GOVERNOR CUMMING. Governor Alfred Cumming, of Utah, is a native of Avgueta, Georgia, where he spent his youth in eace and his early manhood in affluence. Engaging in mercantilo affairs, in order to increase his ompie estate, he becama bankrupt in the digastrous crisis of 1837, at which time he was among the most prominent citizens of Augusta, and but a short time previous its Mayor. He wai universally respected as a friend to the suffering, and on the occasion of his native city being visited by an epidemic, stood his grouad like » man when othars were fleeing for their lives. He established hos- pital, buried the dead, and ministered to the sick, Oo the unfortunate result of the crieis of 1837, he deter- mined to leave his native place, and passed long years of service in the swamps of Fiorida, ia the Iodian territory and n Mexico, attached to the army. As anaidtoGen Taylor at Monterey he achieved some bonor. He struggled for yesrs to collect sufficient mouey to pay his debts, and after returning to Augosta, just long enough to take the requisite receipts, waa off agein. He served faithfully several years as Soperictencent of Indian wffairs, and it was ia ‘thiz position that be attracted Mr Buchansa’s attention. Weether «8 a complimentary title, or in view of his baving held that position, he is eoretimes fa:niliarly called “The Jucge” and having, e8 we have shown, seep con siderable of Western life in his early manhood, aad baing regurded a8 a man of tufficient herve for the position, be wes selected ip 1857 by Presideut Buchanaa as the Governor of the Territory, to proseed to Sait Lake City with the army. Governor Cumming is of a weil knowa family in Georgia His brother, Coloae!

Chevalier Forney, of the Philadelphla Press, 05 well as some other “little villains” im tho uowa paper limo, appears to take a deep interest im the private affairs of Mr, Bounett, proprictor of the New York Hurarp, It would be as well for him psr- heps to attend to his own concerns, which, ascord ing to all accounts, and judging from appo.rances, want looking after, His pewspaper, in particular, requires some supervis'on. H» seems to leave its management pretty much in the hands of an ignoramus from the High: lands of Scotland, or the Isle of Styo, on the Scottish const, where tho natives live on the flesh of donkeys, This fellow, we understand, claims to belong to the clan Mac- kenzie ; but the clan called him Sholtio Mackcenzio— which being put into Kaglish means Donkey Mackenzto— sheltie’being the nawe applicd to a species of donkey in the High!ands of Scotland, the Shetland islands, and other little barren islands on the coast, The clan drove him out becauee he was not of the pure breed. So he wandered to Ireland, thence to England, aud after somo abortive efforts in Grub streot, at last came to New York ‘This literary chiffonier, a retailer of stalo jokes and stupid avecdotes, whose most remarkable foature is their want of any semblance of probability, faiilng to bold a position on the New York preas, was picked up by Chevalier Forney to do his dirty wo:k—a very suita- ble employé of the presiding genius of poor Pierce’s kitchen. This ignorant Sheltie devotes two oditorial arti- cies to Mr. Bennett's property on Washington Hoights, and In one of them he gays:— “Mr. James Gordon Bennett, of the New Yori Herat, Iately purchased a quarter acre of land in a suburb of New York called Washington Heights, on which he has erected one of the shanties which Cockdeys call m “wilia.”? By the way, we recentiy saw, by a report of « trial in one of the New York courts, that tha said afr. Bonnett, having omtited to pay some ot the coat of this coltage, hata verdict against him for the amouat due.”’ Pe hap? ip so smalla compaas as this extract it would be impossible to find fo many stapid Liew. Io the first place, Mr, Bonwett erected no sottage or houss whatever, The property had an excellent houge on it whea he bought it, and in that he lives, It if four stories high and spacious in proportion. Sscondty, Mr, Bonnett did not purchars & quarter of an acre of land, bus forty acres, every dollar of which is paid in full. Thirdly, bo was not sued for any of the cost of bis house; but be was sued for other work—some $70, a mere bsgatelle—since done uo- der a con'ractor, whe, refusing to pay a demand of workimaa employo%, the Iatier took advantage of the mecbanics’ Hien law in this State, which gives workmen who are not paid by the contractor a .claim oa the pro- porty itself, Sheltie koow, or ought to have knowa this, very well, but it Jid not suit 1g purpose to tel! the truth.
