ARRIVAL AND LATEST NEWS.—Elder Levi Stewart and two sons, and Elder Isaac Bowman and Mrs. McMinn arrived on the 16th inst.; they left Leavenworth on the afternoon of July 11.



Br. Bowman informs us that Elder Jesse B. Martin's wagon company was traveling on the North side of the Platte, and was about 36 miles below Laramie on the 3d of this month. They had lost 11 head of cattle by a stampede, but were pursuing their journey at the rate of 15 miles a day. Elder Charles R. Dana, David W. Rogers and James Carrigan were in Elder Martin's company.



Elder William Walker's freight train was at Deer Creek on the 8th inst., and Elder Israel Evans' hand-cart company would arrive there that evening. Elder Benjamin Ashby is with Elder Evans. There are 30 hand-carts, 2 teams and some 150 persons in the company; they are very lively and making good progress.



The Texas company, under charge of Elder Homer Duncan, was passed at Ash Hollow on the 29th of July. Their animals were in good order and all were getting along well. Elders Williams and John M. Moody are in that company.



Col. Hoffman, the Commandant at Fort Laramie, treated brs. Stewart and Bowman with marked kindness and courtesy.



Br. Bowman states that the crops in many parts of the States are very poor, and that there is but little grass between Fort Bridger and the Missouri river. Also that myriads of grasshoppers infest the route, and are making their way East.



The 2500 hundred troops ordered to Utah had not started so late as the 11th of July. Clippings from the papers brought by brs. Stewart and Bowman, will appear in the News' as fast as space will permit.

Wednesday. May 22nd. 1850.



All things being prepared beforehand I took my family and Started for the Valley. They consisted of; Myself, Margaret, Charles Carrol, Roswell Root, and George Carloss. Susan and her two boys: Martin and Moroni. My Son in-law Henry Kingsley and Horace Rockwell and their wives; each had a team and waggon. I had altogether three waggons, twenty six head of cattle: and some Sheep which we were driving through for Bro. Demill. Bro. Perry and Hulet and their families were in company. On Sunday 26th they made choice of me to lead them.



Nothing of importance transpired while we were traveling to Kanesville. We arrived there on the 1st. day of June; and after a day or two, we moved down to near Bethlehem: where we found Horace. Elizabeth. Henry and Mariett. waiting for us. Horace &amp; his wife had been living in Missourie for some years; and Henry &amp; Mariett left Pisgah a few days before I did &amp; went by Savannah to obtain flour.



7th. This day Elder Hyde Organized a com. [company] of one hundred waggons. He Appointed James Pace for Capt. of the hundred. Bro. [blank space] Sessions Capt of the first; and David Bennett Capt. of the Second fifty.



8th. Organized the tens. I was chosen Capt. of the 2d. Ten in Bro. Bennets fifty



11th. Crossed the Missourie River.



13th. Began to move on our way to the Valley: rolled twelve miles. this evening Bro. Luther Warner was taken with Cholera.



14th. Bro. Bennets com. [company] all moved on this day except Bro. Stephen Perrys Ten: they remained to see how it would go with Bro. Warner. Just as we were nearly ready to roll; Margaret steped up to me and said "Pa, I believe I will go and see Bro. Warner a moment before I leave." I Said Margaret, I do wish you would not go. She said that she thought she could tell him something that would help him. She finally went; and shortly after noon She complained of sickness at the stomach[.] I administered to her, and she felt better; but soon appeared to be worse again; so that by the time we had got into camp; it was evident that Cholera with all its attendant horrors had fastened its iron grasp upon her. We administered every kindness in our power; but notwithstanding she swooned, was gone near two minutes: She seemed much elated when she came to her self again: and said "Pa, I have been there." where have you been Margaret? said I. "With the Saints, and the place was glorious, but I have a work to do." She continued to cramp for <s>two</s> three, or four hours, and then Sunk into a drowsiness. A little before day break, the brethren administered to her: almost directly, symptoms of immediate dissolution appeared. and by day break. She was a lifeless corps[e]. We laid her out in all her Temple clothing: Made a coffin of packing boxes, and gave her a decent burial. Her age was forty three years, two months, and fifteen days. The whole distance from the Missourie river was twenty four miles. Bro. Warner died on the fourteenth. Seven died altogethe[r] before we were rid of that plauge [plague] for a few days.



17th. We commenced to move on again; but buried Bro. Keyes at noon.



18th. This morning, in addition to our other troubles Henry missed his horses: there is no doubt but the Indians Stole them: it was all the team that he had.



26th. Sister Elizabeth Mallory, a dear sister of Margarets, was taken with Cholera.



27th. She died soon after sun rise. Thus in the Short space of twelve days, two sisters fell victims by the hand of the destroyer. Now more united in their lives, was not long seperated by death. Having recieved and held firm the faith of the everlasting gospel: been lively members in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and having always maintained a good report, been true friends, Kind sisters affectionate Mothers, and tender wives



And having died in peace; we have an assurance that their Spirits mingle with those of the just; and that they will come forth in the morning of the first resurrection to enjoy that rest which has been promised to the faithful.



We buried four this day. I kept the journal of the fifty as well as my private journal: this was by the request of Capt. Bennet, and his Com.



Nothing of much importance transpired after this untill we reached the City of the Great Salt Lake which was on the 23rd. of Sept.

Monday June 1st. About four this afternoon a part of the waggan Company Started for The Valley: the Cattle most of them were unaccostamed to the yoke and acted accordingly, one axeltree broke, one waggan turned over; another one treed: the “labord ox” at times “on the Stabbourd [stubborn] Side,” &c &c: however the most of us went four Miles and Camped. On the next day Elder Little Settled with the brethren and on Wednesday 3rd. he organised us; calling Jesse B. Martin to be our Captain: I was Captain of the first Ten. Bro. James Ca[r]rigan Capt. of the Seccond; and Bro. Oliver Workman Capt. of the third Ten. Bro. John Pymm Clerk. and Bro David Curtis Serjeant of the Guard.
There were thirty one waggans.
After we were organised we rolled four miles.
Wednesday 24th. We arrived at Florence; where we tarried untill Sunday 28th. about two O’ clock we left Florence.
Monday 29th. We camped near the Elk Horn: there were eighteen waggans with families; Appostates on their way to the States and other countries; and of all the black hearted, foul mouthed, d____d Appostates; those Seemed to me to be about the worst: I felt that I had about as soon fight them as to eat; for besides berating the best men in the world; they had no decency. I was informed that they left the Valley Secretly for fear of being Murdered. I felt that if they had been away from Settlements that they would not have treated us as they did, with impunity. 
On the evening of Sunday 12th of July our cattle took a stampede: the moving cause of which was; I believe in allowing an ox to go away with the yoke hanging to his neck: the Buffalo were near; and this other circumstance terrified the Cattle; the consequence of which was that we lost nine head of our cattle; and hindered more than two days.
On the 15th we traveled; and in the evening the cattle took another stampede and the result of that was the loss of seven head more. We laid by on the 16th and hunted for the lost cattle; but did not find those seven. It was then decided to have some of those brethren who had lost cattle return to the Settlements.
Friday 17th. We yoked up and about twenty teames were hitched &lt;on&gt; to as many waggons; and a little misunderstanding occured just as we were about to break up the currell [corral]: I left my team and went to the other side of the currell, where they had not yet hitched up; to see what the difficulty was; and lucky for me that I did; for all of a sudden every horned creature took a stampede: all struck for the opening laying prostrate everry person that was in their path: two persons were so badly hurt that they died in a few hours: others very much hurt and one little girl had her thigh bone broke. This circumstance, or the sight of it; with all its attendant horrors was the worst looking sight that I ever saw; except when I gazed upon the George Washington [ship] when she was on fire!!!
Saturday 18th. We yoked and hitched on a few teams at a time and started off in this way; and we had no further trouble with them untill Thursday 30th. Just as my Ten had currelled and partly unhitched; and the rest of the Company were coming in to order our cattle took another stampede; but as they were so much scattered it was not general; nevertheless several of the teams run; knocking down two or three of the Sisters and running over them; but the wheels passing each side of them: they were not seriously injured.
Friday 31st. This evening Bro. Martin made a motion that I take the lead every day, as he had finally come to the conclusion that his hurried drives would not do; for the teams were failing very fast.
Monday 3d August. Some teams stampeded today while traveling no damage was done.
On the 5th. Also some teams bolted out while traveling, and run; but as I was in the lead; and was constantly on the watch I prevented my team from joining in the movement and thereby no doubt saved much trouble. We took the North side of the Platt[e] all of the way; but I am of the opinion that the South Side is the best above Larimie [Laramie].
Friday 14th. The Hand Cart Company joined us today at the upper crossing of the Platt[e]. Bro. Evans had taken the South Side of the Platt at Larimie and had lingered several days in order to join us.
Tuesday 18th We met Bro. S[amuel]. W. Richards, and Some others. Bro Samuel was going to England on business for the Church. About this time a report reached us that the Government had started an expedition to the valley of U. S. Troops and Gentile Officers (Governor Judges &amp;c.) to compell the Saints to submit to them and to hang President Young and punish polygamists &amp;c.
About the 26th and 27th we met Several companys of our brethren from the Valley going to be eye witnesses of what Uncle Sams Troops was about.
Wednesday September 2d. The Hand Cart Company left us to–day for they could out–travel the ox teams. After they &lt;had&gt; gone we had only one Captain <s>left</s> except the Captains of Tens. However I see by my daily journal that we came up with them a gain at Bridger and then we had plenty of Captains and long drives.
Saturday 12th. Drove thirteen miles and arrived safe in Salt Lake City.
