Mormons, mostly young men, have crossed the
Mississippi, and are now far advanced on their
way to California. They are to form the avanf

early, to provide for those who shall follow. This is
an incidentn religious history, that will, undoubt-

the Mahometans. Anew empire is to be founded
in California; and being thrown there. upon their
