Tin Mormon.
We find in the Western papers the following
official document, addressed by the Governor of
Illinois to the people of the State. It declares,
it will be seen, that the leading Mormons, Joe
and Hiram Smith, were basely assassinated, af
ter they had voluntarily surrendered themselves,
Tn the pledge of protection from the Governor
of the State, and were awaiting their trial, ac
cording to the laws of the land. We hope that
Gov. Ford and the authorities of Illinois will
vindicate this horrible outrage upon humanity,
nnd the honor and dignity of the State, by detec
ting and bringing to condign punishment every
individual who had any hand in the murder :
Head Quarters, )
Quincy, June ), 1341.
"To the people of Illinois :
I desire to make a brief but true statement of
the recent disgraceful afl.tir at Cartilage, in re
gard to the Smiths, so far as circumstances have
tome to my knowledge. Tlio Smiths, Joseph
and Hiram, have been assassinated in Jail, by
whom is not known, but will be ascertained.
I pledged myself for their ssitety, and upon the
assurance of that pledge, they surrendered as
prisoners. The Mormons surrendered the pub
lic arms in their possession, and the Nauvoo
Legion submitted to the command of dipt. Sin
gleton, of IJrown county, deputed for that pur
pose by me.
All these things were required to satisfy the
X)ld citizens of Hancock, that the Mormons were
peaceably disposed, and to allay jealousy and
excitement in their minds. It appears howe
ver that the compliance of the Mormons with
every requisition made upon them, failed of that
purpose The pledge of security of the Smiths,
was not given upon my individual responsibili
ty. Before I gave it, I obtained a pledge of ho
nor by a unanimous vote from the officers and
men under my command to sustain me in per
forming it. If the assassination of the Smiths
was committed by any portion of these, they
have added treachery to murder, and have done
nil they could do to disgrace the State, and sul
ly the public honor.
On the moriiig of the day the deed was com
mitted, we had proposed to march the army un
der my command into Nauvoo. I, however,
discovered, on the evening before, that nothing
but utter destruction of the city would satisfy a
portion of the troop; and that it we marc! el into
the city, pretexts would not be wanting for com
mencing hostilities. The Mormons had done e
very thing required of them. Offensive opera
tions on our part would have been as unjust
and disgraceful as they would have bcn impo
litic, in the present critical season of the year,
the harvest and the crops. For these reasons I
decided, in a council of officers, t disband the
army, except three companies, two of which
were retained as a guard for the Jail. With
the other company I marched into Nauvoo to
address the inhabitants there, and tell them
u-hit they might expect in case they design
edly or imprudently provoked a war. I per
formed this duty, as 1 think, plainly and em
phatically, and then set out to return to Car
thage. When I had mnrched about three miles
a messenger informed me of the occurrence at
Carthage. 1 hastened on to that place. The
guard, it is said, did tl.eir duty, but was over
powered. Many of the inhabitants of Carthage
had fled with their fumilies. Others were pre
paring to go. I apprehended danger to the set
tlements from the sudden fury and passion of
the Mormons, and sanctioned their movements
in tliis respect.
General Doming volunteered to remain with
a few troops, to observe the progress of events, 1
to defend property against small numbers, and '
with orders to retreat if menaced by a superior J
force. I decided to proceed immediately to j
Quincy, to prepare a force, suflicirnt to sup- I
press disorders, in case they should ensue from !
tho foregoing transactions or from any other
cause. I have hopes that the Mormons will
make no further difficulties. In this I maybe
mistaken. The other paity may not be satis
fied. They may recommence aggression. 1
am determined to preserve the peace against

Wheat Lime. We saw yesterday a par
cel of very superior red Wheat, weighing til
pounds per bushel, which has been purchased
for city grinding, and which was raised under
circumstances showing what good management
may effect iu the agricultural line. The wheat
in question was the product of a field which a
short time since was part of a waste common
that had been uncultivated for many years, and
was deemed to be too poor and worn out to
yield anything. After enclosing it the present
owner put lime upon it in the proportion of
one hundred bushels to thcacre, and subsequent
ly followed the lime with a liberal application
of stable manure. Last Fall the field thus pre
pared was sowed in wheat, and lias just return
ed a crop of the very best quality, averaging
thirty bushels to the acre. The field thus res
tored and enriched will require but little addi
tional outlay for years to come, and in the mean
time will yield a liberal annual return to the sa
gacious owner. Halt. Amer.
Twenty-six large avenues and a third river,
larger than any previously known, have been
discovered in the mammoth cave, Kentucky.
A sulphur spring of an excellent quality of wa
ter has also been found some miles within the
cave. Boats of admirable construction have
been built expressly for the rivers, so that visi
tors desirous of taking a water excursion, a do
zen or so miles under ground, can be accommodated.
FOR TUB AMKntCl.
Ma. Editor '.Myself and neighbors me de
cidedly in favor of again nominating EDWARD
Y. BRIGHT, as the Democratic candidate for the
Assembly. Mr, Bright mide a very good mem
ber he was active and industrious always at his
post, and did his duty faithfully. He was chair
man of a very important Committee, and one that
required a great deal of attention and labor. His
appointment to this station shows that he had the
respect and confidence of his fellow members, and
they say that we never sent a more industrious
and attentive member.
Mr. Bright took an active and leading part in
retrenching the eipcnses of the Legislature, and in
introducing principles of economy into every
brunch of the Government. He was on the Com
mittee of Accounts, through whose exertions the
reform which distinguished the last Legislature
was brought about. He went about saving tho
people's money in earnest. A few days afier the
opening of the session, be offered the resolution
which became a la, giving the Public Printing
nnd Binding to the lowest bidder. This measure
alone will save about Tex Thousand Dollars
annually.
It was suspected that great frauds had been
committed by the piinlers under former laws. Tho
Committee on Accounts set about the investiga
tion of these accounts with a determination to
ferret out the frauds. Mr. Bright was one of the
most industrious and persevering members of that
Committee. The result was that ovctchatgcs or
the piinters, to the amount of thirteen thousand
dollars, were discovered and suits directed to be
brought to recover that sum back into the Treasury.
The contingent expenws of the lust Legislature
were not one fifth of Ihe expenses of the prreecd
ing. Some f 15 or f 20,000 were saved to the
Commonwealth in this matter alone, by the care
and economy of the Commit'ee of Accounts.
Mr. Blight then has done his duty faithfully and
honestly. He has rained out ths wishes of the
people, and ought to be re-elected unanimously.
Honor to whom honor is due. Let the faithful
public servant be rewarded, and the best interests
of the people will be faithfully represented.

ation of the Democratic Electors of Northumber

as a candidate for the Legislature. Should the
