Indian Peace Commissioners.

We observe in several Eastern papers
the idea advanced that government will be
likely to send peace commission in this
direction, to adjust the present difficulties
with the hostile tribes of the ntcrior-that
the President and cabinet are favorably in
elined to such course, &c., &c. This idea
was no doubt suggested to the press at the
East, because Of the sending, by govern
msnt, Of such commission to Utah In
relation to the Indian tribes with whom
the United States is now at war, we learn
that no such policy will be pursued. Upon
this subject, Gov STEVENS, writing to us
under date Of August 4th, says:
al write to assure you that it 1.-THE idea of peace
commissionl meets not with the slightest favor from
any one in authority here. On the contrary, know
directly from the President and Secretary Of War,
that it is the fixed determination to crush ont the war
and that every exerton is being made to concentrate
large force at the Walla-walla. The 9Th regiment
Of Infantry is now On its march from Utah in that di
rection and il is highly probable that some additional
companies Of dragons will also he dispatched from
Utah. Gen. LANE and myself had full conference
with the Secretary Of War this morning, and am
thus able to speak positively"
Since the commencement of recent hos
tilties, and the defeat Of Col SteptOe's
command, we have never entertained fear
that it was the purpose Of government TO
pursue half-lOay measures in bringing the
Indian war to close. The government
has entered upon the work Of subjugation
in earnest this time and we do not be-
lieve that the force now in the field, or un-
der orders for the hostile Indian country,
will be diverted, but may be augmented by
an additional force. Government seems to
have got the wool" out of eyes entirely,
concerning the Indian tribes in this direc-
ton.

To THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES:
The Queen desires to congratulate the President
upon the successful completion Of this great nterna.
tonal work, in which the Queen has taken the deep
est interest.
The Queen is convinced that the President will join
with her in ervently hoping that the electric cable
which now connects Great Britain with the United
States will prove an additional link between the ma.
tions, whose friendship is founded upon their common
interest and reciprocal esteem.
The Queen has much pleasure in thus communica.
ting with the President, and renewing to him her
wishes for the prosperity Of the United States.

Besides these greetings between the Queen and
President, message Of congratulation was transmit
ted on Monday aftenoon from the directors Of the
Atlantic Telegraph Company at London to the hon
orATy directors Of the same at New York.
Thus, as we have said, the great problem Of the
age is now fully and fayorably solved. The Atlantic
Telegraph Is in operation. London and New York

ay The Editor of the "Mountaincer'' i

AS lnc Edllor OF INC n1OuHlalncer ID
the last number of his paper, endeavors
to explain his SILLY shaUyiny course with
regard to the Kansas Compromise bill.
Philip states that when he declared the bill a
bribe-iuGnitely worse than the original
proposition-he had never read it. A rather
humiliating acknowledgement, we think lie
should be careful in future not to express an
opinion on subject about which he knows
nothing. Wen wager shilling lie never
read the Lecompton Constitution His views
with regard to it are doubtless based on what
he has gathered from the speeches of Stephen
\. Douglas and the editorials in the Phila-
Gel phia Press" and New York Tribune >"
Perhaps if he would give the document a
careful perusal he would soon discover that
it is not such fraud and swiudle after all
But how are sc hereafter to understand the
EiitOr of the ''MOuntaincer One week he
pronOunccs the English Compromise Bill a
fraud. d bribe, a swinde; the next it is a
Wise and patriotic measure, calculated to re-
store harmony to the country. This reminds
US forcitly of the chorus Of the old song
Il turn about and wheel about and DO Just So.
And every time turn about jump Jim Grow. -
Bu; it may be that the "Mountaincer" was
established merely as 8 sort Of political wealth
crcock, to show the people of Cambria which
way the wind blows. Philip asserted some
time ago that his paper was free MS the
mountain breeze" and doubtless it is, for it
has been so free as to advocate both sides Of
a question in the short space of two weeks;

Wooden spoons and earthcn Gishes

Come, Philip, this special pleading won't

knowledge that you were induced to change
your position on the Kansos question in
consequence of having made the important
disco very that the Democracy Of Cambria are
not made of Transferable material, and are de-
termined to stand by their principles aud the
President Of their choice. You discovered
that more than seven htLs of the Democ-
cacy Of Cambria were opposed to any union
with the Black Republicans, and in favor of
the admission Of Kansas into tie Union un-
der the Lccompton Constitution. Having as
sisted in sowing the wind, you were afraid to
breast the whirlwind We would advise you
hereafter, before hazarding an opinion with
regard to the me rits of u document, to honor
it with at least hasty pcrusal. And with
this friendly admonition We will, for the pres
ent, leave you alone in your glory.

DODGIMG.

The Editor of the ''Mountainecr' says he
is heartily sick of the Kansas controversy.
Doubtless this is true, and the majority of
the "tj-Lceompfoaites are disposed to say
Amen to this pious ejaculation. Their factious
., posi ion TO he Nati, nal administration has
proved abortive Mr. Buchanan has been
triumphantly sustained by Congress and the
Democratic party. If the clique who con-
troll the Mountaineer" had triumphed they
would not have been quite so sick of the
Kansas controversy, nor desired SO soon that
the past should be in ''thc deep bosom of the
Ocean buried" Finding that they have got
themselves into "split stick" they are now
eudcavoripg not only to sneak back into the
Democratic ranks, but have already set them
selves up the leaders and guardians of the
party. This We think is rather fast. The
Democrats who made common cause with
Know Nothiugs and Black Republicans N
the most trying crisis through which the
Democratic party ever passed, when its de-
struction seemed almost inevitable, cannot
and will not command the confidence of the
party in the present campaign at least.
