23rd ^ ^ was nearly sick with A cold I met with the saints & preached
one hour from Jer 30 ch 21^st vers "And there Nobles shall be
of themselves And their Governor shall procede out of the midst of
them" After speaking of the fulfillment of prophecy in connexion
with the progress of the Church & Kingdom in the present
dispensation I read to them the following paragraph from the Epistle
of the Twelve recorded in the XI vol. No. 16, page 247 of the
Millennial Star, as follows "Monday March 12^th The election
came off to day and resulted in the unanimous choice of Brigham
Young as Governor, Willard Richards Secretary, N. K. Whitney
Treasurer, H C Kimball Chief Justice, John Tailor And
N. K. Whitney Associate Judges, Daniel H. Wells Attorney General
Horace Eldridge Marshall, Albert Carrington Assessor and collector
Joseph L Hewywood surveyor of Highways And the Bishops of the
several wards as magistrates" In one sens of the word I
had the fulfillment of my text before me. It is highly interest-
ing to see the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints
Progressing And continually fulfilling the Ancient prophecies
As recorded in the Bible & Book of Mormon. The late news
from the valley informs us that 15000 of the emigration after
gold have passed through the valley and 3000 have stoped to
winter in the valley and many have Joined the Church.
An Iron foundery is about to be esstablished in the valley &
workman in that Branch of business are loudly called for
from abroad. Crops and health are both good in the place
Addison Pratt is about to return to the Islands & take several
with him. Amasa Lyman has gone to the valley of the
Sacramento P. P. Pratt is expecting to go to South America.
The revolutions of the Nations of the Earth during the past
season have been interesting. The following is a synopsis
of the movements during the summer of [18]49. The Romans arose
in mass drove the Pope from his Throne & kingdom & he dHad to
seek protection in foreign countries. The President of France
Louis Napolian sent An army to Rome to subdue the people &
reinstate the Pope And after much hard fighting, they entered
Rome & took command of the city. The Hungarians arose &
proclaimed there Independance raised large Armies & would
have subdued Austria Had not Russia sent out her Mighty
Armies Against her And After many thousands of the Allied
Armies of Austria & Russia were slain by the Brave Hungarians they
the Hungarians were overpowerd, or Gen Georgey surrendered his
Armies & Louis Kossuth the President And main spring of Hungary
left the Nation & went to Turkey. Jermany has Also been in
