Tho Mormon War.
The "Washington correspondent of llie Journal
of Commerce furnishes the following out- i
line of the plan of operations for the conduct !
of the war in Utah during the coining spring ;
The Administration has abandoned the id?a
of raising volunteers for service in Utah, weather
on the I'ncitie side, or on this side. The
judgment of military officer* of experience, is
Hgainstit. 1 learn that Col. Johnson will certainly
move from I'ort Scott t o Salt. I.alio City
'< curly in this spring, upon the arrival of the
smiles, horse?, and other supplies which Capt.
Alnrcy is conducting to him. If no accidenthappen
to M a icy's train, he will reach Fort
. Scott by the lirst of June, or before, llis foree j
is too small for an escort.?only for! v men. 1
jiut H is surmised Hint. <' >!. Johnson will send 1
back ft force to meet him on ) is way.
lint without waiting for reinforcements, Col. J
Johnson is certainly, as I have stated, to march |
fin-Salt Lake in Juno. About forty or lit'y |
mill's of the way will lie perilous ami lnbori- j
ous in She extreme. 'Iherc is no way, as I ]
lonrn, to avoid the Echo Canon, whieh is twe:i- I
ly miles long. This isa narrow ravine between '
x steep mountain', from whieh boulders may he
c thrown down, tilling the narrow road. All j
the obstructions whieh the Mormons may i
place there must be removed before the army |
and its long train can pass. There are Canons ]
of three or four miles length to pass.
14. is possible that, if the Mormons determine
vlo'resist the march of the troops, they may i
give the expedition a-great deal of trouble, by j
reducing those in front to great straits. Appro- |
\iiir #!*.* 1 3 * * '
, c ....... in.; r.M'vuiivi' uns aeiermineo 10 ;
send to their relief the t.wenty-fi v? hundred
men in Kansas, under Gen. Harney. Those
troops will lie organized I'm- the expedit ion, mid
"ivill he ready to march in a,month, if Congress
will appropriate Hie money for their supplies.
At least two million?) arc wanted immediately
for the purpose!.
From Fori. Leavenworth to Salt. Lake City
the distance is twelve hundred mile.', and the :
troops can make the march, with their train, i
in three months. It is not probable that they
will he enabled to commence the march before
the 1st of May ; and they may, if unopposed
l>y n powerful enemy, teach Salt Lake by the
lst.of August.
If both expeditions reach their place of destination,
safe and sound, the Mormons will no
dottht quietly submit to your laws,?at least
f..~> i --
iui. mc juusciiv?or retire in disgust.

one, which should enlist the sympathies and
call forth the attendance of the whole l>?s?trict.

We fear, says the Carolinian, that the injury
received, the other day, by this venerable and
eminent gentleman, wad more serious than nt
first represented. We understand that the
ear in which he was, was tossed down a bank
of fifteen or twenty feet high, and was turned
over twice. The Judge's head was a good deal
cut in several places, but his severest injury is

The general conclusion in. that. affairs will a
gradually improve, and that \vhil? there is lit.- t.
tie enuse of complaint, there is uiueli in the as- !
pec! of the future to afford jrrutinds for hope i
and encouragement. The depression in the I *'
price of the raw material has had one effect. : e
in dissipating the anxiety that, has heretofore ' ?
existed as to a continued supply from this eoun- j
try. We now hear lit tie upon the subject. ln-< "

urcAter part of all *lie imports, in bulk as well

I. That cotton is cjrovn in the United States I ft
exclusively by slave labor. j ()
5. Thnttwu thirds. at least, of the slave population
oft.be United States.are employed in i c'!
raisini* cotton for exportation. w
(>. Tliat of e?>U>-n thus raised for exportation , t<
about two-thirds in quantity, and more tlian 1

more than four-fifths in value is, on an aver j tl

we walked otY pretty fast to get our morns
out of the mattress .inarl. We brought, up
. the new Custom House just as the mechanics

his is n splendid building of granite and marie,
exhibiting architectural skill and taste, in j
ustrial energy, and constructive powers of j
an. The building is progressing to j

After Mixer's good breakfast, we went to see j
le Anatomical Museum then *ti exhibition.? j
umiliar ns we have been with such things, this !
cltibition was to us n treat.; by genius and arstic
skill, the wax was made to represent the
au-animal, from the first almost inorganic
erm, to full development, in a way tlint. has
bvit been done before. The pathological poron
presented in truthful distinctness the reills
of vice in all its loathsome reality.
The rest of the day was spent in looking at.
te things exposed for show in different parts
f the city. In the ?:Vetiiinr we went. ?.? ?
urial, which spoke to us the vanity of nil
tini?3. Tin- briny tears rolled down the mant
checks of one mourner as the cold, heavy
irth fell on the coffin of the dead, hut once
ving anil beuevolent kinswoman. After tea
e went to a union meeting of the Unptist
hurches of Charleston ; the speaker was the
ev. Dr. Manly. At the c'o?e of the service
le Doctor, with a face beaming with henevo.
ince and good will to his fellow man, walked
oin the tahlo and shook the ready extended
unds of the congregation, reminding us of
Iden times, when religion appeared to have a
ving form.
At a late hour we retired to our mattress,
a b
hen and where, we tried hard to fall into
that balmy sleep" which poets have mini;, "is
attires great restorer." Hut our feather-bed
ropensities prevailed, ami the olJchun-h clock

of time that hang heavy on onr hands
at time never lags, never recedes. The omnius
now at the door creAtes a little stir as bagage,
men and women arc beiwr stowed away,

j'r FloriJa; some 300 negroes, horses, wagons,
:c., <fc., were on board on what is called the
eck;<ft partition at midships separates this

meal. The roail is well hnilt. anil runs smoutl^ i
Our travel was ahont. ten miles an hour, mostly r
through poor, pine lands, generally llat. ainl , <
level. As this was the ?1 ry season, there was | I
hut little water anywhere to lie Been. We <
passed some stations that. looked a little business
like. At. ahont nine o'eloek p. m., we ar- i n
rived at. Stark, the present Iwad of the road* ^
and seventy-three miles from I'Vrnandina. We ' <
had here to meet the unpleasant inform.it.ion
tlint we wore about two or three V nirs too lute ! c
for the stage, which runs tri weekly to dailies- i
villo, Micnnopy, <?c. There was no hotel or I
house that we could stay; the stage agent was
cooking 11 is supper nt a fire in the won,Is, lie
hii<] good shelter for his horses ami n snug little
shanty to sleep in. Things looked a little like
we should have to enrnp out as h?-st. we could. r
At this time Mr. Brown presented himself to us, j '
saving we could slay with him, nhoiit half a "
mile otr. Our motto Iiuk always lu-vii, "any v
port in a storm so we readily accepted his 0
offer, iiml otr we went hag and haggage, hy a *
torch light carried hy our host. We soon had '
a good supper, made better hy sharpened up- *
pelites. Our hods were of a primitive order, 0
and a little harder than even friend Mixer's, of j ^
the Charleston. The Stage agdnt very kindly i I
tried to get us a conveyance next morning, hut ' i!
failed. We had then a good prospect of liav- . '
ing to stay with Mr. Brown till the stage would j *
return. AitiT dinner a wagon l>r<?uglit in n
load of cotton, belonging to Mr. I!ivor.?, seven ?
miles from Mieanopy. Col. M., 0110^ of oiir d
company, who had *een n lillle of the elcphnnt ''
in the Mexican war, soon st.ruiik tip u bargain P
with the negro driver to carry us t?m as fijr as '
his master's plantation for twelve dollar*.. Oat)
of our company, with a gentleman who find,, "
travelled with us, got off some hours before in J
a return carriage to Gainesville; bo there were 1;
only five *>f us to go in the wagon. We were '
ready, and snugly seated in the wagon, pleased | J
with our good luck?we could see the country, J <]
or stop unil shoot any thing in the way of! I
game that came in o-ir course. There is a glo- j t
rious independence in thin kind of travelling, j ?
tree irom tiie triiu.nH-I.-" or conventional rules of J.
stages, Railroad chm or steamboats. The lands }>
we pnssed over were much better, timber lar- v
yer; some patches of good hammock. The 11
peach trees wero in btoom am] looked well, p
much more healthy, and free from predator}' p
worms and injects than in Kouth Carolina.?
They are said never to miss fruit, in this conn- 6
try, maturing early and very fine. Peaches '
might be made very profitable, now thai ready S
anil qniek transit is attainable; they would af- '
ford remunerating prices in any of the cities; !
they could reach Charleston some weeks earlier j 0
than the surrounding country could produce [ [
tln-m. Each peach should ho enveloped in a
leaf of corn shuck and packed away ill boxes !
or barrels.
About nightfall \vc arrived at fort Ilarlee,
on the Santa Fe River, where wo staid all
night at a very good house. Early in the morning
we were tn route for the farm of Mr.
Hives, the owner of the wagon, nt.which place
wo arrived about three o'clock p. m. We

Senator Hammond's Speech.
Senator Hammond has recently delivered an
loqueut speech on Kansas and the future d?*
iny of the South, "whether in the Union or
lit Of till' ITfliftll " T!n? itnuonh . 1
villi marked attention. It. scorns to have beon
ailed forth by the declaration of Senator Seiard
that the battle against the S outh had
icon fought and won ; and that henceforth |
he North would take the (ioveriiment into its j
>wn hands, would reconstruct the Supreme j
.'emit, and control the foreign and domestic ,
ml icy of the country. In vjew* of that contiii
ency, the speaker thus measures the r?'spee I
ive resources of the sections in the event of a
^ para I ion :
The speech says the Mr retry is bold, vigor- us
and statesmanlike. Ot* the impression pro- "
ueod at Washington by its delivery, the follow- 1
ujj fro.*!i the intelligent and experienced eorrc?ohdent
of tlj^Bidiiiuorc Sun will give some 1

aunl attraction to-day. Gov. llaininortd, of 1
outh Carolina^ ninde a epeech full of power, i
Merest, a nf&?'?>gucnce. upon the subject of the ,
(ill for 4he^Vdn?ijjsioji of Kansits. After treatng
sonwfliinor points, the Senator considered '
ho main question which was at the bottom of 1
his imitation?that is slaverv. Tin j.itwl ii??
Icc.larntion of Mr. Seward that the battle had j
een fought unci won?or, in other word*, that
lie South was conquered, and notliinj? reninin cl
to be done but to prohibit all pout hern oclaiicios
of slave territory ahd remodel the Siiireme
Court to complete the destruction of the
'outh. The South would then be oppressed
villi protective tariffs for the internal iniprnveiient
system, fish bounties, and a stupendous!'
lational bank to control the fiuaneial power
f the country : and next, the North would
iroeeed to abolish slavery in the .States, do.
lie thought it proper that the question
hould be practically considered, lie was dia>oscd
to see the question settled as soon as pos
ible. He proceeded, therefore, to bring the
'outh and North faco to face, and couiparc
heir resources and means for the maintenaace
if a separate organization. lie drew a picnre
of the vast resources of the South, anil lior
ibilityto sustain herself as one of the must
trooperous and peaceful empires of the world.
Mr. Hammond spoke only about an hour,
md was listened to with profound atention.

The New York Herald, in r?'f<T/.iine ?n tlm
ecent announcement, of the New Orleans Dela
that theSluve Trade had bei-n ro-opened at
he South, and that a regular Depot has been
stablished, at lVarl river, Mississippi, where
argoes Iiad been received, and the negroeslold
and put to work, makes tho following
itatcmont, from which it appears, that the traf.
'ic has been carried on for years, by Northern
neti and by Northern Capital ; nnd that at
east 40 vessels e annually fitted out In Norhern
ports, capable of transporting 15 or 20,)00
slaves. This statement may servo *oinevhiit
to nppease the clamor of the abolition ict,
tnd moderate the Black Republican howl.
which the announcement of the Delta might
itherwise hove excited :
The announcement of this fact may strike
hose who arc not conversant with the sobeet.
as something new ; and will, no doubt^
:route considerable alnriii among those '-vlio
ire opposo'd to the revival of the slave trade.
Whether there is or is not any truth ip the
itatement of the Delta, it will furnish a text for
nnutnerable articles from the Abolitton )>re?p,
