farming inter

pect people to believe, of the mysterious dis
appearance Of some human bones from Hart
ford, and their equally mysterious appearance
at New York. all without human agency.
Altogether, some nine or ten of the vertebra
and one scapula, or shoulder blade, have
reached the latter city; some dropping down
in the street, and some in the office Of DR..
Orion, who tells the story. On Sunday, tn o
Both ult., DIR. Redmon was at Hartford, and
with another person visited the attic where
the bones sare deposited, and ascertained that
the missing ones correspondent exactly with
the arrivals in New York. The balance of
the bones he tied together with a cord but
during the operation, rib which was lying
quite under the caves was raised without CON
tact, and passing over a distance Of some five
or six feet, gave him blow; and as the party
retired down stairs, heavy pair of shoes was
thrown after them.

The WILLIAMS COLLEGE GYMNASIUM
BuRNED.-The large gymnasium connected
with Williams college was entirely destroyed
by fire last Saturday night. The fire was
first discovered in one the bath rooms about
ten o'clock, and rapidly spread over the
whole building. The facts that no fire had
been kept in or near the building, and that
bundles of hay and traces of turpentine were
found inside, show that it was the work of
an incendiary. 1t was constructed some
seven years since by subscription of the
students, aided by the college corporation and
Amos Lawrence, the so often benefactor of
the college. The loss is estimated at $500.

While the presses Of Kanzas are almost a unit

may be to terminate the contest, which has all
ready been protrected to such an unreasonable
length, and which has produced such fatal con-
