A dispatch from Beaver, Utah, says that the
prosecution in the Mountain Meadow massacre
will not make use of the statement of Lee, one
Of the parties indicted for the murder, as they
expect to prove more by the witnesses already
summoned than he confessed. On the assemb-
ling of the court yesterday the names of one
hundred aud seven witnesses were called, not
more than half of whom answered. Lees coun-
sel asked for continuance until to-day, when
they promised to be ready to go to trial. The
immediate motive for the massacre, it is .alleg-
ed, was revenge on the part of the Mormons
for the murder of one of their apostles, Parsley
p Pratt, while in Arkansas from which State
he had eloped to Utah With married woman,
and to which he returned for her children when
be was killed. by the injured husband, 1t is
alleged that the passage of this party of emf
grants through Utah was made the occasion for
the tul6llment Of prophecy by Brigham
Young that the death of the apostle would be
avenged in the ratio Of hundred to one;". that
they were guided by spies to the fatal Noun
tain Meadow that they we're attacked by
Mormons disguised as Indians; that Dime and
Lee came ostensibly to their aid with body Of
militia, induced them to surrender their arms
by way OF appeasing the ''savages," and them
led them out to slaughter. Seventeen children
we're spared, the oldest being a girl Of thirteen,
who will appear as witness.
