Th* Mormons.— lt appears by state

movements being made with regard to the
Mormons leaving the continent is not a
jjarty one, and; did not originate with poli
ticians. It originated with certain ship

pith the Mormon chiefs. The plan is not
jet matured, but it is highly probable that
it w|H be nithin a short time. The prin
ciple bf it is that the Mormons shall be
for their improvements at a fair val

be able to pay for their transportation to
an Island on the Pacific selected for that
purpose. *

Death Speech of Evans.
Obntlkmxn; —I stand before you for the last
time. A few more minutes, and 1 shall be in
the presence of my Maker and Judge. Since
the 11th of May, 1858, 1 have been deeply in
the waters of affliction; but while thus encom
passed. I have had the Lord Jesus Christ (o sus
tain me. A dear companion was then taken
from ime, for whom I would willingly have laid
down my life. Of her death I have been con
victed ; but before God, my Maker. 1 declare
my innocence. Who did the awful deed 1 know
not. I die innocent, but hope my death may
be a means of good to some here. I once prom
ised to make a statement to the public before
my execution; but as it has refused belief to
what has already been offered, I have decided
to refrain. [He here referred to some state
ments which were given in evidence on bis trial ]
1 was going to declare these statements false :
bat I leave the witnesses to their God. I did
not see Riddle that morning; and did not dis
cover the loss of the money until some time af
ter: I entertain no enmity to the witnesses
against mo; and leave.them to a higher Being.
1 could get down on my knees and pray for all
of them; and I sincerely hope to meet them all
where sin and sorrow shall be no more. But 1
am not a left-banded man, and the witnesses
. knew it was false.
In yonder cell, I have bowed before my God:
I have prayed for them and me. 1 have made a
written statement, which is in the bands of a
friend, with liberty to publish if he and others
think best If contains more than I can tell.—
Before I leave the world, I want to declare my
trust rn my Saviour and Redeemer, my belief
that he has forgiven my sins, and that be will
clothe me with the robes of purity and bliss.—
Let your hearts intercede in my behalf, that
when my body drops, my soul may fly aloft to
nn everlasting habitation. [After conferring
; with his spiritual advisers he proceeded.] Gen
tlemen, if I know anything of my own heart. I
love the Lord Jeans. I know that for his sake
my sins have been forgiven. I have a home
beyond this vale of tears—a home in the heav
ens, I know that my Redeemer liveth, and I
believe that when the drop shall fall, the Lord
Jeans will receive me t,o a home above. 1 feel
happy in anticipating that I shall soon join them
on high—my beloved companion and offspring.
I hope to dwell with them and my Lord Jesus,
1 have nothing more to say except that I am
going, home, and expect to enjoy a blessed im
mortality. V
Duties of United States Marshals— The
opinion of the Supreme Court of the United
States in the Wisconsin fugitive slave case has
at length beeif published. Though we have
hitherto given the substance of that part of it
regarding the powers of the Federal Courts and
the duties of the Federal officers, in cases arri-
ving uhder tbe Federal laws, we subjoin, for the
better information of the public, a paragraph
from the official copy of the opinion
“ Although it is the duty of the Marshal or
other persons bolding him to make known by a
proper return the authority under which he de
tains him. it is at the came time imperatively
hjs duty to obey the process of the United
-Stales: to hold the prisoner in custody under
it, find to refute obedience to the mandate or pro
cess of any other Government. And consequent-,
ly it is his duty not to take the prisoner, nor
suffer him to be taken, before a titate judge or
court upon a habeas corpus issued under S'nte
authority. No State judge or court, after they
are judicially informed that the party is impris
oned under the authority of the United States,
has’ any right to interfere with him, or to re
quire him to be brought before them'. And if
the authority of a State, in the form of judicial
prodess 6r otherwise, should attempt to control
the ' Marshall or other authorized agent of the
United States, in any respect, in the custody of
his prisoner, it would be his duty to resist it,
and to'call to his aid any force that may be ne
cessary to maintain the'authority of the law
against illegal interference. No judicial pro
cess; whatever form it may assu ne, can have
any lawful authority outside of the limits of the
jurisdiction of the court or judge by whom it is
issued : and au attempt to force it. beyond these
boundaries is nothing less than lawless vio-.
lence.”

At Borodina, on the 7th September, was
fought a desperate battle between fivMWui
and French. The French lost in killed, wound-,
cd and prisoners, 60.000, and the tinmans
about the same number. The survivors of the
French army, ftomi the Bnssian campaign, were
not more than 55,000 out of an army of 600,000
men.
At Lntzen. in Russian Saxony, on the 2d of
Kay. 1818," the allied Russia and Prussian forces

allies 16,000.
At Dresden, in Saxony, on the 16th and 17th
Angnat, 1815. the allies wen defeated by foe
French. The leas of the allies was about 25.000

the allies. Napoleon lost two marshal, twenty
generals and 60.000 men. The allies tost 1.700

which the Prussians lost 15,000 men, and the
French 6,800.
In the indecisive battle at Qnatre Bras, in
Belgium, on the 16th of June, the day before
that of Waterloo, the allies lost 6,200 men, and
the French 114.
At Waterloo the total loss of the allies, was
15.636 men. Napoleon’s was about 40,000.
Neither the Austrians nor Prussians can de
rive much encoragement from history to engage
in a war with France. The French troops have
only been matched-in these wars by the English,
the Spaniards and the Russians—scarcely by the
last named.
Another Tbaqkut—A Husband Kills his
Wife’s Pabhocr. — A shocking tragedy occurred
in Cincinnati, on Wednesday night. A man
named Richard Mahone, the father of three
children, was deliberately shot and killed at n
public house, by John W. Clawson, who was
immediately arrested. The Commercial thus
details the circumstances which led to the
deed:—
Clawson is a young man, not probably over
twenty-four years of age. His troubles seem all
to have occurred from ub unfortunate marriage.
Six years ago, be led to the alter a young and
beautiful girl of' Philadelphia. The marriage
was opposed by both his and her friends. The
objections urged were their ages—she not yet
fifteen; while he wanted three years before attain
ing his majority. Despite the warnings and
counsel if friends, they eloped and were married
clandestinely. They came to this city, and for
two years their lives were happy, but at last the
tempter invaded the sanctity of their home, uud
the girl—though n mother, still a girl—again
eloped- not as a wife, but ns a mistress. She
was soon forsaken by her seducer, and writing
to h»r,.husbnml —who sill cherished for bis er
ring wife an unaltered affection—a penitent let
ter. he received beg agai n. with all her imperfec
tion. Two more years rolled away, she per
formed in the interim the duties of a with and
mother in their fullest sense, the dark spot on
their marriage existence was almost forgotten,
wheiya fiend more arch than the first, ingratiated
himself into their houshold. and succeeded in
alluring her from the path of honor. This was
the man whom the husband killed.. For a time
stolen interviews were had. but of, late the twain
have lived together publicly, as man and mis
tress.
Attempt to Mimosa the Through Majl
Aoekt and Kob the Mails anr Express Curst.
—On Wednesday evening, tii#hc express train
that leaves New York at 5 o’clock, P. M.. on
the New York and Erie Railroad, lefl Port Jer
vis, 88 miles from New York, a few minutes
past 9 o’clock, a fellow attempted to administer
chloroform to Mr. Adam Keck, the mail agent.
A sponge well saturated was applied, but hi the
'act, a drop fell 1 on, Mr keek’s face, which
aroused him. Springing up. the person clinched
the agent by the cravat and drew a six-barrel led
pistol. The mail agent seized the pistol just by
the cook, and the two had a severe tussuj for
ten minutes or more, during which time the
pistol dropped. The robber then attempted to
use a slung shot, which he also lost during the
tussel, and was altogether roughly handled.
During the senffle three or four express boxes
were broken by the parlies falling on them, and
the iron rods in front of the window were bent
out four inches and the glass broken. Unfor
tunately the bell rope was polled by "One of
them, which brought the triiln to a stand The
robber broke away and jumped off the car be
fore the conductor could seize him The ear
was so full of the chloroform that it was actual
ly suffocating. The robber left behind him an
overcoat valued at $96. the six barrelled pistol,
a basket containing provisions, a bottle of bran
dy, a bag. supposed to put the money in, (if he
got any.) and the slung shot. No doubt be exr
peered .to kill the express messenger, and the
mail agent also, if they made any resistance,
take the key of the safe and extract the money,
of which there was $lOO,OOO.
Floating Brick.— Bricks that will float used
to be made years ago, but the afffbas been lost
till recently. A Monsieur Folpini has, it is
said, discovered their compositicm, which is said
to be fifty-five parts of siliceous finrth, fifteen of
magnesia, fourteen of water, twelve of alumina,*
three of lime, and one of iron. They are Infu
sible, and will float in water though one twen
tieth part of common clay be added to them.—
They resist water, unite perfectly with' lime,
and are subject to no change from heat or cold.
They are nearly as strong as common brick,
though only about one-sixth as heavy, or con
siderably lighter than water. They are such
poor, conductors of heat that one end may be
heated red hot while the other end is held in
the hand.
