The Virginia Chronicle says that a aloon keeper in Reno has this lo gend behind his bar: "In God we trust ! Anybody else, cash." We are informed that Mr. M.

People who live on the bench were willing to acknowledge yesterday when they went home to dinner, that even the rose of healthful location may have its thorn of inconvenience. This glorious weather has been productive of atmospheric beauties. Yesterday a deeply colored haze surrounded the western mountains causing them to appear like a magnificent sappharine band.

I can't tell how many arms were of taken; should think one-thiraw me ooys them were loaued. carry ten or twelve arms out of the schoolhouse alter the athur was over, Burton did not dismount till he got back to camp; he was engaged in giving orders about getting the men in order. He told me to go to camp and fix up some provisions for the women and children; 1 did so, we left together. Have known Mr. Burton over twenty years,intimately; never heard him swear in my life. I have been on Indian campaigns with him. I may have heard him say "Damn," or something like that,but can't say I have. Have always looked upon him as being a peaceable, orderly man. He has nearly always been an officer. Never saw him manifest any violence. He has a general reputation for being a peaceable and quiet m:.n, and not given to violence. At the time of the shooting I think there were four horsemen with horses and from ten to twenty men in the fort. Not more than twenty. They were near the arms, between them and the Morrisites. Think all the men were armed that were with him. Some of the men went in from behind the breastwork. Some of them were armed, but not all of them behind the battery .because some had to work it. " then sworn: From the 12th to the 16th of June, 1862, I was here. About that time I went with Burton and his posse, and remained at the Morrisite camp during the fight with the Morrisite people. On Sunday I was at the camp on the south of the place till evening; when I went with Burton to the west side it was getting late. When we got to the end of the lane I noticed a man coining towards us with a white flag. He came out through the lane. Don't know him; he asked Burton what he wanted, and he was told tn unconditional surrender; and Burton told him that he wanted them to stack their arms to the left of the and the people were to stand on the other side. After we return was school-hous- Think all that n went in with Burton were armed. I was commissary and quartermaster. Can't tell how many men I issued rations to; perhaps 100; from 50 to 100, that came from Salt Lake; think there were about 200 in the whole command. Those who came from the other settlements brought their school-house- .

After some were stacked we rode in; when we got in a little way, I was ordered to go back anil order ten men to come in and take charge of the arms. I went and gave the order. I went ahead ot the men; 1 arrived just as Burton did; Burton passed around the schoolhouse and the people were formed in a kind of half moon to the south and southeast of the schoolhouse. There was a large crowd of Morrisite people there, The men brought to guard the arms stood near them and the Morusites, The first thing I heard was from a man named Parsons, who stood to Burton's left, lie asked Burton what he wanted, and Burton said he first wauted certain men, but stated also that he then wanted every man there. Morris was allowed to speak to the people if he would be brief and say nothing of a treasonable na ture.

Some one also said to send in ten men more. I started from the old fort wall, and whm we got nsar the breastwork we were joined by eight or ten men on foot. W ent near the schoolhouse; and about the time I got there Burton rode between usand the schoolhouse. The first words were spoken by John Parsons, who asked what was requireu oi mm. Burton had a paper in his hand, and I believe read it. He said he wanted five persons, and all others who had taken up arms against the law. Parsons asked if Morris could speak to the people, and Burton said he could if he would be brief and not incite the people to further resistance. Morris then stepped out and said: "All that are willing to follow me and my 6d "follow," and there was a general rush. By that time I had. got near the south of the Morris, when he spoke, might have turned to his people, but I could not say. They all cried, "Aye, aye!" "To arms!" and made a break in the direction of the arms, others making for the schoolhouse, and I started to go to the door, but a Morrisite got there before I did and grabbed a gun from the inside of the door. I grabbed him, wrenched the gun from him and dragged him aside. Burton called to Morris to halt, and finally said "Stop them" and fired at Morris. He might have shot twice. Didn't see any one fall at the first fire. They all fired quick and close together. Think about eight or ten shots were fired, occupying not more than three or four seconds. No more shots were then fired Four perby Burton or his party-sons fell. At that moment I thought they had got us into a snap. I thought we were going to have a "hell of a time there in a minute." I went to the schoolhouse because the people rushed there, and 1 thought it was the strongest place in the camp. There were arms there. Did'nt see Burton dismount. He was arranging trie men before going to five or tiring flag down, receiving no reply; as near as I can remember he said, "Good God, are these people going to compel me to use force; I hope they will not," seeming quite agitated; have known him thirty years; have been with him on Indian scouts and in various trying places, and his character has always been considered good and his disposition peaceable. I went into the fort immediately after the surrender; did not see Morris killed; I was the first to enter the fort the after the surrender, bring morning sent by Gen. Burton to see if there wore any wounded or suffering; I saw three or four dead bodies, two being women.

After making anothwt abling us to assure our friends all the above articles at aggravating remark to him he agairr told me to dry up, and 1 thought it prudent to do so; a man named Hewitt told me at one time in a whisper PRICES WHICH DEFY COMPETITION that they were going to kill us; heard some of the preaching that the hypocrites were to be killed by the faithful; the hypocrites and prisoners were to be drawn up in aline, and Fhyatclans' Prescription Carefully Compounded. the faithful were to stand faciug ' them in three lines; if the first line refused to kill the hypocrites, the SON. & y second were to kill those who refirst and sec fused: and if both the ond lines refused to do this the third line was to kill them all; they took an oath alsot that they would obey all the revelations.
