OVERLAND EM1cRATIoN.-We learn by
an intelligent gentleman from st. Joseph.
Missouri, formerl a citizen of Cleveland.
that there will be considerable overland
emigration this season-mostly Mormons
to the Salt Lake valley. aud families to
Oregon. He estimates the Mormons who
arc preparing to leave Council Bluffs and
vicinity for the Salt Lake at ten thousand
The Latter Day Saints make Council
Bluffs a sort Of halfway house in journey
ing to the promised land, stopping over
there and raising crop. and then giving
way to fresh hosts Of Mormon converts
from near and distant lands, of all persua-
sions. kindreIs. and tongues. The coun-
try around Council Bluffs is prairie. and
as the lands still belong to government.
and have not been put in market, the saints
take possession. and occupy where and as
long as they please. When about to
emigrate further west. they dispose of their
improvements to newcomers at cheap
rates. the motto among the brethren being
to ''live and let live.''
Quite number Of families from Illinois
and other western States are preparing to
make the overland journey to Oregon this
season and we notice that one of the
newly-appointed officers of that Territory
"a resident of acknowledgements to
take out considerable Of colony with him,
the families being principally fro" Ohio.
Some eighty or more persons will compose
the CleaveLn'1d HerGld.

WORLDS FAIR.-The London correspon-
dent of the N. Y. Tribune says:
Hyde Park, March &c, 1851.
1t IS raining in torrents. In fact, the
weather since the commencement of this
month has been wet, gloomy. and msera-
BILE; still the work at the Palace progresses.
Considerable Inconvenience has been ex-
perienced from leakaees in parts of the
root where the attempted water-proofing
process has not been perfected; and many
of the papers now openly state the opinion
that the building. from the contraction and
expansion of such an immense pile of glass.
iron. wood, and putty. cannot be rendered
impervious to the rain; or safe from injury
and breakage by the heat Of the summer
sun. 1t will doubtless he found necessary
to cover the entire roof with some water
proofed material.
The French and other nations are deco
rating their respective portions of space
handsomely; and it is to be regretted that
placed at the disposal of its commissioner
a suitable fund to enable him to do so. 1t
is intended to lay down an electric tele-
graph round the building. with dial plate
at each entrance, that due notice may be

the recovery Of anything which may be

lodging house keepers. omnibus and cab
proprietors, are in happy frame Of mind;
and there cannot be a doubt that very
heavy amount of money will be dissemina-
ted during this great Worlds Peace Con-
vention.
The shop windows of London arc always
tempting bats for the stranger, from the
general custom Of dealers in exposing so
many of their wares. and tlcketing them
with prices which. if not really low, at
least purport to be. 1t is amusing now to
see how the present mania is seized hold
Of by shopkeepers; and exhibition needles.

exhibition almost everything-meet the
eye Of the rambler in all directions.
There is no great influx Of strangers here
yet. unless we except thousands of the poor
Irish. who come over in the hope Of getting
a living in a placefwhich cannot keep from
starvation all its own paupers.

Garrison. the president Of the ''American
Anti-slavery Society,"" has issued buIle-
tin informing its members that the annual
meeting OF that society. to take place in the
ensuing month. will be held at Syracuse,
New York. Heretofore, he says. these
meetings have been uniformly held in the
city Of New York, but that now ssno meet
'ns-house or hall in that great city can be
procured. either for the love Of liberty or
for gold. for the accommodation Of the So
ciety: Neither in the adjacent city Of
Brooklyn can any suitable building be OBJ
