On Wed. neadsy she was visited by Dr. Gillette, who found three of her men sick with yellow fever. They were conveyed to the Marine Hospital, where one of them La* since died; the others are in a very bvstate. On investigation it was ascertained that the Competitor lett Swatow, China, for Havana, about the latter part of March with SOP co-dies on board A few days aflei leaving Bwatow a disease, either yellow fever or something strongly resembling it, broke out among the passengers, of which 171 coolies died. Most of the deaths occur ltd before reaching St. Helena, where the vessel stopped for water. The ship had no physic inn. The sufferings of the poor coolies are nsid to have been heartrending. Elsewhere will be found a full report. We give this morning a batch of interesting details of Mormon news from our special correspondent in Utah. These details are very minute, containing mnrh information relative to the conn try around the cities of the Saints, together with an account of the general state of affairs in Mormondom, the feeling among the people, the appetence of the women, the speeches of Brigham Young and Commissioner Powell, and the movements of the army of Utah.

The usual meeting of the Excise Commissioner* took place yesterday. Two applications for storekeepers' license were made, and the licenses were granted on condition that $30 be paid by each of the applicants. A complaint was made to the tioard by E. Falkner against Kelly A Co. on the corner of Grand and Goerck streets, for selling intoxicating liquor without license, and selling i on Bunda*.*.

Tbe transactions embraced about 7.200 bbde. and about 600 boxes, cloving at fully >?? advance. If we estimate the average value of the hog* heads at $100 each, and the boxee at about $*0 each, tbe value of tbe sales will amount to the turn of sbjut $788, 000.

Pinldtnlhl Aspirants. It is at ot.ee amusing and interesting to note tbe movements that have been start?* all over the country to bring prominently before tbe public this, that or tbe other patriot and statesman as a candidate for tbe Presidency. Not half of the term for which Ihe present incumbent of that office was elected baa expired, and yet there is hardly a Skate in tbe Union that has not bad one or more of its most distinguished men put forward for the succcesion. H may be that there is some importance attached to the advantage of befog ftn-t in the field; but -urelj the history of Presidential nominal low should tuffice to *bow the fullacy of such an idea, and should rather *uggeat the policy of preeerring alienee a* to expectant candidate*. Still, however. public opinion, ditrrgordful of such que* tionr of expediency, if making lUelf heard in advance of caucuses and convention*. The pre** everywhere throughout the country 1* die mming the claims and merits of the popular politicians of the respective localities and according to all appearance* these gentlemen, *bo are thus early in the Held, will be so completely disfigured I7 th?- injudiclou' handling of friend* and the ruder treatment of foea (hat there will 1-e nothing left oi their )*olitical fouling or reputation hy the time of the assembling of the Char It t ton C uvcution and of the other nominating conventions.

The find two have tain prominent, ever ?ince the la*t Cincinnati Conve ntion. for their undisguised design* upon tLe succession ; nnd though we have been infe.rmed that there i* a secret understanding l? liven tin1 tan to l< ml im li in tl>? hi. influence, a* circumstances may require, there is even behind that a determination on the part ot eat h to get the nomination for himself, if jtoaaible. What chance either of litem ha* to tc? hie ambition gratified. it is for the fuhne to determine. Present appearance* are decidedly unfavorable to both of them. It ie singular, ton, that they occupy almost identical position* in their respective sections. Wise stand* today just the same in the South aa Douirlas in the North?that Is. the ftdelity of each to his own s<-ction of the Union in more than suspected; and 1heir common infidelity to the democratic party, on the question of Kansas, is altogether too fresh and too glaring to Ik? overlooked when 'be rewards of party service come to be meted out. If Douglas ia stigmatized at the North by the party be darted a* well as by tho?o who arc always aflrigbt'd at the bugbear of Southern Bggresrlop. he is no less condemned at the ^outh by the moderate men, as well as by the tiHraists of that section ; and so he is likely to jive a practical illustration, in his own person, f the truth of the adage as to coming to tli? Hiouid between two stools. The regular disMpltnnrian* and velerans of the democratic party North will not be disposed to look leniently at his acts of insubordination: and lie frie ??il ?ing of the parly will hardly ra allow Ids squatter sovereignty doctrines nnd blsrndoratnsot of the Pred Hcott decision.

We fear that since he ''Little Giant" has been so indiscreet ss to give offence in ail qnarters, he will' hare a mighty slim show at the Charleston Convention, even if Lincoln does not aucceed in shelving him long before. Governor Wise, as we have said, ocoapiet a position in many respects analogous to that ol bis friend and rival, Douglas. Like the I attar, he has lost the confidence of his own section, has never bad the coufidcnce of the North, and is as much entitled to the epithet applied by the Charleston Mercury, of"an unrepentant and self-seeking renegade'1 as Douglas himself can fie supposed to be. The same fate evidently awaits them both?that of being shelved to g ether. IUquietcatm pace. So mnch for the two democratic aspirants whom wc have selected as types of a class rather than as having any very brilliant prospects fbr the succession. On the opposition side of the camj we have selected as similar types Senator Grit tendon, of Kentucky, and Wm. II. Seward, o this State. The former has deeply offended hh own section by his course on the Lecomptoi measure. aDd could never hope for any larg< support in the North, on account of his pro slavery sentiments and his repulsive Kqos Nothing connection. He may be, therefore considered as altogether out of Uie question. Ai to Win. H. Sew&id, his chances are equally frail nis abolitionism, of iteelf, is altogether of toe oflinsive a stamp to admit of his being nomi noted. Besides, in bis own State, where he ii best tnown, he is least trusted. It the country should ever hare the misfortune of seeing bin in the Presidential chair, it wonld be sure, a' the same tiiue, to see his administration com posed of or conirolled by the chiefs o the lobby interest, with such a man ai Tburlow Weed or Oraamus Benajah Matte son as prime vizier. No. no: that is altogether out of Uie question. Seward could hardly gel the support of a majority of delegates in his owl State; and there will be enough of interest! represented in the Republican Convention to cut him out there. Ohio will be watchful and ready to coalesce with the opponents of Seward In favor of Judge M'Lean or Stanton; Illinois will take advaniagc of the same state of feeling, nod be ready to coalesce in favor of Biasell; Pennsylvania will be no less on the alert in the interest of Cameron; nor will Massachusetts be behind in ousting him for the sake of Banks. We think, therefore, that without pretending to any ability to indicate who will be the no minces 01 me respective parties, it m&y oe tair ly BN-umtd that tbe choice or the democracy will cot fall on either Douglas or Wise, and that the choice of tbe republicans will not Tall on either Crittenden or Seward. Whatevei chance the Kentucky Senator may bare owing to tbe tuppoetd expediency or fair cess of giving the nomination to th< South, wc thick the New York Senator Las none whatever. These four knighU may, therefore, have their names stricken ofl Uie Ibis even thus early. Between this time and the uncting of the conventions two years hence, public opinion will have indicated through its mouthpiece, the press, who the most worthy contestants for the prize may be. One of tbe latest suggestions has been John B. Breckenridge for President, and ex-Governor Stymoui of New York, for Vice President. This and all the rest roust go through the crucible public opinion, for the developenunt and enunciation of which there is yet plenty ot time. No hurry, gentlemen?room enough for ail. Affairs rs Utah.?We publish this morning a scries of most interc"tiDg letters from our special correspondent in Utah. The Mormons are returning in large numl>ere to Salt Lake Ci*y. The array l ad passed through the city and taken np their quarters in camp at Cedar Valley, forty miles to the southwest of the capital. From the Uut or the speeches made by Brlgbam Young and other Mormon leaders during the temporary exile of their people at Provo, it is evident that considerable defection exists among tbe laity, and that a general sense of dcprewdon, *adnee? and wut of confidence In their caufe.^etvado* the ma* of the people. The Teace Commi*?ionerecomplain of the mode in which the proceeding of the conference bare *l?etn reported for the Dmrtt Xrtc*. It appears that speeches are put Into their mouth* which they jtever made, and the whole affair 1* faN-ly represented. The report* were mad 'by Mormon r* jvotlera, under the Influence of the Prophet; and a* Governor Camming. In that blundering spirit which *eem* to have characterized bla whole career in Utah, refused to permit a competent reporter who wa* not a Mormon, to be present, the Mormon Teraion of the conference is the only one on record. Mr. Camming ha* been heaping error upon error in hi* courre of conduct *lncc he went to Utah. Tie 1* evidently not the right man on the right place. Indeed, were It not for tLc action of Col. Kane and the presence of the army, he would never have got into Salt Lake City at all.

FRIDAY, JULY 30, 1856. r?blk StnUiMnt I* outti C?rall.*-JpN(b Senator Hammond, of South Carolina, bad recently the compliment of a public dinner glren in bit* honor at Beech bland, in that State. It appears to have beeD an al frt*co affair, for " e li-aru from the Churl* ston Mercury that ther.* was an assemblage of fifteen hundred persons on the occasion, o whom soine thi**e hundred were of the fair Hex. At this demonstration Senatv Hammond delivered a speech, a report of which will be found elrewhere in our oolumus to day. Tbifi rpeeeb, as coming from a Senator from South Caroline, la remarkable for its moderateDree of tone, and for the many sensible things? though not altogether unmixed with some things quite the revert*?which it contains; and it is , difficult to know which most to wonder at, the courage of the Senator in speaking thorn, or the agreeable spirit in wbich they seem to have been received by the audience. Mr. llammond, as was vtry natural, reviewed the important political questions ot the day, and gave his own views of them in an easy, independent, off-hand etjle. As to squatter sove 1 reignty he declared that its whole theory and scheme was a matter of disgust, and the Kansas Nebraska bill a delusion and deception from the beginning, and rotten with fraud. In these 1 views he will find a large majority of sympa tbiarre in the North. As to the disunion aeirtl1 meets cf his own State he did not see as inclined ' to give them any more coanteoance than he ' gave to the Kansas-Nebraska bill. The South, be said, uuder the present aspect of affairs, would have to remain in the Union To be sure, ' the parenthetical phrase " under the present as1 pect of affairs" is not very definite or intelU' gible, and may be interpreted to suit the views } of whoever undertakes to define it. The grounds on which alone he concedes the propriety ^ of a dissolution of the Union are?firH, the ? demoralization of the federal courts by making 1 the judiciary elective, and then the establish5 ment of offensive tariffs, or of a United States Bank, or the direct tampering with slaves. But ' as to diteolving the Union on any such ridi ' culous pretence as the refosal of Congress to ' give validity to the Lecompton constitution, he truiiruiy iguureo duuu ui iuc?, huu auts aui vvtru mention it in tbe list of grievances. But he does distinctly declare, that even if at the next Presidential election tbe North should by combination elect an abolitionist, the great body of tbe South would not. on that issue, go out of the Union; although on a repetition of the same offence, they might do so. Where was Keitt and the whole body of South Carolina chivalry when such sentiments were publicly declared by a Senator of the Palmetto State ! Here is an indirect invitation to more Northern aggressions; and yet not a dissentient voice and not a word of disapproval is heard from that respectable auditory. We must Infer from this that the ' yeomanry and the chivalry of South Carolina do not march under the same banner. But, further on Mr. Hammond takes still ' more extraordinary positions. The North, he said, was by no means wholly to blame for the present condition of the section*. M&Dy of their grievances took their rise at the South. Many false theories had originated there, and many others the South had udopted. The Baok of the United States had originated with tbe South, j and the tariff had its godfather there. As to i the agitation against slavery, no smaller men than Washington and JefTerson had set tbe evil 1 example. ' Let Kcitt and Boyce. and Miles and Bonham, and the other chevaliers of the Palmetto State. > rave und rant as much as they choose in favor of wresting Cuba from tbe Spaniards, of absorb1 ing Mexico, and of overrunning Central America with filibusters?as for him. he thought It | all wrong. He was opposed to any further annexation of territory, and wished the country to have nothing to do with Mexico or Central America?though if we wanted a Pacific route he would not object to seizing Tebuantepcc or Panama, with the right of way. Neither was he in favor of reopening the slave trade. The idea of doing so. while the South was in the Union, he conceived to be an impracticable, visionary project What benefit, he asked> was the South to dcrivo from increasing the area of slave territory?or what Southern man would place slaves in Kansas! The reporter does not make the Senator respond to these questions pnt to himself: bat tbe answer may be inferred from thewholu scope of the argument, und from a subsequent remark that the 8outh was now struggling to keep Texas arainst the inroads of Northern emigrants. Why. therefore. should the South go for Central America or Mexico! They wonted none of thoee vast region* now. but should rather sdilrithem selves to Uic devclopemeut of their own inter ual rtWBMi. It in really refreshing to read such a speech, delirrred l?y a South Carolina Senator in pretence of the chivalry and yeomanry of that State. And now what we want ta know la, whether the sentiments thus uttered by the lipi of Senator Hammond arc n fair exposition of | the views of the people: for If they are. theu all we hare to say Is, that K?-Ut wed all that pack of froth aod fury secessionist* are ootLing but consummate humbug*. A Pnornrt Ham No Honor in Him Own CorvTRT.?Some time since we felt called upon to notice In a commendatory spirit a speech delivered by JeflVison Davis at Portland. Me. We Ihoupht that the con?ervative, high toned national sentiments which It contained, proved that the abilitlss nnd statesmanlike qualities of ! the speaker bad bem entirely underrated by tbc count!y at large, and attributed that feeling to the fbet that while In poor Pii-vce's Cabinet he was stifled between the cru hing dogmatism of Marcy and the tortuous circumlocutions of Curbing. Dut it seems that that which won our praise provoked the rt-eentajenl of the Ore- ! ami-fury sec* ?*lonl*t* of the Pnutb. and the papers in that quarter have not been so flatteri*ig to Mr. Davis as we have been.

IlKATHltNUM AMO&'U XUK " UNCO PlOCli."? " Madam," raid John Randolph lo a lad/ who was very much exercised about the distressed Athenians, "the Greeks ore at your door.'' The* terse epigrMutnatis satire of the statesman of Koanoke is as true new as it was Are aud twenty years ago. So far as the spread of evangelical religion is couccrned, there is the widest field for home missions in those districts which are presumed to monopolize nearly all the pious stock that there U) in the market. Iu New England, where formerly a man could not vote for town officers unlets he was a professor of religion, the number ot backsliders, lukewarm Christiana and free thinkers is increasing to a fearful extent. We are told, in an official report to the General Association of Massachusetts, that twenty-five per centum of the population of New England never attend any church, and that there are in that section neatly a million and a half of practical heathens. Twentyeix towns in Massachusetts are ia such a benighted condition as to be altogether without that "stated preaching" which was so grateful to a celebrated politician of Sandy Hill. It happens to be within our knowledge that the same condition of things exists in Scotland, where infidelity, atheism, deism, and free thinking of all kinds are gradually sapping the foundations of the faith which Claverhoune's dragoons in vain endeavored to root up. The people of New England are not dissimilar to those of Scotland; many strong points of character, shrewdness, intelligence and firmness to the extreme verge, whether right or wrong, distinguish alike a Scotchman or Yankee. The spirit of inquiry, investigation, analysis and argument prevails alike In both peoples. This coustant sifting and eearching into abstract questions raises metaphysical questions which puzzle the most acute intellects, and the disputants drift from one extreme to another?from the extreme of ascetic Puritanism to that of infidelity. The Presbyterian Church, with its rigid discipline, its extreme dogmas, and its narrow tenets, imbues its believers with bigotry first and indiflerentiBm afterwards. The indifferent Christian is blown about to all points of the compass. He may, like many persons in New England, take un with the spiritual rann;rs. or the Mormons, or the Swedeuborgiaos, or the Irvingite*, or he may relapse into entire infidelity. Theodore Parker, once one of the thiaing lights of the Unitarian Church, has mounted a political hobby, and turned his pulpit into an arena for the display of Btutnp oratory. lie is regarded as little better than a heatheu by the church from which he has seceded. Brow neon has tried everything, from infidelity up to Holy Mother Church, in whose bosom he reets for the present. A celebrated historian, who once ministered at the Congregational altar in Boston, baa become aa Episcopalian, acd is, it is said, on the high road to papacy. When there leaders and teachers of the people fall away from the faith, what can be expected from the masses? No amount of revival excitement will keep them from running to the extreme of liberalism. However paradoxical it may appear, the finest fie'd for missionaries is found in the districts particularly distinguished for piety. The Ili.ixois Champions on the Same Stvmp.?Mr. Linooln. who expects to fill Mr. Douglas' seat in the Senate, has challenged bis competitor to stump the State with him. after the Southern fashion, where each cand'date addresses the people on the same day from the same rostrum. Mr. Douglas is a little afraid that the other democratic candidate may come iuto the arrangement and place the Little Giant between two fires?after the iashion of Maryatt's triangular duel. But being of an accommodating disposition, Mr. uougiaa win meei Mr. Litncoin at one prominent point in each Congressional district in the State, except the Second and Fourth, where Mr. Lincoin has already had the last word. This arrangement will doubtless be accepted by Mr. Lincoln, and the people will have an opportunity to hear the various questions of the day discusted by two orators of recognized ability. 4> When Greek joins Greek, then conies the tug of war."

Washington, July 29, 1868. The reported numlmr ni ?--???- <_ ? - -- UVQVUV lUUtOUD * Oregon and Washington Territories has been greatly exaggerated, as I hare already stated to yaa, and it is beginning to be felt here that the threatened war maj be avoided by the administration punning a prudent conne. Indian wan have previously originated in the avarice of a few individuals. who have designedly provoked the hostility of the'diflbrent tribes for their own selfish purposes. The profits to be derived from the maint&inance of a laige force of United Btates troops in our frontier stations has induced certain interested parties vary often to commit outrages on the Indians which ham provoked retaliation, and hence the many Indian wars which have cost the government millions of dollars and thonsands of lives. It is qnite probable that the existing difficulty, which in its present aspect looks dark and threatening enough, mpj be traceable to the same cause.. It has been ascertained irom a reliable source, that the whole' number of warriors of all tribes in the Territories of Oregon and Washington, east of the Cascade mountains, la J only 2,125, and this includes the old men who are ( not in a fighting condition. I send you a list of the different tribes, with the number ot warriors in each:?

The Ncz Percea, who, you will perceive, are the largest tribe, aud the Cayuses,exercise a great influence over all the others. Their advice is sought after by their brethren in all emergencies, and their will is law among the red men in the Territory. Thair feclings^towards our government have ulways been decidedly friendly, yet it appears that they were the most prominent in the affray with Col. Bteptoe. A peaceful approach to the leaders of these tribes, if promptly made, would, in all probability, avert the horrors of a protracted, bloody and costly Indian, war at the present time. Regret is expressed here that Colli as' splendid line of Bteamers are not running. There are applications from companies of other lines for contracts with the Post Office Department to carry the European mails, and the Department is becoming dissatisfied with the present uncertain state of things. Should Collins be disposed to run his line from Portland, Maine, to Liverpool, it is likely the Postmaster General would send the mails and certify to the service performed, and that probably the Secretary of the Navy upon snch certificate would authorize payment according to existing contracts?what says Mr. Collins to this ? General Lane has received information from Oregon that the Legislature just elected stands on joint ballot thirty nine democrats and eleven opposition. An election for United States Senators, in view of coming in as a StAte next winter, was to be held as soon as the Legislature met, on the fifth of July. The prominent candidates are General Lane, Judges Williams and Smith. The result in General Lane's case appears certain. The democrats had carried all the offices in the Territory. Frazer river gold discoveries were looked upon as calculated to benefit Oregon greatly. Migel, wM was expelled from Mexico for resisting officers In collecting the k*n. regrets the step he took, and it is said was about to give up under protest, as did the English aud others, but Mr. Forsyth wanting an extreme case screwed op the jeweller to the " sticking point." Migel has solicited a passport to return. The State Department granted it, and requested the Mexican Minister to countersign it. So Migel having martyred himself is aboat to return. The report of the fall of Zuloaga is not believed at the Mexican Iiegation. The frigate Sabine is preparing at New York to join the Brazil squadron as the flagship.
