Reconsideration Ii Utah.

The authority OF the United States govern
,oeut hs, been for the first time Equsrely esiab-
lshed IN direct conflict between the fe-ersi
and Mormon officers. The recent attempts 70
impeach the o. S Judges and other officers who
have been iischsrging their duties with some
what conspicuous disregard Of Mormon interests
snd authority having failed, the Mormon
leaders undertook to bolster up their prestige by
,.how Of military strength. To this end the Nor
mon " Lieutenant General 80 issued orders sl-
pointing parade and review Of the militia On
the Fourth of July. lion George Blsck, acting
governor Of the territory, st once Informed the
Mormon COMMANDER that his office was not
recognized by the L. s. Government, and thsI
the proper territorial sulhorities were the only
ones having power to order ont the militia he
also issued proclamation forhiiding the gath
ering of the miHtis or Of any armed perloas
within the territory except by the Governors
orders The Mormons having announced their
determination TO proceed with their parade
nevertheless, Gov Black called OIL Co. DeTro-
BRAND, commanding Camp Douglass, near salt
Lake CITY, for force TO sustain his authority.
Col DeTrobriHnd promptly responded, and three
companies Of [. S. Infantry, company Of cav
airy and battery Of light artillery were placed
in readiness to march into the city. The {. 5.

that if the civil authorities could not enforce the
Governors order, martial law should be a once
proclaimed, the Mormon legion dispersed by
powder and ball, and its oiicers s-restel.
On Monday evening Col Beforehand and
committee Of United States officials called on the
Mormon leaders, when Mayer Wells, commander
Of the Mormon militia, had the sudscity 10 sgg
gest that the Governors proclamation be re-
called This proposition was rejected and De
Trobrisnd closed the interview by warning
Wells that if there was psraie the consequences
would be on his own head. Wells tbereupon
concluded to call special meeting Of the City
Council and the elders Of the Mormon church,
who are the power behind the throne, 70 take into
consideration the whole matter. At this conference
the determined attitude Of the Government off,
cert, and the knowledge Of the circumstance that
some two thousand miners stood ready to take S
hand, on the side Of the United States, in any
fighting that was coming of, had their proper
effect The Mormon leaders yielded, and COL
De Trobriand was officially informed that the
