In plain wor J», end to give you aome idee of aflaire hore, the feeling has reached the culminating point, and we are on the eve of open hoatili- ties. This haa been brought snout hy the firm and manly stand of the two Judges of the United Statea Diitrict Court, Sinclair and Gradlobaugh, who. in their endeavors to ferret out the iiumarouR murders that have been committed, have excited the apprehen sions of the Mormons, who have done all in their power to prevent it. The rmson lor (ilia ia obvious ; a full investigation might implicate aonto ol the lending men in the Church, or, at all events, show dint these dreadful outrages were committed by the rimrcli. Mormon Grand Juries have failed t<» them by ihu Judgoa.and oven when they did find a bill for an oflcnco of un infeiior grade, Mormon juries would acquit. The ureal theatre of s rife, and which hat radiated throughout the whole Territory, is at Provo, about forty mites distant from tiiia ciiy, where Judge Cradluhnugh ia trying to b.'ld court; I siy trying, for, although ha hnnheCn sitting now nearly n month, noth ing line b?un done. Tim B.sliopa nf the Church and many of the people have fled, their consciences probably a iggeeiing the propriety ol such a course. Judge Cradle- biugh, seeing (lie mnnileatationa when he opened Ins court, made a requisition upon (Jon. Johnaion for a company of troops to guard prisoner* und protect the livea of wit- uesaea, which had been threatened. To ihia requiaition Gen. Johnston promptly responded, and they havo been there ever since. Thia anfeguard to the court, wit- hessea, aud prisoner* has aroused the indig nation of all innruiondotn, and they talk "big.” An appeul wa* made to Governor Gumming, under the impreasion that he could Iihvo them removed ; and forthwith a solemn protest i* issued, protesting against thn nrooncu of tho troops. The Governor had linen down to Provo n few days since, and w uile there wrote a letter fo Gen. John- ■ton, icqtmaiing him to withdraw them or remove them to a greater distance from the city. (Jen. Johnston declined 1» interfere in the matter, and sta rd that the troops were there under a requisition from Judge Crndlebeugh, and were bobject to hie orders. Tliis wo* a '•Dimmer.” A* the excitement increased, and threats ol tlie militia and people riaiitg to exp' I tho troops, Gen. JohiiHto.'i tent up nine additional companies un liis own lio.'k, in case ol n i outbroak, to protect the company which was there by ordorol the court, aud they camped six miles distant. Within thu last lew days, however, thing* have assumed such an attitude that it wa* duentsd prudent to reinovo them three mild nearer. Should there be a col lision look out for "tall timber." The Nnuvoo Legion hure aro, l understand, pre paring thomsulves for any cmurgency j ot rather, aheald an emergency occur, prepar ing thumaelvea to be "wiped out.” The next item of interest (s that there is not only a difference betwocn Gen. Johnston end Gov. Cuintning in relation to their res pective power*, but them is an open division and rupture between the civil ofliccrd, be tween tho Executive and the Judiciary. This ia (fio Mato ol affairs at present, and you may well imagine it ia not very agrees- bln.

At a session of the United States Court hold on tho 30th ol March, Judge Cradle- haugli severely denounced Gov. Cuinmiog'a proclamation. Ho aaid : "I have received a document from AWxod Gumming, Governor ol thia Territory, which in it* reading purports to lie a proclamation, while In the body it would seem to be a kind ol proltst. Instead ol being addressed to thu General commanding thu department ol Ulull, it aesmatu bu intended lor the public at large.

He also euya that the pres ence of these soldiers has u tendency not only to terrify the inhabitant* and disturb the peace ol the Turritory, but also to tub vert tho ends ol justice by causing the in timidation of witnesses and jurors.
