The cost of the Utah Expedition begins to
loom up in official figures. The Washington
Constitution has published tabular statement
Of the expenses to the end of the second quar-
ter of 1858, taken from the Quarter Masters
office, authentic as far as it goes. They add
up to the considerable sum OF So, 1872 7S9 The
cost since must be at least two or three mil
lions more, making the aggregate expenditure
up to the end of the fiscal year, which termi
mates in June, between seven and nine millions.
The whole campaign has been d cha ter of
blunders. Federal authority is no better estab

Tornadoes in the West.

Another is to be added to the terrific and
devastating whirlwinds which have recently
swept over portions of Iowa and Illinois. 1t
occurred short distance from Pekin, in mid
die Illinois, May Goth, and all the buildings,
fences, Dc, on two farms were entirely de-
stroyod, the loss of property on one of them be-
ing estimated at So OOO Much other damage
was done in its track, but no loss of life is re-
ported
The whirlwind near Iowa City is described
as appearing like a huge wSter-spout reaching
from the cloud to the earth, swaying to and
fro like a rope in the wind 1t remained in
sight nearly fifteen minutes. The tornado near
Jacksonville began in appearance about the
size of mans hand. 1t first looked like a
fountain boiling over, then rapidly grew in size
throwing small cloud like folds from the clouds
to the earth, increasing in width and violence
as it approached the ground. Sad havoc was
made, as appears by the following particulars !:

Ma. EDiToR--I would like to say q word to
our delegates to our State Conventon--and
know Of no better way than through the Lead
er:-
Gentleman Delegates; believe that we often
fail in obtaining support of our principles at
the ballotbox, by our temporizing pOicy-we
don't always define our position. believe
that had Henry Clay, in bis letter Of accept
ance Of the nomination for President come out
decided against annexation and war with @e1i-
co he would have won. There was no issue
between the parties aud it made little difference
for which candidate a man voted, if the admin
istration of either would be the same-and this
was the opinion Of the people as made up from
the platforms. My attention has been called TO
this subject by hearing some Of our good (i)
leaders on the Reserve say: "Well, we can't
probably carry strong resolutions through the
convention, for our friends in the south part OF
the State are not prepared for them, and it is
best not to present resolutions that will scare
them"
My opinion is that the frank and file" Of
our party in the south part Of the State will 60
as far as their leaders dare CO. aud will support
any amount of opposition to the Fugitive Slave
law, or TO the extension of Slave Territory, OF
20 the encroachments of the Federal Govern
ment on the rights of the States as guaranteed
| by the Constitution.
! Nv reasons Tor my opinion are-that / have
great faith in humanity, and believe the people
will support the right The attempt of the ad-
minisuation to propagate slavery and submis-
sion te all the demands of shareholders is so
bare-iaced that the people see It, and the evi-
dence that the Democratic party is committed,
wholly, to the extension of slavery in the Ter
ritories, and the Capitalization of all polOer in
the general government, through the judiciary,
is so palpable that the people are ready to as
sert their rights, and the rights of the States,
and maintain them. The opposition have Civ
| On us capital to work WITH and it cannot be that
the citizens of any part of this State are will
| ing to yield to the encrOacbments now being
forced upon them, by the Administration, and
risk the maledictions of their posterity when
the next step is taken to curtail THEN rights, for
having made such a cowardly precedent. No,
| gentlemen-youl may find a few would be-"
| leaders, who have an eye to the "hesh pots, "
who will shake in their boots for fear their
heads may be pecked-but the great majority of
lilt ptuplc VIII ulNbbbhtH iaohc1
as the sons of our revolutionary fathers should
meet them. Then gentlemen, give us an issue
give us platform on which to stand equal to
the crisis. so that when we go into action with
the enemy's vessels, we shall have a deck of
our own to stand on-and not a myth of a
flung DutchmaR' let HS know l0here we
stand, and when our enemies ask the people the
difference between the parties, let us be able to
show true cOlOrS and never run.

The other prominent plauks Of the platform
laid down for the party by the Democratic
Slave Traders, was the annexation of Cuba and
Genital America, aud the secession of the slave
States should a Republican President be elect
ed in 1860. The Convention adopted other
resolutions relating TO a direct trade with Eu
rope, tho Southern Pacific Railroad, and the
deepening Of the mouth of the Mississippi, for
the purpose of keeping up the sham CONNER
cia character of the convocation.
The ultra sentiment on the subject of the
African Slave Trade represented in the Vicks
burg Convention is formidable and probably
dominant in the Southern States. 1t is domi-
nant in the Buchanan administration, for the
laws for the suppression Of the African traffic
in negroes are so feebly executed by the Fed
eral officers under the direction OF the President,
as to 5e entirely powerless Indeed the organ
of the President virtually tells the nation that
il is not worth while to attempt to enforce the
laws against the importation of Africans, where
those enactments are so unpopular as they are
at Savannah and Charleston Attorney Cen
eral Black so prompt aud so potent to enforce
the Fugitive Law in Ohio, winks at defiance OF
the law to punish piracy in Carolina and
Georgia, and man-stealers by the cargo are
suffered to pursue UNPUBLISHED trade outlawed

North are fined and imprisoned by Govern
ment Pursuers with the ferocity of blood
