AMERICAN AND BnrrIsu CRuIsERs.--Seyeral
American and English vessels Of war, were in
HAVANA harbor, On the 9th inst. The Amer
lean vessels had offered to convoy and protect
American merchant vessels from search
Commanders Rogers and Amy have had in
tervicws with several officers of the British
vessels Of war, with the Consul General of
England, and very gentle imitation has been
given of the purpose Of their visit in these
waters. 'to stop the visiting and searching of
vessels under the flag of the United States, by
British cruisers" Various excuses have been
made for the past-with promises Of better
behavior in future, as usual--ss that we wait
TO see if the Old Lion will again show his
claws. @
The war steamers Devastation and Jasper,
have been here for short visit to communi-
cate with the British Consulate and have hur-
ried of to give new instructions to the small
cruisers. Friendly intercourse existed be-
tween the commanders Of the american YES
sells and the English officers, and they were
seen daily riding out together and exchanging
the most friendly courtesies.

examination made of them.
Let Us, in our imagination, take a view Of
this place twenty five years hence. The great
Central Pacific Railroad, cutting through the
Rocky Mountains at the South Pass, and con-
Meeting the Pacific coast with the Atlantic
shores, will stretch itself beside these springs
. great city will surround them, teeming with
Inhabitants and visiters from every part of the
civilized world. Il will be the watering place
OF America, and perhaps of Christendom. What
fashionable resort in the States can boast the
numbers or the variety of these springs, or the
quantity of water discharged by them . What
is the Harrodsburgh or Saratoga Springs, when
compared with the Soda Springs of Bear River
valley, in Utah Territory Again, the nsgnif.
cent mountain scenery surrounding this highly
interesting spot, in connection with the pure air
and healthful breezss that ever fan those roman
tic regions, all conspire to make il a place of
immense interest. jE i
The Government ought to make a reserve of
twenty miles square, including those treas.
ures of health and soealth, as they are of too
much public or general importance to fall into
the hands OF any one man, or company Of spec
ulators. This place win soon be seized upon
by some person or persons, who will attempt to
,, turn it to private instead of to public benefit

THE SODA SPRINGS, UTAH TERRITORY.

AS the traveller descends the valley of Bear
river, which at this point is some three or
four miles wide, be sees, at the distance of
mile or two ahead, two white or ash colored
mounds, perhaps % or 80 feet in height, by one
hundred feet in diameter at the base. From
the top of these mounds issue the celebrated
" Soda Springs" The mounds have unques-
tionably been formed by the action of the water,
which escapes from the surface with Kissing
noise, reminding one of the Kissing from the
boilers of steamboat. Immediately around
the ori6ce from which the water issues, is form.
ed rim, or basin, rising some eighteen inches
or two feet in height, and about the same in
diameter, looking something like -four bar.
rel in the distance.
The water is slightly warm, and strongly i'm
pregnated with mineral substances-so much 40.
that it is said to effervesce when mingled with
acid. The streams are strong-runuing down
in bold, clear rivulets. In the immediate vicin.
ity of these, are many more springs, of almost
every variety Of taste and type of mineral sub
stances, and of greater or less magnitude in
the qusntity of water discharged. "a
Advancing on the emigrant road, at the dis
lance of threefourths of mile, the traveller
crosses clear, bold mountain stream of fresh
water, perhaps FIVE feet wide and six inches
deep. After crossing this, numerous mineral
springs are passed. both on the right and the left
A half mile further on, at the distance of two
hundred yards to the left of the road, on the
bank Of the Bear river, is the noted Steam
boat Spring." so called from the noise it pro-
duces. The water is thrown from the surface
of fattopped rock into the air some three feet.
The jet is of the thickness of mans arm, or
some three inches in diameter. The water is
mineral, and of the the temperature of about
one hundred degrees. The roaring noise of this
spring can be easily heard onefourth of a mile.
At q distance of seven or eight miles from this,
at the base OF mountain, on the right hand of
the Oregon road, 1.-THE Salt Lake and California
route having diverged to the left, is situated
what is called the Beer Spring. A basin or

THE ERA FOUR MONTHS FOR FIFTY CENTS.

We have not heretofore encouraged subscrip-
tons to the Era for less than year, but the
state of political affairs which for the next few
months promises to be of peculiar interest to
every friend of Freedom, and the hope of
greatly enlarging the Era's circle of readers,
that the people may be prepared to vote under
standingly at the approaching fall elections for
the men who are to represent them in the next
Congress, induce us to offer the Era on the
following terms
Ten copies for four months, beginning March
lst, flee dollars, in adUanee.
This will afford an opportunity to our friends
to give the Era wide circulation, and also
enable those subscribers who have been com.
PEELED to discontinue their subscriptions on &C.
count of the hard times" to continue at a
small advance of money.
We accompany this offer with the expression
Of our earnest hope that, where it is practica-
bic, subscriptions will be sent in for year.

In the Senate, Mr.. Green, of Missouri, made
a speech in favor of the Lecompton bin. Mr..
Crittenden followed in reply to Mr.. Green.
In the House, Mr.. Kellogg, of Illinois, con-
cluded an able speech against the Kansas bill,
the House being in Committee of the Whole on
the state of the Union. Mr.. Singleton, of Mis-
sissippi, followed, upon the other side of the
question; when he was through, Mr.. Howard,
of Michigan, obtained the floor, and made a
clear and logical argument against the Lecomp-
ton bill. Mr.. Bennett, of Kentucky, then ar
gued for an hour in favor of the passage of the
bill.

THE TIME FOB ACTION APPROACHING.

At an early hour Monday evening, the gal.
leries and Senate chamber and all the avenues
leading to them were crowded to overlooking
with persons anxious to hear the speech of Mr..
Douglas, who had the floor at seven o'clock.
On his appearance, short time before the
On tuU session, he was greeted with
loud applause. He had been suffering from
sickness, and some doubted whether he would
have strength to go through with his speech
but he occupied the floor from seven to eleven,
speaking with great energy and effect. he
reviewed and INDICATED his course; denounced
the action of the Administration and its SUD-
porters In Kansas, as preventing the operation
and thwarting the purpose of the Kansas Ne
braska act; announced that he had no con.
cessions, no explanations, no qualifications TO
make; denied the dogma preached in the South,
that under the Constitution, and in virtue of it,
Slavery goes wherever that goes; and rebuked
