A feature of great interest in the next Congress, will be the number of members and delegates from the new States and Territori First of all, the Mormons in the Basin of the Great Salt Lake, have found tume, in'the intervals between their prayer meetings and their labors in eultivating wheat and potatoes, to organise a State | government, the capital of which is the New Jeru- | salem, laid out on a large scale, and built of sun- burnt bricks. They have erected a political plat- torm, and appointed a delegate to Congreas—Mr- | A. W. Babbitt—who has crossed the Rocky Moun. tains and the great Plains, and is ready to report himself to the House on the first Monday in December next. His report will be curious and imteresting. He is the organ of the Latter Day Saints, who, by pre-emption right—the organic Jaw in the West—have assumed the sovereignty of | the Great Basin, and defined the natural limits of @ new State, covering an area ten times the surface of New York. The history of the Mormon emigration to, and settlement at, the Salt Lake, is one of the novelties of the age, and shows what a homogenecus com- munity, by dint ef hard labor, faith and prayer, may accomplish. The gay Cavaliers of James- paseed resolutions, and appointed Hugh Smith their delegate to Congress, to make known their grievances, and to ask redress. . Two thousand miles to the north, another terri- tory, Minnesota, is rapidly progressing to the proportions of a State. Danes, Norwegians, and Germans, by whole communities, are mixing in with the substratum of American settlers, and towns ofa thousand inhabitants spring up out of the woods, in the course of afew weeks. Mr. H. Sibley, the delegate from that territory, will astonish the members from the old States with the growth of St. Peter and St. Paul, as much as will the Hon. Mr. Babbitt with the prosperity of the New Jerusalem. Such are the splendid resuits of our free institutions, an enterprising people, and plenty of room. The mileage of these several delegates and members, for their journey to Washington, will Pr robably be— For the two Senators and two Representatives from California, via Cape Horn, at $7,200 each. . , $25,800 Oregon delegate, overlaud....

For the Total mileage. «6... eee sees oe + 6 $32,800 In addition to these, we shall have several agents and missionaries from Nebraska, and the Indian territories west of Arkansas, to say nothing of the lobby members from Cuba and Canada. We apprehend that there will be no matenal difficulty with respect to any of the territories, ex- cept New Mexico. The claim of Texas to that territory, and the determination of the free soilers to resist it, and to enforce the Wilmot proviso, will concentrate the quarrel on the slavery ques- tion upon Santa Fé. The hostile attitude between Mr. Benton and Mr. Calhoun, on the claim of Texas, will probably exasperate the opposiag par- ties to the most serious excitement ; but our pro- gress and expansion are too grand, and our destiny as a confederation is teo sublime, to admit of the absurdity of a dissolution. The danger is immi- nent; but we rely upon the discretion of General Taylor, and the moderate men of all parties, to preserve the harmony of the Union, and to pro- mote the prosperity of the new States and territo- ries—not forgetting the New Jerusalem. Canada and Cuba must bide their time. Tue New Presivent or Corvmnra Coriagr— His Past ano His Furvre.—The announcement has been made, several days past, that Mr. Charles King has been elected President of Columbia Col- lege, by quite a considerable majority. Oa the first trial he came within one of being elected ; but on the second (Judge Betts, his antagonist, having declined) the majority was much mere in hia favor —votes 19. Mr. King is a well known journalist in this com- munity, of some thirty years standing. For many years past—from 1819 to 1847—he was connected with the New York American, and latterly with the Courier and Enquirer. A few days betore his election to the Presidency of the College, he an- nounced his withdrawal from editorial life altoge- ther, and expressed a certain degree of penitence for the sins he has commiyed during his career as ajournalist. These, his sins and errors, have not only been forgiven him, but he has been lauded by Dexaprut SramBoat Exrtosion.—In the Herald of yesterday,we published a telegraphic report from New Orleans, of a dreadtul steamboat explosion, which occurred in that city on the 16th instant. It appears that “ the steamer Louisiana, bound to St. Louis, when about starting from her wharf, burst both her boilers, shattering her to atoms, and aleobadly injuring the steamers Storm and Bostona, that were lying alongside.” All three boats were crowded with passengers, and the loss of life and the list of the wounded present a most appalling aggregate. The killed, it is feared, will exceed two hundred, besides many dreadfully wounded. The ceptain is bound over in the suin of ¢8,000, to answer the charge of carelessness, as the cause of the shocking disaster; and, if found guilty, should be punished to the utmost extremity of the law. We might cite fa dozen cases occurring on the Western waters within a few years past, of explo- sions as the steamers were leaving the wharf. The reason 18 obvious. While the boat is stand- ing, the pumps not being kept in motion, the water is exhausted in the boilers, they become heated, and with the first few revolutions of the wheela, the water which is thrown into the boilers is in- stantly converjed into steam, and an explosion fol- lows as naturally as from the igaition of a barrel of gunpowder. Such explosions, therefore, must be the result of carelessness, in neglecting to keep the boilers well supplied with water while the boat is lying at the wharf and the furnaces are heated to the highest degree. Let this case be sifted to the bottom, and if carelessness 1s proved, let the offenders be made an example of to prevent a recurrence of such calamities for the future. Avyorner DirLomatic Rurrure.—From the let- ter of our Washington correspondent, which we publish to-day, it appears that Mr. Clayton has an affair on-hand with the Swedish Minister of Fo- reign Affairs, of the same complexion precisely as that with M. De Tocqneville. He has had a “sharp correspondence” all round the world, but the worst, it is likely, has yet to come, in the set- tlement of the Nicaraguan affair and thet obacco claim. and gives a world of trouble. We think so too. Mr. Clayton is better qualified for the stump, ia Delaware, than for the desk of the State Depart- ment. He 1s a shrewd politician, but a feeble statesman. ‘The stump is his vocation. Let every man stick to his trade. ADVANTAGES OF THE TELEGRAPH—ANNIMILATION or Srace.—We announced telegraphically, yester- day, that the America’s news was received in New Orleans on the 16th inst. She arrived at Halifax her news was in New Orleans one day in advance of her arrival at this port. The news started from Halifax, went to New Orleans, stopping ut all the intermediate towns and cities, and the announce- ment of its receptien came back, in the short space of forty-eight hours. But for the necessity of re- writing at twenty or thirty places, the feat would have been accomplished in one or two hours. News was, in this brief space of time, dispatched a distance of about five thousand miles!

The judge, however, made ample smends for the leniency of the jary, for he sentenced both to State Prison for 18 months. ‘There are laws in New Jersey, and judges too! THE INTERMENT OF THE REMAINS OF COLONEL DUNCAN. On Friday morning, a8 we stated on Saturday, the Light Guard, Captein Vincent, and the committee of arrangements, with a deputation of citizens from Cornwall, escorted the remains of Colonel Dancan to their fival resting place in Orange county.

VOTE OF THE ANTI-RENT COUNTIFS. As the vote of the anti-rent counties, situated on or near the Hudson River, has decided the election of the candidates on the State ticket,in this State, the following tables, showing the vote of those counties at different periods, will be found interesting. We first give the comparative votes for Judge of the Court of Appeals and Comptroller at the recent elec- tion; the anti-renters having adopted the democratic candidate for the former office, and the whig eandidate for the latter, COMPTROLLER.

This brief history certainly does not furnish a remarkable evidence of the bri at journalism in its manager. To establish a leading journal is better evidence of genius in that line, than to destroy one—to give a new existence, rather than to take away life by @ species of slow pois: Yet we do not doubt that Mr. Chas.
