The Utah War is ended. We believe there is no longer reason to doubt the fact that Gov. Cum-ming peaceably entered Salt Lake City on the 1st ult., and that a considerable portion of the Mor-mons had already left, or were leaving, for some point in the South-West. We may fairly presume that Brigham Young and his chief counselors were in the advance of this movement, and that neither marshal nor troops will be able to arrest them. We shall be disappointed if the Mormons do not make their way out of the territories of the Union, and found a new "Zion," either in Sonora, Lower California, or in some of the isles of the Pacific. If such be their purpose, we trust they will be allowed to consummate it without further molesta-tion on the part of our Government. This is the third distinct settlement, within our National boundaries, from which the Mormons have been driven by force. If they are now willing to leave the country, why should they be obstructed or harassed? If they have sinned, have they no suffered? If they are willing to leave, let depart in peace.
We trust orders will forthwith be dispatch from Washington by telegraph to arrest the patch of provision-trains from Fort Leavenwor westward. The corn, the cattle, the horses, th wagons, collected in or near that Fort for the Uta Army, present and prospective, are all needed an will do good service in Kansas and Nebraska t tunes; now let whatever is not needed be sold in small lots to the highest bidder, so that settlers may have a chance of benefit. It wo be absurd to send forward another man or ox bushel of grain, if this news is to be credited. We trust, too, that the Volunteer Regiments ct will be held in abeyance by the President. He hs no shadow of need of those regiments now, while h s Secretary of the Treasury will inform him, if applied to, that the public coffers can ill spare the Three or Four Millions per annum which they must cost, if created. We trust it will not be necessary to repeal the act; let that stand for use in an emer-gency; but no such emergency now exists, while the Treasury is in a galloping consumption. It should be favored so far as possible.
—When the full truth becomes known, we be-lieve it will be found that great credit is due Col. Thomas L. Kane for this auspicious termina-tion of the Mormon broil. He went out to Utah with the consent, indeed, of the President, but prompted by his own generous heart, animated by an earnest desire to prevent a needless and there-fore culpable effusion of human blood. By his past services to and experiences with the Mormons, he had won the confidence of their leaders, while knowledge of the purposes and preparations of the Government enabled him to convince those lead that resistance on their part was hopeless. We wish he had gone to Utah some months earlier but his bold and self-sacrificing mission has doubt leas been undertaken in season to save millions to the Treasury and avert from our Nation the stain of a fruitless slaughter of thousands and the devas-tation of their homes. "Blessed are the peac-"makers.''
