city yesterday morning. ahead of contract
time
1t brings intelligence of further dissen-
sions in Utah, and serious outbreak seems
iueviEable.
The Hdley Tan. of the 18th ult., de-
nounces the position of Gov Cumming. and
sustains- Judge -CFadlebaugh. It says -
ut is clear to our mind that the Judges
have taken the proper course, and that Cum
ming is wrong. It is our firm conviction
that if the Judges are not sustained. and if
the army is moved, We may bid adieu to all
safety or protection of life or property for
American citizens"
The mountain streams were all very high.
The South Platte had spread over the val
lev in its course to the Bluffs.
We make the following extract from the
coulmns of the Valley Tan, respecting
the diffculties:-
1.-The q. s. District Court at Provo has
adjourned. and we are again forcibly re-
minded from the circumstances connected
with its recent session, that all attempts to
administer impartially, the laws OF our
country or even the statutes of the Terri
tory, in this community, by Federal officers,
are vain and futile. The Mormons are de-
termined to submit to church authority
only"
A party of Pawnees robbed party OF
Cheyenes, camped near Cottonwood Springs,
of some thirty horses. A company OF
Cheyenne braves pursued them. and over
took them near Cold Water Springs, when
battle ensued, in which the Cheyenes
were victorious, re-taking their horses and
killing eleven of the Pawnees. Four OF the
Cheyenes were dangerously wounded. They
returned to their camp, and as the mail lett,
were making preparations to have gtano
dance over their victory.
Mr.. Tracy, the company's agent in this
city, received letter from ]. E. Browniey,
the route agent, dated at Louisa, station
near Cottonwood Springs, eighty miles west
of Fort Kearney. The letter states that
Pixies Peak is humbug, and that the four
stations west of there are full of returning
miners. They have no money or proVis-
ions, and are literally starving. There are
no provisions in the country but those be-
longing to the mail company, the traders In
InaC region having none, ANU scores huet
literally perish of starvetion. There have
been no depredations committed yet, but the
employers of the company are constantly ex-
pecting some violence. The writer says the
provisions of the company must soon be
exhausted, but that he cannot see men die
on the prairies while there is anything to
eat. He closes by stating that as he writes
the wagon and blacksmith shop at the sta
ton is crowded with returning Pixies Peak
ers, and asks the company to do something
to place the facts before the public, so as to
avoid the suffering and misery that must
inevitably ensue. His letter we consider
one of the most reliable we have seen re-
specting the gold region, and it gives the
most gloomy account of affairs connected
with the mines.
By the Territorial Enterprise. published
at Carson Valley. U. t., of the Cd ult, We
learn that the miners in that region are do
ing we'll Many are making from So, 90 to
$1,000 per day. The Enterprise endorses
the statement of the Valley Tan, that the
Salt Lake Mail Route is the shortest, best
and most practicable route to California and
| the Pacific States.
