TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE Z, 1859
THE ELECTION,

The election passed off yesterday very quietly, and
resulted trumphantly for the American ticket the
entire ticket being elected by large majority Of th
votes cast though the vote was smaller than usual.
As the votes will not be officially counted till to.
day, cannot give tables Of the figures; but, from
the tally lists made out by the Commissioners we
enabled to give general results and in some cases
the complete majorities.
Valery Duplessls, the American candidate for
Comptroller was elected over P. A. Guyol by q
majority of more than 1000.
For Aldermen the result was as follows: In the
First District, E. Cox. American, was elected over
VIM. Henderson by majority Of over 600 and one
poll yet to hear from. In the Second District, Nor
man Whitney was elected over W. A. Gordon by
majority of 1885, and three polls to hear from. In the
Third District, with two polls to hear from, s. p De
Labarre had majority Of 452 over James Phillips,
sr. In the Fourth District for which neither the
American or Independent party had any regular
nominations, Benjamin s. Harrison elected over
Messrs. Whitaker and James, the vote being as fol-
lows Harrison 31l, Whitaker l6l, and James 98.
All the American candidates for Assistant Alder

ST. LOUIS, June 6.--The Utah mail has arrived
here, bringing advices from Salt Lake City to the
Goth ult.
The bad feeling existing between the Mormons and
the United States troops was increasing and had as
sumed serious character.
The Mormons were organizing military companies,
and making preparations to resist the execution Of
the laws and the interference of the United States
troops.
The Mormons in different parts Of Utah have or
ganzed and sent to the vicinity Of Salt Lake City,
and numerous bands of armed Mormons were en-.
camped in the mountains surrounding the city.
Governor Cummings has issued proclamation or
dering the dispersion Of the Mormons who have been
associated together and organized in military capa.
city in the mountains encrcling Salt Lake City, and
it was anticipated that force would have to be en-
ployed in the execution of the order.
The overland California mail arrived on Saturday
night, bringing advces from San Francisco to the
18th ut which are four days later than our previous
advices.
The news from California is unimportant. Busi.
ness at San Francisco was good, and the markets
were generally unchanged.
Accounts from the mining districts are favorable.
The Indians along the route continue their depre-
dations, and small parties of emgrants are attacked
robbed and murdered.
A party of eight Americans, who were out on o
prospecting excursion near Honey lake, were at
tackled by the Indians and killed. The house of Col.
Stevenson, at Red Bluff was set on fire by the Indians
and entirely destroyed the 1lth of May The wife
Of Col. Stevenson, and another woman with five
children who in the house at the time persisted
in the flames, being prevented from escaping by the
Indians who surrounded the house.

The CosT OF FOREIGN TRAvEL.-We extract from
a volume just published, entitled From Wall Street
to Cashmere" by Mr. John B. Ireland, the following
information as to the expense of foreign travel 1t
will settle dispute in many mind in regard to
question SO nice yet SO important:
Travelling in England, with moderate speed, in
filstclass racarriages, coaching, or occasionally
posting, when in out'ofthe-way places, always put
ting up at the best hotels in London with rooms at
Longs and with meals there, or at the clubs, costs
about nine or ten dollars per day. This is an ave.
rage expense for gentleman to travel on and live
eo'aiortaby with reasonable quantity Of good wine
for dinner.
On the continent the same can be DONE including
the living in Paris or any other capital for S. per
day. at the hotel good lodgings and dining at the
bsst restaurants In Syria on the Nile if travel
ing alone, the expense would be about So per day. or
Il with one friend, about So so, and two or three,
from "a to s.. Usually every one travels there with
one or two friends. l always did, except the last
time, when went to Palmyra. Then beyond Suez,

ga SINGULAR PRopHEsY.-The following curious
paragraph is from the Cologne correspondent of the
Continental Review:
"We may now afford to smile at the singular pro,
phesy OF the Westphalian shepherd who lived some
hundred and fifty years ago, and who predicted
terrible European war, in the course of which the
Turks should cool the feet of their horses in the
Rhine" These thngs-thus runs the tradtion-were
to come to pass when carriages ran without horses
and the Prussan soldiers were dressed like the sol
diers who crucied Christ. Carriages do run without
horses, and the silhouette of Prussian soldier in his
tunic and helmet is in all respects that of Roman
legonary. But the superstitious who speculated on
the singular prophesy could never reconcile with it
the decline of the Turkish power and the manifest
improbability of the sultan's troops carrying the
standard of the Prophet to the banks of the Rhine.
They forget that France has Algerne regiments of
spahs and Zouaves and that many of them are as
good Mussumans as ever walked the streets of
Stamboul

FAST LIVING" Lord Byron" says Leigh Hunt
used to go about humming all the morning, and re-
served his serious work for the night" He said himself
in conversation with Lieut.. Medwyn, that he largely
used the inspiration of gin to keep up tired and
tagging nature. Schiller resemb!ed him in both
habits. What was the consequence? Byron died at
thIrty.sx. Schiller lived on to sixty, but with a
broken constitution and shattered energies. The fire
Of genius blazed with intense and waselul brillianey
in both but burned itself out. Night labor and
the inspiration of gin will make short work with the
most robust constitution

the Territory OF Arizona.

The correspondent of the st. Louis Republican
writes follows concerning the Territory Of Arizona
about which 80 much has been said within year or
two past:
This territory is collection Of rugged mountains,
rough hills, and sandy gulleys, with hard rocky
soil, upon which the rains of heaven rarely descend
me Gila is the most reliable stream in Arizona but
IN the summer time comes very near drying up. At
ordinary stages the river is from six inches to one
loot in depth, and from fifteen to twenty-five yards
wide. The water is clear, but strongly impregnated
with alkai-in some places to such an extent as to
render the water unfit for use. Between Fort Yuma
and point one hundred miles up the river, the only
arabic land is occupied by the Pimo villages.
AS you ascend the river, the bottoms are narrow
the soil light sandy, and covered with an almost i'm
papabe dust, which nearly chokes the traveller as be

THE SOUTH WIND.


Softer than down on the cygnet's breast
Isthe breeze that has swept DER the billows crest
And sought out the groves of this land so blest,
To daily while.
Capricious and light, it is breathing along;
First signing sadness the old trees among,
Then whispering the roses loves faithless song
Caressingly low.
Soft rattling the lattice, admittance to seek,
Half sportive, half tender, it fans the hot cheek,
Imparting an ecstacy words cannot speak,
.~5 - So balmy and fresh!
It brings the mind dreams of deep sea cave,
Which sparkling, pellucid, the blue waters lave,
And the white.drifted sands resplendently pave,
Gem-starred and pure.
