LEAyENwoRru, KANSAS, October 49,
The Denver Ne~s publishes the following
extract from a private letter to Captain
Cochran:
1--WE learn that Mr. Weston, editor of
the Salt Lake Union Tedete, was taken by
the Mormons, on the night of the Sd instant,
and severely beaten, and given six hours
to leave the city and take with him several
prominent Gentilcs Mr. Weston refuses to
leave, and denounces Mormonism in the
bittcrest terms. From the frequent oc-
currencc of outrages by the Mormons on the
Gentiles, serious trouble may be looked
for.
Letters from Puebla to Denver apply for
arms and ammunition for protection against
the Ute Indians, who are reported to have
killed fifteen persons and made prisoners
of one family.

Secretary Stanton.

A despatch was sent from Washington
to the Philadelphia Inquirer, on Tuesday
night o. last week, stating, "upon high
authority, that Hon Edwin NJ. Stanton
has. in writing, requested the President to
relieve him of his position as Secretary of
War, and that MIR. Stanton will be sent to
Spain as Midister of the United States, in
place of Mr. Hale"
In reply to which the National Intelli-
genccr OF Saturday says" When YOU are
informed that the whole of the above state
ment in reference to Mr.. Stanton is pure
fabrication. and that no such arrangement
has ever been suggested or invited by him,
and that the theory Of his resigning his
seat in the Cabinet is at war with his own
repeated declarations and intentions. YOU
may wonder what sort of spirit it is that
puts In circulation such charges against a
statesman whose entire career has been
one unselfsh and heroic tribute to his
country"

mentous matter from your great leader
Really, this is 1.-THE most unkindest cut
of ALL" 'Et tn Brute? ' Wilson. the
Senator from patriotic Massachusetts,,
knew the President was false, and hid
it" from Phillips! Oh!
Now comes Mr.. Phillips knock down
and-drag-out argument. He said, "his
theory was that there is no President. He
lis deserter. The legislative power is
the only power felt. Our James II. has
abdicated, and Parliament rules the ma
ton. He wanted Congress to commence
its next session as perpetual one. Every
moment that it was not in session the
South was ruling the government, and he
would have the next Congress enact that
they should reassemble in March, 1867,
and be themselves the government"
In conclusion he said: Five years ago
we had man in the White House, who
called himself public functionary,"
who has been engaged in the last year in
explaining why his treason did not sue
coed. Do your duty. We have got a
traitor in the White House who calls him.
self ''an humble individual" Do your
duty, and he will be explaining five years
hence why he did not succeed"
We have been thus particular in giving
material points in the lecture of this kna-
wish demagogue and acknowledged leader
of the radical party, in order that our rea-
ders may see the legitimate and inevitable
tendency Of the measures which he pro-
poses Congress shall adopt at its next ses
sion. He would destroy the Executive
branch of the Government. and have Con-
gress to usurp all the powers of both the
Federal and the States governments, ana
rule and ruin, until the whole country
shall be convulsed with civil war and
drenched in blood And the revolutiona-
ry schemes of this traitor and blasphemer
are applauded by an enlightened audi
ence.

The Submission of the South.

Mr.. Lincoln once declared that he fear
ed, after the war was over, that Congress
would have to take action to compel the
Southern people to send representatives to
that body. How little did he foresee what
has been the actual result Instead of Con
gress taking action to compel the South
ern people to send representatives. it has
done nothing but take action to keep out
those whom they sent. Instead of coun-
tumacious spirit on the part of the South
there has been the most entire and univer-
sal submission to the authority of the Gov
eminent, and the most cheerful readiness
to receive every proposition which the Gov
ernment might make /; the ratification of
the abolition Of their slave property, in
volving the sacrifice Of four thousand mill
ions Of dollars; the reputation of the Con-
federate war debt; the acknowledgement of
the supremacy of the United States, and
Of the indissouble character Of the Ameri-
can Union; the enactment of laws to pro-
tect the rights Of every citizen, whether
white or black. History affords 40 par
allel to the entire submission If rhe South
ern people to the results OF the war, and
yet whilst cheerfuly paying out their I'M
poverlshed fortunes heavy taxation, they
are denied ali representation, denounced as
malignant Rebels, threatened that. if they
do not sustain the Constitutional Amend
nent, the widest vengeance of Radcalism
shall be let loose upon them, and told that

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19.-The State De-
partnent has received a communication
from our consul at Guaymas, dated Sep
TENDER 11th, stating that the evacuation
of that port and (Sonora) by the French
squadron will take place on the 18th of
September. He was officially informed of
this fact by the Admiral in command. The
preparations for embarkation, which have
been going on for few days, and the fact
of the withdrawal of these forces, have
created panic among the population, both
native and forci gn, and in consequence the
steamer which leaves on the 18th for Ma
zatlan and San Francisco would be crowd
ed beyond her capacity
The merchants and respectable families
not compromised in the political difficult
ties, experimenting damage from the lower
classes during the interim Of the withdraw
al of the French troops and the entering
of the Liberal forces, have sought the pro-
lection of the United States consul, who
has addressed letter to Governor Pes
guerra, chief of the Liberal forces of the
State, with an appeal to his generosity in
behalf of those who are threatened with
ruin, and who aFe now preparing to fee

quoting apprehensions
The State Department has also COM
munication from our consul at Peru, in
forming the Government that native Chi
liam, resident in Lima, has left for the u
nited States with the object of contracting
for two thousand families of negroes for
that country. This speculation is under
the color of free colonization, but in fact
the negroes are to be stolen in the same
manner as the Chinese coolies, for the term
of eight years. The State department. is
sues circular to the Governors Of the sew
eral States suggesting all legal and moral
means to prevent the contamination of such
wrong.
A delegation from North Carolina and
Virginia called on the Commissioner of
Internal Revenue this morning with view
to having change made in the regula-
tions issued by that officer governing the
shipment of cotton.

The Terrible Explosion in st. Louis.

ST. LOUIS, Oct 19.-The terrific boiler
explosion here yesterday morning, at the
wood-turning factory of Van Brock, on
Franklin avenue, destroyed the factory and
an adjacent two-story dwelling. The ex-
plosion shook the buildings in the vicinity
for the distance Of several squares like an
earthquake, and the atmosphere was filled
with smoke and ashes. Pieces of the rot
ten, spongy boiler were also thrown to a
great distance. Buildings block off were
pierced by the flying fragments, and car
half block from the explosion was thrown
from the track. The scenes that ensued
were horrible. Women were rushing fran
tically about in search of their husbands,
sons, and relatives, supposed to be buried
in the ruins. Some twenty-five men were
at work in the establishment at the time
of the explosion. They we're all buried in
the ruins. The carriage and wagon factory
of Edward Beersch, on the west side, was
also blown up. A number of men were at
work in it at the time. The proprietor,
Mr.. Van Brock, escaped, as did also his
engineer, though the latter is reported in
dying condition. Thirteen bodies in all
have been taken from the ruins. In the
yard adjoining the premises, about noon,
there were four bodies barely recognizable,
burnt to cinders This is the most appalling
calamity Of the kind that has ever befallen
st. Louis. The cause Of the explosion was
! thes weakness Of tho boiler.

RADICAL ROORBACKS.


We have fallen upon evil times. The
very air that we breathe seems to be laden
with the deadly miasma from the political
ccss-pool. The deadly exhalations from
the northern upas have been infused into
the very hearts und souls of the dominant
party at the North and West. They are
determined to rule the country with rod
Of iron, or sink it, with all its great inte-
rests, to bottomless perdition.
We take no pleasure in speaking thus
harshly of the party in power; but their
acts are such as to call forth from every
patriot in the land the most bitter denun-
Citations. Their vindictive speeches and
vile abuse of conservative men, and the
declared purpose to give force to their po-
licy in legislative cnactments, are we'll
calculated to rouse the arprehensions and
indignation of all honest, patriotic men,
North and South.
Among the disreputable means resortcd
to by the INSCRIPTIONS leaders of the radi-
cal party to thwart the policy and destroy
the influence of President johnson with
the people, we may refer to telegram
recently sent from Washington to one of
the Philadelphia papers, in which it was
stated that the President intended soon to
refer the question of the constitutionality
of the present Congress to the Attorney
General for an official decision; and that,
in the event of decision adverse to Con-
gress, the President would acknowledge
the Northern conservatives and loyal rep
resentatives from the South as the consti-
tutional body. The author of this false
statement knew that the President had no
such intention-that. by every official act,
from first to last, he had acknowledged
the constitutionality of Congress and the
legality of its acts-and that he could not,
consistently with his own past record, be
guilty of SO foolish a thing. Why, then,
was this story published? Obviously for
the purpose of creating new difficulties
and embittering the already exasperated
feelings of the radicals toward the Presi-
dent.
Many other improbable and impossible
things are attributed to the President and
those who support him, which need not
be specifically referred to here. They all
cvince the purpose to destoy the President,
not by fair but by foul means.
We do not refer to these roorbacks SO
much for the purpose of refuting them, Or
arguing with the authors of. them, as to
let our readers see the intense hatred of the
radicals toward the Southern people,
whose destruction they seem to seek with
the rapacity and rcmoreelesspess of hun
cry blood-hounds.
