IMPORTANT FROM UTAH. A Fortnight Later from Salt Lake City. Interesting Accounts from Camp Scott. Important Intelligence of the De- signs of the Mormons. Gov. Cumming Watched by Spies and Denounced by Brigham Young. Arrival of 150 Emigrant Mormons from Salt Lake City at Camp Scott. Gov. Cumming's Visit to Salt Lake—Col. Kane's Operations—Army Movements—Mormon Outrages—The Peace Commissioners. From the Special Correspondent of the New-York Times. CAMP SCOTT, NEAR FORT BRIDGER UTAH TERRITORY, Friday, May 28, 1858.) I arrived here at a late hour last evening with the mail of the 1st inst. from the Missouri River, and as the mail starts tomorrow morning on its return to the East, am compelled to send you a somewhat hasty letter, embracing such matters of interest as have transpired here since the; departure of the last mail, reserving for a future occasion some notes of our trip across the Plains, and a more complete descrip-tion than I can make at present of the Camp of the army in Utah. We expected to have arrived on the 22d inst., but unusually bad roads, consequent upon long-continued Spring rains, and detention at the crossing of the South Fork of the Platte River, result-ting from the same cause, rendered the loss of five days quite unavoidable. Our arrival even in twenty-seven days, was hailed with joyful surprise by the Army here, who had almost come to the conclusion, that news from home was never to reach them in much less than about twice that time. We overtook the well-appointed train of the Peace Commissioners, Messrs. POWELL, and MCCULLOCH, at the South Platte crossing, notwithstanding they had six days the start of us—and as they cannot reach here before to-mor-row night, we have beaten them quite eight days. Wow that the new mail contractors over this route have distributed their stock along the road, I thick you may rely confidently upon regular communica-tion between the Army and the Missouri in the con-tract time of twenty-two days. But more of tills in my next. You are already aware that General JOHNSTON, commanding the forces here, has moved his Camp this Spring from its Winter location down to Fort Bridger. The present Camp is admirably located in the centre of a great level plain or basin, surrounded jay low ranges of hills, with the now snow-covered Wasatch Mountains looming up grandly to the South-ward. Black Fork of the Green River,—a beautiful little creek of purest water, meanders gracefully through the Camp, supplying the simplest of bever-ages in great abundance and convenience. "Fort Bridger," as you already know, was a fron-tier trading post, established here many years ago by Major BRIDGER, who is now in Camp. Last year, af-ter the difficulties with the Mormons became serious, and when the latter determined upon the silly effort to resist the forces of the Federal Government, they came down to BRIDGET'S place in armed binds, and forced him to sell out his property to them. This accomplished, they proceeded to erect a fort of cobble stores and mud, the walls of which are some 12 feet high, and 4 feet thick at the base. Inside of these they erected building's in which a Mormon garrison and its supplies were to be quar-tered and stored. Back of and attached to this "fort'' erected around a corral, or place for the securemen of horses and cattle at night, or upon the approach o danger. When the troops advanced in this direction' however, the Mormons burned the buildings and aban-doned their post,—their work upon which was exten sive and well done. Within the deserted wails Gen. JOHNSTON has erected commodious buildings for the storage of supplies of all kinds, as well as for the use of the sutlers of the army. He has also thrown up defences commanding the approaches in every direction, con-sisting of parapets upon which artillery is mounted. The walls of these parapets ate constructed of clay and sod, the inner surface being laid up with sods packed in hampers constructed upon the spot from the willows which fringe the crcek already mentioned. These dirt embankments are very thick, and would offer much more successful resistance than would the cobble-stone walls to assault by artillery. These works, together with the construction of several ex-cellent carriage-way bridges across the wider and deeper bends of the creek, and numerous foot-bridges by which communication is maintained between the different sections of the camp, have furnished no lit-tle employment to the enlisted men during the dead of Winter, as well as during the last month. A single glance at the Camp and at the denizens if this canvas town when on parade, is sufficient to show the fact that the discipline of this army is of the highest order. The drills have been maintained with persistent rigor, until the troops are as near perfect in the performance of their duty as could well be. This is true as well of the Volunteer battalion as of the regulars, of whom Gen. JOHNSTON is evidently equally proud. The Winter just closed has been a severe one upon the troops,—although the season was milder far than could have been expected. Still, Winter life in tents in this mountaineus region, and that with short supplies—and some of these of wretched quality—was well calculated under the most favorable circumstances to try the patience and the temper of the men. It is no ordinary compliment, therefore, to the commanding officer and his assistants in every grade, that even in the ranks the most excellent and soldierly spirit pre-vails. I called on General JOHNSTON to-day. He is, ap-parently, something over fifty years of age, and a plain, frank, whole- hearted soldier, equal to any emergency, and always prepared for it. In simple, honest directness of manner, coolness of purpose, readiness of action, and practical common sense, he reminds me much of the lamented Gen. TAYLOR. During the time I spent in his tent, I had no difficulty in understanding the magnetism which attracts to him the respect and love of his command. I am told that, amid ail the privations of the Winter, the men never thought of complaining, even among them-selves, of their Commander, who, they saw, sharing equally with themselves in the inconvenience of short rations, and struggling, with the aid of an excellent Commissary Department, to defeat the Mormon de-sign of starving the army—a design which the de-struction of the supply trains in October last would have rendered easy of accomplishment except for Gen. JOHNSTON'S efforts. The accounts which I sent you from Laramie in re-lation to the near exhaustion of provisions in this camp, were somewhat exaggerated, as. I led you to an-iticipate. The stock of some articles, however, is en-tirely exhausted; but unexpected successes in ef-forts made to purchase supplies of beef cattle in the mountains, have eked out the supplies, so that the 15th of June might be reached without serious dis-tress, and long before that time an abundant new stock will have arrived here under escort of Colonel HOFFMAN. On our journey hither we passed the lat-ter officer, who had divided his train into three parts, sending on a mule train of thirty wagons of provi-sions, under command of Captain LOVELL, of the 6th Infantry. We passed the latter at Sweet Water Bridge, several days ago, traveling at a rate which will certainly bring him in. by Tuesday next, and probably sooner, as an escort has gone from here to meet him, with fresh mules to assist in facilitating his movements. Colonel HOSTMAN is not more than four or five days behind him, with another mule train, and the ex train from Laramie, with the heavier arti-cles, in charge of Captain STEWART, of the 1st Caval-ry, may also be expected here by the 15th or 20th of June. We passed the latter on the 22d inst, a day's travel west of Platte Bridge. It is not believed that any danger to these trains is to be apprehended from the Mormons,—and Mends of the army in the East, therefore, may rest assured danger of a camp famine is over. There is a very general feeling of regret in the army here at the intelligence that Gen. JOHNSTON is to be superseded in the command here, and especially in view of the probability that he will be succeeded by Gen. HARNEY, who evidently is not popular in this branch of the service. The skill with which JOHN-STON has condu-cted his command through the perils ; of the last six months justly entitle him, in their esti-mation, to the, opportunity of reaping whatever glory is to be achieved in the more active operations of the present season, and to rob him of it is looked upon as rank injustice. Besides, the army of Utah realize the fact that if HARNEY had promptly accepted this command when first offered him, early last Summer, and as promptly set it in motion westward, the forces would have been safely into Salt Lake City last Au-tum, and so would have been saved the hardships at-tendant upon an exposed Whiter camp in these moun-tains. Unless the assignment of HARNEY to com-mand here (in the almost certain event that Gen. SMITH fails to come in consequence of ill health) cov-ers some great measure of policy, too deep for the comprehension of minds not fettered in red tape, it will prove a serious blunder; breeding discontent in the army, which, however well concealed, will be none the less dispiriting and demoralizing. It cer-tainly does seem as though the Federal Administra-tion is doomed to serious blunder in each and every successive step of their policy in respect to Utah. The President's Proclamation tendering a general amnesty to the people of Utah for all seditions and treasons of the past—a copy of which I brought hither—is received by the Army with infinite disgust. Indeed, during the last twelve hours it has been the butt of a continual fire of jests, which have far more of gall than humer in their composition, The idea of tendering pardon to a people who do not ask it, bat who are still in open rebellion against the Govern-ment, defying its officers and threatening its Army with annihilation, is mournfully ludicrous to the brave men who were ready to risk their lives in maintaining the honor of that flag which the Presi-dent thus trails in the dust. Indignant mortification is the almost universal sentiment, if I may judge from what I have seen and heard during an entire day of wandering about the camp. Every man feels that he has been brought here on a fool's errand—that he has been betrayed by the same hand which, raised on the 4th of March, 1857, in oath to support the Constitu-tion, has now dishonored it, and prostrated the dig-nity of a great nation in the eyes of a world. Their mortification and disappointment are honorable to them ; for it is not the result of a blood-thirsty desire to shed human blood. but rather of an earnest desire to see the traitors of Salt Lake humbled before the majesty of the law they have so long defied. The course pursued by Governor CUMMING—a course which seems to have been shrouded in pro-found mystery,—the mission of Colonel THOS. L. KANE to Salt Lake, and his mysterious consultations with Governor CUMMING, and the appointment of the expected. Peace Commission, were disjointed events of which the Presidential Proclamation new seems to have been the key and interpretation. You are already aware that Governor CUMMING has never acted here nor attempted to act in harmony with the Judicial officers of the Territory or with the Army. Over-confident in his own genius, self-assured that he could so skillfully palaver BRIGHAM YOUNG and his wives as to make the whole traitorous brood of Salt Lake docile as kittens, he has wasted his energies in temporizing efforts to coax where it was long since apparent that coercion at the cannon's mouth was the only suitable mode of solving the Mormon problem, and crushing out the theocracy so strangely attempt-ed to be maintained within the limits of a Republic. The honesty of his motives it is not for me to discuss but the policy of his course as a public officer is just subject of criticism, and unless those who have studied the Mormon problem long and seriously, and who have had sorrowful experience of its intricacies, are greatly mistaken, even Governor CUMMING'S gray hairs will probably blanch a shade whiter ere he dies, at sight of the evil which his mistaken course has en-tailed. To capitulate briefly, these are the facts, as they now seem to stand-in-regular and connected se-quence : From the hour of his arrival in Utah, Gov. CUMMING has shrouded himself in mystery,—with a policy of his own, the secret springs of which were studiously concealed from his associates here. It is now believed that he has been acting ail along, under secret instructions from the President, of which it is more than probable that BRIGHAM YOUNG has informa-tion. Next, Col. THOS. L. KANE, a sympathizer with the Mormon faith, and therefore necessarily a disci-ple and servant of it High Priest, mysteriously dis-appeared from Washington and turned up in Salt Lake City, via California, on some secret mission to BRIGHAM YOUNG. True, he denies having any "pow-ers" from the President, and yet he was able to ex-hibit here and elsewhere "letters" from the Presi-dent, which secured Mm at once free entrance to this Camp from Salt Lake, and free egress on his re-turn,—the confidence of Governor CUMMINGS, and the aid of federal officials wherever found. He was clearly an accredited agent of the President to the arch-traitor of Salt Lake : and he possessed secant talismanic power with him, which induced BRIGHAM YOUNG to recall his oath that no new Governor should enter the Territory, and to send KANE out to Bridger to bring Gov. CUMMING in. What was this talisman? And what was the subject of the several interviews between KANE and CUMMING, which final-ly resulted in the journey of the latter into Salt Lake,—interviews and proceedings still conducted with the most insulting secresy from Gen. JOHNSTON and Judge ECKLES? The proclamation thought to fur-nish the key: and it is supposed that the President, in his agony lest the Mormons should either go to Sonora, and so render that Province impossible of acquisition, or else should compel him to accept the responsibility of forcing tae people of Salt Lake ta obedience to the law—determined to send a Mormon emissary to Brother BRIGHAM, to notify him that he would soon send out Commissioners with a bushel of printed proclamations, pardoning all their past offences, provided they would only consent to sham obedience to the law for the future, and so let the federal Administration get its fingers out of the fire. Let future developments, and the light they shed decide upon the accuracy of these views. The circumstances of the Governor's visit to Salt Lake Valley have been detailed to you already, I understand, in your correspondence from this point, but some additional facts have been developed within a day or two. The Governor has stated that he was net attended by any guard while in the Valley, and that all the people who desired had free access to him. He undoubtedly so supposed; but the proof is now indisputable that he was surrounded continu-ally by a secret guard, who turned away every par-son whose communication with him was likely to be detrimental to the interests of the Theocracy. This we learn from a party of about 150 emigrants from Salt Lake, who arrived here night before last, having been permitted by BRIGHAM to leave the Valley under a pledge given by him to Governor CUMMING, that all who desired to go out should do so freely. From these, as also from Mr. RICHARD JAMES, of whom I shall have something more to say, we learn that, af-ter CUMMINGS returned to camp from the Valley, BRIGHAM, and others of the Hierarchy, spoke of him in public meetings in the most disrespectful and filthy manner, boasting of the ease with which they had hoodwinked him, and declaring that he could never be their Governor. Indeed, even, on the after-noon succeeding the morning in which Governor CUMMING made his speech in the Tabernacle, BRIG-HAM applied opprobrious epithets to him from the same pulpit. He remarked that CUMMING, on that morning, had said he was happy to have the privi-lege of meeting the people of Salt Lake there. "I could have called him a liar then," continued the Prophet, "and I now say he is a d—d liar, the pusil-lanimous old scoundrel—who would never have come out here if I had not sent Colonel KANE to him two or three times to assure Mm that he would be in no danger of his life." It may be proper here to state that Mr. JAMES was told by Bishop BUTLER, of Spanish Fork, that Colonel KANE was rebaptized and received his endowments immediately upon his arrival at Salt Lake City from California. In Provo city, on the Sunday following CUMMING'S visit there, BRIGHAM, in a sermon, spoke as follows: "Governor CUMMING has been here and promised the people protection! indeed! but the poor, lousy old curse can't protect himself much less anybody else. Why, I have to send a guard around with him to prevent the people from cutting his throat." Subsequently he stated that Salt Lake City was his individual property—he would burn it down to-morrow. He had moved the people all south, however, and it was his purpose to bnrn the city any how, soon as the troops should approach it. He told the people, however, to keep perfectly quiet; to settle down in the southern settlements to which they had removed, cultivating their crops ; and in sixty days, or as soon as Colonel Kane could go to Washing-ton and back, he would tell them whether they were to re-main in the Valley or leave it. Mr. JAMES thinks that if the Mormons leave the Valley, it is BRIGHAM'S inten-tion to strike across the White Mountains, and then proceed northwaard to the British Possessions. The Mormons assert, doubtless falsely, that they have re-cently received from the British Government encour-agement to go into their possessions on the Pacific, j lie does not doubt that BRIGHAM will destroy Salt Lake soon as the troops approach it, as they have already burned the northern settlements of Box El-der and Willow Creek. The march via the White Mountains to the British Possessions, would be some 700 or 800 miles, BRIGHAM, however, seems to be prepared for his own escape in an emergency, hav-ing kept heard of some fifty or sixty superior mules, belonging to the church, in fine condition, down in San Pete Valley, 132 mules south of Salt Lake, and in the neighborhood, to which he has conveyed his spirituals. There is no doubt that they are designed for his own and his harem's flight. Mr. JAMES states that Gov. CUMMING's Mormon guard, when he visited Provo, consisted of HOWARD EGAN, JNO. KAY, FAYETTE WORTHEN, DAVID CANDLAND, WM. KEMBLE, and Col. KANE. In view of such details as these, it would seem difficult TO doubt that the Govern-or was mistaken in supposing his own movements in the Valley to have been so entirely free of espionage and restraint. Just after the Governor left Provo, JOHN YOUNG, brother of the prophet, in a "sermon'' preached at Spanish Fork, which Mr. JAMES heard, told the people not to be uneasy about leaving their homes, but to go or, with their improvements, in the faith that the army would never interrupt them. "If we give them Salt Lake City," he continued, "that will fill the bill; and if they attempt to come around the point of the Mountain, (which divides Salt Lake Valley from Utah Valley.) Brother BRIGHAM will make a bone-yard of the place, for not a single sol-dier shall eater here. He has thus far kept the boys oft", but if they provoke his wrath, he will let them have full play, end wipe out the scoundrels. Breth-ren, let us listen to what our Governor says. BRIG-HAM is our Governor, always has been, and always will be. He is the only man who ever can govern this people. Let old Governor CUMMING go to h—l, where he will go soon, any way, with all his d—d party. The old scoundrel got up and said he wanted the ladies on his side, and d—n him, that is all they do want. His speech was something like the one BROCCHUS made. When he came out here he said in the Tabernacle that he wanted the ladies on his side, and it was hard work for Brother BRIGHAM to keep the people from cutting his throat the moment he left the pulpit. The Lord has fought our battles so far, and he will fight them again, and so we'll have no d—d Gentiles among us." All this should be very encour-aging to Governor CUMMING, who seems to think he can mould BRIGHAM & Co. at will like wax. The Company of Emigrants from Salt Lake City who arrived here a day or two ago, are camped just outside the picket lines. Most of them are of English birth, though a few are Americans. They are unanimous in the declaration that the United States troops would never have met with any serious oppo-sition in attempting to enter the Valley, and that if protection should be afforded to them by the troops, full one-half the entire Mormon community would embrace the opportunity to flee from the moral and physical slavery in which they are held. While grateful to Governor CUMMING for having secured them the privilege of abandoning their farms and bu-siness in Salt Lake City, and fleeing with just suffi-cient to bring them out, they declare that he is utterly deceived in supposing that his intercession was prac-tically effectual in behalf of a tithe ol those who de-sired to leave. The secret guard surrounding the Governor prevented access to him by any except such as BRIGHAM was willing to have leave, because; he knew them to be competent witnesses against crime, or for some other equally selfish reason. Every sort of device was employed to prevent parties from leaving, and only enough at last were permitted to go out to give a color of good faith to the promise made to Governor C. The women, for instance, by hundreds, who had looked to the arival of the army for rescue at last from their degradation, saw the death-knell of their hopes in the command of their masters that they should go to the southern settlements. By driving the doubtful men and women South ward, it was easy to reduce the number of those who attempted to avail themselves of Governor C.' s pro-tection to a very small figure. As an example of the means used to prevent the departure of the seceders, I they mention the case of one poor woman whose ap-peal for a passport outward was answered with a mocking affirmative, while at the same moment her children were torn from her arms and sent "South." Under such circumstances, of course, a mother's love turned her face to wards her children, and she fol-lowed them into their hopeless captivity. Others were robbed under various pretexts, and so left with-out the means of leaving. Not one of those who got off at last escaped all sorts of amazing extortions, such as being compelled to pay unjust debts, in some cases, two or three times over; and when all other devices of extortion had been exhausted, they were each compelled to pay a year's taxes in advance. Most of these Mormon emigrants are intelligent and shrewd. They all add their testimony to that of so many others heretofore given in your columns, urging the duty of the Government of the United States to follow the Mormon community, with law and just Ministers of it, wherever it may go, until the most degrading chains of servitude which ever galled the limbs of white or black, are stricken from the helpless thousands who now wear them only because they arc powerless to escape. How long shall this wail of our brethren and sisters inhumanity be heard, yet heeded not by the great Republic of the Nineteenth Century? Will the people of the United States longer permit Presidents to trifle with the lives, liberties and very souls of fifty thousand human beings, whose suffer-ings are daily mocked by our boasted stripes and stars? Governor Cumming sent an express in to BRIGHAM YOUNG, on Sunday last, by the hands of one BEVIES, an apostate Mormon. What the burden of the dis-patch was, nobody knows,—but it is well understood that the Governor intends returning to Salt Lake with the Peace Commissioners, taking his wife with him. Some time ago, I understand, the Governor, with-out revealing anything of his mystery to Judge ECK-ELS, desired the latter to go into the city with him. The Judge took a day to consider the matter, and when the Governor called for his answer, assured him that he was all ready to go—much to the Gov -rnor's pleasure and surprise. But the Judge pro-cecded to suggest that he (the Governor) ought to be j informed how he was going, to which Mr. C. assent-ed. The Judge then told him that he should call upon Gen. JOHNSTON to go with him, with his whole army, to act as posse comitatus, to enable him to ar-rest BRIGHAM YOUNG and others for treason! This revelation of purposes satisfied the Governor that, after all, he didn't want the Judge's company on his excursion. After the Governor's return from the City, he ad-dressed an official letter to Gen. JOHNSTON, assuring him of his entire satisfaction that there were now no armed forces in the Territory of Utah, outside the United States Army, except a small force under his (the Governor's) own orders. He, therefore, request-ed the General to remove, for the future, all restraint upon postal, social, or commercial intercourse with the people of Salt Lake Valley. The General issued an order accordingly,—and ail parties are free, there-fore, to go or come now as they see fit. It would hardly be safe, however, for a Mormon to visit this camp. Indeed, I am told that Col. KANE was in great danger of personal violence while here, and was only saved by the rigor of the discipline in the camp. A fitting commentary upon the Governor's asser-tion that all the military forces of Salt Lake, now un-der arms, are under his command, is the fact tha there are guards, numbering in the aggregate about 700 men, stationed in Echo and Emigration Cañons, and on the Weber, to prevent the passage from out the City of any who are without passes from BRIG-HAM YOUNG. Does the Governor mean to say that he has an armed force stationed for the purpose of im-posing such restraints as these upon the movements of American citizens? The seceders recently arrived here were detained several days on the Weber, await-ing the permission of the commander of the guard there to proceed. United States Marshal DOTSON—a pains-taking offi-cer, as mildly deliberate in the consideration of his duty as he is firm and resolute in its performance, ad-dressed an official letter to Governor CUMMING, on the 25th inst., asking him to provide him with a posse sufficient to enable him to arrest BRIGHAM YOUNG and ethers for peas, on and other crimes, The Governor, instead of complying with the request, addressed a curt letter to the Marshal, asking when the United States Court will meet again, and demanding his evi-dence to support the assertion that the Territory is in a state of rebellion, and asking whether he had made an effort to serve the writs, and met the "resistance'' in their service without which he, (the Governor,) in his Proclamation of the 21st November, 1857, had de-clared that he would not resort to a military posse, The Marshal's letter, it should be borne in mind, said nothing whatever about a military posse. The cor-respondence has not yet ended. CHARLES MOGO, United States Deputy Surveyor for Utah, when compelled to flee from the Territory some months ago, left his field-notes in charge of his wife who left them in a box in charge of a Mrs. GRAY, since when he had heard nothing of them. Mrs GRAY was among those who, with her husband, were compelled to go to the Southern settlements under the recent order of the Prophet; she sent word out here to Mr. Mogo by one of the Party recently ar-rived, informing him where his papers were buried and begging him for God's sake to find some means of rescuing her from Mormondom. The papers were important. Mr. RICHARD W. JAMES, to whom I have referred several times in this communication, and Wm THOMAS arrived at the camp on the 23d inst, in the company and trader the protection of two Ute Indi-ans, PINTUTT (who once saved Surveyor-Genera. BURR'S lift) and SHORNEGUNER. Both the gentlemen had been in the employ of Dr. Hurt, United States Indian Agent. JAMES, as interpreter, had especially won the confidence and regard of the Utes, having been employed upon the Peteetenet Indian reserva-tion on the Spanish Fork, in Utah Co. When Dr. HURT made his escape from the Mormon fury, he left JAMES and THOMPSON in charge of the reservation,—but the Mormons almost immediately deposed them, robbed tie farm of more than half the grain raised for support of the Indians, carried away or burned the fences, and tried JAMES twice on the accusation o being a spy in the employ of HURT, who they pre-tended to believe was endeavoring to incite the Indi-ans against the Mormons. Finding himself watched at every turn, he took advantage of the excitement attending Gov. CUMMING; visit to Provo, to attempt to escape, but was obliged to return in consequence of the deep snow on the mountains. PINTUTT told him not to repeat the attempt then, but to wait until Spring, when be would go with Mm and help him out. Subsequently PINTUTT went to BRIGHAM; warned him against any outrage upon JAMES, telling him be wanted him to go out of the settlements in safety, and that as sure as he was harmed the Indians would kill "Mormon captains." When JAMES learned that BRIGHAM knew of his intention to escape, he went, and after a promise to return after having been pres-ent at a treaty to be made between the Utes and Snakes, succeeded in getting the following passport: Provo, Thursday, May 20, 1858. I am willing that RICHARD JAMES should go with the Indians to Fort Bridger. BRIGHAM YOUNG. The two Indians obtained the following pass: To all whom it may concern: The bearers, PINTUTT and SHORNBGUNER, are hereby permitted to pass up Provo Cañon to the Indian cams near Fort Bridger, and return by the same route with his father, PETEETENET, and such of his nation as may choose to accompany him. By order of Brig Gen. AARON JOHNSTON. Commanding Peteltenet Military District. HEAD-QUARTERS OF MILITARY DISTRICT, SPRINGVILLE CITY, May 20, 1858. A pass was also obtained, after some difficulty, for THOMAS, as follows: PROVO CITY, Thursday. May 20, 1858. To the Guard in Provo Cañon: GENTLEMEN: You will please let the bearer, WM. THOMAS, pass out and in. Yours respectfully, LEWIS ROBINSON, Second Major Nauvoo Legion. The parties left at once, and reached this Camp on the morning of the 23d. You may be assured that they have no intention of returning except with the army. I have obtained from Mr. JAMES one or two chapters of Mormon horrors worth relating. In Jan-uary last, two Ute Indians, while digging for roots, discovered the freshly interred bodies of four men, who had been shot and had their throats cut. This was near the Mormon City of Springville. The bod-ies were recognized as those of teamsters who came hither last Fall with supply-trains, and went so Salt Lake with the design of proceeding to California. It was reported that they started for the Pacific coast, but were caught at Habble Creek, brought: back and murdered. It is matter of current conversation among the Mormons, that in February last another teamster, while standing in a street of Springville, was asked what he thought of the Mormons? And replied that they were a set of d—d thieves, A Mormon standing by asked him if he did not want a job, and finally en-gaged him to go to a farm a little below the city and dig a ditch. The man proceeded to the work next morning, was permitted to dig six feet of the ditch and was then shot and thrown into the ex-iavation. The Mormons brag brutally that they had made a d—d Gentile dig his own grave, and say that they in-tend, in the future, to make a good many others do the same thing. Last November, six young men from California ar-rived at Salt Lake with the intention of coming out to Camp Scott. They were arrested at Box Elder, robbed of their horses, imprisoned for some time and in December were released, and four of them started for California again, under a Mormon guard, consisting of PORTER, ROCKWELL, JOHN MURDOCK and two others, ostensibly to protect them from the Indi-ans. Mr. JAMES went with them as they were com-ing out of the city. Rockwell told him he would take them as fair as Salt Creek, whence the "boys" in that direction would take care of them. JAMES no-ticed that the Californians all wore red morocco leg-gings of a peculiar shape and make, three pair of which were subsequently seen upon the limbs of Mormons. A few days afterwards, PINTULS and ARO-PEEN, another Ute Chief, met a Mormon wagon go-ing from Salt Creak towards the mountains. Suppos-ing from the blood they saw dripping from the body of the wagon that it. contained beef, AROPEEN stopped it, threw up a quilt which lay there, and discovered ; the dead bodies of two men, whom he recognized at once as two of those he had seen going in the other direction with PORTER ROCKWELL a few days before AROPEEN asked why they killed Americans, and de-manded some of the "plunder," of which he got a part, consisting of clothing. He then proceeded to Salt Creek, and accused BISHOP BIGLER of murdering Americans. BISHOP did not deny the fact, but justi-ified his conduct. The Indians subsequently learned that the four Californians went as far as Sevier River, where they were attacked by Mormons in am-bush. Two were killed on the spot, and two escaped for the time and went back to Salt Creek, where they were also murdered. These last were those whose bodies the Indians saw. There is scarce a doubt that two of the party were the brothers AIKEN, of Cali-fornia. In February last Mr. JAMES had an interview with KANOSH, the Chief of the Paravant band of Indians, who have for some time past been willing instruments of BRIGHAM YOUNG'S murderous purposes in the South. KENOSH was on his way to Salt Lake. JAMES offered his hand, and was refused, the Chief saying he would not shake hands with an American, as they call all Gentiles. He was dressed at the time in civi-lized clothing, which JAMES identified as lately be-longing to a teamster, He asked KENOSH where he got his clothes. KENOSH replied that he had killed an American, and that he had taken the clothes from his body, and, to prove his assertion, showed a hole in the side of the coat, and another in the pants, made by the bullets of his rifle, when he shot his victim KENOSH proceeded to say that he had killed a good many Americans, and had plenty of wagons and cat-tle, and $1,500 in money, which he had taken from Americans, of whom he intended to kill all he could find. He said BRIGHAM was his father now, that BRIG-HAM talked good to him, and was the only man that he would listen to. PINTULS having requested JAMES to ask BRIGHAM for some ammunition, JAMES preferred the request to BRIGHAM's interpreter, DIMICK HUNTINGDON, who said, "Why don't PINTULS do as KENOSH does, and then he won't be begging all the time. He is an old fool, and won't listen to what BRIGHAM says. If he did he would be better off. There's KENOSH, who does as BRIGHAM tells him, and has all he wants—wagons, horses, cattle, and $1,500 in cash. You tell him from me, that if he will turn out with all his band, as KENOSH has done, in two months he will be a ric man." JAMES related the answer to PINTULS, who said he would prefer to beg rather than follow such advice. But I must bring this already long letter to a close. I have only one more important fact to announce, and that is, that up to this time, General Johnston has no orders preventing his march upon Salt Lake as soon as Colonel HOFFMAN arrives with his supply train and Captain MARCY gets in from New-Mexico with the animals he was sent to purchase. The latter will undoubtedly be hereby the middle of next week-and unless the Peace Commissioners can show good reason for delay, the army will probably be in motion again by the 15th or 20th of June. General JOHNSTON has no doubt that Echo Cañon can readily be forced, but no movement will be made without a thorough knowledge of all the passes into the city, and of the safest method of carrying them. The general be-lief is that no arrangement can he made with BRIG-HAM YOUNG by which he will consent to withhold the incendiary from the city whenever the army ap-proaches it. The chances are that the army will find the city in ashes, and it remains for the people of the Government or the United States to say whether they will rest, content with that consummation, or whether the Mormon traitors shall be pursued until arrested and punished, or driven from our shores ; and until every helpless woman who desires it, may be rescued from the living death and corruption of this priestly charnel house. Lieut. TALLMADGE, of whose arrest I notified you in a note from Laramie, I believe is exonerated from the charges preferred against him and General JOHN STON has sent to Washington, withdrawing the charges preferred against him to the Department. S. Mormon Fanaticism—Letter from a Mormon Woman to Her Parents in New-Jersey. The following letter from a Mormon woman in Salt Lake City, addressed to her parents in New-Jer-sey, has been handed us for publication. It was writ-ten on the eve of departure from Salt Lake City for the southern settlements, and is curiously descrip-tive of the writer's unbounded faith in Mormonism and her natural regrets at leaving her home: GREAT SALT LAKE CITY, May, 1858. MY DEAR FATHER AND MOTHER : I feel that I must write you another letter before I leave my home, as I do not know when or where I may get another op-portunity of writing to you. I suppose that you have heard by this time, through your papers, that we are leaving our beautiful valley,—to go we know not whither. When first my beloved husband announced to me that it was decided that we should leave, I felt a ping at my heart. I looked out at my little flower-garden, the work of our own hands, and then around me, in-side my little cottage, on the few little comforts which we had accumulated through hard labor; then I saun-tered into the little room which I had prepared for your reception this season. I must abandon them all, and the hope of meeting father and mother and the rest of the family. And last, but not least, I looked upon our little ones, and my grief knew no bounds. In my rebellious heart I felt to say, I cannot expose my little ones to the trials of a wandering life, and ah, horror! perhaps the scalping-knife of the Indians, for we know that the soldiers are bribing them. I fancy I can hear you both say, "Is not Mor-monisim worth all these sacrifices, and even our lives?" Yes, my dear father and mother, it is. But you also know how very fond of home I am, and my love for my husband and children knows no bounds; and I felt that to see those dear ones suffering again, as did before we had a home, was more than my strength could bear; but all this was the struggle of a few hours only. When I began to reflect upon my con-duct, I felt truly ashamed of my weakness. How often had I, in bearing my testimony, said that I was willing to make any sacrifice for the work of the Lord, and when He was going to put me to the test should I turn like a coward and say, "I cannot do it ?" And then my rebellious heart would turn again and say, "Is it not your own house and land ? did you not toil hard enough to get it ? did you not sell all your trinkets, clothing—everything, in fact, that you possessed, to get the adobes to build it? and why should you give it up to a bard of robbers, or, in other terms, to President BUCHANAN'S troops, which are the same?" But still I struggled and conquered. I then made up my mind that if I had to die, it should be in the path of duty ; and when my husband returned in the even-ing, I could talk calmly to him of preparations for our departure. I next thought that, as I was now so strong, it was my duty to go and see ELLEN and JAMES; but what was my surprise, on reaching their house, to find them all ready to start, and when I asked ELLEN if she did not feel a little bad at leaving her home, (for you know that she had one of the most comfortable in the valley,) she said, with a smite, "These things are not ours; they are the Lord's, and if he requires me to leave them, I am ready." I am, sure you will think her a most noble woman, as I do. * * * * Where we are going, I know not; but I this I do know, that if it were not for our own ulti-mate good, we should not be permitted to leave these valleys. Go where you will, you will see the Saints making cheerful preparations for their departure, and a word of comfort on their lips for their neighbors ; no? with- standing which, a keen observer might perceive a tear glistening in the eye of some of the stoutest among us. We have enough to eat, and for that we are thankful. Our clothing is nearly all worn out and it is not possible to buy any more here. If we had heeded the counsel of Brother BRIGHAM a little sooner, we should now have had an abun-dance of clothing ; but we are like children; we have to learn by experience. I think sometimes that ii you could see me, you might enjoy a hearty laugh at my expense, but, fortunately for me, I have now no mirror, and therefore my own appearance does not annoy me much. I still have in my possession an article for daily wear, which once bore the ap-pellation of "a dress," but so transformed is it that it would be difficult for a casual, observer to decide which was the original dress piece. My husband also wears a coat of many colors. As for buying shoes and stockings, they are quite out of the question. We should have been out of this unpleasant state, if our enemies would only have left us alone, for we all began to see the necessity of manufacturing our own goods. We have already made some very good flan-nel here. We have twelve sheep of our own, two cows, three horses, two of which were working on the farm; the other was my own private property, made a present to me by my husband. [A postscript to this letter, dated at an encamp-ment thirty five miles from Salt Lake City, adds :] We are now 35 miles from the city, and living un-der our tents. I have nothing particular to add, save I that my little JOSEPH is sick, but I have faith that he will get well. We do not trouble about him, nor about ourselves; we will all get through our trouble some day. It is good to feel that the Lord is for us, though men be against us. I am resigned to my fate. It is all for the best. Your affectionate daughter, G— R—.

Michaels Restaurant
Online Reservations
This place is simply Amazing! Great food, great service, friendly staff, excellent Key West decor and atmosphere. I will definitely recommend it to everyone I know that are planning a trip to that area. After trying some of the competition down by the pier, (we were not impressed.) It was very refreshing to end the vacation with a restaurant of their quality and caliber. We have traveled to many cities and countries, and this is definitely one of the best. What a Gem!
We are from NYC where the choice of restaurants are vast and diverse. We have been going to Key west for several years now and Michael's have always been a favorite place to go. If you want to have a break from the seafood, the pork chop dish is fantastic. Their mashed potatoes rival those at Benoit. Also, I would pick Michael's over Café Sole, anytime, both in food and value. If you are reading this review, I really hope you give it a try. We will be coming back again and again.
It was a quiet night at the restaurant as it was after the main season. Waiter attentive, food great and the Volcano worth having as the dessert.
We come to KW once a year. We always go to michaels as it is one of our favorite places. It is tucked away in a neighborhood that you would never expect to find a gourmet restaurant. Food is always delicious Service is attentive and friendly. This time my partner had a crab stuffed lobster while I had snapper. Both were amazing. We love their goat cheese beet salad. It is presented in a way that we have never seen and is delicious. The creme brûlée finished off our meal in smooth creamy style We will be back to Michaels on our next trip
The food was terrific with a uniquely Key West flavor. I had the Paella and my wife had the Filet. We both really enjoyed our meals. Was a little warm outside seating with barely noticeable fans but not terrible for Fla in August.
Our second trip to this Key West find. This is a neighborhood restaurant that is successful because of work of mouth referrals. The food is outstanding and the service is impeccable. The selection ranges from surf to turf with creative preparation a hallmark. There is indoor and outdoor dining. Both visits we have sat in the outdoor gardens. Even on a warm night, there is plenty of ventilation and we were very comfortable. One of the finest places we have dined in Key West!
What a darling gem !!!! We loved everything about our experience. YEAH !!!
My wife and I were in Key West for our 21st wedding anniversary. This was our night before the BIG night. Had done some online research as most people do now adays.The hotel confirmed our good choice which had been booked days earlier with Open Table. Michaels is a very nice indoor dining with an outdoors option.
Amazing Steaks and Dinner was a great nice , service was excellent.
We have worked our way around Key West over the years. Many good ones have come and gone.... The food was great, the service excellent, great ambiance.... Short wine list but we got by.
We wanted to try a restaurant in Key West that we haven't been to before, and a few of the others at our hotel mentioned Michaels. So we made reservations there and the food, as well as the service, did not disappoint. I had scallops for an appetizer and they were perfectly seared and seasoned. For my main course I had the hogfish, which was AMAZING. My friend had the veal chop, which was also incredibly delicious! (a few people at the hotel raved about Michaels' veal chop as well!) The atmosphere, service and food was among the best dining experiences I've had in Key West!
We were first time visitors wondering about this place and SCORE! It was fantastic! We were in Key West for a birthday weekend and this place nailed it. Bottom line, if you are looking for a romantic/boys night out/girls night out, this is the place for dinner in Key West. They have outdoor seating and of course, indoor seating. A bit on the high side for $$$ (i.e. spent $160 for two, 2 drinks a piece, main course [I had the most expensive dish], and dessert.) Worth it. I got the molten lava cake for dessert AND they brought a FREE key lime pie slice for the Birthday girl after reserving through open table. Couldn't ask for more, except for a free dinner, but that wasn't possible. ;) Highly recommend.
This was a great find thanks to Open Table. I had meat loaf, a very simple meal but it was outstanding.
Always love Micheals very quite place inside while outside is a little more lively
This is the best place in Key West to get a great steak. Our server was fantastic and super fast. Our steaks were cooked perfectly with just enough seasoning. Oh, and they Don't use butter to hide the flavor of my steak. They also featured my favorite wine that night. Concannon Crimson and Clover. The red velvet cheesecake was the perfect ending. We will most defiantly be back.
Love Michael's- live here and know if I want a good meal- go on over to Margaret St .and see Michael. Dinner will always be delightful !!!!!
We have been Michael's a dinner stop on our annual trip to Key West for years. This year a received a recommendation for their veal chop. I wish I had tried it years ago. It was excellent!!! That is something I will have again.
As we visited Michael's just before the start of the high season the restaurant was far from full and all the better for that. Great food, atmosphere and attentive staff made this a memorable night out. An eclectic mix of fellow dinners added to the general atmosphere of the restaurant. It is now on the list for the next time that we visit Key West.
A must go to restaurant when down in KW. Have visited this dining spot on several occasions and have always been pleased. Highly recommend the veal chop.
Went with a colleague and shared charcuterie and oyster apps, both were excellent. Came for a steak and a nice red wine and was not disappointed. Veal chop and steak were cooked to temp and presentation mouth watering. Out of my wine choice but was offered an excellent substitute. Too full for desserts but a nice after dinner drink with an excellent server. Your choice of indoor or outdoor seating but a great key west stop.
Multiple people (tourist and locals) told us to dine at Michael's....food and service were great.
Dining room was a little bright and could have used more atmosphere like the patio, bar area and private room that is available.
Ate here on 10/20/13. It was just as good as the last time we ate here--in 2002! We ate outside on the patio with the fountain nearby. Very romantic. Our server was friendly and did a great job. The food was first class as always.We started with the beefsteak bleu and the cocoanut shrimp. I had the Veal Saltimbocca and my husband had the filet. Both were very good. For dessert we split the Volcano. It was all excellent! We will be back here on our next visit for sure!
Michael's has never let me down with their attention to detail and exquisite fare. I have been there three times now and have always ordered the scallops and brie appetizer. The scallops are perfectly seared and practically melt in your mouth. I have been all three times with my boyfriend and we always end up splitting and entree. The chefs in the kitchen are nice enough to split the entree onto two plates and keep the lovely presentation of the food. This past time we had the snapper with artichoke hearts and crab on top. There was no part of this dish that I did not want to end! I recommend that you try to sit outside if possible. Michael's has great cocktails and would even be worth a visit just to enjoy a drink at the bar.
We had a good time and food was good. We had to ask the waitress for the lite menu.
We enjoyed Michael's so much, we will definitely be back every time we visit Key West. We had some of the best food we've ever had there.
Michael's has the best steak I've had in the Keys and better than almost anywhere else, for that matter. Unlike most "ala-carte" steak houses, the vegetable and starch components were included in the price, which was high, but very fair considering the quality. The restaurant is tucked away in a residential neighborhood four blocks from Duval St. and looks like someone's house, so it's a little hard to find, but well worth the effort. The staff were very friendly and accomodating and not pretentious in the the least, which I really liked and the old jazz singers like Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett playing quietly in the background was a nice touch to the ambience. I recommend that you make the effort to find this fine establishment.
This was our first time at Michael's, and we will definitely go back. Our group had the crab cakes, filet, and volcano dessert. Everything was delicious!!!! Jeff was our waiter. He did a great job.
We have been visiting Key West for over 12 years and always make sure we have dinner at least one night at Michaels. A few years back they added a "lighter fare" menu which lets you enjoy just the right portion of their popular dishes. The staff is always courteous and make the visit enjoyable.
We were in Key West on vacation and Michael's was recommended as a local favorite. We tried it on a Wednesday night and were so impressed with the food and the whole experience that we returned on our last night on the island!
our food was meticulously prepared and delicious to consume.BEST RESTAURANT IN KEY WEST
The food was excellent and service was exceptional. Dennis did not make us want for anything.
We loved our dinner at Michaels!! From the cocktails to the dessert (rum cake, yum!), everything was perfect!!!
When they heard we were newlyweds, they brought us a slice of cheesecake with a huge sparkler type thing in top and said it was on the house. The food was excellent as well
Second time dinning at Michaels. We had a great time.
I have been dining at this restaurant for many years and you can count on great service and prefectly prepared food at all times. We have never been disappointed.
We spent our last evening in key west at Michaels. It was a great choice. The restaurant has a wonderful ambiance and terrific service. My wife had the swordfish, which looked fabulous. I had the NY strip which was very good. Michaels is a solid choice for a quiet dinner, with a vibrant feel.
Made reservations on line and got an immediate reply with times available for dinner that evening. As usual, the food was delicious and the service and ambience was delightful. The Crème Brule and Key Lime Pie desserts are to die for! We ordered from the "Lite Menu" which was available until 7:30 PM, and the portions were perfect. We have designated this restaurant as our go to place for a "special evening".
Our knowledgeable and friendly waitress offered some very enticing specials for the evening of our visit but we opted for the two items on the main menu which were classified as "Master's Chef Classic Peoples Choice Award" winners. My wife went with the "Michael's Veal Chop" and I went for the 8 ounce version of the "Filet Al Forno". Both were excellent, perfectly prepared and presented. I sincerely wish I could remember our waitress's name because I would directly complement her here for her choice of a Pinot Noir that perfectly complemented my filet. Some might think Michael's is a bit on the expensive side but from where we were sitting it was a great value.
A slight problem with table request at beginning of dinner from hostess; however, did not mar entire meal. Waitstaff is attentive and makes suggestions. Food is delicious. Would definitely recommend Michael's.
Michael's was recommended by our B&B. The menu had soemething for everyone, service was outstanding , everything was delicious.
Great steak, very good service, and a pleasant atmosphere. And best of all, better prices than big-city steak houses. This was our third trip to Key West and our third trip to Michael's. So far it has never disappointed.
Michaels is the best restaurant in Key West, according to this resident of 13 years. I love the ambiance, the staff and the food. It is very popular with locals and vistiors alike. A local couple, Melanie and Michael, own it and have attracted a steady staff of attentive, friendly and professional people. I always end up talking to interesting diners when I go here. And, I always have a great meal.
Michaels is one of Key West's best finds. In 10 years I've never been disappointed dining here. The food is always consistent, the service amazing.
This was out second time to Michaels and we again loved it! The wait staff is wonderful and the food is spectacular. We would recommend it to everyone and actually recommended it to quite a few people at the resort we stayed at.
As we continue to visit KW twice a year, one of our must eat restaurants is Michaels. We always have great food and service. You need to add this to your must eat list for KW.
as always this restaurant was great come here everytime im in key west
Michaels is a great find, off the beaten path. If it were not for its listing on Open Table, we would not even known about this very special restaurant, hidden away on a back street, but only a couple of blocks from the hustle and bustle of Duval Street in Old Town Key West. And despite it's deceiving exterior, the interior is charming (we sat outside near the fountain, which we would highly recommend). My wife and I would enthusiastically recommend the food, service and ambience, which were all first class, for Key West or anywhere else.
The food, service and location were excellent. The only downside was a rather loud table of adults and kids that ruined an otherwise superior dining experience. We went to Latitudes the day before and Michaels was the hands down winner.
We had an incredible meal and great service from Robert who served and suggested excellent selections. The Filet al forno was as good as it was advertised and the hogfish was cooked perfectly. We have no complaints for our entire dinner and will come back soon. Thanks, Robert for a wonderful experience at Michael's!

The footbed is padded making the shoe comfortable; however, I would recommend ordering 1/2 size up. I did based on the other review, it was mentioned that the shoe was a bit tight around the toes. Fabric shoes will not stretch as well as leather. Cute ballet flat. Very vibrant colors. Great for spring.

Really cute shoes! Not the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn, which is about what I expect for flats. I put a thin pair of insoles in mine to give them some padding. Sizing seems pretty accurate - I got my normal size and they fit fine. If you're between sizes I'd go a size up since they're elastic.

The shoes fit great but the navy color looked too faded. Also, when I received the product it looked as though it was scratched up. The quality is not that great if it gets scuffed up so easily. Unfortunately, I will have to return them.

Internet, calendar expected to create intense holiday shipping seasonThe Associated Press | October 27,2013AP Photo
A United Parcel Service driver unloads packages from a truck and arranges them for delivery in New YorkCity. UPS will hire 55,000 U.S. seasonal workers to help with an expected increase in volume over the 2013 holiday shopping season.ATLANTA United Parcel Service expects this holiday season to be busier than last, thanks to the growing popularity of online shopping. And more intense, thanks to the calendar.
The worlds biggest package delivery company said it foresees peak season daily volume rising 8 percent this year.
UPS, based in Atlanta, predicts that it will pick up more than 34 million packages on the busiest day, Monday, Dec. 16. UPS predicts deliveries will peak at 29 million the next day.
The company plans to hire 55,000 U.S. seasonal employees to work as drivers, helpers, package sorters, loaders and unloaders. Thats the same number as last year, but this years group may feel a lot busier.
Besides the increased volume, there are just 26 shopping days between Thanksgiving and Christmas, six fewer than last year, making it the most compressed holiday shopping season since 2002.
UPS expects that Cyber Monday on Dec. 2 will see a 10 percent increase in pickup volume, surpassing 32 million packages.
UPS smaller rival, FedEx, said it expects Dec. 2 to be its busiest day of the holiday season. FedEx expects to carry more than 22 million shipments that day. FedEx expects to hire slightly more than the 20,000 seasonal workers that it added last year.
The National Retail Federation predicts that retail sales in November and December will rise 3.9 percent over last year to $602 million $738 per shopper.

The count was about 28. The rest were BISD employees, board members, and media.
28 members of the public showed up for the BISD redistricting public forum held at the West Brook cafeteria on the (alternate) 7-0 plan.
The deadline for the May election is approaching. Preparations must be made. It must be done before March 1st. Less than a month from now.
Most of the questions and comments from the audience were about the 5-2 election scheme rejected by the Department of Justice late last year. The same questions have been asked before The answers didn't change. No clarity was gained. 5-2? 7-0? The same old fight. The same players.
Does the public really care?
It doesn't seem so. Of late it seems more like a battle of wills between a few select individuals with the rest of the city of Beaumont stuck in the middle.

The Celebration Store had its soft open on Thursday night, with exhibitors, VIPs, and Jedi Master level-badge holders getting a shot to pick up their Celebration merchandise.

Plus shirts, football/soccer gear, barware, and a visit from Admiral Ackbar?
Several of my fellow convention attendees enabled my shopping, and I escaped there with a ton of damage to my credit card bill. But I did show off my new Boba Fett messenger bag to Jeremy Bulloch!
