We have received by regular mail, accounts from the Great Salt Lake City, Deseret, to the 19th of April, contained in the journal printed there, ealled the Deseret News, No. 31, published half monthly, by W. Richards. It is filled with the minutes of the General Conference of the Chureh of Jesus | Christ, of Latter Day Saints, otherwise ealled Mor- mons; also, several epistles to the faithful—clear accounts of the weather—the political movements of the territory—interspersed with articles on the value of manure and the growth of beets, adver- | tisements, ordinances, lists of letters, notices, re- | movals, &c., &e.—all indicating a settled commu- nity, under a stable govermment, influenced by the new religion, and superiutended by the general government. The stride which the Mormons have mado in this country is wonderful, and certainly is deservii of some attention. Mormonism, asa sect, origi- vated in this State about 1830, or twenty years ego— thence passed to Ohio and Missouri, thence to Illi- nois, and finally settled down in the Salt Lake country, where it appears to be firmly established, | and where it numbers its adherents and devotees by thousands. It was composed of but very few when it was first started; but within a comparatively short time it has made remarkable progress. It has extended its operations, and instead of being confined to one place, it has spread itself to differeet parts of the country. Its principal resting place, however, is at Salt Lake, between the Rocky Moun- tains and the Sierra Nevada, a region which pos- sesses Vast agricultural and miueral resources, and is, in many respects, similar to Palestine, in the Holy Land. The increase of the Mormons in that place is remarkable, and, if they go on at the same rate, they will, before many years, be a powerful and influential sect. The communities which they have established in the Northwestern States do net exhibit the same increase, nor the same degree of order, quiet, and respectability, as that of the Salt Lake does. Beaver Island has recently heen made notorious in consequence of the gross superstition and villany of some of the ‘‘saints” as they cal) themselves, who are placed in the position of rulers; but when the wheat is sifted from the chaff there, and the villains are excommnnicated, the com- munity will, no doubt, recover its character, and Mormonism will be increased there, and in other parts of the Northwest, and similar regions. The rise and progress of Mormonism in this country presents a singular phenomenon in re- ligious fanaticism, blended with common sense and industrious habits. ‘They show that a revolution is at work inthe human mind on the subject of reli- | gion, of which they are only # part. It will asto- nish some of our readers when we inform them that Mormenism has, in this age of boasted intelligence, made more rapid progress, and has more adberents, than Christianity had in the same number of yea ‘The foundatioa of their faith is a book called the Mormon Bible, a work written by a man of genius, inhis hours of leisure, in the same vein, andin much the same language as is used in the Old Tes- tament. It is nothing, in fact, but a religious no- vel, professing to narrate the wanderings of one of the family mentioned in the Pentateuch. This book 0? fancy passed into the hands of the celebrated Joe Smith, who was shot in a row in Illinois. The “prophet,” as he is termed by his followers, came from Canandaigua, in this State, where he first promulgated the new religion. He was a very cunning and shrewd man. With money raised by mortgaging @ small farm, he had this book pub- | lisbed, and immediately after it appeared he com- menced bis career as its expounder,and the founder of the new religion. From Canandaigua he went to Ohio, thence to Missouri—then to Illinois, where he met his death inthe manner stated He and bis followers in Nauvoo, became obnoxiow: to the people of lino’ disturbance ensued, the blood of the saints was shed, and Joe Smith was killed. Finding no resting place in civilized parts of the country, the Mormons at length settled down inthe remote Sult Lake country. Since they went there, and since the discovery of the gold mines in Cali- fornia, they have risen to great power—increased their numbers to an amazing extent; have a terri- torial government, organized under the authority of the United States, and possess the seeds of fur- ther strength and power to an unlimited exten:. In many respects, the progress and oareer of the Mormons resemble those of the Methodists under Weeley and Whitfield, and the probability is that they will go on increasing, until they become one of the leading religious eects of the country, and of the world. At prevent they are characterized by | too much bigotry; but they will become more libe- ral, no doubt, in course of time, and be as nume- rous us any other Christian sect. Ixcnease or Crime in New Yoru.—By the report of the Secretary of State, which hag just been publichel, it appears that crime, duriag the lact few year, has been increasing, as regularly as our imports and exports, or the growth of our population. In ten years, we learn by this report, crime hus doubled ip this State. We have seen various causes alleged for thie deplorable result ; Lut none of them, in our opinion, are satis or reach the root of the evil. We suspect very wuch that the important revolu ion which has tuhken place in our system of common school educa- tion, during the last few years, has materially increascd juvenile delinquency, and crime of every egree. Under the impulses of philosophy and socialism, Which have operated very m on our | polit cians, ani on our elec‘ivns, for the last fifteen years, the school system of this State has been constructed entirely on philosophical principles, without regard to religion, revelation, Christianity, or any of those doctrines on which human society is best founded. In faet, under the present «ystem of education, all moral end religious in-truc‘ion cems to be banished from our schools, and the education of the youthful mind is confined merely to its intellectual and macerial developements. Materialiem—that modern sys‘em of philosophy, whiek ignores a future life, and looks on revelation as @ blank—has seized on our school system, and given a discetion to all the youthful exercises of the The consequenses of rearing the youthful gene- ration on intellectual or material priaciples merely, without reference to revealed rel gion, or Christian beginning to be seen in the extra ry growth and increase of crime which has becn doubled during the last ten yeurs—a space of time covered by these philo- 1, material, I more intellectual methods of instruction f + are Tne Case or re Cariot ‘ ~We have received « very polite note from Fotber Doherty, the Catholis clergyman of Springfield, eetting us right in regard to his piety, morality, purily, consistency, and in relation to the perfect propriety of his continuing to celebrate re- ligious vertices in the Catholic Church of Spring- field. Having been educateda Ca jie, and hav- ing been strictly brought up in that church, we bave a very great regard for Catholi: clergymen, and always endeavor to throw as big a cloak as pos sible over their delinquencies, when they permit them to be found out. If we have committed any mistokes in our views relative to Father Doherty's parity of character, they are amply corrected by the continuation of the report of hie case, from a Springfield jcurnal, which will be found in our Father Doherty, in the face of all the developements, and of the evidence of Miss Monagen, insists that he is perfectly pure and in- nocent ; and if he can make the public of Spring- field. the Catholic Bishop of Massachusetts, be we have nothing to say to the er gto the church and to the Hible, ERE AN IN Spring ol } columps to day returns from the error of his ways, is much better, in the eyes of Heaven, than » man who be- gine and ende life asa saint, without any of thore vatietioe which characteriee tha the mar yhe fe ‘ rieee, ath gb be ver year + did not show its effects until the ensuing May, when | literal hand, testify their regard for the mam, and their | jAtNs ip Bfly two seconde. Tye Cauironnta News.—The confirmation of the invelligence eoncerntig the disastrous conflagration ‘a San Francisco and Stockton, did not produce as much effect on the commercial interests of this city yesterday, as was expected. At least, there is no apparent alarm or perturbation in the leading com- mercial circles, on account of that catastrophe. ‘There is every reason to believe, however, that it will have a powerful influence on the standing and porition of all, in this city, who are connected with the California trade. Two-thirds of the loswes in | San Francisco and Stockton will, undoubtedly, fall on New York. It will be some time, however, be- fore they begin to operate in such # manner as will be palpable to the public eye. The great fire in | ‘this city, in December, 1835, although it destroyed _ property to the amount of twenty anillions of dollars, | end ruined half ofthe commercial men of that day, | the revulsion commenced; and even then the first | ‘break-down in consequence of it took place in New Orleans. This was succeeded here by a movement that smashed, in less than ten days, five hundred of the principal houses in the city. A multitude of | causes combined to produce thet terrible revulsion in commerce and trade. Unfortunately, the recent calamities in California are eccompanied by a re. vulsion in the cotton trade, which has been felt in New Orleans, and elsewhere in the Southern States, | to some considerable extent; and it may be still fur. ther felt, if the price of that staple continues to diminish in the great marts on the ether side of the Atlantic. A little gleam of light on this over. spreading darkness, is, however, to be found in the cheering accounts from the mines in California, which seem to increase in wealth from day to day’ as new discoveries are made. If the northern mining region of Mexico could be purchased from that decaying republic, at a reasonable pric?, and annexed to the United States, we would have a | never-failing source of supply from those minera) regions, which would place the commerce and trade of this country beyond the influence of all future re- | vulsions, and all competition in Europe and else- where. Tur Hammuin Festivan is likely to prove am era in the dramatic annals of this country. Every artiste of high repute, throughout the whole length and breadth of the land, has offered his or her services. Managers, almost | without an exception, have offered every member of their ' companies, and have testified, in the rmest terms, their | desire and determination to aid in paying this tribute of reepect and esteem to Mr. Hamblin. who has, for years past, dispensed with a liberal hand, in the days of pros- perity, yet, never in the hour of calamity, bowed down to afilietion—always presenting a bold front to misfor- tune, and by indomitable energy and perseverance, tri- umphing over obstacles that would have crushed an ordi- nary man, Now is the time, then, for those tradesmen and others who have received hundreds of thousands of | dcllars from him. to come forward at once, and, with a admiration of the actor and manager.

L—Racixa.—A race for $300 aside, half mile heats, came off yesterday afternoon, between b. hb. Fiddler and b. m. Jenny Lind, The mare was the favorite at twenty to eight. The horses appeared in fine condition, and made very excellent time, The wind during the race blew a gale, sweeping clouds of dust over the course, enough to blind both horses and riders. For the first heat, the start was as even as possibly could be, and both nags left the stand under whip and spur. | Before they paseed the drawgate the mare was clear of Fiddler. and with every jump she widened the space be- tween them, until, when within s hundred yards of the post. the was taken in band, She won by two or three lengths in fifty-two seconds anda half, The second the mare taking the lead in a bound or two, and, retaining it to the end ‘Time. fifty three seconds. A great muny old patrons of racing were on the track to witness the above men who have Jittle relish for trotting, bat who mirsa run, if it isonly a quarter. There were various rpeculations among the eld turtites as to the probability of ever having another four mile day on Long Islana, and the general impression seemed to be that the time for such sports had departed forever, An effort, how- ever, We understand, will be made this summer to induce some of the owners of Southern stables to vislt this vicinity next fall ; and, by three days good running. en- deavor to infuse the same spirit into the present gene- ration that was porsesred by the members of the Jockey Club. With a little exertion, two meetings each year | would be well patronized, —Immediately after the race, a trotting con- urse of $150. mile heats, best three in #, between Borton Girl, Honest John, Fanny, and Mount Mcrris, which was won by the first named in three straight heats, The time will bear comparison with any made this season, With each succeeding race Boston Girl beecmes mere popular with the frequenters cf the trotting track. She was the favorite yesterday, and in some instances, against the field. First Heat_— Fanny took the lead, Boston Girl second, John up.and Mount Morris about as badly off.

The bay mare was four lengths shead of John at the (uarter pole, in 40 seconde; but on the backstretch she broke, and John lapped her at the balf,in 1:19. Around the lower turn.
