THE NEW TERRITORIES AND THE SLAVERY PRovIso
The slavery proviso, enormously stated in to.
days papers, which the Territorial Committee Of
the House propose to append to tho FIVE Terrific.
rial bills. is as follows:
Provided that, whereas slavery has no legal ex-
istence in said Territory, nothing herein contain
ed shall be construed to authorize or permit its
existence therin.
This provso is so ingenously drawn that the
republicans and anti-Lecompton democrats can
both vote for it. They ngrce upon the declaration
that slavery has no legal existence in any Terri
tory by virtue of the constitution.

General Scott arrived here today and had
m interview with the President and Secretary of

MORE TROUBLE WITH THE MoRNoNs.
Gov. Cumming has informed the Preslnet That
Utah is in q condition bordering on anarchy, and
some action is therefore necessary on the part
the government to relieve the Territory from pre-
sent and impending evils. He nlludes to the
bands of desperadoes whose conduct renders the
tenure of life and property uncertain, and requests
either that the judges will be sent out in place
of those who have deserted Utah, or authorize
the Probate Courts to exercise the powers claimed
by them and granted by the Legislative As.
seDbly, or adopt some other means Of safety
He requests that five hundred soldiers be retained
there, us the withdrawal of the entire army
would be iniudicious and unjust. Governor Cum
ming states the population Of Utah ut $1,000 or
$4,000, though it is larger estimated by the Nor
mons. =
