'Tis when my stock is upent and gone,
And I without a' croat, .

Yes, twenty thousand, ten times told,

To what your Father hath laid up,
Secure in God his Son.
Since, then, my banker is so rkh,

caring trip across the Continent during the

as the author of several able reports to Con

loth oay of June last, tho unprecedented
feat of ritliiig i.'lb'J miles, much of tho e!is
taneo in unexplored mountain passes, and all
in rough field service, without a tent, or ordi
nary baggage, in the thort space of four and
a half mouths, iiiclf.ding eighteen camp dttjs.
lie commenced with a puny cf thit teeu men,
four of whom raturnod with him to tho start
ing point, ct Independence, I.l 0. Many cf
tho originr.l party were disabled by iilnesi,
and some remain 111 the mountain?, c are on
their wsy to tha settlements. Win, II.
Wagner, John II. Ingle, Calv,n J. Crocker
and Alexander Mitchell are tho names of
thoso who urrived with Mr. Lur.der.
This severe labor was performed for tlio
purpura ci selecting thu shortest practicable
route for the new wagon read, piior to tho
arrival of tha workin;? train in chatge tl
BuperintensJiint Magraw. From scarcity of
grass and other obstacles not foiseun by in
uxpericnedd parties, the main working train
only arrived at ihe South Pass in sou.-on to
go into wiuter quarters, where it now 13.
'1'he Mormons having burned all the grass
on tho Southern wintering grounds, tho
wagon road expedition has selected a camp
on Wind river. It is surrounded by herds ct
buffulo and elk, with which, in event cf fail
ure of other mease of subsistence, the train
may bo supplied.
li. F. Ficklin, one of the asslstaut euglntiors
of thu advance party, who had diotii.uijhad
himself in detached service, had been detailed
by Mr. Lander at tho request or Superintend
ent Magraw, to purchase Oour aud other pro
visions for the train. In performing this
duty, he was surrounded coar Greon river,
by CO well armed mounted Mormons. He
gave them evasive answers as to the nature
of his buiiiieas, aud was at length allowed to
depart, lie rode at ouco lo the command cf
Col. Alexander, many miles distaut, und in
formed that geutleuiao of the advance of the
mounted armed men, und of the rumors that
five hundred had crossed Green river, going
in the direction of unprotected government
trams, but before any escort wag sent, three
trains, embracing seveuty-Bix wagous, were
reached and completely destroyed by ihe
party of t.xty men first sccd. From the do
stnictioo of these trains of provisions, the
fciiaUru motintaineets were disposed to hold
ai licit of subsistence at a high price. Flour

forces were in high spirit, nnd though trcvell
tug, with every prospect of ondurir jr reut
hnritahipc, rnthnnlHitio to a .can, ' nl pre
pared for the worst.
The explorations of the fldrftiica. party or
ltia Wagou Hood Expedition had proved Cf
great service to tho .command. The oitire
region between tho Salt IJika ainl nke
river, the South Pass end Tbnrmm! prin
Vnlley, conuecling the work cf fc'tat.lmry and
Fremont, and hitherto nnexplercd, had Lcen
surveyed and ttuipped: sixteen nionnhtin
passes examineil, all the tributaries of Ihn
upper Green rivor deRnsd to their Fonrce",
tho great Wahsalch chain found to eon'iit of
four distinct ranges. ' Numerous Supplies of
grass, wood and water had hern (iifrowrcr!,
und rations wagon roatvs, two of v.V.ich avoid
the Grand Desert of tho fcani.'y, and mir
seven days shorter travel in a distance if five

These may bo mentioned ns snma of the
results of thoj cxploialioi ?. 11a uiiiU'y

Wo forgot lo stale that Gov, Camming
and lady, with the Secretary of the Territory,
were met about two clays' march" east of

When Mr. J. informed Gov. Cumminr; of

tLt I can give only u st..t"ment of what li;'?
occurred tince my arrival, r.nd teport the
disposition 1 Lave determined tj muko of tlie
troops.
On t'uo day after reaching Il.tm'i Folk,
and at the first camp 1 mauL- 1 11 it, J received
the enclosed letters from Governor Yo'itig
a bl Lieutenant-Genital Welis. The jr po
sitions they contain, beweer absurd ll.ev
are, bhowed conclusively thttt a tieti i iiiined
oppo?ition to tho power of the government
v.us intended. 1 had met Captui.i Van Vliel
on thu l!bt ('f h-i ptBiii'.ier, ri turning from
Salt Luke City, nnd was informed by him that
although the Mormons, or rather Governor
Young, were determined to oppose un en
trunco into the city, yet he was assured that
no armed resistance would Le attempted if
we went no further than Foit Lmiger and
Fcrt Supply. 1 was still f'.rt'.ier convi.f ed
of thio by the circumstance that a luin cf 1
more man 0:10 uunureu contractors wagons
Lad been parkeJ for nearly three, weeks cn
Ham's Foiii without di fonce, nnd h id been
uuuiolBSted, althuugh they contained provis
ions aud supplies which would have been "of
great use to the Mutinous.
Upon reeeiving these letters I prepared
for defence and to guard the supplies ne'ar us
until tho nearest troops came t'p. I replied
to Gov. Young's letter, a copy of which I
cuclose, and have uot hud a;iy lurthvr coires
pnudouce with bitn. On the morning cf tho
Sib. of October the Mortncm burnt two
trains of government stores on Giei n river
and on tho ISig Sandy, und a few wagons
belonging to Mr. Perry, sutler of the lUth
Infantry, .which weru a few miles behind the
latter train. Colonel Wuiu, of tho Fifth,
though not anticipating any ait of the kind,
was preparing to send buck: a detachment lo
theae 'trains from bis camp on UlucVa Fotk,
when ho received from rouio teumstci'3 who
came in the intelligence of their buit'g burned.
No doubt uow existed that the i:n-t ilett r
mined hostility might be expected on the
part of the Mormous, and it became uccos aiy
from the extreme lateness of the ceason, to
adopt some immediate course for wintering
the troops and preserving tne supply trains
with us. After much dulibvralioii, aud as
sisted by the counsel of the Senior oluccrs, 1
have determined to move the tr-op by the
following ronte:-Up Ham's IVik about
