The Mormons Leaving Salt Lake.-Tha
War over.
WAsHINcToN Jure 10.


Official information has been re-
ceived from Gov. Cumming of his
arrival at Salt Lake City and favor
able reception there. Brigham
Young formally delivered to him all
authority and counseled the people
TO obedience.
There was not the slightest dem
onstration Of hostility by Brigham,
and the prominent Mormons were to
have left Salt Lake On Tuesday last.
The various Mormon settlements
were broken up and the inhabitants
were moving South, for or in the di.
rection of Sonora. The scene is re.
presented to have been most dis.
tressipg and mournful. as the men
women and children, poorly clad and
unprovidcd for. uncomplainingly
took their departure from the Terri
tory.
A message was received in the
House 10 day. from the President,
enclosing copy of dispatch from
Gov. Cumming, dated May , !, and
received at the State Department
Yesterday. From this, the President
say. ,he,e is reason TO believe that
our difficulties with Utah have ter.
minated. and that the laws are re-
stored. He congratulates Congress
nn this auspicions event; expresses
the opinion T at there will be no oc.
casion TO make the appropriation for
the three regiments OF volunteers. re-
Gently authorized for quclling the
the disturbances in Utah, and for the
protection of the enigrant trains
and supplies. and says that Texas
can be defended by the regular
troops now within her limits. The
President is more gratitied, because
the events in Utah will afford some
relief to the Treasury and not re.
quire q loan and additional taxation
of the people.
The dispatch etates that some oI
the Mormons are yet in arms, and
speaks OF the mischief they are capa-
bic OF rendering as Guerillas.
The way for the emigrants for the
Pacific was open.
Gov. Cumming would leave fol
the South on the 81 of May. lie
says that he will restrain all the pro-
ceedings of the military for the pres
ent, until he shall receive additional
news from the President.
A sudden outbreak between Sen.
ators Gwin and Wilson. this evening
caused profound astonshment. Mr.
Wilson was speaking Of the way
Government was plundered in Cali
iornia. Mr.. Gwin intimated tina
Mr.. Wilson talked like a dema
gogue. Mr., Wilson replied that HI
would rather be a demagogue thar
a thief, meaning to epply the tern
"thief" to the plnnderers OF the Gov
ernment, in California. Mr.. Gwil
asked for aneIplanatiOn. Mr.. Will
said he had none to give, upon whicl
, Mr.. Gwin said he was a calumnia
tor, liar and coward. There the col
} loquy ended.

This diversion from the date al
ready fixed for their departure, is
owing to the heavy rains which have

The Difficulty between Messrs. Harris
and Hughes.
WASHINGTON, June 7.

In the House of Representatives
on the Sd inst, Mr.. Harris. Of ILL.,,
denounced personal statement
made by Mr.. Hughes Of Ind, as false,
when Mr.. Hughes called him a liar.
Mr.. Harris replied it is false and you
can wear it at your pleasure.
Mr.. Hughes subsequently sent q
challenge to Mr.. Harris who readily
accepted it. Through the influence
Of the friends of both parties the
challenge was afterwards suspended
or temporarily withdrawn for expla-
nations, and late tonight an ar
rangement was made by which the
offensive language was withdrawn
by each in the order in which 1t was
uttered, and thus the difficulties
have been amicably adjusted.
