UrAH.-Recent advces from Utah show that
the much landed pacifcation in that territory
is of rather precarious character. In the
absence of Chief-Justice EckeIs, his mantle
appears to have fallen upon Justices Cradle
baugh and Sinclair, who are engaged in a vio-
lent struggle with Gov Cumming for the con-
troll of affairs. Gov. Cumming still adheres
to his policy of avoiding any violent collision
with the religious fanaticism of the Mormons,
by overlooking the past and combining his at
tention to the present and future. The two
Judges, on the other hand, seem determined
to rip up certain old transactions, and to COM
pei the Mormons either to allow a number Of
their leaders to he hung, or, what apparently
would suit certain persons better, to bring on
by this means collision between them and
the troops. In pursuance with this policy,
Judge Cradlebaugh, upon going to Provo to
hold court, caused himself 10 be attended by a
company Of soldiers, by whom the court house
was occupied. Against this procedure the au-
thorfties of Provo demonstrated, and when
Gov Cumming requested Gen. Johnston to
withdraw the troops from Provo, Instead of do
ing SO, he sent force of thousand men to
sustain them. This has had the effect of pro-
ducing great. alarm throughout the Territory.

And my heart was from care and SORROW free.

Conquest OF Thought.
Summer has come with its leaves and flowers,
With It's sunny skies and tie melting showers.
IT'S summers day; shower has just re-
freshed the earth. Even now the thunder rum
bles mid the distant hills. In front of the
window from which am gazing stands rose
bush, its blossoms pertaining the air, and bloom
ing in all their summer glory. How many re-
collections are brought to mind BY this simple
plant! Visions of childhood float before my
eyes-ts pleasures, its little griefs, its sad in
nocence. But, alas the thorns Of time have
pierced me, driven away these childish feelings,
and left in the wounds the selfish. heartless
thoughts of womanhood. Beyond the rose lies
the grass. The raindrops on the bosom Of each
blade look like 20 many diamonds in settings
Of green. Again my mind wanders and l
dream Of the old homestead, Of the gentle
father and loving mother who were wont 70 c..
ress me, but now lie clasped in the chilly en-.
brace of death, beneath the green turf Of the
village churchyard. Farther in the background
the beauteous rainbow spans the heavens but
as gaze it vanishes into air, reminding me Of
the promises of hollow.hearted friends, which
are made Of nothing but the sunshine of a mo-
ment, beaming on the tear bedimned eyes Of
hope, and which are forgotten ~ soon as made.
But, beyond al. lies . range of hills. On their
heads hang misty crown their feet bathed by
the waters Of the Mississippi and robed in the
green verdure Of the valley, leading my
thoughts above them, up through the sky to
that region where shall be crowned with etcr.
nal glory, and lave my feet in the river Of life.
