MOVEMENTS OF THE MoRMoNs.-The Mormon
expedition is now encamped about ten miles from
Keosauqua, Iowa, and about nfy miles from Nauvoo.
From their encampmen empty wagons are daily return
ing Nauvoo and persons have returned or foot
The notorious o. P. Rockwell and Jack Rsdding have
returned. On their way, being asked why they came
back they said they were after sono scslps The Nor

send back empty wagons for more provisions and also
send back their bullies, Rockwell and Reddlhg, 10

There have bean large number Of births in the Nor
