inter  from Col. Joluiston'8 Command.
[From the St. Louis Republican, March 15.]
Very unexpectedly, Mr. Jobn Hartuett, Secre-
taiv ofthe Territory of Utah, arrived iu tb is city
Saturday night, from Camp Scott. He left that
post Jan. 2(i. bringing us news from the army two
or three wee^s.later than ourregular advices.
At the time he left the entire commaud was in a
very comfortable condition, enjoying excellent
health, and, considering ali things, getting along
pleasantly. Ouly four deaths hud occurred since
the arrival of tlie'cominand, aud but oue officer,
Lieut. Smith, U. S. Infantry, was sick. They
had plenty to eat, and by a judicious supply of
different kinds of food, tlie scurvy was altogether
avoided.
All intercourse between the Mormons of Salt
Lake Valley and" the. troops at Camp Seott ceased
after the 1st of January. It was, however; well:
established, that the Mormons were actively employed iu fortifying the most important passes
leading to Salt Lake Ciiy, and that, they intended
to offer resistance to the advance of the army upon
their city. It is admitted that tl.e canons, fortified and in fhe possession of determined men, offer"
very great, if not insurmountable obstacles to the
march of the troops ; and it was seriously diseu-sed
in camp whether the march upou Salt Lake City
liould not be made by another route, an hundred
nilcs longer iu distance, but presenting fewer obstructions, and those of no serious magnitude.
This, it was supposed, would be done, as soon as
reinforcements, supplies, and, particularly, ani-
als could be obtained. Col. Johnston calculated
upon receiving this aid by the latter part of May
or 1st of June.,. He had ordered the troops from
Eorts Laramie and Kearney to join him ut the
earliest possible moment this spring, and they will
move, it is understood, as soon as forage sufficient
for the animals can be obtained.
It is satisfactory to know that the reports which
represented that the Indians of that country were
in the interest of, and would take sides with the
Mormons, are incorrect. A large party of the
Utahs-*-two hundred in number of the principle
men—had been at Camp Scott, were well received
by the Superintendent, who distributed presents
to them, and assurances of peaceable intentions
toward the Americans were given. As large numbers of Cheyenues, Pawnees and Sioux were in
close proximity to each other, near O'Fallon's
Blufis, a fight was expected,-,      .
The coldest weather experienced af Camp Scott
put the mercury 14 deg below zero at sunrise, but
the days were usually warm aud dry, and as the
camp is favorably located in a valley, and wood
as plenty, there was not a great deal of suffering
om this cause. At no: time had the snow been
..ore than five or six inches deep there. A theatre, under canvas, was one of the most popular
sources of amusement for tho troops, aad was well
attended,
About the time of tlieir arrival at Fort Laramie,
Mr, Garey. of the firm of Ward&Garey, suttlers
aud traders at the Fort, was killed hy the explosion of a keg of gunpowder. He was in a wagon
at the time, and his body was thrown to a great
distance. The accident occurred some disiance
from the Fort, while he was out on a trading expedition.
The Territorial Government was in rather a
passive state at Fort Scott, waiting the movements which would take fhe officers to the seat of
Government at Great Salt Lake City. Col. Johnston was very popular with his command, comprising, with the volunteers, some 2300 men, and
the most friendly relations existed between him
and the oivil division of the camp.
Notwithstanding the culpable delay of Congress
in providing sneana and money for the troops
which have been ordered to the assistance of Col.
Johnston, and which, it ie admittea, should have
bef>n done, the Administration bas not been unmindful of ils duty in this emergency. In three
or four weeks, at least SO00 troops will be en route
from Fort Leavenworth, and every effort wili be
made to reach Camp Scott in the time indicated
hy Col. Johnston. But woe to Congress, if, from
their neglect, that succor should fail, and this
gallant army be cut off. It is known to be in the
contemplation oi the Mormons to attack Fort Scott,
if a favorable opportunity is given them, before
the reinforcements can arrive, and tiiis fact ought
to induce members to let "Bleeding Kansas"
alone until all necessary apprcpriatious are made
for the Army.
Reimobobmbsts for the Utah Expsoitiox.—-
The steamerLady Walton arrived yesterday morning from Arkansas river,liav*ug carried from Fort
Smith to Jefferson Barracks a detachment of the
7th Regiment of U. S. Iroops. They number
about two hundred, and the officers are Col. 1'.
Morrison. Captains Little and Wagman, Dr. Williams, and Lieuts. Brooks and O'Connor. They
ore destined for Utah, and will be joined imme-
■ diately by othet dctachraontB.-
A late St. Joseph paper states that ou Thursday,
the 4th, Mr. Majors, of the firm of Majors & Bus-
sell, passed through that city, and informed the
citizens that he has selected Nebraska city, N. T.,
ns the point from which he has determined to start
his train for the transportation of government
freight lo Utah.
He says that his firm wili start from that point
from eight hundred to one thousand wagons. Tliey
will require from six lo eight thousand yoke of
oxen, and will engage the services of about twelve
hundred men.
The price he proposes to give for oxen is $75
per yoke, which in view of the present state ofthe
money market, is certainly a fair remuneration,
They will require the slock to be.delivered at Nebraska city, of the time of which due notico will
he f?iven through agents or tbe press.
The trains will commence moving at the earliest
practicable moment, certainly uot later than the
1st of April.— St. I^ouis Democrat.
TheNew-Mexicii.n mail of the 15IU February has
arrived. Capt. Marcy would leave about March
1st for Camp Scott, taking flour, salt, corn and
animals. Owing to the fact of his taking wag-
rons be would return via Bent's Fort, taking a
more circuitous northeasterly route than previously traveled. He is reported to have said that the
supplies could be furnished Camp Scott" much
easier and quicker from New Mexico than elsewhere. Tho Legislature had passed resolutions
complimentary to the officers of the army, and
recommending several for promotion in the even*
of an increase of the army. Kit Carson has concluded a treaty betweeu the Mutaches, Utahs, Ar-
apahoes and Pueblos. They agree to fake sides
with the United States in the event of an issue between them and the people of any Territory,
and to render any aid they can toward suppressing the rebellion in Utah. No further apprehensions are entertained for the safety of Capt.
Marcy. Full measures of precaution have been
adopted to secure his protection, and the prompt
transmission of supplies.
The train of two hundred wagons, of six mules
each, which was ordered to start from Fort Leavenworth on the 10th instant, for the purpose of
transporting supplies from Fort Laramie to Col.
Johnston's army, has been countermanded, the
contractors having assured the Department that
they are able toforwrrd the supplies without any
assistance whatever. They say they "have some
700 head of cattle, in good condition, more than
are necessary to move the stores.
The Dallas Herald (Texas) says the 7th Infan
try. Major Paul commanding, passed through that
couiji.y a few days ago, en route for Utah. These
troops have been stationed at Fort Belknap for
set oral years past. Their place will be supplied
by the cavalry.
Be Gentle at Some,—There are few families'
we imagine, anyhere, in wdiich love is not abused
as furnishing the license for impoliteness. A husband, father or brother, will speak harsh words to
those lie loves best and [hose who love him best,
simply because the security of love and family
pride keeps him from getting his head broken. It
is a shame that a man will speak more impolitely,
at times, lo his wife and sister, than he would Li
any other female, except a low and vicious one.
It is thus that the honest affections of a mi
ture prove to be a weaker protection to a woman
in the family circle than the restraints of society,
and that a woman is indebted for the kindness and
politeness of liie to those not belonging to her own
household. Things ought net so to be. The man
who, because it will not be resented, inflicts his
spleen and bad temper upon those of his hearthstone, is a small coward, and a very mean man.
Kind words are circulating mediums between true
gentlemen and ladies at home, and no polish ex
hibited in society can atone for the harsh language
and disrespectful treatment too often indulged in
between those bound together by God's own ties
of blood, and the still more sacred bonds of coi
jugal love.
A Warm Advocate op Early Marriages.—Dr.
Bellows, the distinguished Unitarian preacher in
New Tork, is urging the young people to make
their final choice and gel, spliced without delay,
•In his last lecturebefore the Lowell (Mass.) Institute, lie strongly recommended early marriages as
a cure for tbe moral depravity wliich stalks abroad
in large cities without fear or shame. The great
cause of tbe falling off of marriages within the
last few years he attributes to the extravagant
tastes and expensive habits of modern misses,
which deter young men of small means from venturing upon matrimony. We agree with the Rev.
Doctor. There is certainly no charm to keep
young men from the mauiiold temptations of cities
like a cheerful, smiling home, where the wife can.
learn to accommodate her tastes to her means.
Marked Passages jx Novels.-—In one of Car.
oline Gilman's romances—library copy—thispass-
age was marked and much thumbed :
" There is no object so beautiful to me as a con-
sciencious young man—I watch him as I do a star
in heaven."
" That is my view, exactly," sighed Miss Josephine Hoops, as she laid down the volume, " in
fact, I-think there is nothing so beautiful as a
young man, even if he ain't consciencious."
"Now girls," said Mrs. ParUngton the other
day to her nieces, " you must get husbands as soon
is possible, or they'll be murdered." ". Why so,
aunt?" inquired one. Why, I see by the paper
that we've got almost fifteen thousand posto'tiiees,

A Charge jia ra a Charge.—Judge Jonah Joles,
a western judicial dignitary, recently delivered
the following charge to the jury, in the case of
Eiius Crunch, on trial for stealing: —
"Jury, you kin go out, and dou't show your
ugly mugs here till you find a verdict. If you
can't find one of your own, git the one tha lasi
jury used."
fhe jury retired, and after an absence of fifteen'
minutes, returned with a verdict of " Suicidu iu
the ninth degree, and fourth verse."
Then Judge Jonah Joles pronounced upon
Crunch this sentence :
" Flim Crunch, stand up and face the musio,-
You are found guilty of suicide for stealing. Now,
this court sentences you to pay a fine of two still-'
lings, to shave your head with-a baganct in the'
barracks, and if you try to cave in the heads of
any of the jury, you'll catch thunder, that's all.'
Your fate will be a warning to others ; aud, in'
conclusion, may the Lord bave mercy on your"
soul. Sheriff, git me a pint, of red-eye 1 I'm aw-"

'Twas at the close ofa glorious summer day—
the sun was sinking behind a dist.int hog-pen—'
the chickens were going to roost—tho bull-frogs'
were commencing their evening songs—the pol-"
lywogs, in their native mud-puddles, were preparing themselves for the shades of night—and Sal'
and myself sat upon nn antiquated back log, listening to the music of nature, such as . tree-toads,-
roosters and grunting pigs, and now and then the
mellow music of a distant jackass was wafted to*
our ears by the gentle zephyrs that sighed among'
the mullon-stalks, and came heavy laden with the'
delicious odor of hen roosts and pig styes. Tho'
last lingering rays ofthe setting sun, glancing'
from the brass buttons of a solitary horscmany
shone through a knot-hole in tlie pigpen full in'
Sal's face, dyeing her hair with au orange-peel
hue, and showing off my thread-bare coat to bad
advantage-—she was toying with my auburn locks'
of jet black hue—she was almost gone and I wag1
ditto. She looked like a grasshopper dying with
the hiccups, and I felt like a mud-lurtio choked'

A Worthy Wu*k.—I happened to stroll into'

The bridegroom, to whom tlio pen was first'

who came next, did tlie same.
Now, I had known that girl when last there, uot'

ing distinguished herself iii the school; and I
could not help looking at her with surprise. She'
came aside and whispered to me, while tears of
honest love aud admiration stood" in her eyes:
'" He's a dear good fellow, miss, but he cannot;

wouldn't shame him for the world."
