Sentinel. —i » i — - New Haves.—Tee Democratic majority in New Haven is about 500, on an average of the six city officers contested. The New Haven Palladium (Republican) of the following day has an article on the “right of suffrage,” and laments that ”ia the larger towns and cities the people are often ruled by minorities.’ That is so. But sometimes the attempt toiscurries, as in the case of New Haven, which was gearry mandered a year or two ago by the R-pubhcan Legislature in such away as to throw very heavy Democratic majorities into two wards, in the hope of securing the other four for the Republicans. Two city elections have since occurred, and on each occasion the Democraiis have carried three wards, and also the Mayor, whose casting vote has enabled u>« asjority to govern, to the great mortification and disgust of the Republican minority, who ean't unde-stand why a poor laborer should weigh as much at tt.e pulls as an aristocrat. — Sew York Joumol of Commerce.

Lenuerat. The New Party Piuspect. ' A correspondent of the New Jorl Timer, speaks in the following manner tn lespeet to organizing a new Party: • The People’s party project finds little favor in New England, and the indications are that, if persevered in.it will alienate as many men a* it will conciliate. The mere cnange of name would disgust many who are tired of adding to the string of <z aw ma: now from their polities! detignation. Leaving 1840 aside, the opposition did better under the Republican name, in 1849, than ’.hey ever did before, *nd many believe it did better than it will ever ilo agsin. This is Republican authority and shows that there are a few scattering members in the party who have some senses of shame left, and who would act boaesdv were it not that they are con- »•!:«? by their leader* and political tricksters. A vigv roos imposition is set up by fotne of the ablest Republican journals in this State against the abandonmentof the Repubiieas organization. This, however, we do not think is persisted in from a real desire to carry out Republican principles, or that through the doctrines of the so-called Republican party, the great end and aim of our government could be subserved. The opposition is m«de by those only who are endowed with a little mere foresight than their brethern who are deriring a c. ar.ge; they know that there is' * i pretext for such a change, and would only tar.d to weaken rather than strengthen their partv, and hence their opposition. <D. C. Democrat>. ———<>——— The Mormons Moving. The news from Utah via California is confirmatory of that which we have already published from the camp of the expedition. There seems little reason to doubt that the Mormons are vacating their northern settlements, the object being to avoid contact and intercourse with the troops, of whose entrance into their valleys there seems now no longer any doubt on their minds. Messrs. Fulton and Surchel, who left Salt Lake valley on the 13th of April, inform the editor of the Placerville <Times> that the Mormons are temporarily removing into Iron county, in the extreme southern part of Desert [sic], but that their ultimate distination will probably be in some part of Sonora. Their mode of leaving the settlements is somewhat peculiar. All those living in the southern part of the Territory left first, in order that their vacant houses might serve as a shelter and resting-place for those who should follow front the north. In this way the evacuation commenced, and the southern settlements were under way, and those of the north were rapidly assembling at Salt Lake City for the purpose of following the bid of their leaders. ———<>———

Eagltsh’s Bill and the Illinois Press. It is stated that all the Democratic organs of Illinois, excepting two, indorse the English-Kansas bill. This shows a noble disposition on their part to harmonize the party again, and to save the State of Illinois from the rule of fanaticism and political corruption, which would surely ensue did they continue a belligerent opposition to the Administration, dividin the Democracy at home, and giving the victory over to the Republicans next fall. This course they can consistently take; for they are not called upon to indorse Lecompton, as that question is no longer an issue, and they can triumphantly claim the English bill as svictory of popular sovereignty.— Kankakee (Illinois) Democrat. When Governor Bashford, of Wisconsin, was approached by the President of the La Crosse Rnd Milwaukee railroad with the offer of a pecuniary compliment for his services to be rendered, he modestly replied that “he should not feel at liberty to decline a compliment of the kind, and should accept it willingly.

—TkiTresiie»U > * M th* I Mormont. Wheteas the Territory of Utah was fettled bv emigrants from the States and from foreign countries, who have .or several rears past manifested a spirit of insubordination to the Constitution and laws of the U. S.; the great mass of the •elder*, wtina ”t*der the influence of leader* to whom they seem to have surrendered their judgement, refuse to be controlled by any other authority: they have been often advised to obedience, and these friendly counsels hare been answered with deSaoce; officers of the Federal Government have been driven from the Territory for no offence but an effort to do their sworn duty; others have been prevented from going there by threats of assassination; judges have been violently interrupted is the perfonnance of functions, and the records of the courts have been seized, and either destroyed or concealed. Many other acts of unlawful violence have been perpetrated, and the right to repeat has been cpenly claimed by the leading inhabitants, with at least the silent aequiescznce oi nearly all the others. Their hostility to the country has at length become so violent, that no officer bearing a commission from the Chief. Magistrate of the Union can enter the Territory, or remain there with safety; and alt the officers recently appointed have been unable to go to Salt or else in Utah, beyond iue imine-; diate power <?■ tl.e army. Indeed, such it believed to be the condition to which a strange system of terrorism has brought the inhabitants of that region, that no one among them could express an opinion favorable to this Government, or even propose to obey its laws, without exposing his life and property to peril. After carefully considering this state of affairs, and maturely weighing the obligation I was under to see the laws executed, it seemed to me right and proper that I should make such use of the tnili-. itarv force at my disposal as might be necessary to protect the Federal officers in going into the Territory of Utah, and in performing their duties after arriving there. I accordingly ordered a detachment of the army to march for the City of Salt Lake, or within reach of that place and to act in case of need as a posse for the enforcement of the laws. But, in the meantime, the hatred of that missguided people for the just and legal authority of the Government had become so intense that they resolved to measure their military strength with that of the Unfon. They hare organized an armed force far from comtemptible in point of numbers, and trained it, it not with skill, at ’ least with great assiduity and perseverance While tne troops of the United ■States were on tbeir march, a train of baggage-wagons, which happened to be unprotected, was attacked and destroyed by a portion of the Murraon forces, and the provisions and stores with which the train was laden were wantonly burnt. In short, the present attitude is one of decided and unreserved enmity to tht United States, and to all ’.heir loyal citizens. Their determination to oppose the ulhority of the Government by mili’ary force has not only been expressed in words, but manifested iu overt acts as the most unequivocal character. Fellow citizens of Utah, this is rebellion against the Governmet; to which you owe allegiance. It is levying war against the United States, and involves you in the guilt of high treason. Persistence in it will bring you to condign punishment, to ruin, and to shame; for it is mere madness to suppose that, with your limited resources, you can successful!? resist the force of ibis great and powerful nation. If you have calculated upon the forbearance of the United States—if you have permitted yourselves tosuppose that this Government will fail to put forth its strength and bring you to submission—you have falltn into a grave mistake, you have settled upon territory which lies geographically in the heart of the Union. The l»nd you live upon was purchased by tn€ United State* and for paid out of their Treasury. The propriety right and title to it is in them, and not it) you.— 1 Utah is bounded on every side by States

and Territories whose people are true to the Union. It is absurd to beleive that, they will or can permit you to erect in their very midst a government of your own, not only independent of the authority which they all acknowledge, bathostile to them and their interests. Do not deceive yourselves, nor try to mislead others, by propagating the idea that this is a crusade against your religion. The Constitution and laws of thia country can take no notice of your creed, whether it be true or false." That is a question between God and yourselves, in which I disclaim ail right to interfere. If you obey the laws, keep the peace, and respect the just rights of others", you will be perfectly secure, and may live on in your present faith, or change it for another, at your pleasure. Every intelligent man among you knows very well that this Government has never, directly or indirectly, sought to molest you in your worship, to control yon in your ecclesiastical affairs, or even to influence you in your religious opinions. The rebellion is not merely a violation of your legal duty; it is without justcause without reason, without excuse. You never made a complaint that was not listened to with patience. You never exhibited * real grievance that was not redressed as promply as it could be. The i laws and regulation* enacted for vour government by Congress have been equal and just, and their enforcement sva« man

They are eimiUr ln material respect to the laws which hi everywhere else (with one partial S tion) been cheerfully obeyed \- people ever lived who were freer unnecessarry legal restraints than y ou Human wisdom never devised t | system which bestowed more blessina / imposed lighter burdens than the ment of the United States in >tsoperu i(r * upon the Territories. ‘ But. being anxious to save ih e e 9 tt « of blood, and to avoid the punishment of a whole people foi of which it is not probable thsi k ’ are equally guilty, I offer no* * :j and free pardon to all who will s u l ft mit themselves to the authority o! Federal Government. If you refuse u accept it, let the consequence* fall your own heads. But I conjure youiQ I pause deliberately, and reflect well, L ■ fore you reject this tender of peace t good will. Now, therefore, I, James Buchauu President of the United States, hp e thought proper to issue this, my proclu mation, enjoining upon all public officer* in the Territory of Utah to be dilim and faithful, to the full extent of thej. power, in the execution of the laws; coh manding all citizens of the Uuited State* in said Territory to aid and auiit tb* officers in the performance of their dutiei offering to the inhabitants of Utah, th shall submit to the laws, a free pardou for the seditions and treasons teretofon ,by them committed; warning those wU shall persist, after notice of thie prods* mation, in the present rebellion again., the United Slates, that they musteipw; no further lenity, but look to be rigorous ly dealt with according to their deser.i and declaring that the military forces cot in Utah, and hereafter to be sent then will not be withdrawn until the inhabitants of that Territory shall manifMi, proper sense of the duly which they o»« to the Government.
