The Cincinnati 7imes mentions, as a fact.
that a very importan; political movement
has been going on for some time past, 10
withdraw Fremont from the canvass and
replace him by Gen. Butter. The 7imes
is of the opinion that Batter will prove to
be a far stronger candidate than Fremon.
with the radical Of the Republican party.
and that his candidaturc would seriously
cinbar.ass Mr.. Lincoln. This announce
in tent Of the Cincinnati Tines NAV account
fer the victory which Gen. Butler had
achieved over the Administration and Gene
rails Grant, Gilmore and Badly Smith
\ short time since ii will be remembered.
Gen. Grant finding that Batter was worse
than useless in the army, sent him TO Fort
ress Monroe. The subsequent disgrace of
Generals Smith and Gilmore, and the rein
statement of Gen. Butler at Bermuda Hun
drcd took everybody by surprise. But the
reason for the change is probably given in
this announcement by the western Repnb-
l'can press. Butler probably thr catcned to
run as a Presidential candidate in opposi-
ton to Lincoln if he was not re stored to his
former status in the army. Hence the
sending adriit Of two ! eo,r.pctent officers
like "Baldy' Smith and Gilmore, and the
placing Of Butler in a posit,o n for which his
education and military ca recr prove him to
be suprcmcly unity. Y. World.

AN INDIAN SALrED Down THE Virgin
ia .Lnion tells Of the following singular dis
covcry in Nevada: 1--WE learn from the
drivers of several Mormon teams which ar
rived here Yesterday from Salt Lake, bring
ing with them loads Of salt from the i'm
meise fields near Sand Spring, about eighty
miles from this city, that the remains Of an
Indian have been there completely embed
ded in rock salt, four feet below the surface.
The body was in a state Of complete preser-
walton, and from appearance had lain in the
same position for many years, or perhaps
for ages. The flesh was perfectly dry, like
that. of a mummy, and it was evident that
it had been perfectly saturated with brine,
which prevented its decay. The Indian
was about the usual size, and resembled the
Piutes that now inhahit the same locality.
Part of a bear skin and a rude bow were
found near by inc at a distance of several
yards, a pair of elk-horns of enormous size
were dislnterred.
The ~supposition is that this entire salt
bed was once a lake, and that the animal that
had been wounded had taken refuge in the
water. whittier he was followed by the Indi-
an, who sank in the mud ut the bottom and
was unable to extricatc himself, and thus
persisted. The body was in a sitting post
IRE, and the presence of the weapons and
the proximity Of the remains Of an elk,
point to this conclusion. \ number Of
piutcs who were present when the body
was taken out, viewed it with mysterious
awe, based no doubt, upon some supersti-
ton, and they could not be made to APP
proach it. They seemed to be aware that it
must have been buried where it was found
for a great length of time, as these salt beds
have been dry ami hard from time immemo-
rial with them and the life like appearance
Of the corpse, as it was taken out, had, in
their minds, something in it akin to the SUI
pcrnatural.
