SCAKlM AND KHARTOUM.

What the country now watches is the movement
of troops TO Suakim and General Gordon's progress
toward Khartoum, General Wolseley the moment
lie received orders having acted with Characteristic
energy. BY Monday 1t is expected that the whole
force will be in motion. and before the end of a
week five thousand troops will be in Suakm. Re-
ports from Tokar are contradictory, but they indi-
cate that the garrison will be able to hold out.
General GordOn's arrival at Berber on Monday
morning was known here in the afternoon. The
copious dispatches since published have relieved
public anxiety and removed the greatest immedi-
ate danger which threatened the Ministry.
The perils of the desert vanished when
they were once faced. General Gordon as he
advances sweeps away the last vestiges of Egyptian
oppression and msrule. He appoints native rulers
and rallies tribe after tribe to his side His genius
not NJ. Gladstone's, saves the Ministry in this
emergency.

From tho Philadelphia Press.
If General Butler could be persuaded to
accept the Governorship OF Utah, his appoint
mcnt would be cordially Endorsed by pretty
much everybody. The General is not an en-
tirely lovely character, and his methods are
not wholly faultless; but he has habit Of
meeting emergencies with strong measures,
and, as a Governor OF the Polygamous domain.
he would be apt 10 convince the saints that he
was in command. Disclaiming any purpose
to inaugurate boom, but solely in the interest
OF decency in Utah, we rise to nominate for
