Bnl-cli and Robert.
Our advertising readers have noticed
the recent accession to the popular es
tablishment of J. W. Btincn. Mr.
Robert has became a partner in the firm,
and will devote,iris attention to the
business. We have frequently alluded
to this as a desirable place to buy Boots
and Shoes, and we are gratified to per
ceive that it is likely to increase in its
claims to popular favor.
The Dust.
Has any one ever estimated the dam
age resulting to merchandise in our city
from the clouds of dust that infest the
whole atmosphere during all dry peri
ods? Has any one ever computed the
extra time devoted to dusting goods,
counter,clothes and furniture,along any
of our public streets? Has any one ev
er noticed the depressing influence of
the dust-laden atmosphere in ap
proaching the city from the suburbs ?
It is really a great trial to weak lungs,
and detracts immensely from the com
fort of our otherwise healthy and desi
rable city. It drives hundreds out of
town during the summer, who would
otherwise spend the summer and their
money among us. All this dust may be
dispensed with at an outlay of much
less than the annual loss occasioned by
it to the city.
It is refreshing to imagine that even
Broad street, our beautiful and spacious
leading thoroughfare, were supplied
with water sufficient to lay the dust.—
How cool it would be—and how the la
dies would throng it of an afternoon —
and how much pin money would find
its way into the money drawers of our
merchants, in the dust of which the
owners might now write their names.
If the city continues supinely to
wait for water to come booming down
all the streets, will not the merchants
of Broad unite and sprinkle the por
tion of that street between the Markets,
at least, that those who desire it may
get an occasional inspiration of hcath
ful and invigorating air ?
Ruiusey ami Newcomb’s Campbell
Minstrels.
This inimitable troupe of harmonists
and Negro delineators will give three
performances at Concert Hall, com
mencing Thursday, 27th inst. A Wes
tern paper of a late date, in speaking of
the troupe, says:
Ronse’s Hall was filled to overflowing
on Saturday evening, with an intelli
gent and appreciative audience, and we
doubt whether there was a lady or gen
tleman in that vast crowd, but went to
their homes delighted with the enter
tainment. Tonight there will be an
other exciting performance by this un
rivalled troupe, with an entire change
of programme, giving another oppor
tunity of enjoyment to all those, who
have a taste for exquisite melody, com
bined with fun, humor and novelty.
Master Bobby is certainly the most
precocious little genius we have ever
seen in a concert room, and,
‘ You'd scarce expect one of his age.
To appear so well upon the stage,
nor believe it either, unless you had
witnessed his ease, self possession and
"race, and listened to his beautiful
ballads, sang with so much skill and
feeliug. Unlike many bands of profes
sional singers in this country, the mem
bers of the Campbell troupe are them
selves gentlemen, skilful in their voca
tion, and nothing is allowed in their
performance* that would injure the
feelings of the most fastidious.
Bitt we are exceeding our limits, and
have only to advise our friends to secure
their tickets early. Arrangements will
be made for seating the ladies, so that
the crowd who will undoubtedly be
present, can all be comfortably accom
modated .

The Latest [ tall News.
hurther Statements of Mr. Gerrish-Letter
from Mr. Gilbert—The Submission of the
Mormon. not yet Certain-Gov. Gumming
Mitten by a Dog Supposed to be Mad.
We had a further conversation, yes
terday, with Mr. Gerrish, and received
from him a more satisfactory account
than was made public through the pa
pers yesterday morning. His additional
statements explain the various contra
dictory accounts, that, for a day or two
past, have been coming from Fort Lea
venworth.
Mr. Gerrish communicated with no
person in Leavenworth but Secretary
Hartnett. The information then, by
dispatches received here, was derived
from no other source but the letter to
Col. Rich, and the statements to Mr.
Hartnett. So the news received has
been exaggerated, and is not official.—
The truth amounts simply to this.
Gov. Gumming left Camp Scott on
the oth April for Salt Lako City. The
object of his mission to this city is not
known. Mr. Gerrish says it was ru
mored at the Camp that the Governor
had asked for an escort from Col. John
ston, but the Col. refused, saying if any
escort went, it must be the whole army,
l’he Governor, under a Mormon escort,
was met, forty-five miles beyond the
Camp, by Mr. Gilbert. At Salt Lake
City they were making preparations to
receive the Governor. This is all we
have, that is reliable, from Mr. Gerrish.
The St. Joseph Gazette, of the 15th, |
contains tho following which throws.
some light on the matter, and does not
look much like peace with the Mor
mons.
By private letter from Camp Scott,
dated March 23d, we learn that Lieut.
Kane, who was dispatched byway of
California to Salt Lake City, by the
President, on a mission of peace to
Brigham Young, had reached Col.
Johnston's camp. We believe this en
voy is a brother of the celebrated Dr. j
Kane, and is the same wiio formerly
figured at Council Bluffs, when that
town rejoiced in the name of Kanes
ville. He remained about ten days in |
Salt Lake City, but effected nothing
with Ilriglmm Young and the Mormons.
He says the Saints have altered greatly!
since he knew them in the States. It!
was believed there that no arrangement
could be made with the Mormons, that
they were determined to submit to no
terms that were likely to meet with the
approbation of the agents of the Gov
ernment.
Col. Johnson had removed his camp
to Fort Bridger and Col. Cook was on
Smith's Fork.
The impression there was that no
movement toward the valley would he
made by the army until July. It is
hence quite certain that the peace com
missioners will reach Salt Lake, and
every opportunity will be afforded these
high handed otfenders to send in their
regrets and thus defraud the devil of
his just deserts.
The Weston Weekly Platte Argus, of
the 14th, has the following, which also
contributes towards a correct under
standing of the matter. The letter of
Mr. Gilbert is of particular interest:
“We learn that Mr. Blasingame, who
has been with Kincaide & Livingston,
reached Atchison on Wednesday with
the mail direct from the army! Mr.
j Blasingame reports that Gov. Cum
ming started on the sth of April to go
j into Salt Lako City.
Clapt. Marcy, who was sent to Santa
Fe for stock, wrs sent on his way to
Camp Scott. It does not look as tho’
Col. Jolmston intended moving on with
ids troops until re-enforced.
Tho peace commissioners will, in all
probability, reach iris command before
a move is attempted by the army.
J Since writing the above, we have
jbsen permitted to peruse a letter from
Mr. Gilbert to his family in Weston.—
He left San Francisco on the 3d of
March, stayed two days and a half at
Salt Lake City, and was kindly treated
while there, though Brigham was not
very communicative. Brigham had
moved all his family and children out
of tile city. Mr. Gilbert met a large
number of families going South, and
some coming in the opposite direction,
and they all seemed very much bewil
dered. Mr. Gilbert met Gov. Cumming
under a Mormon escort, on Weber ri°
ver, going towards Salt Lake City.—
He had proceeded forty-five miles on
the route. At Salt Lake City they were
making great preparations to receive
Gov. Cumming.
Brigham granted Mr. Gilbert a pass,
which reads literally as follows :
Utah Territohy.
To ail to whom these presents shall
come, greeting :
Albert Gilbert, of the firm of Gilbert
& Gerrish, and lately merchants in this
city, is hereby permitted to pass freely
and safely to the United States troops
at Bridger's ruins.
Given under my baud at Great Salt
Lake City, the sth day of April, A. D
1853.
(Signed) BRIGHAM YOUNG.
Governor and Superintendent of In
dian Affairs.”
Mr. Gerrish says that Governor Cum
ming was bitten, on the 25th of March,
in the right arm, by a dog that was
supposed to be mad. The dog attacked
several and was finally killed. The
Govornor was quite fearful and dis
tressed about the matter. The Armvj
are living quite comfortably on rations
of thirteen ounces of flour and two
pounds of bad beef, and had enough to!
keep them comfortably till the first ot j
June. The following extra, from the!
office of the Leavenworth Daily Times, j
May 14th, was received yesterday eved
uing:
A special messenger arrived yester
day from Camp Scott, bringing the im
portant news that Governor Cumming)
bad entered Sait Lake City, without j
troops, and tiiat his authority had been
fully recognized by the Mormon offi- i
Cigls. He brings dates to April 10th.
Not oniy was no resistance offered,
but none was contemplated, Brigham)
Young was as tame as a chiid. Thu)
taints had no mission of vengeance!
from the j,otd to deliver to the people. I
Simply Governor Cumming entered the!
city of the temple, and the temple
itself, and Mormonism bowed its head
in submission.
Os course the troop.* were in readiness
to act, and this the Danites knew full!
well.
Governor Cumming entered into Salt)
Lake City April Ist, by invitation. Most
of the .Mormons —men, women and
children—had emigrated South, or were
preparing to do so. Their destination
is not given. The majority very likely
will scatter, and settle on the Pacific
slope, or if they cling together, will
seek a home in Mexico. The messen
ger »?ys, ‘‘the Mormons had made no
prepai&tjon for war, and had planted
no crops in Utah,” showing their pur
pose to have been to break up in Utah,
and either to scatter or to emigrate into
Mexico
This news is unofficial, but is con
sidered reliable at the fort.
N. B.—Private letters received here
and .at the fort says that the point of
destination of the Mormons is Sonora,
in Mexico. Doubtless they have been
preparing (all of them that mean to
stick together) for this step for some
time, and that, too, with the full knowl
edge and assent of the Mexican Gov
ernment.

The Claiborne Advocate of the 11th
says :
During the past week the weather
has been decidedly unfavorable to the
farming operations of our planters,
cloudy, rainy and too cool for the season.
The crops of the parish have suffered
greatly from the recent cool and wet
weather. Unless we have a change in
the weather very soon, the crops of the
; parish inust necessarily be cut short to
j a considerable extent. Many planters
i have not finished planting, and the
! crops planted are suffering greatly from
the wet weather which has prevented
i their proper cultivation.
The Natchitoches Chronicle of the 15th
says :
There is still sufficient water for the
; navigation of our river by the largest
steamboats, and the high stage of the
Mississippi will doubtless cause Red
i river to continue navigable for a con
j siderable time to come,
j The Alexandria Democrat of Tuesday
' last says :
Red river at this point is falling rapid
ly, considering the high stage of the Mis
sissippi. The levee near Simmsportbas
broken, and our mail communication
by land with the mouth of the river is
cut off. No mail reached us last week
from below, save per steamer National,
which passed up Thursday evening.

The New Orleans Picayune of Saturday
contains the following news by the Ca

Much indignation was felt in Havana,
"’ith regard to the late outrages perpe

fested.
The sugar market is dull ; on hand
at Havana and Matanzas 280.000 boxes,

Great Problem
■ Solv e«l I—-DR. MORSE’S INVIGORATING COR
DIAL. The dyspeptic patient, whose stomach
has lost the power of duly converting food into a
1 life-sustaining element, is relieved by a single
| course of this extraordinary tonic. The gastric
fluid re acquires its solvent power, and the crude
nutriment, which was a load and a burthen to
the sufferer, while his digestive organization was
paralyzed and unstrung, becomes, under the j
wholesome revolution created in the system, the
basis of activity, strength and health.
The nervous sufferer, while tormented bv the j
. acute, physical agony of Neuralgia, Tic-doloreux!
; or ordinary headache, afflicted with vague ter- (
rors, wakened by periodical tits, threatened with |
paralysis, fborne down and dispirited by that |
terrible lassitude which proceeds from a lack of
' nervous energy, or experiencing any other pain
| or disability arising from the unuatural condition
, of the wonderful machinery which connects cv
. cry member with the source of sensation, mo
tion and thought—derives immediate benefit
i fr° m the use of this Cordial, which at once calms,
invigorates and regulates the shattered nervous
organization.
t l emales who have tried it are unanimous in
declaring the Elixir to be the greatest boon that
« woman lias ever received from the hards of
, medical men.
Morse’s Invigorating Elixir has a direct, im
j mediate and astonishing effect upon the appetite.
While it renews the strength of tho digestive
powers it creates a desire for the solid material
r which is to be subjected to their actiou. As an
appetiser it has no equal in tho Pharmacopia.
If long lile and the vigor necessary to its cn
■ joyment are desirable, this medicine is indeed ol
i precious worth
i Its beneficial effects arc not confined to cither
i se * °r to any age. The feeble girl, the a’.liug
wife, tho listless, enervated youth, the overworn
man of business, the victim of nervous depres
sion, the individual suffering from general de
bility or from the weakness of a single organ
will all find immediate and permanent relief from
the use of this incomparable renovator. To
those who have a predisposition to paralysis it
will prove a completo and unfailing safe-guard
against that terrible malady. There are many
• perhaps who have so trifled with their constitu
tion that they think themselves beyond the reach
of medicine. Io»t not even those despair. The
1 Elixir deals with disease as it exists, without ro
-1 lerence to the causes, and will not only remove
| the disorder itself, but rebuild tlie broken con
stitution

SIT Oxygenated Hitters,
A SURE CURE FOR DYSPEPSIA —The history
of this remarkable medicine, and its astonishing
success in obstinate cases of Dyspepsia, Asthma,
and General Debility of the System, places it
among the most wonderful discoveries in medi
cal science, and has given it a reputation far be
, yond any remedy known for these complaints,
in .ill their various forms.
The Oxygenated Bitters contain nothing which
can intoxicate ; and the medicine has no simi
larity whatever to tho various alcoholic mix
tures disguised as “Bitters,” being purely a
medicinal compound, iu which are combined the j
most valuable remedial agents, and a peculiar
oxygenated property, hitherto unknown, but
highly efficacious in all complaints arising from
weakness and derangement, or prostration of
the stomach and system generally. It is a mild
and agreeable tonic, removing, all disagreeable
symptoms, and assisting nature in her efforts to
restore ihe impaired powers of the system.

6*T Coloring Fluids for the
Hair are Dangcrotiß.—Prof. Wood’s Hair
Tonic restores the color, not by the nitrato of
silver process, but by a restoration of the
healthy functions upon which the original and
natural color of the hair aud its moisture, its !
loss, its life, and consequently its original ' •
beauty depended. Prof. Wood, at tho age of!
thirty-sevcu years, was as grey as a man of
eighty, and his hair was dry, thin and dead.
Now ho has not a single grey lock upon his
crown, nor is his hair thin or dry, but soft, pli
able and moist as that of a child of five years.
This preparation acts upon the roots, for after
un application that portion of tho hair nearest
the scalp is l'ouud restored to the original color,
whatever it was, while the ends ol the hair are
gray. Try Wood’s Hair Tonic , and do not ap
ply any other till after you have this. With
this resolution will never have occasion to use a
hair dye.

THE LIVER
INVIGORATOR!
PREPARED BY DR. SANFORD’S
COMPOUNDED ENTIRELY FROM
<3- TJ JVI S> ,
IS ONE OF THE REST PURGATIVE
and Liver Medicines now before the public,
that acts as a CATHARTIC, easier, milder, and
| more effectual than any other medicine known.
| It is not only a Cathartic, hut a Liver rerne v
acting first on the Liver to eject its morbid inaV
I ter, then on the stomach and bowels to carry off
. 1 that matter, thus accomplishing two purposes
effectually, without any of the painful feelings
experienced in the operations of most Cathartics
It strengthens the system at the same time that
it purges it ; uud when taken daily in moderati
doses, will strengthen and build ,'t up with un
usual rapidity.
I : : _
The Liver is one of
the principal regula
tors of the human
body, and when it per
fo’ ms its f unctions
well, the powers of the
system arc hilly do
veloped. The stomach
is almost entirely dc
. pendent on the healthy
action of the Liver for
j the proper perform
ance of its functions ;
when tho stomach is
at fault, and the whole
! system sutlers in tvon
sequence of one organ
—the Liver, — having
ceased to do its duty
For the diseases of that
j organ, one of the pro
1 prietors has made it
his study, iu a prac
tice of more than 2C
years, to find some re
medy w herewith to
counteract the many
, derangements towhich
‘ it is liable
To prove that this
remedy is at last
found, any person
' troubled with Liver
: | Complaint, iu any of its
; forms, has but to tryjal
j bottle, and conviction!
is certain.
j These Gums removen
! all morbid or had mat-1’
! ter from the system,
! applying in their
i place a healthy flow of'
! bile, invigorating thel
j stomach, causing food j!
I to digest well, purify
ing [the Flood, giving
| tone and health to the
i whole machinery, re
-1 moving the cause ol
I the disease^ —effecting
1a radical cure.
Bilious attacks are
i cured, and what is
J better, prevented by
J tiie occasional use of
i the liver luvigorator.
*■ One dose after eating
1 is sufficient to relieve
I the stomach and pre
vent the food from n
( sing and. souring.
I Only one dose taken
j before retiring, pre
1 1 vents Night in ire.
Only one dose taken
j at night, loosens tho
bowels gently, and
1 cures Costiveuess.
■ One doso taken after
each meal will euro
I Dyspepsia,
j I One dose of two tea
! Ispoonfnls will always
relieve Sick Headache,
i One bottle taken for
‘{female obstructions,
j I removes the cause of
i the disease, and makes
a perfect cure.
Only one dose imme
diately relieves Cholic,
while
One doso often re
peated is a sure cure
tor Cholera Morbus,
and a preventive ol
Cholera.
i Only one bottle id
‘ m. > w■ »* «.■-=« •«»■* S
| needed to throw out ot the Bystem the effects ol
I medicine after a long sickness,
j One bottle taken for .Taumiice removes all sal
! lowness or unnatural color from the skin.
One dose taken a short time l»o ore eating
! gives vigor to the appetite, and makes food di
-1 gest well.
j One dose often repeated cures Chronic Diar
rhoea in its worst forms, while Summer and
' J Bowel Complaints yield almost to the first dose,
i One or two doses cures attacks caused by
Worms in children, there is no surer, safer, or
speedier remedy in the world, as it never fails.
A lew bottles cures Dropsy, by exciting the
absorbents.
1 We take pleasure in recommending this modi
cine as a preventive for Fever aud Ague. Chill
Fever, and all Fevers of a Bilious Type. It ope
rates with certainty, and thousands are willing
to testiiy to its wonderful virtues.
All who use it are giving their unanimous tos
timony in its favor.
Mix Water in the mouth with the Invigorator.
and swallow both together,
i j The LIVER INVIGORATOR is a scientific Medi
cal Discovery, and is daily working cures, al
most too great to believe It cures as if by tna
gic, even the first dose giving benefit, and seldom
, more than one bottle is required to cure any kind
. of Liver complaint, from the worst Jaundice or
Dyspepsia, to a common Headache, all of which
are the result of a Diseased Liver.
