FROM UTAH.

Advccs from Utah to December 1st
have reached St. Louis. The troops
all have winter quarters at Fort Bird
gos, with the exception Of Col. Cook s
command, which was posted 40 miles
distant from Ham Fork, where there
was still scant supply Of grass.
The weather continued very mild, &
good health prevailed.
Provisions were on hand sufficient to
last till June with close Allowance
Nearly two-thirds of all the animals of
the expedition have died. The Nor
mons are said to be preparing to leave
for the British possessions. Pioneer
parties have already left. Brigham
Young has sent quantity of salt to
Col. johnson, who sent it back, stating
that he would hang any messenger on
a similar errand from the same quar-
ter. Young also invited the officers Of
the army to partakc of his hos itality
ard spend the winter at Salt Lake city.
Col. Johnson is so VOL assured that
the Mormons will leave in the spring,
that he asks no increase of the force
now under his command Gov. Cum
mings has issued proclamation decla-
ring the Territory in state Of rebel
lion.

subtlcty. His tender of Hospitality"
and his arrangements to "leavc in the

circumspection. lie will gain time by

Tho "congregated wisdom" Of the
State has not recovered sufficiently
from the effects Of keeping holidays, to
do much of consequence in the regular
way Of business. We learn from the
Richmond correspondence of the Vince,
ling Daily Times, that q bill has been
reported, in pursuance Of the Govern
or's recommendations "to organise the
militia and provide for the defence of
the commonwealth"
regret to learn that the bill is like
ly to pass, though it is opposed by
most of the western members. GThe
bill owing to its length, cannot be pub
ished until to morrow.
1t will be seen that the bill provides
for three mustcrs annually, two of
companies and one of the regiment, or
general muster; and u fine Of one dol
lar is imposed for failing to attend either
Of these mustcrs or meetings for the
election Of officers. Gov. Wise, in his
recommendation on the subject, esti-
mates the men in the State, who would
be required to perform militia duty, as
numbering about 100000. The pro-
visions Of the bill are justly regarded
as about equivalent to lcyying q poll
tax of three dollars in time or money
on each citizen Of the commonwealth,
which would make an aggregate Of a.
bout 5000, O90 per annuln levied upon
the people, which sum would pay the
interest on tenmillions Of debt. | hope
it will be defeated"

The editor Of the Wheeling Times
learns that there is more prospect now
of an appropriation Of two millions to
the Covington and Ohio railroad, at
the present session, than he had been
led to suppose. The friends Of this
enterprise are wide awake & working.
They have, it is said, room splen-
dilly furnished, and supplied with the
best eating and drinking, and smoking;
where they resort, and invite friends
just as they arc able to convert them
to their views" = heard a report, n
few days since, to The effect that the
friends Of this railroad, who constitute
ut the present time about two.third5 Of
the internal Improvement party in the
Legislature had proposed to the anti
internal Improvement, that il they
would assist their work to two millions
Mt this session, they would unite with 10
them defeat all other appropriations"
If this appropriation is put through
this winter, it will probably be done by
lag rolling, and number Of minor i'm.
provement bills will be carried with it,
and our taxes increased right smartly.

Seward could never command the

ed President. That is vote also
which cannot be dragooncd into the
support Of any man, who does not give
native born Americans their just ghts
in tho distribution of Office, and who
does not discountenance the undue
preference shown by the sham Democ-
racy of the present day, to the foreign
over the native born. 1t may be as
well now, as when too late, to take
these things into consideration, if a
union of the opposition is desired,
and without such union, it must be
evident to any man Of ordinary polit.
lcal sagacity, the Loco Foco party can.
not he defeated. The Americans are
willing to libcralize their platform, so
as to meet the views Of all reasonable
men, but thoy will not consent to up
root its very fundamental principles.
Why cannot some acknowledged
statesman, representing fairly the es-
sencc Of the American and Republican
tenets, be selected as the standard
bearer ofthe opposton--a man whose
conservative views, high intellect, and
statesman superiority, commands the
confidence of all right thinking patri-
ots of the country? Such man was
Judge Mclean i'll the last canvass
lad he been nominated the Democrat
lcparty would have been routed, "horsc,

the Republicans here now admit was
fatal mistake. Equally fatal will be
the putting forward third-ratc man
in 1860, as Fremont, Bisscl, or Chase.
These things ought to DO thought OF
now, while there is n chance for delib.

The New Hall Of Congress.

The Washington Star, speaking Of
the new Hall Of Congress, pronounccs
it far superior to the old one. Itadds
thatthe amount ofactual business trans
acted therein, and the general desire
Of members TO push ahead, has really
astonishcd the veteran members Of the
press, sitting over the House, and, We
presume thereby, the rest of mankind.
Now, We doubt not the new Hall is re-
ally very fine room, and great
Improvement over the old one; but
that these facts arc the true cause of
the new order Of expcditing business,
we cannot believe. The secret lies in
the fact that the members arc now paid
$4,000 per year, instead of eight dol
lars per day. Therein, good star, IL
