Cry Of Alarm In England.

LONDON, October 16. The st. James
Gazette refers to the Washington Congress
of American Republics, and sounds the cry
Of alarm to arouse the British government
from their lethargy at the threat to British
interests involved in the Congress. 1t be-
hOoves England, says the Gazette, to protect
her interests in South America, as it would
be suicidal quietly to allow the South Amer
lean nations to form a close commercial I'M
ion with the United States. Such union
could only result in the exclusion Of British
manufactures to very great extent from the
markets which they now enjoy.

Utah's Recruiting Ground.

WASHINGTON, October 16.-Gerhard Gade,
United States Consul to Christiania, has
sent the following dispatch to the State De-
partment about Mormons in Norway:
"At the semi-annual conference, lately
held in this city by the Mormon residents, it
was reported that the aggregate number Of
Mormons in Norway is at present 740,120 of
whom belong to their clergy Of the latter.
Il are elders residing in Utah, but working
here as missionaries for short time. The
Scandinavian mission is presided over by a
Dane named Fieldsted. During the past
four months 36 persons were baptized and &c,
including children, emigrated to Utah. Last
year 70 emigrated, and more will emigrate
this year. Passage money. from Norwegians
already settled in Utah is in most cases in
ducing their relatives here to follow them to
America. In this country the Mormons have
five stations, viz: in Christiania, where they
count 1868 members, in the province of Here
marken, in Tuorikstad, Frederikshold, Arni-
dal, Bergen, Drontheim and Tromsoe: Their
first station was at Brevig, established in
1850 Since that time about 5000 Norwegians
have emigrated to Utah."
