    WESTERN CORRESPONDENCE,
- ... For Vu Democrat and Sentinel.
... Messr. White & Devise. Some kind friend
seat me a copy of the " AHeghanian" of the 3d
of May, containing a communication from C. Al
bright, Esq.; dated "'Pavnce; Ajttl Ctb., 1855,"
in which he has made some unkind, and I must
dd wigentiemanly remarks, regarding the state
ment in my letter of the 2d ' of January ,1853.
The greater part of his remarks are too child.sh
nnd trifling to merit a reply, but when lie asserts
that I mistate facts in saying, in my letter of the
2u of January 1855, " that Council city was no
where on the face of creation,"' I am reluctantly
compelled to make a plain statement of facts,
and leave our own old friends and acquaintances,
to pronounce juiVjement, and form their own con
clusions regarding our veracity, and I will cheer
fully abide the result.' Nor indeed would I now
obtrude myself on the public, were it utjtihat this
Is the second time, he has in "the AHeghanian"
accused me of falsifying, and mistating facts.
Your readers, (some of them at least) Pre aware
jot this fact, that some lime previous to our leav
ing for Kanzas, T went to Pittsburg to ascertain
liow cheap we could get my rail road from Pitts
burg to St. Louis, freight included, and reported
when I came home to Mr. : Albright and others,
that the agents told me the price was $19,50 for
first class cars, and $15,50 second class cars, was
the very best they could do for us. In a short
time Mr. Albright and several others left, and in
a few days, a letter appeared ,iu " tlie AHegha
nian" over the signature of C. Albright, in which
lie says, " I n.WE succrrrnm ix obtaining pas
sage with good accommodations FiioM Pitts
jjcrg to Kaxzas cm FOlt $20,00..
This paper was handed to me by two of my
warm friends in lE&cnsburg, pointing this letter
out to me when I road it I declared it false, and
iid to them, if I lived long enough to reach Kau
nas, I would prove to their satisfaction that I did
ji.it lie almut the passage by rail mad. When I
arrived in K-mwis I made the ewiuiry with regard
A-j it, from 21. Evans, IT. Lloyd, G. W. Brown
and other, all of whom told nic, they paid
$I-V iii .c.-ond class cars, from Tittsburg to St.
Iuiis. together with their expenses, and $10,00
JVoin there to Kansas city, making in the aggre
gate iiN.CO or $:0.00. la WestiK.rt I talked to
Mr. Albright on this snbje.-t, and told him I took
it as unkind, ho replied that it did appear so, but
deemed that he so intended it. Wc then agreed
to bury the hatchet and parted as good friends,
I, promising to write to him if I found a gxjd lo
cution for a lawyer, and he, p&unising to write to
me if he saw a location would suit me. This
much I have said with regard to my statement of
the passage to St. Luiis. . .
Now as to my t.itcinjiit fiuut;d.mi.il city,
which I said was no where on the lace of the
t-anh." ; Now the fir.-t Usiiniony I will give M-n
this subject is this, whoa I arrived at Kansas City .
I -then, received a .letter from Ebensburg' stating
that a letter luid been received there from Mr. Al-1
bright, .saving they hud arrived in the territory
d located the -city, ami Ciffled it f'rekir. ' I talk
til to Mr. Albright n Unit the oityauu remarked
to hiin that they certainly were subject to an in
tiictmcut for swindling, when tl.ey put forth cir-
ciil.irs -that Council city was alrestiTy -)rrad and j
that a party had already goVie o to make prewar-
iitions for the reception of others. Mr A Upright
replied, saying he knew the' were, 1 1. Id him also
if he would not refim-l t me the money I had re
ceipted for to Prosstr, Persliiug aud others, and.
pail to him, I would certainly "indict him. lie re
plied ho hail not tlie money, he had sent it to New
York ; he exhibited a receipt tx me of. SH7"JJ from
he secretary of the company, a ud saying at. the
urac time, that he was humbugged himself and
that he wnd 1 write to New York, aud g-t them
to refund the money, and if r.t, he would p.iy to
all those from whom he had ; received money, if
hey wooll gii'c lisai time, agreeing fully with me
at that time, that so for as Council city was con
cerned, it was a complete suck, and at that date it
was no where on the fare of the earth. J. receiv
ed a letter from him siiliseipicntly' m 'winch he
states, he made a claim near Furl IlciHy and was
jib ut to move there in a week", he also i-tat'"?, in
regard to Council city, any shareholder: wishing
Us money, can have it by writing, to Thaddcoua
Hyott, 110 Broad-way. New York, as they' had
anoved the city site one mile further r.p. ile also
wrote to a shareholder tlwi this Mr. Ilyott would
purchase shares to the amount of a thousand dol
iirs. .-I also' received a letter from one of theshare
holders, stating that he had w ritten a letter to Hy-"
ott, and that in reply Hyott told him he ..would
purchase sliarcs to the amount of oue buWdred,
but thought the shareholders were lucky ones, but
if they would sell to that -amount he would give
Jus note at six months. : .'''
I have digressed from a mere defence of myself,
f r the reason that I feel it my duty to thcJe for
whom I am acting as. agcut, to glvetl.cm all the
Information I can, and at the same time to inform
them that the principals themselves do not under
stand each'other Dir have they conCdoncViii Coun
cil city or Ureka orrbatever else it may be called.
Mr. Albright wrote there were 40 Penusylvanians
on the spot., , Now (tbe information I received
from R. Evans, V. Hand, and W. Bi iggs who all
give uie the paiaf ul history of their trip out there,
was that there were only two men there, that the
balance had all left, except tbeso and their fami
lies. When Evan I). Evans and myself were
talkiug to Mr. Albright, Evans remarked that if
it would be a edd winter tliey would perish with
cold and hunger; Albrigld; remarked, that he had
hauled out provisions for thcinand that coal was
but a short distance offnot pretending that there
was anyTlentmess of wood there, or. that there
wo more than, twofiunilfo there. . Mr. Albright's
statement appear to me something like ti state
ments of .Nimr., who wrote in the Allerbanipn
that they were lost on Hie prairie and wer"e three
nights without any thing to eat or drink.
Now to thafirst my defence; from the
cliarge of misstatement made ' by Mr." Albright
against me, I have given the names i of a "few "en-
tlemen with, whom you arc acquainted and on whose
veracity yon could depend,' and jut to'-the charge
about Council VityVlf could give you , if necessary
many narp.es who .uroulilestify that at the time I
rote, there was no such a place but t am bow
informed that they haafinan"ged tho site of the
city about the first of March, and clianged its
to those Xu
shortly, and wUl of course advise you of its pros
pects, and try and give you no misstatements
about it. As this. is the first, I trust it may bo
the last time I will have to publish any thing in
self defence. , - - .
: Now as to Kansas Territory, all I have to say is
this, from tho best information I can get, from the
few I see, of the many that are ' returing from
there, I consider myself lucky that I did not get
there with my family. For the reason -that my
available "means were small and my family large,
provisions very, high and difficult to b brought
there.; i Beside there is continual wrangling and
jarring between the pro and anti slavery men, and
might in a great measure makes right there, and
consequently a roans life is at a low price. I
heard yesterday that they drove a settler from
Jackson county Mo. off his claim near La wreuce,
a few days since, and that there were 200 men
raised in that county to reinstate hm and if neces
sary, drive the Boston aid society out of tho ter
titory if this be true, I thank God I am not
there. This I am told is not an uncommon 'oc
currence. As to Kansas being a free state,' is en
tirely out of the question, hfthing but a civil war
can ever establish freedom there at that idea ev
ery good feeling man must shudder so as' far as
that is concerned I am as well here as there. land
is as cheap here, but I honestly, butreluctaivfly ac
knowledge.'that nothing but sheer necessity keeps
me here. I may perhaps go to Kansas to live, it
is hard to tell what circumstances may compel
me to do, tut if I do go there, I will never assert
that Kansas is as well timbered as Pennsylvania
nor is any part west of the Mississippi. I must
bring this to A close, it is longer than I intended.
It was an unpleasant task for me rising from a
led of sickness, and could ouly be written by in
tervals. 1 have much more to say, but cannot
now. - Yours tn.lv,

Interesting from -Salt lake City Mormon
Lakk City, March 23, '1555. i:
Some disgraceful scenes appear . to have
been tratisacted , latoly in Utah. Sinccr Col.
Stcptoe has been nominated as Governor, the
Desert News, Hrigbam Young's organ, has
been teeming with panegyrics on tho " gal
lant Colonel;" and Orson Hyde, the chief of
the Twelve Apostles, has declared to the uni
versal world that " Col. Steptoe is a gentle
man." Those who were not previously aware
of the foci, now know it for a certainty, for it
is entirely by the venerable apostle -, '
13ut while the most fulsome praises of the
Colonel have been circulate I by the columns
of the church paper, merely to deceive per
sons at a distance, the officers and men of the
Colonel's command have, on several occasions,
been publicly blackguarded and insulted in
open day. As a sample a party . of officers
of the army were lately riding out with sonic
ladies, in Salt Lake City, -when they were
set upon by a mob of Mormons, among whom
were the sons of Bngham Young and Ileber
C. Kunball, Presidents of the church,'' and
two others, Huntingdon and Moore. These
men rode by the party at full speed j waving
their hats and shouting the most opprobrious
epithets and vulgar- oaths In hearing of the
ladies, and endeavored to fiighten"their hor
ses. One of the ladies, the daughter of the
Hob. Judge Kinney, Chief Justice of Utah,
was only saved from being thrown . from bcr
horse and injured by the coolness of one gen
tleman, whoieized the bridle and with diffi
culty restrained her horse. r - ' r. .i
J As the officers wished to proceed lawfully,
instead of putting a few bullets through the
chief actors in this disgraceful affair, the case
was represented to tie Mayor, Jedediah M.
Grant. A mock trial was gone through, and
though the conduct of the' mob was in direct
violation of the city ordinances, it was dis
covered th?t the individuals stood too Ligb in,
the church to be punished ; the ease was dis
missed, and the costs of the court, amounting
to an almost fabulous sum. were thrown upon
the plaintiSa - During the trial, the ladies
who were present as witnesses were "grossly
insulted by a low fellow, a 'witness for the defence-
1 The greatest excitement prevailed
during the trial,: nearly two hundred armed
Mormons aeiag eolloeted in and about the
Mayor's office. ; , . ;
, anti-American feeling seems to" ran
high in Salt Ike City, and the Gentile resi
dcttto MUapateVa-roptnre; The sooner it
comes the better. The Mormons, it has been
demonstrated, cannot live : with any other
people j not on aecount of their religious ten

The Liquor law In Portland. Full Particu
lars. The Author of the "Maine Law" in
Trouble.
We take the following particulars of the ri
ot in Forlland, growing cut of the purchase
of liquor for the use of the city,- from the Port
land .Argus of Monday : " t'-i '. f
It will be remembered ; that on Saturday
morning we called the attention of the City
Marshal and the police to the fact that a large
quantity of spirituous liquors had been pur
chased in New York and brought here for sale,
and suggested ; to. them the duty of seizing
them. : These" liquors 1,00.0 . worth, Mr.
Neal Dow had stated to one of the Alderman
he had toug1it 6n bh own individual respon
sibility, and had ordered them to bo brought
here and stored in the city. This being appa
rently in direct violation of law, making Mr.
Dow liable to the penalty, on. conviction, of
imprisonment for thirty days, and rendering
the liquors subject to seizure and destruction,
a complaint was accordingly made to. tho Po
lice Court, and J udgo Carter issued hia war
rant for tho seizure of the liquors; but wheth
er for the arrest of Mr. Dow we have not
learned . Judge-Carter, however, instead of
giving his warrant' to an officer who was ready
to make immediate service, put it in the hands
of Deputy Marshal King, : who, for. some
cause, immediately ' disappeared, and could
not b3 fouud. ,, - , -
Meantime the Board of Alderman, were
suddenly summoned to meet, for. the purpose,
it was alleged, of effecting a transfer of the
liquors to the city, for its agency, which was
established on last Thursday night, by the
easting vote of Mr. Dow, though the liquors
were purchased some weeks since. After the
Alderman had been together a while, Deputy
King appeared and siezed the liquors upon
the warrant. . i
Quite a little crowd stood about the door,
where the liquors were stored, and in the vi
cinity,' during the remainder of the afternoon,
but perfect quiet and good nature was obser
ved. Soon after 7 o'clock a crowd began to
collect about the deposit of the liquors in the
City Hall building, and gradually increased
until a little after D o'clock, when cry of fire
was raised, as we understand, by Mr. Dow's
order, and the bells rung with a view of di
verting, the crowd from the spot. It had
however, a contrary effect, and greatly in
creased it for a time, as the eugine companies
wove brought from both extremes of the city
to the centre in Market square, where the
' crowd was assembled.. They, however, soon
withdrew, and tlie crowd began to diuiinnsh. t
Occasionally during the eveniug.i 6toncs
and brickbats were thrown against the door of
1 the-liquor store, bvcaking the Iass and snih
m, and otherwise tho .door - This was done,
so far as we eould ee,; by boys. The whole
affair was the merest boys play, done in the
most apparent good nature, and with the least
possible excitemeut. .'
r- It is our decided opiuiou, and we Lave not
met an intelligent person who witnessed the
i proece-lings of tli evf aing, that docs noteon
j cur wah us, that an efficient police offlceir '
j with a dozen good ; nien could Rave easily
i dispersed the crowd any - time prior to 9 .V
: : Ssrr.r aftpr 1 (i nr-h-if'tr it rrrtird bad
iiiateiially : diminished, and seemed rapidly
dispersing, when Mr. Dow, accompanied by
Captain Green, and a partof the LightGuard,
-ajq-Kjared upon the side alk46u the north side,
of the City IIaIL.'.?TIie crowd were warned to
'di.-perse." llis appearance, , sword in band.
with soldiers, at once changed tie tcmpcr.of
the. multitude. They rallitl around them
and gave groans and LL&es prior to the proc-:
lamation to disperse. ' - - : ;
1 - Mr Dow. then gave. the. order First
section fire." ''' The order was not obeyed, and
the crowd then threw missUc3.."A part of the
company started', to escort Mr.' Jowi towards
Middle street, and the remainder immediately
returned to: thcifnnory in the third 'story
of the City 'Halt' building. ' At the time Jlri
Dow gave the order to fire. CapfcLu Green
refused to give it as we understand, on the,
ground that he did not think the circumstan
ces authorized itr)r the company were stand
ing directly opposite the entrance to the ball
of the Mechanics' Association in Clapp's block,
and their - fire would have taken effect, if at
all, upon tha people n the sidewalk , a part of
whom were mechanics just coming from their
ball, and who wore entirely unconscious that
any such proceeding was called for or contem
plated. : '' "V ' " ";
: ' After ' Captain Green's company had re
turned the brickbats flew thicker and Etroug
er and the police, who were aiding the Dep
uty Marshal,-, who bad seized the liquors to
guard thera, 'commenced firing pistols harged
only with powder.. A sort of sham fight was"
thus kept np between the 'crowd, which had
now become more determined in its character,
and the police, until about 11 o'clock, when
Mr. Dow, wkh' a portion of the Hifle Guard,
under Captain Charles W. Roberts descended
from the Light Guard's Armory, and with
the muskets of the Light Guards, to the Eouth
side of the City Hall. The : doors of the li
quor store were then thrown open, and the
Sring commenced,' by Mr. Dow's order,
through the store upon the crowd ia the 6treet

in the front part of the arm. The ball pene

and the wound dressed by Dr. Lord.
- Thomas MeKenney, a young man about 20
yeare.old, was slightly wounded by a bullet
on the head:' A young man by "the name of

F A N! I L Y P H Y S I C.
5 There has long existed a public demand fLr an
effective purgative I'ill wbich- could be relial oil
as sure and perfectly safe in its operation-'': T-'bis
has been prepared to meet that demand, and an
extensive trial .of i.U Afrtuds ' buis conclusively
shown w ith what suci:ess it accomplishes the pur
pose designed. It is easy to mak e a physical PiR,
but not so e;sy to make tlie Ina-t if nil Fills one
which should have uone of the ol-jeclions, but all
the advantages of every other. This has been at
tempteil here, and v.-ith ' wbht success wc would
respectfully submit to the public decision.. It has
been mfortun;ite for tlie patient hithcrto.that al
most every ptirgativoinelicine is acrimoniuusand
irritating utlt bowels. . This is m-t. Many of
thein pmTuceso nmch griping pain and revulsiun
in the system as to more than counterbalance tlie
good to lc deii ved from them. These Pills pro
duce no irritation 6c "pauf, , unless it arist-s from a
previously existing obtfuetiun ur derangement in
the bowels.' Bciug purely vegetable, no harm
can arise from their use in any quantify ; but it is
better that any medicine should be taken judi
.ciously. Minute directions tic' their use in ths
several diseases U which they are applicable are
nven mi the box; ! Among tbe complaints which
have been speedily cured by , them yc. may men
tion Liver Compiaiut, in its variui forms of
Jaundice, Iiv.ligcstion, Languor nnd Lossuf Appe
tite, L'stlessuos,' Irritability, Billious Headache,
Billions Fever',' Fever and Aguc.Tain in 'the Side
and Loins, for in truth all tliesc are but the con
sequence of diseased action of the liver. As an
aperient, they affjrd prompt and sure, relief jn
Costiveness, files, Colic Dysentery, Humors, Scro,
fula an.l scurvy, Colds, with stonesaof the body.
Ulcers' and; impurity of the blood; in fchort; any
and every case where a purgative is required. .
; They have also produced some wugularly suc
cessful cures in Rheumatism, Gout, Dropsy, Grav
el, Erysipelas, Palpitation of the Heart, Pains in
the Back, Stomach and Side. They should be
freely taken ia the spring of the year, to purify
the blood and prepare the system' for the cliange
of seasons. An occasional dose; stimulates' the
stomach into healthy action, and restores tlie ap
petite and vigor.- They purify the blood, and.
by their stimulant action on the- circulatory sys
tem, renovate the strength of tLe body, and re
store tho wasted or diseased energies of the whole
organism. Hence an occasional doso is advanta
geous even though ao serious derangement exists ;
but unnecessary . dosing should never be carried
too far, as every . purgativo . niotlkine reduces the
strength, wheu taken to excess.- Tlie thousand
cases in which a pbysiq is required cannot be enu
merated here, but they suggest themselves to the
