The news In another column, from Utah is very important Large numbers of Emigrants are leaving the southwestern part of Missouri for California. There is great excitement at Salt L.ike, and Brigham Young and the Mormons are driving eut the ' Gentiles," and defying the Uni ted States authorities. The U. S. Judge, Mar shal, Postmaster, and Surveyor General have left the Territory. Utah affairs are gettlug ripe. The Mormons presume on the delay otf the part of the U. S. Government, and Young appears to think he is the " Great Mogul " sure enough. IIu has gut to get off of those stilts. TROOPS FOR UTAH. It was reported that 2,500 troops were to march for Utah, some time ago. This was subsequently contradicted. Ion, the reliable correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, under date of the 6th inst says: " The military arrangements to support the U. S. authorities in Utah are completed. Twenty- flvo hundred men are already moving towarda the territory. Tbey will be followed by three or four hundred more." Democratic Republican Ticket for Cengresi.

The correspondence between1 threo American firms at Canton and Commodore Armstrong and Wm. Parker, the U. S. Minister, is published in the New York Evening Post; " The former asked the commodore to protect local steamers bearing the American flag, alluding to the recent capture of two British steamers. The commodore replied that the force at his disposal would not peituit him. The firms forwarded the correspondence to Mr. Parker, with a protest against the commo dore's action, with a request that the matter be communicated to the government at Washington, to which he acceded." " THE GUANO ISLANDS. A correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, writing from Washington, says : " The Attorney General has given an official opinion relative to the pro prietary interest of the United States in the new ly discovered guano islands. Congress, be says, may terminate the possession of the discoverer when it pleases. Under the existing laws the discoverer is the nation's tenant at will, and that will to be expressed by Congress whenever the nation may desire to pnt an end to the estate granted. And the law fobids tho President, be fore cerUin conditions are complied with, to de clare any island as appertaining to the United States as aforehaud act, according to his con viction of public duty." QUITE A FLURRY. Tho Editor of tho Washington (Penn.) Tribunt has the following announcement, indicative of quite a flurry in the moral world : " We feel it to be a great undertaking, one that requires more than ordinary nerve but there ia a lowering villaiuv in our miItt that must and aball be overthrown ; though, like Sainpaon, we pcriah curself hi iu ruins." But listeu : " Conspiracies, dark, damnable and bloodjf, will bo our theme: and aci nndrels. cool, calcula ting, and cunning w ill be our game and the sport w our pencil. ne then elves notice that he will " open three Seals," the first of which " will develoo an Infa mous betrayal of confidence, a prostitution of an honorable profession, the acta and frail of aa unrestrained adultery, a aeries of crimes too re volting to be told, a conspiracy to take life, and the commission or a species or murder itself." The above is only the preface to the forth com ing work. What may we not expect in the work iUelfl ...... ANOTHER ELOPEMENT.

The Jacksonville 'Republican, says : !We regret to learn that Gen. MacRae, the backbone of the Fernandina enterprisehea withdrawn and remov ed his bands back to North Carolina, to engage In the construction of a road there." iX ? . WASHINGTON RIOT PUBLIC MEETING. On the night of the first of June a large meet ing was held in front of the City' Hat!, in Wash ington City, in regard to the riot The report says: ' - The speakers were Geo. McCalla, Dr. Clayton. Councilman Lloyd, all of the American parly, who spoke of I ho killing of persons by the marine on the day nf election aa a cruel, cowardly and bloo dy massacre of the innocent ; and of the conduct of the executive authoritiesa a trampling under foot of the saereod rights of citizens ana of law and order. - - " ' ' ' . -. - Ourreaders, who are acquainted with the facts, cannot fail io bo amazed at the audacity with which "the Speakers" accuse those who weie io tlie exercise of their duty In the preservation of law and order, and In suppressing an outbreak that would liave resulted in a wide massacre had it not been checked by the lawful authorities. These unscrupulous nion? in the hoe of gain to their party, incite their fellow citizens to a repe tition of their crimes, by endeavoring to throw odium upon the marines and the President, by too uae of the most transparent falsehoods by lies, known to be sqjcb,, by the wfcoh, ''' '. These are t ho "sort of chTps we-, week, who invoke the wild new pf the storiu, but will themselves tako care to slink iuto some cov ert for safety. - v"' - ; The report continues: Mr. Lloyd's advice to be prepared for the next attack elicited sKntaoeons cheers of approba tion. At the same time he invoked them to pre seive the peace. A committee of te from rack ward was appointed to prepare suitable resole lion and call an adjourned meeting after the lo questa of all tbe victims had been concluded. The incitement to assume a warlike position and be prepared for the next aUack, has a ccm forttbie placebo by an invocation to "preserve the peace." The hypocri.-y of this last injunction tnust bo observable by the moat obtuse percep lion. The words "next attack," should read another assault" upon peaceable and unoflcud ing adopted citizens, while in the discharge of a right and a duty pertaining to the elective fran chise ; and to carry out more fully the reelings f political hatred, engendered by a war of races, and to consummate the same io violence and blood. This ia the true wording of the villainous sentiment expressed bj this fellow Lloto. ' Our leader know that it is our practice to speak respectfully of political opponents; but we cannot do so, iu justice to truth and honesty when w bare to deal with the unblushing ruffi anism avowed by the persons named above. The repot t continues : ; l V Inquests have been held to day in twe casea. Three witnesses swore that the order given !o the marines to fire was by Mayor Mgrodr after the swfYel waa taken Iroiu the rioteia. Prelimi nary measures have been taken to bring I be mat te r to a judicial investigation. The mayor's conduct was severely condemned by lb') meeting to night, which finely separated with mingled cheers and groan. Tbe comniudity is still in a feterisb condition on the subject of the riot. If the Msyor ordered the troops to fire he did well. The marines wvru, obliged to be ia the po sition they occupied. Was it expected oflho.se in command that they should Inhumanly require these brave and innocent men, while in the die chargo of their duty, to stand still and permit a murderous gang to assail them with deadly wea pons 1 Would there be any sense or reason oi justice in thist If tbeie was anj blame on tie part cf those engaged in protecting the lives of their fellow citizens, if was their tarUines in the performance of their duty their misplaced hu manity iu supposing that it was proper to tempo rize with wretches who bad thrown themselves outside the pale of civil jurisdiction, and had commenced assault and murder upon tho peacea ble citizens who had a rijht to expect protection from the Executors of the laws that tbey were disposed to obey. These people will find they are pis ji tig a losing game who expect to make r olitical capital ont of the lata atrocities. The whole country, save those who are bound to speak the language of wicked political masters, will applaud the officer w bo conducted the affair so humanely anl give honor to oor illuatiiooa President, because be promptly discharged Lia duty, by responding to the call of the Mayor of the City of Washington.

' Correspondence cf the Missouri Democrat. Arrival vf Judge Stiles and G: neral Burr From Utah Tke Mormons. , Steamer David Tatum Missouri River, My 30, 1867. J I left Leavenworth thia afternoon' for Quiodaro on the fast sailing steamer Dar id Tatnra , and am of stesming it down river. Before leaving I had a very interesting interview witb Gen. Burr and Judge Stiles, both of whom have just arrived from Utah. '. Their accounts of affaira in that Territory are very exciting. The Mormons durlug th put winter -have been perpetrating many outrages upon the Geuirie and the United states sutbori tiea. Those gentlemen confirm tbe accounts fur nished the press by Judge Drutnmoiid, and say that it is worse now in Salt Lake City than it was at the lime .Drummond left. Several have been murdered aud many robberies committed by the Mormons during last winter. Tho laws and courts of the Uuited Statea are repudiated by ' order of Gov. Young, whose will ia supreme in that section of our country, and the authorities of the general government treated very Indig nantly. Judge St lea' court bad been competed to adjourn' in consequence of the mobocratic spirit manifested in opfionhion to it by devoted follower- of Young, rei.dei ii.g it iniposMble to isxne a proci-ss in Utah cniaiiatingrom the dis trict courts established, there hy act of Congress. The Mormons claim d exclusive jurisdictiou and repudiated tbe idea that government baa any authoiity in'that Territory iu any manner what ev r. The Sorveyor-General had been - threatened with violence several limes, audat last forced to leave for safety. , Judge S:i!ea could not execute the fuuctioiia of his office, and .concluded to visit Washington to aee what conld be duue. Mrs. Farnham, of Salt Lake City, bad been threatened, and compelled to I' ave. and she came on in the company whi.h arrived yesterday. The.ciime alleged against bur waa "boarding Gentiles," which waa contrary to the witl of the Governor. The Mormons i xprets Ibemielrcs determined to reslct to tbe death every attempt of the guner algovernment toestalilisb any authority iu Utah That was their country, and no power on earth shall interfere with them.". Tbcv had a code of laws made by themselves and they abould enforce them, establish aud maintain their own courta in spite of all opposition. Thia is illus trating the principle of ''squatter sovereignly" with a vciigrance, aud I wonder If it is in accor dance with the Ideas of Douglas on that subject. A Mormon by the name ofW. J. Appledy, clerk of the Supreme Conrt, waa the author of several leters sent on the Statea and published, which pretended to give a correct account of affaira in Utah, during tbe many chargea made against Young and bis followers, and signed "A Gen tile." : His communications are Dot reliable, as be ia one of the principal men in Salt Lake Cit J devo ted to tbe Mo'imon church, and all of bis pre tensions of being a -Gentile" were humbug. Judge Stiles and Gen. Bnrr consider It abso lutely recessary for tbe government to take tbe moat stringent measures for tbe restoration of 'law and Order" in that territory, tbe inhabi tants of which were in open rebellion against the laws and authorities of tho United Stales, and unless something wasdoue no one could foretell the evil that would result from delay. Lite and property were not safe, and iujured parties nave no weans of oblaiaing redress. Young was gover nor and supremo dictator one of tbe greatest tyrants thai ever lived. His will is law, ' from which there is no appeal. SOMETHING WORTH KNOWING. Tbe New Orleans Crescent, adverting to the poisooous adulteration and swindles in the manu facture of spirituous liquors, now-a-days, sensi bly concludes : " "Abstinence from so called liquor will soon become a necessity with those who desire to live and enjoy health. Tbe social enp is. Indeed, a poisonous cap in the selalter days. With strych nine in the whiskey, and drugs and vitriol in the brandy, to give it 'body,' 'flavor,' and 'coloiing,' tbe man who quags m&cb of either must be 'made of oak, and copper-fastened' to stand it long.

It was a scene to melt the hardest heart, as the mother stood with her child in hei arms and offered npprajer to God to turn the heart t.f her unfaitliful husband and th- un natur al father of lr r children apain totliu f.inii'y which he had ao cruelly deserted. He maintained a stolid indifF-retiCe treating her nupplicaiinus with contempt, and even spuming her from liiiu with violence- only to be ftund iu a savage. At first be told her she could not stay under the same roof with him, but at leiig'b conseutcd ibat abe might remain for the night. When be waa abown to her room, she rose np almost insane with agony and ber exes streaming with tears, and extended her arms to meet him when be turned upon her with a aour aud angrv look, and bade her in a surly tone ; "Sit do u sit down!" The wretched wife bun-ting iuto a Si of uncontrollable grief, inquired, "What have have I ever done that yon should treat me aud my dear children in this manner 1" His only reply waa' "l dou't love yon aud can't be happy wiib you; jon must forget me, and you cau Hid someone else to love you." Thia brutish proposition threw her iuto a fit of wild and almost maniacal agony. He refused to receive ber and treat ber as a wife, but threw himself witb hia clothes on, across the loot of the bed, and iu tho midst of bur groans, criea and toars feti asleep and slept soundly till niort.ing, when betook tbe cara au4 left her at ihe hotel.

SAMUEL R. BUNTING. April 3D. 19. HoUoKay's Pills, in spite of tbe prejudices of medical martinets, have found their way into the leading hospitals and dispensaries of Europe, and are now the established family medicine of all classes iu the United States. Upon the stomach and liver, which prepare and temper tbe blood, upon the organs which vitalize it in the process of respiration, and upon the excretory vessels, which discharge from the system the res id i urn not required for the purposes of nutrition, these pills operate in almost miraculous manner, regu lating, invigorating, cleansing, ai-.d fortifying the w hole physique. In bilious disorders, dyspepsia, asthma, diarrhoea, dysentery, sick headache, con st ipt ion, general debility, and com plaiuta pecu liar to females, their effect is astonishing.
