And even now, to his recent letter, be ie compelled to admit thus much : "Nevertheless, it Is not to be denied, that the great cen tral facts, which controlled the whole clue, was the utter want of confidence by the people, in the whole machinery of the Territorial Government. That is, it was the contumacy of the Free• State man in refusing to recognize Ara, what they have slow( done, the b l io/ity of the Ley..latiore, sod sot this pretty story of dis franchisement which caused the election of the pro-sla very candidates to that Convention !• this admission, in itself, blows op this entire sympathetic telt ? But furth er ; these good gentlemen do not concur at all in their tes timony. Dov. Walim am) "A Dess.-rni," it will be seen' assert that the census and registry was - omitted by the omcers because, as they alleged, they bad no foods. Secretary Stanton, on the contrary, as late as De cember last, in his message to his called Legislator*, says: "The census therein provided for, Ir an imperfectly ob- Tined from an wawilliappeaple In alnetwen counties of the erritory ; while, in thet remaining commies, being also nineteen in number, from various causes, no attempt was made to comply with the law. ht *OW lasutece, people rare alike notree to the proceeding; in others, the officers oeyt,ctetl or refi Red to act, and in tease, there woe ina:a Ewan pope/talon, and no efficient organisation earthling tie ;movie IC ItTlart a repreeentanion in the Comarenttcni. Under the operation of all these combined, a census list was ()tasked of only nine thousand two hundred and Any one legal voters, confined to precisely one , half the even ties or the Territory, though these, ondoihtedly, contained much the larger part or' the population." ' Here is a most vital conflict in an essential restore of the ease. Secretary Stanton makes a deliberate and pos itive statement, sod if he is to be credited, tier. Walker mast be east aside. Bat Secretary Stanton's assertions re. spectiog sparseness of population and refusal of the Free State men to be registered, fully justify his earlier sugges tion, "that without indulging ungenerous suspicious of the integrity of Akers, we may well attribute any errors and reigrAd a eot t itPoll i g e g ri ket. ° iris:: 'iL"tr'oli rent. -n one another, that» our mind they banish all Further doubt, and utterly explode the allegation of "disfranebisemear now so mach relied:spun by "A Deauwerai." And now, to sum up upon this point of "A Democrats" indictment of the Democratic party--in May, says &new., there were 9250 voters registered—that is, there were that nambereif voters that could have taken part in the election—but, it appears by the same authority, (teaks) that only 2200 voted—that is, 7050 free state men refused to vote! Now bad they vorod, it is evident they could have elected every delegate to the Constitutional Convention, as claimed by the Herald of Freedom. But they ''stosid on etiquette— they refused to recognise the legality of the legislators that passed the law calling the Convention—ant the eon. saviour@ of this contumsey—this rebellion against lawful authority—was the Lecomptioe Convootioo, and the Lo• comption Constitution—the one a legal body, endowed with legal attributes, - lied the other a kyal instrument, and p ed of /ego/ vitally. They allowed this remelt to be achieved, too, in the face of the assurance of the. President sod Gov. Walker, that they should be protected in the exerts'se of their undoubted rights as voters, and the promulgation of the well known political priatriplis, ar a learnieg by the latter, that "those who abstain from the right of suffrage authorise those who de vote to act for them." They did "act for thista"-.not as we would bays had them, if we could bass helped It—not as we think sound policy ditacted, or the best interests of the territory or the country called for--but as they le gally had the right to do ; and hetice, neither we, Der "A Democrat," nor the 7050 registered voters of the territory I who refused to rote, have a right to complain ! Another count in.this Indictment against the President is that, in his special message on Kansas affairs, he has totally liptiired the vote on the 4th of Jaauary, when there were too thousand ballots east against the Lmompton Coarititation. We presume "A rketocror has heard of each a thing as an er post facto act—and If there ever was such an act in the world, in our opinion, the vote of the 4th was one. The matter on which those ten thousand votes were east, was a salter which had already been de termined. The books had been closed—the account real derod—and no subsequent action of the territorial legisla• tare could reopen the amount But, to illuetrate--aad we borrow this illustration from the Pittsburg Union—at the Presidential election of 1856, it appears that the State of New York numbered some 506,000 rotors. At the eleettee of last year fur Secretary of State, sta., there were cast but . 410,000 votes--the Democrats succeeding by less than 30,- )00 majority,—nearly .41,00 e less than a majority of the rotes actually tart I Now, allppoom the ketrialwisfed 1 , 0111 the approval of the Doversor, should hare ordered • au election, and these 160,000 voters had then participated, and given some other candidates a majority over the Dem ocrats, what effect would that won be entitled to ? The sumer twat inevitably be—okure whatever—ft mast he dis carded, and thrown utterly out of mecum. And so ills with this vote on the 4th. That vote, be it fraudulent so just, is entitled to just the same weight as would • similar ./ pea facto vote in 'helms of New York—now. miasma% We do not know, but we presume this is the view taken of tt by the President; at least it is the view dictated by comatoo sense—an article, by the by, which has not boom very extensively used in this Basses controversy ! A few words more sod we will bring this already too long »Heidi to a close. "A Democrat," lays great stress upon !"the personal irdith, reliability, and Dana:rimy' of his Witaeas, Gov.

Governor Cummings his issued his proolamit„ tion from Fort Bridger,. in Utah Territory, ele;v'en miles east of the city. It announces that he had been appointed Governor of Utah 12e • ry by the President; and calls upon IN ple who had collected in armed bodies, i opposition to the laws, to disperse to their pective homes, stating that those parties w had been engaged in the lawless sets of b ng the Waggons should be brought to punish ent. The proolamati had been received at Great Salt Lake City read in the Tabernacle, on the 6th r. Very free comments were paired a it, Mr. Carrington, of the News, lasted that it was unofficial, not having speci. lied the appointment was "'by the President ofthe United States." . The elders of the Church decided, ooeequently, that they had as yet no in -1 formation of the appointment of a new Govern or.

The Mormon troops, undr Lieutenant General Wells, had returned to the city, leaving about fifty men in the mountains to hold the passes and watch the enemy. The "boys" brought with them from 1,000 to 1,500 bead of cattle It is said that they were out of salt, which, on Brigham hearing he sent them 800 pounds It appearing inexpedient to receive presents frum those who have evinced such hostility,the ambas. saviors were seat back, and their'salioe present with them—with the admonition that if they re. turned to camp again they would bo made to cat all tho salt they had brought. Before the arrival of the !Jolted States troops at Fort Bridger, the Mormons had laid the build ing in ruins, and burned the grass on the plains. Fort Bridger is in an extensive plain, et conshier. 'blip altitude, with a very severe climate—the snow this year being unusually deep. Availing tbeaibalves of the standing walls, the troops had stretched canvass across them, and so secured comparative shelter. There is good deal of brush in the immediate vicinity, with plenty of timber within ten miles. From this point, however, in consequence of the heavy snows, they will not be able to roach the city before the first of May. Before that time, the city may be occupied by an enemy, if sent by the way of Los Angelo® valley. . There is no communication over the Gamut' Valley !rte. It having been undrstood that Col. Alexander had made a movement as if he intended to enter the oily from the north by Bear River, it seems from a hint Brigham let fall, that be has dis patched a force to meet him there. This is to be inferred from the fact of seisiag the cattle twin a man in the north, to supply the wants of his treOps. The Mormons are preparing fors long contest. Being free from molestation by the army till May or June, they are all busy putting in crops ---a much greater breadth of land will be culti. vated thari before. • The advanced pucks of the emigrants from San Bernardino, were met within 20 miles of Salt Lake City.
