Military Posts.

IL the Mormons have left Salt Lake and
suceumbed to the powers Of U Uncle Sam and
1t seems to be pretty we'll established fact
that they haye--we have good reason for
supposing that serious troubles with the
Saints will have an end from this time forth.
However, now that the Government forces
are in full command Of Salt Lake City, it will
doubtless be deemed advisable to establish
there, or in that immediate neighbOrh ood. a
military station, garrisoned by sufficient
number Of men to hold the Mormons and
Indians in check. A strong, we'll appointed
garrison at Salt Lake, provided with all mu-
nitions of war, would be the grand centering
point from which supplies could always be
derived for the support and reinforcement of
ether posts proposed to be located along the
main road Of travel between California and
Fort Laramie.
SupposlDg that the Mormons will return
to their Holy City, and many Of them doubt
less will. 1t strikes US that the government
would be relnquishing highly important
and advantageous point to withdraw all her
forces thence. The presence of garrison
in or near Salt Lake City would work no op-
preston or injustice to the Mormons, and
coul be made ofgreat service to travellers tod

Senator Douglass on the Aegression,

Senator Douglass on the Aggressions
On Saturday last, Senator Douglas adj
dressed the Senate upon the report of The
Committee Of Foreign Affairs. The tel.
.egraPh gives This synopsis Of his speech
Mr.. Douglas asked what good does il
DO to resolve that ihissearch is a belize.
rent act. The American people and
England know that il is. England was
informed Of it forty years ago, and has
violated our rights thirty.lhree times
within the past few weeks. He commen.
ded and admired the promptness with
which The President had sent force to
the Gulf, but that force is only up to the
poin! of preventing it. Do you suppose
we will ever find an opportunity 10 pre-.
vent search, unless ship Of war be sent
to accompany every merchant vessel D
The Senator from New York (Mr. Sew
ard) was wrong in saying that force
could sink the British in the Gulf. The
British have there three guns to our one;
tits brave, at least, to think, that our one
will sink their three. Mr.. Douglass re-
commended another course. Let ship
Of war, say the Wabash, get on the track
ofthe Styx or Buzzard, follow her up,
and bring her into an American port, and
twill then be time TO make explanations.
If England avows her cruizers' acl, it be.
comes an international question if she
disavows their acts, il only remains for
US TO say what punishment we shall in
fict upon those lawless persons who per-
petrated those outrages. The President
having gone as far as he can go, let him
have atonce such powers as are necessary
oprotect our flag, and maintain The rights
OF our citizens at home and abroad. He
had no fear Of abuse of such power by the
present Executive or any that may follow
him. The President is almost powerless
abroad. Every other Chief Magirtrale
has power not only 10 repel but to punish
outrages on their nationality and why
should not the Chief Magistrate of this
Republic have power, ample and full, in
aid Of our flag, instead Of apprehension
that the power will be abused! Mr..
Douglas only feared that it would not be
exercised often enough. We cannot pro.
tect commerce on the Gulf and the CARR
bean Sea without power in the Executive
to punish promptly. The British name
is respected and ours is despised among
the Spanish American portion of the con.
tinent, because the British take instant
reparation; whereas the Mexican and
other weak Republics know, that in the
delay Of negotiations reparation is lost
Mr.. Douglas holds therefore, as a genera
policy, to keep the President clothed witf
power to protect citizens outside of the
United States by summary process
without going through this formula o
resolutions that the aggressors must no
do il again. He was in hopes that there
would have been no speeches, but tha
the bill would have passed unanimously
without word. which expression woult
have carried more force than army o.
navy.
