[MER ARRAN G: NEW YORK, SA Affairs In Philadelphia. {From Philadelphia Chronicie, July 12} The Riots are over, so far as our knowledge ex- tends. In the southern section, where the distur- bances occurred, all is quiet—the people have re- sumed their business—the authorities have no ex- tra power—the church remains unmolested. In short, everything is as it was previous to Friday last, in that neighborhood,® except the shattered property. Ss In the neighborhood of the Girard Bank—the Major General’s Head Quarters—there were col- lections of persons all day and evening, but not equal to preceding days. The military continue on duty. They are stationed at various places, un known to any but themselves. 1n the evening the cavalry were withdrawn from the front of the bank, and onl few sentries are stationed there. At 10 o’clock, night, all was quiet—but few per- sons in the streets, and no riotous or turbulent lan- passe is used. We believe the troubles are entire- lyover, “ be _ Shortly after the hearing and binding over, (men- tioned yesterday.) a large crowd collected in front of the Sun Olfice. Mr. Levin addressed them briefly, calling upon them to disperse, and not to infringe the lawe—not to create mobs—leave that to the*military, &c. He spoke but a few minutes, and then retired, when the crowd dispersed.

[From the Philadelphia July 12.] What a singular state of thi: ngs Allis hurry, bustle, commotion and alarm. Our streets are fill- ed with groups of animated people, conversing on current events; while inthe vicinity of our office the incessant parade of the troops, and the conse- quent running to and fro of the multitude gathered at all hours of the day and night to witnees their appearance, numbers and evolutions, and lig ture their intentions, all present apicture full @f 20- lemnreflection. Yet everything is quiet, as fa¥ as the ety proper concerned There is no reason to apprehend an outbreak here; and if we excep! the arrest of those who have made. it a point, of glory, it is charged, to reunrene the mob, and jus- ufy it in its murderous warfure upon the con- stituted authorities of Philadelphia, we see no- thing going on around us that a stranger migh! Net construe into the paraphernalia of a holiday.— In the ‘infected district” the scene alters. The tranquillity though serene, is superficial. [t is no- minully under the control of the District Authori- ties and a Peace-police, but in reality under no control whatever. The repose is somewhat of that speties which veasts of prey submit to when, sat isfied to the full with all their appetite demands, they grow temporarily averse to violent exertion — It is an incontrovertible fact that the late riot. ers there, cannot be arrested by any local authori- ty- It is indisputable that they collect in various public places—boast of their slaughter of our rave military defenders—of their prowess in defying the law and its ministers—of their prepara tions to put down any force the Goveraor may send against them—-and their determination to resist any authority but that of “ Native American” leaders It cannot be denied, too, that they are supported to asad extent, in that district, by public opinion— that an Irishman or a Catholic, there, must sabmi! to the searching of his house by self coustituted 1. quisitors for arms—that neither, if strangers, cau walk the streets excepting at the hazard of » personal assault—that no man in military unt form can venture there, alone, but at the im minent peril of his lite, (a species of gratitude for the gallant maintenance of the government, which monarchist call signally American!)—and that, while men who were wounded in open and armed rebellion against our laws and government, are called “Martyrs to Liberty!” and nr n whi were killed in the same treasonable position are borne to the grave wrapped in the American Flag. which they died fighting against, the courageour Citizens in Arms,who volunteered their lives in de fence of the law, are held up to execration, and the bodies of their deceased comrades meet with no outward demonstrations of public respect. This is the exact condition of affairs, without varnish o1 coloring of ary kind. There is no peace yet permanently established inthe riotous district. The rebellious spirit has been quieted, but not crusned. The disease ha: been palliated, but not remedied. And there isbut one course lett us to pursue. The supremacy of the laws must be maintained atevery und any cost: This now geems to be, as it ought to be, public opinion, and the tone of the public press, we are gratified to see, has come to this at last. Mob law and anarchy must not, cannot rule, under our form of governnient. The laws must be supreme, and person and property secure. The present state of affairs must be reversed. .. The compromise of Monday must be annulled,or liberty will lose its foothold. Mob law must not receive the sanction of the popular voice. The rebels must yield. The Hea must disperse and give up all their arms, small and large, before peace and quiet can be permanently restored. To prevent future outbreaks, it is very evident that a different settlement with the rioters in Southwark and Moyamensing must take place. The mob, or the rioters, must not be allowed, through the Commissioners of Southwark,to make terms for the higher authorities. It willnotdo. Property andper- son are not safe tinder such an arrangement, and the rioters know it, and already rejoice. We hope his Excellency the Governor, will look into it. The considerate forbearance yielded so far, will only breed more and dreadful disturbances. Now is the period to teagh the guilty a lesson. The whole district should be invested with the troops, and all the cannon and small arms eurren- dered, and all the fugitives from j.stice arrested. Arrests or Lavin anv Orners.—Following are the remarks in the Philadelphia Sun of yester day written by its editor, Mr..Levin, after his ar rest. {From Philadelphia Sun, July 19.) Linerty or Spercu—Tue Freepom or tne Press.—We live in times full of beg ire liberty and fatal to the exevcise of rights, or the enjoyment of peace and happiness. All society is convulsed by the sense of personal insecurity. The freedom of the Press, as well as liberty of speech are as- sailed, bridled—perhaps destroyed. he most pa- cific men are surrounded by peril. The most stern friends of law and order are among the first to be accused of treason—for opinions uttered, bound over as rioters—and persecuted as abettors of dis- order, for casual sentiments expreesed. As far as the Ecitor of this paper 1s implicated, he has ever been the advocate, stern and unyielding, of law— the active, personal, as well as editorial champion of peace and order—and thus will he forever re- main, firm and fearless in the discharge of duty. Under the “supremacy of the laws” he has match. ed among enraged masses ely them, and into charches to defend them. Yet, even we are ac- cused of treason—constructive treason, and per- secuted as aiding and abetting to riot and disorder! How all this has befallen Americans, in the midst of their young freedom, and in the middle of the nineteenth century, let the ** Repealers” and their organs answer, e stand acquitted in the face of God and man. But how could we expect to go scathless, when all around us have suffered in this universal desecration of constitutional rights? When persecution has slain ite martyrs to liberty, and ner combines to laugh human rights into derision. istory has sealed the truth of the maxim that law- lesa disorder always ends in the severiiy of despo- ism, Men remiss in their duty togpreserve peace, TURDAY MORNIN at the proper time, always resort to extreme rigor to atone for their former laxity; but where plots, frauds, conspiracies, and all sorts of schemes abound, to further party ends, justice and right must necessarily endure forthe moment all the evils common to the abrogation of the constitu- tion, and the stifled ascendency of free principles The liberty of the Press, is the last abiding place of the rights of man. It isthe most precious of all the blessings of freedom. To assail it, is one of the blackest crimes of tyrants. The expression of free opinion, the liberty of epeech, is equally to be valued. What is the value ot lite without liberty of speech? Both are rights guaranteed by the Cc nsti- tution. To the laws and the Constitution then, let ug appeal who are oppressed, wronged, and perse- cuted. The habeas corpus 13 not yet abolished. ‘There is yet sa ety for the_people in that ine-tima- ble mght If we had not full faith in the elliciency of our institutions to protect every citizen in his rights, we should not hesitate to prefer a residence in Russia. We are for peace, but for justice too, and justice shall be done. Arrest the guilty, no matter, whether found clad in the embroidered ae of office, or in the gory rags of riot and homi- cide Commoxweantn vs. Luwis C. Levix.—Yesterday morn ing L C. Levin, editor of this paper, was taken beiore Recorder Vaux, on the charge of inciting tu riot and trea son, in editorial articles published on the 9th and 10th of July. Ovid F. Johnson appeared in behalf of the Com- monweslth ; David Paul Srown and Jobo Titus, Esqu., for Mr. Levin. Gronax Horrnea sworn—I read the Daily Sun; I have It is always understood Mr Levin to be the editor. Mr, Baows objected to the churacter of the proof. not for me to say who is the editor—rny man may pre- aume—but presumption wont do. I want the proof. ‘The same kind of proot is necessary here as on a jury trial. Hvuaent Paice next called—] am a clerk in the office of the Daily Sun. J have alw: Cs understood Mr. Levin to be the editor of the paper. This paper (holding up a copy) was issued from the Sun office. Mr Jounson arose and procpeaed for the prosecution He referred to the editorial article published in the paper on the 9h, headed * The an 4 Mr. Brown wished it read—which Mr. Jonson did, and receeded tocomment This article, said he, eharges the jilitary with Saori wy Mh uncalled for, wanton avd murderous assault upon the people. It also charges them with firing upon the committee who had charge of the church ; while we say that it was an attack by a lerocions mob on the military, who were acting under the sanction of the Executive, sad in support of the civil authorities. Mr. Johaoson next read from tne paper of the 10th inst. the editorial article headed “ The Military—The Grand ry.” Now, said he, on Sunday morning there was a: tack made on the church and an effort made to rescue a person who had been arrested on the previous evening. The authorities deemed it necessary, and were in the act of taking possession, when they were assailed by the mob and compelled to fire, The military were acting under the civil authority, and were called out to quell a rebel lion, and every man who carried a gun on that day to sist them was guilty of high treason. Mr. Leven, writing these articles, no doubt thonght he was perform- ingaduty. They contain much that is true, mixed up with agocd deal which, to say the least, ia a mistaken opinion of right. Andif men are to be permitted to go on in open detance of all law and order, there is no #e- curity for society. This proceeding hes been instituted with a desire to preserve the public peace, and with no dispositien to’ persecute Mr. Levin. Mr. Brown arose and stoted that a difficulty started it eelf in the preliminary stages of the esi He un- derstood Mr. Johneon to say, in the course of his remarks, that he had some evidence. He has exhibited nothing but the publication, which I centend is not sufficient io itself, because it may contain truths from first to last This will not do, for no respectable man can be permitted to expresa his sentiments in the public street, without be. ing liable to an arrest. What a man may speak of the conduet of public otticerahe may publish. ‘This ix an at- tempt to fetter the press, and neither law nor public sen- timent will sustain it. If the counsel for the Common- wealth can show that the whole proceeding was an out- rage upon the military, let them show it. The basis of the criminal Jaw is, that there must be corruption onthe part of tho individual making the statement. The institu- tion ofa suit against Mr. Levin at this time Is a piece of great indiscretion, and not only calculated to keep up tne excitement, but to make another. And no attempt has yet been made to show that he acted from any other than Cartes spas As i ed of a lee a ile a it 18 his duty to @ public intormed of is Tirevents, andto mske qich comsmenizon the conductet Nor is the soldier the people—he is Mr. Levin is here charged with inciting to riot and treason, and will a mere newspaper publication make out the charge. Here is the publication, and I am prepared to show that everything herein stated is true. But this I am not called upon to do, and | stand here to assert that no man can be indicted for publishing the truth in a newspsper. Mr Jonxson—Every man has been called upon by the Executive to put down riot and bloodshed, and | look upon che writings of the defendant as calculated to defeat that object. ecorder Vaux—Mr. Levin has been brought here on the charge of riot and treason, and J will make short work of it My duty is simply to bind over for trial Mr. Brows—Then the question recura upon the publi- cation itself, and f will thank my learned friend to refer me to the objectionable passages. Mr. Jonxson then proceeded to select the passages most abjectionab! in which the military are censured for firing upou unoffending citizens, and made some brie! comment upon each. Mr. Baown in reply, took up each pas: and showed that there had been nothing offvred to substantiate the charge, and contended that the publications, if true, were not criminal, and that it was incumbent upon the prose- cution to show their faleity. Recorper—I will hold Mr. Levin to bail in $3 000 to ewer at the next term of the Court the charge of inci- ing to riot and treason, and in $1,000 to keop the peace. J. M. Rusn, Deputy Attorney General, suggested that the bail be $4,000. Recoupex—Mr Levin could just as readily get $50 000 asd. If the bailis not forthcoming in belf an hour | will commit him. Mr. Levin readily gave the required bail ana left the office amid the gongratulations of his friends. Mr_ Kramer, editor of the jive American, was next called up onthe same charge. The eae General re- marked that this case was not 10 aggravated as the other, and he thought less bail would be required. He then read the objectionable artictes. Mr. Whitman, counsel for Mr. Kramer, said, in extenuation, that the articles were writ- ten in the absence of Mr Kramer, and that in the paper of ‘his merning, he has expressed his regret at their appear- ince. Mr. Kramer was held in his own recognizance to keep the peace, in $500, “Did not Mr. Wright Ardis, one of the Southwark Com- mittee, that waited on the Sheriff on Sunday, tell that fanctionary that Mr. Levin stated that they could not hold possession of the church longer than fifteen minutes, and that he (Ardis) came by Levin's request to urge the Sheriff to take vossession of the Church? And was not this the reason why the military were sent down ?”— Ferum. We thank the Forum, for putting this questien, and shall reply to it in a manner, that shall strike dismay into the hearts of those, whose hatred may be taken as a tolerable measure of their fears. On Sunday morning last, at a quarter past 12 o’clock, Thomas D. Grover, Esq., called on Mr. Levin, and informed him, that the placing of the Hiber- aian Greens inSt Philip’s Church, had greatly censed the people, that the excitement was grow- ing hotter and hotter, that the lives of the Green’s were in imminent peril, and asked Mr. L. to ac- company him, and aid him in alla ‘ing the excite- ment. Mr. L. promptly responded to the call, and on reaching the spot, they found two pieces of Ar- tillery. Mr. Grover mounted the one, Mr. Levin the other, After several appeals had been made to the people, and assurance given, that the Hibernia Green’s would be withdrawn, we were permitied @ carry off the cannon from the ground without molestation. The conduct of the people on this occasion, afforded a guarantee, that if the true cause of the excitement could be removed, that peace, quiet and order could be immediately re- stored. As we walked from the rear of the Church to the front in Queen street, the cry met our ears on all sides, “let the Hibernia Greens withdraw” —“let the Hibernia Greens withdraw,” Mr. L walked to the door of the Church, and inquired tor the officer in command, who proved to be the cap- tain of the Hibernia Greens. Mr. L.. told him of the exigency of the case, and as he will himself acknow- ledge, kindlyand respectfuillyad vised his withdrawal. He acceded tothe proposition,and the people pledged them a safe conuct, and r ommended. ‘hat the rifle corps should accompany them to afford ad- ditional protection, The stipulations agreed upon were, that the Hibernia Greens should leave the chureh with open pans and arms reversed, the rifle corps acting as their guard. As 800M as It Was #s- certained that the Hibernia Greens had withdrawn, three cheers were given, and every man feit that the crisis had passed ; the utmost good feeling pre- vailed, and the crowd began rapialy. to disperse. About a quarter of an hour had elapsed, hen a aumber of individuals rushed into the crowd, in- forming ther that the Hibernia Greens had broken their faith by keeping powder in the pans of their muskets—that they had finally fired on those around them and shot down a number of indi- viduals—that one youth had been killed and seve- ral wounded. The effect of such astounding news upon the minds of the people was terrific, and then for the first time after the withdrawal of the Greene, demonstrations of violence were made. Onset after onset came, and yet the friends of order maintained their ground. At this junc- ture Alderman Mitchell rode up and enquired into the state of the case. Mr. Levin told him that he felt secure until the fatal fire of the Greens, which had changed the aspect of affairs—that after the alleged outrage of the Greens, he feared that he might not be able to save the church. Mr. Mitchell said that the Sheriff had a large body of men under his command, and he (Mr. Mitchell) desired to know if the protec- tors of the church needed aid. Mr. L. informed him that they did. 1t was indeed @ critical junc- = G, JULY 13, 1844: Price Two Ceuts. ture, occasianed by the conduct of the Hibernian Greens. Alderman Mitchell returned to the She- riff, informed hiva of the state of the case, when the Sherif! replied—**‘Mr. Levin has taken the re- sponsibility of protesting the Church, and now let him doit! ! ‘This was between one and two o’clock in the afteractom, at a critical moment, and thus it appears, that when aid was really need- ed, he refused to sead inf Li may be necessary to state that Mr. Levin left abe Church @ litle atter four o’clock ina state of great exhaustion, with the assurance of his tricds thatthe Church would be saved. {From the Philadelphia ledger, July 12.) The test mony against bravo (Col. Watmough) was given by Lieut. Dougherty, of the secoud com- pany of State Fencibles, who wee on dvty durig the recent riot. He stated that os Monday alter noon he met the defendant in Walnut evreci, and that he there said ‘ he would rot have pitied us 1.f we had all been shot down—that the military shot ‘hem down in eold blood.” On the subsequent day, at the custom house, speaking again in reference to the military, he would cut Colonel Pleasanton, and thought he also seid ** Gen. Cadwallader ;” and farther, “‘that they fought bravely, and with fifty such men he could have driven the military off the ground— that the rope was thrown across the street at or near the engine house, to throw the horses, and some were thrown down, and those brave fellows were all ia good humor, laughing at the time ” The witnesses were examined for the defencl- ant, who thought that the remarks were made in a joke. os binding the defendant over, the Recorder re- marked that the defence set up, 20. wit, that the language complained of was used in mere joke, wos one of the worst featuresof the case. He said that all would acknowledge. the high respectabih- ty of Colonel Watmough’s character. He now heid a responsible office under the go- vernment of the United States, and tor him to do acts such as had been disclosed by the testimony was certainly unexpected. — The precise charge laid in the warrant has not been made out, but the defendant has used lan- guage curing the times of intense excitement of an inflammatory character, in the preence of a sub- ordinate officer of the law, calculated to deter lum trom the performance of his duty. To call tnis a Joke, to joke in the midst of treason and muider, was an aggravation of the offence. After some further remarks ot a similar claarac- ter, the Recorder held hin to bail in $1000 in his own recognizance, to keep the peace for three months. ‘The Colonel submitted to be bound over, but at the same time he disclaimed any inten- tion to provoke a breach of the peace, or Weaken the arm of authority. [From Philadelphia Papers July 12) Is rr sot—The “Native” Philadelphia corres- pondent of the N. Y.

Monument To THe StaIn.—A monument is now proposed over the remains of the military slain in the late engagement with the rioters in Southwark. It is ulso proposed to make a handsome collection for the families thus deprived of support. We hope both will be done. When noble learted ana brave men stand up for the laws and for civil go- vernment, and are shot down like dogs by fero- cious and deluded beings who think the deed pa- triotic, and ure permitted to boast of it with impu- nity, itis time the public sentiment should take a tangible mode of showing gratitude to the deceased and to their living relatives. As Brig. Gen. Hubbell, of the Third Brigade, and his acting Aid, bearing despatches from Head Quarters, were passing down Queen sireet to the battle ground on Sunday evening, about 9 o’clock, peat were fired upon twice at the corner of Fourth and Queen streets A little further on, three mus kets were levelled at them from an alley, when an old gentleman recognized Gen. H.., and dy bis in terposition, saved him. Gen. Hubbell had hardiy rode ten steps farther before the Wayne Artillery, the flower company ot lis own brigade and a he- ruic Corps, Who were stationed at Third and Queen, hearing the ahots fired at the General, and suppos- ing they were fired »t the troops, and having order: tu shoot any ove that approvched, immediately leveiled at him. piain Fairiamb made a short rest at the word “ auu,” and just at the instaut Gen. Hubbell passed # lamp and the glitter of hi uniform was seen, aud he was again saved. The General remained on the ground all night. Bui hus Aid who went up to the city about 11 o’clock, was nearly beaten to death with brickbats. He was fired on at Second and South etreete—and we ourselves saw him pelted severely at Third and Pine, and watched a ruffian sneaking along the wall of St. Peter’s church with « pistol in his Daud to shoot at him. Truat or GreENLEar.—The examination of wit- nesses for the defence was resumed yesterday.— Mr, Eli Purnham stated the cause of the dispute between Greenleat and Gorman—the latter engaged to throw up & toad of manure from the celiar of the stuble jor twenty-five cents. After throwing up about Gorman complained that it was too hot knocked off, and demunded ninepence for what he had done. Greenleaf replied that he would not pay him anything unless he finished the job. High words passed, aud Gt propored to kh the matter out to any of the bystande lected the witness, who decided that unless he finished the load, he ought not to receive any pay. Gorman, with an oath, swore that he would not abide by this decision, but would have bis uinepence. Grewnleef then told him to go ahead Gorman continued to swear, and said, You've got to luok out for yourselt” He also told ieaf that he should not drive out of the city till he had paid him (Gorman). He then left the steble, and Green- leaf went to work, and finished the throwing up and load: ing the wagon. Greenleaf, after Gorman left, expressed apprehensions of violence from him, aud asked the peo- ple reund to keep an eye on the fellow. He said he was afraid that Gorman might throw a brickbat at him, and knock his brains out. The arguments on both sides were closed last evening. Chief Justice Shaw charged the jury this morning, cemmencing at 9 o’clock, and closing ‘at half past 11, when the Jury retired, and at 1 P.M. re- turned, and gave in a verdict of guilty of manslaughter.

Affairs among the Normons—Authentie Par- Uculare—Great Excitement. The Mormon war, says the St. Louis Era of the 2d inst., still causes great excitement on the Upper Mississippi. The Boreas brings us some additional! items of intelligence. The officiel statement of Gov. Ford confi:ms our previous info: mation as to the cowardly and lawless manner in which the imposters were murdered. It 18 surprising thar Gov. Ford, well knowing the solemn pirdge o) protection he gave to the Mormons, and the pre- vious excitement that existed against thea in the community, did not place a stronger guard, nid take more vigilant and efficient measures for thes protection, It might have been known beforehand that so small a guard could not protect the prison ers, from the Pats torrent of public indignation that was setting against them in that portion of the country. The Warsaw Signal seems to be of opinion that the war will not yet end, but that the ormon population must be removed; that they and the other citizens cannot live together in peace [From Warsaw Signal, June 29 ] On Tuesday evening, Gov. Ford had givengor- ders that all the troops should march to Nauvoo on Friday. On Thursday, the army was to rendez- vous at Golden's Poitit, about 5 miles from she ci- ty. The objec: for this visi was not made known, but rests entirely on surmise. On Thursday morn- ing a council of officers was culled in Carthage, and on eccount of the desire ot the troops irom Schuyler and McDonough, to return home, aud the tear that if the army were ma:ched into Nuu voo, it could not be controlled, it was determined immediately to disband the troops. This was uc- cordingly don’, with the exception of the Carthage and Augusta troop, und a company under Captain Singleton, who had possession of Nauvoo.—The troops from ol-ner counties who had been disband- ed, immediately returned to their homes, and Gov Ford, acco"npanied by the Augusta Dragoons, took up the lige of march for Nauvoo. About four o’elock, P, M., a company of about one hundred armed, men, marched to the jail in Carthege, and dem anded the prigoners. Arush was made on the Sards, who fired, but hurt nobody. They were immediately secured, and the men rushed up stairs to the room of the prisoners. For about two minutes the discharge of fire arms within the jail was very rapid, Finally, Joe Smith raised the window,* exclaimed, “Oh, my God,” and threw himself out. He fell heavily on the ground, and was soon deepatched. yrum was shot in the jail, There were two other prisoners, Dr Richards, who we learn was not hurt, and J. Tai lor, editor of the Nauvoo Neighbor, who received five balis, in his arms and legs. lmmediately on the work being done,the men fled. It was expec- ted that as so@n as the news reached Nauvoo, the Mormons would take vengeance on Carthage and Warsaw. The Messenger, however, who staried for Nauvoo met Gov. Ford returning to Carthege, and was not permitted tego further. The Governo) sent for Capt, Singleton’s men, who were in Nau voo, and proceeded to Carthage. ‘The Public Re- vords were removed to Augusta, and the women and children sent out of the town. Gov. Ford left for Augusta, und we learn this morning, that he proceeded te Quincy. In Warsaw, as soon as the news of the death of the two Smiths, was re- ceived, every thing was placed in. an attiude for defe‘ace, saat the inhabitants of the sursounding co.antry requested to come to our aid. A portion o1 ‘ae women and children passed over the river. Or Friday afternoon five companies from Quincy be- ing about 250 in number arrived on the Boreas. Many trom Missouri and Iowa, have also come to ouraid. We have three cannon, plenty of ammuni- tion, and we ure tully prepared for any attack which the Mormons can muke. By the stege driver from Nauvoo,we learn that about thirty men were sent for the dead bodies of Joe and Hyrum, and that they were to be buried on the same eve ning,with military honors. ‘What will be the final issue is yet to be uscertained—various surmise: are afloat; but our opinions, that either the old cite zensor the Mormons must leave ‘The cownty can not beguieted until the expulsion of one or the othe ts effected.

Gov.

They haye broken the pledges to the Gov ernor, disgraced themselves and the Srate to whic! they belong. They have crimsoned their peafidy with blood. The dead bodies of the Smiths wer conveyed to Nauvoo by order of the Governor yesterday. | It was supposed by many that the Mor mons on seging them would break away trom & restrainig and commence a war of extermination But noching of the kind occurred. They receive their murdered friends in sorrow—laid down the arms and remained quiet. Colonel Singleton anc his company of sixty men are still at Nauvoo, and the Mormons submit to their authority The 300 troops which lett our city yesterday on the Koreas are at present in Warsaw. A man was as sailed and knocked down with a musket in Warsaw yesterday, for presuming to express disupy otation at the murder of the Smiths. It will long be te gretied that things have taken the turn they have in relation to the Mormo Alter they had laid down theit arms, and submitted to the Tews, they were entitled to the protection of those laws.— Gov. Ford, in the neme ot the State, pledged then that protection, and he extended it to them so fa as was in hispower The conduct of the Govern or stands pre-eminently untarnished in this matter Party is lost eight of, as it should be, and all unite io award him the meed of praise. Several public meetings which have been held in this city during the excitement, have paseed resolutions approving of his course. Asthe troops were leaving our what! in the Boreasyesterday, his Honor the Mayor can forward and proposed three cheers for Gov. Ford which were given in a manner that made the we! kin ring. In what we save written above we would not have it underetood that our remarks iv relation to the assassination of the two Smiths, apply to the people of Hancock county generally The actors in the disgraceful transaction are pro bably confined to a_ tew desperate characters whic are determined to ride over the law to effect then object. A_ subscription is about to be entered into at St Louis, for the purpose of offering a reward of 2,000 dollars for the discovery of the assassin inthis cuse Heap Quarters, Quincy, June 29, 1844, To the People of Illinois: I desire to make a brief but true statement of the recent disgraceful affair at Carthage, in regard t the Smiths, 60 far as circumstances have come t my knowledge. The Smiths, Poseph and Hyrnm, have been assassinated in jail, by whom is noi known, but will be ascertained. 1 pledged myseli for their safety, und upon the assurances ot tha! pledge, they surrendered as prisoners, The Mor- mons surrendered the public arms in their posses. sion, and the Nauvoo Legion submitted to the command of Capt. dingleton, of Brown county, de- puted for that purpose by me. All these thing: were required to satisfy the old citizens of Han- cock, that the Mormons were peaceabiy disposed ; and to allay jealousy and excitement in their minds. lt appears however that the compliance of the Mormons with every requisition made vpor them, failed of that purpose. The pledge of secu rity to the Smiths, was not given upon my indivi dual responsibility. Betore { gave it, I obtatned » pledge of honor by @ unanimous vote from the offi cers and men under my command, to sustain me in performing it. It the assassination of the Smith was committed by any portion of these, they lave added treachery to murder, and have done all they could do to disgrace the State, and sully the public honor. % On the morning of the day the deed was comm: ted, we had proposed to mareh the army under im) command into Nauvoo, 1, however, discoverer on the evening betore, that nothing but utter de struction of the city would satisfy aportion of the troop; and that m we marehed into the city, pre texts would not be wanting for commencing host)! ities. The Mormons had done every thing requir- ed or which ought to have been required of them Offensive operations on our part would have been as unjust and disgraceful as they would have beer impolitic, in the present critical season of the year, the harvest and the 70s, For these reasons | de cided, in a council of officers, to disband the army, except three companies, two of which were retain ed as a guard for the jail. With the other compa ay T marched into Nauvoo, to address the inhabi- tants there, and tell them what they might expec in case they designedly or imprudently provokes a war. I performed this duty, as T think plainly aud emphatically, and then set out t retura to Carthage. hen L had marchec about three miles a messenger informed me oi the occurrences at Carthage. I hestened on — *The prisoners were not in calls, but in the private eon of the jailor, the windows of which] were x1 to that place. The guard, it is said, did their duty, bnt were overpowered. Many of tre inhabitants of Carthage had fled with their families. Others were preparing to go. I apprehended dunger to the settlements from the sudden fury and passion of the Mormons and sanctioned their movements in this respect.

[From the Cleveland Herald.) The Mormons held a political meeting in one of the beautiful groves that adorn our cily on turday afternoon, Some seventy-five persons as- sembled and listened with respeciiul attention. The principal speaker, Mr Wanters, assigned the reasons why the Lauer Day Sainis had resolved on a political organization independent of all other parties, the principal one being that they bed unsue- cesefully applied to all political parties for a redress of the wrengs and outrages commitied on their society. All had admitted that their cause was just, but could do nothing for them, A Jeng ad- dress trom General Joseph Smith, defining his po- sition, and giving an outline of his propored adn ine istration of the General Government, wasread, The object of the meeting seemed io be merely an ex- position of * Jeffersonian Democratic pruciples,” ag no action was taken or proposed by the leaders. The death of Gen. Smith of course mterrupts the arrangements by his followers for the Presi- dential campaign, and wall probably arrest turther political organization for the present. vormon preaching took place in the grove yeeier- day, and the meetings were conducted with deco- rum. No allusion was made by the epeakers on saturday or Sunday to the murder of the iwo Smiths, and in conversation they manifest but lit Ue exciieinent, and do not anticipate any inter- ruption ef ‘he progress of Mormonisin. One of them remarked that the “country would be ina wretched condition if there was but one prephet in the land,” aud we understand that Sidney Rig- don is nextin the prophetic euccestion, Inthe grove, toward evening, un Englishman, who had veen cchveried to Mormoniem, ard induced to emigrate from England to Nauvoo, gave an expo- sitionef the wretched condition of many cf the emigrauts \o the holy city, and of the tyranny ex- ercised by the rulers, He drew anything buta flattering picture of the condition and prospects of the deluded men and women who have embiaced the Mormon faith, aud spoke with apparent know edge and candor.

I will send you a short account of our celebra- tion in this place on the 4h. To bexin with, T aeed scarcely tell you that at sunrise the big gun poured forth its thunder, and all through the dey there was a good deal of firing of big and little cannon. The poor boys, however, have been creatly disappointed. The Common Council spoil- ed all theirtun by passing a jaw, prohibiting the sale of fire crackers, and the firing of them in the streets, This wns decidedly wrone—for the firing of crackers will keep more viviciy alive, in le minds of these bove, the 4th of July, than any hing else that can be done. About 10 o’clock, A.

How, the Declaration of American Indepen- jence was read by G. Bo Adrian, Etq., a bri ther othe Grand Marshal of the day, and both +eons of he late distinguished mathematician, Ur. Adrian, Then came the oration from the elegantund accem- lished orator and preacher, the Rev. Dr Davidson. Atteralluding most appropriately to the great epochs whieh had been celebrated by different natione, he went on to show the duty of celebrating the anni- versary of our independence—compared the present with our past condition, and then deduced some most important lessons from the valuable privileges, civil and religious, whieh we enjoy. Upon the whole his oration was just what was expectec, a most chaste and eloquent production. His congre- zation are more enraptured wih him than ever. (By-the-by, [ have heard a rumor that he is to ceive a call from one of your large ety churches. AilT have to say is that it will be pretty difficult 10 gethim ) After the exercises in the chureh, the procession again fo;med under the command of the Grand Marshal, end marched through some of the principal streets to Van Dyke’s mansion, where the procession was dismissed, and the citizens par- took of a most excellent ‘dinner.

After the cloth was removed several good toasts were given—one created quile a laugh—“The better part of John Tyler”—of course referring to his wile. There was one re- specting our new Constitution which called forh Mr. Randolph in a happy speech. The dinner vassed off well, giving great satisfaction, In the evening there was a grand dis; lay. of fire works, end as the flashes of light illumined the ieavens, they also seemed to show off to more ad- vantage the charms of some of our elegent dam- els.
