It is probable, from present appearances, that the price of cattle and mules be higher here than last season, owing to the in Made yy the stock to supply last year’s emigration. Everything else necessary to com- pletethe emigrent’s. outfit will be sold lower than lost year, the competition being greater. The Frontier @uardian, the organ, ot the Mormons at o Bluffs, advises all persons who intend meking that place the starting point, to bring their eettle with them, asthe Mormons will need all they have in moving themselves to the Salt Lake.

The [ndian, however, refused to escape, and to-day underwent an exargination before the authoriues, which, to the great joy of his forest brethren, who manifesied much sympathy tor him, resulted in his being set at liberty. Lately, noted manufacturer of bogus money, residing at Council Blufis, among the Mormons, was arrested for counterfeiting, but made his escape. The press used by him in his operations was captured, and 18 in the hands of the officers. He was, perhaps, the most skillfal among the notorious gang of counterteiters who have so long infested 1 ea part of this State, and has pve 's passed here under the name of Mulhol- jand.
