WASHINGTON, Tuesday evening. june 10.
The Administration fully conhdes in Governor
Cummirgs assurances Of peace IN Utaa. Eves
before his dispatch came, similar information wa'
received from the Indian Agent, Forney. but not
disclosed the Government preferriug to await con-
frmatOn.
Cumming is n man of deliberate judg nent and
determined courage, and not likely to be easily
juped by asytOdy and fully conscious of all his
present responsibilities. His private letters state
that the fact which most impressed him In Salt
Lake was the absence of all military preparation or
means for organized resistance. He felt satisfied
that Johnstons original force was more than sulh-
cent without re- endorsements to have conquered
the whole force which Brigham Young could mus
ter, such was his def ciency in warlike resources.
Accounts from the army represent great dssat-
isfacton existing at the prospect of probable
pacifcaticn, and the disappointment at losing
chance for campaign after the. Winters hardship
Johnston was opposed to Gov. Cummings ex-
pertinent of peaceful appeal, and declined any
countenancs to his entry into Salt Lake without
being attended by troops Cumming knew their
presence would lead to bloodshsd if it did not pro-
woke it by outrages, and hence he determined on
the cour,e which he pursued, against the advice OF
the army officers. This may explain the temper of
Johnston's dispatches.
1t is stated at the Treasury Department that
several Of Dillaye's friends in Congress called, be-
fore his dis placement, ard asked thst the charges
sgsinst d. be withdrawn, giving assurance at tho
same time, Of his resignation. Mr.. Cobb ans1ered
that he might resign, but as the charges coosa-
tuted part of the public records they must re-
main on file, where they are now visible. Hs also
stated that neither Sickles nor Hart had anything
~ do, directly or Indirectly with the change, aaa
that tie only conversation with the former on the
subject was long ago, when he suggested D.s re-
tenri0n.
Mr.. Mason attempted to pass his resolutions on
British outIsges to-day, rs mere expression oil
sentiment on the part Of thu Senate, but after sev
eral speeches, Mr. Toombs announced that be
would DEBATE and resist them. Hence the Sensto
went Into executive session, when the President
renou mated Vaudeville as Suryeyor-Genersl for
California, and Faue as Marshal Of Kansas who
were laid over yesterday.
The extraditon treaty with France was con-
frned, though after the vote it Mas fouud necessary
to cal in several Senator'S to complete a quorum.
Several Indian treaties made by Gov Stevens n
Oregon and Washington ale yet pending. Abo.
the treaty with the Dsc otahs.
WASHINGTON, Wednesday, June &C. 1853.
The news of the Mormon exodus confirms Gov
Cummings intelligence, and shows how imperfect
and unreliable are the Impressions current 10 tho
army. Col. Johnstons dispatch expressly says
tina; Brigham Young and followers had taken
military position, with view 10 hostile operations
while at the very time they were ieayiug the Terr'
tory by thousands.
The contractors will make desperate edor
now to establish Salt Lake as . grest military DE-
pot, with view to carrying forward the munitions
ard supplies needed for an active camp,ign.
this project be successful ths expenses would Do
Internationally reduced AZ between peace and wsl'
Interests, amounting to seyersl millions, arc o.
stake, and every appliance will be brought to bsaf
on the Department ard the Administration.

Col. Johnston's dispatch, though not credited u J"
infereDces, st checked the plane under conseef'
ton. The last news will revive them. Col JON.
