The SALE OF SONORA DENIED Flashing
ton, June 23.-Senor Robles, the Mexican
Minister, has authorized an emphatic denial
of the recently published statement of the
sale or cession to French company, of a
large portion of Sonora. He says all DEGREES
issued by the Mexican government making
grants for colonization or other purposes have
been officially published; that there is not a
single instance of grant which was not fol-
lowed by an authentic announcement of the
fact; that there is none in this case, and that
without such publication no grant or cession
is of legal effect.

The special Utah correspondent of the New
York Tribune doubts the sincerity of Brigham
Young in his dealing with Gov. Cumming.
Writing from Fort Bridger, under date of
May %, the correspondent says;
| might mention a hundred circumstances
which indicate how hypocritical will be
Youngs position if he shall accept the Pres
idents offer and submit. On Sunday May
2, as you are already aware by your Utah
correspondence, Gov. Cumming, accompan-
led by Col. Kane and Brigham Young,
made his appearance on the stage of the
Mormon Tabernacle in Salt Lake City,
and delivered an address to the audience,
in which lie said he was glad to meet them,
&c. In the afternoon, when Cumming was
not present, Young made harangue, in the
course of which he said, q on heard what
Cumming said to you this morning. 1
thought then that he was liar. l tell you
now that he is damned liar Two per-
sons who were present on the occasion have
waited on me today, and have offered to
make oath that this language was used by
Young, and that they heard it. l will not
continue the catalogue, but am in possess
sion of indisputable proof of other gross in
suits offered to the Governor, behind his
back, during and after his tour with Col.
Kane.
