Mormon Emigrants from Europe,

The ship Siddons, which arrived at this
port day or two ago from Liverpool, had
on board 424 Mormon emigrants, destined,
as the marks upon their baggage indicated,
for salt Lake City," They were composed
of British families, and all appeared well
dressed healthy aud intelligent. The wo-
men, especially, had that fine, robust, ros,
British look about them Of which we hear So
much. They were to proceed Immediately

frontier, and there start overland for their
new home in the valley OF the Salt Lake,
where the leaders of the Mormons seem fast
gathering populous and furnishing commu-
nifty, mostly accumulated from the European
hive of nations. ns.--PhiLaaelphia Penn.

send you this voluntary testimonial TO the great
value OF "CartsT's Spanish Mirtxrs,n FOR that
almost incurabie disease Scrotula.
Without being disposed or deeming It necessary
to 90 into the particulars OF the case, can saw
that the astonishing results that have been pro-
duced by the use OF that medicine a member
OF my own family, and under my own observation
and supertntendence, after the skill OF the best
physicians had been exhausted and all the usual
remedies had failed, fully justify me In recon-
mending its use to all who may be suffering from
that dreadful rnalady
do not mean to say that It is adapted to all
constitutions, that 1t viii afford the same relief
In all cases; for Of course, | can know nothing
about that-but Of what have seen Of the effects,
would not hesitate to use IT, in any and every
case Of Scrofuia, with persons for whom felt an
interest, or over whom / could exercise influence
or control. Respectfully, yours,
