Long Island COnYerts-Fas of the
Mormon PrOseIyting Preachers.
The apostles of Mormonism who have been
intent, in season and out of season, in indoctri-
mating the people of Long Island In the word of
Brigham, counted it their chefest JOY on Tues
day to convey company of about sixty, the
majority OF whom are women, to Salt Lake City,
This the elders believe to be an earnest of what
is to follow They say the work is only begun
The elders and bishops have been threatened
with violence by the people of Long Island. The
preachers have received anonymous letters
warning them to quit and the bishops have been
burned in effigy by the incensed people In some
parts of the island. The preachers have recently
been Obliged to work secretly to insure them
selves personal safety, and 1t seems that the
same success has attended their endeavors as in
the public administration.
From Patchouge and Babylon, from Islip and
Freeport the converts have gathered, and the
South Side Railroad has borne them as far as Il
may TO the New Jerusalem. Their baggage
filed one car while their bodies flled another,
and with derisive shouts from the old and
laughter from the young, the emigrants left

II Is said by the women who remain on Long
Island that 1t was love of the fair sex for the
men, and the captivating manners of the
preachers, that led SO many of the young girls to
espouse the doctrines taught by Brigham 6S Co
But they have gone and the virtuous populace
mourn not their departure.

PORTO CABELLo, March 9.-The whole city is
In state OF alarm, and the women and children
do not know where to fly for refuge from the
insurgents who, it is expected, will take the
city when they choose. Affairs are in much
worse state than at my last; the insurgents have
succeeded In nearly all their movements against
the Government troops, and feel confident of
oyeIthTowing Monagas in very short time.
The President, at last accounts, was on his
way to Coro on the war steamer Bolivar, with
eight hundred men; but he has met with ill sue
cess thus far in his efforts to suppress the re-
bellion. His intention was to reinforce the
troops at Coro and from thence to march
against the insurgent army at Barquisemeto and
San Felipe but while he has been going by sea
tc Coro the rebels have moved by land to this
vicinity and are now actively besieging this city,
which is entirely at their mercy.
They have possession of all the approaches,
and allow nothing TO pass, and we have had
no mails or communication with Valencia or
the interior for the past twelve days. They
have cut off the water main by which the city
is supplied from the river San Estevan, and there
is none to be had except from the old wells.
Skirmishes take place in the suburbs daily
between the insurgents and the Government
troops; but after few shots the rebels usually
retire 10 the mountains.
GuZman Blanco the prominent leader In this
revolution, and who is the candidate for the
Presidency, has landed on the coast of Cura-
mienate from Curacoa, whence he was ordered
away by the King of Holland, and is said to be
now at San Felipe. with force of insurgents
under his command. He has issued procla-
nation in relation to the demands of the revo-
Iutionifts upon the Monagas Government, the
particulars of which have not yet come TO hand

Laguayra and Caracas are in imminent danger
of capture; the revolutionists are In large force
in the immediate vicinity of these places, and
nearly or quite surrounding them. They have
700 troops at Macuto, a few miles from Laguayra,
aud 1000 more at Curriaca. General Salazar is
operating at Guigue.
The war steamer of the Government, the
Federation, has been ordered to Barcelona, TO
assist in the operations against the rebels at
that place.

FINANCE AND COMMERCE..
HvEHRG TELEGRAPH OFFICE,

Friday, March 20, I6IU }
There is nothing new to notice in financial
circles to-day. Currency is abundant and easy
to all in want of it who are possessed of claims
to favors or in good standing with lenders, and
the year. The banks are discountng all the ap-
proved paper presented by their regular GUS
TONERS at legal rates; but outsiders, even where
offering the best equivalent for money in the
MARKET have to pay per cent. and occasionally
s for these favors. On call, loans are readily
obtained at per cent. on choice collaterals.
There is some business demand for Gold, but
no speculation. Sales opened at 112L, and
fuctuated between that figure and l129S.
Government bonds are quiet butt steady at
about yesterdays closing quotations.

GENERALITIES.
The HniIeY linaR.

Nothing new was made known yesterday with
regard to the fugitive eXCOllector of New York.
Various idle ruinors were in circulation, aud it
continues to be mysteriOasly affirmed that Bailey
is concealed somewhere in the city or neighbor-
hood, and would be speedily forthcoming if an
adequate reward were offered for his apprehen-
sion, but the real truth as to his whereabouts is
still secret to the authorities and to his best
friends.
Another Steamship Probably In Peril.
The ship Prima Donna, Captain Lunt, which
arrived at New York yesterday from Liverpool,
reports that on the 9Th inst, latitude 40 N, lon
gitude 33 W., made a light half point on port
bow, kept off and then made another light on
the lee bow--one was that of a steamer aud the
other that of sailing vessel. Both vessels were
firing rockets. 1t is thought one was short of
provisions, and the other was supplying. AS it
was blowing gale from southeast, aud very
dark, Captain Lunt could not make out what
they were.
A sad AHiiction.
Seven merchants, all doing business on the
same street in Halifax, were lost in the steamer
City of Boston. They had gone out to pur-
chase their spring supply of goods, and will
never more return.
Thomas Henry Nicholson,
an English sculptor and draughtsman on wood,
and pupil of Chantery, died on the Sth inst. at
Portland, England. He was the actual modeller
of series of statuettes for which that immense
humbug, Count d'Orsay, claimed the entire
credit and got no little reputation.
